before he starts for the United States. He

LIVERPOOL, March 31.-Dennis Dorsey, a
man who when arrested here on Thursday
on his arrival from Corta, carried a box on
tanning internal machines and explosives,
and Patrick Flanagan, the Irish railway
porter who was arrested at st. Helens on
suspicion of being an accomplish of Dor
sey, were arraigned in court this morning,
when a charge that they had the explosives
in their possession with f%elonious intent
was preferred against them.
LIVERPOOL, March 31.-At the examina-
ton to-day of the men who we're arrested
for carrying dynamite, it was put in as ev-
idence, that the letter found upon Dennis
Dorsey, commencing him to the other con-
spirator, Patrick Flanagan, as a person
who might be entrusted with any post of
duty. At Flanagan's lodgings, a variety of
explosives were discovered, besides revol-
vers, false boards and other equipments
for dynamite, wear and disguise. The
most interesting evidence given during the
examination, was that of expert, scientific
witnesses, who testified that the ex-
plosive material in question was known
as 'lignine'' dynamite, an article
that could not by any possibility be con-
nected with commercial or business trans
actions, and which was not made for any
legitimate purpose. Flanagan interrupted
the proceedings with a pointed question

The famous 99-Cent Store, at No. z West
Third street and No. 81 Wabashaw, has, in adj
dition to an immense stock of toys and fancy
gf DDS, just been putting in the largest and finest
assortment of baby carriages ever seen in the
Northwest. This establishment does not con-
fine itself to single carriages, but encourages
the growth of the country by keeping a full line
of twin carriages. Instead of keeping the babies
in the house and paying doctors bills to keep
them sick, give them good, fresh air in a nice
carriage, which are sold at such a moderate
price by the Ninety-Nine Cent Store that no one
need be without them. One DOCTORS visit and a
prescription will cost as much as a baby car
rage.

Of course John Matheis, the great carpet
king, is doing an immense business. This

did not sell rapidly, for no building in the
city is capacious enough to acconmo-
date his stock at one time. Furthermore

cles, lastly selected, and hence they go to

Mr.. Matheis also employs only frst-class
workmen. He has just brought from the

workmanship but his coming adds four to
