Honest Clearance Sale and Price Reduc

tions on Men's and Young Men's Suits

NE thing we like about a Clearance Sale like ours, if we don't make a lot of profit, selling clothes at less than they're worth we certainly do make a lot of friends.

Every time we get a man into one of our HART, SCHAFFNER & MARX Suits, we know we've made him a solid friend of our store, and of our merchandise. And we know that friends are worth a good deal more to a business than a few dollars of immediate profit. We want to clean up this entire stock of spring and summer goods? we'd a good deal rather give you the benefit of our extremely low prices now than to carry these goods through until next summer. You know this store and what it stands for; HIGH QUALITY, STRAIGHT FORWARD, CLEAN CUT, LIBERAL METHODS, SATISFACTION GUARANTEED. Now we stand for this at all times, whether sold at the original price, or at a sale price. This is the one great time of the year to take advantage of our clothing reductions. Here are the actual cash savings as taken from the original selling tickets.

REMARKABLE CITIZEN WROTE

01 OBITUARY

JASPER MANN, FORMERLY OF INWOOD WHO DIED IN WASHINGTON HAD PERILOUS LIFE.

Suffered Two Accidents, Which Were Pronounced Fatal, Yet Survived Story of Life Interesting.

'I he well known citizen, Jasper Mann, who died at the National Hospital for the insane at Washington 1). C, on last Saturday, was a character in many respects remarkable, and uitc out of the ordinary. The Tribune herewith publishes an account of his life, written by himself to this paper, several months ago. The communication was almost illegible audi was rewritten in this o7hce. However the narrative is exactly as he wrote it, and almost in the same, words. The history of Jasper Mann, who resided at In wood in this comity for many years, is a very interesting story. Hc was 'a veteran of the civil war and

hence was taken to the National Hospital when his health and mind !began to iaii some time ago. He left In wood for Dayton ().. where he was in the Sob diers' home before being taken to the hospital. A son, John Mann, survives him near In wood. The story of his life is as follows : Kditor Plymouth Tribune: I have intended for the past five years to write a short history of my life in Marshall county, for publication in your paper, at any time that you wish to use it, and having nothing else to do 1 am writing it today. I came to Marshall county almost forty years, ago. I arrived in IMymouth, at about two oclovk in the afternoon, August 1.1, ls;o, and from that day to this Marshall county has been my home. Soon after coming here 1 built a log house north of the county farm, right at the corner of Jake I, ccs orchard. I lived there three years, and then Tom Lee, Isaac Lee and I). L. Dickinson formed a partnership in the lumber business. Tom Lee was with the saw mill up on Yellow River. Isaac Lee was at the mill where the county farm is now, and I assisted them occasionally. About thirty-one years ago, last October. Chris Nifong and 1 commenced cutting saw logs in the Smiley woods, north of the Nifong place. Just before noon we cut a large poplar tree; in falling one of the limbs caught the top of a small white oak tree and bent it over several feet, until the poplar limb broke, then tin? oak -sprang back straight and threw the large poplar exactly where I was standing. I saw

that it was going to hit my head and tried to dodge it, but as I bent over it struck my body, broke four ribs loose from my hack bone and a part'of the limb penetrated mv left lung. Chris Nifong went to Plymouth for a doctor and got back with Dr. Bower about sun-down, not being able to get one any sooner. I think lohn Nifong, Alex Ross. Ben Cramer and Geo. Jones picked me up, put me in a spring wagon and took me home. When Dr. Bowers came he put sonic ointment on the cuts and bruises, and a large bandage around mv bodv over the broken limbs. When he started to leave I asked him what be thought my chances were, but he refused to tell me. On the third day after I was hurt, I would have died, had it not been for the presence of mind and quick work of Mrs. Alfred Suttlcv, one of our nearest neighbors. She was sitting by mv bed. when there was a rush of Wood from my lungs and stomach, and I gasped for brcatii. She sprang from her chair, told me to open my mouth wide and ti,r.,t."tirr i,pr rifrlit hand into m V

mouth, "took out handful after !

handfuil of blood until 1 was relieved, and when my wile, whom she had called, got into the room, she found almost a quart of blood When the blood stopped coming up, I thanked 'Mrs. Sutley and told her she had saved my life. Twentv vcars ago last fall I was operating a saw mill, four miles south of Bremen. I had Ixnight all the white ash trees on the' land of Clinton Rose and Wm. Kershaw and was sawing them into table legs, thirty-two inches long, when my right hand was caught in the saw and my

' thumb and one linger were cut off. Nine years ago on the 28th of June, at six o'clock in the morning, I was helping to load saw logs on a flat car at In wood with a "Jim" pole, when the chain, that held the "Jim" pole fast to the railroad broke and the pole fell across the flat car where I was standing. The top of the pole struck me on the forehead and left eye and fractured my skull. I was taken home more dead than alive, and it was thirty-six days before I regained consciousness, and I have had but one good night's rest since tluat time. It really seems marvelous to me that 1 am alive. If any other man has lived as long as I have after two accidents, both of which were pronounced fatal by physicians, 1 have not heard of that man. iMy head does not always feel just right and I know that I shall die some time when there seems little cause for death. Yours truly, Jasper Mann
