A Syracuse special to the Xews-Ieal-er
sys: "The sensational trial In the
suit brought by Kev. Philip A. Hubert,
a colored clergyman of Wllkea-Barrv.
resulted In a verdict In Hubert's favor
In this city tonight. Suit was brought
by Hubert to recover tm.M for a libel
ous article published in the Courier In
this city, about a year ag Hubert
came to this city about a year ago and
preached several times In a prominent
church and each time secured large
contributions fur Livingstone college,
at Salisbuiy, N. C which he claimed to
represent. After collecting the money
Hubert left the city and was not seen
nor heard of for a long time. People
then feared they had been duped and
an article was published In the Courier
alleging him to be a fraud and a swind
ler. Hubert finally became aware of
the article and forced the Courier to
publish a retraction. He afterwards
befran the suit which ended today in a
complete vindication of Hubert.
"The trial lusted three days and was
quite sensational In 'many respects. Kx
Judge A. W. Tenney. a prominent New
York and Brooklyn attorney, prosecut
ed the case for Hubert. The plaintiff
is an intelligent appearing colored man
and had quite the air of a distinguished
person. He was very much elated over
the result of the trial."

trouble is that many men have not the ready money.

for cash. The price is the same whichever way you buy.
The important thing to remember is that our garments are
up-to-date, reliable and good in every way, Come in and
see the stock.
