new FURNITURE
STORE OPENS ON
PACIFIC AVENUE

Green and English Furniture
Company Succeed j. 5. Kean.
With one of the most complete
stocks carried in the city, a new
furniture store opened today at
1501-3-5 Pacific av., under the
firm name of Green & English
Furniture Company, successors to
j. S. Kean.
The heads of the new enter
prise are Harry A. Green and
Franklin A. English, who have
been intimately connected with
j. S. Kean, the retired dealer,
for the past four years.
Mr.. Green has lived in Tacoma
and vicinity for the past "a years,
having seven years experience in
the furniture business.
Mr.. English came to Tacoma
from Cleveland, Ohio, and upon
arrival decided to make this city
his home. He has had ten years
experience in the furniture bust
ness.
The new store opened with a
new stock of home furnishings,
comprising all late styles and
finishes, and consists mostly of
medium priced goods. Only
lines made by dependable manu-
facturers are handled. Quality
was considered before price in
buying the stock as they intend
| to build up business with quail
ity, honest prices and a money
back guarantee as their motto.
The little things that count in
the quality of furniture are not
seen by the average purchaser as
often experienced furniture men
are deceived by appearance, ma
terial, construction and finish of
furniture manufactured by two
| different firms may seem to the
prospective buyer to be the same,
but several years in use will
| show the difference. One with
proper care will be like new, on
the other the finish will be worn
| off, the construction loose, and
the article useless. The latter can
be bought for about one-fourth
less than the former, and is used
entirely by few dealers who will
not fare competition on an equal
basis with their competitors.
Smooth statesmen sell such goods
to the public at a high price con-
/ sidering quality as lust as good"
as his competitor who will
not risk his reputation on the
cheaper grades. The misguided
buyers do not find out their mis-
take for year or so later, and
then are forced to replace the
articles when a few cents more
paid for the better grade to start
with would have saved not only
the inconvenience of buying
twice, but considerable money.
They will not risk their reputation
on a little glue, cheap finish, and
poor construction.
They are exclusive agents for
| the Range Eternal, manufactured
by Recommendations Range
Co., South Bend, Ind. They will
also carry a large assortment of
medium-priced stoves and ranges.
Besides carrying a large stock
of furniture, rugs, ranges and
house-furnishings, the new firm
will feature three and four-room
outfits especially adapted to the
use of newlyweds.

John o Rourke s bright bay mare So
mona took the measure of Louis War
rem Is Oneonta, In match race for
$1,000 at Kapiolani Park yesterday af-
ternoon, and several thousand dollars
changed hands when Jockey Carroll
pushed his mount under the wire a
good four lengths ahead OF the hard
ridden Oneonta. The time for the milc
was l:44-25.
Rarely in the history of Honolulu has
there been more interest taken in n
nurse race aud the partisanship within
the past few days has been bitter. So
mona ruled a steady favorite with the
general public yesterday, but the One
onta pluggers were getting their money
down for several days before the race.
Rumor of Frameup.
There were rumors yesterday morn
ing that there had been an attempt at
frameup whereby Oneonta should win
with or without merit, but it is under.
stood that the job, If there was one,
fell through. Carroll was given the
mount on Sonoma just before the horses
were called TO the post.
Oneonta, ridden by Benny, acted bad.
~ at the post, and consequently lost
| the rail position. They were OIL with
Sonoma in the lead. At the first turn,
Benny swung Oneonta wide, losing n
length. At the turn into the back
stretch Oneonta closed up sufficiently to
look Sonoma in the eye, maintained the
position for a few yards, and then the
! q hourke mare forged u length ahead.
Oneonta hung on but at the three-quar
tiers, began to tire, and Carroll on so
mona opened mp gap which continued
to widen. In the stretch, Benny, NOV
ed in one last desperate effort and went
to the whip, but Oneonta was through
and came in badly beaten mare.
