Pronounced the Very Rest.

During the last few days the Cheriton Gardens
on Lake Washington, have been visited
by a number OF experts on fruit
culture. The unanimous verdict Is that
they are first-class in every respect
The land is pronounced exactly suitable for
fruit growing. The heavy sale of
the gardens continues, and contracts for
tracts are being made every day. Persons
contemplating purchasing are urged to call
at the offices, get our proposition, and fully
understand the undertaking. 1t will
cost you nothing to see the gar
dens. An opportunity OF making a
splendid purchase on small capital Is rapidly
slipping through your hands. A few hundred
dollars invested at this opportune time, will
net you q handsome income regardless
of any improvements that you make. l.. Ven

on the sale of the early lot Of
Spring Dress Goods which we
are now showing.
They will sell and please no
matter how cold the weather.
The first snow of the season
may set you a thinking of bed
clothing. If you need any just
keep in mind that we have
hundreds of pairs of elegant
blankets and comfortables in
stock and are offering them at
the right prices.
Forgot to tell you that in
the dress patterns of the new
spring goods there are no two
alike. This gives you a chance
Of an exclusive pattern almost.
You would be surprised to
see how much of the light
weight goods, the challies, the
ginghams and the sateens there
are being sold. One thing
about these sateen brooches that
it might be well to keep in
mind is that the manufacturers
of them, owing to the immense
popularity of the new goods,
have had to limit orders on
them. We received notice
yesterday to the effect that we
could not duplicate our order
in full. When these are gone,
we hardly expect to be able to
obtain a further stock of them
this season, SO if you are think
ing of having a dress made of
these brooches, it would be well
that you do not delay in MAX
ing your purchase.
There is feast for the arts
tic tastes up in the carpet de-
partment. Even if you have
no idea of buying, it is worth
your while to spend a few mo-
ments in the department look
ing at the new designs. There
are some beauties that you
have never seen in carpeting
before.
The carpet weavers have
been vieing successfully with
the artists and it requires no
stretch of imagination to see
in some of the new designs
regular paintings.
In all the qualities there is
the same uniformity of artistic
elegance.
We conscientiously believe
our carpet stock to now be the
finest and most complete on
the Pacific Coast. Within the
past two weeks fully two hum
dred new designs of carpets
have been received and placed
| in stock. These are now ready
for your inspection any time
you may favor us with a visit.

Is There Snow on the Moon.

A special from San Jose, Cal, says thai
Professor Holden, of the Lick Observ.
atOry, has procured through the big
telescope some marvellous photographs Of
the moon, and astonishing revelations
are soon expected from the study Of
these photographs. The astronomers Oh
Mount Hamilton have discovered some
things that nobody else ever saw, and the
results of their work will be received
with eager interest all over the world.
For example, upon the top of one Of
the mountains of the moon the photo
graph shows luminous white spot that
looks like snow. If that is snow, and il
it was not there before, the presence Of
an atmosphere is indicated. 1t has been
believed that the moon has no atmosphere
and therefore is uninhabitable, but if iE
should be demonstrated that snow falls
upon the surface of the satellite the ac-
cepted theory would be upset, and as
tronomers would begin to study the
moon with new and greater interest.

1t is gratifying to know that
the leading men Of this country
have seen, telt and had taste of
the bitter prejudice, caste distinc-
non, and race prescription that
prevails in this city, towards our
people. Last summer, a man of
our race, prominent figure iu
the Graud Army, as dark as the
clouds ofevenlng said that he felt
no heavy hand of proscrip ton,
IN this city, and that when the
Grand Army should encamp here
III 1892, they would not allow 1t,
etc. etc. Now if men of culture,
and great learning, leaders in tie
Methodist church, men Of letters,

from time to time at home aud
abroad, been brought face to

We are not living lu the mere
hope to have the Law verified iu

coming of the Grand Army Vet
Grams, Ecumenlcal Conference or
what not. We are demanding it's
full and impartial enforcement

our reach to appeal to the ballor
