We have just closed a deal with the Hickman
Wagon Company for all finished wagons on
hand and we bought these at very low fig 4
ure, from the fact that they didn't care to
ship them to their new plant at CIarksddIe,
Miss, which would incur great deal of ex- i
pense, and we are offering these wagons as ]
long as they last at the following prices:
onetiOr'e Wagon. with bed andp plain seat COT en-
rwo-Ho"e Wagon No. 94, high le..be ed 20OO
TwoiOrse Wagon No ga height wheels. bed 20 m
Twofio"s Wagon No 8 stiff height 2Q0O
TwoiO'e Wagon No q, slip tongue bed A00O
You will notice that these wagons are all I
quoted less beds, with exception of the one
horse wagon, and the price of the bed comes 4
extra, according to the size.
We will carry the same guarantee as hereto 4
fore and will always have repairs on hand
Now at these prices we are going to move the q
wagons, and move them quick, and if you are
figuring on needing a wagon within the next

sinking of the Hampshire was a legiti
mate act of warfare if it was actually
done by German submarine. Any Brit
ish warship is fair mark for torpedo
and Kitchener was an especially shining
target, particularly in view of his errand
designed to forward the Anglo Russian
cooperation in the war.
1t has been intimated that at Scot
land Yard the suspicion is held that
members of the radical Irish party are
responsible for the tipping off of Ber
lin to kitchener's plan. This would not
be surprising. The recent uprising in
Dublin amply proved that there is close
communion of spirit between the Ger
mans and the recalcitrant Irish in the
hatred of England. but whether the spy
ing in London is done by Germans OF
by 1rishmen. or by traitorous English
men themselves, it is of but little mo.
ment. The only Importance to be at
tached to the suggestion that an Irish
spy was the agent of Germany's infor-
nation is that belief to this effect will
greatly intensity the English feeling
against the Irish people.
