That Peculiar

The best things in cookery are always made
and can be made only with the ROYAL
BAKING POWDER. Hence its use is
universal-in the most celebrated res
taurants in the homes of the people,
wherever delicious, wholesome food is
appreciated and its sale is the largest
of any leavening agent in the world.

There never was a time when
dress goods we're as pretty as
now.
There never was a time when
they were SO good.
There never was a time when
they we're SO stylish.
And there Meier aOas q time
vAem they could be bought for
so AItIe money as today.
We will show you an Amery-
can Saline that is good enough
to chase a French manufac-
turer out of the country.
1t can be bought, too, at
price that no foreign maker
ever thought of touching and
can't touch.
You can have an Ameyzcan
Bingham, the genuine Park
hill Zephyrs, for 15c yard
that no sensible woman would
pass by for the Scotch that
cost 4oc.
What we mean is that the
American at 1 SC is better value
and better bargain, will look
almost as nicely and will wash
as perfectly as the Scotch at
4oc.
At no other season before
this have we been able to put
on our counters goods Of
Amerycam make in quality
good enough to sell for 75c
a yard.
We felt compelled to 60
abroad for that quality in other
years.
This Year we give you for
75C, PlaldS of American make
that are really superior to the
foreign goods of other years,
and better than any foreign
goods to-day, held at that
price.
There's good deal of hum
bug in this question Of foreign
superiority in dress goods
fabrics and designs.
American ladies are respon-
sible for most of it.
Why, it is enough to cover
us all with shame when we
have it PROVED to us that
the designs on our beautiful
French Flannels are nearly all
made in America and sent over
to the Frenchman to work out.
We have the handsomest

At no other time could goods

AS we have said, we think the voice
of the people will crystalline on Judge
Powers. We crystallized long ago.
Governor Proctor is where
the lightning will strike--if not by APP
pointment of Governor Page, then by
the coming legislature certainly. Upon
the whole, it could not we'll go to a
better man. Proctor is a very strong
man in every way. He is rising man,
and did he live in any other state than
Vermont would go much higher than
the senate. Pooh! Talk about Powers
when such men as Proctor are about!
On Redfeld Proctor, that dear old friend,
Our fondest hopes in life depend,
For him We'll sing, hurrah and shout,

Bones OF an Ancient Race.

A most interesting find, which may
prove of historical interest, was made by
some well-diggers three miles from Chan
ming on an eminence overlooking the Rita
Blanco Creek, says a Gainesville, Tex)
despatch to the st. Louis Republic. Near
spring they came across a number of
ancient human bones, teeth, etc., protrud-
ing from an exposed lines tone bluff, where,
in the distant past, doubtless some race
OF people had their burying ground. Evil
IDENTIFY at the time of their interment, by
whatever means, this ground was simply
a soft, limy substance and nearly level OF
at least Of a character not easily washed
or exposed. To-day it presents a badly
broken surface, on one side bluff, the
whole hardening limerick hill, and the
scattered and innumeral bones form simply
part Of the rocky hill and can be seen
and cut out everywhere.
There are bones small and large, ribs
jointbones. teeth of sizes which make
them inexplicable. The petrifying condi-
ton Of these bones, except where they are
entirely decayed, and the fact that they
are in no way arranged, but scattered,
precludes the thought that they could
have been placed there by the Indians, I'M
less very remotely. The entire matter
furnishes puzzle alike to the old from
tiersmen and college graduates. The frag.
ments Of teeth found are much longer, ap
parently, than those Of horse, though
not SO heavy and coarse.

Two Hundred Victims in One Day KILLED

eOf the Old Form of Bloodsbed-The
Death Drum Heard Daily.
LONDON, July 1.-Advices just received
from Sierra Leone say that the vigilant
suppression of the slave trade along the
coast and the consequent inability of the
warlike races to dispose of their captives
at profit has caused revival in the
most terrible form of the scenes of
slaughter and bloodshed which formerly
made every chief town of the interior a
Golgotha. ."'
Coomassie, it is said, has again wit
messed the killing of as many as 200 vic
tins in one day, and the death drum is
heard in the streets ev en- more frequent
1y than before the British Ashantee ex
petition, when it was hoped such scene
were put to an end forever.
The savage Wangarus recently made
raid into Dagomba, completely devas-
tating the villages, and carrying off over
1900 captives. They were unable to gel
rid of the prisoners as slaves, and held {
sacrifice feast, which lasted three days
in which every captive persisted, moi
even children being spared.

A Smart Little Girl.

There is charming young widow in
South Minneapolis who retains five-year-
old girl as the only pledge of her dear de-
parted. The little one has just begun to
learn her alphabet. A gentleman called
upon the widow the other evening Of
course, the fond mother wanted to sh ow
off her child. Taking up newspaper and
pointing to the big letters in an adver-
tisement the mother said:
What letter is that?"
GA" responded the child.
What comes after APP
"B."
"And what comes next?"
&C." isped the little one.
The inquiry was pursued still further,
but along toward the end Of the alphabet,
the little girl lost her bearings and never
answered a question.
Finally the gentleman thought he would
put few questions. He began with this
one:
What comes after T?'
The child looked him straight in the
eyes as she answered.:
A man to see mamma"

LOOKING FOR POISON.

MsHenry's Lifo Was insured for Over
Five Million Dollars.
LONDON, July lit appears that the
elimination of McHenry's body, with a
view to examination for poison, was done
for the reason thaC McHenry's life was
insured for over $5,000,000 in various
companies in England and America. The
companies, or some of them, suspect sui
eide by poison, which would void the
policies.
It was intended to conceal the fact of
the exhumation, at least until after the
result of the analysis of the stomach
was ascertained, and to keep the secret
forever should no poison be discovered
The analysis will be completed about the
end of the week.
The friends of McHenry scout the idea
of suicide, and are indignant at the pub
licity given to the case.

AGAIN it has been proved that woman
will allow none other than the modistes
to monkey with their costumes. The
Dress Reform association of New York
started out some time since with the
brilliant idea of reforming women's
dress. Itspet and favorite was bust
ness woman's dress. But its dreams OF
reform came to an end last week, when
an unsympathetic deputy sheriff levied
on all its belongings and advertised them
for sale. 1t is not hard to account fl !
this state of affairs. When the women
of this country want dress reform, such
institutions will have no occasion fol
the services of the sheriff.

A Menu Card Made by the Camera.

An enthusiastic amateur photographer
employs pretty process in producing a
Photographic menu card, so that when he
gives dinner he presents to each guest
photograph Of the house in which they are
sitting; or, if picnic, photograph of the
scenes they are going to visit. On this
card also appears the menu and the name
Of the host and hostess. All that he does
to obtain this result is to leave on the card
a sufficient space to write the menu, and
then prints the negative on a paper that
takes ordinary ink. The cards are neat
andinstructive, and form valuable memen-
tos for each guest.

INCREASE IN FAILURES.
This Year Showing Up Badly In Compar
son With 1890.


son With 1890.
NEW YORK, July 1.-The business
failures for the first six months of the
present year are reported by R. G. Dun
& Co. to number 6,074, as against 1886
in the same period Of 1880
The increase of $50 failures is unusual
ly large. The extent of the liabilities is
also excessive. The amount owed by
the parties who have failed in 1891 foots
up to $92,000,000, while for the same
period in 1890 they were only $50, 000,-
900, indicating an increase in liabilities
OF $27,000,O00.
Notwithstanding the extreme extent
of these casualties and other adverse
circumstances, the reports from all por
lions of the country indicate fairly
healthy condition OF trade, and excellent
prospects in view of the large increase of
wealth from growing crops and active
industrial enterprises.

THIS is world of change. Pennsyl
vania no longer leads in this country in
the production of iron ore, as the figures
show that Alabama's output of iron ore
last year exceed that of Pennsylvania
by good margin. This is significant.
While ten years ago the output of Penn
sylvania was twelve times that of all the
southern states, Alabama then ranking
only seventh on the list, to-day that
state stands below a single one of the
southern states in the amount of iron
