The nice thing about a Rain Coet is, you can wear it in shine as well as in rain, and look well. The best fact about our rain coat is, they’re made for us by Hart, Schaffner & Marx, which is only a short way of saying there are no better Rain Coats to be had anywhere, and that you’ll think so yourself if you buy one. We have plenty of other good Overcoats and suits to show j’ou. We’ll interest you if you give us a chance. I_l<r ' '/" " ■■■■ W

Herrick for provoke The trouble originated in the Wigwam saloon over a matter of change, Roop claiming that Herrick had not returned it to him. One word brought on another until it became so over-bearing to Herrick that he appeared before Mayor Coffee and filed the above charge. The trial | was held last night and Roop appeared and plead guilty, costing him nine dollars and thirty cents, which he promptly paidUnclaimed letters are at the postoffice for Mrs. Mary- E. Johnson, Arthur Ford and James J. Swift. It actually snowed in Decatur i last evening, May 18th, and we have cancelled all our orders for sufnmer cottages. In fact we rather feel as though it never would get warm enough to suit us. An Irishman in order to celebrate the advent of a new era went out upon a lark. He didn’t get home till 3 o’clock in the morning, and was barely in the house when the nurse rushed up and uncovered a bunch of soft goods showing him triplets. The Irishman looked at the clock which said 3, then at the three of a kind in the nurse’s arm and said: “Oi’m not superstitious, but thank hivins that Oi didn’t coom home at 12.’
