Attractive Prices on Summer Wash Goods The big advance in the price of all cotton goods is well known to everybody who has kept in touch with the markets.

Why Officer Raley Falls to Recognize Various Claimants. Mr. Heber Kent Seriously Injured This Morning. Brushes There’s not even the suggestion of exaggeration in the statement that this new shipment contains more splendid brushes than we’ve ever seen offered in a city several [times the size of Albany—many real beauties priced from This is the Btory of a bicycle. Last Monday night when the negro Will Jones was so seriously cut by two others In East Albany, Officer Raley found a bicycle In front of the 0. K. Whiskey House, after having arrested the two negroes. It was 2 o’clock In the morning when he found It, and no one waB around, and he naturally concluded that It was lost. So he took It In tow and deposited It at Adams & Brosnan’s Ice-cream gar den. In a few days a negro accosted him and asked for his wheel. Now, of course, the officer couldn’t let him have it on Just his bare word, so he began to Interrogate. In reply to the question where he had gotten the wheel, the negro didn’t have much to say, but finally said that his broth er had bought It and given It to him. Ho didn’t know the make or anything else about the wheel. The next day another negro came and wanted the wheel. It seems that his cousin had presented him with it, but Officer Raley was getting suspic ious of the kinfolks, and another negro went oft walking. On the same day still another negro laid claim to the ownership of the wheel. When the officer asked which or his relatives had glv.en It to him he promptly replied that his uncle was the donor. This was too much, and he, too. was dismissed. The officer Is of the opinion that It Is a stolen bicycle. He says that the negro’s relative dodge was too flimsy. This morning at about 5:30 o’clock In the yards at the Union depot Mr. Heber Kent, yard foreman for the Central railroad here, was the victim of a serious accident. While on a moving train in some way Mr. Kent lOBt his balance, and to save himself from falling he Jumped off the train. In doing this he, of course, nearly, fell, and before he could recovor himself, ran Into a switch stand that was near. His right leg was split nearly open from the ankle to the knee. He was quickly moved to his home at the corner of Jackson and Residence streets and Dr. Hllsman dressed the wound. While It Is very painful It Is not as bad as it might have been, and Mr. Kent Is rest ing nicely. His many friends hope that he will soon be able to be out again.

There are many beautiful vegetable gardens in the region round about Al bany now, and good vegetables are plentiful for this early In the season. Our friend, Mr. W. T. Galssert, of East Dougherty, who remembers the editor with something good every now and then, brought to us this morning the finest onions we have seen, so far, this spiing. They were of the large, flat sllverskln variety, and a cut out of the center of one of them would about cover an ordinary tea saucer. Watch This Space! New Albany Steam Laundry. PHONE 39.

Clever Retort. An Irishman once met an English man who had an artificial leg. Being of a sympathetic nature, Fat Inquired the cause of the loss of the limb, whereupon the Englishman said: “A short time ago I discovered that there was some Irish blood In my body and that It had settled In this leg, so I had It cut off.” " 'Tis a pity It didn't settle In your head," came the quick retort.
