in stock the most fashionable and per-
feet fitting wearables. but to guard the
interests of their patrons and the pub

Every mans suit will be packed in

With every child's suit there will be
a cap or some toy.
In every box containing a pair of
shoes will be found a pair of fine hose.
With every hat a swell tie.

to "plow any more because he had
to go away" Thomas Cole, brother
of one who is missing, waited for

FRANK HEMpRIlL Will
PROBABLY MAKE GOOD

Although Frank Hemphill lived
for three years in Milwaukee, he is
trict abstainer. Yet he helped to
make the town famous by playing
good ball for Joe Cantillon's team.
Hemphill is now with the Chicago
Americans and is regarded as a
fixture in one of the daisy patches,
unless Jimmie Callahan should
change his mind and return to the
game, but this seems a remote pos
sibility, as Callahan is going to try
his city league scheme for one sea-
son at least.
Hemphill is a fast outfielder and
a heavy sticker. Captain Jones be-
lieves he may acceptably fill Gala
