The tendency of a great
many Americans of the
present day seems to be to
accept blindly and without
questioning any style or Gus
tom that is foreign" This
is particularly noticeable in
Gentlemen's Wear.
While wo acknowledge
tho correctness AMI beauty
OF the majority of the im-
ported styles for gentlemen,
we are averse to accepting
ANY style merely because
it is foreign. There are as
many badly dressed people
in England as in America,
and the man who dresses in
exaggeration of the fashion
is as much the Laughing
stock" OF society there as
here.
In Gentlemen's Wear we
have every desirable novel
ty, both foreign and do
mestic, while none of the
staples are forgotten. Goods
that are stylish without be-
ing exaggerated, comforta-
BILE yet elegant; such goods
as we like to handle and as

federal detectives during the late war,
writes rs follows to the Washington Ga
zptte:

Surratt President Johnson sent for me and
requested me 10 give my version OF Mrs.
Surratt's connection with the assassination
of President Lincoln. | did SO, and | be-
Iieye he was thoroughly convinced OF the
innocence of Mrs. Surratt He assured me
he sincerely regretted that he had not given
Mrs. Surratt the henetit of executive Glenn

of what be termed the Infamous conduct
of Stanton" in keeping these facts from him.

Mr. Stanton under all circumstances, and
while regretted the course adopted by the
Secretary of War towards Mrs. Surratt, /

the subject of the assassination was never
afterwards discussed betw.ca him and my
self The great war secretary Of the UnioM
was no longer in power. He was plain
citizen of our republic, broken in health and
tottering between lite and death.
The republican leaders had, after much
pleading. induced President Graut to name
MIR. Stanton for Judge of the Supreme
Court. The Senate promptly confirmed the
nomination, but Grant, for some reason best
known to himself, did not put his signature
to the commission. or if he did sign the com
mission he did not forward it to Mr. Stanton.

buked me for not making greater effort
to save the woman that was hanged. he
said he would have trusted his life in my
keeping; that | would have saved him the
tormeuts oil hell had beeu more persistent in
my efforts. | reminded him OF my call on
President johnson to plead for mercy for
Mrs. Surratt, and that was met by l.. e. BAKER
at the entrance OF the Presidents House, and
Baker produced and order over his (Stauntonsl

"Too true" he responded land the Surratt

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Mar. "a special from
Little Rock, Ark, says: Reports from the
Indian Territory are TO the effect that the
mortality among live stock during the past
winter has heen very great. Among the
heaviest loses is on the Turner range, in the
Creek Nation. Mr. Turner has been hold
ing herd Of 900 cattle and places his loss
from $500 to 1000 The herd was princi.
pally young Texas ilgrims. They were
driven on the range late in the season and
in poor condition. On the Mcssengal range,
in the Cherokee Nation. the loss has also
been heavy and is estimated at 60 per cent
Almost without exception the mortality is
confined TO through stock. On the Chero-
kee strip the loss has been considerable, but
on the majority Of the ranges it is reported
they are not so serious as was expected and
the loss will not be go heavy by 40 per cent
Two year old native range steers v eathele ed
through in remarkably fine condition. The
general complaint is with the pilgrim Zones"
aud "twos," and old cows.
