Many lines of winter goods we began advertising right after Christmas are entirely closed out, but other
lines have taken their places, and still the bargain picnic goes on. By the end of this month not an
article of winter goods will be left in the house. ------------- ----------
This store ib rapidly shaking off its winter garb and donning more bright and beautiful
attire. In eve^y nook and corner spring goods are budding forth and when we have taken a

The Death of Depew.
No, Senator Depew’s heart has
not ceased to beat; his eyelids
have not been shut down; his
body is not rigid; he is not yet to
be sepulchured, says the editor
of the Kansas City World.
But the man whom the nation
has known and heeded and de-
lighted to honor is nevertheless
dead —dead to the power he once
weilded.dead to fame, dead to fur-
ther usefulness, or happiness.
Health, spirit and power are
gone out of him, as light has gone
out ot an extinguished lamp.
All that remains is a warning.
A people who long looked up to
Chauncey M. Depew with respect
and confidence, who merrily
laughed with him, and were
thrilled by his learned eloquence,
cannot repress the pity that
springs from the heart at his
plight today.
But pity, though generous even
to tears, must not blind us to the
vital lesson of this broken life.
We must see in it that there are
more ways to suicide than the
bullet, the poison, the dagger or
the rope—more certain ways to a
more complete death.
In this poor old man, blasted
and ruined at the eventide of his
long,bright day by his own greed,
God Almighty himself is preach-
ing to this nation one of His most
powerful sermons.
It is a sermon every young man
should hear and heed.
We may fool the preacher and
the priest; we may dodge the
sheriff and judge; but we cannot
get away from the supreme law
ahd its sure penalties.
The Depew we have known and
loved and laughed with is dead—
a suicide. The sparkle has gone
from hiseye, the sunny glow from
his face; the spring of his elo-
quence has dried up, and the
once bubbling jests have frozen
upon his cold lips.
The strength of a Samson is
shorne from him. Only a few days
ago the highest felt honor in his
friendship, and now the very
meanest of us all may laugh at
him.
Yes; there is suicide more com-
plete than that of the dagger or
Men’s $3.50 Shoes
Shoes that are honest through and through. The new lasts have
quite the style of a crack *5 shoe, but we don't pretend they are made
of as fine stuff. They’ll wear just as long though. We want men to
see our 83.50 shoes and note the newness of the styles—to try rhem on
and realize the comfort of their perfect fitting—to wear and realize
the splendid service they give. They’re the best 83.50 Shoes on earth.
LEWIS, The Shoe Man
the rope, and it rot only breaks
a man in body, but kills fame,
power, honor, pride, hope, peace.
Tom Scott, who had been liv-
ing in the west part of town onlv
a short time, was found dead in
his bed last Thursday morning.
He recently came here from Oak-
land. The remains were laid to
rest in the Oakland cemetery Fri-
day morning. He had been sick
several days, but was not thought
to be seriously ill. He was only
27 years of age. His health had
not been good for some time, but
only the day before he was out
at work and seemed to be feeling
better than usual. When he
went to bed that night he made
no special complaints. The next
morning his young wife was
dum-founded to find him dead.
He was in very destitute circum-
stances.
