DON'T RUN CHANGES.

It is easy enough for anybody to tell
whether a garment of clothing IS good
or bad after he has worn it, but it is dif-
ficult to tell before. Cheap in price too
often means inferior IN quality. Such
is not the case when you buy of us.
Whatever you get here you can feel as
sured is the best that the money will
buy. We know the kind Of Clothes We
sell, and we know that they are GOOD,
for we make every stitch ourselves. We
know that the cloths we use are GOOD
and will wear well and not change color.
We know that the trimmings are GOOD,
and that they will stand hard wear and
abuse. We know the cutters and tailors
we employ to be as GOOD as can be
found, and we therefore know that the
garments turned out by them are never
skimped in any particular.
LOOK and see the SUITS we have
HERE. You will at once find how need
less it is to be going TO tailor. Never
have we had stock so bright and so full
of really meritorious garments-Clothes
made as they should be-handsomely
made, beautifully finished. and perfect
in fit Impossible to tell them from
tailor-made. so closely do they resem-
BILE. The difference between the price
the tailor asks and theprice we get is in
deed thing worth thought and con-
sideration in such times as these. We
can save you half if not more. Think
Of that
GOOD CASHMERE, CHEyIOT,
and WORSTED SUITS at $40. GOOD
KERSEY and MELTON OVERCOATS
at $l0r-garments worth 50 to SO more,
but take your pick at $40. Weare going
TO sell 'em.
SUITS and OvRRCOATS at $3.50,
S13. and S15-and such a collection,
such variety. Better than were ever
before offered at these prices. Every
new shade, every new cut, every new
shape-handsomely made and finished.
You can save money by investing few
dollars in them.

Chinese Registering,

There are thirty-three Chinese resid
ing in the twelfth internal revenue
district, and up to Tuesday last Col. ]
d. Lacir, deputy collector of the district
had received the certificates of twenty.
three. According to an act of congress
all Chinese must register before May 5,
1893, in order that those here now can
be identified at any future time. This
will aid the government in capturing
and sending back the coolies who are
being smuggled across the Canadian
border, as any Chinaman found not
registered after the above date can be
shipped out of the country. No fee is
charged.
Ying Lee, Freeland's solitary rep
resentative of the race, registered yester-
day, and in conversation with a TRI-
BUNE reporter stated that very POM
pous person whom he did not know
called upon him last week with papers
to sign and asked for fee of $5. As
Ying has been in the United States
twenty-seven years and is thoroughly
posted upon all laws relating to his
countrymen and can read and write
English he did not allow the Mclean
man to fake him.

ANOTHER SUICIDE.
Hungarian Becomes Demented and
Sewers His Throat With n Razor.

The residents of Yorktown were
thrown into a state of excitement on
Monday upon learning that suicide
had been committed in their midst. A
Hungarian named Mike Sovel was the
unfortunate victim of self destruction.
The Standard says he had been on a pro-
tracted debauch last week and acted
very strangely since. Sometimes at
night he would rise up out of his sleep,
commence crying and imagine he saw
all kinds of disagreeable apparitions.
Other times he would become sullen
and remain perfectly quiet. Yesterday
morning he went to work, but returned
home shortly afterward and fingered
about the house until half past ten
O'Clock when he went up stairs, unlock
ed his trunk, seized razor and drew it
across his throat.
After committing the rash act he again
placed the razor in the trunk, covered
with blood, locked it and put the key in
his pocket, where it was afterward
found. Twenty minutes later his soul
was waited into eternity. Sovel was a
married man with two children. His
family is in the old country. He had
been in America six years.

HICKS FORECASTS.
What the Weather for the Month of May
Is Likely to Be.

Is Likely to Be.
Indications are that May will open
with cool, fair weather in most parts
with frosts in northern directions. A
warm wave will pass eastward across the
country, giving rise to reactionary storms,
central on and next to the Sd. After a
few days of cooler, clear weather, about
the 9TH it will grow warmer in the west,
and during the 8th to l1th the warmth
will increase as it advances eastward
over the continent, resulting in many
storms about the Sth, 9th and 10th.
There is marked tendency to frost,
as rule, from about the 10th to 10Th of
May, especially when storms occur on or
just preceding those dates. But the in
dications for this month are that this frost
period will reach its crisis at the close of
reactlonary storms central about the
10th. The new moon on that day, and
and the equinox of Mercury on the 10th,
will increase and prolong storm condi-
tions, and add to the probabilities of
frost after the storms in northerly
regions
From the 18th to 22d fall marked
storm period, the crisis of which will
likely be reached about 22d. A very
warm wave will pass over the entire
country during the period, and danger
GUS storms are liable to result Cloud
formations and other storm indications
should be prudently watched. Eastery
to southerly winds, sultry air, with low
and falling barometer, are certain har-
bingers of coming disturbances. After
storms pass, if winds continue from
southerly points, or the barometer sui
lenly refuses to rise, look for a repet-
tion of wind, rain and thunder in cycles
of twelve and twenty-four hours, until
winds shift permanently to westerly,
and the barometer moves decidedly up
ward.
About the 25th and Goth there will be
another rise in temperature, resulting in
reactionary storms, beginning of course,
first in the west, and appearing later and
later at points along their march to the |
east. Fix this fact well in your minds. |
You will soon learn by the plain indica-
tions when the storms are liable to be |
retarded, or to appear early in the pc
riods in your locality.
The last day of May is the center of
regular storm period, which runs into the
opening days of June. Full moon on
the 30th will tend to hasten develop
ments, SO that very warm wave will be
well defined, and on its way from the
west, attended by increasing storms, by
the closing hours of the month. The ef-
fects of the Venus equinox will be felt
in all the storms up to the middle of
May, hence there will be marked ten
dency to hard hailstorms, to excessive
and sudden changes from very warm to
very cool, increasing the probabilities of
frost after storms in all northerly
regions.

The Ereeland opera house has been
leased for the theatrical season of 1893 "a
by John j. Welsh, of this place, who
has been connected with the opera house
as assistant manager and in other capa-
cities for the past few years. As the
proprietor, Mr.. Yannes, intends to re-
model the house this summer, equip it
with comfortable chairs, put in an eleva-
ted floor, change the gallery and make
improvements to the stage, it may be
taken for granted that the house will be
literally patronized next season.
The new manager does not intend to
be left on any of the good things in the
show business that are coming through
this part of the state, and has seven
companies already booked. From this
it can be seen that he intends to make
it O success

MAKING CITIZENS.
An Act to Prevent Wholesale NaturaIiza-
tion of Foreigners.

An act relating to the naturalization
of aliens and prohibiting the payment Of
the expenses connected Herewith by
officers and members of political organi-
cations and by candidates has been pass
ed finally in the house and will soon
come up for third reading in the senate
Its chances of becoming law are very
good, as the wholesale manufacture of
citizens in the past few years has pro-
duced an unfavorable opinion of the
methods now used by both political par
ties and candidates. The bill is as fol-
lows:
Sec. l. On and after the passage of
this act it shall be unlawful for any Off
Ger or member of any committee or
organization of any political party, or
any candidate, or for any person in
behalf of said committee, organization or
candidate, to pay, or furnish the money
to pay the fees and expenses directly or
indirectly incurred by an alien in attend
ing upon any court for the purpose of
obtaining his naturalization papers.
Sec. 2. Any person violating the pro-
visions of the first section ct this act
shall, upon conviction in summary pro-
ceeding before any city magistrate, al
derman or justice of the peace, who are
hereby given jurisdiction to try said
offenders in summary way, for each
offense pay fine Of fifty dollars which,
when collected, shall be paid into the
county'treasury of the county wherein
the offense was committed.
Sec. 8. If any person convicted in the
manner prescribed in the second section
of this act, shall refuse or fail to forth
with pay the fine and costs to the
official before whom he is convicted,
or give satisfactory security to be ap-
proved by the said official to pay the
same within ten days, he shall be COM
