We know that it is better to sell ooods at reductions and even at a loss, than to pack them away ami pay the costs ot insurance, lose interest on the investment and run the risk of changing fashions and markets. We further know that we can better afford to make sacrifices to turn a dull month into a month of brisk business activity than to endure stagnation. It is for these reasons then, that we have inaugurated this sweepine; Suit Sale.

After the motion had carried the aldermen were then informed that the board had already rejected the bid for contractor hopes to be able to finish the Main street relief sewer this fall if he cen secure the material and men, but would sign a bond to that effect.

Mr. Kloeckner stated that It would be Impossible to construct ttie Murdock street and any other sewer for the res son that thsr? has not been a sufficient amount of money provided for such an amount of work and it Is Impossible to get men enough to do al! the work this fall.

As S'on ns the meeting had called to order Alderman Kloeckner Introduced the following report of the Joint naane ttnt Improvement committee adopted on Thursday evening: "To the Honorable Mayor and Common Council, City of Oshkosh, Gentlemen: The growing dema-ids of the lty make it Indeapensable for better ewer facilities and the Ninetei nth street sefver and the Main street relief sewer are an immediate necessity, The Mur-dock street sewer should be built next season. The report of the board of public works relstlng to the awarding of contracts for the sewers above mentioned, has been carefully considered by your committees on finance and im-provemtnt and we herewith, under the direction of said committees, make the following recommendations: That the the Murdock street sewer and the ac Hen's Shirts In lizht patterns. quality 7 at I Hen's Shirts soiled ami odds and ends, 60o 'jn and Toe, now at here at $8 to $7Jf.

The contracts let to J.

The pressed his opinion that the Murdook the instance of residents and citizens of that section of the city lying east of Main street and under the Impression that the line was wanted.

He says that for the past three years there has been a constant demand for such an extension nnd In view of that fact, and Manager Downs have used every effort to pursuade the stock holders to grant the request. At first they would not consider It and as late as March IS of this year a letter was received from McMlilln company that the line would he expensive to build and it was doubtful If It would pay. The Oshkosh representatives persisted, however, and finally persuaded the company to consider the proposition, with the result that an engineer of the company who had Inspected the route was persuader! to report In favor of the extension. The rosiest Was then reluctantly granted by th" company and the extension permitted. Mr.

Weed says that up to this time he and Mr. Downs had supposed that the sentiment was unanimously In favor of the extension but no sooner had the matter been made public before objections were raised which culminated In the meeting Friday evening. He states that he Is sure the company would consider no proposition to alter the route which Is the only one, which would be a money maker and alterations would make the line Impracticable ami a losing Investment. In view of the fact that the aldermen, or some of them, are opposed to the line the matter will he allowed to drop. He says that the relations between the company nnd the council have been very pleasant up to this time and rather than to have any difficulty over the matter he and Mr.

Downs have decided to let It drop. If any further action Is taken It must he by the council as the company Is now out of It for good. Mr, Wt ed says that the only object of the request for the extension on West' AlgOtna street was to secure an entrance into this city for the proposed Otnro line which will In all probability he built. The company, however did not feel that It could make any further plans for the road before it had secured a proper and suitable entrance Into the city and does not propose to make all plans for building and then be obliged to enter the city over Sawyer avenue or some other Undesirable route. Alderman J.

C. Voss of the Eleventh ward Is one of the many Interested persons who are Indignant over the acton of the council. He says that he does not wonder that the company has decided to let the matter drop In view of the fact that matters entirely extraneous were permitted to he brought Into the discussion and unrensonnhle demands were made of the company by some of the aldermen before they would consent to grant the request. He says he does not see what bearing the matter of rates on the Inter-urban road has upon the question In hand and the demand for a line across Sawyer avenue Is unreasonable. Alderman Voss says that for the past two years he and Alderman Welshrod at the request of nnd for the benefit of their constituents have been after the railroad company to complete the loop In the Eleventh ward anil he Is Indignant that now when the company has consented to do so the matter should be delayed and perhaps declared off entirely Just to please the fancy of some of those who when they cannot get Just what they want are always "out with their little hammers" endeavoring to prevent others from getting Hose, fancy 10c 18c 34c 81.00 Odds nnd Ends in Men's Half and plain browns and blacks, the 15c grade at The best DBc grade, now cut to Fancy Hose that Fold at COc, now Three pairs for COUNT THE DOT IP YOU CAN COUNT Eftl, OUES- 'EM.

At the time of his death and for the twentyone years previous, be was one of the proprietors of the Foster-Hnfner Mills, formerly known as the Eagle Planing mill. The factory was erected about 1870 and formerly was operated under the firm name of Carlton Foster Co. This Is one of the most extensive sash, door, blind and lumber manufactories In Oshkosh, nnd a large amount of business la done annually.

Mr. Foster not only was prominently Identified with the business and manufacturing interests of the city, hut also figured conspicuously In public life, and was called by his fellow citizens to (111 a number of honorable and responsible positions.

For four years he served as a member of the common council of Oshkosh and In 1868 was elected mayor of the city and re-elected to that office In 1K66, serving two full terms. In H73 he was elected to the Wisconsin legislature, re-elected to that body In 1S7I without opposition, and again elected In 1883.

And so, when the hoirors of war had subsided somewhat and a few weeks of comparative quiet had made a nearer acquaintance possible between I the two, Lieutenant Buchan asked for Mr. and Mrs. Conger's sanction to the engagement and it was cordially given. I Laura Conger's friends now laughingly relate how promptly she recovered from the hardships of the siege as soon as she had met and known Lieu-: tenant Buchan, for it was a love-at-! first sight affair, and the young people did not confide their secret at first.

The secret has been kept for a year, but since the recent announcement of the engagement thedetailsof thepretty story have leaked out one by one. The time was ripe for heroes when Lieutenant Buchan Brit flashed his sword in Miss Conger's delighted sight.

Week after week the distressed foreigners had huddled within their insecure shelter. Bay by day slaughter, Are and bullets became more and more familiar spectacles. "Boxer" horrors were as common as summer showers. Paily the specter of death strode near. The food supply was practically gone, hope was dying and communication with home or with any part of the world had long been impossible.

So familiar, Indeed, had the thought of death become that it seemed far less horrible than the possibility of capture by the "boxers." To avert all chance of this one unspeakable horror the women of the colony were daily schooled in methods of suicide, that they might die rather than fall victims to the brutes from whom they could expect no mercy.
