In a suit Hrought by the defendant in that action to “oreclose his lien upon the real estate for saxes paid under his purchase, and_against the zruntees of A, it was held, That the Judgment of re 1in the former case was not a bar to either party, and that a decree ot foreclosure would be rendered in favor of PUintiff for the amount to which he was en- titled by law. 2.

Our great clearance sale offers the greatest inducements ever heard of. In Men’s and Boys' Overcoats, you will find that one dollar expended now will go further than a dollar-and-a-half a month ago. It will pay you to buy an Over- coat and put it away for next winter. You can't make a better invest- ment. Prices never were so low and in many instances are cut in two. Overcoats that used to sell for $4.50, $7 and $9,are now offered at $2.50, $3.50 and 85. We don’t mean to have a single overcoat left. All must go. Another bargain to which we draw attention are odd pants. At the end of every season we always have left a good many suit pants. Eve- rybody knows how cheap we are selling pants, but our suit pants are always marked far below their value. What is left of them now is taken out of the regular stock and placed on separate tables, and the way these pants are marked ought to clear them very quick. Goodheavy all wool cassimere pants in nice plain patterns, at $1.50, which are ac- tually worth $3 and more. Among them is a lot of extra fine corkscrew pants, marked $3.25, $3.50 and $3.50; every pair is worth more than double. All goods marked in plain figures and at strictly one price.
