the whole city turned out to see them.
They mustered eight companies or
337 men, exclusive of the staff, and

form, Company G, of Elizabeth, at
tracting especial attention by their
fine marching and alignment. The

strong and compared favorably with
other commands. On the whole,
New Jersey had every reason to be
proud Of its guardsmen in the BIZ

chant in Philadelphia, died in Bur-
lington on Friday. He was born in
Philadelphia in 1884, and spent the
greater portion Of his life in Philadel-

bank failure. He then retired to
the country, where he has since re.
sided. In 1882 he made application
to the City Council for permission to

For two years, perhaps, we
have had the richest, largest,
mostvaried andmost exhaus-
tive collection of dress-goods
in Philadelphia. Before that,
we may have had the largest,
and even the most exhaus-
tive, but perhaps not the
richest. The slowest trade
to come to a new merchant
is the trade of luxury. 1t is
the slowest to change from
one to another. But it does
change.

goods of all sorts are at

Silks of all sorts have
come; and never were silks
more acceptable. And these
words have a meaning here
beyond any they could have
elsewhere; because of the
greater varietyof wants that
look to US for supply. We
must have all llaccepted styles,
and all the approved quail
ties of those styles; and, as
to colors, can you think of
one that we can do without?

Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1882-08-25

A Washington dispatch announces
that advices have been received charg-
hing Irregularities in the accounts OF
James Crawford, Superintendent of the
Mint in this city, and that an investi-
cation has been ordered. This Is the
first intimation that anything was
wrong in Superintendent Crawford's
accounts. The worst enemies OF the
Mint have never charged dishonesty in
this direction. Serious allegations have
been made against under officers, and 1t
IL better that an investigation he made
at once, that the guilty may be de-
tected and punished and the innocent
exonerated. There has been enough
of rumors and mysterious insinuations,
which only an impartial investigation,
where all the facts can be brought to
light, will clear up.

The excited state Of public feeling IN

Of an outrage recorded by the Stockton
Tdef eadent
Some maliciousiy inclined person
threw a plum through the east window
of the office of the superintendent oi
Stockton and Copperopolis Railroad
yesterday afternoon.
The editor of the Stockton paper
seems to regard the person OF rail-
reader with an awe which only the
Car Of Russia would inspire, and In
his excitement leaves the public IN
doubt as to whether the Superintendent
was in or not, and does not state
whether the flying fruit knocked over
an inkstand or soiled the wall. In
either event the facts should be made
tublic at once. 81
