lie is quiet yet, a busy, cautious
and self-contained business mar
who does not seem to care for any
notoriety. But naturally he too
has attracted attention His affa-
BILE and agreeable manner, his en-
ergy and originality and the rapid
ity with which he goes into the
miuutest detail show that he under
stands his business as few men do,
and it is natural that a concern
with such representative men, as
their Mr.. Leeser cannot help but
make the reputation they have
made she entire country over, to-
day being the largest les-organi-
cation in the United States.
With such expert talent and the
Dixie's" past reputation to back
them this truly phenomenal sale was
made possible, and (when we say it. we
mean every business man in Starkville)
it has helped fhe entire town wonderful
ly. Never was business so brisk, not in
years has Starkville seen such activity.
In every branch people are overrun
with business, while complaints from
neighboring towns show that business
there is just as dull as it was here before
the opening of the sale; and truly, no
terms can be used strong enough to ad-
equately express the cleverness and
complete success with which the Dixie's
sale was engineered. Due credit must
be given to the untiring efforts and
faithful services tof the large force of
salespeople which has been employed to
accommodate the public and which con-
sists OF our best known and most re-
specled ladies and gentlemen and list

in the gray evening and finally had
to return home without having
been able to get even near the en-
trance. But the next morning
they were there again, some with
better luck, while others still did not
gain their object, nevertheless un-
discouraged they tried again, un-
til their efforts were crowned with
success.
And in this manner the great
sale continues and is still keeping
up, it has been in progress now for
over eight days, but the people are
flocking there with uudiminished
enthusiasm, laying in supply of
Dry Goods, clothing, and other
, useful articles for a whole lifetime
it seems. They are enthused, nay,
excited over the great slaughter of
goods, and the sale, which had
been advertised to be of sixteen
days duration will probably be dis
continued sooner, for at the rate
the stock is going the supply will
be exhausted long before this
time.
Messrs. l.. & H. A. Kleban Ger.
tainly have secured and employed
the right concern to engineer and
manage this huge Undertaking for
them. Mr.. Arthur Lesser, on
whose shoulders the supervision
and management of the entire sale
rests has been in StarKville for the
past three weeks supervising, adj
vertising and preparing the sale
with whim, energy and originali-
ty that for itself would assure sue
cess in any undertaking. He rep
resents the New YORK and st Louis
consolidated Salvage Company of
st. Louis which by no means is a
strange concern to us for they have
handled sales for various retailers
here during the past years, and al
though vastly different from each
other in every particular, each one
of these sales can easily be distin-
guished. Their original advertis-
ing matter unique, new and diff
ferent every time) up-to-date and
practical selling methods and ideas
make them stand out prominently
before all other sales. The abso-
Lutte and perfect fairness with
which they are carried out, salts
flying all concerned, the merchant
and more SO the customer.

ly an undertaking of rare impor-
tance on his hands, came here un-

THE "DIXIE'S"
GREAT SALE.
THE MOST TALKED OF EVENT
in STARKVILLE.
Immense Crowds Keep More than 65
Workers Busy. New York and
St. Louis Consolidated Sal
wage Co. in Charge.

Last week the TINES failed to
mention one of the most talked of
events that has transpired in
Starkville for many years, and in
its way, the like of which was never
seen before in the towns history
This is the great sale Of the Dixie
Bargain House, which for the past
] week or two has been the talk OF
the town and entire county-and
continues to be the topic OF the
day in restaurants. at lunches,
at homes, at receptions, on the
streets, everywhere wherever one
finds crowdof people conversing,
the theme is sure to be the Dix
les SALE" and while court is in
session, even the somber court
house resounds with the echoes of
THIS enormous enterprise.
But after all, it should not be
Provocative of surprise that this
sale should meet with such cor
dal reception. Original, unique
and glowingly termed advertise
ments had for days ahead apprlsed
the public for miles around OF this
commercial transaction, and 1t
must be conceded that never be-
fore in the history Of Starkville,
Or Of any other part of Eastern
Mississippi for that matter, has
anything been advertised more in
diligently and systt M stically, and
The people have testified TO the val
ne Of this character Of advertising
Wit the most surprising result.
On the app1iinted opening day,
Friday. November 5th, the trains
could hardly accommodate the

crowd of people tnat poured into
this city, while the country roads
presented a eritable procession of
vehicles, people on horseback and
pedestriaus-all coming to the
Dixie's sale. "
Oktibbeha, Choctaw, Winston,
Noxubee. Lowndes, Monroe, Clay,
and Webster counties, all were rep
resented. The crowd was truly
cosmopolitan, many people coming
from the country and equally as
many from our larger competitive
towns, Columbus, Chester, Louis
vile, West Point. Alderman,
people who had not been
seen in Starkville for twenty and
thirty years, all were brought
hither and long before the open
ing hour Of the sale, S:45 a. m. a
dense crowd gathered, blocking
the entire sidewalk and filing
main street for an entire block,
stopping all traffic. With such
crowds even the authorities were
unable to cope, and after several
futile efforts to control the masses
the City Marshall had signs tackled
up, commanding the people to
move on. But that is all he could
accomplish and even, if reluctantly
he had to close his eyes to the dis
regard of his authority, the crowds
continued to swell and Increase
each person striving for a point of
vantage, so as to be able to get in
to the store.
Finally the doors of the Dixie
were thrown open to the eager
masses and the people actually
fought to be the first admitted !;
but alas, although the most spa
cious storeroom in Starkville, con-
sisting as it does OF two immense
floors, the building proved entirely
too small to accommodate even a
small portion of the anxious and
impatient bargain seekers. and tn
doors had to be closed immediate
ly, So as not to endanger life and
limbOf those inside.
An emergency exit had been pro-
vided and only through this pre-
caution was it possible to control
the masses. As soan as advisable
new crowds were admitted and it
was amusing to watch these in
stances, everybody clamored for
admittance, (and not one tenth
could be admitted). Men and wo-
men, many with their babes in
their arms. stood in the street from
the early morning hours until late
