We Have Decided Upon Something
That we feel sure will interest every man, woman
and-child in Waco, as the decision means to them a
saving of money on all their purchases of Dry
Goods, Clothing, Boots and Shoes, Millinery, Car-pets,
Mattings, etc., etc., for the next two months,
as we will inaugurate a special summer sale for
and
to sell out as much as possible of onr spring and
snmmer stocks now on hand. We will offer special
bargains in every one of our forty-one different de-partments
that will make many and quick sales.
It will be a
NEVER AGAIN
Will we do business under an assumed name, no
matter what the temptations are to do so. On open-ing
in your fair city we assumed the name of
THE BANKRUPT DRY GOODS CO.
And fortunately gave our reasons for it the same
publicity that we gave the name. We did so, not
then knowing that you already had one claiming the
title of the
THE BANKRUPT STORE
To the owners of which we extend our apologies
for our assumption of the name to which they hold
an unquestioned right, but while
CLEARING ” SALE*
that will compel attention from all classes of trade,
as the special low prices will not be confined to any
one class of goods, but will be throughout all our
stocks. Our system of ventilating fans is now in
perfect running order and our establishment de-lightfully
cool to shop in.
See special bargains in Millinery, Parasols and
Embroidery Departments this week.

and privilege to sell good, honest goods at

And will continue to Butcher Prices as they never
were butchered in this city before. Encouraged by
the very liberal patronage extended us since com:
.ing amongst you, we have determined to very large-ly
increase our present stock. To make room for
which we are compelled to reconstruct the store,
adding extensive ranges of shelving, etg. We will
undertake this work about June i, and must, be-tween
now and then, get rid of the

An Assignment—Sunday Rows.
Special to the News.
San Antonio, June 30.—L. W.
Carrico, a well known contractor of
this city, made an assignment to-dav
for the benefit of his creditors. His
liabilities are $4500 and assets $4300.

organ of the city by the council by
a unanimous vote.
Judge Burke will adjourn court
after this week until September.
John Anthony, a white man and
a well known carpenter, was stabbed
and brickbatted last night by two
negroes named Smith and Bailey.
His wounds are serious. The thugs
are in jail.
The result in Harris county, Hon.
Gustave Cook’s home, was a great sur-prise
to the followers of that gentle-man
in this city. The Hogg men are
considerably elated and the chances
are that this city and county will go
overwhelmingly for Hogg and the com-mission.
There is a movement on foot here
to nominate John Cochran, postmaster
under Cleveland, as a candidate for
representative. He served several
terms, once as speaker of the house
and made a very valuable representa-tive.
Picnic at Gholson.
The citizens of Gholson will have a
picnic to-morrow and all the candi-dates
will be on hand to meet the dear
people. Most of the candidates look
somewhat jaded from the hot weather
and exciting canvass. They all real-ize
thd fact that somebody is going to
get left, and every one of them is
working like a Trojan to be the other
fellow.
Oak Grove Church.
The Oak Grove (Methodist) church
at Rosen'hal was dedicated yesterday
and the News is informed that about
1 ;500 people were in attendance.
Rev. E. A. Smith preached the dedi-cation
sermon. Those people down
there say they have finest church
building in the county, outside of
Waco.
The Axtel Picnic.
The picnic at Axtel announced in
the News a few days ago to take
place Saturday, the 5th proximo, com.es
off on Thursday next, July 3.
POLITICAL BREVITIES.
Only twelve counties instructed for
Hogg Saturday. One of them was
Harris, Cook’s present ho>re, and
another was Hays, Cook’s old home.
Verily the Express’ heavenly agent
to preach the gospel oi anti-railway
regulation and anti-free school, anti-homestead,
apostle of freedom for the
cormorants to oppress the people and
damnation for the people who resist
them, is short on inspiration. Senator
Matlock hurls the Abner Taylor
interview at Mr. Hogg and
says the property he offered to
sell for $40,000 was rendered for tax-es
at a valuation of $5,164. When it
is remembered that the property did
not belong to Mr. Hogg, but to his
father-in-law, and that Mr. Hogg bad
nothing whatever to do with the ren-dering
of it for taxes, the “do or die”
spirit that seems to actuate Mr. Hogg’s
enemies is made plain.
In Bell county the democrats have
split on the candidates for representa-tire
and Mr: H. P. Robertson, who was
nominated by the democratic eonven-tion,
will have an opponent in the per.
son of Judge R. Y. King, who was de-feated
by Mr. Robertson in the con-vention.
Judge King, it is said, will
run independently.
