The affair Il directly traceable to
the shooting OF a strikebreaker In

did the shooting IL believed to have
thrown his revolver into a vacant lot
where II was found by the Biddle girl
while at play. There was pile OF
sand In the lot. Late yesterday the
two boys, Marian Biddle and ten-year-
old Josephine Kennedy were playing
when the two boys ran away. The
girls went In search OF them and a
few minutes later pistol shot was
heard. The Britton boy, with blood
streaming down his face from wound
| In his head. ran to his home. He
gasped out that Marian had shot him
and collapsed. The Kennedy boy was
| lying I'm the street. At the hospital
two wounds were found In his neck
where the bullet had entered and
passed out, lodging In the Britton
boys head.
The two girls were arrested and
although they denied having had the
revolver, they told conflicting stories
The Biddle girl, however, admitted
seeing the weapon lying In the vacant
lot, and she was sent to the Childrens
society to await the action OF the
coroner.

To the February
Furniture Sale

These great sem-annual events Of the Crowley
Miner Store are becoming recognized more and
more as powerful factor in the furniture bust
ness of this city. Gradually, during the past two
years, the news of what these sales are doing has
spread among the thousands of homes, until now
February and August-are the two great Fur
niture-buying months of the year.
M5 600 WORTH OF THE VERY
BEST STANDARD FURNITURE
brought here from the foremost furniture-makers
of the entire United States makes this by far the
largest event in the furniture history of this city
WHAT IS THE AVERAGE SAVING TO BE
OBTAINED2
To bring all the offerings in this vast assemb-
lage under one level of discount, we should say
that were you to pick out furniture to the extent
of 500, at regular prices, that you would pay
about $40 for it--striking an average saving of
80 per cent.
Think what that means to the young couple who
are just about to begin housekeeping and expect
to invest $500 or more.
Saturday is good day'to come and look around.

Notice TO All Local Jeff AGENTS.

ME- are compelled to reduce commissions of
local agents to thirty cents on the dollar,
and again ask the agents, under no circum-
stances, to take less than the full price Where
both the Magazine and the Weekly jefferson
ian are put to the same subscriber at the same
time, the price to the subscriber henceforth
will be $1.75, and the commission to the agent,
forty cents.
We again urge upon agents and all others
sending IN subscriptions, to write the names
plainly, SO there will be no mistake Form
each letter distinctly; for instance, where
two "e's' come as in the name of Freeman"
and the agent, writing with pencil, does not
show the loop in the "e's," the clerk at this
end IS almost sure to enter the name as Cru
man," with the result that Mr.. Freeman does
not get his paper, although it is going to his
post-office regularly.
Therefore, we again stress the point, aorite
the names plainly, and if possible, with pen
and ink.
Agents who travel for the Jeffs and the
Progressive Democrat. and who are at the ex-
pense of horse hire, railroad fare and hotel
bills, are justly entitled to,special rates These
we will give, on application. In each case,
let the applicant for these special rates tell
us when and where he will take the field for
active work. T. E. w.

ready to take the road by 7 80 A. NJ, Satur-
day morning
Unfortunately the gentlemen who were
sent to land me in Bowman lost the qcay to
Atheas. They spent several hours touring the
State, in other directions. While [ was fdget-

Athens, these gentlemen were inspecting seen

Finally, at 8 20, they rolled IN. The driver
examined his oil can, and found that it con-
tanned suficiency. But the gasoline tank

We ran out of Athens, and were hoping to
arrive in Bowman nearly on time, when one
of the inner tubes burst. Then the sickness of

amusement that morning. Every now and
then we'd meet buggy full of stout women
and fat children. Hands would 90 up, and
wave frantically. Stop! We stopped. Stout
ladies would pile out, some to the right, some
out, and stood up in a row, beside the high
way Then, the horse would be led to one
side; and we'd start again. AS we passed the
horse | noticed that it was nibbling grass,

Why? Why? Why?
The New York World con-

These are the sections of tho
Sherman anti. trust law upon
which the supreme court of the
United States recently based its
decision sustaining the decree of
the United States circuit court of

This act is criminal statute,

crimes are enforced.
From the Addyston Pipe de-

the supreme court has repeatedly
upheld the sherman act both as
