Gorgeous Display or Artistic Mil.
Ilnery.
Although the Grand Depot is such an
immense structure, covering as it doeB
nearly three acres of land, its capaci
ties do not by any means equal the in
creasing demand for space, for even
upon ordinary days the establishment
is frequently filled with visitors and
buyers, and when openings ocouroftwo
favorite departments on one and the
same day, it is with greatditliculty that
the throng navigates from one portion
of the building to the other, hence such
stocks as attract most attention are
opened upon different days, so that the
facilities of waiting upon customers
may be sufficient to save them the an
noyance of waiting.
MAOICAL EXHIBITION.
The new room for exhibiting the vast
assortments of hats and bonnets is iu
the gallery on the Thirteenth street
side of fhe Grand Depot, just above
the department formerly used for this
purpose. Togive a graphic description
of the beauties of the display upou
"opening" day requires more coloring
than a pen anil ink sketch is capable
of, to effectively portray the scene a
painter's brush and all the tropical
tints are needed. The visitor upon
entering the rooms sees a rich picture,
dazzling and changing as the lights
and shades come and go. The hats
and bonnets seem not things to be worn
on womanly heads, but beautiful parts
of a grand piece of mosaic. Would you
like to imagine that you see the rare
pictures i Very well, close your eyes
and dream.

You stand in a long room filled with
tables and stands: upon them are doz

placed in the most effective light to
show tlie peculiar beauty of each and
every one. These bonnets are iu all
manner of shapes, and sizes, large,
small, round, square, peaked curled,
indented, flat, curved, straight, smash
ed, smooth, scooped, close and flared,
all iu different materials and colorings,
Bnch as felts, plashes, silks, satins,
velvets aud damasses. These are
trimmed with the rare fabrics, single or
two-faced ribbons, plain, colored, wa

brocaded, embossed or embroidered in
vines, leaves, flowers aud figures, after
natural models or Oriental designs, in

Arrival* at the Zoo.
The Zoological Gardena in Philadel
phia, received a few daya ago an orang
outang, a male eland, two black wolves,
18 boa constructors, one saddle-billed
stork, one Cinereus eagle, a lot of birds
and monkeys and a female tapir. The
boa constructors ranged in size from
seren to twelve feet, and with the six
large ones already in the Garden
makes, it is said, the largest and finest
collection in the country. Unfortu
nately, the enclosnre in which they are
confined, about 9 by 4, and ten feet
high, is not large enough, and as some
of them are 10 and 12 feet in length,
they are pretty well crowded. Their
food consists of rats, rabbits, guinea
pigs, chickens, &c. These are placed
in the cage alive, when, if the snakes
are feeding, they will be seized at once
killed by constriction, and swallowed
whole. It is calculated by the keeper,
Mr. Sheppard, that it will require
27,000 rats a year to feed them.
At present some of them are shed
ding their skins. This occurs five or
six times a year. The orangoutang is
a rare specimen, between three and
four years old. Sae is the first orang
outang ever owned by the society and
is valued ou account of the scarcity of
fhe species as they are rapidly becom
ing extinct. Mr. Rolling, the keeper,
who also had charge of the cliampan
zees„ lias already commenced to train
her. She will drink from a cup, eat
with a Bpoon, eat mutton chops, rice,
bread and butter, chicken, etc., and
drinks with evident relish the milk
and wine offered her. She is about the
size of the champanzees, but has much
longer arms and a different shaped
head, and is very slow in her motions.
Provided she lives she will attain a
highth of about four feet.

Weather all over the World.
"Old I'rob." is going to make another
advance. As the result of his recent
visit to Europe he hopes to be able to
make many important changes in the
weather service. Among other things
he expects to present every reader
of American newspapers, at the break
fast table, with a report of the condi
tion of the weather all over the world.
At present the signal service is only
able to issue these "world-weather
charts,'' monthly. These charts repre
sent the condition of the atmosphere
am! direotioa of storms and all the va
ried infnrnia'ion so valuable to com
merce. General Meyer hopes to issue
these charts hereafter daily, aud they
will, of course, prove to be invaluable
to commerce. The nations of the world
are all interested in this subject, and
the naval officers of the different coun
tries have been instructed to make
aenrate observations whatever they
may be.
The Bloody ii roil nd.
A special despatch from Grayson,
Ky., tells the following story: "Jesse
Underwood was shot iu thedeor of his
father's house, known as Fort Under
wood, yesterday morning. The Hol
brook party surrounded the house,
threatening to kill anybody who would
dare to bury Jesse's body or rescue
George, who is badly wounded, and,
with the wemen and children, all that
remains of the unfortunate Underwood
family inside of the house. George to
day sent word to the County Judge,
praying for help aud protection. The
Governor has been appealed to, but has
not responded. This is the fifth min
der within the last three weeks in Car
ter County, four of the murdered nieu
Underwoods, and one a member of the
Holbrook tribe, and nothing has been
done by any officer, from the Governor
down to the County Magistrates to
check this fearful bloodshed.
A Young Ctrl'* Suicide.
Miss Mary Kagan, 1!> years old, com
mitted suicide ou Monday morning at
No. 04^ Hudson street, New York. She
was an orphan, and after her mother's
death, a few years ago, she supported
herself by sewing. Her uncle, Luke
Kagan, of Brooklyn, had some money
which had been left to her by her mo
ther, but he refused to let her have it.
To get her money she began a law suit,
and the case dragged i
without any prospect of a speedy ter
mination. Her little hoard began to
melt away rapidly, and she became ve
ry melancholy. Ou Mouday morning
whila «%lone in her room she shot her
self through the right temple with a
small pistol which she #had secretly
purchased. She died almost immedi
ately. A bank book which she left
showed that she had money enough re
maining to pay her funeral expenses.

The Peuii Loan.
Mebsiis. Eiuroas:—Mr. Geo. C. Maris
in commenting upon your notice of the
maturity of tlie l'eun Loan Association,
omits mentioning some important facts,
connected with the closing of the loan
in contrast with the 1'enn Loan. He
says tlie Citizen's Loan is about closing
its full series, iu !l years and 2 months,
hut neglects to state that tlie Auditors,
Messrs p lieu Hawthrop and Wm. W.
Stapler, attest that the loan is still in
debted to the stockholders of the 1st
series t)74,U00.P0 and it will probably
require six or seven years to pay that
amount aud make a real close. The
Penn Loan made a bona fide close pay
ing every dollar due its stockholders in
!) years, !l months and 2 weeks. The
Aid Loan is 12 years old, and owes the
stockholders of 1st series, $54,400.1*0
according to the report of the Auditors.

FACTS

It is amusing to observe the various pretexts put forward by
clothiers as grounds for seeking business. Human ingenuity is fear
fully tortured in the production of "claims " for the various claimants.
One is the best, another the biggest, or the oldest, or the most stylish,
or the mist progressive, and so on, until all appropriate adjectives are
consumed.
