Between
Ourselves

We usually refrain
from talking shop in
this little column, but in
view of the marked fall
ing off of imports since
the war began, we can
not resist saying some
thing about the ABUN-
DANCE OF IMPORT
ED MERCHANDISE at
this store.
1t was fortunate that our
buyers went abroad this year
much earlier than usual. A
larger portion of the pur-
chases were received before
hostilities opened. In fact
FULLY 90 PER CENT. of
OUR FOREIGN MERCHAN-
Disc is now here.
So far as imports are con-
cerned we hardly know a war
is raging.

Pueblo. Colo.-With his skull frac-
tured, the body of John Miller, IS
years old, farmer, living 15 miles
west of Pueblo, was found in his home
by neighbor, Joseph Davis. The
wound on the back of the mans head
causes the sheriff to believe that the
man was murdered, and he is conduct
ing an exhaustive investigation.
Among Millers effects, in his home.
where he lived alone, were found an
uncashed check for $175.0O derived
from the sale of consignment of
sugar beets, and some money, indicat-
ing that the motive that prompted the
killing was not that of robbery.
Bloodstains in the house indicated
that Miller was struck, possibly with
a hammer, while standing near the
door. He had endeavored to crawl
across the room to bed but had be-
come unconscious before he reached
it, and died on the floor a few feet
away.
Davis went to see Miller on busi-
ness, and, entering the house, found
his friend lying upon the floor, dead.
The coroner has taken charge OF. the
body. Miller had no relatives living
in this part of the country but leaves
brother residing in Illinois.
