Why pay $75.00 to $100.00 for a new ovei
coat when I can rebuild your old one for a fraction
of the price of a new one. After having it repaired, ,
cleaned and pressed you've got practically a new
coat at a nominal price. I am dyeing a great many
army overcoats in navy blue, dark brown and black.
They dye nicely. Look over your winter clothes
now. and have them put in shape to wear.

If the identification ot Wallace
correct, he h; the eiprhth official of
the i'u'if Kefininz ccinnany to be
killed in .Mexico and tie eighth
American to be killed since July '11,
1&19, when the state department
warned the Carranza government
that more killings of Americans
would lead to a chan.ee in policy of
this Kovernnnit toward .Mexico.
The following statement was is
sued by the state department:
'James Wallace, an American em
ploye of nn American oil company
near Tampico. as murdered by
Mexican fedcr;.! soldier at Portrero
Del Llano on Wednesday, November
T. The murderer was not taken in
to custody."
Crime in Cold Blood.
Accoidiiifr to the department's ad
vices the officers in charge of troops
camped in the vicinity claimed that
Wallace had provoked the murder.
"The department" has been in
formed as a result of an investiga
tion that a mule on which Wallace
was riding to the place of his em
ployment, thied at a machine gun
which it was passing, overturning
the gun. The soldier immediately
shot Wallace, the bullet striking him
i:i the neck and killing him instant-

Clyde MeClain. of Twin Falls. Ida
ho, was here over Sunday visiting
with relatives and old time friends.
Mr. MeClain paid the Courier o trice i
a pleasant call Monday morning and
left two dollars for a year's subscrip
tion to the Courier, which he order
ed sent to his Idaho home. Clyde left
Louisville about fourteen years ago
and settled on a piece of land near
Twin Falls. It was nothing but sage
brush and rattle snakes then but he
saw prospects ahead as there was already-
a movement on foot to irri
gate the land from Snake river,
which has since been accomplished.
When he settled there Twin Falls
was a small hamle.t but today is a
prosperous little city of ten thous
and inhabitants. Land could have
been brought at that time for but a
few dollars per acre which now
rhanires hands at from S250 to
$1,000 per acre.
Mr. MeClain was married after
locating in the west to a Cass coun
ty girl. Miss Bedella Smith, of Platts
mouth. They have a family of three j
children, a boy and two girts, lie
is enthusiastic over the possibilities
of irrigation and says he never has
to worry about rain for he can cause
it to rain on his crops at any time
he thinks they need it.
Mr. MeClain has not visited Iouis-
ville for six years and was pleased
at the evidences of prosperity in the
town of his youth. He returned home
Tuesday. Louisville Courier.
