EVERYTHING CHEAPER.
Result Of an Inquiry as TO the Prices Of Nee
essaries.

Sr. Ptrr. oct. 30.-The Dispatch has
made an inquiry into the retail prices OF
dry goods, footwear, groceries, hardware
furniture, clothing and drugs, before and
after the passage of the Mckinley bill.
which NAV be summed briefly as follows
The increase in tariff on dry goods has not
in any way caused corresponding increase
in the price. All except the very fines,
grades of material are lower.
The domestic manufacture in the mar
kets has improved 10 snclr wonderful ex-
tent that in quality and design none but an
expert can distinguish the difference be-
tween it and the imported article. Prices
have decreased in every grade of shoes.
While the price of groceries have IN great
majority of instances decreased there are
some articles of consumption that, on ac-
seount of partial failure in the crops, re-
main about the same in price. This is due
to unfayorable weather.
Clothing is cheaper, and there ia snch an
enormous demand for domestic goods that
there is great delay in getting orders filed
The quality and style of ready made cloth
ing is considerably better than ever before,
and better goods are selling cheaper than
the goods not so well made sold two years
ago. Never in the history of this country
has furniture been retaiiati at such low
figure as at the present time. Hardware
and drugs remain about the same.
The above statements are suhstaniiafed BY
figures obtained direct from the merchants
themselves and by interviews with promi-
nent Northwestern jobbers and retailers,
regardless of party.

Maine Bred PAGERS.

~. w. Thompson, in Turf, Farm and
Home.
One thing which attracts the attention
and comment of the breeders of Maine isihc
frequency with which Mainc-bred PAGERS
are dropping into the $50 list. The $50
list published in our Vol. ! Noted Maine
Horses, in 1874, contained no PAGERS, and
we believe the first Maincbred PAGER to
make "A record of 30 was Benny in 1854,
while up to the present time this season
seven Mairc-breh PAGERS have entered the
list, two with records of 2.2o or better. We
have imported no pacing strains, and can
only account for the fact in the same way
that it explained why Electioneer produced
no PAGERS, i. e., for the reason that none Of
his get were allowed to pace. IL the inch
nation was too strong to be- overcome, et
animal was thrown ont of training. 1t used
to be the practice in Maine to convert all
horses with the pacing inclination 10
the trotting gait. and for this reason,
partly at least, We find no PAGERS in the
30 list of Gen. Knox, or WinthroP
Morrill,, while il is well-known fact that
many of the get of either horse was broken
gated. and possibly many of them might
have been educated to go fast Mt the pace
if the attempt had been made. In the
second and succeeding generations the get
of Gen. Knox have shown an inclination
for the lateral gait with considerable he-
qucncy, and the logical conclusion il, that
had the PAGER been fashionable in the years
past. Names list of $50 PAGERS would have
been much longer one.

The Niagara River Swollen by Wind and
Flood Does Great Damage.

NIAGARA FAILS, v. y, Oct 2g.--The
Niagara river went on a rampage early this
morning. 1t did lot of damage here and
forced number of workmen to fee for
their lives.
The water begun to rise before o'clock
and in few hours was from 10 to ~ feet
higher in the gorge below the falls. 1t
swept over the docks of the Maid of the
Maid of the Mist on both Canadian and
American sides of the river 1t rushed in
the portal of the big hydraulic tunnel just
finished, driving the workmen out in a
hurry. These men are of the night gang
and had little warning. They just saved
the fools.
On the Canada side. however. a large
amount Of damage was done. large tun-
mel is under construction at Table rock, for
the new Canadian electric line. The wheel
pits are now between 80 and 20 feet, About
O'Clock the water broke over the barriers
and rushed into the wheel pits, filing them
up and sweeping the folls, ,lerrieks and all
the material away.
The yorkmen in the wheel pits were
warned in time, or there would hare been
a heavy loss of life. 1t will take week or
more TO pump out the pits and exeav ation-.
The damage il away up in the thousands
Large quantities Of logs and timber came
over the falls. The cause of the sudden
rise of water is the heavy west wind and
storms which have prevailed up the lakes.
