Per advertisement, the Southern
Expirees Company had their "old
hoss sale" in this ci ty. Saturday .
The sale took placa in Ritz'a store
room and the eager, surging mass
of people that crowded into the
small space was simply a wonder to

and; that packages would be offered

No doubt about it we'are better fixed to
for sale, but nothing would be de
livered until the auctioneer bad beer
sold the last article and stated also
that they were buying a "pig in the
poke." Bids were! then received by
Ritz, who very cjeverly cried the
sale, and to the surprise of the agent
himself and to the' parties who bad
seen "boss sales" before, the liveliest
bidding followed that has ever been
known at any sale in this city.
