It has always been our custom to show an extensive assort- ment, but this year we have made greater preparations than ever, and the result Is the largest variety.we have ever shown. The cloth has been arranged in long rows of drapes, both in our Market sireet and Powell and Eddy street stores. view the display, even though vou only wish to get an idea as to what the spring styles are. E have goods at all prices, but call your particular attention to our splendid assortment at $10.00 and $13.50. The variety at these prices shows that you do not have to pay a big price to get a suit in the latest spring pattern. . To be well dressed is, after all, as much a matter of judgment as of money. It merely involves good judgment in, selecting a reliable value at a price consistent with the quality. Our prices are low—that is evident to any one familiar with the quality of our work and materials. The clothes are reliable— this is shown by the guarantee mentioned below. VEN though the prices are low, the clothes are stylish, because they are tailored by craftsmen—workers who combine intellect with their work—men whose minds have been trained to. think, as well as their hands to work in their chosen occupation. The result is: The garments have an air of distinction about them —a finish and quality that distinguishes them as stylish and dressy. There is a harmonious selection of linings and trimmings to com- bine with the-fabric, which makes the clothes pleasing in effect. HIS is our guarantee: If the garments do not fit to your entire satisfaction we will make you another suit at no extra cost, or, if preferable, refund your money. Money back is If you are satisfied with the gar- VINA THIEVES ARE AT WORK Postoftice Is Broken Into and More Than Two Thou- sand Dollars Carried Away (LA AT RED BLUFF, March 11.—Some time last night the postoffice at Vina, this county, was broken into and robbed. The amount claimed to have been se- cured is about $2000, $700 of which be- longed to depcsitors and the balance to the Postoffice Department. The rob- ber or robbers effected an entrance through a reuxjoor by breaking out the - glass. A“small sheetiron door between the hall and the postoffice was opened with a cold chisel and the rob- ber did not have to use force on the safe, whieh was a small one, but he worked the combination, showing familiarity with the lock or that he was an expert. No clew is advanced nor is the hour of the robbery known. The night was stormy and the streets were nearly deserted. The registry window was also broken open, which leads to the theory that more than one person participated. e e will entertain her friends by a discus- sion of “Parsifal,” with interpretation. “Parsifal” has come to mean as much to Gothamites as their daily bread. « = Miss Helen Bowie gave a luncheon to twelve friends in honor of the much-feted Miss Frances Harris, who has promised her hand to Ernest S.

FLEEING THUG IS CAPTURED Three Men Rob Keeper of | loon at Point of Revol-| ver and Run for Freedom | T e ‘ A bold hold-up in the Mission shortly | after 6 o'clock last night resuited in | the capture of one of three men that | entered the grocery and saloon of Edward Ringe, 2862 Mission street. At the time mentioned three men | walked into the saloon, where Albert/ Ringe, son of the proprietor, was in| attendance, and called for three glasses | of beer. While young Ringe was in the act of drawing the beer he was ordered by one of the three, who flour- ished a revolver, to throw up his hands and keep his mouth shut. The young | man obéeyed with alacrity and one of the thugs walked behind the bar,, opened the cash register and extract- ed §8. 5 Ringe was then backed up against the billiard table and one of the rob- bers proceeded to search his pockets. At that juncture the elder Ringe, hear- | ing the unusual noise in the saloon, | came downstairs from the living apart- | ment, which is over the store. Hearing him coming down the stairs, the rob- bers beat a retreat. They bolted out of the door and ran up Twenty-fifth street to Bartlett, running along that | street to Twenty-fourth, where they eparated: Just as they turned into| wenty-fourth street, John Henderson, | who lives at 3347 Twenty-fourtlr street. caught sight of one of the fellows, who held a pistol in his hand, and gave chase. Henderson was told to keep at | a distance or he would get shot. This threat caused him to slacken his pace, | but, nevertheless, he kept sight of the fleeing criminal, giving the alarm as/| he followed. | Thg alarm attracted the attention of | W. H. Brucoe, a bootblack, whose | stand is on the street. Brucoe stepped | out and tripped up the fleeing thief, throwing him to the sidewalk. Before | he had gained his footing, Policeman | James Doran was on top of him and | placed the handcuffs on his wrists and.’ took him to the Seventeenth street sta- | tion, where he was charged with rob- | bery. The pistol was found on the street, where he threw it while being pursued. The arrested man gave the name of Alfred Reynolds, but this is! fictitious, as he was recognized as Al- | fred Smith, whose brother. J. C. Smith, keeps a saloon at Twenty-fifth and Church streets. When searched at the | station $6 40 was found on him. Smith is well known to the police of .00 $ and | & et ! the Mission district. 13 W« SAETENED- FROM LI SOLDIERS ARE ORDERED TO LEAVE TELLURIDE Governor Peabody Declares Martial Law at an End in Colorado Min- ing District.
