A lovely line of imported dress fabrics, the coicest that could be selected. We are especially pleased with our stock of dwss goods, and we are confident our lady customers will also be pleased. The stock in cludes Storm Serges, Camel's Hair, Broadcloths, perfectly lovely. Trimming in endless variety, and the very latest. See our line of Underwear. and we can afford to sell underwear at surprisingly low figures. Do not fail to examine the goods in our carpet department, including body Brussels, lloquet, ingrain, and a beautiful assortment of rugs. Also a full line of floor oil cloths. Wool blankets from cents up. A beautiful assortment of Chenille curtains. Our stock is unusually large, purchased at very low figures, which will enable us to sell exceedingly cheap this year. Come in and examine onr stock while it is fresh. above gentlemen would make any such remark and we doubt very much if they even made such remarks in the heat of debate. There has been a persistent ef fort made by independent papers and democratic correspondents of the Argus Leader this fall to make personal attacks upon republican candidates and speak ers, many of which have no doubt been maliciously false, and this injustice may have prompted the Howard correspond ent to retaliate. If so, it is a weakness, criminal in its intent and not to be con doned even under aggravated insult. We trust, as we believe, that neither of these reports are true, and that time will so demonstrate. Republicans have nothing to fear from maintaining the purity and integrity of the campaign which they have heretofore waged and it is not only too late in the day now, but entirely unnecessary to pursue any other than an honorable course. The day is won, and votes are coming to us fast. Such evidence of weakness as those re ferred to belong to the other parties. An important decision has just been handed down in the United States court Of appeals by Justice Brewer in relation too the "long and short haul" clause of the interstate commerce act. It will rev olutionize not only the rates of tariff or freights now charged, but will over throw the entire oode of rules and regu lations built up on the past intrepreta tion of the law. The whole change is oaused bv Judge Brewer's definition of the word "line." Heretofore, when two roads connecting to carry through freights, say, the Great Northern from Aberdeen to St. Paul and the North* western from St. Paul to Chicago, the two roads BO connecting to carry freights have been called a line from Aberdeen to Chicago and under the wording of the interstate commerce act this con struction of the word necessitated the regulation of charges for local freights on either of the two shorter lines or roads by the price charged on the through line of which these roads were a part. As the law says that no more shall be charged for a short haul than a long one, the charges for through freights have regulated the charges for local freights all along the two roads. But now Judge Brewer decides that the word line in this case implies only the through line and the two roads on local business are also two separate and dis tinct lines that there are three distinct lines in a business sense, independent of each other and that the "long and short clause as applied to the through line does not control the local tariffs of the two short lines.

NEW YOHK, Oct. 20.—The Police Oazette London correspondent sends the following: The appeal of Charley Mitch ell in his case, for which Police Jus tice Vaaghan sentenced him to two months hard labor, came np and was postponed until January.

Tk% Youth of Chicago Start the Cola* MM Celebrattea B«U Rolling. Patriotic Exercises Held te Every House 1* Cook County. The Inaugural Reception and Banquet at the Audilorinm in the Eveniikf. CHICAGO, Oct. 20.—A crisp, invigorat* ing atmosphere, its touch of frost gener ally tempered by the genial rays of the sun as it broke down from a cloudiest sky, comes as a welcome relief after th« rain and drizzle and mist of a day and night, and might be interpreted as a special recognition from the elements of the opening day of the period set apart for the festivities incident to the dedica tion of the structures designed for the purposes of tho world's Columbian ex position. Apparently the hotels are already full as they need be. There are crowds at the large ones and small ones alike, and at some of them, notably at the Audi torium, the Palmer house and the Grand Pacific, it is difficult at times to force a way through the crowds that fill the rotundas, surging in the wake of this man and that of national reputation, and now and then calling for a chew as some* body ia particular ia recognized, In many respects the scenes are viviil remainders of those that were enacted hereabouts but a few months since, when the representatives of the Democ racy of the nation assembled to select their standard bearer. But large as the crowd already on the ground is it is not a circumstance to that which may be expected by sundown. Special trains, packed with men and women of note and distinction, are speeding Chicago ward, representing pretty well every state and territory while the ordinary trains are running in two, three and in some cases, four sections. At times the tide of humanity poured itself out of the Union and Grand Central depots as if it never intended to stop. Is Children's I)ajr. A silken flag—as bright in colors aa it ia superfine in texture—floats proudly from the roof of every public school house in Chicago and Cook county. It is Children's Day. The little ones who toddle to the infant school to learn their first letters, to the big ones who have mounted, step by step on the ladder of instruction to the high school, and are now about ready to go forth and battle with the world—the rising generation— those who will aid a few years hence through the ballot box in controlling the destinies of the nation—these it is that have selected to inaugurate the cel ebration of th week. A committee representing the state and city superintendents had arranged a programme for the celebration in the public schools, and the children exe cuted this order of exercises with vim when school opened. No union or con centration of pupils was attempted, but simuitaneously in the scores of school buildings. The rooms in which the ex ercises were to take place, all decorated in a manner appropriate to the occasion, and commemorative of the great dis covery, were given up to the doings of the happy little ones. The first exercise was the reading of President Harrison's proclamation. This was followed by a flag raising, and the pupils saluted the colon. They also pledged their Alleglanee to the Flcg in ooncert and sang "America." The next feature of the programme was reading of the scripture as an acknowl edgement of the Divine Being. The schools then joined in singing "Colum bus Day," after which the programme was varied according to the grade. In primary grades, the little ones recited patriotic verses and sang little songs while ih the grammer and high school grades historical essays were read, declamations delivered and also sing ing. The next number on the pro gramme was Joaquin Miller's song "Co lumbus," as arranged by O. Blackman. In the upper grades an address was read by one of the pupils, entitled "Tho Meaning of Four Centuries." This was omitted in the lower grades, as well as the ode "Columbia's Banner," by Edna Dean Proctor. "The Flag of the Frso,"( by the school, closed the exerciser*. Cabinet Officers Arrive. Dividing attention during the day with the school celebration was the arri val from Washington of the cabinet officers, members of tka diplomatic corps and justices of the supreme court, to say nothing of the multitudes of other distinguished guests, official and unoffi cial, from every quarter of the country. In the evening a magnigcent inaug ural banquet and reception was given at the Auditorium hotel, at which were gathered more notable personages than at any similar gathering in the country's history. The reception was originally to have been tendered to President Har rison, but he, of couise, was unable to be present, and Vice President Morton as the president's representative,was the central figure. An orchestra of sixty musicians ren dered the programme of dances, and a military band gave the promenade music. Mandolin orchestras played in tho banquet halls. Surplus of 9HI,OOO.^OO.

After the Spanish occupation of the Grand Canary a certain enormous stone was for a long time pointed out as one of the instruments of the Gauuehe athletic courses. The natives had been able to lift it, set it on their shoulders and even throw it over their heads. Their degenerate posterity and the Spaniards could not raise it from the ground. It was reckoned nothing out of tl common for a man to take an untetii ered ox by the horn with one hand and slay it with the other. A certain native born priest of Grand Canary in the Sev enteenth century showed that he in herited some of his ancestors' vigor, for one day, hearing that an enraged bull had broken loose and was in the street, he ran out and grasping it by the leg threw it down, and so hel^ it until its owner was able to secure it. This doughty son of the church before his death chanced to have one of his legs amputated for a cancer. It was then found that his thigh bone was solid, with no trace of marrow. Itmur.t be confessed, however, that the relics of the Canarians now found in their bury ing places lo not bear out the inference that this was a national characteristic, though their dimensions are certainly a testimony of the strength and size of their late proprietors.—National Review. He Thought He Knew Thet Pace. '1 pride myself on never forgetting a face, but as a nouienelator 1 am a far reaching and iridescent failure," said A. G. Smoot as he bruised the crumbs of the table d'hote out of his whiskers. Some years ago i was in a Boston street car when a lady entered whose face was very familiar. I felt that I knew her well, but to save me I could not recall her name. 1 shook hands with her, asked after her health and tried to make myself very agreeable. She treated me to ice water, but that ia a peculiarity of some women, so 1 didn't mind. Finally she told me frankly fhat she had not the pleasure of my acquaintance. 'That bluffed me, but 1 handed bf»r my card. She read the name and shook her head. She was quite sure that she had never even heard of me. 1 sul sided and put on my thinking cap. Was she making game of me or was it pos sible that 1 was mistaken? 1 couldn't make it out. That night I went to tbe theater and the mystery was solved.
