The OrHER Day

One OF the leaders Of society here. weknown club
man. gentleman of taste and fashion, who has for
years ordered his clothes highest priced New
York taors. ordered from cur Tailoring Department

buying from would have charged him S75. few
days after delivering the he in pay for it,
and candidy stated. This suit equals in style and
material any suit 1 ever had made in New York.
while the cost is fully twenty dollars less had no
idea you made such high class of goods" Had we
been an Exclusive house he would no doubt have
known ofus But there is denying that small
proportion Of people prefer buy say they buy of
that kind of concern The very idea Of having clothes
made In house has clothing to sell is distaseful
They prefer paying Eve dollars for hat with swell
hs''srs name in to buying without it for three
any. Then again. some want q dollar tie. but they
want to pay dollar and half for it in some "Exclu-
sivs" house The following incident. which we copy
from the sunday Herald" Of October 10th. shows
how some to the fascination of q name surrender
Judgment hoodwinked" Now we here are not an
Exclusive" house in any land that is we
keep exclusively articles merchandise that are full
value for every dollar you expend with U.S. We have
what there Is worth having fine as there is made
and as cheap will render service We cater for the
people. The banker and the mechanics dollar are
alike to us one welcome the other. The few.
those that want the Exclusive store are beginning
to realize that the quotation of an unnecessarily high
price for article is excepted by people whose opin.
ions having as an evidence If their extrava
gance. or. what is more likely. their folly Now we
in a position to make suits to order as low as
eighteen dollars. and make money on them. All we
have to do Is to have samples of the same class of
goods that sell suits twelve dollars for ready
made, but when the garments are finished they are
worth twelve and not eighteen dollars and that not
what we call giving full value If you intend to buy
suit to cost from SIS $50 buy ready made if you
can afford to nay $50. have it made. Ours at $50

The idea of a candidate for office delivering a
lecture on Moses in order to raise funds to
carry on his canvass has something funny about
10 at first sight. but ii is not SO bad when calmly
considered. Ii Mr.. Henry George has discov-
cred anything new to say about the ancient
Hebrew lawgiver, there is no reason why lie
should not receive money for saying it; and, if
he believes that he would make q better mayor
of New York city than some other persons who
aspire to the office, he does quite right in apply
ing the proceeds of his research to the cost of
slecting himself. IL the way in which he spends
the money is as legitimate as the way in which
he earns ii, nobody can cavil at his enterprise;
and the man who gave great code TO a great
people is certainly worthy subject of discus
sion for an orator whose mission in life is the
reforming OF the laws of all nations.
II IL be true that his devotion to civil service
reform has cost Representative Albert b. Willis
his seat in the House, the fact reflects no credit
upon the voters of the fifth Kentucky district
There are few members of Congress who have
made a record more noteworthy than Mr.
Willis's for good and intelligent work, and
none who have surpassed him in general worth.
His loss will be felt very keenly by Speaker
Carlisle, who has found him most efficient
friend and counsellor.

In the interviews published in the New York
newspapers, Minister Cox does not repre-
sent himself as particularly enchanted with his
life at Constantiuople. He seems to have en-
joyed it as a passing diversion rather than as
the beginning of a permanent change in his
mode of existence. He is evidently fiattered
by the proposal OF some OF his old political
friends that he shall come back aud allow them
TO send him to Congress again; and it would
not be at all surprising If he consented TO the
plan.

As will be more fully learned from the de-
tails published elsewhere. Mr.. George William
Adams, President of The EVENING STAR
Newspaper Company, died at his residence
ON X street, in this city, at 2 O'Clock yes
terday morning.
The state OF Mr.. Adams health since his
much-loved daughter. Edith, was taken ia
tally I'll last spring, and its more critical
condition since her death In July last, had
messurably prepared his family and friends
for this sad event, but the shock caused by
the result is none the less severe, nor will
the loss sustained In consequence by his
family, his associates and friends, and by the
city OF his residence, be any less sensibly felt
on that account. No higher praise need be
spoken OF any man than to say that he was
most liked by those who knew him best; and
this was conspicuously true of Mr.. Adams.
Modest in nature, to- an extreme degree, quiet
and reticent in demeanor, he did not seek
wide acquaintanceship, but that circle new
ertheless grew large; and those who became
sufficiently intimate with him to form a just
estimate, knew him to be possessed OF more
than average intellectual powers, genial in
temper, strong in friendship, wise in counsel,
steady OF purpose, charitable I'm Judgment,
generous In impulse, sagacious, prompt and
scrupulously honest in business affairs, and
honorable and faithful In all the relations of
life.
Intimately connected with him in the man.
agement of The STAR for nearly twenty
years, his surviving associates realize that
they have sustained in the death of Mr..
Adams loss second only to- that which has
befallen his doubly bereaved family. Time
may somewhat blunt the sense of deprivation
and partially close the gap thus created, but
no lapse of years can wholly I'LL his place in
the hearts OF those to whom he was attached,
nor lessen the esteem in which his memory
Is held.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1886-10-11

For the information of those who may
have an interest in the matter, it may be
stated here that the connection of Mr.. Adams
with THE EVENING STAR was one-third
shareholder in and President of the incOr-
porated joint stock company which owns
and publishes IL. His death will therefore
involve no material change in ownership, nor
in the management OF the paper, save the
filling in due season OF the official vacancy
thus caused, nor will there be any change in
Its policy or character.
