You are selecting from some old stock which

first choice or none, therefore we keep a full

afford to put prices that cannot be beaten if
they do get the old style at half price. The
demand for the class of goods we carry is
increasing daily. Our numerous spring

OtheE VIII DC AAA 1<AAAS'
The committee in charge ofthe Easter Mon
day Demonstration have received from the
Fifth MARYLAND Regiment an acceptance of
the invitation extended to them last week
through Messrs. C. II. Vanderford and l.: l..
Billingslea to take part in the parade. The
regiment will turn out about 300 strong, and
will be accompanied by their splendid band
and drum corps, numbering together 30 pieces.
Acceptances have also been received from
the Frederick Rihemen, who will muster 40
men; the Linganore Guards, 80 strong, and
the Towson Guards, 40 strong. The Williams
port Light Infantry, Hagerstown Light In

invited, and no doubt will accept. The Fred
erick, Hagerstown, Williamsport and Linga-
more companies constitute the First Battalion,
and will be commanded by Col. ID. Kyd Dou-
glas, accompanied by his staff.
The trades display and the burlesque feat
ures of the parade will be larger than those of
last Easter, and the affair will be the largest
and most imposing ever witnessed in Mary
land, outside of Baltimore.
AS before stated the carnival associations
of Hagerstown and Frederick will take part
in the parade, and bands of music and drum
corps will be present from Frederick, Ha-
gerstown, Chambersburg, Waynesboro', Han
over, Union Bridge, Westminster and from a
number of towns in Carroll.
The committee are getting up other attrac
tons, but not desiring to make any promise
that will not be fulfilled, will defer stating
them until they have fully completed arrange
ments.
As will be seen by advertisement the West
ern Maryland railroad has made round trip
tickets very low, and the Baltimore Han
over road will make arrangements to bring
eXcursiOnists here in time to witness the pa
rade and other attractions and take them home
by special train in the evening.
On Thursday night the committee selected
the following officers for the parade-Col.
