INTERESTING TO LADIES.

We have cut deep into the price
of every garment in our Ladies'
Cloak and Suit Department, con-
sisting of Man-tailored Suits, Jack
cts, Fur Capes, and Collarettes.
We are determined to close out
every single garment before we re-
ceive our spring stock, and have
consequently reduced them to ri
diculously low figures.
If you can use anything in this
line it will certainly be a matter
of economy to give us a call.
This is no sale of left over
stock, but everything is strictly up
to date. Respectfully,

BEGGARS IN ITALY.
Suffering Humanity in the Country of
the Caesars.

The restitution of the Italian poor,
says I. Zangwill, in the Youths Com
panion, is not matched outside of Ire
land, and the sufferers bear it with
the same sweet resignation, pathetical-
ly grateful for the smallest contribu-
tions. Beggars, blind, crippled, or with
hideous grOwths placed at every point
of vantage along the grand tourist
highway, undo much of the good the
sight of the beautiful works upon the
spirit.
In the more paying situations there
is keen competition. Nowhere are de-
formed beggars more numerous and in
sistent than in Assist, with it's touch
ing "reminiscences of st. Francis, the
preacher to birds, whose humble shrine
naturally tends to soften the purse
strings.
The Italian beggar holds out or push
es forward his deformity as if it were
for sale. At any rate, it is on view-at
fee. If the Italian government which
owes so much of it's scanty revenue to
it's American, English and German Wis
itors, had any consideration for their
feelings, it would pension off it's beg
gars, even if it had to charge the stran-
ger pauper tax for entry which would
cover all claims.
The human insists are not the only
beggars. 1t might be roughly said that
all Italy lives on tips. Even the COM
paratively respectable classes have
become corrupted by the tourists, quite
well dressed young lady, coming
her prayer book in st. Peters sudden
ly startled me by demanding an aims.
There is no possible thing that can be
done for you which you are allowed to
do for yourself, and nothing which can
be divided into two duties is allowed
to be done in one. Woe to the Italian
who by doing too much interferes with
tip the second or tip the third.

senate. we regard the open letter OF
Governor Stone as an improper inter-
ference by the executive branch of the

ceeds at length to declare that Senator
Quay has used every means to prevent
a trial of the conspiracy charges
against him.

headquarters. He said: Il left Sen
ator Quay at Washington today in ex-
cellent spirits. He is busiy engaged in

He may or may not be here this week
His friends have advised him that there
is no necessity at this time for his
presence here, as the condition OF MS
canvass is in excellent shape, and mat
tiers are being attended to by his friends
satisfactorily. l have no reason tt
change my opinion that Senator quay
