Bradshaw Clothing Co.'S big closing out sale is going cn with a rush. Everything in the store must go to make room for Poli's new theatre Stock. fixtures. show cases. nothing is to be removed to their new East Main street store if low prices will close it out. Many merchants are clamoring to buy the Bradshaw clothing stock but having started on this big closing out sale they wish to see it through and give the public the benefit of the tremendous low prices rather than the merchants. Remember that the cloth ing bargains in this sale may never be duplicated in this or any other city for years to come, if ever. and it will be well for every man and boy to get stocked up not only for winter but for next spring. This firm has a fine stock of spring and summer goods all so which are selling at a mere song compared to their former values. Don't delay. buy that fall or spring suit or overcoat now at 1-2 to 2-3 off on the prices in many instances All who could not be waited on last Saturday on account of the crush will now find plenty of courteous statesmen who will do all to make everything pleasant and satisfactory. Beautiful calendars given away free with every suit or ove-coat purchase. Bradshaw Clothing Co.,, 12e4 Main street, Bridgeport, Conn.

Of course one reason is. that there are so many desirable and useful arti- cles to be found that will just suit to the ''1S' so many friends and members of the family. but another reason that draws people frresistibly to this store is their liberal selling plan. the giving of credit to all who ask for it. Other stores give credit when they know the people. but the purchases must be paid for in thirty days in a lump sum, or else credit is extended when a cash deposit Is made-but Caesar Misch. Inc, does none of these things-just pick out what you wish. take it home and then pay for it in small weekly or monthly balances. No wonder is it why people prefer to trade there, But it is a fact that the holiday stocks are so desirable that a very great number of people who are buying for cash made this store their shopping headquarters. This would not be pos sible if the values throughout were not so extraordinarily good.

Ups and Downs Of Wool Market.

George M. Miles went into a remin.
iscent mood for q few moments with q
Miles City Independent man just after
q we'll known local sheepman began to
chuckle over the high price of wool
this year.
"Talking about your 244.cent wool,'
said Mr.. Miles, "brines me back to the
year 1881. when I received 81 cents q
pound for my product. l shipped II
to Harding, Martin & Caverly OF
Boston," just then he slipped from
his inside pocket . statement from the
wool firm giving all of the details as
to bis clips, covering q period OF sev.
eral years. In 1882 be received 81
cents for his clip. and in 1883, &c
cents.
"And. by the way" continued Mr..
Miles, "the first sheep were brought
into Custer county in 1876. They were
herded here from Red Bluff, CAL, by
an old man named Burgeiss, who had
wintered them one season near Virginia
City. He was on his way east with
them but fearing an Indian outbreak,
he did not reach the Tongue river un-
the fall of 1876. I purchased the band
from him and marketed my first wool
that year, which was the first consign-
ment ever shipped out of Custer coun.
ty."
In 1881 Mr.. Miles shipped fifteen
bags which went down the river BY
boat to Sioux Falls, S. D., where il
was loaded onto cars and shipped to
Boston. ''There is quite a contras,
in the volume of the wool business
now and then,' said Mr.. Miles.
From fifteen bags in 1881 to approx.
imateIy 5000, 900 pounds in 1908 is
quite a jump"
About the lowest price of wool on
record was when q. B. Wiley, cashier
OF the First National bank, cent q
shipment on consignment to Boston
and received the munifceut sum of u
cents q pound. "That was in 1894 after
the panic, and I was glad to get it,
he added.

water Saturday at a depth Of 1873 feet,
and there was sufficient flow to make
the water rise "a feet in the casing.
