We have just received some of the
spring novelties in dress patterns, in

In the new changeable silks we have
very choice line, both in plains and
figures.
In printed indias we have splendid
silk at 45c, and very choice line at
74c and S5c.
In black dress goods our stock is ex-
ceptionally complete, and every express
and freight train brings new things to
add to its luster. We may quote at 75c
an exquisite quality of black sicilian, Al
inches wide, as heavy as board, and a
quality usually sold at $1.25.
In colored dress goods we have line
at 25c that is matchless in value.
AT 35c we offer specially line OF Sc
inch, all wool camel's hair stripes, with
long shaggy camel's hair; goods worth
621ac.

A inch striped, plaid and plain, foreign
and domestic; goods that are phenome-
nally cheap.
Our lines at 75c and 81 in striped
plaids, plains and fancies, are worth
your while looking at; cash buys our
goods and sells them, and he generally
has great power both ways.

MEASURING THE RAIN.
Observer Franklin Talks About the
Guages.

Observer Franklin Talks About the
Guages.
In consequence of the statements made
regarding the supposed inaccuracy of
the local weather bureaus reports of the
rainfall, HERALD reporter asked OBJ
server Franklin yesterday about the
matter.
II see," he said, ''that writer in the
HERALD this morning claims that my
report of rainfall is incorrect because my
guage is on the top of building, instead
OF on the ground. Experiments show
that the fall does not decrease per cent
for every 100 feet of elevation. The
weather bureau has never claimed that
the top of building was the best place !;
but in city it is generally the only
available spot. My guage is about 65
feet above the ground, and should say
that Germain's and Ducommun's were
about the same.
II have not got Mr.. Ducommun's
ready, but Mr.. Germain's and mine
show the following results His for the
storm marks 80 inch and mine .85; his
for the season shows 2.7S and mine 290
inches.
AS IuaIteT Ol ldcJ gauge SQOulQ
be exposed in the open country, but in
default OF that a fiat roof is the next
best place.
''In 1SSS-89 I gave a gauge to Mr..
German, who placed it on his packing
house onAlameda street; another to Mr..
Burton, who put it on his residence on
Bunker hill, and another to the South
ern Pacific company. Burton's and
mine gave the same results, Germain's
showed less than either Burton's or
mine, while the Southern Pacific COM
pany's showed an excess over all the
others.
"The policy OF the weather bureau has
been where it is possible to locate the
gauges in parks or in open ground
in the suburbs of cities on the level;
this is now being considered as regards
Los Angeles, and is simply question of
expense and locality.
f'The people will compare the local
bureaus reports with those of the re-
ports shown in the weekly crop sum-
mary from outside points and those of
the Southern Pacific company, they will
see that all come very near agreeing"

GROKER Is ENGLISH.

The British press and people have
been most Outspoken in their condem-
nation of the Mckinley bill, in particu-
lar, and the protection policy, in general.
Under our protective policy we are man
ufacturing more and more our own necess-
tiles and luxuries which we used to pur-
chase in England, and our own working
men instead of the foreigners receive the
wages for the labor in the manufacture
of the articles. The profits remain here
for the benefit of our own people. The
Englishman sees his most profitable
market, the United States, supplied by
other persons,-the people of the United
States. Consequently his selfish motive
for gain leads him to fight through his
press, by his subscriptions and by his
mass meetings, the Mckinley bill. The
friends of Protection have viewed these
violent attacks with pleasure for they
rebound against the British people with
far more force than they strike the
Americans. These attacks have served
to draw the American eye to the deplor-
able condition of the English laborer, to
his poor wages and his hard lot. He is
compared with our well-fed, well clothed
and well housed workingmen. Every
comparison strengthens Protection, and
the chance for England to fill the Ameri-
can market grows less and less. The
attacks, which are gladly reproduced by
the American press, have aroused the
American spirit of enquiry and have
caused our people to Investigate the
system of Free Trade and Protection,
as represented in England and America;
and England's pet system sees itself far
Their and farther from American soil.
A Liverpool, England journal has, at
last, discovered that silence is, indeed,
golden. 1t warns the British press that
if they wish to further the principles of
Free Trade of which they are so proud,
they must hold their tongues. 1t fur
ther says IF Mr.. Cleveland is after all
defeated it will be largely owing to the
too loudly and indiscreetly expressed
sympathy proceeding from these
Shores"
The attacks on the American system
of Protection are for the advancement of
British interests fully as much when
coming from Grover Cleveland who, on
these shores, is guarding England's pet,
Free Trade, as when coming from the
English editor.

oIRoUMsrANrIAL EVIDENCE

Apropos of the Borden case, permit
me to give an instance of circumstantial
evidence from my own experience.
In 1858. l being a missionary among
the Cherokee Indians, a half breed Chero-
kee, George Sanders, borrowed one of my
horses to 90 to a store near the Arkansas
line, on condition that he would get him
shod. The horse, when he took him,
had the near forefoot bare, the off fore
foot with half shoe, both hind feet with
old shoes without corks.
About midnight was awakened by a
succession of whoops and the galloping
of a horse round and round my house Ia
log cabin. The horse had leaped the
low fence in coming and going, and had
left tracks corresponding exactly to the
shoeing of the horse had loaned the
day before. George Sanders was a trusty
young man. and was deeply grieved at
this evidence of a drunken spree. | went
to his home in the morning. He was in
bed, though it was late. When he came
out | asked him where my horse was.
He said in the stable, adding, II was
home so late that didn't bring him
back" Didn't you stop at the house
as you came by?" mo" "But there
are Charley's tracks all around the house
Just as they were when you mounted him
yesterday afternoon" "But 1 got him
shod," replied Sanders. Sure enough
we found the horse rough shod; foul
heavy shoes with corks.
George returned with me about quar-
ter of a mile, and looking at the tracks
said, Eyes, that is just as he was shod.'
As he was about to return we saw al
Indian coming down the road. hailed
him. He stopped, and examined hi
horses feet, and called George and bad'
him do likewise The shooting was iden
teal with that described above. L sale
nothing, but the rider asked what want
ed, / said, Nothing more now" He
then asked if any one came around my
house during the night, and confessed
that it was he. The poor fellow wa
soon after killed in a drunken brawl.-
