show much more you are getting for

then pretty nearly rs well rs you do
now. l will venture to say you couldn't
get a pair of trousers then that suited
YOU for less then $40 or $15; you get
the same thing now for S. to $40. and
you can get for s. trousers that would
have cost at least $40 then. The suit
you had to pay $40 to $50 for then costs
YOU $50 to-day. You can buy all the

Hypocrisy-House Doings.
WASHINGTON, CITY, May &-Findlay OF
Maryland, from the civil service com
mittee, submitted to the house Saturday d
report on the resolution offered by Taulbee,
of Kentucky directing the secretary of the
treasury to inform the house by
what authority substitute clerks were
permitted in his department. The
report says that there is no reason to ques-
tion the good faith of the statement of the
acting secretary that substitutes are allowed
in cases of absence or permanent employees
through illness, and accepting this as valid
reason, the committee asks to be discharged
from its further consideration.
In moving the adoption of the resolution
Taulbee characterized the civil service law
as piece Of Hypocrisy, conceived in sin
and brought forth in iniquity. 1t was
created, he said, by Mr.. Eaton, who had
made moro money out of it than any man,
but while it was a bad law, the
government was committed to it, and
it should be respected and lived

Planning a Home.

Whether the china closet shall have
door opening into the kitchen pantry
as well as into the dining-room will be
question for the housekeeper to decide,
and whether the library shall have a
fireplace of its own will be question of
cost. There is good place in the par
lor for a piano. The library bookcases
will fill the corners of the room; the
dining table will not be uncomfortably
crowded, If it.isn't longer than it ought
to be; and the kitchen rejoices in ''pot
closet" direct entrance to the cellar,
porch where the milkman may leave
his can, and a lobby whose double doors
make barricade between the cooking
range and the rest of the house. If this
little lobby has Il liberal ventilation in
to a flue beside chimney, and if the
range itself is properly contrived, there
will be little danger of cooking odors
where they are not wanted.-F c.

NEW YORK, May a-Don NJ Dickinson
said Saturday that he saw Senator Jones
constantly In Detroit: that he is perfectly
sane and in good health, and that all the
stories published about his persistent atten-
tions to Miss Palm are fabrications 1T is
a cruel injustice to bring her name before
the public as it has besn in connection with
the senator, he said.
When asked what is the matter with the
senator he said: "Now, you have me.
can answer everything but what keeps him
in Detroit In all my talks with him he
never refers to his private affairs and avoids
saying what his business IL there. He did go
so far one day as to deny me that he had

ACTION AGAINST THE X. OF /.

National and International Trade Unions
to Fight the knights.
PiTrsBURG, Pa. May 3-The following
call is published. 1t is said to be the begin
ming of fight against the Knights of Labor:
April 26, 18S6.-TO ALL WHoM IT MAY
CONCERN: We deem it highly important to
hold conferences at an early date of the
chief executive of each and every national
and international trade union in Amer
lea. 1t is suggested that the said
conference be an informal one and that it
be held in Philadelphia on May 18th. The
object is to devise means to protect an
organization from the righteousness of an
element who openly boasts that "Trade
Unionism must be destroyed" This ele-
ment urges our local unions to disband and
is doing incalculable mischief by arousing
antagonism and dissension in the labor
movement, under cover of the Knights of
Labor, and as far as we can learn, without
authority from that body, "rats," "scabs,"
and unfair employees, are backed by up this
element. Suspended and expelled members
of trades unions are welcomed into their
ranks, and these elements use the knights of
Labor as an inducement through which to
vent their spite against trades unions That
this has been the case can be amply demon
strated by the cigar makers and typograph-
ical international unions Other trade unions
have been more or less affected. These and
other subjects concerning the relations Of

Ex-Marshal Bazainc "of Mexico and

all. He has not run through with all
his wife's money. He lives in Madrid,
but Is not recognized in good society.
His personal appearance, says the Lon
don NcWS, has much altered, and he is
aged, so stout and bloated, so neglectful
of his attire and outward appearance,
that he is a wretcheI sight as lie shutlles
along the RecOlitas promenade or a side

people to fancy he is in worse circum-

ing Truth can never die, and no cause can
be lost while the fair women OF the land
smile upon it" AT Opelika Capt Newman,
introduced him, said: people of Opelika,
it is my privilege to introduce to you to-day
the first and last president of our great
Confederacy." In Palmetto Davis said:
Ladies and Gentlemen: The last
time was here was on horse
back. l came to review the Confed-
crate army. Now I am here on foot,
but find you not less cordial than then. l
thank you" In La Grange he gave Mr..
Blaine thrust thus: Ladies and gentle
men The name of Ben Hill brings to me
memories deep and tender that lived in the
past of that truly great and greatly true
man who did not fail to repel the SANDER of
the miserable Yankee who did not hesitate
to lie for purpose. This place was once
the home of the great Georgian, and l love
it for him. love it also because it is the
home of Hugh HARRISON, who took me up
when first entered congress"

"If the spirit of liberty is not dead in the

Davis, who talks about liberty, represents
only human slavery the degradation Of
labor, the treason of secession and rebellion,
the horrors and infamies Of Libby and An

cious vicious, and damnable in American
history. To talk of him as an illustrious

No Political Significance-Governo For
aker and the c.. a. X.
CHICAGO, May 3-The Times Washing
ton City special has the following: The
masses for the repose of the soul Of the lost
cause now being celebrated at various
points in Alabama, and Georgia, more par
ticularly at Montgomery, where the briefly
enduring deceased was chriStened, are at
tracing some attention among Democratic
congressman, but are not occasioning much
remark. Democratic congressman who want
to be reelected next fall are little afraid
of the use the speeches of one jefferson
Davis and the plaudits of the multitude at
his sepulchral deliverances, may be put to
next summer. For the most part there is
disposition to treat the matter es of no
political significance, and the demonstration
over that interesting survival of bygone
era, who usually secludes himself in Beau
voir, as an outburst of sentiment over
thrilling bit Of the past, without any con-
nection or relevancy with the spresent
and the future; but it is so we'll
known how effectively the Republicans
can use the language of Mr.. Davis and
the applause of the people, and how sensitive
a large proportion of the people OF the north
are to any semblance of vitality on the part
of the Confederate cadaYer that some of the
Democrats are a little worried over the pos
sibIe effects of this raid on the political
graveyard, both in the elections next fall
and those OF 1883. \ southern congressman,
who is also Confederate brigadler, said:
"Of course, | don't want to be quoted in
anything I say about this business. Any
criticism from me might seem to be il
bad taste l am rather sorry about this little
demonstration in Alabama. 1t does not
really mean anything, but know it will be
used all over the north to give color to the
charge that we hate the Union and would
secede again if we had a chance. Conse-
quently 1 would not had have this celebra-
ton if could have prevented it. =
OF course we have warm feelings for the
men who led US in the war of twenty-f
years ago, but the people of the south have
no wish to undo the results of the war, and
we are as loyal to the general government
as the people of the north are. A great in
justice will be done the people of the south,
and Democrats all over the country, if
the perfectly unimportant observation of
Mr. Davis and the wholly innocent express
sions of affection for him by the people in
our section are construed to indicate that
the political ideas OF the south to-day are
what they were quarter OF a century ago"
IA northern Democrat, who was an officer
in the federal army, said: Il think the
people of the north understand that what
Mr. Davis says is mere derived, without
political value or significance. l have
hardly given this Montgomery demonstsa-
ton a moments thought, and I do not ap-
prehend that it will have any considerable
bearing on the congressional elections
