D. ©, TUESDAY, wanbst 28, 1898—TEN PAGES—WITH SUPPLEMENB “On the Avenue.” Tax wrrry warren or THE Post UNDER THE HEADING OF “ON THE AVENUE" THUS REFERS TO THE “OPENING” OF SPRING AND EASTER NOVELTIES AT THE PALAIS ROYAL: ON THE AVENUE. Yesterday was an ideal day for strolling on the avenue. AsIsauntered up and down that famous thoroughfare I met statesmen, social leaders, sub- stantial business men, politicians, office seekers, idlers and persons fn all the walks of life. ‘Those who wore the happiest expressions were the ladies, who had just finished their Easter shopping and had suc- ceeded in “matching” the fabric that was to complete their new spring gowns. I understand that some of the Easter gowns which will be displayed during the social dress parade on Connecticnt and Massachu- setts avenues next Sunday will fairly dasze the “‘chappies,” who are expected to come out and “‘look ‘them over.” What 10 Per Cent Means. THE “OPENING” SOUVENIRS. ‘The newspaper critics on The Star men, judge the “‘opening” from = pointthan do women. That is evident in comparing the news items that have appeared in both papers, and the criticisms of the lady visitors. Many of the latter quote the Souvenirs as the attraction. They say, too. that the published List of Souvenirs gives no idea of the variety and beauty of the Palais Royal's new season's novelties. So great has been the demand for the Dress Goods Souvenirs that the White Goods and Embroidery De- partments have been moved to the second floor. The ‘space gained on first floor is to be used for Dress Fab- rics, thus we can watt on more visitors tomorrow and with leas confusion. A. cash business admits of selling goods at the least possible advance over the cost of production, so that when 10 per cent discount is allowed at the Palais Royal you may purchase at about 20 per cent less than prevail- ing prices. Let us illustrate with Blacit Silks, &. The Palais Koyal prices for Guaranteed Water-proof Black Japanese Siiks are G8c for 24 inches, 730 for nehes, 80¢ for 30 inches ‘Though these are less than prevailing quotations one-tenth of the amount of your bill is deducted. ‘The foliowing are also superior quality to what is usually offered at the 81.50, d yet 10 per cent discount {s allowed: Biack Satins, 50c and 7: yard; Satin Rhadames, $1, 81.25, 81.50 yard: Satin Duchess, c 89, 82.98 yard: Benzaline, 81. select at our risk—if the silk splits or croc! 81.25, 35, 21.50 yard.

An Unhappy Shoemaker Takes @ Big Dose of Laudanum. Edward Watson, shoemaker, whose shoe shop is at the southwest corner of 8th and I Streets southwest, made an attempt last night to end his life. and, although be was not dead at noon, it is possible that he will not recover. Watson is about fifty yeurs old, and last night before retiring he bade his children good-by telling them they would never again see him alive. Before retiring he drank two ounces of landanum, and when found by one of his chil- dren this morning he was unconscious. A physician was called and the police were | notified. The officers took charge of the pa- tient and had him sent to Providence Hospital for treatment. ——__ ‘The Marine Hospital Service, The applications for appointment to the marine hospital service, Treasury Department, have become so numerous that Supervising Surgeon General Wyman has published the rules governing appointments to the service.
