Thank You!

we must say that you have surprised u.s. We
felt that our long service to small meas
ure OF your kindly iDterest-but your presence-your
congratulations and compliments OF today overwheIm
U.S. They are the reality of what hoped we might
enjoy after the Greater Saks Stores had made their
record.
Surely store had a Ioyal cientage-
and truly no cientage had a better store than
we shall strive to make this.
Not one single adverse criticism has been made
But as our friends want you make them. m all
this great store 'twoud be strange if there was
not some flaw that had escaped vgilance-and
we rely upon the membership of the people to point
them out Faults do disappointments from

cabed for OF many European nOveIties-to i'm
portant things in merchandising = unamIiarity
direct vistors-other little shortcomings that we
saw, but maybe you did not. To correct them all
not only be prompt duty-but greatest
pleasure.
Today shall take up the thread of regular
businesS-not spasmodic-but regular
free from temporary MISUNDERSTANDING every
day to strengthening that which has been done.
Again thank you'll

Senator Francis z, Warren of Wyo-
ming, has been in town for several days
looking after matters in the departments
concerning his own State. Since the ad-
journment of CONGRESS last Summer SEN
ator Warren has shaved off his nous
tache and the change made in his appear
ance is quite remarkable His best
friends have failed to- recognize him until
they heard the sound of his voice. Sena-
tor Warren has had considerable amuse-
ment with his ftien9s and others in this
connection. Yesterday he met an old
friend in F Street, and rushing up to
him exclaimed: fOld man, am delighted
to see you. Do YOU think that you could
lend me 'five?' | am dead broke
The friend stepped back and said: my
dear sir, ! do not know you. How the
devil can you expect me to lend you
money!"
He was on the point of saying some
thing stronger when he recognized the
senator and said: Senator, the drinks
are on me- What will you have?" But
Warren would not have it that way. The
matter however, was adjusted finally to
the satisfaction of both parties.

Speaking of the political outlook in
wyoming Senator Warren said he be-
lieved that the Republicans would carry
the State and have a majority in the leg

would choose a successor to Senator

no doubt, succeed himself but the Repub-

Michigan a Summer Resort State.

An official directory, showing briefly but
strikingly the advantages of the numerous
summer and health resorts, the mineral
springs and the excellent sanitaria in Mich
igan, is soon to be distributed by the State
Board of Health.
In accordance with a resolution of the
legislature, the Board has caused to be made
a thorough inquiry into the subject of Mich
igan's resorts, and has collected information
that will be of great interest and value to
future tourists to the state, including in
creasing numbers of persons resident In
other states who in every hot summer seek
healthful and pleasant surroundings further

Great Lake States immense resort capacity

Council Bluffs, Ia, Sept. 20.-Con-
ductor w. c. Morris of the Lake Ma
nawa railway was held up and robbed
by three men while bringing his train
In from the lake agout 9 O'clock. The
three men, who were not disguised,
boarded the train at the lake and took
seats in an empty car. When Morris
went into the car to collect their fares
one Of the three drew his revolver and
told Morris to hold up his hands. In
stead Of complying Morris grappled
with the bandit, who fired point blank
in his face. The bullet grazed Morris
neck, cutting furrow in the skin, and
his chin and one cheek were badly
burned with the powder. The two 9TH
er men then sprung on Morris and held
him while they went through his pock-
cts, securing $57. ~
Two Of the men then held Morris
while the third member Of the gang
went through to the next car and held
up four passengers, securing three gold
watches and nearly 500. As the train
reached a dark place in the road the
men swung off and disappeared in the
darkness. Lake Manawa is a popular
pleasure resort and is usually attended
by large crowds on sunday vi

San Francisco, Sept. 20.-There was

orders were received from Washington

there TO proceed To Ma lila. The sorrow

Seventh and Eighth California regi-

and Fourth United States cavalry. The
Californians are hoping almost against
hope that they will yet receive
the long-looked-for orders. The
joy of the Tennesseeans was particular
ly demonstrative, and their rebel yell"
could be heard at almost any time dur
ing the day.
Their bands played joyous airs and
there was a general feeling of mirth in
evidence all day. The other regiments
were almost as badly affected. The en-
thusiasm spread even to the officers and
official dignity was relaxed in the first
enthusiastic outbreaks. but later in the
dayit was restored, although there was
a buzz of excitement in the fortunate
camps. The regiments ordered to Ma
Mia are the Fifty-first Iowa, Twentieth
Kansas, First Tennessee, First Wash

The Next Thing In Order.

It is quite true that trade follows the flag.
but trade has got to move along without de-
lay If it is to keep up with the flag in these
days.-New York Tribune.
Not quite SO, good brother. Another
flag flying from another masthead must
come in between the ship that conquers
territory and the trade that follows con-
quest. It is the American flag flying
from the maintop Of an American mer-
chant ship that heads the commercial
procession. The ship with shotted guns
is in its way indispensable to the safety,
the glory and the progress Of the nation,
but it is not the ship whose flag is di-
reotly followed by trade. The peaceful
ship of commerce is the next thing in
order. Without it trade will have no
difficulty in keeping up with the flag.
There will be more flag than trade.

reassuring telegram describing the sit

and the insurgents appear more friend

lomatically avoids reference to the sit
uation beyond that point He says
nothing about the quarrels between the
insurgent leaders or of the insurgent
campaign against the Spanish. Latest
general advces and official information
by way of Madrid are TO the effect that
the insurgents are looting the rest of
the Island of LuZon and subjecting
thousands of Spanish prisoners to in
credible privations.
Advices from Havana and Porto Rico
are that arrangements for the evacua-
ton Of the two islands are proceeding
satisfactorily. Our military commits
sioners have met with no serious OBJ
stacles or frictions. AS to the political
situation in Cuba, there is little doubt
that the insurgent leaders have re-

have received assurances that sub
stantial backing will be given the move-
ment.

tiers In which the whole people were
evincing overwhelming interest. The
matter is still undecided, but the gen.
eral Is thinking It over.
