  A Magnificent Display of Dress and Millinery Goods-The ltaI- ian Orchestra q
 Success.

0mpOSeu ol blb UedubY dGu o0fl6 Ol our city that was assembled at the Grand Leader last evening to view the grand fall opening which is in progress IL ,,5ol.u.odlous estab- lishment, would convince anyone of the enthusiastic interest that IS taken in such displays.
 The scene was one that is seldom witnessed in 9 city of this size. As fast as the people dispersed the va cancies would be readily filled by the many anxious" who were wait ing on the sidewalk. An Italian or chestra entertained the interested Spectators and it was near midnight before the Grand Leaders doors We're closed for the night.
 THE DISPLAYS
 On entering the store ones eyes are attracted by displays in seven booths, which were arranged and decorated by Mir Geo Kaufman, who has again proven himself an artist in the decorating art. In these booths are displays of hand some corsets, muslins, ladies hosiery and neckware and beautiful displays of antique laces and embroideries. Ones attention is again readily attracted by ali elegant display of ladies wraps which extends to the ceiling in an immense pyramid. In crossing the building one is ln- terested in the gorgeous displays of silks, venetian cloths, coyerts cloths, tucked effects cloth, broad cloth, chenille and silk brocades, serges, muslin de soire for evening wear, ard polka dot silks, in all the latest shades of cadet and royal blue, army gray and blue and Am arican beauty red. The wraps prevail in military eifects.
 Advancing to the rear of this fairy land you see comforts, lin ens, notions, wool blankets and every thing imaginable in these lines.
 At last one comes to the center ol attraction which is under the Management of the efficient ard artistc milliner, Miss Cater, late of New York City. The millinery de- partment is the "apple of each visi- 'ors eye and does much credit to 'ne ladies in charge. The hats are 0eauties, the likes of which have psyer before been seen in this city. Among the many is the amethyst alrred velvet scarriage hat, with overs and foliage trimmings. The nposlng tipped hat of black velvet lsh black polka dotted white sumes pompon of national blue Vooii dhu lollage, ana many other sautlful hats which we have not " space to describe.

PORTUGAL 5 GREAT DAY
WHY PORTUGUESE CELEBRATE
DECEMBER FIRST.
The Power of Spain over Portugal
was Upset by a Revolution and has
Never Been Reasserted.

Tomorrow the Portuguese celebrate
Il national holiday. Ihe yoke OF
Spain, which was put on their necks
in 1850, was lifted by their own eff
forts i'm lGlO, a period of just sixty
years, but "a period that they have
never forgotten. The causes of this
celebration are not very well known
so The star digs little into history
to find them.
In 1851 the Portuguese throne fell
to one Sebastian, a youth who had
great hopes of spreading the Portu-
gucsc power in North Africa, and in
cidentally of getting the Christian re
ligiOn established there. 1t was the
time when the sword and the cross
were practically synonymous. Sebas-
tian's little scheme failed and he with
many thousands of Portuguese lost
their lives on the African sands. He
had left as his regent, Cardinal Hen
rique, the last surviving representa-
tive of the royal house. ITenrique was
solemnly crowned and reigncd. but
there was any quantity of intrigue
about the succession. There were five
claimants of whom it is only necessa-
nv to mention two. Philip, king of
Spain, and joan, duke of Braganza.
As far as genealogy goes. Philips
claim was the better. but there was a
law in Portugal which prohibited from
the throne any descendent of the roy
al family whose progenitriX had mar
ried a foreign prince. Consequently
the Duke of Braganza had the legal
right.
On the death of Henrique in 1850.
Philip invaded Portugal and within a
short time occupied Lisbon and took
possession of the Portuguese fleet. He
was able to hold his conquest. and was
followed by Philip II. and Philip Ill
Under these reigns the Portuguese
were constantly dissatisfied and an
attempt to get all the Portuguese no.
DleS to Madrid broke the bubble. The
nation rose and threw off the woke.
The last scene in the drama was OF
course bloodshed. On December I
1910. the conspirators against the
Spanish governor were led by priest
whose left hand held crucify but
whose right hand held a sword with
winch he doughtily laid low the Cas-.
'i'ah ana Swiss guards. The Secreta.

was murdered and his body dramucd

ARE MAKING MONEY.

NEW YORK. November 15.-The di-
rectors of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company met last night and increas-
ed the Scmi-annual dividend rate from.
l to ~ per cent. President c. p.
Huntington said that this action was
warranted by the cash holdings of the
company, over Sl,50O.0OO. It will re-
quire 100000 to pay the increased div
idend, and this will leave enough to
protect the Pacific Mail interests on
the Pacific coast. Mr.. Huntington adj.
ded that the story that two new stea.
merS had been ordered was at least
premature, although additions to the
company's fleet were contemplated be
cause its business needs them.
