And these “left overs” are ofttimes from the choicest goods of the various iines—the quickest sellers. It isn’t the goodness of the article, however, but its poorness as merchandise (because of littleness or loneliness) that regulates the price. Shorter the length, smaller the quantity—greater the price reduction. Remnants accumulate very rapidly, and we cannot push them aside or pile them-up. Hence to make the quickest possible clear- ance prices are made half and less. Many rare bargains for tomorrow, and special attention is called to the Wrap Department.

The complaint against the widow is insanity. When Mrs. Lount’s mission here was made known Tuesday be- cause of her visit to police headquarters, people who had received letters frum her made complaint to the detectives. Among those who received letters from the wo- man was one of the most prominent min- isters in the city. When these complaints were received Inspector Hollinberger con- cluded to arrest her. One of the persons who entered complaint against her feared she might do some harm. She called at the detective office yesterday morning be- cause she felt offended at a newspaper ar- ticle, and it was after this visit that com- plaint was made about her. Late yester- day afternoon she called again and then she was put under arrest. Then she com- plained bitterly of the conduct of the offi- cers in making the arrest, and said she woulc call on some of her “senator chums” to help her out.

The second night of the carnival, which is now being given at the Masonic Tem- ple by the Woman's Republican Associa- tion. was a much more successful one than the opening on account of the difference in the weather between Tuesday and last evening.

R. Phillips acted as the chairman of the even- ing, and during the early portion several prominent republican speakers addressed the gathering. Mrs. J.
