It is taken for granted that the interm ent w ill be in Friedenskirche, Potsdam , by the side o f Emperor Frederick, but the date of the funeral is not y e t known publicly.

A dozen years ago we inaugarated in Philadelphia the unheard-of idea of buying furniture away ahead of the public demand, and when manufacturers, at certain dull periods of the year at their worses, were glad to sell a t the bare cost of the making. It looked like a disastrous undertaking to those who knew the furniture business best, but who had not tested human nature, and the dynamic power of real economy when it was made tt> rightly appeal to thrift. How well the movement prospered is best evidenced by the pop ularity of imitation sales today— but sales which need no comment from us when the opportunity for comparison is open. Nowhere else is the vital power of the Wanamaker movement— the ability to buy out factories entire— to take fine goods as well as cheap; and to distribute the large quantities so quickly that scant profit and no loss is added to the extremely low prices that manufacturers are willing to accept at these occasions. Thi» year we hare many thousands of dollars’ worth o f fine Furniture from factories which would not co-operat* with uo before—goods of a character never seen previously in an under-price sale, except perhaps a few odd pieces in some dealer’s clean-up. The scope o f the August movement has broadened marvelously. Thia year lines of fur niture are better, fuller, completer—quality is higher, prices are lower than over before. Our floors are full and overflowing with the Broadest, Finest, Completest Collection of Furniture W e Have Ever Offered Under-price Of course not all the furniture on our floors is reduced. Much of our regular stock can not be removed. But the tags tell the story so plainly that there can be no confusion; a j ' the under-priced goods are in overwhelming majority. V/hether you wish to furnish a cozy little house in an inexpensive manner, or wish to furnish a mansion in the most elegant style, the furniture is here—broad in variety, and at radical concessions in price in either case. This is the great money-saving occasion of the year for Furniture buying. Following are some o f the lots included: ^ / r - r.

M anila, Aug. 6.—Miguel Malvar, who has been recognized as the successor of Aguinaldo by the Filipfno ju n ta ta H ongkong, has Issued a proclamation, dated on July 20, copies of w h ich have arrived here, giving assurances to the natives of tlie continuation of an active cam p aign and expressing hope for its successful issue and asking them to continue to hold out against the Ameri cans. The proclamation, of w h ich • 50,000 copies have been printed, purports to em a n a te from Batangas. It is a char acteristic insurgent document, charg ing the Am ericans w ith all sorts of atrocities. It recounts the losses of guns and am m u n ition and the death of four distinguished Am erican officers on July 10, all o f which, It says, the authorities concealed. The proclama tion threatens General Cailes w ith death for treachery and w a r n s all F ili pinos who surrender that they never w ill be able to live outside the Ameri can lines. M alvar claim s he has suffi cient arm s and supplies to continue the fighting indefinitely. The American officials believe the proclam ation w a s really w r itten by Agoneillo, the form er representative of Aguinaldo in Europe, in Hongkong and that he probably never has seen Mal var. Strong efforts are being m ade by the police to prevent tbe distribution o f th e proclamation. The San Francisco Dock StriLe.
