In order to make room for our next Spring Stock, wo have decided to make a Special Sale of Wall Paper. Our paper trade this season has been good and our stock is small.

Our etock includca WHITE, BLANK, PLAIN GOLD and EMBOSSED PAPERS which we will sell at Lesstbao HAlF T H E I R V A L U E . Prices firoisbed on application. We are Agents for the Alston M'f'g.

These Paints we can recommend to be Pure. Thny contain nothing but STRICTLY PURE LEAD, ZINC, AND PURE LINSEED OIL. "What shall I do with the outside of my house?" is.a question often asked by those who wish to paint. In exterior decoration, the surroundings should be taken into consideration, and the building treated in such a way as to harmonise as nearly as possible with the'm ; especially should this be the case in suburban residences, as there is nothing that so effectually deatroys the beauty of a landscape as to see a house painted in colors that are in discord with objects about it. This subject has become so important, we have naturally taken a great inter eat in it and have given it no little study. We shall be pleased to answer any spe- cific questions thai may be addressed to us. ATTENTION is called to the fact that nearly all other manufacturers of mix- ed paints «re obliged to give a rule for the covering capacity of their paints, re- quiring from 15 to 25 per cent , more than this, simply because THE SHKRWIN- WIL- LlAlts PAINT is properly made and of pure materials, and therefore admits of be- ing rubbed out under the brush like any pure lead, zinc and oil paint, not lequir- ing to be "flowed on," as the manufacturers of cheap paints direct their products to be used. We have just received a fine line of Perfumes and Face Powders includ- Jng Domestic and Imported. A fine line of new Toilet Soaps is in stock. Our line of BAS£ BALL GOODS will be found complete. CARRIAGE PAINTS. Our Stock of these goods comprise all the leading colors. Call an l examine them. PAINTS IN SMALL CANS for family use, we have them in all colors and sizes of cans. PAINT BRUSHES.

Our stock of Patent Medicines compnseo nearly every article in tbo market. Our prices will be found ss low as consistent for good goods.

ILLINOIS SUPREME COURT SAYS THE ANARCHISTS MUST DIE, Complete Coucarrence of All the Jad(ea In the Material Points of t h e Fateful Iteclslon —Seene In the Court When the Words of Doom Were Spc' ^n—Judge Mnjfmder Hakes the Announcement. O TTAWA, Ills., Sept. 15.—The supreme court has handed down a decision affirming the decision of the criminal court of Cook county in the case of the condemned Anarch- isU, which means that the following must hang: August Spies, A. R Parsons, Samuel Flelden, Michael Schwab, George En gel, A d o l p h Fischer, LooisLingg. And that Oscar W. Neehe roust serve fifteen year* in the penitentiary. The date of the execution is Nov. 11 next X At 9:40 o'clock 'jj. Justice Magruder began the an- nouncement of the JUSTICE UAORUDIR decision in THE case. Just before the opening of court every one seemed to have a feeling that something was going to happen. Before the hour for convening the court, lawyers and reporters seemed to have that feeling, and con- vened with each other in snbdued tones. Even Barker, the janitor, who has waited upon every justice of the supreme court that sat upon the bench in Ottawa, tiptoed around in opening and dusting the court-room, as it he was afraid of break- ing the deathly still- ness that pervaded the entire building. De- puty Smith faltered and his voice trembled as he pronounced the "hear ye, hear ye." As the justices filed SPIRS. into the oourt-room. headed by Chief Justice Sheldon, they appeared mora dignified than ever. The chief justice waved his associatM to their seats even more stately than his wont, his nod to the sheriff was more stiff, and bis "Open court" le«a audible than on the pre- vious days of the tarro. Justice Ma- gruder appeared flushed and nervous as he e tered the court-room, the cause of which was evidenced a few moments later when Chief Justice Sheldon turned to him and, in a voice which would have been inaudible save for the deathly stillness which per- vaded the room, said: "Justice Magruder, have you any an- nouncement to make I* PARSONS. Theflushedappearance of the justice changed to that of pallor, and hi* rpice was hqsky a-t be r?sp3nd»i: "In August Si las and others against the people of the state of Illinois, Na 59, advisement docket" The chief Justice nervously turned the leaves of the court docket to the case in- dicated, when the justice read the decision of the court hi the Anarchists' case. As he commenced reading he regained his composnra. His voice was clear and distinct until the or- der fixing the death penalty and date cf^ execution wasreacheJ, when his reading be- ^ came labored, his voice bosky, and bis manner ^ showed it was with the nXLDXlf. greatest emotion that he performed the duty be had been delegated Sy his associates to perform. In this case the judgment of the court be- low is affirmed as to all the plaintiffs in er- ror. An opinion has been prepared setting forth the reasous for the affirmance of the judgment. The opin- ion is now handed to the dark to be filed by ^ ySVa* dark. Chief Jus "oe Sheldon started to fix the date of execu- when JndgA Mul- key,interrupting, said: "It is not my intention SCHWAB. to offer a separate opinion, as I should have done I desire to avail myself of this occasion to say that while I concur in the oondusions reached and also in general views entered in opinion filed, I do not wish to be understood as holding that the record is free from error, for I do not think it ia I am nevertheless of the opinion that none of the errors com- plained of are of such eerio<4 eharacW as lo require a reversal of ,/. the judgment. In view /MA of the number of de- fendants on trial, the great length of time consumed in trial, the vast amount of testi- mony offered and LIKOO. iwsted upon by the court, and the almost numberless rulings the court was required to make, the wonderment to me is that errors were not more numerous and of more serious character. "In short, after having fully examined the record and given the questions arising on it my very best thought, with an earnest aud conscientious desire to faithfully discharge my whole duty, I am fully satisfied that the opinion reached vindi- cates the law and does complete justice be- tween the people and defendants, fully FISCHER. warranted by the law and the evidence." Chief Justice Sheldon made the following in^ announcement: 'In this c&te the couri orders that the sentence of the criminal court of Cook county on the defendants in the indictment of August Bpie<, Michael Schwab, Samuel Fieldon, Albert It Parsons, Adolph Fisher, George Kngel, and Louis Lingg, he carrie.l into effect by the sheriff of Cook county on Fri- day, Nov. 11 next, between the hours of 10 o'dock in the fore- noon and 4 o'clock in the afternoon of that day." The opinion in the caso was written by Justice Mngruder of the Chicago district, EKOEL. and is an exposition of the law and previous interpretations thereof by eminent jurists in this country, as well as of the court's bearing upon the alleged and perhaps real errors in the record. In his work he was ably helped by each of the other six di&tinguLshed judgef, who made him their spokesman and through him expressed their unanimous decision. The opinion covers 22>i pages closely written manuscript and con- tains about 50,000 words. Tho condemned Anarchists did not depend upon what they term capitalistic press for authentic news of their fflfc. Within a few moments after the decision was announced Carl Azwansig, editor of The German Her- ald, and pronounced sympathized with the reds, approreJ in tlie telegraph office in tow of a couple of his political friends and dic- tated a dispatch informing the reds that no hope remained for them It was addressed August Spies, county jail. ARMY OF THE TENNESSEE. The Nest Reunion To Be Held at Toledo in September, 1888. DETROIT, Mich., Sept 15.—At Thursday moruing's session of the Society of the Army of the Tennesiee tho committee appointed to select a place and time for holding the next reunion, reported in favor of Toledo, Ohio, Sept 15nnd 10, 1888, and the report was adopted. The committer on the next orator reported CoL Gilbert A. Pierce with Gen. Smith D. Atkins as alternate, and their ac- tion was also indorsed. The committee to se- lect a permanent location for headquarters, and the selection of that or some other point as a place for all annual meetings, reported first in favor of a permanent headquarters at some central location until a two-thirds vote of the society changed that location. It was adverse to fixing any one point at which tho society would be obliged to hold its annual meeting. The report was adopted, and Cin- cinnati made the headquarters, the annual expense of such not to exceed $300. The of- ficers of the society resident at Cindnnati were authorized to select rooms. Gen. Green B. Raum read resolutions of cor.dolence and respect prepared a committee n honor of Gen. John A. Logan, They re- dew bis record and qualities as a soldier with words of the highest praise, as well as his earnest support of President Lincoln in In a vigorous prosecution of the war. The resolutions recommend the erection of a statute at the national capitol to perpetuate the memory of the dead hem sympathy was extended to Mrs. Logan and family. Gen. W. T. Sherman was elected president. LICKED UP IN TWO HOURS. Moat of the Town of Ironr.ood, Mleh.— Loss About 9250,000. HURLEY, Wis., Sept 1ft -The business por- tion of the town of Ironwood, Mich., was al- most totally destroyed by AM Saturday after- aoon. The fire broke out about 1 o'dock in a building occupied in part by a cigar fac- tory, and soon spread to the adjoining structures, which were of wood, and in the course of two hours some fifty or more buildings and much valuable merchandise were destroyed. The citizens worked hard to extinguish the fire and save their prop- erty, but the means at hand were inadequate, and bat for for the hard work done by the Hurley fire department nearly the entire town would have been oosstimed. The total loss will amount to nearly 1250,000, and tho insur- ance in reliable companies is very light Many families are rendered homeless. Among the heavy losers are Bingham & Per- rin, general merchandise, $76,i)00; Hoxie & Miller, lumber yard and buildings, 120,000; Ironwood company, store, $25,1X0. About fifty other losses, ranging from $1,000 to $lo,- 000, will aggregate about $128,000. GUILTY OF MANSLAUGHTER. Mnnchrath, of the Alleged Murderers of Bev.' Hadilock Convicted. Sioux CITY, Iowa, Sept 19.—Shortly be- fore 2 o'dock Sunday the jury in the cde- bratod Haddock murder case, which went out Saturday evening at 6:40 brought in a verdict finding the defondant guilty of man- dougbtftr. The penalty in Iowa for man- daughter is from one to eight years. The court will pass sentence faept 80, and until then the defendant will remain at liberty on hi^bond. A motion will be made for a new trial and it this is denied the case will be ap- pealed. Unless other arrangements are made a special venire will be ordered by the court and the trial of Granda, a codefendant, pro- ceed. KUllns Frosts Reported. WASHINGTON CUT, Sept 19.—In its weekly weather report the slgnd service reports that killing frosts have occurred dur- ing the past week in the larger portions of Dakota and Minnesota, northern portions of Wisconsin and Michigan, northeast portion of New York and northern Vermont, aud light frosts in Wyoming, southern Dakota, northern Nebraska, southern Michigan, central New York and the greater portion of Maine. Cholera Violent at Messina. ROME, Sept 19.—The cholera epidemic at Messina is of the most violent character, death in many cases ensuing within an hour after the appearance of the disease. The mortality is not confined to the lower classes. Tim epidemic has reached the inmates of the prisuiis. Prorogation of Parliament. LONDON, Sept 17.—Parliament was pro- rogued Friday. The queen's speech refers to the setUbmeut of the Afghan boundary ques- tion, the situation in Egypt, and the appoint- mont of a commission to contider the llsliur- iea question, and grieves that no mitigation of the sufferings of British agriculturists has been afforded. She trusts that the legislation for Ireland will restore law and order in that island, and that next session other important measures f )r the good of other parts of the kingdom may be acted upon. She also ex- presses her thanks for the warm and hearty proofs of affection shown her by all classes on the occasion of her jubilee. FIRES AND OTHFR ACCIDENTS. A fire at Lake Crystal, Minn., early Thurs- day morning, destroyed property of the esti- mated value of $40,125. Tho Buffalo, N.

key,interrupting, said: "It is not my intention

SCHWAB. to offer a separate opinion, as I should have done I desire to avail myself of this occasion to say that while I concur in the oondusions reached and also in general views entered in opinion filed, I do not wish to be understood as holding that the record is free from error, for I do not think it ia I am nevertheless of the opinion that none of the errors com-plained of are of such eerio<4 eharacW as lo require a reversal of ,/. the judgment. In view /MA of the number of de-fendants on trial, the great length of time consumed in trial, the vast amount of testi-mony offered and LIKOO. iwsted upon by the court, and the almost numberless rulings the court was required to make, the wonderment to me is that errors were not more numerous and of more serious character.

"In short, after having fully examined the record and given the questions arising on it

my very best thought, with an earnest aud conscientious desire to faithfully discharge my whole duty, I am fully satisfied that the opinion reached vindi-cates the law and does complete justice be-tween the people and

defendants, fully FISCHER. warranted by the law

and the evidence." Chief Justice Sheldon made the following

in^ announcement: ' In this c&te the couri

orders that the sentence of the criminal court of Cook county on the defendants in the indictment of August Bpie<, Michael Schwab, Samuel Fieldon, Albert I t Parsons, Adolph Fisher, George Kngel, and Louis

Lingg, he carrie.l into effect by the sheriff of Cook county on Fri-day, Nov. 11 next, between the hours of 10 o'dock in the fore-noon and 4 o'clock in the afternoon of that day."

The opinion in the caso was written by Justice Mngruder of the Chicago district,

EKOEL. and is an exposition of the law and previous interpretations thereof by eminent jurists in this country, as well as of the court's bearing upon the alleged and perhaps real errors in the record. In his work he was ably helped by each of the other six di&tinguLshed judgef, who made him their spokesman and through him expressed their unanimous decision. The opinion covers 22>i pages closely written manuscript and con-tains about 50,000 words.

Tho condemned Anarchists did not depend upon what they term capitalistic press for authentic news of their fflfc. Within a few moments after the decision was announced Carl Azwansig, editor of The German Her-ald, and pronounced sympathized with the reds, approreJ in tlie telegraph office in tow of a couple of his political friends and dic-tated a dispatch informing the reds that no hope remained for them It was addressed August Spies, county jail.

S e p t e m b e r , 1888.

DETROIT, Mich., Sept 15.—At Thursday moruing's session of the Society of the Army of the Tennesiee tho committee appointed to select a place and time for holding the next reunion, reported in favor of Toledo, Ohio, Sept 15nnd 10, 1888, and the report was adopted. The committer on the next orator reported CoL Gilbert A. Pierce with Gen. Smith D. Atkins as alternate, and their ac-tion was also indorsed. The committee to se-

lect a permanent location for headquarters, and the selection of that or some other point as a place for all annual meetings, reported first in favor of a permanent headquarters at

some central location until a two-thirds vote of the society changed that location. It was adverse to fixing any one point at which tho society would be obliged to hold its annual meeting. The report was adopted, and Cin-cinnati made the headquarters, the annual expense of such not to exceed $300. The of-ficers of the society resident at Cindnnati were authorized to select rooms.

Gen. Green B. Raum read resolutions of cor.dolence and respect prepared a committee n honor of Gen. John A. Logan, They re-dew bis record and qualities as a soldier with words of the highest praise, as well as his earnest support of President Lincoln in In a vigorous prosecution of the war. The resolutions recommend the erection of a statute at the national capitol to perpetuate the memory of the dead hem sympathy was extended to Mrs. Logan and family. Gen. W. T. Sherman was elected president.

Loss A b o u t 9250,000.

HURLEY, Wis., Sept 1ft -The business por-tion of the town of Ironwood, Mich., was al-most totally destroyed by AM Saturday after-aoon. The fire broke out about 1 o'dock in a building occupied in part by a cigar fac-tory, and soon spread to the adjoining structures, which were of wood, and in the course of two hours some fifty or more buildings and much valuable merchandise were destroyed. The citizens worked hard to extinguish the fire and save their prop-erty, but the means at hand were inadequate, and bat for for the hard work done by the Hurley fire department nearly the entire town would have been oosstimed. The total loss will amount to nearly 1250,000, and tho insur-ance in reliable companies is very light Many families are rendered homeless. Among the heavy losers are Bingham & Per-rin, general merchandise, $76,i)00; Hoxie & Miller, lumber yard and buildings, 120,000; Ironwood company, store, $25,1X0. About fifty other losses, ranging from $1,000 to $lo,-000, will aggregate about $128,000.

SOMEBODY wants to know why they don't call up the spirits and find out if Shakespeare is Shakespeare or if he's

THE three "wet" counties of Georgia are Hall, "Walton and Gwinnett, named after Georgia's three singers of the Dec-laration of Independetic *. Hill Arpsays he "reckons it must he the spirit of "7(5 that keeps it •wet."

THOSE democrats (and they are not few) who do not wish for the renomi-nation of Cleveland, but know it can't be helped, call him "The Inevitable." Crow by any other name is just as black and hard to swallow.

THE Prairie Farmer and Kansas Far-mer are taking straw votes on presiden-tial preferences at various State and dis-trict fairs. At tho Ohio State fair at Columbus last week. 2,5-11 Republicans voted for Blame, 3,180 for Sherman, 288 for Foraker and 115 for Lincoln.

THE New York World interviewed about 400 delegates a t the New York State Convention at Saratoga, as to their preferences for president. Of th»8e 201 were out and out for Blaine, 23 were for Depew and 19 for Lincoln.

THE New York Tribune says the politi-cal compaign in that State next month will be liyely for many reasons, prime among which is the part the United Lalwr party will play—or perhaps work —in it. The organization, it is taid, has already airanged for 250 mass meet-

ings.

THE result of the proposition of the free trade democrats to throw Randall overboord is prophetically depected as follows by the Macon. Ga., (dem.) Tele-graph:

"When the gentlemen who are engag-ed in reading all the brains and character out of the democratic party have con-cluded their patriotic labors, the health officers will removed the remainder.

A GREAT deal is said about the wick-edness of turning the grand army into a partisan organization. "Politics must be kept out of it!" exclaims the dem-ocratic press. Very well; keep politics out. Don't hang out campaign banners of the next democratic candidate for the presidency whenever the boys in blue march by. Keep politics out of the way of veterans.—JVeif York Tribune.

THE Rev. Messrs. Jones and Small have suffered some ungarded utterances on the pubject of political parties to es-cape them, and their influence for good among democrats Ins been somewhat impaired in consequence. This is re-garded by the Chicago Tribune aa pe-culiarly unfortunate on account of the

Sjat need, everywhere recognized, of ormatory and evangelizing work

among democra t .

HERE is a good text for a campaign oration, taken from the Louisville Cour-ier-Journal, the leading organ of tha Kentucky democracy. What do you think, old soldier, of a democracy which will breathe such utterances?

"There are several people in this coun-try besides the "O. S."—in factseveral to his one and the immense majority who are not "old soldiers" are getting tired of the "old soldier bore". It is about time tor the "O. S." to dry up and be forever silent. Like any other butcher or hired assuasin, the "O. S." is a killer who went out to kill men for ?16 a month and found. Killers—hired kill-ers—shall no longer be honored, neither shall they be rewarded.

THE Rev. Sam Small in one of his dis-courses recently said: " I was born a democrat, raised a democrat. I studied its principles fully. I worked for it. I have spent money for it. I have drank whiskey for it. I have lied for it. I have stolon ballots for it. I have stuffed boxes for it. I did all it told me, and it took me within a half mile of hell." This statement of facts aroused the dem-ocrat journals to a furious personal on-slaught upon Mr. Small. To read their articles one would infer that they had bden a quarter of a mile at least nearer headquarters than Mr. Small ever was. And bourbon painjM are still more ex-cited by the statement of tho greater and other Sara, whose surname is Jones, that he was a democrat as long as a Christian could be oue.—Adrain Times.

THE Lansing Republican calls atten-tion to tho suit that has been con'-menced in Grand Rapids, in tho result of which most of the cities of the state are interested. I t ueems that the city council of Grand Rapids, with the usual unwisdom of such bodies, gran -ted a charter to an electnc company giving that company the exclusive right to the use of the street for wires, poles, etc. Now the Edison company wants to put its lights In the city, and the chartered company applied for an injunction, claiming the exclusive priv-ilege granted in its charter. I t is expec-ted that the suit will test the question whether a common council has legal power to take from the people wnd grant to anybody the exclusive use of the street, as is so often done to ga",

etreet railway, water, telephone, and other companies. Is the public control over the streets alienable? It is thought that this question may be carried up to the United States Supreme Court. Of course -the two companies may join issue upon some less vital question, or may not push this question to the last resort. But it is to be hoped that they wiil, because it is a question of wide and deep scope, in which every city and village in the State has or may have a strong interest. It would be worth a good deal to some cities to have a de-cision setting them free from outra-geous monopolies imposed upon them by former councils, and perhaps a great deal to the general public to have the power to set up such monoplies forever broken.

PniLADEU'UU, P«., Sept. 16.—Aocording lo good Judge* of such things there are 000 strangers in this city, called hither by the centennial celebration of tho constitution of the United Stnlos. Thursday was tho

opening day, dud the weather was simply I)erfect, Tho city is literally a flutter of bunting, with patriot-ic devices thickly strewn all over town, ond the "Cradle of Liberty" rocked itself to s l e e p Thursday night with the con-sciousness of having put in a good day's work at patriotic en-

JOIIN A. KASSOW. joymont The visiting justices of tho United States

supreme court were entertained at breakfast in the Academy of Music by about 200 law-yers of this city. Mr. McMurtrie presided. On his right were seated Chief Justice Waite, Judgo Faxon, of tho supreme court of Penn-sylvania; Justice Harlan, Governor Beaver, Justice Blatchford, and Judge Strong. On his left were Justice Miller, ex-Attorney Gen-eral Brewster, Judge Hare, States Attor-ney General Kirk-Patrick, and Jus -lice Matthews, of the supreme court

The menu was a genuiae work of art. The card was fold-ed up iu the shape of a legal paper book of the regula-tion size, and writ-ten across the back in script was thofol- CHIEF JVSTJC* WATTB

lowiug: "September Term, 1887. High Court of the Constitutional Celebration of the Phil-adelphia Bar vs. the Justices of the Supreme Court of tho United States e aL BUI of par-ticulars filed Sept 15, 1887." Above the bill of fare was an excellent portrait of the late Chief Justice Marshall

Among the guests were many distinguished jurists. The toasts were to "The Supreme Court," "The Constitution of 1787," "The Or-igin of the Federal Union," and "The Amer-ican Lawyer," tho chief justice responding to the first

Of course the center of attraction was the industrial parade, which was conceived by CoL A. L Snowdon, who was grand marshal of the day, and tbe gentlempn who have so successfully managed

the celebration's gen-eral affairs—John A. Kasson, president of the committee; Amos R. Little, chairman executive committee, and Hampton L Car son, secretary, had seats on the reviewing stand opposite t h e Union League olnb on Broad street To say there were thon-sands of people in the

cou SNOWDEN. streeta is to say what is always said of such occasions, and is true of this event in the most commonplace man-ner. There actually were tens of thousands of people on the streets, and they were so thick at the grand stand that tbe police had great difficulty in making a clear passage for the procession. Along the line of march there bad been a telegraph line pnt up, and sixteen stations at which dispatches were re-ceived and sent, and all the side streets on the procession's route had been roped off and traffic suspended.

Tbe street presented an inspiring appear-ance. In all directions, as far as tho eye can reach, it was one mass of bunting and decorotion. Many of the newspaper offices and public buildings made a lavish display, the decorators having worked early and late to complete their work in time. At day-break in the morning they were still at work, putting the fin-ishing touches which AUOS R. LITTLE.

had been delayed more or less by the in-clement weather.

North Broad street was so crowed as to he almost impassible as early as 7 o'clock, and tho great crowds blocked themwlves togoth-er in the streets notwithstanding the efforts of the police to keep the latter dear.

Some houses were almost covered with he-roic statues of Columbia surrounded by tbe flags of all nations, while oth'.'r fronts were completely concealed with bunting. The Odd Fellows1 hall exhibited a banner an-nouncing that place as the spot where Frank-Jin drew lightning from lbs clouds in 1752, and at other points busts cf Washington were mounted in front of the houses and pro-lusoly decorated.

At 10:25 the word was flashed along tho line that the monster prooe^ion, composed of ilO(i floats, each bear-ing a representation of some p a r t i c u l a r branch of industry, 12,000 m e n , 8 , 0 0 0 horses, and 150 bands of music was in mo-tion and a hum ran through tho crowd. Meantime the grand stand w a s filling up with the distinguished

H. R. CARSON. guests, the governors, foreign ministers, and others. As the differ-ent governors passed np or down Broad street aud were recognized they received round after round of cheers, and tbe ladies and children joined in the greeting by waving hats, handkerchiefs and parasols.

The constitutional centennial commission was officially represented on the grand stand by Hon. John A. Easson, president; Hoa Amos R. Little, chairman of the executive committee: Hampton L Carson, secretary; F. Carroll Srewstsr, Jr., corresponding sec-retary, and Assistant Secretary Black, who occupied seals on the front of the stand There were governors and other state offlciab from nearly every state and territory in tho union present on tbe stand by the time the

procession passed by, Tho procession wan headed by a cordon of

mounted police and following these rode CoL A. Louden Snowden, chief marshal, and his Btaff of fifty aides; a standard-bearer and two trumpeters. Directly behind them, and leading the column itself, was the United States Marine band, followed by a grand banner representing "Columbia" pointing to the past with one hand and with ths other to the present, the former being represented by old implements and conditions, tho latter by those of co-day, indicating progress. The banner typified the demonstration and was drawn on a car by six horses. Tho display from this point was divided into twenty-three divisions, each being under the charge and supervision of an assistant marshal and several aides. Tho fioats exhibited tbe pro-gress of the conntry since tbe constitution was adopted in agriculture, mechanics, and the arts. One float would show tho appliances, etc, in use loO yoata ago and the next would contrast them with the appliances of the present day. The Patriotic Sons of America lead the proceasion and presented a fine ap-pearance. One of the divisions illustrated the advance of the Indian race.

The men in line vied with cach other in the presenting a handsome appearance. The uniforms were all new, and the marching it-self was a marvel of excellence. When tbe colored hod carriern union passed Governor Beaver's balcony their band struck up "Hail to the Chief." and were roundly cheered by the crowd Governor Beaver bowed his acknowL-dgement of the compliment from his colored friends. An idea of the enormous proportions of the industrial parado may be gained from the fact that at 2:.'I0 o'clock seven of the twenty-throe divisions had passed the reviewing stand and by tho time the seventh division had pawod south-ward the head of tho column bad arrived on their counter march, having traveled twenty-three squares.

The United States war vessels anchored iu the harbor were handsomely decorated with flags and bunting during the day and at night illuminated with Chinese lanterns. Beautiful pyrotechnic displays were made from all the vessels in the harbor in the even-ing.

The presidential party, consisting of the president, Mrs. Cleveland, Secretary Bayard, and CoL and Mrs, Lamont, left Washington at 4 o'clock p, m,, Thursday, At Wilming-ton they were met by tho Philadelphia recep-tion committee and escorted to this city. The city troops escorted the party from the sta-tion to the Lafayette hotel An immense crowd had gathered there and cheered and called so persistently that tbe president and Mrs, Cleveland appeared on the balcony and bowed their acknowledgment amid tremen-dous cheering. Subsequently in conversation President Cleveland expressed himself highly gratified by tho cordiality of his receptioa

Cardinal Gibbons was accorded a brilliant reception at the Catholic dub. The parlors of the club were handsomely decorated. When the cardinal arrived at 8:30 be found Governor Beaver and staff awaiting, and a pleasant greeting followed. About 10 o'clock President Cleveland called. He was accom-panied by Secretaries Bayard and Fairchild, George W. Childs, and many other promi-nent gentlemen.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept 17,—The second day of the constitutional centennial opened bright and clear. Tbe sound of fife and drum, which were heard long before the tired visitors had arisen, announced that preparations were being made for the grand parade of the country's defenders. The streets were filled with soldiers who came from almost every state in the Union to participate iu the mili-tary pageant It is estimated that fully 80,000 soldiers passed in review by midday led by Gen, Phil Bheridan. The lowest cal-culations place the number of visitors in tbe city at 500,000, and notwithstanding this im-mense influx not a serious accident has oc-curred to mar the occasion.

President and Mrs. Cleveland were accorded a brilliant reception at tbe Academy of Mu-sic in tbe evening. It was one of the greatest social gatherings ever witnessed in Philadel-phia. It is estimated that over 10,000 promi-nent gentlemen and ladies entered the mag-nificently decorated building and grasped Mr. Cleveland's hand The large hall was uncomfortably filled long before the presi-dential party arrived. The latter consisted of the president and Mm Cleveland, Justicos Harlan and Miller, Secretaries Bayard and Fairchlid, CoL Lamont, ex-President Haye*, Mrs, Lamont, Mrs. Cad wal loder, Mrs. Frank-lin Dick, Mr, and Mrs. Amos R, Little, Gov-ernor Biggs (of Delaware), Mr, and Mis, Han-nibal Hamlin, Mr. and Mrs. C. J, Harrah, and Mayor Fitler. They took up a position at the rear end of the stage. Cardinal Gib-bons, Archbishop Ryan, the visiting diplo-mats, Gen, Sheridan, and Admiral Luce were the first to greet the president It was mid-oigbt before the tedious pump-handle process of handshaking was concluded.

PHILADELPHIA, P a , Sept 17.—Tbe closing day of the constitutional celebration was fa-vored with as charming weather as that of tbe first two days. The exercises Saturday were held on Independence square, under the shadow of the liberty bell, which "proclaimed liberty throughout the land" a hundred years ago, and consisted of speeches by the presi-dent, Chief Justice Miller and others.

Will Wonders Ever Cease? It is a surprise to every one to see tho

iilaughter we are making on prices for Ladies and Childrens Muslin Underwear, but it is unwise for anyone to stand and wonder over tho matter and let others take all tlie bargainf. We have jus t re-ceived another immense stock of those goods,—we have three grade!1!—and are offering them at tho extreme low price of 15c, SBO and BOR each. These good-are worth double the money, but wo have buperier advantages in buying them and are willing to give our customers the benefit of it. Call and see them and be convinced. Our stock in other lines is complete and prices as low as the lowest Our Carpet stock is the larget we ever had and our largely increasing sales are evidence that the prices are satifactory.

IN BRIEF, AND TO THE POINT.

Dyspepsia Is dreadful. Disorded liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good nature. The human digestion apparatus is one of the most complicated and won-derful things iu existence. It is easily put out of order.

Greasy food, tough food, sloppy,food, bad cookery, mental worry, late hours, irregular habits, and many other things which ought not to be, have made the American peoole a nation of dyspeptics.

But Green's August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad business and making the American peo-ple so healthy.that they can enjoy their meals and be happy.

Remember:—No happiness without health. But Green's August Flower brings health and happiness to the dyspeptic. Ask vour druegist for a bottle. Seventy five cents.

and thus be convinced of its wondertul curative powers. Dr. King's New Disr covery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, will be, for a limited time, given away.

Beardslee, an old gentleman, a f a rm-er who lives near Cedar Springs, died suddenly the 14th of hydrophobia, at the age of about 80. Some forty year? ago he was bitten by a mad dog. He recovered from the slight wound, speed-ily, and very little had been thought of it by him since; it had almost escaped his memory. On Sunday last he was taken ill with the unmiscakable symptoms of hydrophobia, which resulted fatally. This strange and terrible case has natur-ally occasioned much comment,

H. M, Max ted, of Greenville, who was arrested the other day by the Unit-ed Stttes authorites on the charge of forgery, was tried before a United States Commissioner at Niles for tbe offense and discharged. The plea of tbe defense that while the name of L. S. Walters ha d technically been forged to a money order, there was no criminal intent, was sustained by the testimoney, Walters being an agent for the company for which Masted worked. The money had been sent in payable to Walters, but belonged to the company, and it was in the regular course of businesi that Walters' name was signed,

Mrs. Ophelia, wife of Rev. George Barnum. passed from earth Sunday,Sep. 18th, 1887, after a long illness, having suffered from a stroke of paralysis some time ago, from which she never fully recovered.

She was the mother of aleven children, ten of whom are now living, grown to manhood and woman-hood—six sons and four daughters. She was ever a devoted wife and a loving and indulgent mother, and leaves a very large ciicle of warm friends, beside refa-t'ves. who will hold her memory sacred. She was buried from the residence of E. R. Craw, where she died, Wednesday afternoon. Rev, J , T, Husted officiated.
