brought into the field the rival which
the Baltimore and Ohio so long ex

Cut rates on pianoel You have
heard of cut prices on groceries,
but cut prices on pianos,-how is it
possible you ask. That is just it.
Before such a thing could be effect
ed there must have been a combin-
alton of very unusual conditions.
In the first place it means buy
ing in large notwithstanding out
of the small way of doing business.
1t means the cutting out of every
useless and unnecessary expense.
1t means the shipment of pianos
without boxes In special cars which
saves big sums on freight charges.
Then it means tbs selling of pi-
amos so excellent and satisfactory
that the public demands them.
We have accomplished just these
things. We buy tor the largest
and busiest stores on the Pacific
Coast, in Portland, Astoria, Salem

New York, O.t. 21.-Mentally
deranged since the death of her hus-
band, year ago, one of the oldest
clockmakers in the city, Mrs. Car
oline Decher, 40 years of age, to-
day undressed her son Joseph, 13
years old, put him to bed, turned
on the gas, pulled down the shades
at the windows, and knelt by the
side of the bed and awaited death.
Her home was at the rear of the
fourth floor of an apartment house

Two hours later her son, Bernard,
after pounding on the door Of the
apartment, on returning home for
luncheon from store in the neigh.
borhood, where he is employed,
burst In the door and found his
mother dead, stretched out on the
floor by the side Of the bed. His
little brother was also dead. By
the side of her dead son the nother
had placed the certificate of her first
communion and confession, issued
in Germany in 1878; and in his
hand she had placed Catholic
picture bearing colored picture of
ST. Matthews, which bore the fol-
lowing quotation:
"He that shall teach shall be
called great in the kingdom OF
heaven. Blessed Albertus Magnus.' y

The discovery made by DR.. Day
has created widespread interest on

cial importance can only be esti-
maed by the results which are

the public has known nothing, and
it was lifted yesterday when the
secretary was told by President
Roose evelt to collect the legal duty

back to this country by Miss Alice
Roosevelt. The total duty is ex-
pected to reach pea,ly $780,
The daughter of the president has
received during her trip to the Phil

many pretty and some quite valua-
BILE presents. Some of the Gus TENS
officers suggested Miss Roosevelt
ought TO be allowed to bring the
valuables in duty free, inasmuch as
she was trea' ed with all the honors
of princess and did much to .ce-
ment friendship between the Unit
ed S ates and foreign countries.
The belongings of crowned heads,
of royalty and diplomats are always
admitted free of duty into the Unit
ed states.
Secretary Shaw received sugges-
tions until he was almost sick. The
presents are probably worth $1oo, 200
and if the usual rate of duty was
imposed it would costMiss Roosevelt

the young woman is understood tc

his burden to the president and
told him about it.
There is only one thing TO do,

"Dear Emily: I have taken
Joseph. You and Bernard can take
care of yourselves. 1 am at fault.

the mother bribed the little fellow
with the cake to undress and go to
bed and that che waited until be

the bodies of their mother and
brother. The policemen in charge
had to lit them from the bodies.
