"a Will Have A Fine Store.

w. G. Brust moved his stock
of merchandise into his handsome
new brick store building this
week and is now busily engaged
in getting the goods arranged on
the shelves and in shape to do
business again. While his stock
is not yet complete he has quite
a line of goods on hand and more
will arrive soon, but the bulk of
his stock will not be received
until after the first of the new
year, thus making them fresh,
new goods and of the style and
pattern peculiar to next seasons
merchandise.
Mr.. Brust has considerable
more room in his new building
than in the old store but will
have the space all filled when his
goods are all received. His build
ing has been finished up in first
class shape, making it attractive
and convenient, and he will
eventually have one of the finest
stores this side of Lewiston. He
is installing several fine show
cases, mirrors and other fixtures
and will make the store as con-
Yenient as possible, his intention
being to make it a department
store worthy of the name.
When thoroughly settled he will
have one of the largest stocks of
dry goods, groceries and hard
ware in this part of the state
and will be in shape to handle an
immense business. His store
will be a credit to a town many
times the size of Cottonwood
and will be as modern in every
respect as it is possible to make
it.

London. May 23.-Wherever the
British standard floats the subjects of
King Edward will tomorrow pay low
ing tribute to the memory of his
queen-mother. the great and good
Victoria, whose birthday anniversary
this year falls on Sunday. In London
the observance commenced today and
was accompanied by the usual patri-
otto exercises and athletic events that
mark what is now called Empire day.
Despite the popularity of King Ed
ward among the masses of the Eng
lish people, his birthday has never
been marked by such exhibitions of
patriotic enthu"iasm as even now ex-
tends to the celebration of Victorias
natal day. Perhaps this is largely
due to the conservatism of the British
people, who through reign covering
over three score years, have come to
regard May "a as a permanent holi-
day.
Another royal birthday will be cele-
brated Monday, which will be the
41st anniversary of the birth of the
Princess of Wales. The princeses was
born May 2, 1867, the daughter of
the Duke and Duchess of Tecch. Her
childhood was spent at White Lodge,
one of the most beautiful sections of
rural England. She fas betrothed to
the Duke of Clarence, and when his
death put tragic end to this romance
of royalty, It was soon whispered that
sailor George" had won the heart
and hand of the fair princess.
