It seemed almost a crime to part with our own carefully-chosen rugs and carpets at such drastic reductions, beeing no immediate relief, nor the opportunity of replenishing our Oriental rug stock until European hos tilities are over, we decided "best none at all," rather than an incomplete assortment. 1 oday im porters are asking from a quarter to a half more for any sort of Oriental carpet. At the great concession in price, householders who will be wise enough to invest in these rugs will hold prizes that they will refer to in years to come as purchased during the great European war. In order to relieve the congestion of the past two days, we shall have extra salespeople and spread the rugs over our entire rug and drapery section, so that inspection will be easy.

RUSSIAN BAYONETS WIN Hall of Shells and Bnllets Kept Pouring Into Czar's Troops Four Days and Fighting Prevented Sleep, hut Men Battle On. PETKOGRAD. Sept. 9 (via London. Eept. 10.) The Kech today prints the following; details of the fall of Lem berg: "The fighting which resulted in the capture of Leniberir began August 29. when the Russians drove the enemy from Zloczuw t45 miles east of Lem berg") and moved on to Golaya Gorka a name which means 'the naked hill.' "We spent the night on Naked Hill' and the actual storming of the town was begun at 2:30 o'clock in the morn ing. Then followed a four days' bat tle. A virtually continuous cannon ade lasted from dawn to darkness without cessation. Kven In the dark ness the weary lighters got little sleep. Whenever a single shot was heard the men dashed for their places and the battle boiled again with renewed fury. Extinct Craters Used am Forts. "The enemy's counter attacks were delivered with great energy and a dense hail of lead and iron was poured over our ranks. The Russian advance was greatly Impeded by the hilly na ture of the ground and the great num ber of extinct craters, which formed splendid natural fortifications for the enemy, who held them doggedly. Out of these, however, the enemy was driven in succession. "We suffered much from thirst, for the stony country was devoid of springs. The days were oppressively hot and the nights bitterly cold. "Both sides fought with great ob stinacy, but the nearer we approached Lemberg the harder the struggle be came. However, it soon was evident that we were superior in artillery. "At length the enemy was driven from ail trenches beneath the protec tion of the Lemberg forts. Our troops r, ere weary, but la high spirits. For, two days the fight raged around the forts but we were always confident of the prowess of our artillery. The big guns of both sides rained a terrific hail down on the armies, which suffered terrible losses. W orks Carried at Double Quick. "At last we noticed that the re sistance of the ' forts was growing weaker. A charge at double-quick was ordered and we carried the first line of works. It was evident from that point that many of the enemy's gun6 had been destroyed. Not enough of them had been left to continue an effective defense, but the enemy was undis couraged and tried to make up with rifle fire what he lacked in artillery. "Between the first and second lines our losses were heavier than before. but under bayonet charges the enemy broke and fled in panic. "Our troops entered the town at the enemy's heels. We ran into the town, despite our fatigue, with thunderous cheering. "An episode which had much to do with ending the enemyls dogged re sistance occurred during the fighting between the first and second lines. The Austrians, in the hope of checking the Russian effort to encircle the town, had thrown out a heavy screen of Slav troops with a backing of Magyars, who had been ordered to shoot down the Slavs from behind if they showed any hesitation. . "This circumstance became known to the Russian commander, who ordered a terrific artillery fire over the heads of the Slavs and into the ranks of the Magyars. This well-directed fire set the whole line in panic." TAX REMEDIES SUGGESTED Treatment of Corporation Like In dividuals Is Suggested. DENVER, Sept. 9. A general resume of the tax and legislative developments of the United States was contained In an address by M. M.
