F REEL AND TRIBUNE. VOL XV. NO 153, All Steps of Men Can be fitted and suited here. We have clothes made for the "hard to fits" and we fit them. Many stout and slim men who give up trying to buy clothes ready made, come here and find exactly what they want. If you are an extra tall, short or fat man come and see what we can do for you. We'll surprise you with the clothes; possibly more with the prices—for, being unusual in shape, you've had to pay a penalty to your tailor. We do away with that and charge you no more than we do the ordinary built man.

Mrs. Ferry is unable to explain how she was shot, as she saw no one bofore she re ceived the wound, but heard revolver shots while passing through the swamp. Her wound is painful, but is not regard ed as dangerous. Shortly after 12 o'clock Officer Molik found three boys shooting from a revol ver near the scene where Mrs. Ferry was injured. Two of these were arrest ed and the other lad escaped. A num ber of 38-calibro bullets were found in their pockets. The boys were placed in the borough lockup, but refused to give their names.

The Ridge street viewers had selected tomorrow as the day for their view, and the Centre and Pino street viewers were to meet on Friday.
