It was a daring step for the old house of II. J. Oil len to jump at a bound from a credit house to the eash basis ; but it has been done, and with a sucoess that has surprised all. No other bouse in Ottawa could do it, and sucoeed. The advantages the house can offer by this change are obvious to all buyers, and these advantages multiply when the great business of this house is eonsidered, enabling it to purchase at the very lowest figures ; by selling, as the house does, on the smallest margin, which Is only possible with a cash ujstem, the buyer reaps every possible advantage which cash in the hands of both buyer and seller can give them. This is the secret of the new system at II. J. Gillen's, and buyers have not been slow to find oat that this house is now making lower prices in all lines of goods than have ever been known in Ottawa. The attention of buyers of cloaks are par ticularly reminded of the great bargains offered in that line, as well as in shawls, es pecially in the way of plush garments. The dress goods department is also full of bargains in seasonable novelties and stand ard fabrics, to which attention was called last week. In flannels, blankets, domestics and fall and winter goods of that kind, also, special bargains are offered whioh buyers will not be able to duplicate in this county. Never in the history of the house has it been able to do more for the public than now in the way of saving them money. All prices have been reduced to a cash basis, and the house asks all buyers to call. Barney Johnson was caught in the act of burglarizing Tom Riordan's saloon, on Madi ison St., on Thursday morning, by two men hired to watch the plaoe. lie had been pil fering liquor and cigars from the place nearly every night for a week.

The ceremony took place in the ohnroh, whioh was adorned with a liberal display of flowers, and was preoeded by the evening servioe, with a full choral service, conducted by a surpliced boy choir. After giving a detailed account of the wedding, the News adds : There has not been a fitter, happier mar. riage in St. Paul in many a year. Mr. Pope's parish is devotedly attached to him, and all who know him esteem him for his faithful, good and charitable life. The lady whom he has so happily wed is worthy to be his wife. Thoso who know her speak of her sweetness of disposition, her kindness of hoart, and her good works in the parish or the church of the Good Shepherd.

A. Ellsworth, of Forest City, Iowa, an old resident of this county, was in the city this week. Among other inoidents of life in the "wild, wooly west" in Iowa, he called attention to a convention held by the repub licans of Winnebago and Hancock counties, who were trying to nominate a candidate for the legislature. The counties were equally divided, and each had "a man." After balloting for 2,300 times (I!) they ad journed for a week, to go at it again ! The democrats, meanwhile, being in a hopeless minority, sit on the fence and watch the in teresting contest. Word has been received from Lincoln, Neb., that Miss Mae Montrose, daughter of J. E. Montrose, late of this city, is very ser iously ill with typhoid fever. On Friday night last she was taken with a chill, fol lowed by convulsions, and little hope was entertained of her recovery. As no news has been received by friends here since, they have hopes she may yet recover. Bridget O'Day, aged ninety-seven years, died at the county asylum on Wedoesday evening. She had been an inmate of the institution for over twenty years, and was feeble minded. CANT COMPLAIN. Alsohuler's Keeping Up With the March ot Progress.

The story that the bridge company would lock it up and not allow it to be used till the contract price is paid is without any foundation whatever, exoept in the vain imagination of some wiseacre whose enmity to Mayor Sherwood was father to thought. It is a substantial structure, and will be very acceptable to the people of that seotion of the city.

M. & C, DENTISTS, Opera House Block. Twentj-Flrit Annual Fall Openios;. A large placard in one of the front win dows of J. E. Scott's dress goods store, yes terday, attracted everyone's attention. It bore the legend, 1808 plus 21 1839," announcing that twenty-one years ago the firm of Soott Bros, had their first fall open ing. They were then a young firm of mer ohants, in rather pent-up quarters for their stock, on the west side of La Salle street, near or at the present jewelry store of Mr. Trask. Though their assortment then was not large, It was ample for the town and oountry, and in the days when fashionable ladies were given to plainer oostnmes than are required now. While the stock did embraoe then the very latest New York, Paris and London agonies in fine and fancy goods, such as they are now obliged to keep, the goods were substantial and seasonable, and fully up in variety and quality to the best in Chicago. They have kept up with the progress of the times and are fully abreast with the best and largest western houses in all that is required to make a first-class dress goods establishment. A look through their large store rooms be low and above, is a surprise to the stran gers visiting Ottawa for the first time, and a pleasure to the shop goers. Their cloak room is a wonder of itself, being filled with the most elegant velvet cloaks of all sites, that the best taste oould desire. Their car pet room is a fairy palaoe of rich and lux urious fabrios, the millinery superb and their dress goods a wilderness of beautiful artioles, beyond the power of our penoll to desoribe. The 18d9 opening will continue today and this evening, and all who admire an elegant display of rich and lovely goods should visit Scott's extensive house before the exhi bition is over. We are assured that the prices will be found satisfactory to all pur chasers. l.a Salle Co. Teacher' Aaaocfatlou.
