THE COMING FIoHr.

The league will fight the battle Of 1890 with
ten clubs, somewhat disagursd, it is true, but
still in the ring. Each club will play one hun
dred and twenty-six games, sixteen less than
heretofore, with a series of seven games abroad
with each of the other nine clubs and as many
at home, thus making each interclub contest
consisting of fourteen games. There are four
teen open dates and nine travelling days, thus
giving twenty-three idle days for each team.

city. Mr.. Hewett's proffer Of his franchise to
the league for q consideration found no takers,
simply because the magnates could not find an
other victim, and one would be worse than
none. Accordingly at the meeting yesterday
afternoon it was decided that the league must
face the inevitable and adopt ten-club sched-

to be received, not facts, were the
grounds on which the petitions were
drawn up. The damages accruing from
the breaking down of mill dams and the
overflow of the country are considerable.
For the other side, a large number of in
habitants from tin towns to be affected
testified to the benefits they expected to
receive. The expert testimony Of one who
had a long experience in numbering and
floating logs was given TO show the pro-
posed plan was perfectly feasible. The
counsel urged the effect would be a public
benefit 1t would create great industry
in those regions which were yet undevel-
oped. The destruction Of the forests was
not intended, as the company cut trees
only foot through, thus thinning out the
best, and which would soon be decaSiug.
They only went over the ground once in
fifteen years. They were chartered to do
business in manufacturing paper and had
purchased these timber tracts. IL would
now be inconsistent to deny them this OPP
portunity to make use Of them. The com
pany proposes to settle for all damages,
and while it is, of course, a private enter
prise, it will help the country at large.

Mr.. Langdon,s Reception.

The most brilliant reception given at the
capital for many years was that of Mr..
James Il. Langdon AT his residence Thursday
evening Seven hundred invitations were
ISSUED, and it would seem from the many
who were early disclosed gathering at the
entrance under the glow of two arc lights,
and from those assembled within, that a
large number Of these were accepted. The
receiving party were Mr. James Il. LanglOn
and Miss White; Mr.. and Mrs. John Good
win of Fair Haven; Colonel f. =. Jewett
and Mrs r.. =. Walton and Mr.. and Mrs.
Albert futile Of Fair Haven. The ushers
were Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Porter, Mr. and
Mrs. j. w. Brock, Mr. and Mrs. l.. b. Cross,
MIR. e. ID. Blackwell, and Miss futile Of
Fair Haven.
The decorations were the artistic work Of
a florist from New York, aud were luXuraut

quently disposed in manner to heighten
the effect of the decora' ions, and the radi-

the costumes of the ladies', and gave the
asSe' blage rare tone of brillancy. The
refreshments were elaborate and delicious
and uotW outstanding the many present, the
service was exceptionally quiet and efficient
Excellent music was furnished by the Mont
pelier Military Band orchestra. Among
those present were the state officers, the
members of the general assembly, prom-
nent persons from all parts of the state,
and large number of the people of Mont
pelier, personal mention of whom is pre-
cluded by the circumstances of the occasion.
The affair was distinguished for its social
freedom and enjoyment, and will be long
and pleasantly remembered.

Anything neaO has it's attrac-
tons for most of us.
We come to day with some
thing altogether new and al
together novel.
Ladies are always looking
out for styles and patterns, and
good many who have the
skill and industry to do much
of their own sewing will find
this new arrangement much to
their liking.
First of all there is a maya
zine printed devoted to Vast
Innings. This we give away
to our customers.
From this you can select the
style of Waist you would like,
and then when you give us your
measure, we will give yen free
a paper pattern superior to
either Butterick's or Dem
orests, and with it, a complete
lining all cut and warranted to
fit you.
All this costs you no more
than the regular lining; 25c to
45C all the cost.
Look at these new Innings,
and see whether or no they
are a help to you.
English Broadcloths, 50
inches wide, you can have no7O
for 75c yard. Last season
nothing less than SI.oo a yard
would get this quality.
Genuine Yankee Flannels,
IA inch block checks, are Just
as pretty as though they had a
foreign name attached to them
the standings are grays, browns,
tans and garnets.
A Scotch Homespun can be
had for SOC, that cost last year
81 I-2C.
A Yankee Homespun is right
here at soc, and it's a good
one, too, we assure you.
Novelty Plaids never were SO
plentiful with us at SOC yard
you can take your choice among
those made at home or those
made abroad; the price is the
same.

designs, "A inches wide, many

This morning we begin the
offering of our fortunate pur-
chase of Regatta Silks.
This particular sale has the
great merit of being along the
line of approved qualities that
you and we have known all
about for years.
It's a sale that we are Just
little proud to inaugurate, be-
cause it is always a pleasure
to us-to give our customers
really excellent goods at a pos
itively low price.
A saving of CSC on a yard of
silk amounts to good deal of a
saving where 20 yards are used
81 I-2c and soc saving on a yard
comes to still more. This is Just
what you will save on all you
buy from this lot of Regattas.
Don'tthink that these prices are
to continue, for they will not.
The manufacturer has deter
mined that he will not make
another yard except on direct
orders for the merchant, and
his prices can not be less than
heretofore. The present prices
are therefore a present oppor-
tunity for you.
You get now for $I.o5 what
cost you SI.25 a month ago.
You get for SI,I2 IL what
cost heretofore SI.37 I-2 you
get for $I.25 what was $3.50.
and you can have for $3.50
what you paid $500 for a short
time ago. Isn't this all worth
your attention
We lead you right and advise you RICH
in this weekly talk, do We not? Did you
ever find our advice wrong, or our Judgment
at fault? OF course, you haven't; and so we
come again with advice to the ladies whe
have thoughts OF a black silk dress.
Come without delay and Isee the quality
and price on our well-known Regatta Silks
The opportunity is a great
one.

ITS SIZE AND SUBJECT,

The painting is but 2l l-2x25 Pin

by inches. Here is brief DESCRIPTION
of the picture: ''''''
It represents a young man and a
maiden pausing from their work in
in the field to listen to the tolling Of the
."Angelus," themselves joining in even
ing prayer. The sun has already sunk
below the horizon. The sky is still
luminous with the warm golden LIGHT
which gives peculiar glowing light to
the surrounding fields. The Young
couple have been busy harvesting the
potato crop. They stand quietly in the
foreground, their figures clearly cut
against the vivid background. Their at
titudes express the devout religious sem
timents of rustic piety. Both send in
silence feeling prayer to their Maker.
while the bells are ringing the "Ange,
lus, (the evening prayer) in the belfry
OF the quaint little village church, which
is seen far away on the horizon, clearly
defined against the golden sky.
