Thanks are due the public for the immediate and tremendous responses to our announcements during this “*Clearing” sale. We ure satisfied to know that the public read our advertisements—and, best of all, believe in them. Why? Because they know we sdver- tise Just what we have: therefore always have what we advertion, Facts in reference to an “‘end in view" stimulate still further reductions. We are speaking of “RE- ‘MAINDERS” now—‘‘small lots,” ‘odds and ends," ‘broken sizes,” “‘short lengths” of perfect goods; also thipgs soiled, mussed or otherwise defaced. This character of goods, as we said s dey or so ayo, is bother- ‘some in stock taking. It's tedious to count and hand tocalculate, therefore every single thing of s ‘Rem- nant” nature, 20 matter how low it was marked at first, is now marked at half and less than half its original price.

BE SURE AND GET THE GENUINE. dyt-tu,th HE HAD A PISTOL, For Which He Was Fined $50 or Given ‘Thirty Days. This morning in the Police Court a yorng German, who was unable to speak or understand English, stood in the dock, there being a charge of concealed weap- ons against him. The weapon charged was a pistol of an old make,and through Police- man Sontag, who acted as interpreter, the prisoner said he had a pistol in his pocket when arrested. Charles Stenick was the name he had given, and Theodore Ur- ban, @ resident of this city, appeared as witness in the case. ‘ It appeared from the proof that Stenick, who came to this country only @ oe time ago, had met, wooed and won Ur- ban's sister, and Urban had advised his sis. ter that both she and the young man would be sorry six months after their marriage. This was not at all pleasing to Stenick, and he had so told his friends. On one occasion Urban met Stenick and saw the istol in his et. He advised him that e was violating the law, and warned him that if he persisted in carrying it he would get into trouble. The words of warning were not heeded by the foreigner for he continued to carry the weapon, and had it in his hip pocket with the muzzle of it pointed upward. He was near 4th and E streets southeast about 6:30 o'clock in the afternoon when complaint was made to Policeman Chas. H. jon, who was injured in attempt- ing to secure the pistol, as is stated else- where in the Star, The young man’s only a was that he carried the pistol for protection, for which Judge Miller fined him $50 or 30 days. —_ FOUR HUNDRED HOUSES WRECKED. Something About the Great Powder Explo- sion st Canton. ‘The New York Sun publishes a special dis- patch from San Francisco, giving the fol- lowing details of the powder magazine explosions at Canton on July 4 About 5 o'clock in the afternoon the in- habitants of the Sam Unil district, in which the magazine stands, were startled by a tremendous explosion, which was heard over a large area, and was followed by an enormous volume of smoke, quite darken- ing the sky. Very quickly it was known far and wide that a terrible calamity had oc- curred, and, although the extent has not yet been ascertained, it is feared that the Joss is very serious. Every village in the neighborhood was completely wrecked, and in a vill on the opposite side of th (ream which divided it from the factory several hundred houses were shattered. The total number of houses destroyed is approximated at 400, and, al- though no idea s been formed of the loss of life, it must be considerable. The catastrophe originated from a cook house near the magazine, which caught fire and rapidly spread ‘to the pow house. On hearing the explosion the in- habitants rushed out in great alarm, and further proclaimed the disaster by the beat- ing of gongs and bells, urging the vill to run into the fields for their lives. The mandarins were quickly informed and troops were sent for. A number of Chinese doctors and one European were ly on the scene of the explosion, rendering assist- ance to the wounded.
