Normal Boys at Wflkes-Barre.
The annual gymnasium exhibition
and athletic contest by the Y. M. C.
A. was held at Wilkes-Barre Monday
night. Bloomsburg was well repre
sented by the Normal class, and al
though they came out second best in
the basket ball, they put up a good
game. The Rtcord says :
"The Bloomsburg class gave an ex
hibition of club swinging that brought
out great applause. These young
athletes are very proficient in the use
of the clubs, are well trained and make
a good impression.
One of the features of the evening
was the basket ball game between the
Wilkes Barre Y. M. C. A. and the
Bloomsburg Normal School. This
was the last number on the program
and one of the best The game was
hotly contested at the 6tart, but it soon
became evident that the Wilkes-Barre
team was too strong for the Normal
boys. The latter were clearly out
played, and although they put up a
plucky fight, at the end the score
stood 7 to 2 in favor of Wilkes-Barre.
Dan Beliee was referee, and Mr.
Slieetz and Professor Detwiler, um
pires." Ilarrisburg is going to try the De
troit potato patch plan. Vacant lots
will be assigned to people who will
cultivate the ground. It has been
very successful in a number of cities.
Mayor Pingree, of Detroit, is the in
ventor of the plan, and it has made
him famous.
The horny-handed man calls it
"pay," the skilled mechanic "wages,"
the city clerk "salary," the banker
"income," a land owner "rent," a law
yer "fees," a burglar -"swag," but it
all means the same at the end of the
week.

New Departure.
The attention of the ladies of
Bloomsburg is called to the fine line of
shirt waists displayed by the Blooms
burg Car Company's store.
Hereafter the letters which go out
from the Washington, D. C, post
office will have the weather indications
stamped on them. The stamp will be
the usual date stamp with a circle
around it indicating the kind of weath
er to be expected, such as "rain,"
"snow," colder," fair" and the like.
For the present, Washington will be
the only office using these stamps, but
if the experiment proves successful,
the use of similar stamps will probably
be introduced in every city where the
weather bureau has stations.
Soon along the streets will march
the seemingly invincible base ball
batsman. lie will have the old fire
in his eye, and the swagger of a slug
ger. If he wins he swaggers all the
more. If his team comes out second
best he will talk and gesticulate as to
why it happened so, and may be, very
likely, will lay some blame 011 the
umpire. 'Twas always so.
Commencing Thursday, April 9th,
and continuing until Saturday, April
t8th, Gidding & Co., the clothiers,
celebrate the 4U1 year of the opening
of their store by a 4th Anniversary
Sale, during which event they will
give special values in every depart
ment, and will also during this sale
only give a discount of ten per cent
on all clothing purchases. A visit to
their establishment during this sale
will prove highly profitable, as their
entire spring stock is now in. Every
dollar purchase entitles you to a
chance on the pony outfit.

Revolutionized
Prices for Spring.
Amazing but
Absolutely True
Great results demand bold strokes
We must double our sales or cut down the work of
thousands who look to us for it. Unless we sell twice
its much, we've goods enough for the whole season.
That's why
Prices just one-half to double the sales.
"We know it's unusual. We know it's unprofitable. We've gone all over that,
and decided, with Spring just beginning, to
Break away from cut and dried methods by Selling for Half Price.
Whatever clothes you want, for Spring, better buy now. Whatever clothes you
want this Summer buy now. Whatever clothes you want next Winter buy now.
'It just comes to this :
Finest Overcoats worth $25.00 next October, are $12.50 now.
Finest Black Suits worth $30.00, to-day we sell for $15.00.
Spring Suits worth $12.00 go for $6.00 ; $8.75 ones $4.38.
Spring Overcoats worth $12.00 are $6.00; $7.50 ones $3.75.
Boys' Suits ought to bring $8.00, now $4.00 ; $4.00 ones $2.00
; Men's Trousers by thousands at just half.
We only give a few prices out of many. The city is stirred up over our prices.
Nothing has ever been done like it. We're clothing with Wanamaker & Brown's make
of Clothing at prices that don't pay for the cloth and work.
Notwithstanding the prices, we're paying
Railroad Fare on purchases of moderate
amount, as usual.

WEEKLY COS.

April 8. 189(5.
The rage for wheels has become
epidemic throughout the entire
world. Only a few years back we
rode a wheel as a Hobby. Now it
li.is almost become , a necessity.
The biiMiicss man tides to save
time; but the great majority ride
for the pleasure there is in it. No
more exhilarating sport can be
imagined than a spin on a nicely
adjusted light weight bicycle.
Hither to the cost has stood in the
nay of gratifying a wholesome de
sire to ride a wheel ; but this great
barrier has happily been removed.
We belong to a combination that
have agreed to take thousands of
bicycles from o c tf the oldest
bicycle imnuf.i-:l.ircrs in the
country. Our only stipulation is
the number we sell and the use
jf onr own name plate "The
Anthracite" hence the great re
duction in the selling price. Don't
pay $100.00, these arc as good.
The material used in the Anthi a
ictc is the best 'hat money and
skill can produce : Mannesmann
seamless steel tubing frame I 1-8
Inch, wi.h 3 inch rear forks and
stays, spokes swaged tangent,
Dutted ends tied and full nickel
plated Plymouth (best quality
.vood) rims, hubs, bairel trimmed
from solid steel forgings, adjustable
land'c bar, Garford, Hunt, Hutl.r
and Ward or similar high grade
saddles, rat trap or rubber pedals,
:hain inch H umber pattern, tires
Morgan and Wright, M. and W.
quick repair, or Hartford single
tube adjustable up or down turn
landlc bars.
These wheels are the perfection
jf grade and beauty an J are fully
varranteJ at every point. Our
arice for ladies' and Men's is $59.00.
Misses and Youths $45.00. Girls
ind Hoys $37.00.
Write for our catalog, ami
:onider what our guarantee for
jne year means. Weight of wheels
22 lbs
How much do you pay for your
incn collars and cuffs? We pre
turns at least 20c and possibly
25c. When a man knows he can
;et as good an article fjr just hall
;hc price, isn't he extravagant in
:ontinu ng lo pay the higher
imoun'.s?
We arc agents for Eugene P.
Peyser, probably the leading linen
:ollar and cuff manufacturer in the
:ountry. We sell collars all styles
at ioc, cuffs 15 and 18c. And
what's more we sell thousands ol
them to people of exquisite taste,
they brag about their superior
qualities and perfection of lit.
Don't you think it would pay ti
send us a trial order? We arc not
doubtful of the results. You'll
order again and again.
