ing their garments at considerable less cost
In many cases, it has been impossible to
buy direct from manufacturers, some of the
very newest styles at less than former
wholesale costs, and so in turn, offer them
to you at corresponding low cost.
But this season things have changed ma
terially. This year we are at war. This
year the demands of the government are
arisen. So much so that thru the curtail-
ment of the manufacturers of woolen ma
terials, manufacturers have agreed to make
up only such garments as they have receiv-
ed orders for This has been done to con-
serve the supply of woolen materials and
has forced so radical departure that the
manufacturer will not have on hand, at the
end of the season, the usual surplus stocks
for disposal at less than early season costs.
1t is reported that there are no surplus
stocks in the great manufacturing concerns
of New York, and that instead of this the
manufacturers are diverting their atten-
tion to the development and to the making
of Fall styles, which is almost two months
earlier than we have ever heard of before.
SO then, this talk is made here simply to
impress upon those who have been waiting.
to buy their Spring garments at reduced
price later, that it is very doubtful that
they can secure their Spring garments lat
er in the season at less cost, or even Sc
cure desirable garment at all. There are
apt not to be any. We count ourselves
lucky in having our present stock on hand,
so if you will take our advice, you will pur-
chase now while choice is at its best for this
period of the year

. 80 A>>> - . . . i,
The sun., 1918-10-20
BY FRANK M. O'BRIEN.

THE striking thing about A Book Of
Remarkable Criminals. the work
Of II. B. Irving, is not what it delivers
but what it suggests. Mr.. Irving in COW
ering few scattered cases of murder in
a painstaking and attractive way calls
attention to the lack of large literature
of lifetaking; that is, lifetaking by the in
dividual and not by the Prussian oil
garchy.
The subject Of interesting murders-and
no two interesting murders are alike-can-
not be adequately covered by any one man
unless he devote his life to the work. One
writer with a passion for the task and
using few busy years might make fair
lob of the eountry's sensational cases OF
homicide, covering in a regional way one
of the most engrossipg topics that have
ever occupied the attention of man. Or
the individual writer might single out, in
all the countries where accurate records
are kept of tragedies, the most interesting
murders that have had their root in the
same motive, whether it be revenge, love,
greed, escape, hot anger or plain euss-
edness.
The Fascination of Homicide.
Mr.. Irving recalls in his introduction
that Tennyson told his distinguished
father, Sir Henry, that the latest he ever
sat up at night was with Jowett and that
the subject of their conversation was muir
ders. "The fact" says Mr.. Irving, lis a
tribute to the interest that crime has for
many men of intellect and imagination"
Indeed it has; and some of these men,
The sun., 1918-10-20
Remarkable Criminals and Al Crimes

along the lines Of Irving's have been writ
ten on American murders by careful and
interesting writers. The late Alfred
Henry Lewis prepared for a magazine and
later published in book form few of the
sensational cases of the last century, like
the murders of Helen Jewett, Bill Poole,
DR.. Burdell, Florence Scannell, Samuel
Adams and Jim Fisk.
Another fine writer, the late Victor
Speer, prepared the manuscript of the
memoirs of John Murray, the great
Canadian police inspector, and this col
lection of several of the most dramatic Of
the Dominion murders was published
about a dozen years ago. Beyond these
two books the modern literature of Ameri-
can crimes is barren. OF course all SEN
satlonal murders have had their eOntem-
porary pamphleteers, but our serious
writers who might have done something in
the way of making accurate and interest
ing records have not paid much attention
to a very broad field. 1t is curious that
murder has never had as great an appeal
as robbery TO the chronieler of fact. De-
foes pamphlets deal largely with the thief,
like Jack Sheppard and Jonathan Wild.
Why Is it that the criminal whose crimes
The sun., 1918-10-20

are interesting largely because they are
part of his living and are huge only in the
aggregate has more attention paid to him
by. writers than is granted to the individ-
ual who commits one great crime?
Meanwhile those who wish to recall the
manifold villainies of Holmes and who
have only scant recollection of the re-
markable murder of DIR. Parkman will
have good time with Mr.. Irving's book.
Such as enjoy recital of the fiendishness
Of the female will find in Gabrielle Fenay-
ron the prototype Of Augusta Mack. Mrs.
Mack herself will like the story if she is
still in our fair city; and DIR. Meyer, if
he be in this part of the world, might be
interested in the case of DIR. Castaing, who,
like DR.. Meyer, poisoned friend or two
but who, unlike DR.. Meyer, did not live
twenty years afterward.
