TWO EVENTS.

The phenomena OF the sporting world
are the splendid California 2-vear-old
colt FL Rio Rey snd the contest between
the Boston and New York base Tall
clubs.
On Saturday these two teams played
sharply contested game which resulted in
tie score Of 20 . There were 10000
people to witness the game which was the
most exciting. and some respects, the
best ever played in New York. The game
lasted two hours and the evenly matched
clubs contended desperately for the win
ming run which would assure the lead to
Boston or transfer il TO New York. The
clubs are so evenly matched now that one
game would probably decide where this
seasons penant would go. They played
till darkness put an end to the game and
left the relative positions unchanged, with
Boston slightly ahead.
The other event was the phenomenal
race Of phenomenal colt which carried
1876 pounds at a speed that broke all the
records in weight, age and time. The
time was Ill while the best time for a
year old, was that of Tipstaff,
carrying 105 pounds at speed
Of 112 This was considered wonderful.
Tipstaif's race occurred on the opening
day Of the West Chester races while FL
Rio Reys occurred on Saturday, the last
day.
The owner Of this wonderful colt which
has in his veins the blood Of two famous
racing families has refused to set price
for him.
The race itself was exciting and was
nearly lost by the carelessness Of Win
chell, the jockey, who allowed ri Rio Rey
to slacken his gait till Rdperta had
almost caught him and then whipped the
great horse into the final leap TO win a
race which was already his, except for
the careless confidence OF the jockey
There were crowds Of people in attend
ance at both Of these events. The bellies
aud beaux, Of the rich and poor, the
sporting man, the politician, the mer-
chant and the millio laire Of New York
were there TO watch the last man put out
and to see the first horse come in. It was
a great day for sports and these events
are regarded with interest throughout
the country.

TvNNER has at last got outside Of the

If Eugland's policy of subsidising
ships is good, eommendable and TO be
followed why are not the other parts. Of
English policy good commendable and to
be fo.lowed7 The truth is that England
does not subsidize ships, but IL she did
why can her policy in that re
spect be eliminated as the only
sound doctrine while her free
trade policy which belongs to the same
commercial scheme is false and hurtfulY
The high protectlonist cannot perceive
the Inconsistency Of supporting single
feature Of scheme Of political economy
which has made the richest and greatest
country ION the globe, while he condemns
all other features 1t is like knock
ing out one Of the four wheels
Of wagon on the fallacy that It is the
only good wheel and the one which has
borne all of the burden. Paying suhsi
dies is like taxing the wagon load Of pro-
duce with what the French call octroi,
and then granting the same
wagon a bonus larger than the tax for
bringing that same produce into the
city. The man who owned the wagon
would undoubtedly get rich, but such q
policy would not insure healthy trade
and it would make the people that much
poorer. Inconsistencies like those do not

The Democratic party has no strife
within its ranks. II is desired by we
believe, a majority Of our citizens that
our constitution be revised. The Repub
lican party is insincere in its professions
and In its advocacy OF this reform MS was
evidenced when the Temperance Reform
party urged on by the Republicans
was so suddenly abandoned by
them the moment there appeared chance
of Republican success without making a
profession of this reform. Reform is q
popular thing, and however insiDcere the

PHILADELPHIA. Monday, september2 1889
Our advance announcement
of Saturday that we would lead
off to-day with an opening of
the Fall business naturally ex-
cited general interest.
To do what we now propose
requires forethought and
months of work. 1t cannot
be done at one days notice,
because somebody else catches
the idea.
For months back our store
has been a Saving Fund of
merchandise. All through
June, July and August orders
have been placed and lots have
been purchased, and as they
came in they have been kept
aside, covered up and held
back until the fixed day came
around.
Monday, September ?, is
the proper day, and we invite
calls to see hundreds of thou
sands of dollarsworth of goods,
each kind having some par
ticular merit worthy Of prefer
ence at the Introductory sale
of the fall season.
Having had the largest sum
mer sales we ever had we thus
plan for the largest winter
sales.
September is the early fall
month, when people are not
so much occupied as later on
We hope to have from many
people a few hours here and
there along through the four
weeks to show what prepara-
tions we have made and are
making.
1t is not SO much a question
of immediate buying, though
the sales of September will be
specially attractive for the Iea-
sons above stated-the special
gatherings that mark in the
most striking way what we
can do.
OF course, while we are
closing out the last of summer
things we are limited for room
for the fall things.
We are likewise limited ir
the size of these lots, secured
out of season and by some
special effort. Manufacturer.
limit us by requiring us tc
take off their regular ticket
that 1t may not be known tha
their goods are selling at un
der prices.
1t is the September Limite,
that starts to-day. A vestibul
train where buying is as saf
and satisfactory as the Chicag,
Limited.
This September Limite,
carries in it for you man
treasures. For example:
! BLANKETS.
The finest of the MiSsio
. Mills; white as snowflakes, sol

citizen ample and convenient opportuni'

what benefit can be gained by
by allowing men who win not pay theii

would be OF little value TO the state OF
