weather will again appear, melting tho snow
and rendering (leighing impossible in somelo

We havo not obtained tho particulars of an

R, R. on Saturday last. All thatwe have learn
ed regarding it is, that early on Saturday morn
ing n coal train coming up slopped a short dis
tnnce above the Oatawissa depot, and owing to
the negligence of a hrakeman to flag a train
that was following, a collision occurred which
resulted in severely injuring two men,inasmucl
ns the condition of one is very precarious.
Tlisre is likely to be some hyely work on
Tuesday. Everybody will hive a ticket of his
own ana vote it. Though both parties bave
nominated "straight" tickets, it is doubtful
whether the voting will all be that way. Many
DemocraU will vote for the Republican candi
date for President of the Council, because he is
in f.ivor of water and gas and improvements
generally, and on the other hand many Repub
licans will vote for the Democratic candidate)
because he has heretofore been opposed to
these measures. Party linei cannot be drawn
in a municipal election like ours. No matter
who is elected, neither party can claim it as
victory. The vote will simply show which of
the candidates is believed to be the best man
by a majority of the citizens, irrespective of
politics.

The Great
Bargain Room'
at Oak Hall.)
There never was any
where before, so far as we
know, such a sale of clothing
as is now going on at Oak
Hall, taking up the whole
ground floor. A hundred
thousand dollars' worth of
good clothing, nearly all of
it new and fashionable, all of
it well made and of good
materials without exception
(for we make no other) is
being sold at prices which
bring loss instead of gain.
Clearing sales occur at the
close of every season ; but
they commonly are sales of
broken assortments and odd
garments, and of small quan
tities. Here toward the end of
our most successful season
we are clearing out what
ever, for any cause, has
shown signs of being slow.
Tlnusands of whole suits
and overcoats and odd gar
ments as well.
Now the sole reason for
selling this mass of valuable
clothing, without even an at
tempt at profit, is that stated
above, which may be put into
different words, thus : To get
our stock into the most at
tractive condition, without
regard to immediate profit.
And so, while this sale is
going on, the choicest, most
approved, most successful,
clothing we have is up stairs.
The prices there are not re
duced at all. This sale will
hurt that while it lasts, be
cause the clothing in the
bargain room is extremely
good. For this reason we
want it short ; and to make
it short, the prices are low.
Bring back promptly what
you don't want at the price.
You can order by letter,
or buy here, according to
your own convenience. On
receipt of a letter from you,
will send the means of tak-:
ing your own measure. Then
you can tell us what you
want, near enough so that
we can take the risk of suit
ing you.y

what tho others keep and then look over omu Every year brings
many new things useful in tho kitchen and elsewhere throughout the
houso and wo aro constantly milling to our stock such articles as wo
think saleable. Unless you havo looked over our stock iroin tune to
timo you would be surprised to know how many little articles thoro
aro made for kitchen ubc, labor saving and just what you have so of
ten wanted at a low price. Wo sell lots and lots of Tinware, our trndo
increases every year and wo do not sell lower than the others cither.
Sometimes wo want more nnd we g(-t it and the reason is simply that
our customers are huding out that
made ami most durable Tinware in the county; you can hardly wear
it out, and therefore it is cheap. We huy the best tin anil have it
made under our own eves, anil wo know how its done. It is not lontr

We are opening this week a now
scriptions for table and cooking purposes. Of all tho improvements
in kitchen utensils, none lias met with moro invor than Mnrbleized
Ware, its beauty and durability commending itself to every one and
the demand is greater than tho supply. A lady (old us the other day
whenever her friends spoke of buying table cutlery she always sent
them to us as we kept such a large variety of patterns and they had
more choice. Those of you who were in last week saw wo had a largo
stock then, but it is all sold out. The manufacturers of Table Cutlery
have a meeting in Ntw York every once in a while and besides hav
ing a good time they' decide as to whether to put their prices up,
down, or leave them alne. This time thoy decided to put tliein down
and we bought several very handsome new patterns which we can sell
lower than over. AVe keep Woodenware, Washboards, Tubs, Churns,
Buckets, Bowls, Ladles, t&o. Space will not permit us to go further
and we will wind up by saying almost every thing useful for house
keepers may be found among our stock except (modesty forbids)
but Cadman has theM next door.
