There is no business that is 80 attractive

furnishing goods" The numberless varieties Of
every kind OF ladies' wear, the trimmings that arc
employed, the many hued hosiery, and the rain

toilettes that the dear feminine creatures

THAT CROWDED ABOUT EVERY COUNTER,
he began to realize that the Palais Royal was q

attention was particularly drawn to corner on
the Twelfth street side, where the crowd seemed
TO be densest, and where there seemed to be the
most eager purchasers. Upon inquiry he learned
that this was

"You seem to be doing driving business in the

the proprietor of the palais Royal.
"Yes" replied he; "I know have as large q

THE OPERA.
Miss Abbotcs BoncGt-"The Chimes" To.
Day-Grcat BiII Tonight.

The popularity Of Miss Emma Abbott
was fully evidenced last night in the large audi
ence that assembled at the National Theatre on
the occasion Of her benefit. Every available
scat was occupied and many were standing up.
The opera Faust" which was the musical attrac-
tion, has been sung by the Abbott Company many
times in this city, and Miss Abbotts Marguerite is
familiar TO all our opera-goers In her impcr-
sonation last night she showed the same impas-
stoned earncstncss that has characterized her
former representations of Gocthc's heroine,
and her efforts were rewarded by liberal applause.
There wNs some disappointment when II was
known that Mr.. Comfy was unable to appear as
A,phisiOphOies, but Mr.. olmi, who assumed the
part both sang and acted with great credit To-
day ut the matinee THE Chimes OF Normady"
will be given, This opera has always been ox-
ccedingly popular in this city, and n crowded
house may be predicted. At night bill Of ex-
trnordinnry excellence will be presented, which
will embrace the entire strength of the company.
The new opera, "Two Cavaliers" which was so
successful on Wednesday night, will be given en-
tire and In addition the tower scene from al
Troyatore, introducing Rosewald, Fabrini, and
Mnurel, and the celebrated mad scene from Lucia
di Lammcrmoor," with Miss Abbott as Lucia.

In.u,.nnce Dividend.

1t speaks well for the Mutual Protection
Fire Insurance Company of the District and Its
management that the trustees are able again to
return to the Insurers, in the shape OF dividend,
good part OF the premium paid. The holders
of all policies in force for one year, ending 2sth
inst. will on that date receive twenty per
cent of the yearly premium paid, either In cash
or applied on next years premium. The company
Is purely mutual and cooperative in It's charnc-
ter and the cost OF insurance In II is reduced to n
very low figure. New policies taken out before
the 2sth inst. will share in any dividend that may
be declared at the close of the next year, and In
surers would do well to avail themselves ofthe
opportunity. The office of the company is at No.

It has been decided by the manage

track was being narrowed late yesterday and up
to ten o'clock last night, and the horse
men think II will be in better condition
than It ever has been. A match will take place
over the track this afternoon between the colt Bob
Riddle and the illey Bride Cake. Pools were sold
at the National Hotel last night with Riddle the
favorite. Next weeks races will undoubtedly be
the greatest ever held here, and ms the interest
seems to be constantly growing there will no doubt
be very large attendance
