SOUND MONEY HAS WON AT ST.
LOUIS.

All the states and territories, except
Alaska, to be represented at st. Louis in
the national Republican convention have
adopted their platforms, and from these
a perfectly trustworthy forecast may be
made OF the financial plank to be framed
by that body.
Thirty-three states and territories, rep
resenting a total Of $40 delegates, have
pronounced unqualihedly for the gold
standard and against the free and un-
limited coinage of silver at any ratio.
Nine states and territories, represent
ng total Of elghty-four votes in the
convention, have adopted a free silver
platform. Eight, including. Alabama,
Florida, Kansas, Louisiana, West Vir-
ginia, New Mexico, Oklahoma and the
Indian territory. constituting a total OF
nfnety-two votes, are doubtful Adding
nInety-two TO the eighty-four, the con-
vention win stand for the gold standard
and against the free coinage Of silver at
any ratio, 74O to 176.
The question, therefore, OF the money
platform Of the national Republican con-
vention is settled conclusiyely and final
ly. From that body will come forth to
the country the first inspiring note CIV
ing an impulse of new life and warrant
for confident energy to the long dis
heartened Industrial powers OF the ma
uon, to it's labor and its capital, its
genius and its enterprise.
On that platform William Mckinley
will be nominated for president Of the
United States. On that platform he win
be elected. On that platform there will
be elected with him a congressional ma
iority competent to take up the questions
of national finance and national revenue.
Upon that platform legislatures will be
chosen which in two years will wrest the

THE LECTURE OF WILL CARLEToE.
WHAT SORT OF ENTERTAINMENT NEW. TOWNERS MAY EXPECT.

The word "lecture" has often a dry sound; to merely say that manis going
 to lecture is usually enough to make the
 seats empty and to keep the people away. Will Carleton's lecture, which is to be given in the Town hall here November 10.
 is not that style. It is bright and unique {;
 will Carleton holds place on the public
 platform to-day all his own. The follow.
 ing report of one of these fascinating re- citals gives you the idea of what you may expect when Will Carleton gets here:
 The largest audience of the season
 gathered last night to hear Will Carle- ton, the poet, humorist and lecturer.
 The subject of the lecture was 1.-The Drama of Human Nature,'' and in it MT Carleton undertook to demonstrate that there was a dramatic vein running through everything. His talk was ar- ranged in such manner as to allow the Introduction of number of poems. He said we need not go out of our own couns try, city or home for our drama of life, Every one you meet is a character and you wonder what part they play. In this connection he rccited Bessie, the Bride" Dramas are round about our very table, as with the Beecher family, where every member is a star. Here he gave the hIs- tory of "Uncle Sammy" in his own pe- culiar manner. There are dramas in the church in which the pastor is the star ac- tor, The story of the ''Parson's Travels' was given to illustrate the dramatic fea- ture of such lives. The church choir he considered dramatic incident. He re- cited "The New Church Organ" He spoke of the n4ournful drama of the fu- neral and gave an address of a colored preacher at a funeral. The Sunday school in dramatic way brought out 8 recitation called "Picnic Sam," small boy with wonderful appetite for picnic dinners. The 'District School Master, was introduced to illustrate the drama in every day school. Frontier drama brought out The First Settlers Storv." Starting with bull fighting, he followed the different amusements of the ages up to the present baseball craze. Then he gave Mir Stebbin's luck as ball player, roller skating and later on the beach. The lecture was entertaining and full of amusing points. It was thoroughly er- j0yed by the audience.

Do you contemplate committing matrimony this fall? If you do you will need Furniture and Carpets be- fore you can settle down to house. keeping and we are going to suggest that it would ba vary proper and a very prudent thing to come to Haw- leyVille and look us over before you buy, We have an immense stock to select trom and our facilities for hand ling are such that we can make 8 liV- ing commission and yet sell way b. low city prices. We have no so called leaders in the store. Did you ever an- alyze leader? It's an article of low value, sold at cost or little less, for the purpose of creating false impres sion No expensive piece of furniture is ever made u3e of as 8 leader. All of our goods are marked on a consis- tent commission. You can pick up some of the other fellows leaders at a less price than we will sell, but if you want a fine piece, or general assort ment of furniture, to furnish up 8 house, you will find that the sum tot al of bill selected at HawleyviIle will be much less than the sum total of the same bill selected in the city, We are sending great many goods to the cities of Connecticut in direct com potion with large stocks in those cit ies. This no doubt seems to you Eat first thought absurd, and 8 stretch of the truth, that people should leave places like Hartford and New Haven and come to Hawleyville to buy but there IS 8 good and valid reason why we can make it for their inter- est to do 30
 Did you ever think how much room it requires to handle a large stock of Furnl ture? And did you ever think what it costs to rent and maintain that room iu the city? Just consider for moment the odds in our favor, both in expense and facilities for hand ling, and you will see nothing so very absurd iD city people coming to Flaw leyYille to buy furniture. In these times people are quite apt to buy where the purchasing power of 8 dol lar is the most. It will ever be thus until we have free coinage, and silver dollars are distributed around to the masses in 8 basket.
 We are selling pianos now, and if you are going to buy one this fall don't fail to let us know it.
