ONLY TWO WEEKS MORE.
DAY NIGHT, AUG. 81. AT
= O'CLOCK.

1t looks now very much like the 10000 votes will
not be cast and although Of the conditions of the
Contest was that no trips would be given unless
least 10000 Votes were cast have decided
in the event the 10000 votes not cast, to give
One Trip to the candidate in either of the dis
ricts, receiving the largest vote OF if the
10000 are cast three candidates will go but in the
event 10000 not cast then the candidate receiv
ing the highest number of votes will get trip.
SO don't be discouraged because you think 60, 900
will not be cast, but get to work once someone
is sure to win the trip.

We Cut the
Price

1t is hardly necessary for us to

question, to make it plain that YOU

vailed throughout the Spring lust

terchangable reports show this to
be the most disastrous season ever
known in the clothing trade.
Weeks ago all of YOU who read the
daily papers noticed the largest
concerns in the cities were COM
PEELED to resort to cut price sales TO
stimulate buying and move goods
We RETAINED from this as LONG As
possible, as it is wholly unprotita-
bic when you sell nothing but
standard goods. But after a care
ful examination we found our
stock was many thousand dollars
too large for the time of year Not
deeming it advisable to hold these
goods to another year we have re-
sorted to PRICE, the Greatest

Will be cut. Everything marked

PRESIDENT AS A RIDER.
Tells About His Jumpers and the
Courses Near Washington.

Theodore Roosevelt, in the October Scribuer
Formerly We could ride across country
In any direction around Washington; and
almost as soon as we left the beautiful
tree-shaded streets Of the city we were
in the real country. But as Washington
grows. It naturally-and to me most re-
grettably-becomes less and less like its
former glorihed village self; and wire
fencing has destpyed our old cross-coun-
try rides. Fortunately. there are now
many delightful bride trails in Rock
Creek Park and we have fixed up a
number Of good jumps at suitable places
"a stone wall, a water jump bank with
a ditch. two OF three post-and-rails, about
four feet high, and some still brush hur-
dies, one of five feet seven inches. The
last. which is the only formidable jump
was put up 10 please two sporting mem
bers Of the administration Bacon and
Meyer Both Of them school their horses
over II, and my two elder boys, ard
Fitzhugh Lee, my cavalry aid, also
school my horses over It. On one of my
horses, Roswell, have gone over it my
self and as I weigh 200 pounds without
my saddle l think that the jump. with
such a weight in cold blood. should be
credited to Roswell for Righteousness.
Roswell Is a bay gelding. Audrey a
black mare; they are Virginia horses. IN
the spring OF 1907 / had photographs
taken Of them going over the various
jumps. Roswell is a fine jumper, and
usually goes at his jumps in a spirit Of
matter-of-fact enjoyment But he now
and then shows queer kinks in his tenn
per. On one Of these occasions he began
by wishing to rush his jumps, and by
trying to go over the wings instead Of
the jumps themselves. He fought hard
for his head. and as it happened that the
best picture we got of him in the air
was at this particular time. it gives a
wrong idea of his ordinary behavior, and
also. I sincerely trust, a wrong idea Of
my hands. Generally he takes his jumps
like a gentleman

CURE FOR MATRIMONIAL ILLS.

novelist, the secret OF his success. He
used 10 order the husband away to one

more there was a remarkable increase

The only thing has been that they
could not stand seeing each other so

The astonishing feature Of the whole

THE CLERKSHIPS.
Another Day Passed Without Relief
For Anxius Souls.

The committees OF the house and
council which have been trying to reach
an agreement on the number of clerks
whose salaries shall be paid out of
the territorial funds had not been able
to reach an agreement though several
candidates for positions were present
ready to sieze upon openings which
might suddenly be presented.
The house is inclined to liberality OF
action. It is more so for the reason
that the amicable adjustment of the
speakership contest involved more po-
sitions than had originally been con-
templated and some of which had been
tentatively given out. The house mem
bers, that is many of them, feel them
selves in an awkward position. They
would like TO discharge their obiga-
tions within reasonable limits; they
would like to give out at least half
Of the positions which have been prom
Used.
1t was enormously reported some
time ago before the assembling of the
legislature that the governor would not
permit so many clerks as would get in
each others way and impede legisla-
ton as they had done in other years.
The governor has never said what he
would do or would not do in such a
case but he has signified that the whole
matter rests with the legislature.
He has, however, made a suggestion
and the council seems disposed to act
upon 1t. That is that attaches should
be employed as they are needed; they
should be stenographers capable OF do
ing what they are supposed to 90
Hitherto the capability of clerks has
not been permitted to interfere. The
only qualifications deemed worthy of
consideration were, first the proper pull
and the ability to sign a voucher for
the pay.
But the committee was still laboring
over the matter and il was thought
that some kind of an agreement would
be reached before daylight.

THE COMMITTEES.

The legislative committees in neither
house have been announced yet but
those of the council Will probably be
given out today. Those of the assembly
will require a little longer time in the
making up.
Speaker Bailey yesterday requested
the members to indicate TO nm the
committees on which they desired tc
serve. He might not in all cases be
said he would do so as nearly as pos
sible.

mittees have been selected and 1t Is
stated that Mr.. KroOk will head tbs

The dealings were apparently in pro-
