BUSIEST SPOT IN TOWN!
Hundreds of Fine Suits and Over
coats at Half Price.

Never in the history Of the clothing
business in Washington have such ex-
traordinary values in fine garments been
distributed. and no more opportune mo-
ment could be chosen by the enterprising
proprietor Of the Mans Store D. ]. Kauf-
man, when the price of food sturrs and
other necessaries of life are soaring high,
to give a proof Of his interest in the well
fare Of his patrons by offering the finest
handmade suits and OvercOats at low
prices hitherto unknown. This, too. right
IN the height Of the winter season-Just
when the people can make the best use
of a good suit or overcoat.
This great sale embraces not few odds
and ends, but hundreds Of the finest coats
and suts-al hand-tailored-in the best
materials and most stylish designs. The
writer. after pushing a way through the
throngs attending the sale. was really
astonished at the magnificent quality OF
the garments offered. and at the ridicu-
lousy low figures at which they were be-
ing sold. In addition to fine Mans Store
made Sack Suits and Overcoats in almost
endless variety, there were included on
the bargain tables all the small lots OF
Tuxedo Coats and Vests, Fine Black Silk
faced Double-breasted Frock Coats and
Vests. and all Of those Stylish English
Walking Suits in fine fancy mixtures-all
offered without reserve at half price-and
half price at D. J. Kaufman's means half
price, as everybody in Washington knows.
II means for instance. that you get
$50 Suit for SIS or a $50 Overcoat for S15-
that IS you get both Suit and an Over
coat for what one would usually cost;
SIS Suits and Overcoats for $780, and so
on through the stock-you get two gar
ments for the price Of one. and whether
you buy clothing here at half price or
regular price you are always protected
by the guarantee of Moneys worth or
money back"

HOME GROWN MELONS
 ARE 0N THE MARKET

There were two loads-wagon loads of ripe watermelons brought to Mesa yesterday and sold to the local mer- chants. The melons were grown one load on the Ed. Lewis ranch by Mir Lewis and the other load by R. Van Meter. the well known gardener liv- ing northeast of town. The variety was that of the Kleckley Sweet
 Ripe watermelOns have been in evil -dence for several days, and a few have been reported as changing hands for a money consideration, but those yester- day were the first to be seen in abund- ance at the stores and were retailed at cents per pound, an average weight being between fifteen and twenty pounds.
 It is not the purpose of this article to say just who has produced the earliest melons of the season any more than it would be for to mention the woman who has the most beautiful children or the gentleman having the largest feet. AS a matter of fact the ranchers are deserving of credit for producing the early melons, but to single out one individual as being a few days earlier than another is a trifle beyond the jurisdiction of a news gatherer

.P|NEA|R HAS STOOD
 AN IMPORTANT TEST

B. L. Core who has been in charge of a force of men employed by Mir. De Priest on the contract piece of road work extending over two miles and a half nearest the Pineair resort, arrived in Mesa yesterday and was wearing a coat. The real test of a man coming to the Salt river valley in the summer time is to first observe whether he is wearing coat or not In the event that shirtsleeves are absent the chances are that he has just arrived from the north or at least some place where it is cool.
 However. when asked the question, How was the temperature at Pineair Sunday and Monday" he replied: T did not notice the heat at all The men worked on a hillside entirely away from any shade and l did not hear a complaint concerning the heat. Un- fortunately there has been no ther- mometer at Pineair so that we might have a record, but MT. Clement, the owner of the Reavis ranch, brought one up Tuesday, and when We left there Thursday forenoon it registered 72 degrees"

POPULAR LECTURER AT OPERA
 HOUSE TONIGHT

Bob" Smith. the popular southern lecturer will be present this evening at the Mesa opera house and enter tain the people of Mesa with one of his mirth- -pathos producing addresses. The lecture will be under the auspices of the senior class of the Mesa high school. However. whether the lecture is under the auspices of the high school body or an ordinary lecture bureau the evening will be one worth while and should not be passed up by any one who is susceptible of enter tainment by d gifted orator.
 Bob Smith comes to Mesa very highly recommended. The press, the uplpit and the lecture platform have all joined in expressing themselves as of the opinion that The Messenger of Mirth" is one of the most pleasing takers before the public today. The man has that power attributed to per sonal magnetism to hold his audiences and to create laughter or tears at his own will.
