A piece of type dropped in the
makeup brought fifty breathless
women to The Fair, at State and
Adams, yesterday morning to buy
brass beds at $3.50, started a scrap
between The Fair and the Daily News
and drew letter of apology from the
newspaper. Relations between all
parties are still strained.
A paragraph in The Fairs adVer-
tisement of Thursday carried by the
News read, Brass Beds-$20 value.
Friday - only 81 80" Fifty busy
women rose early Friday to be the
first on the fifth floor of The Fair to
secure a $40 bed for $3.50.
And promptly at o'clock when
the store opened the fifty made
rush for the elevator, the fifth floor
and the bed. Then they met with dis
appointment
]. j. Buell., general manager of The
Fair, was hustled to the bedside
where the excited women each, de-
manded a bed for $3.50. He looked
at the bed, gazed over the Daily News
ad and then explained
'The advertisement should have
read $11.50, ladies'" he told the heat
ed crowd. "The fault is that of the
Daily News. If we advertised 500
beds for $3.50 we would sell just that
kind at that price. We didn't, The
News is wrong"
But words are a poor solace for
bargain hunting women who expect
$40 beds for $1.50, and Buell. had
some trouble in quieting the mob.
Two men who were in the crush de-
manded the beds, threateend to sue
The Fair, the News and every one else
to blame.
All of this happened before $50.
Beginning at 9 o'clock a steady
stream of bargain-hunters not as ex-
peditious as the early risers made

femininity and tired out explaining.
So the News was called and asked to
do some explaining.
A letter of apology was hurried to
The Fair, and Buell., exhausted by the
babbling bargain hunters, tackled the
letter to the infamous bed which had
ben mislabeled in the Daily News.
1t read in part:
I'VE regret exceedingly the typo
graphical error which appeared in
the Daily News in connection with
the Bed Announcement
"The advertisement read: Great

morrow's sale. Complete Outfit, spe-
cially priced Friday, 81 So
"This advertisement should have
read: Complete outfit, specially
priced Friday, $11.5O.'
eve trust the error will not cause
YOU any inconvenience or loss. It is
one of those unfortunate errors
which sometimes occur in connection
with the rush of going-to-press hour.
Very sincerely, ]. B. woodward, Ad-
vertising Manager, Daily News"
Then Buell. explained to The Day
Book:
This accident happens a dozen
times a year to the State street
stores. Every store has had to ex-
plain that the mistake was the fault
of the newspaper which printed the
error and not the store.
"The newspapers sometimes make
good the loss of carfare and often
make up the difference between the
advertised price and the real price,
where this difference is not too large.
"In case 78-cent article is adver-
tised at z cents the newspaper often
will make up the difference, if we sell
the 78-cent article at cents to keep
the patronage of those who answered
the ad. In this case the News prob
ably will not come across, because
