A NECESSARY
CLEARANCE!

You can easily understand that in
business like ours, it's quite i'm
possible to tell beforehand how
ksnany suits and overcoats we shall
sell; if we could do it, we would
buy more than enough; a clothing
tore without any clothes in it, sold
but clean, would be funny store.
We always have a surplus; must
nave; and we always, about this
ime Of the winter, try to dispose of
this unsold surplus by quoting spe-
.cial low prices on it.
We're going TO sell what we have
left Of Hart Schaffner & Marx,
clothes at prices thatare very muchI
less than their real value.
Our $3.50, $4,000 and $500 Suits and
Overcoats will be sold at $22.5O.
Our $40, 22.5o and $25 Suits and Over
coats will be sold at $16.5o.
Our $3.50 and 1850 Suits and Overcoats
we are now selling at $3.50.

Friends Have Alibi
for AllegedMurderer
Man Arrested for Crime in Arkansas

it Was Committed.

SIOUX FALLS. S. D.. July 1s.-(Special)
Information has reached the state to the
effect that a man named ]. e. Langston,
Trip county and taken TO Arkansas on
the charge OF murder, will not be per-
mitted to furnish a bond and must re-
main in jail until his trial in october.
Langston appeared in South Dakota some
months ago and took up his residence on
a homestead In the ceded portion of the
Rosebud Indian reservation in Trip coun-
ty he having been one Of those who was
fortunate enough to draw a homestead
there in the government land lottery. The
detectives who after a long search finally
traced him to South Dakota. and secured
his arrest asserted that the murder he is
charged with committing was committed
about two years ago.
LangstOn's friends in Trip county de-
clare that they have made an investiga-
to which is alleged TO have developed the
fact that the murder was committed on
March OF this year. IL this proves to
be the case, Langston's friends in South
Dakota sand ready to aid him in estsb-
fishing an alibi
Langston, they declare, was In Trip
county several weeks before that date, and
they have evidence as TO exactly where ne
was on March s on that date he was in
that night-which was the night they say
.he murder was committed in Arkansas
for which Langston is under arrest.
