here from Paris yesterday. Just
100 patterns, in the latest stuii's,
exquisite decorations. We have
eyes and ears in Paris seeking

Paris, presto, Philadelphia. The
prices are from SIS to $40, and
the stufts many sorts. Pick at
random.
S3o-A black barege with
wide lowered border, but the
colors are low in tone-just a
bit quiet-the sort of thing to
meet a mature taste slightly
subdued.
S4o-Old rose barcge, very
rich, with silk damask figure ;
a bit strong in style, but rich,
and, like the whole lot-rare.
There are other colors.
Batiste-black-one each of
several bright silk straight lined
borders at $50, and the same
with palmer borders at So2.
There are Batistes and Grena-
dimes and Wool Diagonals in
sorts of colors and figures.
Perhaps you may not care
for them to-day. 1t will be DIFF
ierent Monday next.

THE Indian Rights association has issued
circular explaining and defending its
support of the oklahoma bill. ii says that
substantially the only difference between
that hill and the measure finally adopted
was that tho former cancelled the cattle
leases In accordance with the opinion Of the
attorney general. The land was given to
the tribes rs an outlet and when leased to
whites for grazing purposes was not prop
erly used. If the ideas of the association
are carried out we may have Indian sena-
tors ere long and some of tho leading men
of the five tribes are educated gentlemen,
quite as competent for senatorial chairs as
many of the millionaircs who hold them.
"The association is most assnrcdIy and
strongly desirous, not only that this gov
ernment shall be erected over the lands
named and contemplated In the bill, but
over the whole of the Indian territory, and
hopes that the negotiations with the Chero-
KEGS may he successful; and more than
this, that the five civilized tribes may give
their consent to he included within its
boundaries, and then, that Oklahoma may
bo admitted as a state into the sisterhood OF
states, and soon be represented by two OF
her intelligent red sons in the United States
Senate"

The american Banker is moved by the
survey of Impressive statistics of failures
OF recent years to suggest remedy In the
passage by Congress of bankrupt and
insolvent law by which more prompt, uni
form and economical settlements can he
made than are now practicable" The sew
eral states have laws in abundance and
measures of this Kind seem To cncroach
upon state rights, but IL is argued that some
legislation is needed to establish "A uniform

Washington Post suggests the organization
of corporations with sufficient means to
purchase for cash all the assets of bank rupt
estates and guarantee To creditors the diyi-
dends to which they may he found entitled

confidence in the value of such an arrange

Mr.. HERBERT WELSH, the correspond

citation, publishes tract strongly support
ing the present Indian commissioner, Mr..
oberly. Much of our trouble with the In
dians has been due 10 the effect of the
spoils system upon the Indian bureau, and
there is probably no branch of the govern
ment IN which the practice of appointing
men to office in reward for party work has
proved 81 costly. Mr.. Welsh thinks that
this question must be decided once and for

the retention fthe present Indian commits

TALLY, ability and integrity" He saws
that agitation for this purpose has continued
Tor three months and every charge against
oberly excepting the charge that he is a
Democrat has been satisfactorily answered
lie publishes statements from Bishop
Whipple and Professor &. C. Painter
warmly praising Mr.. Oberly. The bishop
says: 81 urge Mr.. Oberly's retention ON
these points: |. That in thirty years cxpe-
rience, i'll which have known this depart
ment intimately, do not recall one person
connected with this Office in whom | have
had so great confidence. 2. That he is
Kind, brave, honest, capable and with n
clear idea of what il needed for Indian civ
ilizaiion. 3. That We are ON the eve of
success AFTER long and weary years of strug-
gle, and change to an unkno man
would be perilous. L. That the removal of
Mr.. oberly would bring sorrow TO thou
sands of the Indians friends. 8. That no

that now for the drst time tho proc ed ngs

notification was unnecessary. The presiding
officers at II 80 o'cl lck announced that the
time had arrived for the execution Of the
