SPRING SEASON, 1892.

Comparatively few people have any idea Of
the large and extensive stock of Ladies' HOUSE
WRAPPERS and SUITS carried by the we'll
known firm of FRATINGER & co. Suffice to
say they have one entire floor of their eStab-
lishment devoted exclusively to this DEPART
ment, and owing to their large purchases they
are enabled to sell their goods at prices eOnsid-
erably lower than any other house in San Fran
cisco. AS an example we quote the following
prices:
CALICO WRAPPERS, $3.50.
FLANNEL WRAPPERS, $500.
WOODEN WRAPPERS, $3.50.
CHALLIE TEA GOWNS, $3.50.

ARE FOR BoIES.
Iowa Democrats Do Not Think Cleveland
Could Carry the State.

Could Carry the State.
Dies MONIES, May 3.-A considerable
number of Democratic county conven-
tions have been held to select delegates
to the state convention which meets at
Council Bluffs May II. All of them,
30 far as reported, were enthusiastic for
Governor Boies for president, and most
of them instructed the delegates to
work for state delegation to go to
Chicago instructed for him. So far as
Iowa is concerned the general belief is
that Cleveland could not carry the state
while Boies, they think, could. 1t is
also the belief of the majority that
Cleveland could hardly carry his own
state of New York, unless some difficult
ties are settled there. which is extremely
doubtful of plishment. Hence,
while Cleveland has many admirers
among the Iowa Democracy, as presi-
DENTAL quantity he is hardly thought of.

Fatally Kicked His Wife.

KMBALL, S. D., May 3.-Word has
just reached here that Daniel McMahon,
farmer living near Duncan, Buffalo
county, made an assault on his wife
Friday night which will probably re-
suit in her death. A dispute arose over
trivial matter, and McMahon, who
was generally considered quiet and
peaceable, became suddenly incensed
and struck his wife, knocking her sense
less. He then kicked and pounded her
until neighbors by chance appeared and
compelled him to stop. Medical aid
was summoned, but the doctor could
give no hope of saving her life. A war
rant was issued and the man arrested.

They then stripped him and put on the

An Explosion Occurs in the House of =
Belgium Official.
LIEGE, May 3. The house of the com
mander of the civic guard was wrecked
by dynamite bomb during the evening
The bomb was placed between the in
side and outside doors of the vestibule
and the bell was rung. The fuse must
have been very short, for the maid SER
want was only half way down the hall
when the explosion came. Doors, cas-
ings, half of the first story wall and the
stone steps were smashed and strewn
along the pavement. The large paving
stones in front of the house were split
and directly before the steps gap six
feet deep was torn. The ceilings fell
throughout the house. The shock shook
the vicinity for 5000 yards,
and many houses within 300
yards were seriously damaged. The COM
mander of civic guard had left the city
with his family. He had been warned
repeatedly since the calling out of the
civic guards for May Day, that an at
tempt of the guards to discipline the
socialists would mean his death. He
therefore left Sunday night after pass
ing the day in the city and issuing
many of the orders in the riots. The
maid who started to answer the ring at
the door was thrown on her back by
the shock and was picked up uncon-
scious five minutes later. She has re-
covered and is apparently without Sc
rious injury. More trouble is appre-
hended and the guards at the public
buildings are maintained with the same
strength as Sunday,

LA CROSSE, Wis, May 3.-Ehorts to

conceding anything, have increased
their demands. Mill owners have given

have gone on strike for nine hours at

progress there for several weeks has
reached its elimination in the absolute
exhaustion of the supply. Cord wood,
too, is scarce article, and fences. side
walks and sheds all over town are suf-
fering. The cause of the famine is to
be found in the isolated condition of the
town and the unprecedentedly bad roads

Jersey City. Conflicting reports as to
the action and conduct of the meeting

meeting was entirely harmonious, and
that no trouble was anticipated with
the railroad officials. Other engineers,
however, declared that the meeting
was exciting and stormy, and they
would not be surprised if strike was
ordered, as the Reading system did in
tend to make uniform but lower rate
of wages.
