London, Oct 6.-Following closely
upon the publication of the Anglo

BILE talk of the possibility of an un-

ment that will not only assure peace,
but clear away suspicious leading

Always a popular resort for the
careful buyer, the big store of the
Joyce-Pruit Company was crowded
to the doors during the hours of it's
fall opening last night. The doors
were thrown open at six-thirty, and
it was not long until the whole house
was filled with people who had come
to see hat was to be "the thing in
fall styles. They came and went in
a constant stream for four hours and
in all there were between four and
five thousand visitors at the store
last night There were many attend
ants from the surrounding country.
The Joyce-Pruit Company's open
ings are always the feature of the
opening of spring and fall business,
and they are always an attraction for
thousands, but never before last
night was the crowd handled in such
a manner as to avoid the jam that
is bad for the proper display of
goods. Last night the whole store
was thrown open to visitors, grocery
department and all. The refreshments
were served in the grocery depart
ment, and this kept the dry goods,
clothing and millinery departments
free from the press that has always
gathered about the serving table. The
one place where the jam could not
be kept away was in the millinery
department. and there the ladies had
SO many pretty things to see that
they spent more time than elsewhere
in the store. 3
As entertainment for the monster
crowd splendid music was provided
by a four-piece orchestra under the
sic was employed late in the even
ing by the young people, who danced
when the crowd had thinned out suf-
ficiently to permit the free use OF
the aisles. The refreshments consist
ed of Joyce-Pruit's best In the gro
made from the famous Breakfast Bell
blend and served by George N. Will
son, of the New York Coffee Compa-
ny, who is an expert at coffee-making,
was dispensed to all callers, and wa
fers and cakes, the best on the mar
ket, were passed.
The management had ordered two
thousand carnations to be given TO
the ladies as souvenirs of the occa-
sion, but for some reason they did
not get here. The number would
have fallen short of the crowd in at
tendance, for as is usual on such oc-
casions, the ladies were in the ma
jority
The exhibit of fall goods was worth
column of space. but as nearly ev-
eryone in Roswell was there to see
it, a detailed write-up will not be gi
ven. In every department full line
of the latest goods was to be seen
Dry goods and gentlemen's clothing
were exhibited in great quantities
and the people always come to Joyce
Pruitss to see what is the correct
thing The millinery department
was Especially attractive. the large
line zpf Gage Bros. pattern hats be
ing the subject of general admiration
AMONG the ladies.
The opening was another big sue
cess for the Joyce-Pruit Company
and gives them well grounded prom
ise for their usual heavy fall trade.

RAILROAD WORLD.

The quarantine is still making itself felt In railroad circles. The immense passen- ger travel north enjoyed for some time by the Queen and Crescent and the Louis- vile and Nashville, still clntinues heavy, but nothing like as heavy as it was two weeks ago.
 Freight traffic on all roads out of New Orleans In every direction has been ma terially effected, and a number of through freight trains were discontinued on certain of the roads for a while. The business was given to other roads where there were no quarantine restrictions, and it will be hard in many instances for the original carriers to get the busl- ness again.
