THE VALUE OF CONSTANCY.

The constant drop of water
Wears away the hardest stone;
The constant gnaw of Towser
Masticates the toughest bone;
The constant cooling lover
Carries off the bilshing maid;
And the constant advertiser
Is the one who gets the trade. ANON.

A GRAND SUCCESS

The people Of Grand Rapids,
Centralia and vicinity have been
quick to recognize what we meant
when we opened our New store in
the Silber Block for the selling Of
the better class Of Clothing, and
Mems Furnishing Goods without
the big profits attached.
Our opening day was success
way beyond our expectations.
Every person that visited our store
left well satished-of our goods
our prices-the quality-they cam
not help but speak in praises. Is
it to be wondered at. We say no.
We buy for cash, buy where we
can buy the cheapest, take advant-
age of every discount that is given
us, and mark our goods according
ly, and sell them only for cash.

Oh! day OF promises TO pay
Oh! day that ever backward looks
oh! day that ever runs before,
What has thy hidden hand in store,
For mine, tomorrow, and for me?"
OH day of days peculiarly American,
suggestive Of reyel and JOY, and family
reunions; oderous Of feasts and having
a sound of merry voices ringing through
the solemn tones of church bells,
calling all to "Assemble and give praise
and thanksgiving. The aged parents
and the youngsters have store saved up
for this one day, that will be brought
forth with familiar ceremony, and
added to the generous store of good
things that crown the table with plenty.
Oh, day of "reminiscences and retro
spection. How many memories are
revived, how sadness creeps in be-
tween the hours Of mirth, as thoughts
revert to the empty chair at the table,
or the little crib useless BOW and put
away in the attic. A memory of un-
worthy friends, Il thought of unjust
criticism, a shadow of falsehood, or
wrong, or evil comes for moment, but
the evidences that crowd so thickly
around the gathering joys of the day
chase away all saddening thoughts, and
peace, and hope, and happiness rule
the hour. For the day, and all it
brings praise and reverent thankful
ness. Thanksgiving had its foundation
on Plymouth rock, when, in primitive
times, and its primitive ways, a CRATE
ful people few in number, felt called
upon to publicly assemble and give
thanks to Almighty God for blessings
received. The blessings received were
at best full of privation discomfort and
danger.
The seed sown on that day has been
blown by the winds of progress, and
washed by the waves of prosperity,
and waited by influences of gratitude
to every part of the English speaking
| world.

Members and Their Friends Make IN En-
joyable Trip to Annapolis.
The National Geographic Society gave their
annual excursion yesterday. The trip was to
Annapolis. and there were about seventy-five
in the party. In the absence Of the governor
they were received at the state house by Secre-
tary of State LeCompte and were shown through
the building. They visited the Chase Mansion,
witnessed The dress parade Of the cadets and
went aboard the Philadelphia, the flag ship of
the North Atlantic squadron. Last evening
they held meeting in the house Of delegates,
where we're delivered addresses on scientific and
other subjects interesting to the association.
President Hubbard presided and short speeches
were made by g. X. Gilbert and W. J. MCGEE
Of Washington and Daniel r. Randall of An
napolis, who gave four pictures of the historic
city of Annapolis Characteristic of four phases
of its life during $50 years-tirst, Puritan set
tlemant; second, as the Athens of America with
rich and cultured society balls and social clubs;
thirdly, patriotic Annapolis in open resis lance
to British authority, and, finally, Annapolis of
today. unique and charming. W. A. Croffut

W nat the tr1en0e OF Eoch Say ABOUT the
Nomination.
The Blaine talk il stronger at the Capitol to-
day than it has been at any time before. The
Blaine people and the anti Harrison folks gen.
orally express absolute confidence that Mr.
Blaine will accept
Mrs. Blaine is quoted as having said recently
that Mr.. Blaine would write no more letters
that he would not interfere with anything that
the party might do, and that if he was nomi-
mated he would not feel at liberty to decline.
Another report of uncertain authority, but
declared to have come straight, is that Mr..
Blaine will resign from the cabinet within
forty-eight hours.
The fact that Mr.. Blaine did not return to the
city before Mr.. Harrison's departure has been
picked up az . subject Of comment.
Every straw that might give an indi-
cation of the drift is seized upon
mass of those who are anxious for Blaine's
nomination are still without information as to
Mr.. Blaine's purposes.
THE CONSULTATION WITH DIR. PEPPER.
The statement comes to The STAB on author
ity which entities it to credit that when Mr..
Blaine saw DIR. Pepper recently he asked the
doctor fatty il he thought there WAS anything
in his physical condition that would make it
dangerous for him to enter presidential cam
paign.
The doctor replied that he was in every way
able to make the race that it would do him no
harm and that he hoped he would accept the
nomination.
THEY MEAN FIGHT.
The Harrison men are determined now that
no one shall take the nomination from the
President without fight. They say that Mr..
Blaine's resignation from the cabinet at this
time, or even an open and direct
declaration from him that he would accept
the nomination, would not influence Mr.. Harri-
sons course, and that the only way Mr.. Blaine
can get the nomination will be by riding over
Mr.. Harrison after hot fight.
The Harrison people are engaged in making
comparison between the Blaine letters in S8
and the letter to Mr.. ClArkson.
They insist that placed together the letter to
Clarkson is as strong and definite as were the
others. and that Mr.. Blaine's last letter in 88
may be used to interpret the Clarkson letter as
well as the letter it was intended to explain
when written.
WHAT THE PRESIDENTS FRIENDS SAY.
They say, speaking for the President, that if
Mr.. Blaine had said several months ago that he
would accept the nomination MIR. Harrison
would have written letter declaring that he
(Harrison) would not accept II denomination.
1t is declared by Mr.. Harrison's friends also
that even after Mr.. Blaine had written his let
ter to Clarkson the President had in contem-
plation letter declaring that he also would not
have his name presented to the convention, but
that friends interfered and induced him not to
write the letter.
They say, therefore, that now, within few
days OF the convention, after Mr.. Harrison has
permitted his friends to work for him, it is too
late for him to retire, and that he will make the
hight even IL Blaine il avOwed candidate.
They say that Mr.. Harrison understands that.
just AZ MIR. Blaine cannot control his friends
