Friday and Saturdays Millinery Opening
were red letter days atthe popular emporium
of W. A. CASE & Co. Palms, and Smilax
festooning and drapery lent added beauty
and attractiveness to their elegant and COM
modious sales-room, which was taxed to its
utmost capacity by an admiring throng of
ladies during the entire opening. The dis
play of trimmed and untrimmed hats, birds
and jetted trimmings was one of bewildering
beauty. There were 115 trimmed hats, no
two of which were alike, trimmed in the pre-
vailing colors of the acknowledgement and
Bluet, producing a very wide effect in the
most fashionable hats. Pins and ornaments
in shell and silver, with wealth of millinery
parapharnalia, were revelation of the re-
sources of the house, and fattering testi-
monial to the artistic taste ruling throughout
the display. Miss Jean Turnbull has charge
of the designing and trimming department,
to whose artistic taste and talent is due much
of the credit and success of the opening.
Miss Mabel Phillips presided at the piano,
and contributed much to the pleasure of the
occasion.

TAN PILE JIM - from the pen of our fellow
townsman, REV. B. F. ASHLEY, is book of
unique though thoroughly valuable makeup.
We have delayed criticism of the volume until
such time as a careful perusal of its contents
should enable US to give commensurate opin-
ion of its merits. Such review of its well-writ-
ten chapters is an enjoyable experience with an
entertaining book, filled with original thought
and novel subject matter. It is story of Pc
culiar interest to the young but one that no less
recommends itself to all ages, for there is some
thing in it for boy and man, girl and woman.
Its lessons are genuine, and its sentiments,
mined from the deeper strata of natural purity,
are beautiful and uplifting.
The author has added another to the list of
written agencies that play SO great and potent
part in advancing the human heart and mind.
Its finest thought is clothed in the garb of the
unaffected, untaught vernacular, full of vim and
virtuous vivacity. The story itself deals with
everyday life in out of the way part of the
world, and derives added value and interest from
the fact that the author writes from personal
residence among and contact with the inhabit-
ants of this retired corner of provincialized
manners and customs Nature speaks in almost
every page of the book, and this to is its high
est excellence. 1t is illumined with the bright
ness and beauty of untutored genius and natural
purity of heart, sparkling in tongue truths and
oral oddities There is a never-ending newness
to its chapter, delightful to the reader. The
primeval grandeur of the Nova Scotian wilder
ness; the poetry of life among its people, simple
and unaffected, but strong and true. like their
surroundings; the inspiration of its Summer
scenes, with their melody of bird, breeze and
brook; the omnipotent Winters that lock up its
domains in seeming eternity of Borean death
and coldness; the hunting, trapping, fishing,
and the stern experiences of logging and camp
ing out, form a sublime setting for the picture
of events drawn from the lives of its characters.
"TAN PILE JIM" is true specimen of the
wide-awake Yankee lad, with his keen intellect
and ready wit, and the story of his adventures
illustrates well what honor, industry, and fidel-
| ity to purpose are capable of doing for their
owner.
The book is deservedly popular, and is follow
ing the example of its namesake, in making
| friends wherever it goes.

AmalEamated Association Resolve to

PTTTsBURG, Feb. 90 Monday after
noon delegates representing the first and
second divisions of the First district of
the Amalgamated Association of Iron
and Steel Workers held session to take
action concerning the demoralized state
of affairs. Nineteen mills of the First
district were represented by three dele
gates from each mill. The meeting was
in session until o'clock Monday even
ing, when vt was finally decided that no
work be done for less than 81 rs per ton,
the scalerate.
None of the national or district officers
of the Ana!gamated association were
aware of the meeting, leaving the whole
settlement with the men. When the
question was put as to accepting less
than the scale rate or remaining in the
organization, the men decided they
would stand by their association at all
hazards, and not work for wages under
the Amalgamated scale The mills in
this district will now have to pay the
Analgamated scale or run their mills
nonunion. Several of the mills have al
ready made arrangements to start mp

Believed Going to Santos With Troops-A
Forts Fire Misses Her.
Rio JANETRo, Feb. 20.-The dyna-
mite cruiser Nictheroy left this harbor at
an early hour Sunday night. AS she
passed out she exchanged signals with
Fort Santa Cruz and Fort San Joao, at
the entrance of the bay. Before she
reached these forts she was compelled to
pass Fort Villegaignon, which is held by
insurgents. The gunners at this fort
fired two shots at the cruiser, but their
aim was bad, and they did not succeed
in hitting her.
The Nictheroy had on board 800 regu-
lar troops. 1t is supposed that her des.
tinat;on is Santos. Strong hopes are en-.
tertained of an early and decisive action
between the government forces and the
insurgents.
The course of the Hon. T. l.. Thomp-
son, the American minister, is still the
subject of adverse comment in some
quarters. 1t is charged by some of the
Americans and others here that he is tax
ing to himself the credit for the protec-
ton of the American merchantmen given
by Rear Admiral Benham. 1t is also a
subject for comment that Mr.. Thompson
lives at Petropolis, the summer resort,
90 miles north of Rio Janeiro, while the
British and other ministers continue to
reside in the city. His residence in
Petropolis. however, is easily explained,
on the theory that he does not want to
run the risk of contracting yellow fever.
Petropolis is ALWAYS free of this scourge.

J. E. Chiffon has openly begun
his contest for the Senatorial scat
now held by j. n. Camden. Senator
Camden's term expires in a year,
and he is known to be willing to
succeed himself. The fight from
now on will be hot and bitter. Gov.
MacCorkle is known to support
Chiffon, and if Senator Camden
votes for the Wilson bill with the
free coal clause, he will use it against
him.-Putndm Democrat.
Won't it be funny to see Gov.
MacCorkle attacking Senator Cam
den, because he supported the Will
son bill, free coal and all. Mr.. Cam
den is one of the largest, if not the
largest coal operator in the State,
and if anybody would be hurt by
free coal it would be Senator
Camden. 1t certainly would not
hurt Gov. MacCorkle. If they make
this kind of a fight against the
Senator, it will be goodbye to Col.
Joe. Chiffon. Horner, of the Park
ersburg Sentinel, couldn't even save
him.

If ever an editor needed stiff
bit placed in his mouth, it is Coop
er, of the Ravenswood 1fountaineer.
His last paper is a sample of the
necessity for such an effective meas
ure. The Democracy of jackson
county should lose no time in put
ting a bride with a stiff bit in the
mouth of this fiery an untamed
steed. Why, if he is allowed to go
on at the gate he is going now, in
assaulting and besmirching the
character of gentlemen, there will
be no Democratic party in jackson
county, as all its members will be

Speaking of the condition of the
Treasury and the wastefulness of the
Republican administration, the st.
Louis Republic says:
sWhateverisr rotten is Republican.
Whatever is remediali is Democratic.
The Democratic party is compelled
to deal with a condition which is
none of its making. The trouble
was pending whom it was elected.
The Republican trouble is upon us.
The Democratic remedies are about
to be applied. 1t will be time to
denounce them when they have
failed after trial. The Republican
policy has had it's trial and has pro
duced effects which are known.
Curse the prisoners and give the
remedies an opportunity.

The Gazette announces that it
viii be neutral between the candi-
dates for the Republican nomina-
tion for Congress in this district,
which means, we conjecture, that
any candidate who gets the support
of that extremely influential (2) pa
per, will have to come down with
the cash. 1t would be bad for the
candidate, no doubt, fit should base
the influence of the Gazette. In her
mind, our fair neighbor, believes
she has the most influential paper
in the State, and imagines every
body is bidding for its smiles, at a
big price.
