NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
The sOedther today

. So NJ Q, it's all cotton
~ not a thread of
silk in it; not
a fiber of anything
about it but pure cotton.
That is what the clerks
in our Draperies depart
ment have been called upon
+ to say time and time again
inanswer toquestions about
the new line of cross-stripe
"Pongees" that was opened
here a few days ago.
1t is the closest imita-
ton yet of the printed In
dia Silks, costing SI.oo and
SI.25 a yard.
A closely woven, smooth
glossy fabric, printed in del
icate tints of rose, green,
blue and yellow, nearly
yard wide, and soft and
clinging like silk. Stand
six feet from it as it hangs
from the rails there, and you
would declare it was silk.
The choicest inexpensive
material for chamber cur
tains that has ever been
produced, and the very
best sort of stuff for drap-
cries for summer cottages
and hotels-2oc a yard.
And this is only one of
the many new things the
Drapery department. has
opened within a week. The
difficulty now is to find
room enough to show them.
Was there ever such a
variety of likely stuffs for
making homes homelike,
for giving cold, cherries,
stiff looking rooms an air of
brightness, comfort and lux
ury, Transforming ugliness
to beauty, and rigid plain
ness to graceful elegancef
We think not.
The bestpart of it is that
it doesn't require a fortune
to bring it all about. A few
dollars, a very few dollars,
thoughtfully invested in
decorative goods like these
and the old house begins to
shine, or the new house
takes on an appearance of
artistic refinement that can
not be realized by the ex-
penditure of ten times the
cost in any other direction.
The revived liking for
Bamboo Portieres, and the
increased demand for them
has induced us to put in
stock a complete new as
sortment. There's a place
in every house for one of
these-always clean, al
ways in place, cheap and
highly ornamental, they'll
last a life time.

CITY GOVERNMENT.
Regular Monthly Meeting of the City
Council.
Committee on Streets Ordered to
Commence Work on the Ferry
Landing.
Miscellaneous Matter of More o.
Less interest.

The regular monthly meeting of the City
Council was held last night. An order was
passed directing the committee ON streets to
begin work on the new ferry landing. and
considerable other business transacted.
In Board of Mayor and Aldermen.
Mayor Melcher presided. The full board
of aldermen were in attendance.
FOR SUFFERING JoHNsTowN.
An order was passed directing the Mayor
to take the necessary steps towards obtain
ing contributions of money for the relief of
Johnstown, Pa, where SO many lives were
recently lost.
INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION.
The commit ee on public buildings made
this report:
To the City Council The Joint Standing
Committee on Public Buildings. to which
was referred the communication of G. r..
Milllken as chairman. and in behalf of the
Board OF Manufactures of the Board of
Trade of the city of Portland, have the hon
or to report that the committee have consid-
cred the subject matter of said communica-
ton and conferred with the members of the
Board of Manufactures in relation thereto
and the committee are of the opinion that
the erection of proper exposition building.
devoted TO the purpose of an industrial exhi-
bition, would be of great benefit to the man
ufacturing and business interests of the city
In general, and tend to promote and stimu-
late new enterprises which could not fail to
benefit the entire community.
The committee have considered the cues
| tiOn of exemption from taxation, and are adj
vised that the City Council has not the legal
| right to grant such exemption, and the com
| mittee do not approve of an attempt to ac-
| complish by indirect methods what cannot
be legally done by direct agreement. In this
connection, however, the committee have
deemed 1t proper to fix the proposed rental al
such a sum as, in the opinion of your
committee, would be likely to induce the
corporation to assume the taxes and at the
same time to secure to the city the same in
come as Is now derived from the property.
the present rental being $500 and that rec
commended for the lease $500; the difference
would be the estimated taxes which the cor
poration will have to pay upon its building.
Thus the city would, in the end, derive t6e
same income as at present, and the corpora-
ton would pay in rent and taxes only the
same amount for which the present building
is now rented.
The committee do not overlook the fact
that the city, in its corporate capacity, can
not reap any advantage from the proposed
action, but inasmuch as the citizens gener-
ally viii be greatly benefited thereby, the
committee deem it wise and proper for the
city, in its corporate capacity, to do all that
can legally and legitimately be done in aid
Of The. purposes proposed by the Board of
Manufactures.
To that end the committee recommend the
passage OF the accompanying resolution:

THE FISH ARRIVALS.
Fifteen Hundred Pounds of Mackerel
Landed Yesterday.

Yesterday Captain Wallace landed 1900
pounds of mackerelfrom his weir at Small
Point, being the first mackerel of any
amount landed here this season. They
were fine fish and the market was eager for
them. At Boston yesterday 1000 barrels of
fine fresh mackerel were landed, some 80 or
40 barrels of which were shipped to this city.
These catches are encouraging to the seiners.
The season has opened better than it did
last year, and there is feeling among fish
ermen that mackerel will be more plenty
this year than they have been for several
years past. The other fish arrivals at this
port yesterday were as follows:

Him Are False.

Last Friday, Messrs. Gushing & McKen-
ney of this city received a letter from Capt.
fellow, late master of the unfortunate fish
erman John Somes. in which the captain
states that the charges made by Sutherland

to their satisfaction. Messrs. Gushing &
