THE Alta California has this to say IN
regard to Texas legislation: 'tTexas Is
more honest than most states, as she is
bigger than any. Her law provides that
'sfor every fight between man and man,
OF between men and bulls, or between
dogs and bears, or between bulls and
other animals, or between dogs and
dogs, $500 for each performance. - That
is better than to have q law against these
things and permit its violation.

OUT of twenty strikes that occurred IN
the United States during the first week
of August, seven were in Pennsylvania,
and the Philadelphia Record says:
''Nearly all were for an advance of
wages, showing that in the community
where protection has had fullest swing,
and where presumably its alleged benefits
would be most manifest, there is the
most discomfort among the workers. The
list includes coke workers, railroad Ia
borers, furnace hands, blacksmith 8
helpers and mill girls. -

THE New York Herald has devised
noble plan for raising money to carry out
the great fair in 1892. 1t is to raise
$40 900 900 in shares of $40 each, and
thus make it popular, or, in other
words, give the poor people q chance
to give. In interviews it appears that
the weightv fnanciers of the city ap-
prove of the plan. This is very kind OF
the Herald and of the New York mil
lfonafres. The poor will be delighted
with the "chance. -

grief has been very dramatic. She
filings herself on the dead body of Judge
Terry, she filings herself on the casket,
and if she had been allowed to fling yher-
self into his grave she would not have
been the loser. In fact, Sarah's habit
of finging, that began in fiinging away
herself, is the root of evil in her case.

afraid They Would Cranap HIS Style, Spoil

Yet many of the best dressed men in Pittsburg
wear ready-made clothes, having learned where
to go for the right sort.
There are but about Is of the Clothing man
ufacturers of this country whom we deem strictly
frst-class and as such worthy of our patronage.
From these we exact guarantee that what we
buy shall be the best of its kind, subject to
cancellation of our order if goods do not come
up to sample
We know that for gentlemen the most stylishly
cut and handsomely trimmed garments it is pos
sible to get are imperatively demanded. With
them everything must be precise and exact to a
point of perfection and nicely. We can give
what is wanted to certainty. The goods we
offer are perfect fitting and of superior material
and workmanship from the best of
domestic and finest imported materials and in
every minute detail the greatest care is exercised
to make them absolutely faultless.

it up leisureIy through the winter and not be
at all rushed in getting my stock to market,
as would be the case If it happened to be
oysters or game. The gulf oysters bring
about a dollar barrel in the New Orleans
market and game whatever one can sell it
for.
ST said went down so the coast fishing
for pelicans. Sometimes we shoot them;
but the easiest plan, and that is always a
great point with shantyboatman, is to fish
for them. You know the pelican. of course,
big white bird, with web foot, long
beak, and pouch forward into which it
tosses the fish as fast as it can SCOOP them
out of the water.
My plan is to take long line; rig it out
with about so hooks set in punches of threes.
lashed back to back; keep the line on the
water by means of floats, and bait the hooks
with fry. The pelican sails over the water,
sees the fish, swoops down and pouches
both fish and hook. When he tries to take
them away with him the line brings him up
short, and he falls into the water with a
splash, where he founders around until 1
paddle out and take him aboard with me.
There is bunch of fine, hair-like
feathers in each wing of the pelican, which
bring about 20 cents for each bird, on the
average.
MONEY IN SHARKS.
"There is market for shark oil; but as
trying out the livers, from which the oil is
made, is a disagreeable job, generally let
sharks alone. But in the winter of '84
wanted money for a new boat, and as the peli-
cans seemed to be coming pretty slowly and
gators had gone in some distance from the
coast, made up shark tackle and tried
my luck in that branch of the fsherman's
business. The tackle was merely 40 feet
OF stout rope, couple of yards of chain and
a treble-barbed steel hook.
81 baited with tough piece of alligator
tail, and after tying the shore end of the
rope to a sunken rock, L paid out the bait
over bluff into deep water, and then went
back to the camp for the night. The bait
was carried away three nights in succession,
but on the morning of the fifth day saw
black fin just off the rocks, and knew one
was we'll hooked. There was no use trying
to drag him ashore, while alive, and 1 spent
the rest of the morning coaxing him to the
surface by pulling on the line, and then fill
ing his hide with bullets.
"Getting him ashore, cutting him up, and
trying out the liver, of which there was over
; barrel, yielding me IS gallons of oil, was
the hardest weeks work have done for ten
years, and when it was marketed the oil
only yielded me go cents gallon"

BIG INCREASE IN POPULATION.
Dihsnbacher, of the City Directory, ON the

Difsnbacher, of the City Directory, ON the
Growth of PittsburE.
The canvass for names for the new city
directory was completed yesterday, and the
first copy for the book will go to the printer
tomorrow. 1t is believed that number Of
names have not been secured owing to re-
movals during the past two weeks.
IF any person is anxious to have his name
in the directory and has moved since the
canvass began, he will be accommodated if
he calls at the Office within the next two
DAYS.
Publisher Diffenbacher said yesterday
that the work of collecting the names had
taken more time this year than ever before.
He cannot make an estimate of the popula-
ton of the two cities at present, but says
that from the number of names he can safely
say the population has increased more than
during any previous year.
The compiling of the names will require
about four weeks time, and the book will
not be issued for about six weeks.
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-04-21

And such fits! The time has passed when lack
of proper fit is an attribute of all ready-made
clothing. The rightly ready-made fit perfectly,
but then this sort is not to be picked up every
where.
When you come to US for clothes you come to
headquarters. Our best Suits and Overcoats are
practically as good as can be produced. SIS to
$50 is enough to pay for either.
If any one has any doubts of our ability to
give as good clothing as any merchant tailor; if
any one questions our ability to save purchaser
anywhere from IS to 40 per cent or to please in
fabric or pattern, let the said person spend an
hour in Fine Clothing Department
Inspect the general appearance and style of each
No tailor in this any other city can duplicate
any suit we offer for less than one-half to twice
as much money.
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-04-21

1t is rather calling to man who pays his bills
to realize that unavoidably, his tailor's prices
must cover losses from bad debts. As fast as the
merits of such garments as we offer are compre-
hended there is double attraction about our
cash prices. SIS to $50 for frst-class spring
Suit or Overcoat means that the purchasing
power of every dollar goes into the clothes and
the buyer is the gamer
Then the satisfaction of knowing that what
ever is selected may be returned if one changes
his mind or his wife changes hers No insisting
on selling you something else. We hand back
money for, clothes returned as pleasantly as if it
was the most profitable part of the business. It
is. For usually that simple act secures good will,
and good will to-day means patronage in future,
which will assuredly come. We can wait for it.

4 CANADIN LAWYER is trying to
argue that bunko Is not robbery.
OF course he is only trying to distors
the facts in order to clear his client,
but il brings TO mind the gentle
manly tone which is given to some
offenses against the law. All gamb-
ling schemes are robbery schemes,
and much less could be said of bunko,
which does not pretend to be any
thing but a swindle. There are
many sharpersin the tolls in different
parts Of the contry at present, and
the law ought to be laid down to
them with severity enough to insure
greater safety to defeneless people in
the cities.
