Is our watchword. We never
retrace our steps, but always
march forward, and our pres

rapid gait of our advance. Al
though our building was be-
fore the largest of its kind in
the city, it now majestically
overtowers and throws into in
significance all similar estab-
lishments in Pittsburg. Com
parison is almost out of the
question. Why, the combined

Pittsburg is not equal to the
vast proportions of our newly
enlarged concern. Nor was

to satisfy a whim or vanity. Our
daily increasing trade COM
PEELED us to make it. We need

them both. With such a mag

in our possession, we can well
accommodate almost the en-
tire Furniture and Carpet
trade of Pittsburg. And we

an object for every saving
housekeeper to patronlze us.
Our vast stock, our honest
qualities, our pretty,newstyles,
our matchlessly low prices, our
liberal system of easy pay:

courteous treatment of every
visitor or buyer, cannot but
win for us many additional
staunch friends andsteady GUS
TONERS. And that's what we
want. Unlike other credit
houses, we are not after the
transient trade only-we don't
rub it in" on you, expecting
never to sell you another bill.
Oh, no! We don't do business
in that style. We treat you in
such a manner as is calculated
to give you entire satisfaction
and gain for us your lasting
custom.

Buying at this house resolves
itself for the purchaser not
only in a matter of profit but
pleasure as well. Here, in spa

Cloaks, Clothing. ETC.. and all
displayed in such a manner as
will enable the eye of the pur-
chaser to "take in" everything
at a glance, and select the rel
quired article within a few
minutes. To young married
couples, wishing to go house

boom. Instead of spendingt

have to do is to walk in and

The Royal Arcauum.

Owing to mistaken zeal on the part Of the
young man placed in charge of THE DISPATCH
annoyance seems to have been caused some of
the officers of the Royal Arcanum. The DIS
PATCH management were not informed OF the
matter until the next day, and so had not the
opportunity to rectify the apparent breach of
hospitality. The publishers Of THE DISPATCH
would, had they been advised in time, have
taken care that the most ample facilities were
afforded the gentlemen in charge OF the Royal
Arcanum register even though at the necessity
of suspending for the evening the usual voting
upon a topic of interest As it Is, they
trust this explanation may be considered salts
factory by the aggrieved gentlemen to whom
the apologies of the offender are rendered.

1t is extremely pieasurable to think and
to even know as a fact that eforts are be-
ing made to lift baseball up higher than the
absurd and ridiculous. No doubt every
one of US has hailed with delight the meet
ings and conferences that have been held
during the week, and it seems to me Just as
certain that we all hope for the best. Mhen
] say all mean those of US who are pre-
pared to act in accordance with the prlncl-
piles of fair play, because many people have
not SO acted and will not so act. Some peo-
pie want all the pie, cake, or what it may
metaphoricallE be named, and they very
serenely call this compromise. II this class
of people, 1 care not what side they
are on, will only withhold their
frebrands for week or two

people directly financially interested IN tne
game will soon have the trouble setueu. AS

has done more harm to the baseball SITUATION
than wild and thoughtless expressions tnat
have from time to time appeared IN Ihe news

believe thai the gentlemen who nave thelr
money invested in the game are IN earnest
about effecting a settlement and the trans
actions of tn week convince me more than
ever that there is no solid reason why Settle
ment could not be made. The greatest essential
required to obtain a settlement is the exercise
OF a C1ye-and-take spirit. Without that there
never will be anything done. Concessions must
be made on both sides. and most assuredly
these concessions will be more profitable than
the continuation of this guerrella Warfare-lhls

A Good Argument.

The foregoing is just as true among us in
America as it is in England During the last few
years there have been some very prominent
battles but those connected and interested in
them have made it their business to travel from
city to city telling of the great things to be
done at the fight, Under these circumstances
ing? Why what else could they do? Well,
then, 1t has chiefly been conduct of this kind
that has forced the police authorities to veto
prize fighting and prize boxing In almost every
city in America. When pugilists and their
managers were doing well, like some other peo-
pie know, they were not satisfied and ruined
their business PRINGLE.
