MERRILL g. BARRON in this issue Of tn,
Times call attention to their Spring Stock
We have had but little time to look at theil
styles Of dry goods, butts as Mr.. B. is known
| to be faultless in taste, there will be no diff
ficulty in selecting from his shelves sucf
goods as will produce the greatest pleasure
to the wearcr and make the least impression
on the purse. Their display of empty box
cs indicates the receipt. Of large stock.
FRANK HANNAus also runs up the Flag Of
Trade and bids defiance to competition
He has been east several weeks and has
probably selected for his customers a good
slice of New York. Frank tells us that he
has bought few more fancy goods than
usual, probably for the purpose of inviting
the custom of the ladies) and that his stock
generally is larger and better selected thar
ever be.ore. There is no store in the west
where man will receive more gentlemanly
attention than is exhibited by Hannahs and
his attentive employees.
WELLS & Co. give notice to the naked
and the sccdy that their very large stock Of
Clothing Furnishing and Piece Goods and
their beautiful Hats have arrived. TERRY
does scarcely anything nowadays but take
in money, while der: schneider GLoUcKs
gives fits that are beautiful to behold. We
hope our last coat will wear out soon SO
that JOHN may scissor US out another
Wells & Co. have a splendid assortment.

Has it occurred to those who are prcpar-
ing for the western flight across the plains
that the friends they leave behind would be
delighted to have pictures Of the travellers.
The cost is mere tribe, and the gratifica-
ton Of looking at the faces Of the absent is
worth mint Of heart-noney. KENYON
has been travelling about North Iowa fol
some weeks taking pictures; his domestic
affairs require stay Of a week at McGregor
lie will be found in Jones & Bass building

ably been reading the Clipper and Wilkes

Weather. Markets, dc,

Weather, Markets, DC.
The weather continues cool, and dry, and
windy. Several attempts to rain have been
made but with the exception Of light
sprinkle on Sunday eveningwc arc as much
in the drouth as ever. The ccolness of the
air prevents fatal injury to the wheat and
oats sown, but in many fields the earth has
blown away from the roots and the plant
must perish. The want Of rain is really be-
coming scrious. Ice is manufactured every
night.
On Friday and Saturday last the Wheat
and Flour markets went away up on the re-
ceipt of the steamers news but the ''spir-
it, only lasted two days. The market for
wheat on the days mentioned was 81, 90 to
sl,o4 with large deliveries. On Tuesday it
fell to 81 to 100 for the best quality. A de.
cline at Milwaukee and Chicago caused the
fall here. Oats are worth p to %. Corn
Al to -. Flour at retail 1915 to $500.
Hoffman, Benton 4 Co.'s report will give
the prices of produce and merchandise gen.
orally. Frcights to st. Louis have fallen
to 10 cents OH wheat and to 8 cents on
oats, but the st. Louis market has also de-
clined. The river trade Is active now no
less than 10 boats went up in as many hours
during a night Of last week; they all go
down we'll freighted.
