WOUDWARD*~-. LOTHROP, ‘OTE, 11TH AND F STS N.W. ~~ OPEN EVENINGS UNTIL XMAS. gen Lunch Room, Sixth Floor, Tenth Street Building. For a Xmas Gift It is a puzzle to know just what to give, BUT A TOUR OF OUR SIXTY-FIVE DEPARTMENTS WILL GREATLY ASSIST YOU. BACH AGE OF MAN, EACII SEX, EVERY CONDITION OF LIFE HAS BEEN LOOKED AFTER. In buying, consider utility. Such a gift will not go amiss this season. Any little item, how- qver, that tells of thought and sympathy makes Xmas. A book—a twenty-five cent article—is appre- Gated. And you'll be surprised to see what good, useful, appropriate things a quarter will com- mand. It is no wonder we find so much to advertise when one stops to take in the magnitude of this store as it is today. But the bulk of the good things are not printed. Hundreds of them ever reach the papers. As soon as we sell out of a line of goods at a popular price—down goes the next higher priced one to take its place. Not only so, but from basement to fifth floor great Brice reductions occur daily. Dress Goods, black and colored, bear reduced prices—Men’s House Coats and Smoking Jackets Bear reduced prices. Blankets, a lot of Linen Dinner and Luncheon Sets, Tray Cloths and Towels; ‘Men's Slippers; Women’s Trimmed Hats and Fancy Feathers; Aprons and Infants’ Cashmere Long Gloaks bear reduced prices. High-class Bric-a-Brac, Lamps and Clocks have had their prices cut @zactly im half. All the Fine Jointed Dolls go the same way. For your benefit, as well as urs, please bear in mind that these reductions are not on old shopworn goods, but for this season's best things, and for the simple purpose of lessening the stocks by Xmas. Also please bear in mind this fact—whatever Gifts you buy here you can get twice the number of last season for the ame amount, and yet-—the quality of a single article hasn’t been lowered a whit. Tomorrow and Bext day we'll endeavor to make our columns just as helpful to you as possible by giving a list @€ such things as you need now, and where you can find them.

Sailors ‘‘Shanghaied” For Service Against Mello. ANOTHER BATTLE FOUGHT. LONDON, Dec. 20.—A dispatch from Per- nambuco, Brazil, received this afternoon, states that the dynamite cruiser Nictheroy, having coaled and taken of board provi- sions and water, has gone south. A dispatch from Pernambuco, dated yes- terday, says that the Nictheroy had shipped sixty volunteers as members of her crew. The zemainder of the men to make up her | The Nictheroy. crew were pressed into the service. Many of the men captured by the chain gangs were placed on board the Nictheroy in irons. ‘The dispatch adds that there was furthe> cannonading between the | forces and the insurgent warships at Rio | Janeiro on Monday. What damage, if any, done is rot stated. It is further said that Capt. Picking, who is in comand of the American fleet, de- clines to guarantee an ancho-age to mer- chant vessels there, either while discharging or loading. Since the receipt of the above advices at Pernambuco cable communication with Rio has been inter-upted. NEW YORK, Dec. 20.—The Herald's spe- cial from Bahia, Brazil, says ews has been received here from Rio that a battle has just been fought between the insurgent fleet and the loyal forces, the result of which is doubtful. The rebel land forces are said to be steadily drawing nearer to the capital from the south. The ship agents of the Nictheroy, Peix- otc’s new dynamite cruiser from New York, have solved the problem of getting a crew for the ship to fight aginst Mello’s men-of- war by a simple method. They have shanghai sixty native Brazilians and The Aquidaban. sent them on board in irons. Strong pro- tests are being made by American residents in Pernambuco that their government is not provecting their interests as well as it should The Herald's correspondent at Rio says that the Agquidaban and the have left Ihla Grande for some unknown cause. Some surmise that they have gone to meet.the Nictheroy, others think they are seeking to keep out of the dynamite cruis- er’s way. It is reported that the Nictheroy has left Pernambuco for Rio. eneailtinseaet READY TO FIGHT TAMMANY. Mass Meeting Democrats in New York Tomorrow Night. Ex-Secretary of the Treasury’ Charles 8. Fairchiid as revealed an energy and en- thusiasm in the past two days even greater than he showed during the time of the anti-snapper excitement of a year ago last spring, says “Holland,” the Philadelphia Press correspondent at New York. Yes- terday, for instance, Mr. Fairchild, with the rough draft of 2 platform, upon which it is expected that the new democracy of New York state will stand, visited friends in the vicinity of Wall street, for this new experi- ment in regenerated machine politics has ment within a stonethrow of the New York stock exchange. On Thursday evening he will mount the historic platform at Cooper Union, present the platform, make a brief speech and ask for its adoption, and then he will turn to Frederic R. Couderi and ask him to present such communication as seems wise to him to do. been thought necessary to do so. No such formal proceedings were taken elsewhere in the state, but those who have been conspic- uous in their opposition to the Hill and Murphy machine have been invited to be present or to send a respectable delegation to represent them. A number will come from Buffalo, and they will be the men who recently fought Sheehan and crushed him in that city, or at least a representation of that association. The anti-Hill element in Rochester will be represented by a consid- erable delegation. Not so many will come | from Utica, but four or five men are ex. pected who are of considerable prominence among the demiocrats of central New York A large delegation will come from Al- bany and a considerable one from Troy, but it has been understood that the Trojans are rot to be rypresented by any democrat who has been conspicuous for personal hos- tility to Senator Murphy. The Brooklyn independent democrats whose success at the ate election did much to inspire those who have this new organization in view will be well represented, and it is expected that some one or more of those represent- ing democracy in various parts of the state will be called to the platform to make speeches. —-oo—_____ Over a Hundred.

The firm comprises two brothers, Edward and Alfred Mayer, each having their parti- cular end of the business to look after. “Mr. Alfred Mayer attends to the comfort aw4 convenience of customers and to emptying the shelves, while Mr. Edward Mayer keeps constantly in touch with the wholesale markets of the world, paying frequent visits to New York and keeping the sheives groaning with the weight of new and de- sirable merchandise.
