This is at Masters.

II. B. Masters big department
store is the busiest place in town,
and in his dry goods and whole
sale departments particularly.
For the last week the statesmen
have been exceedingly busy un-
packing, arranging, showing and
selling one of the most beautiful
lines of fall and winter dress
goods that was ever seen in our
town. Notably conspicuous
among the new stock is the
handsome line of new woolens,
the correct thing for the ladies'
fall and winter dresses. We
would say in this connection that
Mr.. Masters has bought many
more new goods in this line which
will arrive in the course of ten
days. This dry goods depart
ment is bountifully supplied with
laces, trimmings and embroider-
les with lovely line of ribbons
whose beautiful hues rival the
colors of the rainbow. A novel
ty to be seen in this department
is line of fancy stamped linen
tray cloths, doilies, covers for
sofa pillows, etc. The ladies will
be pleased at the completeness of
the hosiery department, with
many pretty and new additions.
The same may be said of corsets,
of which no house in Florida car
ries such a variety to select from.
The ladies are cordially invited to
call and see the goods.

The Finest Train in the World.

Ao AAAOoS
The finest train IN the world is the
sNew North Western Limited which
leaves Minneapolis and st. Paul every
night for Chicago, via the Northwestern
line. This magnificent train, from the
mammoth engine, patterned after the fa-
nous $685." to the last Car ia the train,
is brand new, and represents the latest
and best ideas for absolute comfort and
luxury while travelling.
Besides the splendid buffet library car
really a clubroom on wheels, there is a
magnificent private compartment Sleep
ing car, just the thing for ladies, famil-
les or those desiring privacy, luxuriously
appointed standard sleeping cars and the
most comfortable and well-equipped day
coaches yer offered the travelling public.
This "New Limited" train is admitted
by the press as we'll as by thousands of
people of Minnesota and states west who
have inspected it, apd also by many
others of this western country who have
recently rode on it, as being without any
question the finest tram in the world,
and no extra charge ismade for any class
of passengers for its superior accommo-
dations.
Tickets via this popular line may be
secured from agents of the Northern Pa

ENTERTAINMENTS
Three Nights of Excellent Per-
Torrance, and Delightful
Music.
THE BEST YET GIVEN AT NEIHART.
Bouquets and Lusty Cheers for the
High School Chorus---Tokens of
Merited, Praise for Teachers.

No words of commentator will be
found extravagant in praise of the eff
.cient and mastery ability shown by
Prof. Arthur G.. Sears in the vigorous
policy which he has inaugurated in the
schools of Neihart. If ever man threw
the force of his whole nature into the
perfect execution of a wisely directed
plan certainly this gentleman has done
SO. And the results of his forceful
methods are seen in the remarkable adj
vancement of his pupils, in their renewed
power to do work, and in the generally
healthful tone of the school Every de-
partment is business personified. There
are no drones, but the hive is filled with
workers, enthusiastic in the zeal with
which they perform each duty.
Of Misses Sutton and Simpson also
the same may be said, for they each
guide the destinies of their younger pu-
pills with an earnest and dexterous hand.
The high school as previously an
nounced gave an entertainment in Craw-
ford's hall, Monday night for the benefit
of the school library, at which the hall
was packed, and the door committee re-
ported $t47 as receipts. The program
which we append was wholly by the
high school pupils, who shone with the
life of we'll drilled actors and actresses,
each one performing his part in an able
manner. The "Songs of Seven," the
"Wand Drill" the farce "Shall
Mothers Vote" the %pantomime, from
Hiawatha, and the living statuary de-
serve special mention. In the musical
line the high school girls excel, although
the boys are not to be omitted from the
musical list. Everything was heartily
%applauded. The people of town were
| pleased out of mind at the splendid rem
ditions, rs none of the immense compa-
ny expected to see such an exhibition.
1t was grandly beautiful and entertain
ing from first to last,-the best yet seen
upon a Neihart stage.

Company's river steamers, which pass up
the Yukon river to Circle city, Fort Cud-

On Tuesday evening the pupils OF
the primary and intermediate grades
gave an entertainment a full program of
which we regret our inability to publish.
The "Brownies' Dance" en- uniforme,
was a principal feature, and the singing
by the little folks showed them possess
ed of remarkable talent, well trained for
their years. Speeches and dialogues
were above the popular expectation and
all present spoke in high compliment of
Miss Sutton and Miss Simpson whose
hands had directed the program.
On Wednesday evening came the
third night of the entertainment, a pro-
gram Of which we herewith present.
For Not, of part 2, was substituted a
repetition of ga Shell of Ocean," from
Olivette, which was one of the best
songs by the III. S. girls. The recita-
tons were well rendered, and the essays
were highly praised. Henry W. Pow
ers, the lone graduate, delivered an ex-
cellent address in a pleasing manner,
showing considerable originality in
thought and ease in delivery. The pres
entation of diploma was good, and al
together the exercises were an unqual-
flied success.

John G. E. Barker, president of the

ored by Governor Smith with the APP
pointment of delegate to represent the
Neihart district at the Gold Mining con
vention to be held in Denver July 18th.
The ball game last Sunday at Craw-
ford's ranch was quite interesting. A
large crowd went to witness the game,
which was a tilt between married and
single men. The score stood IA to Is
in favor of the singles. The unfortun-
ate events of the game were numerous.
wherein the players suffered smashed
fingers, and other injuries. Two masks
were slowed in on the faces of the catch
ers, and the batting by both sides was
generally heavy. Several pretty plays
were made, showing that with fair prac-
tice the Neihart boys can hold their own
on the diamond with leading clubs of
tie state. The married men think
from the c~loseness of the score that one
more trial will lay the single fellows in
the shade. A picked nine from these
teams will soon challenge Belt to a
crossing of bats.

Max O'Rell considers that French
women make better wives for poor or
struggling men than do the women Of
other nationalities. Their ambition and
keen sense. no says, are great helps to
mans efforts. and they never allow
themselves to weary in their endenvors
to be CHEEKY and charming. Mr. O'Rell
says that the women are naturally ex-
ceedinely energetic and endowed with
that vivacity which is 50 great a sup
port to their own spirits. and that this
enables them to impart animation and
courage to others.
Other writers have noticed this Pc
culiarity of temperament in French
women. 1t has been said that Americans
have 1t to certain degree, that degres
which compels constant activity, bui
that lack of true balance makes woman
ly energy in the western continent fitfu
and uncertain. while the Gallo womel
will be found of more equable natures

where Money Is Very Mixed.

Although all accounts are kept In
dollars and cents (American standard)
in British Guiana, there is no existing
coinage to correspond. Gold is rarely
rendered, all larger sums being handled
in bank notes, kept SO long in csrcula-
ton that they become almost unrecog-
Unable in their filthy fragmentary d.
lapidation.
The silver coinage consists OF the
most incongruous varieties. Besides
British a number Of coins, fractions and
multiples of the "gilder, enter largely
into circulation. These are known as
the "bitt" (4d.), "half bitt, {" the 1.-TWO
bits, " the ''gilder" (being 80 cents, or
Is. ADJ, and even a peculiar three half
penny piece is still extant. although
eagerly sought for by collectors.
All these coins are Of great and in
leresting variety, incident on the trans
Ter of the colony from the Dutch and
the once distinct governments Of Berbice
and Demerara and Essequibo, long since
amalgamated.
OF copper coins the penny is known
as a ''gill," while the humble baubes
becomes q "cent." Paintings were once
introduced, but were regarded with con
tempt and suspicion, except by few

, them in their brightness for half sover
