The only uncommon thing about
this stnie Is its uncommonness. Our
methods differ at the selling end as
well ss the buvlng end. For Instance
when yini go into an agency store
the salesmsn shows you a garment or
two and puts up a line ol talk some
thing like this: "Here, all, Is a Blank
brand garment, doesn't it look swell?
What, never heard of Blank brand.'
Why you ought to lead their adver
tising it tells you how good they
re. How will the suit wear, you say?
WeJl, It should wear fine, because
the mskers of Blank brand clothes eay
they are fine. Anyway If you are not
satisfied you can write to them; they
guarantee these clothes." When you
come here our salesmen say: "These
are Klng-Swanson clothes. We buy
the fabric for them, our designers
cut and drspe ibsm to the living
model our tailors make them and we
guarantee them. if anything goes

VITFIRBO, Italy, April 7. Aaain today
tha trial of the Camorrlsts was Inter
rupted when Ciro Vltouzt. the scoused
prlast, weakened by a fast, fainted. He
was under Interrogation anT had worked
himself into such a stats of mental and
physical exhaustion that he tumbled over
against the steel bars of the prisoners'
cane.
lawyers snd carabineers rushed to his
ssslstance and ln the confusion President
Planchl declared the slttlna suspended. At
the same time the court ordered VltozH to
break his fast with the yolks of half a
dozen eK.
The climax came opportunely for Vltozsl,
following his declaration that he had ab
stained from food for forty-elaht hours. He
had been telling a story of his alleged
persecution In prison snd the recital waa
not without dramatlo effect.
"With me In my cell." said the priest,
"was a lock of hair from the head of that
holy soul, my mother. This waa taken from
me on the order of a magistrate, who In
sisted that the hair was that of some
womsn companion of mine. What non
sense! Why, It was even gray. Can any
one imagine a greater profanation?"
Fnata Forty-F.laht Honrs.
Here the accused man Invoked the soul
of his mother In support of his statement
and the recollection of what he described
as the Insults to her memory overwhelm
ing him, he was seized with a fit of weep
ing. Between his sobs he cried out:
"I hare been fasting for forty-eight
hours, supported during my whole Inter
rogation by divine power." With these
words lie collapsed.
Giovanni Hapl was not present when the
trial was resumed this morning. His physl
clnn certified that he waa suffering from
a sore throst as a result of having "cried
too much during his Interrogation."
The proceeding, opened with the recall of
Vltnzzl. The prisoner described attempts
wliieh he said had been made to make him
appear guilty of complicity ln the murder
of Oennaro Cuocnolo and his wife. While
he wad In prison, he said, he mas con
fronted with a man who offered him X
to denounce certain persons as guilty of
the fuoccolo a.s.-aw!nttUon, adding that If
It was neceiwary he would-aend the priest

Vltozzl said he d'd not know the man who
approached him and whose name as given
him was fictitious.

The prisoner told of the alleged abuse of
him ry the examining judges during his
preliminary examination and while he was
Pi prison. Judge I'etila, ha said, had In
'!'trl him tulllng him "a Camorrlst pig."
"This" raid Vitozzl, "was cowardly,
ravage and Inhuman, while the Judge ought
to rrpref-ent honesty. "
Crowing more excited Vltoczi shouted:
"Those Judges trampled not only on the
human, but in the divine law. I reminded
them that they must die, saying 'beware,
brware the anathema."
I rglng the priest to calm himself. Presi
dent Panihl Inquired whether he knew
Gennaro Abbatrrragsio. the informer.
"No," replied Yltoui, who added:
"All the statements ef Abbatetnajcglo are
false. I a III ak him to swear on the ashes
of his father and on ths aahan of his dead

At this thrust.' Ahbatemaggla. who had
Il.vL.ned calmly from his solitary rage,
broke his usual Impassibility of manner

"I will swear on anything yoo pleas.
Fni-aed, Vitozzl turned on his arner

Three big, modernly equipped floors dedicated to the use
of a modernly conducted establishment for the tale ef
men's and boys clothes.
In the beginning the size, beauty ami convenient
arrangement of this store attracted attention. It stood
alone. Today it stands out strong by contrast. Not only
is it the most artistic clothing stwre in the west, but it
is one ol the largest in the country, and the largest in
this vicinity. Not only is it the only modern clothing
store in appearance and appointment, but it is the only
one modern in methods the only one that differs from
other stores at the buying end and the selling end
the only one that has raised a real issue in clothing
store practices in 2o years.
It is a clothing store for you
It serves its customers instead of serving soma
manufacturer in the capacity of selling agent. It buys
its fabrics and directs the making of its garments, if
deals with you, man to man. It serves itself by first
serving you. It stands out in the open, boldly declaring
its purposes and intentions, and defying the world to
disprove its assertions to be the best place to buy the
clothes you wear. These are the modern methods we
often speak about. Do you approve of them?

Crowds Four Into Streets.
NEW TORK. April 7.-A heavy bomb was
exploded In front of the basement door
on West Forty-fifth street, between Sixth
avenue and Itroadway. ln the very center
of the all-night district, at o'clock this
morning. The terrific report larred the
whole neighborhood for fifteen blocks
around, and the force of the explosion
blew ln the basement doors of the chop
house snd shattered all the windows. No
one was hurt.
In the Hotel Lyzum, near bv, the tele
phone operator was blown from his stool
and stunned by the fall and the guests
came piling downstairs In a panic. From
apartment houses near the scene scantily
dressed crowds poured onto the pavements,
surveyed the damage done and went to
bed again.
The police have a theory that the ease
Is one of spite work against the owner of
the house and not an ordinary Black Hand
bomb throwing.
