Middleton on his Defence.
Woodstock, Aug. 30, –Reginald
Launcelot Middleton appeared in the
Woodstock Police Court this morning,
to answer on preliminary trial to the
charge of obtaining goods fr'oul E. J.
Cole, of the Empire hina hall, under
false pretences, the alleged false pre-
tences chiefly being that Middleton
got the goods un the representation
that the Brantford and Woodstock
railway was being built by the C.P.R.
Middleton was gaped at by a big
crowd of people on the way to the Pe -
lice Court, while every foot of space in
the cou['t•room was taken up by spec-
tators, and many were unable to gain
admittance. The prisoner wore a wan
look as a result of his illness in gaol,
but brightened up as he found occupa-
tion in posting his lawyers, H. J. Finkle
and A. S. Ball, who conducted the de-
fence at the opening of the proceedings
against Middleton a week ago.
PLEADS "NOT GUILTY."
The prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr,
Cole said that Middleton not only inti-
mated that he was the chief engineer
of the new railroad, but that when
asked who was building the road, Mid-
dleton answered "the C.P.R." This
was when Middleton was purchasing
goods in Mr. Cole's store. Middleton
had explained that the vouchers for
the goods were all sent to Montreal,
and those to whom debts were due
were expected to meet the pay ear and
receive their pay. After explaining
this the prisoner had purchased goods
to the amount of seven dollars, and
gave a -voucher as payment: The ac-
count was opened, said Mr. Cole, on
the understanding that the C. P. R.
were at the back of it.
At one o'clock this afternoon an in-
formation was sworn out against Mid-
dleton, alleging that he did unlawfully
marry Miss Sarah Smith, of Sarnia,
while he had already a wife in the per-
son of Miss Lillias Munroe, of Toronto.

MANTLES
F OR FALL
•(r111111sta801111111s(o11111t.01110sv
This week we make our first complete showing of Fall
Mantles, and now the stock is at its bee. No pains have been
m
spared in , (ch
trtu�, out and gathering topther only what is
newest and absolutely correct in Mantle styles for the corning
season. Our object lias been to have the best possible Mantle
stock, best in styles, best in assortment, best in values. We
think we have succeeded. The samples of both German and
Canadian manufacturers have been carefully gone through and
we are showing to—day what is unquestionably the finest collec-
tion of stylish Mantles that has ever been shown in this section.
It's a Ltock that will have few equals any place, There's not a
weak spot in it, styles we know are right,. colors are right,
qualities are to be depended on, while values discount those of
any former season. A feature of our Mantle stock this season
is the large number of exclusive styles we are showing in the
better lines, no two of which are alike. The Mantles are here
and all ready for sale. You are cordially welcome to come and
see them any time. We are here to show you the goods, and
you need feel under no obligation to buys' if you do not care to.
Dress Goods
�eraele�
As with Mantles, so with Dress Goods. We are by far
ahead of any former season. No such assortment of high class
Dress Stuffs has ever been on our counters before. We have
made preparations for a big Fall trade, have bought better
goods than usual, and Dress Goods buyers will find a choice
assortment of stylish novelties and a complete range of the
popular shades and materials in Plain Cloths.
Fall Millinery
Weare busy getting ready for Fall business in the Millinery
Department. Miss Scott ,has been in the workrooms of the
leading'Mi11inery houses, making copies of French pattern stats
and, getting thoroughly posted as to what are the correct styles
fo •.I.1'all. The new shales in the ever popular l;ailors and
asking hats are now in stock.

they are becoming fewer every year.
Just at the present time our Chil-
dren's Clothing is in good demand
and our specialties are selling very
fast :—
Our Boys' School Pants at SOc, 60c and 75c
Our Boys' School (bats at $1.23 and $1.50
are the cheapest goods in Canada,
and we sell thein by the hundreds.
We make themselves and no other
house can equal them. Our full se-
lection of new Clothing will be com-
plete in a few days, and we have a
magnificent assortment.

On Saturday next we inaugu-
rate our new Boot and Shoe Depart-
ment with a selection of Fine Goods
at prices that cannot be touched by
any other dealer. We will save hun-
dreds of dollars by the change which
we have just made,' and this Depart-
ment of our business will be under so
little expense that the above claim
can safely be made.
Our campaign in Boots and
Shoes will be an active one. Our
prices will be such that we are bound
to have a large turn over. Our goods
will be the best we can buy. We are
preparing for an immense opening
about the middle of September and
full particulars will be given later.
For Saturday next we give our
first surprise in a fine Girls' School
Shoe in sizes 11 to 2, extra good value,
at $1.25. For our Inauguration
Night they will go at 75e. This is
the gr eates ' snap ever offered in
town on reliable goods, and we ex-
pect they will be picked up quick.
Every week's issue will contain
some startlingprices for keen buyers.
