Crowded Stores That Reduced Goods
 2oAto 50 Per Cent.

Omaha, May 17.--As the result of a price cutting war among the big de- partment stores of this city. Omaha citizens were today treated to sam ple of the low cost of living, the first in several years. As a still further re- suit. Omaha indulged in a regular or gy of buying the things which it has been unable to purchase for months and months.
 Three big department stores this morning cut prices 20 per cent on ev. cry thing except patented lines. The biggest department store in the city, which was not among the price cut ters. at 10 o'clock posted notice that without a single exception everything in the store was cut 30 per cent. At noon two other big stores got in the fight and cut 30 to 50 per cent. These figures are bona fide and were not fake sales. When business closed to- night there were rumors that still greater reductions would be made to- morrow. .
 And. for hours and hours today
  omaha simply reveled in shopping at the slashed prices. Several times DO lice were called to preserve order Showcases were broken, counters overturned and near-riots started sev. eral times Special rules made by he stores early in the day were all called off by noon. Nationally advertised goods of all kinds went on sale under the reduction the same as other goods
 San Francisco. May 17.-A large San Francisco store, devoted almost exclu siyely to women's wear, advertised to- day and until further notice," 20 per cent reductions in prices of all mer chandise Several haberdasheries an. nounced material decreases in mems furnishings, exclusive of clothing.
 Saginaw, Mich, May 17.-To aid in restoring prices to a normal level. several dealers in mems furnishing have announced that for limited time they will sell any, except made to or. der goods, for from 20 to 20 per cen less than the current prices.

RAILWAY MAIL SERVICE AGAIN
INSTALLED

Realizing the inconvenience to
j Paris, md other cities to the South,
as result of the new Louisville &
Nashville train not carrying mali
and express, these essentials, as they
are considered, are now a part of the
load carried by the new train. After
the wave of protest against the cur
tailment of the mail and express
service the l. & N. officials lost lit
tie time in remedying the condi-
tions complained of.
The trains now carry both mali
and express and the inconvenience
has been eliminated. This admits OF
an improvement in mail express and
passenger service benefitLing not
only Paris, but Cynthiana, Winches-,
ter, Richmond, Lancaster and Stan
ford. With the extra train on a
fast schedule between Paris and
Cincinnati, there has been a decided
improvement in the passenger SER
vice especially.
