WHAT THEY CONSIST OF AND WHERE THEY
CAN BE SECURED.

WHAT THEY CONSIST OF AND WHERE THEY
CAN BE SECURED.
An event which will be of interest to
the ladies particularly and all lovers OF
the beautiful in store goods in general
is the announcement that o. Torrison has
this week opened his spring stock of
merchandise and has his beautiful build
ing filled with immense quantities of
those articles which delight the eyes of
purchasers. Among the thousand and
one articles that go to make up stock,
the most prominent is dress goods; and
of these there is such variety that to
even mention the names would fill col
umn. prominent feature however is an
assortment of Sattines and silks which
are here found in all qualities and shades
and in such abundance that the tastes of
all can be suited. After dress goods
come cloaks, aud of these are enough to
meet the wants of any one. The Pilot
reporter was informed that the latest and
most correct thing in the cloak line this
spring is what is known as a silk brocade,
and is to be found only IN this city at
Torrlson's. They range in price from
twelve to sixteen dollars and should be
seen by every one of our lady readers
who aspires to become posted in the sub
Isct of outside wraps. Summer shawls
constitute another prominent feature OF
this elegant stock. 1t incl udes wooden,
Persian and embroidered cashmere scarf
shawls-the latter something new and
novel in that line. They are shown in
all colors and every degree of fneness.
A lot of ladies' Jackets, very desirable
goods, are offered for this week only at
hair price, a statement which should
engage the attention of every lady who
has an eye to securing the best article in
that line for very lite money. Another
''drive" that holds good for the present
week only is lot of dress goods which
are to be disposed of also at half price.
One of the features of this stock of goods
and one which, from the display made in
the show windows recently has attracted
much attention, is line of carpets which
for elegance and variety of style has
never been surpassed in the city, and
while on this subject it might be we'll to
give publicity to the fact that carpets are
going up i'll price and that present in
dications point to a decided advance
before fall. Readers of The Pilot never
had choicer stock of these goods offered
to them and lower prices than are now
prevailing will probably never be quoted
to them. The same applies to rugs,
mats, ETC., full assortment of which can
be found here. Lace curtains, lambre-
| quins and every variety of window dress
| ings are provided in large quantities and
| at prices which cannot fail to please the
| closest buyer. Like every other depart
ment of this store, it is complete. For
gentlemen's wear fine line of suitings
has been purchased. BY an arrangement
with one of the best of our local tailors
those in want of clothing can make a
| selection from very large stock of
cloths and have it made up in the latest
style at small advance over the cost of
ready made goods. Ample provision has
| been made, however, for those who pre-
fer ready made clothing and very choice
stock has been secured. Hats and caps,
boots and shoes and complete assert
ment of furnishing goods generally are
carried, making the stock as whole, for
the needs of men, women and children,
one of the finest ever shown here and one
| which should attract that degree of in.
spection which its merits deserve. None
of our dealers have labored harder to
| meet the wants of their customers than
has Mr.. Torrison and the good taste and
| judgment exercised in the purchase of this
stock should insure liberal patronage.
