The Weather Today

PORTLAND, October 4, 1892.
NJ EVER has 50
4 v much thought
and originality
been devoted to the de-
signing and invention of
garments for children, and
never such care and
watchfulness to the de-
tails Of workmanship as
at present.
The best work of art
lists, designers and skilled
needleWorkers is utilized
in the production Of ba-
bies' clothing, and the re-
suit of it all is bewildering
and altogether satisfying,
A child dressed in a COM
plete outfit of these mod
ern garments is an object
of picturesque animation
that must arrest the atten-
ton Of every appreciative
observer.
The immense stock of
dresses, cloaks, sacques
and caps that is to be
seen now in our Infants
Outfits department is a
good deal larger and a
good deal prettier than
any line we've shown be-
fore and it has many nov
elites, some of them of
our own devising, that
should be seen by those
who have children from
two to five. years old to
provide for.
No use to attempt de-
scription, the only proper
way to get a comprehen-
sive idea of what it is like
is to come here and see it,
and that is what we
hope you'll do.

Captain A. G.. Weissert, the new COM
mander in chief, was born Aug. Z, 1943,
in Canton, O., and at the age of five was
taken by his parents to Wisconsin. He
is graduate of the Racine high school
and of the University of Michigan,
though his educational career was cut in
two by the war, and is now a leading
lawyer of Milwaukee. He volunteered
at the beginning of the war and was
rejected on account Of his youth; tried
it three more times and was rejected
each time for the same reason, but in
September, 1851, having completed his
eighteenth year, he secured a place in
the ranks Of the Eighteenth Wisconsin
infantry.
He participated in forty-two battles
and skirmishes, and was seriously
wounded in the last-the battle of Nash
vile. He was breveted captain for meri-
torious services, and President Lincoln
appointed him cadet at West Point,
but owing to disability caused by his
wounds he could not take the place. He

It was after the great battle Of Bull

The President will return to 1ndianapo-

son and his wife will reside in Indianap-
oils also, making their home with Gener-
al Harrison. Mrs. Mckee, with little
Benjamin and little Mary, will go to Bos-
tc after March 4th. Mr.. Mckee has es-

has built house there. General Harrison
may make them visitin the spring. DR..
Scstt Mrs. Harrison's brother, will live

remain in Washington with Lieutenant
and Mrs. Parker.
Mrs. Cleveland will return to Wash
ington with as happy anticipations as
such good reasons to indulge. The hold
she has upon the admiration and affec-
tion Of the women of this broad land has
probably never been equalled, and the
satisfaction they will feel in seeing hor
again as mistress Of the white house is
unbounded. She has achieved distinc-
ticn in the social world Of New York
City, but is not spoiled by the fattering
attentions that have been lowered upon
her In every direction She has mingled
in society there much more extensively
than she did here, and she will como
back to the white house equipped with
experience which will be most valuable
to her in the enlarged sphere Of ac-
ton in which she will be the moving
spirit.

Industries VIII Thrive.

NEW YORK., Nov. 1s.-Gen. W. II.
Jackson, prominent Democratic leader
in Tennessee, who presided at the con-
vention that nominated Judge Turney
for Governor, arrived in Now York last
night. Speaking about the resultand the
effect Of the Presidential election he said
to-day:
"Cleveland's election will give very
great impetus to the industries and de-
velopment Of the South. During his
administration the South prospered as at
no time before or since. But the Repub-
lioan policy and the menace of the pas
sage of the forco bill tended to retard the
growth of industries, kept out invest
ment and unsettled confidence in the fu-
ture of the South. Since the election
have heard men say confidence Is restored
and tbs industries will thrive. North
ern capital is largely invested in South
ern States. It has been suspected that
the iron manufacturers of Pittsburg are
interested in seeking to injure their
Southern rivals, aTld also in having the
force bill used for that purpose.
electionf I think he won because he
gave an honest administration F; because
the people believed in him. believe
that he is tho only man who has occupied
the Presidency since tho foundation Of
the government who ever had real con-
Germ for and interest in the great masses
of the laboring people of America. That
is why he won the nomination over the
politicians, and the election.
"The Peoples party failed to develop
much strength In the South, because it,
like all other offshoots, arc looked upon
as landmarks to the Republican party"

There were over 200 members present.
During the several service the church

preparatory service of one hours dura

were sxhortsd to carefully and prayer
fully examine themselves for participa-
tion in the solem mites to follow.
A number of long tables covered with
white clothes were arranged ON both sides
and in front of the pulpit, and upon
them wore placed knives and ~f0rkks,
spoons, bowls, &C., but no plates. Nearly
all tue women and girls wore plain back

elders aross and read tho 18Th chapter Of
St. John, and made an explanation of the
DuukArds' mode Of worship, quoting paas
ages Of Scripture to justify all that was
about to bs done. The Lord himself, he
said, had set the example of feet wash
ing, and they could not do otherwise than
follow it. They were taught that "He
(Christ) was the same yesterday, to day,
aud forever" and consequently if he
were present in body now he would do
Just as He did when on earth. The act
of feet washing may appear foolish to

of grace but there was Scriptural author.

things and means were often said and
