REMNANTS TO-DAY. FRIDAY,

The Object of this Remnant Day" is to
keep the stock of the various departments
complete fresh and attractive For instance,
in Wrap, Suit. Jacket, Glove. Boys Clothing,
Underwear. Hosiery, and other departments
the medium sizes are generally sold first, and
very large oryery small are left. then the line
is incomplete. Rather than keep these from
week to week, We withdraw them, give them
a low remnant price, and sell them Friday
Then in China, Bric-a-Brac, Stationery, Jap
ancse, and other departments goods will get
scratched, soiled mussed, and otherwise de-
faced from one cause or another. These are
also withdrawn from regular stock and mark
cd without reference cost.
in BlacI; and Colored Dress Goods Lace,
Ribbon, Linen, Upholstery and other piece
goods departments there are stacks of short
lengths left every week-uscful to you, but
not to lis. These also are marked at very
low remnant priccs-sO it is throughout the
entire store. Our only alternative is TO get
rid Of them, and We realize that the only way
to do il is to put very low prices on them.
Upholstery offers lot of Lace Curtains at
very low prices. Ask for these by the num-
bcrs-it will prevent good deal of trouble
and save time.

Instruments of Party.

To The Editor of the 1ierandrio Gazette:
Your leading editorial of the 18th be-
gins as follows:
1T is hoped tlfat all the offices at the
disposal of the government may be put
in the hands of democrats as soon as
possible after the Inauguration Of Mr..
Cleveland, so that the instruments by
which the principles and policies of the
democraticparty are to be administered
may be not only in entire, but hearty
accord with the administration
Permit me TO say that this hope is one
which none Of your democratic readers,
not even pronounced civil service re-
former like myself, should fail to echo.
our only point Of dissent would be as
to which officers of the Federal govern
ment can be justly and properly termed
instruments by which the principles
and policies of party are administered. :"
They are really but few hundred !;
though removals for cause, especially
for offensive partisanship, should large
ly swell the list. When these are all
out, the rest should remain during good
behavior. l.. NJ. B.

We desire to call special at
tention to this department of
our business which, under the
decidedly successful manage
ment Of our last cutter, has
steadily grown in popularity
The we'll conceded fact of the
great superiority of custom
work over the best ready-made
garments is so patent to all
who have ever given both a
trial that it is hardly necessary
to dwell on this subject, but in
this connection we wish to
compare the relative cost of
the two; the difference between
the ready-made garment and
the custom does not exceed
from S. to $40 a suit. The
ready-made garment never fits
as if it were made for you, and
the result of a few weeks
wear testifes to its defects Of
shrinking and bad
work. We guarantee to keep
all garments made by us in
perfect order during months
actual wear free of charge.

The Catholic Conclaye.

Another lengthy session, replete with
clear-cut discussions. was the task IL e
conference OF archbishops performed in
New York yesterday.
1t has been reported that the arch
bishops were discussing solely the
question of the appointment of court
to settle diocesan controversies, the
status of certain secret societies,
the future of the Catholic University
at Washington, sc. The fact is, the
material advancement of the interests
OF the Catholic parochial schools of the
United States was the subject consider
ed principally, The archbishops have
been presenting their views on this
matter, though all are bound to secrecy,
for the present at least, as to the char
acter of the deliberations. 1t is known
beyond doubt that the archbishops are
delighted at the progress made in de-
tie and the entirely harmonious feel
ing than has prevailed in the sessions,
Notwithstanding the opposing opinions
held.
Some think the parochial schools
should be allotted a share of the school
taxes raised by the State, commensu-
rate with the amount paid by parents
whose children attend the parochial
schools. Others favor a compromise
by which these schools will be sub
ject 10 inspection by State officials,
and one or two deem it advisable for
Catholic children TO attend public
schools under certain restrictions and
safeguards.
No statement has been made public
by any member of the assembly regard
ing the work being done in conference,
and none will be made until the pro-
gramme of subjects has been consider
ed fully.
1t is said that a portion of the time
was occupied in the discussion of the
questions on the condemnation of GER
tain secret societies.
In explaining his position, Archbish
op Katzer said that it is absolutely not
true that the Frcemasons are theonly So
ciety forbidden by the church, and that
consequently Il Catholic may join any
lodge but the Freemasons. Accord
ing to Archbishop Natter, the society
of Odd-Fellows has within late years
gained Il large increase Of membership
from the Catholic ranks, on the plea
that they are not Freemasons, and
therefore not a society forbidden by
the Catholic Church. The majority of
the council conceded with the opinions
expressed by Archbishop Katzer, and
appropriate action will be taken before
the close of the conference so that the
matter will be indisputably settled
Another session will be held to-day,
and perhaps it may be necessary to
continue to Saturday before the who @
work is finished.

Welded THE WRONG SIsTEE.-A
Millvillc, n. j., old maid got a husband
by Il clever ruse, but subsequently
had her hair pulled out by her youn-
ger sister, whose lover she stole, and is
now in danger Of losing her husband
beside. Jennie Clark had answered an
advertisement in a matrimonial paper,
and after years correspondence be-
came engaged to Silas Harper, of Mil
ford, Del, although they had never
seen each other.
Jennie has an elder sister Mamie,
who has been trying for many years
to get married, but ha not succeeded.
Silas wrote on a postal card that he
would come to Millvillc to meet his
future wife and wed her Mamie got
the mail the day the postal card ar
rived. From the hieroglyphics on it
she deciphered Silas's plan; so when
Silas arrived Mamie was there to
welcome him. She told Silas she
was his own Jennie and suggested that
they stop at the minister's on their
way going home so they would not
have TO make second trip down town
again. Silas thought the plan was Il
good one, and the two were accord
lngly married.
The family was astonished when
Mamie introduced her husband. 1t
was not until late that night that Jen-
ME came across the postal card, and
Immediately saw through her sisters
game. She went to Mamie's room, and
a war of words was followed by Il hair
pulling match in which Mamie got the
worst and yelled murder" Silas
stood by and watched the fuss for a
while and then put them both out,
though said Mr. Clarkson in telling
the story, he handled Jennie more
tcnderly than Mamie. He left for
home next morning, and Pm going to
see Il lawyer to bring him back"
