 A New Idea.
 VII A corset without clasps, without la ces, that can be put on and fixed in half a minute, that fits well and is comfortable. This is novelty all ladies should at least SEE Ask for the Belt Corset.

Unusual at this Season.


 I. Sweeping reductions on a large quanti- ty of Dress Goods These have been put into three lots at 25c soc and 75c. In the 75c lot are some immense bargains, and all are away far below their market value.
 Very Acceptable Bargains. II. We have had all this season the best and cheapest lot of CLOAKINGS in the city. We have just gone through them, and re- duced the price of all short lengths, making a lot of splendid bargains for those wanting material for misses and children's cloaks, jackets or overcoats.
 Important.
 III. We have just closed out an import CTS stock of CIoaks at very large reduc- tion. They are all very superior garments, of this seasons importation from Europe, in the latest styles, and beautifully gotten up. It is a pretty large lot, and we want to run them off if possible before Christmas. We have therefore been careful to mark them with prices which we think will ensure that end. Since we opened them on Friday we have made good progress. and ladies desiring to secure garments of superior style at prices less than are charged for ordinary domestic goods, should come soon, before the best pat terms are gone.
 What is Wanted.
 W, Our stock of Knitted Goods for la dies and children is now full and varied. Jackets, Hoods, Nubias, Clouds, Fascinators, Mitts, Leggins, &c.
 Good Trade.
 v We are doing a very brisk trade in La dies and Children's Underwear. The reason undoubtedly is that we have a better stock and charge less than other dealers. The pub lie very soon find out where the best value is.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

A new development in the remarkable Theophilus Youngs case is his identification by his daughter. This identification is oi such character as to leave little doubt that Youngs is really Youngs, as he claims to be. It is also stated that he has good reason to leave his wife and keep away from her.

English insolvency courts do not seem to do their work much cheaper than our own. The London Economist prints the facts in the case of small London bankrupt, whose debts were $5, $50 and his assets $6,340, but as $4, 1925 were spent in collecting $9o ot debts, and other legal expenses had to be met, the unpreferred creditors received about one cent on the dollar.

The cooperative building societies of Philadelphia are famous, but it will proba- bIy surprise most of our readers to be told either one of which is larger than any two in the city of Philadelphia They are under the leadership of the following well-known gen tlemen: The Hon. Josiah Quincy, the Hon. Joseph S. Ropes and Robert Treat Paine, jr. The total assets of these three associations now amount to one hundred thousand dol lars, and they contain 1,25O members. As an evidence of what these associations are doing for the laboring men, the following transaction may be quoted which oc- cured at the last meeting of the Workingmen's Cooperative Saving Fund and Loan Association, of which MT. Paine is the president. The sum of $l,200 was bid of to a laboring man at premium of twenty-five cents per share, which means simply that he hired this money (probably for building), and, having offered proper col laterals, he receives his money and pays to the association, every month, dues on shares $6; interest on 6 shares, $6; preml- um on shares at 9 cents, $1.50; total per month, SIS 50, instead of paying S25 pen month for house rent Why not have al east one such association in New Haven?

Some ''nice young men'' of Northampton, Mass, have come to grief. They were pop ular clerks in whom their employers had con- fidence, but they have carried on systematic stealing for long time and used the pro ceeds of their crimes in having ia good time" and dressing well. Eight have been caught and several more are said to be inn plicated. Many of them are members of the first families" and they are all doubtless now of the opinion that it pays to be honest even on a small salary.

Cremation.
Burning of the Body of Mrs. Moves, of Warren, Pa.-How a Husband Kept His Promise.


 [From the New York Herald.I
 WASHINGTON, PA Nov 25.-'The incinera- ton of the body of Mrs. Moves, of Warren, Pa, took place to-day. On the arrival of the remains at the Charters Valley Railroad depot they were at once conveyed to the crematory. Several inches of snow fell last night, which helped to make the roads very slippery, and it was with difficulty the horses pulled up the road which winds around the hill till the top is reached. Rev George P. Hayes, who conducted the religious services did not arrive until one o'clock.
 The services being over the body was placed in the iron crib, which has gone through all the fires which have been light ed on the pyre, and at just one o'clock it was slid into the retort. The cremation was complete in about two hours. The ashes will probably not be removed before Friday night or Saturday morning, when they will be sent by express to MT. c. H. Moves, the husband of the deceased.
 The casket which contained the remains was beautiful one covered with black cloth. | The handles were of silver, as was also 8 | plate containing the following

Captain Franks Murderer Indicted.


George Thomas alias William Jones has
been indicted In Warwick county, Va, on
the charge OF attempting to murder Will
liam Selby. and OF the murder OF Captain
Milton b. Frank and William Gage. all on
board of the schooner MignOnette. Mr..
Augustus f. Colbert, OF this city, together
with SelDy, the mate, went down on Tues
day last. IL was expected that Mrs. Frank,
wife of the murdered man, would throw
some light on the question whether the man
was really Jones or Thomas, as Thomas
had done some work for her in the house
while the Mignonette was here loading.
When the man captured in Hsyre de Grace
was brought through here on his way to
Norfolk Mrs. Frank went down to the
Norfolk boat to see him. After scanning
him carefuIly, she said that he looked and
talked liked Thomas, but she hardly thought
he was large enough to answer to her recol-
lection OF the man. The only person,
therefore, who can really set at rest tne
question whether it is the right or the
wrong man which was indicted in Warwick
county is Mr.. Cyrus w. Cole, OF Stony
Creek, Sussex county, Va, rs both men
worked for him.

The connecticut Tobacco Crop.
Hartford Comm Coursn


Reports from tobacco-growers all through
this region are that the crop is in unusually
fine condition, and Hartford dealer esti-
mates that, while the acreage is no greater
than last year, the yield in the State will be
from ne.quarter to one-ihird larger. Cut
ting Is In progress already on some East
Hartford farms and In several other places
In the valley. This is earlier than usual,
and IL was the same last year, the plants
having reached the proper stage, owing TO
the favorable weather, somewhat earlier
than In previous years. No purchases oil
growing crops are recorded, and IL Is pre-
dicted that the coming crop will not be inn
nlediately placed on the market. The 1878
crop, to very large extent, has passed oul
OF the hands OF the growers into those Of
the dealers, and, remaining there, the latter
are In no haste TO carry any heavier stocks
than they now have.
