more satisfactory arrangement for the
occasion. Those who have already
purchased tickets can hold them, as
they are good for the 9th.

Walkers China Hall,

This palatial establishment is stu
ated at 6l7 Elm street directly in front
of Poydras street. Its name indicates
the character Of goods there to be
found. Beyond question it is the
finest, handsomest and largest crock
cry house in Dallas and the equal
of any south of st. Louis. The dis
play of china ware is superb. In
deed the whole store looks
like fairy grotto with its
beautiful china ware in brilliant colors
and unique designs; its hanging arti-
fetal flowers in ornamental baskets
and great vases of the same; its mag
nificent glassware rejecting the light
in the Iris hues of the rainbow; its
splendid lamps and chandeliers and its
unsurpassed cutlery and charming ar
ticles of vertu for ornamentation.
Dinner sets, breakfast sets and tea sets
in all designs imaginable and there is
royal china there, as cheaper wares
too. Toilet and chamber sets abound
and indeed all you may want, you can
get there, at bed rock prices.
Messrs. Walker and Allen Marshall are
veterans in the business, and two clev-
erer, moro courteous gentlemen you
cannot find anywhere. BE sure and
visit this elegant establishment while
in the city. The store will be illumi-
mated every night and the public gen.
orally, especially strangers in the city,
are cordially invited to call and see
the beauties that will be displayed.

Who first suggested the use Of phos-
phoIous as an inhsmmable agent in
matches ia not certainly known. Many
people in England have claimed the
credit, from an spOthecary in the Strand
~ to a member Of the present House
Of Commons. Il IL said that Derosne,
who is known in the history of techni-
cal chemistry FOX his application Of the
decolorlzipg properties Of animal char
coal to sugar.Tehning, made friction
match with a PHOSPHORUS tip so far
back as lSlG. In Germany the inyen-
ton Of the PHOSPHORUS match is nttri-
bu,ed TO Kammerer, but the name
which is most prominent in connection
with the early stages Of the manufac-
ture is that Of Preshel, Of Vienna, who
in 1883 had large factory in operation
for the making Of lucifers; indeed, II
was mainly through his e1ertions and
/ those Of Moldenhauer, Of Darmstadt,
that Austria and South Germany be-
came for many years the chief sources
Of the supply of matches. To-day
Sweden is rapidly coming to the front
among the matchmaking countries Of
the world. Altogether, in Scandinavia
there are some fourscore factories, the
famous one at Jonkoping, with its
G,CO0 work?eople, being probably the
largest in the world IN lSs0 sweden
exported some $4,000, 600, 600 matches
TO all parts Of the world. In Germany
and Austria the number Of msnufac,o-
res is much larger. Altogether there
are upward u $50 factories in the two
countries, but the total output OF each
country is probably less than thst Of
Sweden, sthoUgtsenormous quantities
are sent from Central Europe into Rus
sis, Turkey, and various other parts Of
Western Asia. In France the manu-

Verdi's inclination for music mani
tested itself at very early age. An
old spinet is still preserved in his villa
at Sent Agata, on which he ptacticed
when child. The instrument bears a
curious inscription, which shows the
date at which the great composer prac-
tlced on it. The translation Of the in
scription, which is in Italian, is worth
giving here: BY me, Sieiano Caya-
lett. the hammers were restored and
covered with leather for this instru-
ment, 10 which | have fitted a pedal
