FOR SALE CHEAP, AT

Ross Bros., 99-Cent Store.

If Growing Sales count for anything. It Complete Stocks, Exclusive Styles and Absolute Low Prices have any weight, then this store leads the Clothing, Hats and Furnishings Trade of Central

Indiana.

The most natural thing in the world is for a merchant to think his own stock is the best and to say so. One of the easiest things is to exaggerate quantities, qualities and values. We offer proof that this Clothing business is the Largest in Orawfordsville, that olothing Styles here are more exclusive than elsewhere, that the range of prices are more reasonable for fine made goods.

It. is utterly impossible in the limits of newspaper advertising to properly introduce onr $10, 812 and $15 suits. It surprises most people that tailor-made and readymade go hand-in-hund. As a matter of fact we are getting the trade of those who formerly went to the custom tailor. Suppose you could get for 85 a pair of trousers actually worth 88—what then Our salespeople are ready. Any style hat you want—silk, Derby or felt— same quality and for $3 as the fashionable hatter asks $5 for. The difference is worth-consider-ing.

We are the acknowledged authority for the best new things in Hate and Furnishings.

He said it was a relief to come to the quiet and peace which reigns in Orawfordsville. The object of this inspection was to see whether the postmaster, Mr. Bonnell, and the local board were observing the letter and spirit of the law. Mr. Bailey interviewed several citizens and also snw some of the applicants who took the recent examination. He explained to these applicants the method of marking their papers in Washington and requested them to look their papers over after they were returned hore to satiety themselves that justice had been done them. He said it was their privileges to appeal from their marks if they believed they had not been fairly graded, and their appeals would receive prompt attention Mr. Bally states that the Civil Service Commission is determined to see that the merit system is fully carried out in all classified offices and no violation of it will be tolerated if strict supervision can prevent it.

Jefferies, the desperate criminal, was about five years old and still wore dresses. lie was not as tall as the'Squire's table and was released after a lecture, the solemnity ot which he wholly failed to appreciate.

Yesterday the seniors took their annual geological trip to Darlington. It looked a trifle damp overhead, and tho Professor was detained till the very last moment, but twenty-five men boarded the train with an inspiring Rah, Rah, Rah, Wahooh Wah, Wabash, Wabash, Rah, Rah, Rah." McMurtry had the shovel, Hutchings the pick, and Leech the compass, all profusely decorated with red. On arriving the class went to see where the great mastadon tooth* had been found. It was a lovely place, nioely boarded over so that you could peep down through the cracks and be told that about nine feet under you was an immenee tooth, 17 inches in circumference, and that it ran into the man's kitchen where he used a decayed part of it for a stove-pipe. As all this was rather taxing on the brain, the class rested for a half hour and then moved across and down the creek for two miles to examine the feet print of the great glacier, (or traces perhaps.) The pick and shovel were here plied, and everybody but Wilson worked with a commendable vigor that showed how eager was their thirst after knowledge. A "crag and tail' formation, the scratches or groves made by the glacial action, and various fossil brachiopods were found. Leech, with compass in hand, determined the direction of these grooves to be N. 28£ E Dinner, which followed, was excellent, and was surrounded with zest. Cigars and droll stories finished the noon hour, after which wo had a very interesting lecture on Moraines and the general traces and effects of the great Ice Age. The ball game, the closing event of the day, was the most interesting ever played in the history of the class. The teams were as follows

HEAT AND LIFE.

Th. Application of Thermo Dyn.mlt L«*i to rhjrelcsl Growth. We often speak of our bodies as machines or engines working upon principles similar to those employed in mechanics. The idea that the food we eat resembles in its action the fuel supplied to a furnace Is familiar, and yet one can hardly.avoid a little start of surprise upon finding the laws of heat engines soberly applied to explain the growth of plant and animal life.

This has recently been done, says the Youth's Companion, by Mr. J. Parker before the Philosophical society in London. lie points out, for instance, that the increase of available energy resulting from the building up of a plant out of inorganic materials can only be explained, in accordance with thermodynamic laws, by differences of temperature during the growth of the plant, and his calculations show that the difference .between day and night is quite sufficient to account for the differences of temperature required.

Similar principles apply to tho growth of animals. Nature gives nothing for nothing, and demands an exact equivalent for every expenditure of her energies, whether she is aiding man to drive an engine, causing an oak to grow, or building up the muscles of an athlete or the brain of a philosopher. And as far as her work upon our planet is concerned, the source of her supplies in all these cases is the sun.

A GREAT HORSE RACE.

An Exciting Contest ltntween the North and South.

A great horse race—probably the greatest match race ever run in this country—was, according to a St. Louis horseman, that known as the test event of sectional superiority, the north against the south, in 1845. The horses were Peytona, owned by Messrs. Kirkmari, of Alabama, and Fashion, owned by Messrs. Gibbons, of New Jersey. The race was run at a traolc on Jersey Heights, now a. fashionable suburb of Jersey City, overlooking the Hudson river, and near the present American summer home of Mrs. Paran Stevens, a great society queen of the present day in Paris, London and New York. Tho match was for twenty thousand dollars a side, and created intense interest in all northern and southern communities. There was an immense crowd present, distinguished men and women from all over the oountry being among the spectators. The spirit of local and sectional pride was a great deal stronger in those dayB than it is liow, and it was strung up to the highest tension. Pej'tona won the match, and the entire south appeared to be as a unit In demonstrations of joy and enthusiasm the north was correspondingly crestfallen.

A MUSICAL CRAB.

Easily

A» Indian Sand Crab Which Can Kmlt Sotrada. Among the animals Dr. Alcock, according to Nature, has specially observed is the red ocypode crab which swarms on all the sandy shores of In dia. Tho bigger of Its two chelte, or nippers, bears across the "palm" a long, finely-toothed ridge, and on one of tho basal joints of the "arm" against which the "palm" can be tightly closed, there is a second similar rldgo. When the "palm" is so folded against the base of the "arm" the first ridge can be worked across the second like a bow across a fiddle, only in this case the bow is several times larger than the fiddle.

And now as to the way these crabs play their fiddles. A robber crab enters tho burrow of another. When the rightful owner discovers the intruder he utters a f?\v broken tones of remonstrance, on hearing which the Intruder, if permitted, will at once leave the burrow. If the Intruder be prevented

Mexican Sport.

A favorite amusement with tho United States army officers on the Rio Grande is the Mexican cock fight. Every Mexican village has its cockpit, and officers on a few hours' leave cross the river to sec the fun. There are no better cockfighters in the world than the Mexicans, and, as public opinion sanctions the sport, the enjoyment of everybody Is altogether frank. The acme of the sport is reached when the apparently vanquished bird, after having been completely buried in the dust of tho arena to staunch his blood, suddenly jiscs as if from his grave, and with one blow from Ills spur slays his astonished rival in the act of crowing over his supposed victory.

The South American Plan.

In Rio Janeiro there Is a novel sys' tem of avoiding the blockading of streets. On the business thoroughfares all the trucks and vehicles arc headed in ono direction. In this wSJr tho stream of traffic Is kept constantly moving. If tho current is bound east and a man doing business on tho street desires to drive west, he takes the first crosa street cast and gets to a less crowded wiyy before turning westward.

Extraordinary Surgery.

The London correspondent of the Manchester Guardian tells the following story: "An interesting and curious case, illustrating the recuperative power of nature, has just been recorded by a surgeon. A workman while attending a machine used for cutting blocks of tin had the tips of two of tha fingers of his left hand clean cut off with the knife. Seven hours afterward the man went to the hospital for treatment. The surgeon determined to attempt to replace the missing portion of tho fingers, although the prospects of getting them to unite seemed to be most remote. The wounds were carefully cleansed and the ends of the fingers were restored to their places and fixed by sutures. In a fortnight firm union \Vas found to have occurred, and when the patient was next seen, after a considerable lapse of time, the surgeon was able to note that both motion and sensation were perfect in the ends of the fingers."
