Two small fires around midnight last
night caused much excitement among
South Philadelphia residents. Damage
was negligible in both cases.
Fire of undetermined origin was dis
covered at 11 :30 p. m. yesterday in the
first floor of the building at 1005 South
Sixth street, owned by M. Frank, but at
present unoccupied. The engine com
pany from Fourth street and Snyder
avenue easily put the blaze under con
trol. At 1 :30 a. m. paper in the Accom
modation Meat Market, northwest cor
ner of Eighteenth nnd Ritner streets,
caught fire. The flames were extin
guished before the store was badly damaged.

Comprelaeinisive Stocks of
SUITS and
OVERCOATS
LEASE keep this important fact in mind; throughout the sea
son this is the one Store that has been able to say and to back
up the statement we have the -goods. It is true to-day, as it was
in November. Of course, our stock of Clothing is not so large
now as we have sold thousands of both Suits and Overcoats.
But we have thousands remaining a great, well-assorted, all-inclusive
collection, a much larger stock than ever before in January; bought
months ago, bought deliberately, bought when many dealers hesitated.
Ihe result has been
as we planned. Bold
though careful invest
ment of hundreds of
thousands of dollars
has kept our assort
ments complete, given
assurance to every cus
tomer that we have just
what lie wants when he
wants it and at a price
less than current mar
ket value.
The man who desires
he finest kind of
American or English
Overcoat, or the best
and smartest kind of
Suit, will find it here,
and almost invariably
at a lower price than
the same grade would
cost anywhere else. For
example, see these
Montapnac Overcoats
at $87.50; our fine
Hockanum Overcoats
at $58.50; beautifully
tailored Oxford Over
coats, full silk-lined, at
$60.00; the Hockanum
Silk - mixture Suits at
$70.00; Blue Unfin
ished Worsted Suits at
$55.00; Winter Serge
Suits, extra weight, at
$45.00.
The above sugges
tions are for men who
insist upon the finest,
who should know that
they may depend upon
this Store at ALL
TIMES in other
words, that we have the
poods.
In these special groups are included our standard
makes of Clothing from the STEIN-BLOCH CO., HART,
SCHAFFNER & MARX and the makers of "ALCO"
CLOTHES, as well as the thoroughly reliable grades from
other manufacturers from whom we buy constantly.
All the following lots are marked at less than our
own regular prices :
Stein-Bloch, Hart, Schaffner &
Marx and Other Fine Makes of I ft i C f
Suits and Overcoats ( $40.0U
THE SUITS aie of dark Oxford and light-patterned tweeds, and
smooth-woven cassimeres, and arc in smart styles for men and young
men. THE OVERCOATS include Ulsters, Ulsterettes and conservative
styles,
