pine sawdu,t and waste steam at no
cost, as the salt wells aud saw mills
are worked by the same companies
During 1856 there were q number OF
new salt blocks erected, and q new
process Of manufacture reduced. In
this process coal was used for fuel, and
experiment proved that the cost Of the
coal, which was the chief expense in
manufacture, was only l3k cents per
barrel. The average selling price Of
regular grained salt in 1856, was 66.
per barrel Of $50 pounds; or S4.65 per
ton. This included the salt made by
the old, expensive processes. BY the
sew process the quality Of salt re-
quir.d by the reduction works could
bs TUNED out at such low cost that
It could be sold protitsbly at So per
ton, or even less. The Northern Pa.
cific has carried wheat from Walla
Wnlls to Minneapolis, . distance OF
l, T22 miles, for IS per ton. On the
same basis 1t could haul salt from Du.
luth to Butte through the PipestoDs
Pass for IS per lon, and q rate Of &
per ton could undoubtedly be made TO
cover the short distance, by rail or
water, from Msinstee to Duluth.
This would land salt at Butte at $lO
per ton, and the Northern Pacific could
well afford to cut the tariff ON salt very
fine, In view OF the enormous increa,e
Of freights going east that would re.
suit from the reduced cost OF salt al
this point. But before long IL will be
possible to obtain salt much nearer al
hand. At Jenny's Stockade, Dakota,
there IL an abundance Of brine from
which salt has been made to furnish
the towns in the Bla k Hills. Before
long that place will becJnnected with
Butte by about 700 miles of rail, and
tue salt question will be somewhat
simplified. The United States Gelog-
zeal Survey reports numerous salt
springs in the Yellowstone valley
which no effort has been made TO uti
Iize. There is q good opening fol
some enterprising capitalists to locat,
the Yellowstone salt springs, whict
will range from l75 to 300 miles I,

The Season at Piney Point.

The season at Piney Point was opened
on Saturday last, many prominent people
from Washington and elsewhere being
present, and the outlook for the summer
is excellent. This is the well-known river
resort of which Messrs. Wash. B. Will
liams & Sons are the enterprising pro-
prietors. The hotel is model of neat
ness and convenience, complete in all its
appointments, It's cuisine unsurpassed
and its beds the perfection of GOODNESS
and comfort. The fishing grounds occupy
high place in the estimation of the pis-
catorial fraternity, and the crabs are as
plentiful as the fish.
= ~fhe free use of the handsome row boats
by ladies is an extremely popular feature,
and small fleet ofthem can be seen on
the lake at any time.
The music, furnished by Professor Re-
pettis band and orchestra, IS also a very
agreeable feature, not only TO the dancers,
but to the quieter people who enjoy
music for its own sake.
The efforts of the proprietors TO make
this resort the finest on the river are un.
firing and have been crowned with q
success that promises to be permanent.
The trip down the river is not too long to
be wearisome and can be made by the
Leary or Lake, both of which are staunch,
comfortable and well.oflicered boats.

The New Police Boat.

The new police boat Sadie Walker,
which has been on the ways at Gray's
drydock for the past two.days, being over.
hauled, will be taken to the Navy-Yard
this afternoon, where some repairs will be
made to her machinery. The work, which
for the purpose, has caused some indigna.
ton among workingmen who upon ap-
plying for work found policemen doing
the same. This morning Officer Russell
was engaged in painting the hull, and he
said to reporter of THE CRITIC that il
was his old business, and he was afraid to
trust it to any painter. A painter who
applied for the job was turned away.

WOODWARD & LOTHROP

Reductions are the order
Of the day, and here we
wish to say a word about re-
duetions. We never reduce
the price of merchandise
except for good business
reasons, and those reasons
are two. We buy many
kinds of goods, and often.
times make a mistake and
buy the wrong goods, or
styles, or too many of the
same kind of goods. We
know we are wrong when
the goods don't sell rapidly,
hence we reduce their price
to move them faster. The
second reason is, manuiac-
turers find they are over
stocked and offer us the bal
ance of their production at
much less than regular
price.
The old plan used to be TO maintain the
regular retail price, no matter II they did cost
less, We have always found IL paid us bet.
ter to reduce the price on all goods whenever
we could buy at a low figure, and as we can,
and have bought goods at less than frst-of-
the-season prices, we offer you the opportu.
nifty to buy them less from us.
Both of the above contingencies constantly
occurring In the marts of trade, give opportu-
nifty to advertise reduced prices, but 70 also
gives large license for misrepresentation or
MISUNDERSTANDING, and for that reason, IN
THE FUTURE WE SHALL REFRAIN FROM
STATING ANY FORMER PRICE FROM
WHICH GOODS HAVE BEEN REDUCED,
simply stating tho reduced price, whatever it
may be, whether 10 or so per cent. AS we
intimated in the beginning, reductions are
numerous Just now.
Sults.--The demand for cloth suits is on the
wane, which accounts for. the tumble in
prices, Nearly everything In cloth suits Is
now at half two.thirds and three.fourths the
prices OF a few weeks ago. Another reason
for these reductions is, the lots are getting
small and a few sizes missing. % chiIdren's
In sizes 2 to 10 years, are down TO 81 20.
Another lot for children, made Gretchen
style, from white India linen, Is marked
years, 81, and rise 20 cents per size larger,
to 10 years. Other white suits, that we
haven't room to tell about, at So for the poor
est to $40 for the finest.

shore Suits Of Flannel. In sizes from to Ii
years, at S5 for a choice. Were much higher.

What we have said of children's suits refers
equally to ladies. Cloth suits are down con-
(ThIrd hoor.)
Boys Suits-Prices are lower, made so by
the unfavorable weather of May, which inter-
fered with the demand, On the whole, we
are satisfied to sell what we have left at
little or no profit. splendid line are
