WE EXCHANGE
RECORDS

Bring us your old disc records that
you have grown tired of (either CO.
lumbia or Nictor), and we will eX-
change them for the new Improved
Columbia Disc Records. We Will al
low you 80 cents for your 10-inch
record and other sizes in proportion.
The new improved Columbia Records
are of elegant workmanship and are
a decided advancement in the art of
record making. They have full,
sweet tone, and owing to the manner
in which they are made they have Il
less scratching tone; the needle seems
to run smoother on the record. We
also wish to introduce to your notice
the new Grand Opera Sound Box,
which is designed to Obviate the
scratch of the needle and at the same
time retain the full volume of tone.
We will exchange the new Grand

CROP CONDITIONS OVER
STATE FOR PAST WEEK

Scattered showers, mostly of light
character occurred the latter part of
the week, in portions of the central
and northern districts; in the south
ern district drought conditions con-
tinue in many localities, and vegeta-
ton is suffering for moisture. The
temperature has been slightly below
normal-too cool the first part of the
week, a condition of the fall the last
week, but warming up considerably
the latter part. Fall blowing has been
retarded in many portions of the
southern district on account of the
hard, dry condition of the ground. but
elsewhere the soil is soft and friable,
and considerable progress has been
made. Some seeding of wheat and
rye has been done.
While the nights have been rather
cool for rapid growth, corn has made
fair Advancement, and the weather
conditions have been generally favor
able. Some fields are matured and
safe from frost. \ considerable per-
ton of the crop is ripening and filing
out well. Many correspondents re-
port that the crop will be safe from
injury in three weeks.
The threshing or oats is practically
finished. In the northern district some
damage has ensued from rain.
Pastures. except in portions of the
southern. district. are in good condi-
ticn. Glover huIIing is yielding salts
factory results. Some timothy mead
ows have been seeded. Broom corn
harvest is in progress with fair out
put.
Plums of good quality are plentiful.
The outlook for apples is unchanged;
a light crop Of Indifferent quality is
in sight. Sweet potatoes are prOmis-
ing; Irish potatoes are being harvest
ed, with yield probably below average.

Cf the leading local dealers.
The minimum price of anthracite
WAS $3.50 per ton during the panic
last winter Twice that amount was
paid by some parties. Others were
unable to get Il supply at any cost,
and were obliged to burn soft coal in
their furnaces.
The experience of last year has
been an eye-Cpener to people gener-
ally" continued the dealer. land few
having the means have neglected to
provide for the cold weather They
are not going to get caught. The re-
suit has been that never in the his
tory of the city have the coal dealers
done such a summer business. especial
~ in anthracite coal. My winter orders
have been coming in since April. Nine
dollars per ton is the prevailing price,
so cents per ton having been tackled
onto the price in the last month.
No Further Advance
II do not look for further advance
in this grade of fuel, but that is no
indication that there is likely to be a
decline. There are some people who
think so. But | want to assure them
that they are wrong. | have talked
with the operators, and they tell me
we are getting coal as cheap now as
we will at any time during the coming
winter season.
'Since Aug. l there has been an adj
vance to the dealers of 25 cents per
ton On Springfield coal, but as yet we
have not raised the price on the con-
sumner. Presently we will have to do
so. .hCwever. Coal mined in the coun-

Decatur, ILL.,, Sept. 10.-C. l.. Cab
bert, the man who committed suicide
in Galesburg last week and who was.
charged with the killing of Bert
Whitcsides, was known in Decatur
Mrs. Gabbert, wife of the man who
committed suicide. is known here
She is living at sos East Cerro Gordo
street and has been there for some
time. Mrs. Gabbert was asked about
her husband, the man who committed
suicide. She said that Gabbert work
ed here as carpenter for about four
weeks. She came here about week
after July 4.
July II {. L. Gabbert packed his
grip and said he was going to the
country to work on barn. That vas
the last time Mrs. Gabbert saw him.
July - b. \. Whtesides, the young
man who is thought to have been
murdered by Gabbert, showed up in
Decatur. He at once went to the
place on Cerro Gordo streets where
the Gabberts were living and he was
with them there for a few days.
July Is Whitesidcs disappeared from
the house on Cerro Gordo street. He
and in a short time she made up her
mind that Whitesides and Gabbert
had gone together.
May Have Killed In Self Defense.
Mrs. Gabbert is still doubtful that
her husband killed Whitesides. She
says that if Gabbert did kill the
young man if was done i'm self-de-
Tense. She mentions the fact that
Whitesides had said to her repeatedly
that he did NOT intend to associate
again with his uncle, c. l.. Gabbert,
unless he had Il gun with him. Mrs.
Gabbert asked Whitesides what he
wanted with a gun. He replied that
he was afraid of Gabbert and repeat
eddy made threats that he would kill
him.
Mrs. Gabbert says. there was no
reason why Whitesides should have
been afraid of his uncle, her husband.
Gabbert had never made any threats
nor did lie have any ill-feeling toward
Whitesides. She says that innumera-
BILE times Whitesides made threats
against the life of Gabbert. These
came with such frequency that after
a time she got to pay little attention
to them.
Mrs. Gabbert expects to go to Gales
burg today. She may go from there
to Rock Island, and will endeavor. if
possible, to learn more about the kill
ing of Whitesides and the suicide of
her husband.
The Gabberts lived in Ramsey a
year before Mr.. Gabbert came to De-
catur. Previous to that time they
lived two years in Bloomington.
Mrs. Gabbert says that on the morn
ing that Whitesides left the house on
East Cerro Gordo street he threaten
ed her life, though that was not the
first time. She says that he was al
ways making threats and his DISPOSE
ton was an ugly one.
