A MoneYIess Monarch.

The credit of Servia in Europe
stands at the present moment at the
lowest ebb. Wherever King Peter
turns to obtain money with which TO
establish the stability Of his throne
he is unable to obtain it.
Driven to desperation, a representa-
tive of the Servian Government called
at the branch Office in Vienna or the
Gresham Life Insurance Company
with a view to obtaining loan on
the security Of the kings life. his eI'
forts, however, were unsuccessful.
The unfortunate representative OF
the discredited monarch had made
the rounds not only Of all the banks
in Vienna. but also the private mil"
lionaire money lenders, in a vain en-
deayor to obtain a loan and the fall
ure of his last effort to obtain $780,
900 on the frail pledge of the king S
life was the last straw.
It will be remembered that King
Peter sent Prince Ar5ene to Paris,
hoping that his influence would obtain
for him monetary aid; but the banks
refused to accede to his request, and
he was obliged to appeal without sue
cess, to some weli-known miliionaires.

QUIT BUSINESS SALE.
The Continental Has Been Crowded
Every Day Since the Doors Opened.

Every Day Since the announcement
that Mr.. Fisher would close out the
Continental and that he would go to
New York to live, the people of To-
peka, and for miles around have
shown their interest by crowding the
store from the very day the doors
opened, and they were compelled to
close the doors several times, being
unable to wait on the crowd. People
who were in the store the first day
have been back buying more goods,
telling their friends what real values
for SO little money the Continental was
actually giving. 1t is really a shame
to sacrifice goods the way they are
doing but it must be done as Mr.. Fish
er has to be in New York at a certain
time and the only way to do it is to
make astounding low prices on every
thing in the store, SO that every Gus
toner will tell his neighbor. This Mr..
Fisher has done and will continue to
do until the doors close on the Con-
tinental in Topeka forever. Never be-
fore in the history of Topeka and new
'er again will you have the opportunity
that confronts you now to buy cloth
ing, furnishings goods, ETC., ont of tho
best stock in the city at your own
price.
