One man who drew prize at the
Catholic levee will probably be obliged to
take to himself wife, or purchase a car
load of cigars at once. The circums tanccs
are like this. A few days ago little fair
haired maiden went into his store and re-
quested that he place his name upon her
book for vote Quite lot of joking
followed and he finally said that if he
drew prize he would get married. Sure
enough at the closing night he was over
loved to learn that good luck had granted
him visitation and he drew a handsome
| bedroom set. Now his friends say that
the nuptial knot must be tied or he must
say cigars loud enough for all the boys
to hear. ........

the Augusta House, he gave Mr.. William
Willard, the artist his first sitting for
portrait The study is all in greys and is
just as Mr.. Willard left it after devoting
just 80 minutes to it, Yet one looking at
it is brought face to face with the original.

WHAT BUSINESS MEN SAY.

FRANK CRocKER. treasurer OF NJ Strickland
Gncorporated)- "Russet shoes will be all the
go this winter. The demand for them seems
to be as popular as ever They will be made
of pigskin and will be practically waterproof,
so that a man will not have to bother with
rubbers. In this we are only following the
fashion of our friends across the water, who
have been wearing russets all the year round
for a long time back. We Yankees call our
selves pretty smart sort of people, but in the
matter of shoes the English can give us
point or two. although our goods have a bet
ter and finer finish. The French set the
fashions ON women's wear, but they are no
good for men; the Frenchman has a small
foot and is proud of it ana likes to see it off
with high heel, but its entirely too effeminate
for an American. / was in Jamaica three
years ago at the shoe exhibition where our
firm took the gold medal, and 1 saw splen-
did display made by an Austrian firm. Their
show case alone cost $4,000; think of it,
enough to build respectable house"
CLARENCE CoRsoN, cashier of the Columbia
National Bank-'I am off next week on nv
vacation. 1 am going up to the neighborhood
ofRominy, i'll West Virginia, where expect to
get some good fishing and forget figures and
balances for the time being. 1t is great
country for fishing and shooting, but it is a
little too early this year to get any shooting,
although 1 expect that there will be fishing
enough to make up for it. Am fond of fish,
ing and shooting? Well, rather''
WILLIAM CRAIG, of Craig d Harding
Business has picked up very well this week
and we have been doing more during the past
few days than at any time for some weeks
past It looks as if there was revival and
hope it is going to last"
H. G. BURCH, manager of the Ebbitt
House-"We have all our rooms rented for
the encampment. SO we cannot complain just
at this time about business being slack. l
suppose we must expect things to be little
quiet after Congress adiourns, but now that
the tariff question is settled there ought to be
less hard time talk
NJ. STRICKLAND, manager Of the Burt &
Packard Co.-"I am apt to take a conserva-
tive view of things, so when am asked to
give my opinion as to the amount Of money
the Pythian Encampment will bring to the
city do not put it higher than $500, 900. A
great many people think it will run up to a
million, and if it does i will be glad to admit
that my estimate was Wrong.''
