DON'T GET STUCK,

You can easily get stuck without going near anything in the shape of mud, and you can avoid being stuck. To be stuck in purchase is to be victimized. To be stuck Orwell that's slang, and will let you guess the rest. Pardon the slang long enough for us to tell you that you'll be stuck on and not by our rightly made cloth ing. By rightly made we mean right in every respect, color as well as style, quality and fit. To have the color reliable is quite important this season, while the market is full of light colors and many of them will fade badly when worn. Study economy by wear ing our reliable clothing.

It Presages Victory.
From the Richmond Dispatch.

From the Richmond Dispatch
The Democrats everywhere are
hoping for victory. Nay, they are con-
fident. They look upon Cleveland's
election as certain to follow II the cam
psign shall go on as it has begun. The
Democratic triumphs in Arkansas and
Alabama and the Republican losses in
Maine and Vermont have in them moth
ing to encourage the Republicans. The
advocates Of the force bill cannot pre-.
tend to believe that a majority Of the
voters favor it.
But we repeat what we have often
said-namely, that victory comes not
from boasting but from hard work. We
must fight a hard battle II we would
elect our ticket. The result predicted
will certainly come II we do our duty.
In Virginia everything prom ises a
Democratic victory this fall. The
dwindling away of the Third party or
parties will not cease until election
day,when the few then left will fall into
line with their Democratic brethren.

THE CHOLERA.

The impression is gaining ground that
the New York health otllce lacks frank
ness in dealing with the public. Cholera
has existed in that city for ten days,
and it's peculiar characteristics are
readily detected, yet the matter is con-
cealed until five deaths have occurred at
four different and widely separate
points, indicating as many different
cenlers of infection.
Now put the case plainly. The aver
age cholera death rate is not over SO
per cent. Then where are the other
five cases which at tho lowest estimate
should exist to bear out the proportion?
Scattered over the country or still being
inspected" in New York?
There is too much Tammany in the
New York board of health and too little
medical science. Now that the disease
is in, DR.. Jenkins calmly announces
that no quarantine can maintain over 70
per cent. of effecti veness. We predict
that several Of the guarantees which
will now be in order against New York
will maintain 100 per cent. of effective
ness.

Common Sense Athletics.
From the Atlanta Constitution.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
According to leading medical Jour
nal 5000 soldiers who were examine d
by surgeon were found to be suffering
fully so per cent. of them, from heart
trouble due>to forced exertion.
1t Is believed that fully as large a
percentage OF the athleecs- of to-day
will, twenty-five years. hence, suffer in
the same way in consequence Of their
excessive exercise. The fact is, athle-
tic sports are not conducive to longevity.
In France, where there is very little OF
the present craze for muscular develop
ment, there are more people over the
age OF sixty than there are in England,
where physical culture is carried to it's
extreme limit. Our medical contem.
porary goes on to say:
"Great athletes die young, and a
mortality list of Oxford mon who had
rowed in the varsity races shows that q
comp ratively small percentage of them
lived out the allotted time. II our read
ers will bear in mind the difference be.
tween athletic sports, as typifed by
contests, and rational exercise, as typi-
fed by walking, riding, rowing. skating

sertton. Exercise reall means motion;
and with motion as with roast beef
while moderation means health, excess
means disaster and disease Exercise
carried to the point OF exertion is disas-
trous; exercise confined Within the limit
OF fatigue is wholesome"
Common sense is needed in these
sports and contests, and. where common
sense leads, moderation will always
follow

The Concert Last Night.

The concert given at the Opera House
last night under the auspicies of the
choir of st. Johns Episcopal Church
was not very we'll attended. The singing
of Miss Elizabeth A. Taylor was the
chief feature. Her voice is pleasing
and shows cultivation. The chorus
work, however, was heavy and showed
a lack Of phrasing.
The solos by S. B. Cary and Thomas
MoVeigh were we'll rendered, although
accompanist in his frst number. The
piano used on the occasion was kindly
loaned by the Hobbie Music Company.
This piano, Sohmer grand, possesses
a rare quality of tone, affording the per-
former opportunity to reproduce in an
effectual manner the idea of the com
poser.

Tarnmany Hall.


From the Now York SUM-
Tammany Hall in the past has been
the favorite object of Mugwump attack.
Why? Because of its strength and the
successful operation of its pc itical
methods. For that very reason now
every sensible Mugwump rejoices that
the Democracy has leader in this cam
paign 80 iadomitable. Every body who
wishes Democratic triumph is to-day q
TammanY man.
The charges and insinuatlons of the
enemies OF the Democracy, that Mr..
Cleveland feared to associate himself
with the Tammany chiefs, have been
shown to be false and slanderous. The
Tammany plan Of campaign and the
Tam many methods are his. OF course,
they are his, for they are those of every
Democrat who desires victory and not
defeat next November. Down with the
force bill is the Tammany cry, aud il
is the cry which downs all others as the
Democratic host marches to victory.

GROVER CLEVELAND has served the

years, and therefore is no experiment.

were subserved and all went prosper.
ously on. He opposed all trusts and
combinations which claimed undue
exemptions, and he bravelY met every
contingency that arose. If he is elected
President again we may look forward to
another period of similar sort-with
plenty and prosperity smiling over a
peaceful land. We do not want to be
understood as asserting that Mr.. Har-
rison's administration has brought upon
us these stringent times, which all feel
and have been nearly contemporaneous
with his term, yet they are here and
people can draw their own differences.

The news from Maine is shockingly
bad to Mr.. Harrison, and shows that
that State is by no means 80 hell.b bent
on going for the Republicans as it was
for the famous Governor Kent in the
earlier and better days OF the republic.
Mr.. Harrison's majority in 1883 was
1888. Tie Republican majority there
yesterday was hardly ,OcO. Evidently
all is not we'll with the Republican
party. A few moro such victories as
those 1t has just achieved in Vermont
