An Evening 1 Pleasantly Spent.
Tuesday evening last about 7:30 o’clock
quite a number of the local Masonic fra¬
ternity assembled at the splendid home
Mr. W. H. Ashworth on Railroad Ave¬
nue, to spend the evening in a social and
fraternal manner. One feature of the
evening was the conferring of an impres¬
sive side degree on six applicants which
was quite pleasant and enjoyable.
About 9 o’clock the assembled guests
upon invitation repaired to the dining
hall where well prepared oysters, barbe¬
cued pig, roast and turkey, breads, salads,
pickles, spread cakes the fruits long in profusion
were upon table.
The absence of the wives and sweet¬
hearts of the mystic brotherhood gave
them, when seated around the table, a
fair field and a free fight, and most of
them made a good record in the battle.
The entertainment the big hearted throughout was an
evidence of hospitality
of the host and hostess. At a seasona
bie hour the brethren departed in a joy¬
ful mood hoping that similar occasions
may be multiplied in the future.

Cyclone! Cyclone!! Cyclone!!!
Fifteen thousand dollars worth of
groceries, provisions and general mer¬
chandise at Cyclone Prices. Many of
our goods are intrinsically worth cost,
yet we know we will have to take less.
We will never want money worse than
we do now. Everybody we owe want
their money, and they want it bad, very
bad, and the shortest way out of tho
trouble is to sell our good at whatever
price The we cyclone can get.
that recently came to our
town was our cyclone. None of our
competitors got the benefit of it as we did,
therefore Cyclone they are not prepared to meet
Prices. All that need goods had
better come before we have another cy¬
clone—all might blow away next time.
We don’t know when another one is com¬
ing. All we know about cyclones is that
we had one. If another cyclone never
comes you will never have .another oppor¬
tunity to buy goods at Cyclone Prices.

Justice Martin also says that
if Proctor & Huddleston bring suit for
damages in liis Cabaniss court against
any of their competitors for claiming their
their cyclone trademark, or for trying to meet
cyclone prices, and if the evidence
is sufficient to convict that he will show
them the power of a Chief Justice who
presides will over a district court and that he
punish them to the fullest extent of
the law and that there will be no appeal
from his Cabaniss District court. IBs
