It's inching along toward “stock taking"—and Datorally we want to get as near the bottom as possi- ble before that time, Our desire chips big slices off the price. There's no sentiment in it. Whole lots are thrown out for you. Choicest novelties “take a tum- ble” with the others, Our stock is different from most, anyway, We haven't a thing that's @ season old. Every stitch of it came into the house at the beginning of this one—and it must 90 out before we slide into the next, The taonarch of trade is price—and we've put a ruler over these “siftings” that will command your immediate attention, PANTS. If there's s boy in the family between 15 and 18 years—he’s wearing LONG PANTS—and those he don’t “wear” out of-he “grows” out of. Never let # Fantaloon bargain pass you. They"ll work into use as naturally asa duck takes to water. Last week we gave he assumes are contrary to the established | 7°49 !mmense quantity to pick over—and the most principles of international law. One of the | of them you took. Some of the choicest patterns were most interesting parts of the correspondence | skipped. is that in which Mr. Blaine convicts the British minister of backing down from his own agreement for a settlement of the ques- tions at issue, and of suppressing information of the intended reference of the agreement to Canada for acceptance. A third point which ‘THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Medium ts worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. One thing will strike the reader of the Bilaine-Salisbury correspondence and that is the diplomatic sharpness of the tone on both sides. The American Secretary reminds the British prime minister that so long as Russia held Alasks no sealing rights in behalf of Great Britain were set up, but that about twenty years after the United States came into posses- sion, or in the year 1886, the pretension was first made. Mr. Blaine also avers that the catching of seals in the manner in which they are caught—in the breeding season—is contra donos mores, and he proceeds to say with an accent of peculiar insistence that if the claim of Great Britain were pushed a step further it would be practical piracy. On his side Lord Salisbury denies that the pursui: of the seal by Canadian vessels is contra bonos mores and finally declares that the government of the United States will be held responsible for the consequences that may ensue from acts which ‘We don't believe there are enough to last longer than tomorrow. May possibly be until Ssturday, Till they're gone— §2_—The 82 grade is @1.25. oe The $ . 0. te he scores in this connection is the fact that te The &. Lord Salisbury misquotes John Quincy Adams, 5 Altogether it may be said that our Secretary of & State has placed himself and the country at great advantage before the world. The letters writ- ten by him are masterly g assuming no more than onr right, but assuming that with all the snap and fire that could be expected even of so dexterous a master of fence as Mr. Blaine. The American contention is puton tae ground of our rights under the purchase from Russia, England's acquiescence in the exercise of those ts for a long period of time and the of- fense of Canada’s action against the law of in- ternational good morals, England wants what is impossible; the right admitted, pending set- tlement of the vexed questions at issue, of the Canadian sealers to destroy the seals at will ‘This coverument is not easily intimidated.

With a vossel of 170 tons having a wedge-shaped hull Explorer Nansen thinks he will make the pole or know the reason why he can't. It may be true, as stated, that the Jeannette relics were carried by these arctic currents around the pole to Greenland and still not be possible for Norse Nansen or any other human being to make the same journey.
