Inadverdent, butquitenatural
has been the international
turn which our Dress Goods
talk has taken for some days.
English and French have had
much chattention-notall they de-
serve but it would be far from
fair if group of choice German
fabrics should escape immediate
notice.
They do not show great orr
ginal glory of novelty but their
place IS unique and their pres
ence absolutely essential to a
complete Dress Goods stock.
Read of them, then you'll
want to see them. The Chev-

They are in grey and yellowish
shades, the latter so like laxen
hair in hue that you wonder if
blue eyes are not rolled some-
where in the piece. 81 a
yard. 40 inches.
The chief German interest
centres in some dainty twilled
Melanges of which there are
twenty-seven styles, tans and
grays, plain, plaids and strips,
S1.a5, 48 inches. The twill
is fine as a hair, the fabric
firm and the effect for full Suit
Costumes very elegant.
Shelf neighbors and similar
in material and texture are
some tans and grays with zig
gag, struck-by-lightning sort
of wear and hair line stripes.
The silver grays and delicate
tans are full of the spring spirit,
SIPS, 4S inches.
At the same counters are
the Bedford Cords of light
weight for Dresses. The eyes
of old tailors sparkle as they
tell of old time Bedford Cords.
But that glory departs when
Women's Dress claims the
fabric as it does now.
The Serges also clamor for
notice, but they will not clamor
long. The story is worthy.

swindlers About.

Twossbunco steerers" tried to vic.
timize one of Smyrna's citizens, A. L.
Hudson, Tuesday. We have not time
to go into full particulars but it was
after the practice of the s'three card
monten men who generally want to
buy farm very bad. One of the
parties who had been to see Mr..
Hudson two or three weeks ago
wanted to buy q nice home to
move his family from Michigan, and
called yesterday to complete the
bargain.
They had been to see it and on re-
turning were met by man (the con-
federate of the other) who stopped
them to inquire where be could take
train for Mississippi. Then he told
them how he had been been to Bombay
Hook looking for lost relatives, had
wagered game and lost $1,000 &C.,
&C., finally producing three cards
and wanted to show Mr.. Hudson and
his friend in the carriage how it was
done.
Mr.. Hudson wouldn't bet but the
other man did and won $1,000. Mr..
Fl. was persuaded to pick up card
and see if he could hit the right one,
the third card the man declaring, had
won $1,000. Mr.. Hudson refused to
take it, saying he did not want money
he hadn't earned, but his companion
thrust it into his coat pocket. Their
object was to get him to procure So, 900
from the bank to put up against theirs,
but Mr.. Hudson wouldn't do any
thing of the kind, and got out of the
carriage, and they rode off with out
their money. They claimed to have
$2S, 900, such as it was. Mr.. Hudson did
not realize they were swindlers and
how near he cana to being feeced
until sometime after they had GONE

Mr.. BLAINE is letting out great
deal of reciprocity news since the pas
sage of the Mckinley bill. He still
claims to be Republican but he is
working the low tariff act with a
vengeance. One wing of the party
formulated plan to keep out all i'm
ports, while another wing, lead by Mr..
Blaine, advocates almost free trade
with Canada and all South American
countries. If free trade is good for us
in one case why should it not be good
for us in all other cases. 1t is evident
ly the political shrewdness Of Mr.,
Blaine which has led to his advocacy
of reciprocity; seeing the drift of pub
lie opinion trending away from the
protection idea and recognizing the
fact that his party could not be- made
to see the danger in time to avert dis
aster, he has taken charge himself and
has SO thoroughly thrown his party in
the shade that unless he consents no
other man than himself can be nomi-
mated by the Republicans for the Presi-
dency in '92. He has gained this ad-
vantage by being able to see the neces-
stiles Of the times before defeat could
open the eyes Of his party leaders. OF

From The Elizabeth Herald.
If it Is true, as Mr.. Fassstt insists it is.
that in New York State 5.99s, 900 are la
borers, then why do he and his party
insist on legislating for the infinitesimally
small class minority as opposed TO
the ~immensively large majority of the
masses?
