RICHMOND, Monday. Dec. 0. 1893.


In order TO exhibit fully what this
house is capable Of Going for Rich
mond and its people, we have ar
ranged to have an opening eXhibi
ton on Tuesday evening from the
hours Of 8 to TO O'Clock.
The exposition i'm its simplest
form speaks our readiness for Holt
day purchasers, and in order to
give this, so to say, house-warming
a tinge Of poesy, and to blend with
the beautiful panorama that will be
presented to your vision "the con-
cord of sweet sounds, " we have ar
ranged with Professor STEMS or
chestra to pour forth their best mu-
sic for the occasion.
Nothing is to be sold. You are
only invited to glance throughout
any part of the House.
With the opening Of Monday be-
gins a selling time that has not had
a calling for years. We have gath
cred stocks until they are over
reaching the capacity of even tins
big store. Half prices, quarter
prices, three-Quarter prces-from
the little things TO the great oHes~
we are forced 10 make.

CAN 1T BIZ POSSIBLE.

The Washington Post, I'm discussing the
probabilities OF the new prot ective tariff
free-trade bill passing Congress, has the
following TO say.
I'm the Senate there may be more trou-
BILE. Should the Finance Committee I'M
dertake the work OF framing an entire
new bill and allow hearings for this pur-
pose should the Alabama and the Lousi-
ana Senators combine, or should the Re-
publicans manifest a desire 10 delay ac-
ton. the path of the bill may not be al
together free from obstacles. II is ex-
pected, however, that any disposition to
delay shown by the Senators on the Dem
ocratic side will be met by an intiInation
from the President that it would be best
to pass the bill without unnecessary pro-
crastination. and it is also expected that
this intimation will be effective"
This is a very astounding statement
Can there be any foundation for it in fact?
Is it possible that Mr.. Cleveland would
attempt to exercise any coercion upon
senators TO compel them. to vote, not as
their judgment prompted, but as he de-
sires? The Times hopes most earnestly
that the senators and representatives
from Virginia, West Virginia. North Caro-
lima, Alabama, Georgia. and Louisiana will
demand that the same protection that is
given TO New England manufacturers
shall be extended to coal, iron. and sugar,
and it hopes that they will vote against
the bill in toto. Unless this is done we
are for free and unrestricted trade but
if the principle of protection is TO be
brought into the case at ALL then we in
sist that it shall be made to apply to us
equally with New Englanders. We refuse
to be robbed by them and then compelled
to sell our products in competition with
that trade of the world which the new
tariff bill aims at shielding them from.

because we are apt to think that dress
makers are heartless people who know
everything and won't tell, but they have
their troubles just the same as other folks.
An amateur dressmaker, however, de-
clares that she made for herself, with no
meutal wear or tear, the pretty costume

cloth and trimmed Ii with braid and red

two gathered ruffles of cloth. The long

LIE TEA.

LIE TEA.
Those who have bought some of the
cheap tea that has been sold in this coun-
try and have been disappointed by 1t have
wondered what was the matter with 1t.
The trouble with It is that 1t is ''lie tea
The Chirese government has discovered
that more Gle" tea has been sold by its
subjects than is profitable. The authorities
have issued a proclamation against the
manufacture of what is significantly known
as "lie tea." The document points out
that this soandalous practice has done
much to bring about the lsmented decline
in the tea trade, and declares that the au-
thorities are determined to put stop to 1t.
People ere warned not to make any tea e1-
cept from the genuine tea leaf; but,
says the proclamation, If any per-
son should disregard the warning
the punishment will be sevsre-namely,
transportation for life, for the maker, the
seller, the buyer and everybody else con-
oerned in the transaction, Any person
who may give information that will lead to
the detection of those carrying on this un-
lawful business will be handsomely re-
warded and "rcceive button of the fifth
class" The proclamation ends with an
assurance to tea dealers that hereafter they
need have no fear of sdulteration, as no
one will dare to disregard this official an
nouncement, although no provisions what
ever have been made for its enforcement.
LIE tea" is graphically descriptive. A
good deal of ''lie tea" has been sold in this
oouptry.
