woke up, finally, and though he may
live, it's safe bet he won't catch
bombs again on the 4th.

Cormier believes in always keeping it
fully up to the standard, and, when
necessary, making such improvements
as the comfort Of guests may require.
The decorations of the New York
Store on the Fourth of July were the
object of much admiration. The whole
front was tastefully festooned with
flags, and over each entrance large
shields elegantly wrought in flowers
formed beautiful embellishments to the
elegant display of choice fabrics in
summer wear. Messrs. Toklas 4 Kauf-
man always lead in such matters.

time that he was in great danger, but
his condition is much improved and

Last evening as Bud Bartlett and a
friend were strolling on Long Wharf,

caught hold Of a pile and held there
until his friend procured a boat and
went to his relief.
