The first thing that met their astounded gaze was a cloud of dust generously sprinkled with broken dishes, tin ware and flying store lids and when the smoke and dust c'eared away, the hardware store of George Dillmau had •every appearance of having interviewed am Iowa cyclone with results disastrous to itself rather than the Iowa production.

We will close out our entire line of fine TAILOR MADE SUITS iu light weight, light color and medium shades worth $10, $12, $18, $14 and $15 at the ridiculous low figure of

$8.99

Never in the history of the clothing trade were such low figures quoted, a little more than half price from our usual low figures. Remember, none are reserved they all go at $8.99.

The show cases, glassware and window panes in John Canine's grocery, adjoining, were broken and the jar fractured the glass in Moody's saloon on the opposite side of the street Very fortunately Mr. Dillman had left the store but a few minutes before and it so happened that no one was close enought to sustain anything more serious than an eighteen karat shock."

An Uffly Fight

Will Kramer, the College street butcher, and "Dutch" McNeeley became entangled in an altercation over an account in the former's place of business last Saturday night, which but for the timely interference of friends might have terminated seriously. Kramer attacked McNeely with a large butcher knife and cut two ugly gashes in his face before bystanders came to the rescue. Kramer was arrested Monday morning and fined 312.40 before Mayor Bundle.

Royal Baking Powder is shown by chemical tests absolutely pure

and 27 per cent.

greater in strength than

any other. Many second-class brands of baking powder are urged upon con-

of the Royal

sumers at the price of the high-cost, first-class Royal. These powders, because of the inferior quality of their ingredients, cost much less than the Royal, besides being 27 per cent, less strength. If they are forced upon you, see that you are charged a correspondingly lower price for them.

Recently a wellknown stranger represented to Mr. Brothers that by paying 8300 he could secure to him the face of the policy, and the farmer eagerly snapped up the proposition. Together they went to South Bend to get the insurance policy cashed but found the bank closed at the noon hour, as was the usual custom. Thereupon the stranger placed the $300 which Brothers had given him in an envelope, and apparently handed the envelope to the farmer, saying they would meet agaia at 1 o'elock. Three o'clock came and no stranger, and then Brothers tore opea the envelope, only to find it filled with paper. The whole bnsinesB was a neatly-worked swindle, to Brothera's disadvantage. ..

Want A New Depot.

Mayor Bandel has been very busy this week circulating a petition "among our citizens, It is directed to the officials of the Monon railroad and prays that they may see fit to erect us a new depot. The petition, which is heavy with signatures, is as follows

GENTLEMEN—We the undersigned citizens and business men of Crawfordsville, would respectfully petition you to have erected at this place anew passenger depot. The present structure is a disgrace to the railroad and the city, and we believe as citizens and patrons of your road we should receive better treatment at your hands than is afforded in the old trap now in

as a pas

senger waiting room. Its location in she vilest portion ®f tho city makes it tbsolutely dangerous for strangers who are compelled to go there after nieht and a more suitable location should be secured. We beg of you to take immediate action in this matter and give us a new depot before winter and one that will be a credit to the city and to the road. We believe that the business given the Monon by the people of the city justifies us in making this appeal and we further believe that a new depot would add further to the business of the road in and out of the city.
