Gentlemen :
A few words on Underwear if you please. There's
everything that you can think of in that line in our
Men's Underwear Department, and more of it to
select from than can be found in any other three
s,tores in this city. Enough said on that score.
To-day we particularly ask your atteution to
"Otis" and Mercer
ized Underwear
"Otis" Gusseted Momar,
the kind that allows you all the freedom in exercise
that an active man can desire, but fits as simply as
though twere skin tight.
. "Otis" Underwear is made from the famous Sea
Island Cotton in medium and light weights in Bal-
briggans or Lisle Thread finish. Also iu fine light
pure wool weaves.
'Otis" Underwear is best. No other make is just as
good. Make a note of that fact.
MERCERIZED UNDERWEAR
possesses all the appearauce aud properties of Silk
but it is in reality Cottou, prepared by this new aud
beautiful process,
All sizes, two shades, (flesh tint aud pale blue)
proper spring weight. Finish as fitie as genuine
Silk.

like a dog kennel full of Howelts.
Kmrys Joseph sang "The llluo nnd
the Orny" nnd rcceUcd nn encoto, and
Kred V.'eltus' rendition of ".My Han
nah Lndy" made a decided hit. Ho
received a bunch pf lettuce when re
siondlng to nn encore. Churlla Her
tine sang sweetly ".My Lady au,"
and was presented with n bouriuct of
ihubaib by admiring ft lends. Sam
Lewl, attlied as n street car conduc
tor, -ang his ttniisfcr song In pleas
ing style, and David Jones' rendition
of ".My Creole Sue," together with the,
11. C. W. trio, was well received.
Albert D.ivles' song, "I Won't Ho
nn Actor Xu Stoic," made a hit and
he was compelled to jespond to an
encore, and Clunks Htoi ms' rendition
of ".Mollle, 1 Love You," was one of
the best thlnps of the evening. lua
Wolm-s. ns tho I'nglirli chappie, re
ceived three encores and sung in ex
cellent voice. Tho singing of "Hluo.
Hyes," by David Owens was also a
pleasing number nnd rccitVed wcll
nieilt applause. Hut Hilly Williams'
coon song caught the ciowd and it
seemed ns though they couldn't g"'t
enough of It.
The ginnd llnale was a decided nov
lty. Introducing the entire company
in a stiong chorus, with band accom
paniment In the olio Walsh and Mc
Donough cxetUtrd u double clog dance
In it clever manner, the H. C. W quar
tctto sang a pleasing number, Master
Walter Deckelnlck lendeied coon
snug" and Hny I-'urinun did a specialty.
The parallel bar performance of Al
beit Hcnne and C,. A Williams was
the best number In the olio, and Albsrt
Davis sang "Itoek-n-Hye- Haby, I Love
You," by lequcst. The rendition was
well iccelved. A social was after
wauls held nnd onloyed by many
young people. It Is quite probnble that
the pe. fonnunco will be repeated.

That there Is a strong probability of

by substituting for this balance the
judgments and Incidentals fund as tho
source from which their salaries shah
be provided,
Mr, Keller's desire to bavp a better
