 s. Stovin, the well-known and popu- lar ladies' tailor of III and 17S Orange street, takes pleasure in announcing that his fall opening is now occurring, and he cordially invites all ladies or taste and discrimination to inspect hls really superb stock of high grade goods. It has been MT Stovin's annual GUS tom to make selections for his patrons in Paris, Vienna and London, and his reputation for keeping strictly first class goods has been well established in this city. As a consequence his par lors have been visited by hundreds of the elite, who desire the best fabrics made up in the latest styles and in thoroughly artistic manner
 His select trade has steadily increas- ed from year to year, and he and his talented corps of assistants are kept busy in responding to the orders of his patrons. This fall his selections are positively the finest which could be pro- cured from abroad. They have been carefully selected, and an inspection of them will attest the ability and rare taste of MT. Stovin. The large stock includes the latest high class novelties in Woolens, trimmings for fancy suits, tailor-made garments, wraps, etc. Mrs Steven will be in attendance at the opening, which will be continued for a week,

 It was stated yesterday morning that Miligan Bros. who are doing the bridge building on the cut improve ment, had brought twenty-five non-un- ion men from New York to put to work in the cut, This action on the part of the contractors may result in trouble, 1t is said.

THE VALUE OF THE NAVAL RE-
 VIEW.

The splendid fleet which assembled for review by the commander-in -chief performed a service which can scarcely be exaggerated.I has given the Ameri- can people a clearer understanding of the character and extent of their navy. It has presented convincing proof that the vast sums so freely voted for naval purposes have been judiciously expend- ed and it has made known beyond the shadow of doubt that the national fleet is alert and ready for any emergency. The event will be memorable in our naval history. IL will be studied with profound interest in the office of every naval minister in the world.
 Of the great naval powers none but England could assemble g. mightier fleet than that at Oyster Bay without re- calling ships from foreign stations. In preparing for the review of September 3. no vessels were withdrawn from

VEIN OF $50 ORE OPENED.
Brattleboro Mining Co. Strikes Some
thing Good at Leadville, Col.

The following item from the Lead
vile, Col, Herald Democrat of April 4
in regard to the operations of the Brat
tleboro Mining company, formerly the
Valley Leasing & Mining company. VIII
be of interest to local people: 1t has
taken 300 feet of drifting to the west
from the Brattleboro shaft to find what
is believed to be the continuation OF
the Katy ore shoot, but Brattleboro at
any rate has opened into a fine streak
of gold d-silver, lead ore of about $3U
value a ton. The ore was found Mon
day and it appears to be dipping be
low the drift level. Should further de-
velopment show that it goes down ma.
terially it is probable new shaft will
be sunk there as it is only about lou
feet from the surface. The surface ap'
pearances where this ore is found, be
ing sauarely in the valley and appar-
emily in natural basin, are deemed ia
vorable for a, large deposit which with
its excellent grade will make the Brat
tleboro a very profitable venture.
In letter written to Dennison
Cowles by A. V. Bohn, manager of the
Brattleboro mine, on the same day is
the following: / think I am well
enough informed about the conditions
in the west drift to say that we will
have mine there the last of the week.
