The work of fitting up Reedy Island
as an adjunct to the Breakwater quar-
I antien Station Of the L. 5. Marine Hos
pital Service has begun. The pier will
be 200 feet long and will be parallel to
the channel, 1t will be about HOO feet
, from the island and there will be con-
| structed a sort Of II gangway or pas
| sapeway from the island to the pier.
Upon the pier will be erected the
structures suitable for Il disiEfectliig
plant. The pier will be built in the
channel, which is about twenty-four
feet deep and through which MI the big
ships coming into this port pass. The
ships will he brought alongside OF The
| pier and the disiniection and fumiga-
ton of the ship will be done there with
| out much difficulty and with eXpedi-
tiun. The baggage will be removed to
the pier and disiniected.

When the fitting up of Reedy Island

Tue ships will be stopped at the mouth

patients on board they will proceed i'm

Delaware City in the western part Of
the Delaware, with Il deep channel
within a thousand feet from it to the
eastward and a channel of good width
and depth TO the westard. The Govern
ment owns half of the island and will
probably purchase the other half.

IL is very probable that some

comma shaped microbes may be found
in the United States this year year.
The comma shaped fellows mean chol-
era. The surest preventive of cholera
Is cleanliness. House cleaning this
year should lie most thoroughly done,
and we suggest tn the good housewife
that Il coat of Chiffon Paint for inside
work will not Only beautify the home,
but will kill any stray comma-shaped
microbe that by any misfortune may
lind its way into the house. We sup.
pose that almost any kind of paint
would kill cholera microbes and per-
haps if that were the only object in
painting, some of the cheap paints that
contain benzine in such liberal quanti-
ties would be rs good, but we think
that while you are using paint as a
preventive of cholera, it is well to use
the Chiffon, not because it will more
microbes than any other paint, but be-
cause it will last longer, keep brighter,
and look better than any paint you can
use. Get a pound "a and see for your
self. Chiffon Paint Co., New York or

An Interesting Statement from
Big CLOTHING House..

If you let it cost You a cent for railroad fare to
and from the city to buy your Spring Clothes the
fault is your OWL. Your neighbors let us pay the
fare, and they make money by it.
So announces the best and greatest of Clothing
Stores-Oak Hall.
The best and greatest Clothing store is the Store
that makes the goods it sells in quantities big enough
to get the inside track of prices for cloths and every
thing else that goes into the Clothing. We do It.
We make more than most wholesale houses that sell
to stores to sell again-as much as any of them, with
out exception.
Good Clothing is one result-good making is
another. There's a fearful lot of hidden bad work
and stuff in much Clothing. There's no way to be
rid of it but the one-doing ones own manufacturing.
Still another important result of our manufacturing
low prices-the lowest of prices. There's a fearful
expense slice slips away uselessly to pay the profit to
the intermediate, who just sells the Clothing. We
put our goods on our counters at the prices stores pay
for them. We sell you a single suit at the rate stores
nay for twenty or fifty. We don't sell without a profit.
We don't add two profits, that's all. But that's a
good deal to you.
By that you'll understand how we may pay rail
road fare and still sell at the lowest prices, and give
you better qualities.
A good $40 suit instead of a cheap stuff for $40.
A good SI2 suit instead of a $40 suit sold for S12.
A good SIS suit-good enough to be $18 or $50
elsewhere.
The sun never shone on a finer stock of Clothing
than we have this Spring.

Tobacco "worth Its Weight in Silver"
According to John Aubrey, who
wrote celebrated work on "the very
queere Indian weede," there was g
time when tobacco was worth its
weight In silver. Among other things
Aubery says: "Sir Walter Raleigh
was the first that brought tobacco
into England, and in our parts
North Wilts-it came first in fashion
through Sir Walter Long. They had
silver pipes, but commoners used a
walnut she'll. II was then
sold for its weight in silver. / have
heard some Of our old yeomen neigh
bors say that when they went tc
Chippenham to market they always
culled out their shiliings to lay in
the scales against the tobacco Now
the customers of it are among the
greatest that his majesty hath"

Get the Genuine.

If you suffer with lame back, espe- cially in the morning, ALLCoCK's PLAs- TIERS are sure relief.
 If you cannot sleep try an ALLCoCK PLASTER, well up between the shoulder blades - often relieves - sometimes cures. Try this before you resort to opiates.
 If any of your muscles are lame joints stifi-ieel as if they wanted oiling -or if you suffer with any local pains or aches, these plaeters will cure you.
 If you use them once you will realize why so many plasters have been made in imitation of them. Like all good things, they are copied as closely as the law allows. Don't be duped by taking an imitation when it is as easy to get the genuine.
 If you always insist upon having ALL COCKS POROUS PLAsTERs and never ac- cept a substitute, you will not be dis appointed.

SAN DIEGO COUNTY, ARIZ.
Arizona May Yet Have a Coast
 Line.
San Diego Dissatisfied With Home Treatment Wants to Be
 Annexed.

Mir. M. Hughes of San Diego, the gen. tleman who proposes to start foundry here, arrived in the city yesterday. He says there is a strong feeling in San Diego in favor of the annexation of San Diego county to Arizona. It has been aroused by the failure of Governo Markham to sign the bill appropriating $l50,00J for a sea wall at San Diego. The people of the Bay city are forced to the conclusion that they have nothing to hope for from the state government which has always unjustly discrlmin- ated in favor of Los Angeles.
 A meeting will be held at San Diego next week at which plan of annexa. ton will be formulated and immediate. ly aitsrward delegates will be sent to Phpnix to arouse an interest here.
 San Dlegans believe that conditions are favorable for their transfer from California to Arizona. They say it will solve the question of state division in California and will receive the approval of all who are opposed to division. The contest over the capital will also furnish them a weapon to compel consent to the annexation scheme. The fight is likely to be SO close that San Diego county can determine whether or not San Jose shall be the capital and the plaI therefore is to make terms with either San Jose or Sacramento which shall result in giving to Arizona rich aud fertile California county, a stretch of seacoast and the best natural harbor in the world.

Some of the Most Valuable Come from
 California.
 It is on record that the most valuable collection of blacl, pearls in the world is owned by the empress of Austria.
 A black pearl necklace worn lately by a noble English lady at grand enter tainment was estimated to be worth one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars, and there was but single TOW of gems.
 At the present time black pearls com mand exorbitant prices. Some very valuable ones are found in Lower Cali fornia; such specimens are rare and costly. Next to these in estimation are deep blue pearls, and seldom is it that such can be obtained at any price.
 The story runs that'a valuable col Lection of pearls was at one time found in the river Conway, in North Wales, and among them, as is gravely chron- icled, was a stool pearl, in form and size resembling a button mold, and weigh ing seventeen grains. It IS added that a gentleman named Wynn was the happy owner. To emphasize this &C., count it is further stated that Conway pearl is to this day part and parcel, so to speak, of the royal crown of Eng land. having been presented to the
