j. MiDAVlTT, Wellington National Bank Wellington, DR8, SMITH MAYHKW UP-TO-DATE DENTISTRY KIH8T CLAH8 WOBIC ONLY West Harvey Avenue RICHARDSON BROS. Abouftlurreen years ago a young man came to tne city ol Wellington ana entered the employ of Mr. D. Brunswick For seven years he remalnedj'in Mr.

Brunswick's store and during this time acquired a thorough knowledge of tbe clothing business. Mr. Brunswick made a specialty of custom made suits and tbe young man soon showed himself an apt pupil. Another clotbinj house se cured his services for a year. The young man by this time knew the clothing business so well that he decided he would work no longer for others.

He and a friend went into partnership and opened up a store for themselves. Tbe business prospered. Our young friend bad always enjoyed the patronage ol the railroad boys and they flocked to the new establishment. Later on he moved to Junction City, but six weeks ago he opened up the Globe clothing store, already one of the best patron ized firms in this city. The young man referred to is Mr.

Frank T. Owens, and his pluck and energy entitle him to a fair share of the clothing business of the city and county. The Globe, as the name implies, makes a specialty of everything that goes to properly make up the male form. On its counters may be found every conceivable thing in the shape of raiment. Custom made suits are a specialty and those who have tried tbe Globe for suits made to order have found fit and quality such as to perfectly suit the purchaser.

The Globe has on hand a fine line of samples and are always glad to show them, whether purchase is made or not. This enterprising firm has secured tbe agency for an out of town steam laundry. As Mr. Owens says, they believe in the patronage of borne institutions, but as Wellington has no steam laundry for its citizens, they desire to give tbe city the best substitute possible. The Globe is now engaged in getting up a fine new special delivery and collection wagon which will make regular collections throughout the city for laundry work, and thereby save much of the bother of getting work ready and carry ing it to an agency.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT. Mr, Lackey of the West Side Butters a Severe Fall. Monday evening late Mr. Lackey, wbo lives in the west part of the city, and his sons were breaking some young horses to drive on West Eighth street. While going down a steep grade Mr.

Lackey attempted to put on tbe brake, when tbe rod broke throwing him out of the wagon. He fell to the ground, the back ol his bead striking first. He was picked up unconscious and taken to his home. Dr. F.

G.Emerson was called and examination showed a deep gash in the back part ol the skull about three inches long. The wound was dressed and the old gentleman is now resting easily. Wants His Farm Bak. Geo. Patton, living southeast of the city, has filed suit against his son, Geo.

to regain tbe title to ninety acres of land deeded to him by his father under peculiar circumstances. The old gentleman deeded the son the farm in 1800, with the understanding that he would keep the taxes paid and give him one-third ol everything raised on the place, and at the lather's death the farm should belong for sure to the son. Tbe young man has since industriously worked the farm for all there was in it, but bas stubbornly refused to pay either rent or taxes, and now tbe old gentleman wants the court to give him back bis farm.
