Chew laid before it letter from Secretary
Wise, OF the manufacturers association, in
which he said that the only proposition
he was authorised to make was embodied
in the resolution adopted by the Western
Nail Association at their meeting in Pitts
burgh on Wednesday.
The Board authorized Mr., Ohewto re-
spond, declining any conference until the
manufacturer position ia modified,
This Is, OF course, II tinality until the
next monthly meeting oil the manuIac'
turers association.
RRrUDIATE THE VIEWS.
Numerous nailsrs, including officials OF
the unionr yesterday rePGdiated the ex'
preston OF mailer, quoted IN this paper
yesterday morning, that the workmen
would bs willing to waive their objection
to the feeders and nailers, now employed
in the nail factories, Some OF the nailera
angrily denounced the author OF this state.
msnt, and all declared that he expressed
only his individual views, views which, 80
far as could be learned, were not endorsed
by any other mailer in or around the city,
They all say that ia one point they would

small Feet of southern Women.

From the Macon (Ga.) Telegraph.
A lady of medium height may have a
finely shaped foot, such as common rumor
gives to Mrs. Cleveland, but in the South a
No. 81 slipper is not usually designated as
dainty. Probably "a is as large as the
term will stand. People who frequent
Southern bathrooms and summer resorts
comment upon the fact that extremely
small feet-feet encased in slippers running
from No. 1 to 2l15-are largely in the major
ity. Not many years since this subject was
discussed in ballroom in Macon, and eX
pertS were able to discover out of eighteen
pairs present and twinkling in the mazes of
the dance but three numbers larger than
215, and in the assembly were damSelS who
would have tipped the beam at 135.
This preponderance of small feet in the
South among ladies of high social standing
has been accounted for on many theories,
the most natural one. we think, being the
explanation that these ladies do not use
their feet with the freedom and cOnstancy
that may be observed in other sections.
They are not walkers, in the first place. 1t
is rare thing to find in Southern cities
ladies of the class described who average
two miles walking per day the year round.
Climate and roadways, as we'll as custom,
are against pedestrian exercise; the feet
are small because they are not fully de-
vel0ped by use. Of course we speak in a
general sense. because there are families in
which small feet are clearly an Inheritance
and continue small despite exercise con-

a success Every way.

The grand opening of the PalaiS Royal,
corner of Third and Minnesota streets. yes
terday, was a success in every sense Of the
term. The whole day long a dense crowd
thronged the floors. and all comments from
visitors were creditable to the energetic
proprietor, Mr.. NJ. Levy. One might in
spect the finest institutions of the Eastern
cities and it would be difficult to find one
superior to the Palas Royal. MIR. Levy
has shown a happy faculty in the selection
of his stock. which is fine. complete and
artistic Three floors, 22X100 feet, are
occupied, every inch of space being
utilized for the display of his mammoth
stock. Immediately upon entering, the
visitor stops to witness the performance of
the great automatic bird charmer,
which is a most wonderful piece of
mechanism, consisting of a four-f0ot
figure, dressed in court attire, elegant i'll
velvet. plumes and trimmings, holding in
one hand a flute, while perched upon the
forefnger of the other is handsome bird,
so natural, both in shape and color, as well
as motion, that many were lOath to believe
that the little S0ngSter was not flesh and
blood The stock Of silverware shown is
the genuine Meriden Britannia, and consists
OF knives, forks, spoons. casters, etc. An
enumeration of each department is I'M
necessary, as all are cordially invited to
call and inspect for themselves. I'm
doubtedly Mr.. Levy has succeeded in
grouping together as fine a selected stock of
goods as can be seen anywhere. and prices
are reasonable, indeed. 1t is a firSt-clasS
department store, everything being in
stock from articles at cents to those OF 500.
