(Q)W
WHEN YOU WOULD NATURALLY EXPECT

and Suit Expert, will be here to superintend the Opening Sale ol our immense stock, of
positively the latest creations in LADIES' CAPES, COATS, JACKETS, SUITS, and

THIS
MEANS

tunity for you

see no later creations if you visited the
largest stores in New York City. Mr.
Volfsohn will show everything from

THIS ME AITS
not only a display of everything nice
in the ordinary run of goods usually
displayed in a well selected stock of
ready-to-wear Jackets, Coats and Suits,
but a line of the very best made-to-order
qualities ever desired by the fas
tidious, well dressed shopper of the
big cities.
THIS MEANS
that you can make a selection from a
stock so large and so complete that in
the four days of this sale it will be ab
solutely impossible for the line of sizes
to become so broken that you cannot
be fitted. This is an opportunity that
should not be neglected take advan
tage of it you'll regret it if you let it
pass unimproved.
THEY OWN FIVE STORES.
Headquarters in This City Slain
Store Is Known as The
Model Supply Store.
The New Model Supply Store of this
city a few days ago negotiated a trade
deal of considerable magnitude. In con
nection with the four other stores owned
by the same management and which are
located at Leavenworth, Valley Falls,
Columbia, Mo., and Centralia, Kan., a
purchase of cloaks aggregating J17.300
was made. Mr. D. P. Paxton, partner,
and resident manager of the interests in
this city, personally superintended the
details of the transaction. He rented a
store in St. Louis and invited leading
manufacturers of New Tork, Cleveland,
Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis to dis
play their lines. In this way choice of
the best was had, and splendid purchases
involving big price concession were
made.
The following clipping recently pub
lished in a St. Louis newspaper refers to
the occurrence:
"A buying syndicate composed of five
stores owned by Kemper & Paxtons
with headquarters at Topeka, Kan., yes
terday bought a lot of cloaks from east
ern manufacturers whom they had in
vited to bring their goods to this city
for inspection. The purchase price was
$17,500."
The New Model Supply Store is an in
stitution which is a credit to the city.
The store was opened in April, 1896, and
has increased its output until the firm
is compelled now to carry a stock ex
ceeding $125,000.

THIS MEANS
that if you happen to
be hard to fit, and the
lines of the ordinary
models do not meet
your requirements, Mr. Wolfsohn will
take your measure after the most scien
tific methods, insuring you a perfect fit
and the most absolute satisfaction, and
have a garment made to order for you
in the best sense of the term, at no ex
tra expense in any way.
THIS MEANS
a saving to you of from S3.00 to $10.00
per garment, according to the quality
and style you desire to purchase, as
there is always this difference between
ready - to - wear and jnade - to - order.
Here you get strictly made-to-order
style and quality, at an extremely low
ready-to-wear price.

Lowest Estimate on Loss cflafe at
Galveston.
New Tork, Oct. 16. Governor Joseph
D. Sayers, of Texas, who is here attend
ing the bazaar for the benefit of the
Galveston sufferers, said last night:
"The horror of Galveston has been in
no way over-estimated. The most con
servative now put the loss of life at six
thousand and the estimates run all the
way from this minimum to a maximum
of 12,000. The truth will never be known,
for beyond question hundreds were
swept away and their bodies sunk at
sea.
"The property loss is in the millions
in the tens of millions, indeed. A great
part of the city was destroyed and it
was all damaged. The business section
suffered the least, but here also large
sums must be expended to restore the
buildings and streets to their normal
condition. Thanks to the generosity of
the people of ail sections of the Union,
the people of Galveston are no longer in
want. They have recovered from the
first shock of the disaster and are all at
work to restore the city to its original
condition. Their bravery and pluck in
the face of calamity merit the highest
praise. It is really wonderful, of the
courage they are showing. I shall be
here but a few days and shall return to
Texas as soon as my duties in connec
tion with the bazaar are ended."
In response to an inquiry as to wheth
er, "in his opinion, the new Galveston
could be made safe from the danger of
a future storm. Governor Sayers said:
"I think that much can be done look
ing to the safety of the new city, but I
do not believe that there will be a repeti
tion of the frightful hurricane that visi
ted us. If a storm of such awful propor
tions should strike this city it would ut
terly wreck it. You do not appreciate
here the tremendous strength of the ele
ments as it was shown at Galveston.
No safegaurd of human construction
could have withstood it. But such a
storm is not likely to come again; we
have little fear of that."
A Xrong- Suit Ended.
San Francisco, Oct. 16. A decision
just rendered by the United States su
preme court sustaining the trust created
by Mrs. Catherine M. Garcelon of Oak
land, ends one of the longest litigations
ever known in this state. Some time
before her death in 1S91, Mrs. Garcelon
transferred property of the value, at
that time, of over one million dollars, to
John A. Stanley in trust for Bowdoin
college and the establishment of a hos
pital in Oakland, in the proportion of
two-fifths of the fund to the college and
three-fifths to the hospital. It is esti
mated that Bowdoin college will receive
considerably over half a million dollars.
