ATost of tlie men we know have a way of arguing
with tliemsc-lves about the style of suit tliey ar
going to wear for Fall and Winter.
Some of them, (we're told) are strongly in favor
of a fairly loose back style, while a great many, es
pecially the Young Men, prefer the semi-form fitting
model which we picture here.
It is called the Seabright and is one of a younger
generation of clothes which simply is irresistable.
Every thing about the Seabright is of such a decisive
nature and it illustrates so nicely what remarkable
productions "Benjamin Clothes" are, that our en
thusiasm over them quite runs away with us.
The Seabright is a Three-Button Sack Suit which
has been in great demand in New York for sometime,
and we predict a flattering reception for it in our city
after today. While "Benjamin Clothes" are built by
the very best clothes talent tfhich New York can
supply, and while the styles are precisely like the
most exclusive Fifth Avenue Tailors are putting out,
they are moderately priced.
Any Young Man who will come to us and "try
on" a few patterns in this Seabright model will be
the most enthusiastic fellow outside of New York
City. They're all "worked up" over it there.

BERLIN, Sept. 29. Newspapers,
particularly those of the Meabtt sec
tion, which has been racked by
strikers' riots during the last three
nights, today called upon the autho
rities to use the "iron and blood"
treatment to prevent further out
breaks. Rioting last night was the
worst that has taken place since the
beginning of the trouble, and it Is
estimated that 700 were Injured by
the sabers of "the mounted police
who charged the mob. Many of
the Injured were taken to the hos
pitals and are in a precarious condi
tion. Among those who are nursing
minor wounds are four American
newspaper men who were watching
the fight. Property damaged by the
rioters Is estimated at $250,000. It
Is believed that other riots will fol
low as thousands are Idle and have
joined the mob.
Vote Federal Control.
PUEBLO. Col., Sept. 29. Federal
control of the water power sites in
the Western forest was unanimously
endorsed today by the committee: on
resolutions at the irrigation congress.
A minority report will favor state
control, and Its reading will prob
ably precipitate on the floor of the
eongress, but It Is more than likely
that the proposition of federal con
trol will bp endorsed by the maloritv
of the delegates. Gifford Plnrhot Is

mentioned as prospective candidates,
and In some of the wards it looks
as though the jobs would go beg
ging. In the first ward Frank Clements
retires, and In the Vvent he de
clines to become a candidate for re
election the position will probably
fall to John T. Long, who is fre
quently mentioned by the voters of
that district.
In the second ward, Charles Pat
rick retires, and from gossip, he has
emphatically declined to accept an
other term. Who will accept the
place Is not known at this time.
In the third ward Councilman
Bounds retires, and It is said that Dr.
George K. Houck has consented to
run. According to politicians he will
have no opposition, being acceptable
to both the "dry" and "wet" ele
ment. In the fourth ward Councilman
Strong retires, and it is generally
wbispered that he has utterly refus
ed to accept another term. Other
prominent persons mentioned for the
office are C. L. Hadley and Walter
Hamilton.
In the fifth ward Alva Bellows re
tires. He will probably be given a
second term without opposition
should he accept the honor at the
hands of his friends.
In the sixth ward Councilman Mul
len retires, and It Is said that he
will run for re-election. According
to statements of certain politicians
Mullen will have opposition. The
Identity of the prospective candidate,
however. Is held from the public at
present.
