and dealers IN fine clothing, 40 First
street, agents of the Brownsville Woolen
Manufacturing Company, Of Albany. has
returned from the factory, and brings with
him complete assortment Of spring suit
ings, each and every pattern being a gem
In itself. This move will be source Of
pleasure generally, for everyone IL getting
tired of winter and It's attendant coIors,
and will be only too glad TO discard them
for patterns In keeping with the balmy
days Of spring. And through this fact
the firm can expect an immense .un OF
patronage. >"
A PoINTER.-The DEi4ocKAT Is inform.
ed that several Chinese houses in Albany
receive liquors In large quantities, which
they sell at retail, in fact run secret ser
vice saloor, paying no license for the same
at all, thus defrauding the city of several
hundred dollars IN fees every year. The
matter is.a important one and worth in
vestigating by our city officials. Enough
money might be secured In this manner 10
build several blocks of sewer.
CHILLED PLows.-Those wishing piowi

anime them.
