The popular homespun diago-
nal suiting, ~ yards wide, all
wool, or rather camel's hair,
sI.oo per yard, 5 yards makes a
suit. The most nobby outfit a
lady can wear. They're selling
well in the cities and will doubt
less meet with favor everywhere.
f. B. HUMPHREYS & co.
The hardest thing to find in
dress goods this season is all
wool tricots. We have worked
all the prominent dealers in New
York and Philadelphia and then
could not get a complete line of
them. They are very saleable
and very sensible, as they make
a complete suit in themselves.
One entire case, all shades, just
opened, full yard wide, so cents.
8 yards makes a suit.
L. B. HUMPHREYS & co.
If you have any needs for
A CASHMERE you do
yourself injustice if you fail to
see our stock before buying.
We get direct from the agents of
the makers in France and pay
but a triAlng commission for the
service. Dealers who buy from
second or third hands are oblig-
ed to pay more than we can sell
for. We have elegant shades
and qualities, 10 inches wide.
for SO cents on up to 90 cents.
Get a sample of the cheapest
you can find in city or country
and give us a chance to match
it. We warrant you a full
saving of from SO cents to $3.50
in the purchase of a single suit.
T. B. & co.
We have just bought 1854
yards of LuPIN's CELEBRATED
ALI WooI 50 CT. French CASH.
NEREs, one yard wide, which, by
a curious turn of affairs, we can
sell at sly cts. These are the
regular 50 ct. quality, or rather
the same as sold last winter at
50 cts, but owing to some re-
vision Of the tariff, it strikes this
particular quality 50 forcibly
that they cant be placed in this
country under the new ruling
to sell for less than S cts. As
they would not sell at this price
the maker has stopped the max
ing Of the grade and weight
and ordered his agents in New
York to close out the stock on
hand, which amounted to some
1900 pieces. The history is too
long and tedious for rs to put in
print but this will partly explain
the getting Of them. As far as
we know only one merchant in
Philadelphia has them. and it IS
said he is selling from 1000 to
5000 yards per day at retail.
AT 37s cts- they're marvelously
cheap. s or 10 yards will make
a suit. All colors, but no
blacks.

 And to secure these points we believe an inspector should be appointed by the city to see that all plumbing is done in accordance with such regulations, said inspector to be competent and honorable man, well versed in the most approved methods of sanitary plumbing. And we further petition your honorable body to lay this matter before the proper authorities and to help along these i'm portant measures by your influence"
 The president, Prof. Brewer, was appoint ed committee to consider the matter of se- curing the desired legislation. He sad he would see the corporation counsel.
 John P Farrell, of I'll Meadow street, ap- piled for position sanitary inspector.
 Health Officer Lindsey called the attention of the Board to the house 130 Ward street, owned by Bernard Reilly of Cedar street. He said it occupied by Jews and negroes and was as filthy as any house in the city. He said MT. Reilly giving his tenants no facilities for keeping clean if they wanted to. lie thought that the place was breeder or disease.
 Dr. Winche11 moved that the owner of the building be interviewed on the subject.
 The Board discussed the question of no tic;ng anonymous communications, and the expression of opinion was that where the nuisance specifically located the clerk should, if possible, have the matter investl- gated.
 The house 5S Whalley avenue, Enos Foote owner, was noticed as being in bad sanitary condition. It was ordered to notify the owner. The house 109 Temple street was also complained of as needing attention. On motion of Dr. Winchell, the privy vault and cesspool was ordered to be abolished, in ac- cordance with city bylaw.
 It was ordered that sewer connections be made at 909 and 911 State street. The house 46 and 48 Pearl street was ordered put in san- itary condition.
 John Maloney's offal wagon was declared nuisance and order was passed that MT. Maloney carry on his business in closed casks.
 Health Officer Lindsey reported that there were ninet y-nine deathslast month. Twenty of these were from consumption, fifteen from zvmotic diseases and six from diphtheria. There were eighteen deaths in the Seventh ward. The health of the Tenth ward was better than in previous months. Twenty seven deaths only were of persons of Amer1- can parentage. The rate of mortality of the city for 1884 was 17.S per cent.

 MILWAUKEE, Jan. 6.-Between Rev. Fath- CT Gurski and the members of St. Stanislaus congregation there has been a bitter feeling for a long time The trouble arose when two church trustees were asked by him to resign Archbishop Heisse confirmed his decision and declared them not trustees. But they kept their office nevertheless and were supported by a large majority of the congregation. They allege that Rev MT. Gurski disiked them because they discov- cred mistakes in the church books. Rev. MT. Gurski claimed the books were right and the Archbishop denied an investigation. Last Sunday officers were elected and with them these two were reelected, but MT. Gurski declared their election void. Last night about three hundred men gathered in front of the priests house and demanded his appearance. Finally they stormed the house and broke the doors and windows. Finding him inside he was roughly handled, but final ly escaped by agreeing to acquiesce to their wishes.
