Newspapers widely advertise August furniture sales
and people rush to take advantage of the socalled
reduction in price but what do they buy? Surely
not always new furniture thus exploited at the end
of the season; and surely not up,todate furniture
after the choice of a stock has been sold. AS
matter of fact what they buy is stock that has been
left over and people have found that it lacks beauty,
workmanship finish, forming good reason why
YOU should let it alone. Then again special goods
manufactured for August sales, in order to stand
the reduction in price. All these things are elnl-
mated when you make your purchases here. All our
Autumn furniture and bedding stock is now

ARE NOW MADE PUBLIC

People Express Views to
the Senate.
MAY NOT BE RATIFIED NOW
Borah and Bacon, of Opposite
Parties, Express View That
Senate's Rights Are Threat
ened by Article III.

Washington, Aug. 5.-Thc Senate to-
day adopted the rather unusual. but not
unprecedented, course of making public
the text of four treaties which have not
yet received action at its hands. Those
We're the Anglo merican and the
Franco-American general arbitration
treaties. and the treaties providing for
the adjustment Of the finances and Gus
toms Of Honduras and Nicaragua.
Publicity was given to those important
conventions at the request Of the admin
istration, which desires that the subject
matter shall receive the fullest consid-
Grafton by the press and the people in or
der to enlighten the Senate as 10 the
real sentiment Of the country as basis
for its own action. Justification for this
procedure developed to-day, when in
short executive session two Senators of
opposite parties-Borah, of Idaho, and
Bacon. of Georgia-voiced their dissent
TO the ratification of the arbitration
treaties in the forms submitted.
Their criticism was aimed at Article III,
identical in the two treaties, which, In
their opinion, provides for compulsory
arbitration, and thus tends to deprive
the United States Senate Of it's constitu-
tional prerogatve. The treaty advo-
Gates. however, felt that there had been
a misunderstanding Of the scope OF the
treaty by the two Senators, and that
clause in Article l of the treaties, which
provides that there shall be no arbitra-
ton except under the terms of special
agreement, effectively guards the rights
of the Senate, as such special agreement
shall receive the Senates sanction in or
der to become ODeratiVe.

thirteenth century work.
The Creeds in lreland.-There are

The Cause of Joan of Arc.-Mgr.
Touchet, Bishop of Orleans, France,
arrived in Rome recently in connec-
ton with matter that regards the
Catholics of France This is the
presentation to the Sacred Congrega-
ton of Rites of certain documents
in canonical form which expose the
circumstances attending three facts
deemed miraculous which are being
adduced for the canonization of
Blessed Joan of Arc. These occurred
since the Identification of the Maid in
1909. For the canonization of a SER
want of God four miracles are re-
quired, two of which must have taken
place subsequent to the ceremony of
Qualification. Given that two of these
three facts (regarded by the French
people as miraculous) are proved to
the satisfaction of the Sacred Congre-
cation of Rites, it would not be sur
prising if France were to see her de.
liverer raised to the supreme honors
OF the altar within few years.

SHOWS ADVANTAGE OF:
SUSPENDED SENTENCES
Judge De Lacy Prefers Putting
- :. Delinquent Husbands on
r Probation.

The fact that almost $4,000 has been
for the maintenance of their families fol-
lowing convictions and suspended sem
fences upon charges of non-support in the
past five years is used as an argument by
Judge w. II. Dc Lacy for the extension
or adoption OF this system of dealing with
delinquent heads of families, in a paper
which he intended to read before the
American prison congress at Omaha next
Friday. Owing to a press Of work here
he is unable to keep the engagement.
He urges that suspended sentences for
such class of cases be adopted generally
III the criminal courts throughout the
country. They should be placed on pro-
baton i'm the strictest sense of the word,
AMI put upon their honor to fulfill the oh
legations they owe their families. The
paper declares the local courts exper-
fence has been that there have been COM
paratively few failures. The system not
only makes the family a self-sustaining
one, he points out. but relieves the COM
munity from the burden of supporting
them and keeps the heads of families out
Of prison.
Judge De Lacy compares the sum paid
through his court for the support of
families with the sum of 81, S67. paid for
the support of their families by prisoners
sent for non-sup,ort to the workhouse.
The difference in the amounts and the
burden of Imprisonment upon the COM
munity are silent but powerful arsII-
n,ents he declares, for the adoption of
the probation system.

OF SENTINEL
PUZZLE TO OFFICIALS
Guard at Navy Yard Knocked
SenseIess by Some Un-
identified Person.

After spending more than fifteen hours
yesterday investigating an assault in the
navy yard at 30 O'Clock in the morning
the police of the fifth precinct reported
the affair to headquarters.
Private Frank Mckendrick of the Ma
rine Corps, who was doing sentry duty
near the northwest corner of the navy
yard wall, was the victim of an unidenti-
fled assailant. He was struck on the
back with a club and rendered uncon-
scious. first, however, firing shot at his
assailant, attracting the attention of a
policeman. McKendrick was able to dis
cuss the affair with his superiors this
morning. He is suffering from much
sprained back.
Policemen have different theories as
to how the assault occurred. One Is that
three men were in the yard for the pur-
pose of robbery and that when the SEN
try fired at one on the wall he was feiled
with a club held by another.
Other policemen think Mckendrick be-
came involved in a row with marines
who wanted to get out of the yard. The
police say they examined the ground in
side the wall and found footprints. None
of them, however. led to the wall The
police and Marine Corps officials are CON-
tinuing their investigation.
