Here Are Graceful OvcrCOdtS
For Men, Young Men and Boys.

THERE'S everything in the way an
overcoat behaves under different
conditions. Maybe you've never
thought of it in just this way.
Different makers of overcoats act
differently under similar conditions,
and it's more often the coat thsn the
person wearing it.
Most overcoats are not made right,
The collar sags and there are
unsightly folds down the back and
front. Throw back the coat, and
the whole side punches up into
an ugly wad.
These R. w. and Ederheimer Stein
Overcoats we are selling, are differ
ent. They hang gracefully all the
way down from the shoulders. The
fronts are even, full and roomy but
moulded to stay in shape. The col
lars fit snug about the neck. The
arm holes are comfortable. Buttoned
up or open, they hang as if made
for you.
We have them in the new weaves
and new style, grey or black.

have come to be considered an auth
ority on the subject of the feasibility
of electric roads. The opinion of the
firm if favorable to road has proved
of considerable value in aiding in the
sale of its bonds.
The Proposed Line.
The proposed Rock Island and PEG.
ria electric interurban will run in the
same general line as the Peoria branch
of the Rock Island road 1t is under
stood that the power plant will be To-
Gated at Galva in return for certain
concessions granted by that city.
Andover is considerably interested in
the proposed project and several rep
resentatives from that place were at
the meeting this afternoon.
The promoters of the road expect to
secure free access to both this city and
Peoria in return for making these the
terminal points and besides this it is
likely that the business men of both
cities will be asked to buy a share of
the bonds.
Surveyors mt Work.
There are a number of surveyors in
the city who have been at work for
some time in the railroads yards and
along the river in the west end of the
city and it is generally believed thai
they are working either in the inter

number of stories are circulating con-
corning the incidents surrounding
Father Johns death at Cronstadt It
is reported that large sums of money
disappeared from his house during his
closing hours, and that at the very end
an abbess held the unconscious priests
| hand and traced his signature on a
will bequeathing his property to her
institution. After his death great
part of the money contributed by his
followers throughout Russia and a
large collection of unset gems were
scattered aimiessly throughout the
rooms of his residence. .

Is per cent less than the year of 1907
Most of the loss in shipping was in
the line of building material The
fact that the local sawmills had closed
Iof car loads of lumber which were
sent to other places from here, and
the building done in the city during
the year was somewhat less than the
building of the year before, conse-
|quently there were fewer carloads of
lumber and other building material
shipped here than in former years.
The percentage of falling off in build
ing material will reach fully % per
cent
Coal business Light, Too.
Coal. too, did not move as freely as
usual, and about 25 per cent of the
usual coal business failed to appear.
This is accounted for by the late win
ter. Until the latter part of Decem-
Der there was little or no demand for
Codi, anu most uedleTS has eHouSh
stored to supply their few demands.
The fact that the factories were closed
for so long during the year also hurt
the coal business.
With the coming of winter, however,
and the fact that the election of presi-
dent is all over with, business has be-
gun to return to its usual mark, and it
is hoped before the new year is out 1t
will be above the normal of former
years
