will be most tasteful, although not of the most
expensive character, the leading feature of
which will be the triumphal arch at t'.tb street.
Although the storm of this morning scattered
things generally there, all the damage, which
was slight, ha- been since repaired.
Mf. Charles W. Cunningham was yesterday
and to day engaged putting tip the gas nxture's
on the grand carnival arch, and his work win
add much to the beauty of the arch when light
ed up. A large star of gas jets and thirteen
clusters and the same number of smaller stars
appear on either side. The predominating colors
on the arch are gTeen and bine, an I with tie
mottoes, flags, Ac., the arch itself will be worth
a journey to see.
ITOHTTWO TH* AVBXrB.
Leaving out the archway and the decorations
on private buildings, tbe avenue at night will
be one grand blaze of light, and doubtless wilt
eclipse an>thing of the kind yet seen on ttt.s
continent. At each of the 112 gas lamps between
the Capitol and 1Mb street there will be ?even
burners, by means of a pipe thrown four feet
ontsideof the curb. Besides these, lines of wires
have been atmng along the avenue, on which
will be Chinese and other colored lights.
THB balls.
There will be a great variety or costumes at
the masked ball at the National Theater fn
Tuesday evening, and many of them will be
rich and elegant. Some unique deslgna are
spoken of. and the decorations and cootumes
will be worth seeing. A limited numl>er fit
spectators will be admitted to the paninette.
.lrese circle and galleries.
The civic ball at the Masonic Temple will be
a brilliant affair, and all tbe government digai
taries and distinguished strangers in WaEhi:ig
ton will be present.

A CHAPTER OF FACTS.
The simple fact of my Low Prices is too well
known to b< deubted.
The fact of my being able to sail *o cheap is
c&ase 1 only buy for cash.
Another fact is, that 1 am satisfied with a very
small profit,
A ad coaac^uenily, 1 find it a very pl< aaing fact
that uiy store is constantly crowded with customers.
Notwithstanding the fact that everybody is com
plaiaing of dull times,
I allow mysalf to inform those who do not know ot
the fact, that 1 keep a very largo and wall-assorted
Mock of
JVLYCF GOODS AJD TO VSt
And aNo of the important fact that 1 have deveUI
one side ot ?> store to
dollm: good*.
I The particular attraction en this aide of the at ore
. will certainly le ike fast of you buying something,
The most stabboru fact of all u that nj store ig at
I* tis utixxb street.
