Great Sale of Muslin Un
derwear, Sheets and Pillow
Cases, White goods, Em
broideries and Linens.
THIS has become THE BIG STORE'S greatest
event of the year. We have looked forward with
the greatest preparation for hoiiio months to this
event. Selling of Imported and domestic Summer
Cottons right at the threshold of winter may seem a
little strange and'yet it is one of the features of this
store and has added very largely in making THE
BIG STORE what it i. Upon investigation you will
find it just as sensible as it may may seem strange at
first Bight.
A year ago we entered upon this unprecedented
plan and it proved to bo a great success in its infancy.
By the enthusiasm already manifested on the part of
many of our patrons we are convinced that you will
recall with pleasure the first White Goods and Mus
lin Underwear display in the middle of winter. This
year we have made unusual preparation and have
added the lines of Sheets and Pillow Cases, Embroid
eries and Linens. With all reserve and respect for
truth, we can promise you a display beginning
Tuesday, Jan. 1,
that is far beyond anything that we have ever at
tempted. Let us urge upon you to see our display
before the different lines are broken in size and price.
We are not responsible for theedisappointmenta which
always result after some good sizes are sold out.

his mothor and other mem Iters of his
family.
For soveral years ho travelled with n,
company of musicians, chiefly gentle
men of Ills long acquaintance. His trav
elling took him over tho greater part
of the United Htates. One feature that
ho often remarked about in his travels
was his trip through California and tho
Ciolden Gate. He was an admirer of the
ditTurent sconic effects, as ho was quick
to comprehend anything of nature's
works.
He was a natural born musician and
began his musical career in early boy

high degreo of efficiency.
Ho was a member of the Keystone
band and Star Orchestra at time of bis

was mannerly and gentlemanly ut all
times. Was alwavs humorous and view
ed tho bright side of life, which tnudo
Dim a favorite with all.
Tho family of tho deceased were all
attentive to him In his last hours, tho
brothors remaining at bis bcdlilo in
the trying ordeal till the last and sad
moments.
Fred was not a profossnd christian, but
believed m a supreme liolng and a re
Bpocter of tho word of God.
A short funeral service was held at

James R. Zelglor, a traveling buIos
maa of this place, reached town lust
evening after passing through a thrill
lng experlenco a few miles from town.
On tho Ueynoldsvlllo road ho was sot
upon by three men, beaten, gagged ana
robbed of 1100, and, according to his
own story, narrowly escaped with bis
life.
The affair took place quite early in
the evening and was at a lonely placo
along tho road. Tho men iummid from
tho side of tbe road, grabbed the horse
and II red several shots at Air. Zelgler,
one of which grazed the sldo of his face
and burned his hair. Unablo to cope
with tho unequal forces, ho was obliged
to submit to u gagging and bands and
foot ttelng operation.
The robbers went through his pockets
and seourod cvory bit of money he bad,
a sum stated by Mr, Zoiglor to bo not
