LEAGU constructing ing fully lighted and ventilated from the out- Pension Office Magnificently| sso, svrreanded by rooms, is somewhat s Adapted to the Purpose. RETROSPECT. Nine years ago in February we first asked the patronge of the Washington public in a store on Market Space 25x 100 feet. Today we have a large five-story building containing over 50,000 fect of selling space. Then we employed about fifty assistants, to-day we have about 350. Then we had one delivery wagon; to-day we have seven. : Your patronage has been the lever with which the store has been raised to its present position. The cardinal principles upon which we established our business, and upon which it has prospered, are: “Equity, liberality, one price, best intrinsic values and money refunded to all dissatisfied purchasers”—and these priuciples will be conscientiously ad- hered to in the future. ee ‘ ‘ Standing upon the threshold of our tenth business year, more ripe in experience and better acquainted with your diversified requirements in our line of trade, we see even greater achievements in the future, and no efforts will be spared by us to make the next nine years bear equally as good, if not better fruit than the nine preceding years. — Strangers in the city are cordially invited to visit our establishment. Roam through it, ask questions, and make yourselves generally at home. It is a rule of the house not to urge customers to buy, so you will not be importuned. For the benefit of strangers we add that our stock comprises general Dry Goods, Notions, Fancy Articles, etc., and no lower prices for equal qualities prevail anywhere—in this, or any city. — : ine We have opened the greater portion of our spring stock especially for this occasion, and strangers wishing to pur- chase a new dress, or a “souvenir” of their visit to Washington, are offered ample opportunity go satisfy their desires in this line at our establishment.

He developed an industry and a knowl- edge of what news was.and its value which ina short time made him a formidable competito: of the older reporters, and he was known as a that “hustler.” Soon he stood in the front rank, | and men who had been reporting for years found themselves outstripped by the young ex-printer. There wasa vigor in his treatment of news and a felicity of expression that made his work attractive, while he was found to full of suggestions and original ideas that mi him a valuable assistant to the editor. There is a story of a bit of original work which ALFORD DID ON A HANGING that is told by his friends in the profession with great enjoyment. It is said that Halford had a pleasant talk with the murderer a couple of hours before the fatel moment and made tome novel suggestions. “He said thero had been a good deal of wonderment whether a man who is hanged has any consciousness after the drop falls, He urged the murderer to wriggle the little finger of his right hand after hie neck was broken if he could to show that he knew what was going on. He was persua- sive enough to secure the traveler's consent, But the little finger never stirred. ‘A man with Halford’s industry and ability could not long remain as a reporter, and he be- bers the prejudices he himself had to conquer against the re How the Vast Numbers of Men Were ral dress-coat.
