Suits that are worth
many more dollars than a
mere $39.75, of tricolette,

They are most hand
somely tailored, with all
the distinctive t C h e s

have to hurry to get one.
It's impossible for them to
last long at this price.

TO SILENCE ENGINEERS
Too Much Whistiing Has Texarkana
 Aroused.

TeXarkana, Aug. 22.-So many con- plaints have been made lately of the unnecessary blowing of whistles on trains and switch engines in the local yards, that the authorities on both sides of town have served notice that the persons responsible for the prac- tice will be arrested and fined unless the evil is abated at once. People with nerves" claim to have been greatly annoyed during recent months and have often urged the officers to give them relief.
 Four or five years ago several en- gineers were arrested as a resut of too much blowing of whistles and were fined in the City Court on the Arkan- sas side. These fines. however, were remitted on promise of the defendants to discontinue the nuisance.
