It has only been afewdays since Pred Fitz- geraldreceived,sohe claimed,an honorable dis- charge from the regular army at Rushville, Neb. His title was sergeant major of the Seveath cavalry, Upon receiving his dis- charge Fitzgerald came direct to Omaha. Yesterday he was placed under ar by Detectives Savage and Dempsey, and itwas o good catch. The fellow admits that he burglarized Sam Snyder's jewelry store and the officers think they can also prove that Flitzgerald is a forger. They also sus- pect him of being the man who worked the grocery racket. He is an intelligent follow and a good penman. The detectives have been shadowing Mitz- gerald for several days. He was frequently seen in bad company and was getting ready to leave the city when vlaced under arrest at the California house on Douglas street, After being locked up Fitzgerald confessed that he had burglarized Sam Snyder’s jew- elry store and told the officers where he had dl;‘msml of the bm)ler. Thereis also evidenco that he forged the name of John Simpson and passed two $25- checks, one on the Continental elothing com- pany and the other on Browning, King & Co. The prisoner will not be arraigned until more detailed evidence is secured, Laterin the day the detectives learnedthat Fitzgerald was wanted in Sioux City, Cov- ington, Chicago and several other places in the United States as well as Canada. He then confessed that it had been six years since ho had been in the employ of the gov- ernment as a soldier. e RUSH'S ANNUAL.

Wehave no room for unseasonablg® stock. We have always made it a point to clean out at the end of each season, and are determined to do it this®ime. One of the secrets of our success lies in the fact that we start every season with an entire fresh stock. We do not allow any goods tobe carried over from one season to another. We know people will not buy overcoats in January unless the inducements are great but we are willing to give them the induce- ments. We are offering the entire balance of overcoats now at clear~ ance prices. When you bear in mind how close we sell goods every day in the year you will realize what our clearance prices mean. A bona fide reduction from our regular low prices means an uncommon opportunity to save money. You will findita big investment to buy a overcoat now, even if you do notget much use outofit this winter will pay you to keep it for next winter. CORK SOLE SHOES. This has been a poor season for all winter shoes. We have alot of excellent calf shoes with genuine cork soles, which we are forced to sacrifice. We offer these at $2.78. Every pair guaranteed. There is not a shoe storein the country that will think of seliing such shoes fop less than $4.80.
