Bring So and pick from
lot Of 20 black crepon skirts
worth from $40 to SI4.
For $40 you can have one
fully silk lined, or a black
polka satin one cambria lined.
Nothing the matter with the
skirts, and they are the most
fashion approved of any arti-
Gle of dress this season.
Somebody was unfortunate.
1t is not our loss, although we
shall put in the very high cost
ones we now have-only two
-one was $I2.5o, one more.
Even these two will hurt the
profit on the 20 if they go

want one. Opportunities are
elusive and should be en-
braced with promptness and
alacrity.

what we opened yesterday and
are going to sell quick. New
er were so many stylish de-
signs in silk, velvet and cloth,

store. Do you want to pay
less? We have them ST.. o8,
1876, 3, 1888, 4.38, S. Don't
see how some of them can be
made for the price. Are you
willing to pay more? There's
S12.5o, 1850, IS, 1850, II,
1850, and you get no more,
and perhaps less, material, but
somehow they do not stay in
the store long. Must be some
reason why.
Seven very stylish pattern,

come from artistic hands; $40,

Japanese Love For Animals.

Tho love of animals seems to be i'm
planted in tho hearts of tho Japanese, and
is on exceedingly aminble trait Of their
character between them and the lower
animals, which q stranger cannot foil to
notice and admire, says a writer in "Onr
Animal Friends" Consideration for the
lower order of beings Is probably the result
Of the kindly tcnets of Buddha, who in
stillcd the lesson of divine humanity into
his followers, but 1t may be that tho
benevolcnce of tho Japanese owes its
origin to fear as we'll rs love, since they
arc believers In trnnsmigration, and
Buddha says, "Thy future birth will DO
unhappy if thou doest cruel things
Tho education Of tho japanese child is
derived in most cases from its mother,
who teaches it morality and tenderness
whilo yet an infant. To this beautiful
feminine influence may DO traced the lovo

A Witty Judge.

Some years ago there lived in Ala
bama judge who was noted for the
sarcasm which no dispensed lavishly
during his administration Of Justice
On one occasion during q term of court
ut Montgomery young man was tried
for stealing pccketbook. The next case
was for murder. The evidence in the
larceny case was slight, but III the other
seemed to the judge conclusive. To his
amazement and wrath, however the
jury convicted the young man and ac-
quilted the murderer
In passing sentence upon the convict
ed thief, after the discharge of the other
prisoner, the judge said:
Young man, you have not been in
this country long?"
No, your HONOR" replied the pris-
oner
II thought not" said the judge.
You don't know these people. You
may kill them, but don't touch their
pocietbooks !"
On another occasion, when the evil
dence seemed to point conclusively to
the prisoner guilt, but when the Judge,
from long experience, distrusted the
jurymen's wisdom, the counsel for the
defendant said, "It is better that 90
guilty persons should escape than that
one innocent man should suffer-"
In his charge to the jury the Judge
admitted the soundnesS of this PROPOSE
ton, but he added impressively and
severely:
Gentlemen, I want you to bear in
mind that 90 have already escaped. -

Among the many facts that show how
business has been injured by the tariff
reform policy of Cleveland's admins.
tra'ion are the following, in regard 10
the transactions of the clearing houses
of the country:
In the month of December, 1892. the
clearing house returns of New York
City amounted to $S16. GJS, 326. while Ia
December. 1894. they were S4S5, 500, 9S:},
showing that the business in the New
York clearing house during the month
OF December. 1894. was 1891. 1O4. 93.,
less than it was in December, 1892.
The business done in the clearing
houses outside of New York in Deem
Der. 1892. was 1898, So, 3D., while in
December. 1894. it was only $4O6, 743,-
S&3. This shows that the business in
the clearing houses outside of Now
York City vas $192. S3o,4S3 less in De,
cember. 1884, than it was in December,
1892. The total falling off in the busi,
ness of the clearing houses of the
United States in December. 1894, from
that of December. 1892, was S5J23.944.-
l2o.
Now notice the loss of business in the
New York clearing house as compared
with that of the London clearing house
during these periods.
In December. 1892, the business of the
New York clearing house. as above
stated. was $S16, G5S, 926. while the bus.
mess Of the London clearing house was
SCO2, 526. POO, showing that the business
in the New York clearing house sur
passed that of the London clearing house
in December, 1892, by $214,132,716
while in December, 1894. the business
done in the London clearing house was
$2S4.564, $40 more than the business
done through the New York clearing
house during that month.
While the business in the New York
clearing house fell off 1891, 1O4 1888 IN
December, 1894, from that OF Decem'
Der, 1892, the business in the London
clearing house increased $165,592,oo9.
BY footing up the total amount of bus
mess done in the city of New York dur
ing the year 1892 and that during the
wear 1894, we find the following results:
Business done in 1892 amounted to $S,-
$40. O94. 727; business done In 1871
amounted to only $5,Si5,G39.O1S, which
shows that the business through the
clearing house of the city OF New YORK
alone had decreased in 1894 from that
of 1892 to the amount of $3,O971 4335 ,G49.
This great decline in business is u 10
the disastrous tariff and money policy
of Cleveland and his party.

There are but few moments of the or

ARizONA'S QUAKER SHERIFF.

The Climate Not Suited to the Principles
In Which He Was Brought Up.
Arizona possesses a Quaker sheriff
who is startlingly effective. He is
Commodore Perry Owens, Sheriff of
Apache County, formerly city marshal
of Winslow, and one Of the guards of
Wells Fargo Express across Arizona,
says the New York Sun. He is an In
dianian who went to Arizona fifteen
years ago. Hispeople are Quakers, and
live near Cartersburg, Ind. When u
friend asked him the other day if the
report was true that he had removed
from active life more men than any
other man in Arizona he looked painful
for a moment. Then he answered:
II was raised a Quaker, but out here,

have shot 100 men. Well, no, haven't;
unless you want to count Mexicans.
I've only killed fourteen white men and
wounded fifty-three. Some of them
died after they were wounded, but that
was the fault of the doctor.
"Over in WinslOw several years ago
