THE great rush of people to take advantage of our extraordin
ary offers in uncalled for suits and overcoats has been marvel
ous from the very beginning. The popularity of these suits
has become so great that we have been compelled to open
correspondence with over one hundred of the largest Tailoring
concerns throughout the country in order to get these suits
fat enough to supply the enormous demand. These are
not misfits, but suits made to order on which deposits have
been paid and which for unkown reasons remained uncalled
for. Such things happen to every Tailoring establishment.
It is by advertising and making a feature of selling tljcse suits
that they find it more advantageous to consign them to us
than to attempt to dispose of them from their own establishments.

We are Tailors,
Bear that in Mind.
Not cheap garment makers, the only thing cheap
about our suits is the price. Our suits have that
style fit and finish about them that . well
dressed gentlemen appreciate. Astorians are
cordially invited to call and inspect our goods
whether they buy or not.

Tho general Improsaion that a close
understanding now exists between Chi

tion In the fact that Kang Yu Wei,
leader .of the Chinese reform party, who
nt the time of the coup d'etat fled from
the wrath of the empress downger, Is
now on his return from America, was
refused an asylum hore.
Arriving on October 23 by the Em
press he was not permitted io land.
Whn the Meamer reached Kobe, how
ever. It appearing that if he was oblig
ed to stay on board he would have to
proceed to Shanghai, where complica
tions were to te feared, he was allowed
under police escort to go by rail to a
port on the Inland sea, whera he could
take passage dlreot to Hong Kong.'
Today his arrival at the latter place Is
reported. Th opposition papers make
much of the incident to the discredit
of the Japanese government.
