Brief Talks With Representative
Business Men About the Holt
day Trade.
L. B. Myers, of Myers s. Carpenter
To judge from appearances, the jewelry
trace in st. Paul this winter has been
somewhat lighter than last season,
which is easily accounted for. A larger
number of sales have been made, but
the individual purchases were smaller.
We cannot complain, however, for our
sales were very heavy, and our trade
was steady. But then we had stock
on hand at the beginning of the holiday
season, which in value, extent and
variety was surprise to most people
who saw it. And yet, with the great
quantity OF goods sent out in the past
three weeks. you can scarcely see any
thing lacking in completeness anywhere
in this establishment. In every depart
nlsnt there are still goods enough to
begin another holiday season with.
In diamonds? Well, it has been
about the same as with other goods:
few large ones were sold. but much
greater number Of small stones went
OUT You have seen our $4,000 neck
iaceS and $1,000 ear-drops? Art
goods, such as bronZes, clocks, ONYX
tables and piano lamps, went well, and
wea particularly well pleased with
the trade in this line. But just remem-
Der the stock we had! The sale of
watches was away ahead of that of any
season since l have been in the bust;
n mases A ssems sddyle Is BE- prices in a asi
mand. The exquisitely beautiful
designs in silverware, which can
now be bought at reasonable prices. at
tracted their full share of attention, and
vast quantity was sold. But the num-
Der OF gold-head canes and fine silk UNI
brellas that were sold would astonish
you! l cannot walk a block since
Christmas without meeting some man
proudly swinging one of them. 1t is
great pleasure, MIR. GLOBE, assure you,
to be made the medium of such happiness
as many Christmas presents create.
manufacturing department; we are
very proud OF 1t, and with good reason,
for it is as complete workshop as there
is in the West, and contains facilities
for the manufacture of any kind of jew
elry, and skilled wOrkmen to do it. We
are filling a great many special orders
just now, such as diamond setting. Is
there anything In that line we can do
for youp
Mr.. j. p. Barker, of the Reid Tailor
ing company. said: Generally speak
ing, this has been a very unsatisfactory
season among the merchant tailors. Our
trade, however, has been very good; in
fact, we are actually driven out of our
present quarters to the store at 3l5 jack
son street for want of room to accommo-
date our increasing trade. Three months
ago we opened in the Gilfillan block, and
very moderate prices for we'll made,
stylish garments have resulted in many
friends and customers. Therefore our
facilities are inadequate at our present
location. Mr.. E. NJ. Reid Is acknOwl-
edged TO be one Of the best cutters In

much to do with our success"
when do you occupy the new stOre?"
asked the reporter.
monday morning, and we will open
line of woOlens selected with special
care for exclusive tailoring trade. But
drop In and look us over, inquire our
prices, or, better still, order a suit for
yourself; that's good test Good day."
Ihaddeus Clancy, of the Hotel Ryan
Hat and Furnishing Store-Our trade
has been exceedingly good, before and
during the holidays. The tendency in
mems wear is toward finer qualities.
we have found ready sale for the most
expensive underwear made.
The bewildering array of tOboggans,
snowshoes and other winter sport goods
at Kennedy Bros. offered a subject of
interest, and the reporter dropped in.
I'VE have the tobOggan and snOwshOe
trade, and it shows up for brisk bust
ness in the near future. Our stock is
much larger than ever before, which
shows that we have confidence in the
January trade. Yes, business has been
unusually good this Winrer, all round.
We are well satisfied and only hope for
a continuance of the liberal patronage
that we have enjoyed so far"
Mr.. Hooker, of Third street, says his
holiday business in photography has
been excellent. Moderate prices and
hlgh-clasS work are what the people
want.
