fllVf At Six South Fourth St.
GW JLIWa _ y (2 Doors From Market St.)
I will open to-morrow morning at 8 o'clock,' Saturday, March the 6th, my new idea of Clothing Store, the
watchword of which will be quality, with volume of business. I have a number of new ideas, which will pre
vail throughout the entire store. lam showing in my South Fourth Street Store the finest quality of Spring
merchandise at positively and absolutely the following prices—at SIO.OO, at $12.50 and at $15.00. The old
way—a clothier advertised prices in the newspapers, had prices in his windows and on entering his store had
some method whereby he showed you finer goods, better linings or some such idea in order to get you to
raise your price. My new way means courteous clerks standing around to take your order—you are to be the
salesman—there will be absolutely but one price in this store, and at any of the above-menttoned prices the
quality of cloth will be based on prices of $25 and S3O suitings.
I guarantee to every customer that the woolens in any style suit displayed in my new store will be equal
to those shown by any s2s—s3o suit—absolutely all wool and worsted. I guarantee any suit of clothes
you buy for the life of the garment. Positively no extra charge for full Dress Suits.

misery inflicted upon mankind by one

And he added that it was the business
of wise and good men to set themselves
against the spirit that produced irars—
"this passion for military glory."

' THE CARNEGIE UNDER. FULL SAIL
One of the longest voyages ever undertaken was begun when the nou-magnetic yacht Carnegie weighed anchor
and passed out of the Narrows, In New York Bay. on a cruise which is expected to take her to both the northern
and southern extremities of the globe. A southerly course will be laid to the Panama Canal, thence in a northerly
direction to the Arctic Circle, where several months will be spent. The next leg of the voyage will lake the vessel
to the Antarctic. The vessel will be gone about two years. The Carnegie Is operated by the Carnegie Institute, of
Washington, and is being used to determine the origin and the varied distribution of the earth's magnetic currents.
The yacht is an auxiliary brisantine and was placed in commission in April, 1900. She is commanded by Captalu

EUROPE'S GIRLS LACK CANDY
Sweet Exports From U. S. Cut Down 1
—Bean Retaliation?
New York, March s.—The girls
they 'left behind them when the Brit
ish Tommy, his French colleague and
his German eneniv went off to the war
have suffered a good deal more than
has been supposed up to this time.
The candy export figures from this
country prove it. Europe curtailed the
bean supply of the United States wh«u
Austria's exports were stopped. Now
America has retaliated by reducing the
quantity of c-audy sent to tho Old
World.
The first five months of the war
caused a decrease of $103,823 in the
value of candy exports from the Unit
ed States, as compared with the same
period of the year before. The value
of the total exports of candy for the
calendar year was $1.155,594.

GRAIN CAES TIE UP TAEDS
Shipowners Unwilling to Take Risk of
Carrying Wheat Abroad
Jersey City, X. J., March 3.—A tie
up at the West Shore railroad yards at
of about 3,000 oars, most
ly loaded with wheat, is attributed by
railroad and marine interests here to
the unwillingness of ship owners to risk
their craft because of war zone condi
tions that have prevailed during the
last two weeks. Two grain elevators
holding a total of about 400,000 bus
hels are filled. Only one shipment has
been made during the last fortnight, a
Norwegian steamer having sailed with
ISO,OOO bushels of wheat and other
grain.
Before the German war zone notifi
cation was issued grains reaching the !
yards from western points were for
warded quickly. Of late, however, ship
owners have hesitated in attempting
deliveries.

POOR BOX ROBBED
Whalebone With Glue On End Is Found
On Church Prisoner
New York, March s.—Joseph Dim
onte, 28, of 155 Smith street, Brook
lyn, was arrested late yesterday after
noon in the Church of St. Francis De
Cliantile at Thirteenth avenue and
Fifty-seventh street, charged with at
tempting to rob the poor box.
A whalebone with a lump of glue on
the end and a bag containing f'J.3;!
was found on him. He was locked up
in the PiJurth avenue police station on
a technical charge of petty larceny.
The Rev. Charles MeCallion, assist
ant rector of the church, saw Dimonto

FOUE-YEAR-OLD BOY A HERO
Williamsport Lad Saves Life of Young
er Brother
Williamsport, March 5. —George
Stanley, the 4-year-old son of Mr. and
; Mrs. R. D. Stanley, was acclaimed a
hero yesterday when he saved his 2-
year-old brother from burning to death.
The two children were alone in the
house, Mrs. Stanley having gone on an
errand to a neighbor's home. While
playing with a celluloid ruler, the
younger boy stuck one end of it in the
stove and the rule burst into flames,
I setting fire to his clothing. Seeming to

what was necessary to be done, George
quickly threw him on the floor and pick
ing up a rug threw it over him, smoth

author of "Baby Mine," gives the situ
