The boarding house is con- ducted by a woman at whose caraest solicita tion tho names of both herself and her daughter, who figure conspicuously in the matter, are withheld. O'Hearn remained at the house one week and then departed for some other point to fill his stage en- gagement, He had been away but a short time when he - began to write letters to the girl in question, who, at the present is but fifteen years of age. At first, the letters were mercly of a love-mak ing nature, but gradually they became inter spersed with sentences. that foreshadowed the unhallowed aims on_the part of the writer. The child, in her innocence,ignorant of the import of the missives, showed one of them to hier mother, and asked what O'Hearnmeant. The mother at once re and info her dan not reply to O'Hearn's letters. Tn a few days another letter came. It bore the post- mark of Philadelphia. O'Hearn, as_before, speated the tale of love to the girl, and wanted her to go to Kansas City, where, he stated, his mother resided. The mother of the child later ascertamed that O’Hearn was to visit this city during the holidays and is now patiently awaiting nis arrival, upon _which oceasion she avows she will send abullet through his brain. BBut this is not all. She has applied to the government oflicials, and, for some time back the letters addressed to the girl have beeu intercepted and wiven to the former.

Omaha, N2b AN EXPLANATION, Hundreds of customers to whom we have sold overcoats during the past few weeks, expressed their astonishment and inquired how it is possible that such garments can be sold i the regular way at snch figures. To those and to thousands of others who cannot understand that this, and think the goods mustbe inferior because we sell them so cheap, we will explain that the reason lies only in the buying. The warm weather prevailing for the lastfew weeks has been especially disastrous to the clothing trade. Manufacturers are overstocked and discouraged, and to realize cash they offer goods at ruinous prices. This is the chance for the wide-awake and large retailer., Our ample resources enable us to take advantage of such opportunities, and thus itis that we are now offering Overcoats which were made up to re-~ tail at $15, $20 and $30, at one-half and less these figures. The over= whelming success which we have had with our overcoat sales, has emboldened our buyer, and induced him to make several big deals. We have opened during the past few days over \ 5,000 OVERCOATS AND ULSTERS. We intend to make just as quick work with them as we did with our All from first class manufacturers. first purchase, and if our former prices have created excitement, the figures we put on this still more. ;00D CHINCHILLA OVERCOATS, with heaviest serge lining, well made, at $3. houses ask $8 for such a garment.
