cluding many ladies. The most interested
spectator was West's aged father, Mrs. Grif
fiths and Pror. A. Crouch, a daughter and
son, respectively of the murdered couple.
The monotony of the trial was broken occa
sionally by the usual tilts between counsel.
The Commonwealth continued its case

nesses out of 75 called. The testimony in
troduced yesterday afternoon, in reference to
the tracks between the Crouch home and

A large number of witnesses were examined
who had been present when the shoes were
fitted into the tracks, and not a few testified to
having seen West jroing to Monongahela City

lncnds. On the morning after they had ar
rived in Monongahela City, West started out
from the Gamble House with a satchel.

THE NEW
TARIFF BILL
WENT MO EFFECT
Monday, October .6
By the operations of this law, the
prices of many lines of goods, both
foreign and domestic, are sure to
advance. Now, we are not specu
lators burselves, neither aret we
alarmists, and we do not ask or ex
pect that our customers will specu
late in such lines of goods as we
carry; nor purchase such quantities
as they may not require for imme
diate use. The Policy that we have
adopted is and will continue to be
as follows: In anticipation of the
passage of the New Tariff Bill, dur
ing the summer and early fall, we
have placed orders for a somewhat
larger stock of goods than was our
usual custom; of course, these goods
were all bought at the old prices,
all of which we shall continue to
sell at the old prices, not making
any advance whatever in the prices
of anything that we now have in our
house or that is yet to come in on
old orders, but it is simply business
and to be expected, that when we
have disposed of our present stock
and have to replenish at the ad
vanced cost, that the retail prices
will most assuredly have to be ad
vanced in accordance therewith, so
that we would advise our customers
to at once make purchases of such
articles in our line as they will want
for immediate, and use in the near
future. These statements are facts
and are worthy of your considera
tion, and it is needless for us to say
that it would be to your interest, if
you are in want of anything to profit
thereby. By keeping this thought
before you, "all goods at the old
prices until they are sold," "new
goods purchased at the advanced
prices, of necessity will cause ad
vanced rates to the consumer"
you will thus be led to take our
advice.

WHY WE DIFFER
From other clothing establishments can be told in very few words.
The class of goods we buy and sell are bought from merchant tailors
who pay their journeymen tailors good prices for making them up,
and they are thoroughly inspected before receiving them, and if by
some mishap it does not fit the customer, then it's left on the
merchant tailor's hand.'
Our Purchasing Agent
Comes quietly along and sees them, makes the tailor a reasonabla
offer (which is generally accepted), and the property is ours for a
MERE PITTANCE.
There's no use to dwell on the merits or demerits of factory
made clothing for you have tried them and find from experience
that they will not give satisfaction.
