ALL GONE.
Oar Catalogue lor this season ars all gone. We have sent
out eventy-flv thousand ol them altogether and nor one
baa been sent to a man who did't auk (or it or who name
wfin'ton our book. We don't sell good to everybody we
Ind a catalogue to. but we should. Tbe reasons wby we
dou't are becaoss some people are no Judges of goods and
tbey think our prloee are too cheap. Other want to get
trusted or want a dlwount and we don't either glre discount
or trust. Others again hare got "bit" by ordering good
from tbe catalogue ol eotne crooked concern (there are etlll a
few hilt) and they think that all boune that send out catalog
ue are alike. We ain't worrying. W will get all thee people
after n while. When we started to do a tnall order business
six year ago we didn't have a elngle customer. Now we hare
avriv thoii.and and we will gain seventy thouaaud more in
the next eiz year. Square dealing, low price and honest
wearing good rre the sure magnet to build up a trade,

Admiral Carjientcr hit perfected
tint arrangement to lund the prlMOii

On the way up from Hiintlugo, a
number of the Hpanlau seamen wild
that they hod enough of lighting, at

with representative of this pre,who
went out to the Ht. Loul on a tug.
"You unk me," he wild, "how I like
America, and I answer that I have al
way liked, and I may any, loved your
people, but thl war ha been a duty
with me and the men under me. I
knew that the American fleet dear
ly outclassed us, but it won a queiitlon
of fighting either Inside or outside the
harbor. I have many friend In Am
erica, Bnd hove only the kindliest feel
i...n lor mem, out every man no a
Voanlnnls tried to erfonn thai duty.
There ba been much feeling in Hpufu
and I want all Hpaln to know the
truth; that every hlp of my und

could do no more we surrendered.

exact situation in Hpaln. Captain

any one could poslbly bo treated, My
