Remodeling and Reorganization Sale.
With the beginning of the Fall season there will be a change made in this firm, and our store
house will have to be entirely remodeled. The back wall will have to be removed to give us larger
store room by about one-third of our present capacity, and other changes will be made within, ne-
cessitated by the large volume of business which we had during the past season, and which we ex-
pect to have in a larger degree during this coming fall.
We here submit a list of prices so low that we feel satisfied of clearing out a vast lot of goods*
We must have the room to make our changes and we are going to have it*

Stomach and Liver Tablets when she
felt an attack coming on. Such attacks
are usually caused by indigestion and

off the approaching attack. Attacks
of bilious colic may be prevented in
the same way. For sale by Key Bros.
The Y. M. C. A. camp was
closed Friday and the boys were
all well pleased with their visit to
Lampasas. They have a proposi-
tion out for another visit here at
the same season next summer,
which will probably be accepted
by our people. They desire about
the same accommodations that
they have had this year, with
possibly a few additional specifi-
cations. It is possible that the
contract cannot be made with
them until some one has secured
the grounds for another year, as
the property may pass into other
hands before the time for their
annual encampment.

Elections on the prohibition
qustion are to be held in some ten
counties in the state of Texas in
the near future. The following
dates have been taken by the
counties mentioned: Bowie,
August 25; Upshur, August 29;
Nacogdoches, September 3; An-
derson, Sept. 3; Brown, Palo
Pinto, Henderson, and Kaufman,
September 5; Wilson, September
9; Runnells, September 10; Elgin
precinct, Bastrop county, no date
given. As the commissioners
were in session all over the state
both this and last," week, it is
probable that other counties will
avail themselves of the privilege
of voting on this question at ear-
ly dates.
T. S. Traweek has demonstrat-
ed what this section can do when
it has a chance in the way of
raising June corn. He was
around Saturday and Monday
selling roasting ears from his
crop, and they were fine, indeed.
He has several acres of this corn
which were planted at the right
time, and will have the market
supplied for a time. Mr. Tra-
week always makes a success of'
what he undertakes.
Rey. John A. Arbuckle, pastor
of the Baptist church, at Taylor,,
Texas, spent a few days of this,
week with his son," Theodore Ar-
buckle, of this place. He reports
that there is still great excitement
at Taylqr and throughout Wil-
liamson bounty on the question
of prohibition, and that the grand
jury will yet probably return
many more indictments against
various and sundry persons for
illegalities in connection with the
recent election in that county.
