II T is such a simple
i thing to furnish a
house prettily and
artistically now
adays at a really trifling
outlay Of money! Beauty
and art are so cleverly
combined in all the new
materials and fabrics for
interior decoration, such
taste and elegance is put
into even the cheapest
grades, and they all look
SO well, that you have
only to determine how
much money IS to be spent
for the entire outfit and
leave the rest I'd us

We'd like to show you

you the drapery news to

rooms. Of these dainty

This makes the cost of

there's nothing better or

GOES TO JOHNNY REILLY ,v


grafton Inspector
Wherever John J. Reilly. the tailor and
active young Democratic politician made his
appearance this morning he was warmly
grasped by the hand and congratulations of
unmistakablc heartiness were whispered In
his ear by his fellow Democrats who had
heard that the object of their greetings had
been appointed to succeed the late J. j.
Monaghan as Inspector of Immigration at
Philadelphia.
But 1t was all mistake, at least prema-
ture. Mr. Reilly is still plain JOHNNY
and he has not yet authority to prefix On
spcctor" to his name. The report of his ap-
pointment undoubtedly arose from a gather.
ing of politicians at Pottsvile last night. at
which it seems to have become pretty well
understood that ex-Congressman James b.
Reilly will have more to say in regard to the
appointment than anyone else in this county
and that if Schuylkill county Democrat
gets it John J. Reilly will be the man.
/ A number of the young Democratic leader.
of the county were applicants for the posi-
/ ton, but during the past few days it settled
down to a battle between johnny Reilly anC
eX-Clerk of the Courts John J. Toole, so fa
as the Schuylkill countians were concerned
The conference of last night how
ever, seems to have knocked out Toole'
chances. 1t is intimated that Toole will
he cared for in some other manner
probably getting the office of Count.

existed only on the statute books, but it j
said the county authorities believe there
now sufficient necessity to put it in fore
again.

TURKEY DAY.



To-day Thanksgiving Day being a legal
holiday the banks and many other places Of
business were closed Many more people
were upon the streets than there have been
for some time certainly since the collicries
commenced working full time. But while it
is holiday and is observed by the great
majority of the people, it is not such a one as
arouses a general observance other than a
wholesale attack upon turkey.
IfTurkey, the Mohammcdau, ever suffers
what turkey, the fowl, was subjected to in
shenandoah to-day she will never again be
able to treat her Christian Armenians as she
has in the past. More turkeys fell to slaughter
during the past few days than the market
has ever recorded before. But this has not
been solely due to the coming of Thanks
giving Day, but was due in a great measure
to a slash in prices that created the demand
for the bird of the day"
The slash also had victims in the farmers
who for years have had a corner in the fowl
Note the engagement in which the turkey
trust fell Last year the farmers brough
/ their turkeys into the town and held them a
prices ranging from l6 to 22 cents pound
/ They had no real competition, as hom
dealers were too slow This year, however
many local dealers flooded the town witt
live fowl brought from Western Pennsyl
yania and other distant points. When tn
farmers arrived with their loads they wer
staggered by the pyramids of coops on side
walks and in stores, and found that loca
dealers were selling the fowl at from 10 to l
cents a pound. That is why the people ar
to-day giving thanks that the farmers do nc
rule the roost

But He IL Admonishcd Not to Repeat
His U~tterances.
DENVER, Dec. "a verdict Of not
guilty was brought in at 1870 q. m. in
the case of Rev. F. F. Passmore, who
was before a special committee for fall
styling and disseminating dissensions
among the Methodist ministry. While
acquitting the preacher. the committee
expresses the opinion that the specif-
cations in evidence show that the de-
PENDANT has INDUCED in unwise, I'M
charitable and indiscreet utterances in
his use Of personalities concerning his
brethren and admonish him ito desist
from utterances concerning his breth-
ern which would arraign their Christian
characters"
The language used by Rev. Passmore
in q published letter was the basis Of
the charges against him, and was -
follows:
~"I find the Methodist Episcopal
church, in her bishops, ministry and
press, with few exceptions, has joined
hands with gamblers, Sabbath breakers,
saloonkeepers and harlots."

RATES MUST BE MODIFIED.

Intsrstate Commission Decide~ . Great
Northern and Rock Island Case.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The interstate
commerce commission announced its
decision in the cases brought by E. J.
Daniels against the Rock Island and the
Crest Northern railways involving dis
ordinations in rates between Sioux
City, Sioux Falls and Duluth.
The word cline" as used in the stat
ute, the commission rules, means a
physical line and not . mere business
arrangement and carriers are prohibited
BY charging through rates on traffic
over . line formed by connection Of two
or more roads which ara less as q whole
than the rates in force on lake traffic
carried under similar conditions in the
same direction over either Of the con-
stituent roads in such lines. The
decision sets forth that the law requires
regulation Of railroad charges according
to the ascertained rights Of persons and
places; it is not an agency for the regu.
lation Of trade by enabling shippers
and communities to do business or to
put them on even terms with rivals
more remote from competitive territory.
and continues:
1.-THE relative Of equality enjoyed by
the statutes requires substantial modif.
cation Of the present disparity in rates
from Chicago to Sioux City and Sioux
Falls and under special conditions such
disparity in rates from Duluth to Sioux
CITY and Sioux Falls shhuld> be diScon.

State Auditor Nipple states that the
man who says hs a give the exact
shortage in the Taylor ~defalcation is
fooIhsrdy and unreliable. The appraisal
is not yet completed aud ever when 1t is
no man can tell what the shortage will
be. Some OF the property, such as notes
secured by second mortgages and mining
stocks cannot be properly appraised
until they can find some reliable
information about them. Much prop
erty in forty counties and four states
has been decided to the state, and can.
not be sold on execution and the state
officers cannot sell SO that it will be
months and perhaps years before it is
al. Strengthened out and disposed Of.
Mr. Nipple expects to see the year close
with ABOUT sl28,OOO in cash returned,
perhaps there is about $4,000 clear real
property accepted, or will be, which will
make 100000 clear restitution. The
balance Is indefinite. There is much
property which will yield the state
something, perhaps a great deal. There
are also notes for over $4,000 which
may be paid in full, and they may net.
