being il constant receipt of thcnewest and most
approved designs, it, can till orders with. a
promptness and accuracy unobtainabie else
where. The Company carries an unequaled
stock Of standard and novel furniture, besides
being sole Chicago agents for the admirable
Champion folding bed.
One Of the most interesting events of the
week was the special exhibit Of imported MIL
linerY novelties made last Thursday BY Messrs.
uagcdon Boyle j. Co., Of Nos. LII and 143 Wa
bash avenue. large number OF our most
prominent society ladies were present, ana the
exquisite showing OF rare and beautiful goods
elected the earnest encomtums OF all who were
in attendance. Large gatherings of fair patrons
arc present daily at this popular establishment.
Ono special feature Of the method with which
Ghormley, the eminent artist In modes, does
business, is the promptncss he always shows IN
finishing his orders at the time agreed upon.
Whether 1t be q rich and extensive bridal trous-
scau or q single costume for ordinary wear, the
result is always the same. The Indies know
that under his skilled direction their attire Will
not only be elegantly ansl stylishly designed and
perfectly made, but it will also be ready for
their use punctua1ly at the appointed day.
The prominent people Of the city-those who
understand such things thorouchly-are smiling
at the e-}lottr announcements made br q ccr
tain piano house, to the effect that the Ccnten-
nial Judges have recently united to give its in
strlt1lients special rating above all others ex-
hibited at Philadelphia. This question Of piano
supremacy was settled fully last year by the
Judges awarding unqucstioned superiority to
the Hallet, Davis & Co.'s Instruments. It is
altogether too late in the day to attempt to so
behind that verdict.

THE LEWIS POLYTECHNIC.

CHAMPAIGN, ILL.,, Nov. 16.-So one perhaps,
has rcjoiccd more than the writer over the wise
and generous bcquest Of Mr.. Lewis to found a
Polytechnic Institute In Chicago. Often, during
the past ten years, | hare urged upon some of
your prominent citizens the importance Of such
an institution to the material interests Of your
great city, affirming my belief that no other city
on this continent WAS so likely to found really
grand art aud science museum, and firSt-cfass
scientific and polytechnic school, as Chicago.
While visiting the great polytechnic schools and
Industrial art-museums of Europe, my thoughts
often reverted to your Queen City OF the Lakes
more than rival those of the Old World. The
most ot your citizens can foresee the world Of
good whicl, must grow out OF Mr.. Lewis be-
quest if properly and wisely carried into cxccu-
tiou-
Our thanks are due to your correspondent,
~. Ii. S.,'' for his kindly notice Of the Indus
trial University at Champaign, and especially
for luis wish that this magnificent bequest might
help to build on the broad foundations already
SO firmly laiu here. But the interests OF this
great Empire State of the West demand and
will amply occupy and sustain hoth OF these in
stitutions. Let the Lewis Polytechnic rise to
its fullest grandeur to grace Chicago, according
to the wish Of its generous fountlc-. Other
men of wealth, and all the more, will be found
to leave their money and link their memory
with the University whose beginnings have al
ready won the praise OF good authorities on both
sides Of the Atlantic, and whose students have
come from the four quarters Of the globe.

THE RAILROADS.


The Executive Committee of Western rail-
road managers, whose duty it is to see that the
rates on East-hound business are properly main
tanned, will meet at the Grand Pacific Hotel
Wednesday, and will try several Of the Western
roads which arr accused Of having violated tho
agreement II the charges against any Que Of
the roads arc proven, it will be dealt with very
severely, and will receive 10 more business
from tic trunk lines. There has a1so been con
siderable trouble lately in regard to passenger
rates. Some Of thu roads whose earnings from
the passenger business have greatly fallen off
since the close Of the Centennial claim taat
their rivals, which arc doing better, must nee
essari1y violate the rates or give special induce
ments to certain favoritc parties. This matter
will also be taken up and investigated by the
managers.
While it is almost certain that some roads
have violated the freight treaty it is not
tain that the passenger rates have been violated.
All the passenger and ticket agents in this city
esnphaticallv declare that they have rigidiy
maintained the rates, and that tile most rigid
investigation can establish nothing wrong
against them.
