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.
Perhaps, many of our exclusive customers are not aware of this up-jump in price, for the reason that we are still selling
wash goods at the same old pfices. Anticipating the advance, our buyers exercised a wisdom born of long experience and
bought lavishly while the old prices were on. That was way back in May of last year, that we placed orders lor goods
which have since advanced 25 per cent. We are, therefore, able to.offer now matchless values on such seasonable
goods as are enumerated below:

OF A BICYCLE. IN RAILROAD YARD.
Why Officer Raley Falls to Recognize
Various Claimants.
Mr. Heber Kent Seriously Injured This
Morning.

this new shipment contains more

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.

Prof. Charlie Cox wrote the follow
ing epltanh for Ills own tomb onl^ a
short while before Ills death, soys the
La Grange, Ga., Reporter. It Is chis
elled In the monument just erected
over his grave at La Grange by Mrs.'
Cox. and will be read and cherished In
the mind and souls of hundreds of his
friends: “I go on a distant journey to
the Land of Light where truth and.
beauty shine with full radiance, where
love swells to mystic strains of har
mony, where broken and wounded
friendships are healed: where faces of
the long ago welcome into a fellowship
lasting: where peace blooms In the
Garden of God; where activity finds
release from the weary pall of pain;
and holiness, vouchsafed by the King
of Glory, shall satisfy forevermore.”
Fine Onions.
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.

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.
