In hard times like the present, fractional cur

goes hand in hand With necessity. It becomes
about as much Of an object under present cir
cumstances, and in view Of the holidays which
are fast approaching, not only to know where
to buy, but what 70 buy, and also how 70 buy
cheaply. All Of these requirements are fully
met at the popular jewelry ard silverware store

in order to close out business by the 1st of

fine gold watches, chains, solid silver and plated

Trades Unions in Austria.

The Vienna correspondent Of the
Eastern Budget, writing on the 18th
inst, says:
"The cessation Of the strikes which
a few months ago threatened to lead to
serious riots here is only to be regarded
as an armistice in the great conflict
which has broken out between masters
and men in Austria. The centres of
the trade union agitation are Vienna,
Prague, Brunn, Pesth, and Trieste.
Owing chiefly to the tact and modera-
ton Of the authorities, the agitation IN
the capital has been Invested OF Its
menacing character; but at Brunn and
Trieste it was found mO@ dlHhcult 70
