This is it in a Nutshell: We want more folks to know what a full and complete store we have, what economy there is in trading here and how liberally they are treated. We are sure they would like to buy here right along after they have found out that it is to their interest. We are so sure they will that we are willing to get along with less profits for a month in order to get them started. | Hale’s. | USUALLY SOLD AT 25¢, 6c IF SENT BY MAIL, and you can choose from 100 different compositions, among which are Handicap March (vocal), by Geo.

The preparations are broader and the excellence of the goods deeper than we’ve ever had in previous sales. We were determined to give A CAUTION.

Henck of New York, who was sent to this city as local manager of the International Colony Company, has employed a New York detective agency to investigate the affairs of the company, and according to Henck and other people of San Bernar- dino and Riverside counties the Interna- tional Colony Company was organized not 10 induce settlers to come to California but to swindle unsuspecting folks who in- vested in the stock of the corporation. The International Colony Company was organized about a year ago by prominent men of New York. Its president was W. R. Townsend, a lawyer of prominence; its vice president, Matthew P. Brem, was a former State Senator and a writer of abil- ity; its secretary and treasurer, Arthur F. Carmody, was_secre of the Wells- Fargo Company Bank of New York, and the other directors were men of standing in the Eastern metropolis. The company was ors-nlud with a cap- ital stock of $500,000, and its purposes were to secure lands in California and induce settlers to locate upon them, to exchange California for Eastern property and to do other things. The directors secured eervices of W. H. Martin as general man- ager, and by his aid many shares of stock were sold. He induced R. A. Henck to put almost his last dollar into the company and to accept the position of manager of the California end of the company’s af- fairs. He promised to send Henck many settlers and to pay him a salary of $150 a month. He then induced W. C. Richards to go to New York and accept the posi- tion of manager of that end of the busi- ness. Henck came to Riverside and Rich- ards went to New York, and the officers and directors of the International Colony Company dropped out of sight. The local agent says he has paid all of- fice rent himself and has never received a cent’s worth of business or a dollar to- ward his salary since his arrival here, several months ago. His letters to the company have not been answered, and no Teply has been recelved to telegrams sent during the past two months. Henck has arrived at the conclusion that he is the dupe of swindlers. Many New York peo- ple and even some of the residents of this county purchased stock from the com- pany, and it is now said that they have nothing to show for the money they have expended except pieces of paper. —_— WENT LIKE THE WIND BUT NOT FAR ENOUGH Indian Thought to Have Gone One Hundred Yards in Nine Sec- onds Flat. COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Aug. 3.— During the athletic contests attendant upon the quarto-centennial celebration here to-day Candiras de Foya, a Ute In- dian, covered the course marked out as 100 yards in 9 seconds flat. The watches registered the time accurately enough, but the distance when measured was found to be less than 100 yards. Candiras de Foya is the hero of the Springs to-day, The world's professional 100-yard record is 92-5 seconds and the amateur record one-fifth of a second slower. The Ute's performance was sensational despite th Shortened course, oy ——— Chicago to Enter Drydock.

AR Special D!IDILMO The Call. ASTORIA, Or., Aug. 3.—The little town of Cathlamet, Wash., near this city, is greatly excited over a crime which was committed there Thursday night, when a man named Frank Hoffman assaulted Mrs. Johns, who is 75 years of age. Sher- iff Hogan and a posse are scouring the country for Hoffman and will capture him, dead or alive. There is little doubt that the fugitive will be lynched if he is captured at a place where the authorities cannot interfere. Mrs. Johns lives a few miles from Cathlamet, and was alone when the man entered her home. In the assault Hoff- man used a club and terribly beat the old woman. She was found yesterday morn- ing in an unconscious condition. It is thought Hoffman escaped across the river to the Oregon shore in a boat. The assailant of the woman is a French- man, with an unsavory reputation. Mrs. Jolns 18 beligved to have beon fatally\im: Appointed an Army Chaplain. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.—The Rev. Thomas J.

TWO EXPLORING SHIPS ARE CRUSHED IN THE ICE Arctic Fishermen Rescue Eight of the Survivors From a Small Island. CHRISTIANIA, Aug. 3.—Arctic fisher- men have arrived at Va.rdcie.l brln?'!‘ng eight survivors of the exploring ships Stioemmare and Familen, both of which were crushed in the ice near Nova Zem- bla. Their crews managed to reach a small island, and with the exception of six men, who attempted to escape to the southward and have not been since heard of, were rescued after fourteen days. Coal Miners Return to Work. HELENA, Mont., Aug. 3.—The labor troubles that have existed since last May at the coal mines owned by United States Senator Clark at Bridges, Carbon Coun- ty, have been settled and the men will re- turn to work. They are to receive 80 cents a ton for mining clean-screened coal from long-wall workings, and % cents a ton for mining from room and pillar work- ings. House rent is reduced and no dis- grimination against organized labor prom- sed. Court-Martial Finds Him Guilty. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3—The court- martial which recently tried Major Charles A. Doyen, fleet marine officer of the North Atlantic squadron at Newport, on the charge of intoxication and being absent without leave, found him guilty and sentenced him to lose two numbers and be reprimanded by the Navy Depart- ment. The papers in the case arrived here to-day and it is probable that the Acting Secretary of the Navy will issue the reprimand before the close of the de- partment this evening. Will Visit Augultlni;: Monastery. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.—Cardinal Mar- tinelli, the apostoiic delegate to this coun- try, will go to Villa Nova, the Augustinian monastery near Philadelphia, about the middle of this month and spend his vaca- tion of two or three weeks there. JUMP5 FROM OGEAN STEAMER Warren Lewis, a Well- Known Sporting Man, Commits Suicide. L RN NEW YORK, Aug. 3.—Warren Lewis, the well-known sporting man, jumped from the steamer Rhode Island on her trip from New York to Providence last night and was drowned. A boat was sent out, but after half an hour it returned from a fruitless search. Lewis was one of the most widely known sporting men in America. Besides being associated with John L. Sullivan he backed Jack Dempsey, Brooklyn Jim- my Carroll, Jack McAuliffe and Kid Mec- Coy. He also handled Jim Hall, the Aus- }ral‘}nn. when he fought Pritchard of Eng- jand. - Of late Lewis had been having a streak of hard luck and several bars and cafes which he started were financial failures. This made him despondent and before leaving New York on the Rhode Island he wrote a note saying he was going to commit suicide. Lewis' note was found by his son to-day, shortly before the news of the suicide reached this city. Poor Crop Prospect in Russia. ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 3.—The latest crop reports from the Kharkoff district are very bad. There is little grain or hay, and potatoes and other vegetables are backward.

SANTA BARBARA, Aug. 3.—The Gov- ernment tug Slocum arrived in port this afternoon after having scoured the coast in search of the drifting transport Len- nox. While here she recelved news of the safe arrival of the Lennox at San Francisco and the tug left immediately for the morth. WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.—The authori- ties here expect that salvage will be paid to the steamer Jaqua for towing the dis- abled transport Lennox into port. Some question may arise as to the responsibility of the Government. owing to the fact that the Tennox is a chartered vessel, and it may be held that the owners are responsi- ble for any accident which necessitates her being towed into port.
