Tho Democratic caucus will bo held In Herbert's hall this evening, when a burgess, Justice of the peace, tax col lector, and auditor will bo chosen. Avoca has undergone n siege of bad legislation during the fast few years and the result Is a marked Indebted ness, unpaid and underpaid teachers, unsightly electric poles nnd poor side walks. A council meeting every threo months seems to be a necessary evil. The man who remains nvvny from the polls Is ns marked as tho one who goes there nnd votes against his friend. The caucuses are left In the hands of boys, while the property holder remains awav awaiting the news. He Is the one who protests most loudly ngalnst high taxes, yet does not put himself about to bet ter this condition. A town of perhaps 4.DW) Inhabitants requires a little legis lation and the lack of It Indicates do cadence. Dr. Borge and Kdward Mui phy are candidates for burgess: J. J. Morahan and M. J. O'Malley for Jus tice of tho pence; John Moore, Michael Brogan, Edward Rcagnn nnd James Hurley for tax collector. The primar ies to elect minor ofllcors will bo hold at n later date.

After disposing of the usual amount of bills, the regular argument In re gaid to tho electric light bill was dis cussed. Mr. O'Boyle loudly protested against tho amount of tho bill, calm ing that tho company Is not comply ing with the contiact and that seveial lamps ate entiiely useless. Mr. Unw ind, the electrician, was present and 'explained tho difficulties In operating new nine hlnery, and this, together with the extra work of extending their tenl tory, caused some deficiency In the lighting of the town, but that in the nenr future everything would be llrst class. As In all previous cases, the bill was tabled. Mis. James Motton cnteitalned a party of friends at her home last Thursday In honor of her forty-second birthday, Tho day was pleasantly spent, many pietty Scottish songs being ren deted, as well us tho popular American airs.

Great White Sale of Muslin Underwear Notwithstanding the advance, on all goods, we have succeeded in getting together for this sale a grand assortment of such values as have never been offered in any other previous sale. We made arrangements for this sale away back during the last summer, when we were able to dictate prices to manufacturers who were anxious to keep their machines running during a natur ally quiet season. And the ceaseless industry of our weeks of work has culminated in merited success. We expect this sale to be the greatest we have ever had. Why ? Because money goes furthest here because women can be really satisfied with the Underwear we sell. Our qualities are what particular people want. Our prices are in perfect accord with the famous governing principle of this business the lowest the very lowest, Whether ycu have a mite to spend or a big amount, come here. The $5,00 garment is relatively as great a bargain as the one at 10c. We consider the purse of the wage-earner and the security box of the capitalist in all our mer chandising movements. The appeal is to the frugal and thrifty of every class. The charm of our Muslin Underwear is in thGir daintiness, good taste, fair making, fullness of size and the sanitary conditions under which we demand that the work shall be done. The one reason why you should buy at least a half year's supply right now is that you save considerable. Judge by the Cambric Coiset Covers at 10c carefully finished, even to -the button-holes. Judge by any garment that your trained eye will let you analyze. Plainer things are yours at about the cost of materials often less. The daintiest pieces you couldn't begin to make at home for the pi ice, if you count your time as of any value. A seamstress, to do her best, would run your costs double. "'" are ready. .
