1t was a happy thought that
found expression a year ago
in The HOllaay Far. We
think it worth repeating tbs
year and SO have collected
great lots of Holiday Goods
and grouped them for your en-
tertainment on the second
floor, Thirteenth and Chestnut
streets. You can buy there if
you choose or can go to the
several stocks whence the
goods are brought and select
from the complete selections.
But there is an added reason
why you will visit the Hollaay
Fazr this year. In an enclosed
corner is quite a remarkable
picture. The Brides of Ven
ice" by the late Giacomo Gia.
-comelli, a distinguished pro-
fessor in the Venitian Academy
of the fine Arts. Some day
soon we will print the legend
that supplies the subject of the
picture. 1t is conveniently
placed and brilliantly lighted.
You'll want to see it,of course.
Very shortly another piece
or two of French AIT will be
ready for your examination.
Never before in the history
of bookselling have publishers
done so much for young or
youngish readers. You know
the great space we have given
to such Books at Holiday
times past. This season we
have added a long line of coun-
tiers in the Middle Aisle, from
Market street entrance. All
filed with bright Books
bright inside and out. Inter.
esting reading, pleasing illus
trations, and surprisingly mod.
est in price. 1t sets the book.
makers themselves wondering
to see how much in the Book
line we give for a few cents,
20 or rs cents will buy a Book
that five years ago would have
been thought cheap at rs
cents.
The best time to buy the

REFERRINe remotely to Captain

News says:
Young Mr. Carpenter is a curious per
son. We donot believe that there Is q
mature minded Democrat III Wilmington
who would have had the slightest diff
Guilty in holding the election last June In
the Fifth ward with such a Republican
associate az Charles II Thomas.
Yesi the difficulty is that there was
any Democrat at the polls at all The
News goes on abusing Mr.. Carpenter as
'dnsolent' and 'imperious" to a lot Of
drunken and bribed negro repeaters
Well. granted that. that is true, is Cap
tain Mitchell and his negro mob the cure
for Mr., Carpenters alleged ''insolence'
aud 'imperiousnessr" Mr.. Car
penter may be impeached But all
Of this Is Irrelevant when we
are trying the case OF Captain Mitchell.
The analytical and legal mind Of the
editor OF the News ought to have strength
and discrimination enough TO distinguish
between the case Of Mr.. Carpenters
dereliction in his official duty and Cap
tain Mitchell's defiance Of public officers
In the discharge Of public duty aud his
incItment and leadership Of a mob at the
polls TO stop an election Is the editor
own mind befuddled or Is he trying to
befuddle the minds Of other people?
