 ing it. That's worth S30. .00, v she said. Said Mrs. Stoker,
 this large chamois top, with
 green velvet facing and gold
 cloth trimmings, is one of the
 swellest hats we are showing. Another beautiful hat of the
 many was the large greer beaver
 trimmed with white wings and
 velvet ribbon, while still another
 was a large black with two fine ostrich plumes and trimmed with a band of fur and black ribbon rosette. MT. and Mrs. Stoker were assisted in their opening day rush by their clever sales lady, Mrs. .Jno. W. Pope, Miss Lillian Cooke and by Miss Agnes Haberman, their milliner, who is now serving he second season, in Brinkley.
 AT LANG, GOLDBERG & Cos.
 Come, and let me show you the swellest lat in our display, " said Miss French, the milliner at Lang, Goldberg & Co.'S. Here it is, the two large willow ostrich plumes, we sell at S20 each, said she as she carefully lifted from a glass case a large black hat ornamented with jet cabochons and two elegant large back willow plumes. This hat we sold for 5000 and it was well worth the price. The next prettiest hat is the pressed broad cloth Wisteria with inn. ported wings, which you see worn by the figure in the east window display. Another beau ty, and a striking one too, is that two toned white and black silk hat with the double pair of i'm ported black and white wings and jet cabochons.
 Here Miss French was called away and 1 did not again have an opportunity to review her pretty display of high art in the millinery line.
 The store was crowded all day long and until late at night sou venirs in the way of imported china tea pots were given out to all ladies attending the opening. MT. Goldberg said that the store was visited by fully 800 to eco ladies on opening day.

Manila, Mar. 22.-Oflcials OF the In

Philippine government are seriously
concerned over the loss on revenues
which will result from the establish
ing Of reciprocal free trade between
the islands and tAe United States un-
der the provision Of the Payne tarin

the first year, due to the decrease IN
customs revenues, will approximate
9, 900, 900 pesos ($2,5OO,OOO) and that
It will increase from year to year with
the growth of American imports. II
these closer trade relations with the
United States restore the islands to
prosperity 1t will become possible
later to impose direct taxation to cover
the deficiencies. In the meantime, II
In feared that the Philippines Will sur
Ter seriously during the readjustmenl
period and that the government VIII
be forced, in all probability, to aband
on many Of the important public works
It has undertaken.
Gov. Gen. Smith has communicated
with Secretary of War Dickinson, ex
pressing his views on the tarin anC
declaring it as his opinion that the IN
Dular government would be seriously
crippled. financially by the operations
Of the Payne Dill.
The consideration Of the tariff cues
Aon Is having a marked effect on loca
business conditions. Virtually all y

Il is expected that this situation VII
