HOLIDAY GOODS.
NOW OPENING.

Nearly every steamer and railroad
train leaving New York and Baltimore
have a portion of their freight marked
for c. NJ. Adams, Alexandria, Va.
In my experience of 20 years mer-
chaudising I have never seen the finer
class of goods offered lower than the
cheaper makes. We need this half
column space to ventilate developments
that the people of this city may look
for. We start to-day, December 3, 1896,
with prices that will almost paralyze
everybody. Can we prove this broad
assertion?

In the pamphlet already quoted. Mr..

be secured from nurseries rather than
from tbs woodlands or other uncultivat-
ed places. because of the necessity of
not breaking the roots in taking the
tree from the ground. The ordinary
method of transplanting a tree Is TO dig
Mole about the tree TO be removed and
take 1t out, without reference to the
small roots, as soon as II can be torn
from the ground. Then In the place
where II is to he set a kind OF post hole

Prince Louis, of Savoy, and some of the
crew of the Italian steamship Cristofero
Colombo were attacked on the streets of
Valparaiso by Il CHILEAN mob. The Ital-
ians would have met with the same vio-
lence as did some of the crew of the United
States cruiser Baltimore had not the Ital-
ian party been armed. The prince and
his friends stood off the mob until rescued
by the police, Although the mob used
sticks and stones, none of the royal party
of visitors were seriously injured. The
mob vented its rage on the prince because
Italy sold the two second hand cruisers to
the Argentine Republic.

In Preparing His Twenty Years I'm Con-
gress" the Maine Statesman Selected
Miss Dodge rs His Literary Adviser, am.
HAMILTON, Mass. AUG. 1s.-Miss Abb
gail Dodge Gail Hamilton(, the famous
authOrcss, died last night at her beautiful
home from the effects of "a paralytic shock.
Miss Dodge was stricken while at brouk-
fast Sunday morning and Immediately
became unconscious. She never rallied
Miss Dodge had a similar shock while in
Washington about Il year ago. Miss Au-
gusta Dodge and other relatives were at
the bedside when the end came.
Miss Mary Abigail Dodge is best known
because of her advocacy of the c%andidature
of the late James G. Blaine for the prcsi-
dency. She was a cousin to the states
mans wife, and was his tried and true
friend. Throughout the most active por-
ton Of his life she was full Of sympathy
with his ambitions, she helped him and
cheered him, besides being Mrs. Blaine's
most priced companion.
Years z Miss Dodge adopted as her
nom de plume Gail Hamilton" made Of
n portion of her middle name and the
own of her birth, Hamilton, Mass. She
has had n unique literary career, enc that
began with singular promise, ND was
merged by circumstances and influence,
into other directions. Gail Hamilton first
came into prominence rs the writer OF
~singularly vivaciOus and penetrating rs-
says which appeared in the Atlantic
Monthly in the early years of the decade
of 1S6O-7O. She had the gift of investing
with interest and keen humor the mos,
commonplace subject, as the call Of a
%neighbor in a country farm house or tn,
antics of the poultry in the garden. Sh,
was the author Of quite a number OF
books, among which are "A New AtmoS.
phere, ~ Gala Days, '''Woman's Wrongs,
Red Letter Days Twelve Miles from
a Lemon summer Rest" Sermons 70
the CLERGY, ~ what Think We Of Christi
and a s~o-called novel entitled First Love
is Best"
In 1851 Miss Dodge became instructor in
physical science at the Hartford Conn
High school. Soon ufterward she went to
Washington as II governess in the family
of DR.. Gamaliel Bailey, the publisher OF
the old National Era, the principal organ
of the abolitionist movement. Her sym.
pathies were enlisted in that cause, and
her first reputation as IA writer was wor
by her contributions to the paper. From
1865 to 1866 she was editor of Our Young
Folks. Some Of her best work was in
cluded in "A series of letters to the New
York Tribune in 1887 on civil service re
form and political topics.
Miss Dodge was the literary adviser Of
James g.. Blaine in the preparation of hi.
work, Twenty Years in Congress, ~ ant
he is said to have relied largely upon hel
Judgment. After the death Of Mr.. Blain,
she was commissioned by the family tC
prepare his biography, and all his letter.
and papers We're placed in her possession
1t is supposed that the earnestness with
which she devoted herself to this work af
fected her health. She was seriously i'll 4
