"Several of our well-to do home owners in Garrett make a practice of going to the large cities, Ft. Wayne or Chicago, every month soon after pay day and buy their supplies in bulk, paying spot cash and getting lowest prices. It is reasonable to believe that they get many goods at less price in that way than to buy little at a time to be paid for after pay day." Herald.

Mrs. James A. Whirledge died at her home in Garrett on Monday evening, July 9, aged thirty-one years. Funeral services were held at the Catholic church Wednesday at a. m.

and interment at Defiance, Ohio. Deceased leaves a husband, three children and many friends to mourn her demise and the entire community extends sympathy to them. The Morris damage case against Nick Ritter will be called the 23rd of this month, unless a compromise is effected. It is a pretty difficult matter to say where a man gets all of his liquor while intoxicated and we snderstand that a strong effort has been made to fix the price. Morris got a load of tangle-foot somewhere and while going home he feil between the thills and front wheel of his buggy.

In this condition he was found dead near the Charley Rugman farm. County attorney Link says it is only necessary to publish a liquor license one time. The law reads that it must appear twenty-one days before the time set for the commission-, ers to grant the license. Other lawyers take the stand that this means three publications in a weekly newspaper. The Clipper has been carrying them three weeks, but those who agree with Attorney Link and only want one insertion can take their own chance by notifying ns when the notice is sent to the office.

Largest line of wall paper in the city at Stoner's drug store. There was a rnmor in circulation that Sheriff Hathaway had located the horses and eurrev stolen from Fremont Smith, but the etory is without foundation. The men who took that team no doubt belong to an organized gang of theives and it is an extremely difficult matter to catch them. In cases of this kind the horses' hair is dyed, their tails docked and otherwise disfigured. Ontside of this they change hands every day or two and it would not be any great surprise for Mr.

Smith to buy the eame team next fall and not know that he ever owned them. Our "people were greatly shocked Saturday morning by the sad intelli gence that Harrison H. Smith, one of Garrett best known citizens, had been found dead in his bed. He was about town the evening previous and appeared in his usual good health and spirits, but for some time past has boen subject to heart-trouble which is assigned as the cause of bis death. Mr.

Humphrey is acting very mysterious these days. Always of a jovial disposition beseems to be outdoing all former efforts to please bis customers. It might be attributed to the fact, though, that a bran new boy arrived at his home Wednesday and he's come to stay. The Clipper is always pleased to see its friends prosper and nence we congratulate Albert Weaver on his increasing trade with the Receipt, John Halifax and Evening Puff cigars. Albert is one 01 tne uest young men we ever met and he deserves, his full share of patronage.

We get a new subscriber now and then, but there are so many people borrowing, begging and sponging the Clipper that oar business in tnis line is not "on the rush." Itis hardly likely that the gang will ever get ashamed of themselves, but it tney we will have our day by and by. InthecaBeof Emma Ray against the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad com- pany, Judge uater, oi tne unireti States com yesterday rendered a judgment in favor of Mrs. Ray for $7,500. The case was tried une and taken under advisement by the udge. H.

W. Mounts and F. S. Roby are Mrs. Ray's attorneys.

Phil Berg was granted aliqnor license by the county commissioners. In case of Andrew Coy the applica tion was refused, the board holding, pon the advice of County Attorney Link, that publication in a daily was not sufficient. Courier. Uf Course it depends upon the daily paper in which the license appears, lneiaw says that a paper muse nave a general circulation. This certainly means that it shall go into each locality over the county.

If a daily paper had such a circulation a license notice would be legal. It is said that the Greenler hoop factory, at the county eeat, has been sold and the machinery will be moved to another locality. For the past several months the price of hoops and staves have been getting less and no doubt timber is scarce. When Gandy Nickey let the band sawmill go they said there was not enough money in it and their experience ought to be worth something. Accordingly all factories teat depend upon logs lor lumoer, cannot hold out much longer.

They are using mostly second grade material pow and it win noi De long unm pulp, straw and paper will take the place of the forrest tree. A man from Swan called at the Clipper office recently and contract, ed for local advertising. We charged him five cents a line and be finally paid the price. He talked quite a while lor rates that ne got ac Auburn, which was less than one-cent a line. The Herald at this place "cut him in two," but he wanted space in the Clipperand left hie order.

We get fair pay for our labor because the Clipper has the repqtation of being read. Tne other papers tase any price they can get, mortgage their plants and sandwicn otner uusiness with the printing trade in order to exist. They don't do us any financial injury and why they beat themselves a mystery to an intelligent mind. Garrett and Auburn hotels and restaurants are after the Sunday dinner patronage and an effort for one to outdo the other is made. this will be quite a "strike" on private 1 oarding houses unless they keep up the pace.

If there is one thing above another that a Pai or woman relishes it is a good eunday dinner. Again many people consider it "style." while others like to be in swell company, get acquainted with the women and young ladies and Bhow off their red necktie with color ed cuffs. Nowadays the home hash houses are rnn by every class of people from the rakeoff of a community to those who have better surroundings. Sunday dinners would not net tlrem anything extra in the way of money and tne uptown resorts get the patronage. Everything goes along the hour of time at this date on the calendar.

We have a letter of this kind from Auburn that we would not begrudge nve aouaro to know tne author thereof.

He signs a name, says be is a reader of the Clipper and asks ue not to give him away we won't. No donbt he is a reader of the Clipper, oeionging to oar immense list who dead beat the paper. His name is not on our book aud we'll wager ten dollars to one that he is a subscriber of a borne paper and sponges ours, Auburn is chuck full of such beats. It isn't safe for a subscriber to lav his Clipper away while he gats shav ed, dnnks a beer or sups a glass of soa a -water, some newspaper theif in tnat town is liable to steal it. In some localities a dozen families read the Clipper at the expense of one man.

lhe communicator in Question is alter a local officer. He charges him with the awful crime of going out at night with a girl and says the poor tmng is nearly frantic from tbe en vironments of the occasion. He tells about the nightwatchman calling the official down and informed him that the woman would ruin him. The watchman consulted tbe prosecuting attorney ana afterward talked with the officer's brother. The brother took an interest in the case and in formed the fellow that be must let up, and the officer agreed to do so if the members of bis church thought it was best.

The writer says that the ladv is ins superior in intelligence and 6ocial standing and is terribly humiliated over tbe public exposal of tbe affair, mi a iuere is no aouoii out tnat tne man has confined bis letter to tbe facts and truth, but on the other hand he has proven himself to be an unprincipled man by trying to get us into the game in using a fictitious name. He must take ue for one of the "smart set" who can be heard at every game of baseball gettinjc oft so many "tunny things. It does not make any difference to the Clipper how many men go out with women or how ashamed the fair one is for "making the trip." If we published all such happenings as this that we hear of there wouldn't be 8 pace enough left in the paper to give a church social a three line notice. People who are in the mash ing business must be given a little time and tbey will let everybody know how soft they are without an advance pointer through a newspaper. HAD THEIR NERVE.

Brought It to tbe Clipper Office aad Took it Awaj With Taeai. If there is one man above another. outside ot a book agent, who has the gall and nerve of the country wrapped in bis chin it is. tbe average in surance agent. Last week two men engaged in the business called at the Clipper office.

They were rather dignified appearing fellows and their countenances were clouded with thei "morning and evening prayer." The elder one of the two had an idea that he was a newspaper man and with the air of a millionaire said: "Do you want some news for your paper? 1 have something here that is a matter of general importance." We sized it up and it proved to be a flattering advertisement for tbe insurance company they represented. We informed the gentlemen that tbey would have to put up five cents a line to get their "puff" in the Clipper and the pair looked as though they were going to faint. Finally they decided to condense the article and after calling the second time to see if we only gave it on publication for the price named they" flew their kite and are still flying. Fake insurance companies are doing more damage to the country today than all of the gambling gumes combinded. Agents are scattered over the state at present working the insurance dodge under the guise of secret ordure and otherwise.

They rope in the workingclasses and those who do not read newspapers. Thy newr approach the business or professional man they are on to their game. Those who eventually get done up for what money they pay out are tbe people who cannot afford to lose it. Just why there are so many suckers in every railfence corner is not plain. If people want their lives insured nowdays we have reliable and substantial companies with men of onr acquaintance acting as agents.

But the majority of people want to get swindled. By dealing with men whom tbey have known for years there is no chance to take, but in lying down" to strangers there is nothing but a chance to take. They pay out their money to a traveling agent and never see him after he getb the job completed and the guy 8 roped in. People who are so easily choked and gagged are deserving of little sympathy. There is no reason, excuse or common sense in their foolish grab for something that is out of sight when they can deal in the same line in something that tbey can see, that they read, that they can understand and that they can depend upon.

OUT INTO THE WORLD. A Boy Leaves Home to Try the Hard' ships of Life "Starr M. Miner leH tor Chicago, where be goes to make bis fortune, While we regret to have him go and especially at so young an age, yet we know that be will have opportunities for learning there that he would never bare here. We predict that he will re turn in a few weeks better satisned with life in a small city." Herald. If the old man had given the boy charge of his back pension money tbe lad would not be obliged to leave home and struggle for an existence among strangers.

Starr was indue trious anj hardly fcqew what tnoney was. There must be something wrong in the Miner household, U'S wife left' and his children are gone. The trouble is all in Mr. Miner's head. On the other hand these things appear remarkably strange to take place in an office of the "leading paper in the county," It seems as though an institution rally equipped for business and worth $3,000 ought to keep the wolf from the door and the family at home.

But the trouble is all in Mr. Miner's head. The Herald has cut on job prices, on advertising and on subscription. Its editor grabs for anything from a dime to a dollar, but does not know how to invest it or keep it. He is old enough to catch an, vet the day will never come when he does.

The "swell" county seat is very likely to take a back set and before fall there will be plenty of empty houses and lower rents. The general appearance of things now is that the factories will work a limited number of men until after election and about one laboring man out of ten saves anything tor a "rainy day." The band sawmill works up its timber after receiving an order for a certain grade of lumber and if the expected change takes place in the Wabash railroad Auburn will go into a Rip Van Winkle snooze, It's too, bad, we pity her.
