A great many parents know
how careful I am in picking
out shoes for children, and
then how careful my people
are in picking them out of my
stock for the little folks as they
come in.
s This is worth'more thana
dollar off "every shoe in my
store; for I am careful and we
are careful Of very important
things. Dry feet and sound
feet are very inportant things.
I have a first-rate trade with
the youngsters and young-
stresses; might be bigger;
ought to be bigger- that’s
what I’m working for.

Hats and shoes and furnish-
, ing goods are as much a part of
our trade as clothing, and we
think we conduct all these de-
partments about as well as is
possible.
When a dealer eliminates
from his stock whatever is in-
ferior in quality and Sticks to
good things at moderate prices,
it is only a question of time
and enterprise when he will
gather a large custom. That
is precisely our plan of build-
ing up our business.
If you are users of our cloth-
ing and not of these other
things let us introduce you to
them also.
Derby hats at $1.90, $2.50
and $3. You will find them
all good, but the three dollar
hat is intrinsically the cheapest.
It is the best hat we can get
made and pays us least profit
of any. Men who once buy
it are sure to keep on using
the same kind. That is why
we put such stress upon this
particular hat.
Of ? shoes, another time.

Harmonious, Nominates lit-Congress-
man Allen hr Governor and ‘W. H.
Hallo for Lieutenant Governor.
NEW YORK, Sept. 18. -—A special dispatch
received here from Washington announces
that President Harrison has appointed
Franas Hendricks collector of custom:
for the port of New York, the position
made vacant by the recent resignation oi
J. Sloat Fassett. '
Senator Francis C. Hendricks was born
in Kingston, N. Y., Nov. 23, 1834. He was
educated in the common... schools and in
the Albany academy. He has lived in
Sy‘racuse for many years. He is at pres
cut the president of the State bank oi
that city, and of the Trust and Deposit
company, of Onondaga. After serving as
fire commissioner
in Syracuse he
was elected to the
mayoralty. He
was sent to the
legislature in 1884
_ and 1885 as the
, representative of
' the Twenty-fifth
district, consist-
ing of Onondaga
and Cortlandt
' counties. Then
FRANCIS HENDRICKS. he was chosen
state senator, and the present is his third
term in that body.
He has been a dark horse in every race
for the governorship for many years. As
a senator he has been known as a careful
student of all that has come before him.
He has been for some time the chairman
of the senate cities committee, and, as such,
it is said of him that he has been instru-
mental in preventing the progress toward
enactment of many measures which, if
they became laws, could not but have
worked injury to the communities they
were intended to aflect.

cannot afford to
win victories by

sound and dishon-
est finance. He

' ”tive tariff sys-
Ji'tem, praised Mr.
Blaine’s foreign
policy, eulogized

made that it can win by lowering its
standard of leadership or abandoning its
principles.”

”‘Txrnom FEVER IN JERSEY.
There Are 150 Cases in Jersey City and
200 in Newark. ‘/
JERSEY CITY, Sept. 18.——The typhoid
fever epidemic among the people in New
Jersey who drink the water of the Pas
saic river is steadily increasing in serious
.ness. For several weeks scores of people
in Newark and its environs have been
prostrated by the disease. N otwithstand-
ing the numerous cases the health board
denied that there was any epidemic, and
refused to confirm the press reports of the
mortality in the city.
The same state of affairs exists now at
Jersey City, whose water supply is brought
from the Passaic. Pursuing the same tac
tics as the Newark officials, the Jersey
City board of health refuses to make any
statement of the public health, although
Clerk Rooney, of the bureau of vital sta
tistics, admits that there is a large in
crease in the number of deaths from ty-
phoid fever.
Dr. F. D. Gray, surgeon in chief oi
Christ hospital, and leading doctor of the
city, said: “There is no getting around the
fact that there is an epidemic of typhoid
in this city. I have nine cases now, and
in the last six weeks have had seven case:
on two adjacent blocks. The cause is the
Passaic water. It is abominable, and un-
fit for use by man or beast.”
Dr. F. D. McGill, another physician oi
large practice, said: “There is an epidemic
of typhoid. I have six cases in private
practice and twenty cases at St. Francis
hospital.” ' Other physicians were seen,
and all bore the same testimony. It is
safe to say that there are 150 cases in J or-
sey City and 200 in Newark. -
YONKERS SOLDIERS’ MON U RIENT.
The Dedication Services Witnessed by
Over Ten Thousand Persons.
YONKERS, N. Y., Sept. 18.—The dedica-
tion of the soldiers and sailors’ monu-
ment took place here, an immense crowd
being present. It is estimated that at
least 10,000 visitors witnessed the impos-
ing ceremonies. The United States steam-
er Boston, which lay at anchor in Yonkers
harbor, fired the salute. Twelve G. A. R.
posts, the Eleventh Separate company,
N. G. S. N. Y., from Mount Vernon,
the Nineteenth Separate company from
Poughkeepsie, the Fourth Separate com-
pany from Yonkers, and 100 sailors and
marines from the Boston participated in
the parade.
Mr. Charles E. Gorton, president of the
monument association, presided and dedi‘
cated the monument. The Rev. A. B.
Carver delivered the prayer of the occa-
sion, which was followed by the rendering
of “Hail Columbia” by a chorus of 206
voices. Hon. Orlando Potter delivered
the oration of the day. Rev. Thomas Mc«
Laughlin recited “The Men Who Saved
the Union.” Miss Susie L. Hermance un-
veiled the monument, followed by a reci-
tation by Mrs. Eleanor Georgen, and then
the Ceremonies closed with the benediCn
tion, pronounced by the Rev. John Reid.
”After the benediction the Fourth Sepa«
rate company fired a volley in memory oi
the soldiers and sailors from Yonkers, to
whom the monument is dedicated.
Two Young Girls Abducted.
OMAHA, Sept. 18.—George Morelli, an
Italian barber of this city, took Mary
Marcino, aged sixteen, and Jennie Miller,
aged fifteen, to the theater Friday night,
and since that time the girls have disap-
peared. Monday Miss Miller’s father re
ceived a letter from her, dated Chicago,
saying that she and Miss Marcino had
been drugged by Marclli, taken aboard
the cars and landed in Chicago, where
theywere at he time of writing confined
at 1832 Wab ~ avenue. Mrs. Marcino,
mother of Mary, went to Chicago, but
failed to find the girls at the number
given. She is still prosecuting the search.
Kansas and the Fair.
TOPEKA, Sept. 18.—There were nearly
$40,000 of subscriptions represented at the
World’s Fair convention, and enough
more counties were heard from to in-
crease this to $50,000. A feeling of con-
fidence that the remaining $50,000 would
be secured in due time pervaded the con-
vention. A permanent board of managers,
consisting of one from each congressional
district and two at large, was elected. 'The
board was organized, and permanent head-
quarters will be opened here, and a credit-
able exhibit from this state is assured.

ROCHESTER, N. Y., Sept. 18.—The Flour

A Narrow Escape for Polk.
NEW YORK, Sept. 18.—A special to The
World from Wichita, Kan, says all ar
rangements were made there yesterday to
tar and feather L. L. Polk, national presi-
dent of the Alliance, but through the in-
tervention of the police the old soldiers
who were in the movement were frus

of the Salisbury (N. C.) military prison
during the war, and is said to have been
guilty of many cruelties to the soldiers
confined in the prison.

a prominent wholesale merchant of Truro,

train, when he missed his step and was
struck by the moving cars, though there
were no marks on the body when found.

parts of Minnesota and the Dakotas indi-
cate that Wednesday was the hottest Sep:
