MAKES $3 ADVANCE
 ON BEER PER BARREL
Saloon Keepers Will Keep Retail Price at Cents, Serving Smaller Glasses


 Tall schooners of beer at cents per glass will no longer be piloted over the bars of the city since an increase of $500 per barrel to the retailers goes into effect at once according to a notice received from the brewers. This makes beer by the barrel now cost SIS, or a dollar more than it could be bought by the hogshead for merly. An advance of 15 cents per dozen for, bottled, goods has been put into effect.
 Saloon keepers who discussed the situation on Saturday said that the price for big glasses. would have to be 10 cents if they continued to serve that size. but they were in favor of keeping the price at cents. which meant necessarily smaller glass.

They're made up along the very
latest lines, full back, flaring from
the shoulders, Dolman sleeves and
other desirable style features. Plain
tailored and fur-collared models,
lined with plain or fancy Pussy

They are coats, as we say, of a
real high order; from $4,000 to S35. 90

spite of its name, should prove one
of the most successful of the closing
