EaDQUAETERSn FOR SILKS.

Headquarters" FOR SILKS.
While y,o dp not wish to frighten our custom
ris into huyimg NOW wo think it our duty to ap-
prise tbc: yf The fact that the prevailing opinion
among uf,cturcrs is that since the recent ad-
vance OF 20 cent. silk material in Lyons
thc centre uf the foreign silk market) SILKS
HAVE TOUCHED THE LOWEST POSSIBLE
POINT, and must necessarily go upwards. Silk
fabrics arc lower row than they have been for tho
last quarter century.
Probably you would rather take chances with
the markct than buy now. We arc satisfied we
shall have to pay more next time WE buy. We
give you all the advantages of our present stoc
ut the old prices.

THE
Most Successful Season
WE HAVE EVER HAD,
While others grumble and COM
plain. Our Cloaks have been the
talk of the town this season. None
can compare with our prices and
assortment. We have sold an i'm
mense quantity andare still getting
them in every day. Having pur-
chased early in the season, before
the advance and before the great
demand for those special styles had
set in, we are enabled to offer
Cloaks this season at nearly one
half the prices Of last year. We
have now over 1900 garments of
all styles and prices in our show
room No one who will give us
call can 60 away without being
suited in styles and prices, and we
"hold the fort" on them.

THE BONAPARTEs.


Eugene stops Her Pension to Prince
Victor on Account of His RiOtous
Living.
LONDON, June 13.-From Paris it is
learned that the Bonapartist manifesto
recently issued by the supporters Of
Prince Victor Napoleon has fallen fiat in
the provinces, where it excites no atten-
ton at all.
Prince Jerome Bonaparte fPlon-Plon)
Is ailing with diabetes, and his doctors
urge him to abstain from all political eX-
element. 1t is said he is very DESTROYS
of securing reconciliation with his son,
Prince Victor.
Eugene has stopped the annual pen
sion OF p, 600 francs which had been set
tied on Victor. The reason was plainly
stated to be the riotous and vicious char
acter of the life the young man was lead
ing. Victor, however, has strong friends
A syndicate Of these, when they learned
OF his loss, at once organized aud settled
upon him new pension OF
$4,000 francs per annum. This
syndicate is headed by Due de Padua,
and a condition has been imposed upon
Prince Victor to the effect that be must
live prudently and virtuOusly. Victor,
being now practically independent, is
quite bold. He refuses to be recOnciled
10 his father unless Plon-Plon shall bind
himself 10 repay to NictOr's friends all
onsys they have thus far advanced to
him.
The ex- Empress ana the Princess Clot-
hide aud Mathilde are, it IS reported. en-
gagged in a conspiracy to supplant Victor
as pretender 70 the Bonapartist success
SION by his brother Prince Louis. The
latter, however, refuses, it is said, 10 be a
party TO this conspiracy.

BLAINE AND LOGAN.
The Relations Between These Gentle
men not so Pleasant as Formerly.

! The Relations Between These Gentle
men not so Pleasant as Formerly.
WASHINGTON, June 13.-The sudden
ness Of Gen. Logan's departure for New
York has given rise to much speculation
in Republican circles, and some are dis
posed 10 give his movements a signiti-
canoe In connection with New York State
politlcs. To what extent this may be
true may be discovered hereafter, but the
ostensibe reason was private business,
and desire to call upon Gen. Grant be-
fore he leaves for the mountains. Gen.
Logan expects to spend the entire sum-
mer in Washington. He occupies a
beautiful house on Iowa circle, and will
devote his time TO such work connected
with his Senatorial Office as was hastily
dropped when he started for Springfield
early in the winter.
1t is matter OF remark here that Mr..
Blaine has not yet called upon Gen.
Logan. Considering their relations in the
late campaign and the fact that MIR. Blaine
Is simply private citizen, it would be
the duty or that gentleman to call if he
intended to do So The comments OF Gen.
Logsn's intimate friends seem to indicate
that the entente cOrdlale between those
might be. There were many points In the
management Of the campaign which did
not meet the approval OF Gen. Logan
and his friends SO far as the West was
concerned, and the poor showing in that
section was attributed to this Interference.
1t was originally agreed that LOgan's
friends should have charge OF matters in
the West, while Blaine's friends would
look after affairs in the East. The West
ern men, however, claim that they were
never given fair show, as the meagre
results in Illinois and elsewhere demon
strated.
The talk about Gen. LOgan's candidacy
in looS, while rather early for such mat
tiers, is predicated on the suppCsitlOn that
Mr.. Blaine will be out of the field as a
candidate, no matter what he might be as
factor in shaping the course ofthe party,
and that Logan will be able to carry the
Irish as we'll as the soldier vote.

/ Blaino ana the New York Campaign
Some Opinions Expressed by Roscoe
C0nklinE.
WASHINGTON, June 13.-Nr. Blaine
will go to Augusta with his family this
week. 1t Is understood that he viii tarry
day or two III New York 10 confer with
his friends about the campaign. William
Walter Phelps has been here, and takes
a very hopeful view Of New York politics
on the side of the Republicans. He says
that the old-time Democratic leaders are
not satisfied with the manner In which the
patronage of the State ia being dispensed,
and that in a quiet way the disafected
Democrats will express their discomfort
by staying away from the polls.
II is said by Mr. Blaine's friends that
they viii not favor the nomination Of eX-
Gov. Cornell, as he went over 70 Morton
rs against kysrts, who was their caudi-
date. The Eyarts men, while anxious to
retain the support OF the Blaine men, are
not willing 10 cOncede that Mr.. Evarts'
election WAS a Blame triumph, bur rather
a triumph Of the people over the Politi-
clans and what was left OF the old stall
wart machine.
The Republicans here denounce any
attempt on the part OF Mr.. Blaine or his
friends to reopen the old campaign
wounds. The announcement that hr.
Blaine's friends had made up their minds
20 try their hands at defeating Senator
Edmunds for reelection, simply because
be was lukewarm in the campaign, has
resulted IN exhibitions Of noticeable acri-
mony. Even the venerable Senator Nor
rill said at the time that such an effort
on SUCH grounds would be resented: that
the Blaine men would 20 to the wall, and
that it NIGHT sadly cripple the party.
