"WEDNESDAY morning we began the great
Wv est sale of mems Clothing ever held in the
Northwest Wednesday and Thursday
the number of sales was enormous; Friday was
not quite as heavy on account of being the day be-
fore Saturday. but Saturday surpassed all records.
The amount of clothing sold was phenomenal.
This week will undoubtedly amount to greater fig
ures than before We shall continue the sale until
our stock is pretty well depleted AS yet it is still
great that it seems to be hardly touched by the
selling.
You know our policy in very seldom having
sale We carry only the highest priced merchan
disc Our store controls the entire distribution of
all the Rogers Peet and Kensington clothing sold in
the Northwest. Anyone who has lived in New
York knows what this means A thirty or forty
dollar Kensngton suit has finer tailoring, better
style and more perfect finish than any sixty or
eighty dollar custom suit that you possibly buy.
The hand-moulded collar the shapely shoulders are
the most exquisite specimens of high grade tailor
ing.
We have arranged our entire stock of mems
clothing in two groups. The first on the second
floor, including those that range up to and includ
ing the $2250 grade we have marked at the sale
price of $14.50.
In the second group, on the first floor we will
give you your choice of any suit, overcoat or crav
enette in the house that is priced up to $5000an
there are many $500 and $4,000 ones-at the sale
price of $24.50.
All plain blues and blacks in serges and unfn-
ished worsteds are included in this sale Full
dress Prince Alberts and Inverness overcoats not
included.
We positively cannot promise any definite time
for delivering these garments Our tailoring de-
partment must have all the time needed. Every
piece of clothing will have to take its regular turn.
When man is saving anywhere up to $4,000 on
each purchase he certainly can be patient in wait
ing to have the goods delivered. No goods charged
or exchanged III

For. the past three weeks Buffalo Bill
has been exhibiting in Madison Square
Garden, New York city. to the largest
crowds known in the history Of that
vast building.
The battle of Summit Springs will be
the chief Indian scene this year, and there
viii be an added novelty in the Great
Train Hold-up' in which a practical
locomotive and train of cars is held
Up in true Western fashion. Gen. r.

ennial encampment Of that organizat ton
will meet In the home OF the chairman.
Capt. J. walter Mitchell. this afternoon.
A program, subject to change. win be

July II, when the encampment begins,
the executive committee will hold a

teenth street and Pennsylvania avenue.
President Roosevelt has taken an ac-
tive interest IN the affairs Of the Army
and Navy Union. He viii probably be
asked 10 make an address. attend the
banquet. or review the veterans during
the encampment. President Roosevelt is
a member OF one Of the garrisons Of the
union. At Norfolk last year he made
an address to members Of the union. and
while returning from Panama some
months ago he attended q meeting Of
the garrison aboard ship.

CLERKS IN ARMS
OVER TWO HOURS
ADDED WORK
Immense Business Being
Done in Money
Orders.

Two hours additional work each day
instead OF one. is the lot which has be-
fallen the 100 clerks in the cher inspect
ing division of the Auditor of the Post
Office department. The announcement in
The Times that an order had been is
sued increasing the hours OF the en-
ployes brought forth several communal
cations from the apparently hapless vie
Tins, some OF whom appear to have by
no means become Teconciled to the new
order Of things.
I'VE are working two hours oyer time,
instead of one. however" writes one
clerk We now come to work at S, in
stead OF in the forenoon. and remain
until $50. instead Of 4:30 in the after
noon, two hours additional in all.
Please let us have all the glory due us.
one hour in the morning might be no
hardship. but-two per day.
Another calls attention to the fact that
I'VE are now required TO work two
more hours than the balance of the
office. Our duties are onerous, as each
monthly statement of the different post
masters issues and repayments OF
money orders have to be carefully re-
added and corrected, and each inspec-
tor is responsible for the accuracy OF
the check work assigned to him and is
expected TO perfect 5000 transactions per
day"
This correspondent of The Times does
not agree fully with the statement made
by the officials yesterday. and published
in The Times. in explanation of the in
creased hours that the work was far
behind. owing to the past quarter being
a very heavy one.
Chief of the inspecting division, Ben
nett A. Allen, who issued the extra
time order this week, reiterated this
morning the statement made by Auditor
Tinme yesterday that the overtime work
was required on account of the inn
mense business done in money orders
all over the country for the past quar-
ter, repeating his estimate that the work
would be caught up and the old hours
restored within the next three weeks.
a Times reporter was this morning
carried through the division and shown
the accumulation of work and the
method by which the money orders are
checked at the rate of about 5,O000 600 per
month, each one of which comes first
through the chief inspecting division.
That there were a few dissatisfied
clerks was admitted by the officials, but
1t was stated that the department was
unable TO make any allowance for over
time under the civil service rules, and
the only relief in sight was the early
disposal Of the accumulated money
orders.
The clerks, however, insist that they
have been presented with a very ''sour
lemon" in the guise Of long hours. no
increased pay. cold breakfast and dinner.
and the daily sight of several hundred
other departmental clerks filing in to
work an hour later than the inspecting
division. and filing out an hour sooner.

few minutes late, Engineer Swanson
remarked he was going 20 make up lost
time, md VIC sailed cut Of the yards in
hurry. Both of US noticed a gang Of
boys making a demonstration and point
ing at the engine. but boys are etern-
ally up 10 some devihnent, and as we
could see nothing wrong. we paid nc
attention 70 them. We were soon hitting
up a m!le-a-minute clip. and had gone
about six miles when we came across 2
arms and pointed 10 the engine. and ap-
peared so alarmed that we decided there
must be something on the pilot.
Hanging on For Dear Life.
Il started out along the running board
clinging hard 10 the rod. for the old
engine was swaying and pitching like
broncho. When reached the front
OF the boiler. my blood turned cold and
my hair stood up. There was that kid
hanging on for dear life. his feet on the
bottom beam and his face toward the
engine. He saw me, and / believe the
little cuss grinned. but his face was 81
dirty from the dusty roadbed, I couldn't
tell
Il was afraid to signal for brakes for
fear the sudden stop would throw hin
on, so ] motioned to slow down. and
climbing down over the pilot I grabbed
Bennie and held on, and I never felt
happier that when I got a good hold on
that youngster. When the train stopped
we put the happy boy in the cab and
went on to Fort Atkinson. and from
there sent him back home. teIegraphing
