We really believe those that we have opened up for this spring are. Black Goods have an advantage over all the fancy effects—everybody knows how they look in Black—but when you come to chose from the rainbow there is perplexity forth- with. One dies out of fashion’s favor early—the other—the Black—lives on until it is threadbare from service. Never need be any doubts about the blackness of the Black if you buy the best. We didn't say costliest—there is a vast difference. But the product of the best mills. Only two or three we trust—but confidence is never misplaced therein.

There will be also an impe-sonation of ‘Widow Bedott,” an at- tractive program of vocal and instrumental music and an exhibition of interesting Eu- ropean and Oriental views. The Odd Fellows’ Entertainment. The entertainment given by the Odd Fel- lows at the Odd Fellows’ Hall on 7th street last night, for the benefit of the reltef fuad, was largely attended, and many were un- abie to obtain admittance.

Smith of | THE WORLD OF SOCIETY, Two Elegant Receptions Held Yesterday Afternoon. Teas, Luncheons and At Homes in Lent—Personal Notes of Interest. Another spacious and elegant new home! was thrown open to society yesterday after- noon in the house warming reception given by Miss Gale, when her friends were wel- comed to her new house on K street. The house, which is worthy the neighborhood, and which has been in course of erection for over a year, seems to need nothing to keep it in the front rank of luxurious homes. Miss Gale, who has resided here for several IN HOTEL CORRIDORS. Maj. E. B. Stahiman of Tennessee, who is stopping at the Normandie, has quite decid- ; €d opinions on the coal and iron schedules of the Wilson bill. He is thoroughly ac- quainted with the mining industries of the United States, so far as these two minerals are concerned, and if the tariff bill is re- committed to the Senate finance committee will appear before that collection of states- men with an argument in favor of protec- tion. Talking last night, Maj. Stahlman said: “The gentlemen who prepared the Wilson bill are evidently not acquainted with the conditions prevailing in the sec- tions which are most affected by it. In Ten- nessee, which produces an ‘excellent quali- ty of coal and iron, wages are so high that it is an impossibility for us to compete with outsiders who pay comparatively lit- tle for labor. Miners with us get more than living wages. They are worth their cost to us, because a well-fed man is a well | working man. Coal miners in Canada and Nova Scotia have meat on the table once winters on I street, has a large circle of friends, who were present. The guests ag they arrived laid aside their wraps in the small reception room on the first fioor and were received by the hostess in the draw- ing room upstairs. An orchestra played throughout the reception, and Miss Gale had a number of ladies to assist her in| dispensing the hospitalities. Recelving with her were Mrs. Griswold of New York, Mrs. Phenix, Mrs alph Jenkins, Mrs. Alex. or twice a week, because they cannot afford it oftener. American coal miners in my section have meat three times a day, if they want it. It costs us more to get the coal out and more to lay it down where it is wanted. Free-listing it will throw thous- ands of men out of employment. I can see neither rhyme nor reason in legislation of this class. An equalization of the tariff for revenue purposes is what is wanted by the peopie who elected the delegates to the Chicago convention.” » Re Legare and Miss Campbell.

I cannot ride them myself, but I know men who can. And I know that no man can ride. So in- Stantancous, strong and violent is the mus- cular action of these animals that if a hu- | man being were placed in the saddle, and he had legs fifty feet long, and they wrap- ped around his beast like the convolvuli of a boa constrictor, he would have to come off. The Mexicans are the best riders in the world, and you never see them mount an unbroken animal without every precau- tion. They hopple the stirrups, connect them by a piece of rope some two feet long, use two girths to the saddle, and tie across the pommel a heavy stick folded in a piece of blanket, under which, when seated, their thighs fit. With all of these appurtenances they are frequently thrown. The action of the ‘bucking’ horse of the prairies, you must understand, is utterly rent Sedans the action of the civilized orse. e latter jumps with a straight spring from the hind legs. It is easy enough to sit. The former arches his back until his spine forms an apex upon which the rider is perched, goes straight into the air and comes down with all four legs stiff. The jar is terrific. I have seen blood run out of the nose, ears and eyes of ‘bronco | busters.’ Next to the Mexican in natural riding ability comes the southern negro, and after him the western Indian. As for the gentlemen of the Chevy Chase aniseed pursuers, I fear that they it. Use of the pigskin saddle does not {it a | man for rough work. As an instance of the power of certain animals, I recall a mare which used to be one of the attractions of W. F. Cody’s Wild West Show. She was old enough to know better, but she did not. Cody’s force of rough riders was composed of cowboys who had backed everything they could get a bridle on. They could not ride! the mare. After repeated trials and re- peated falls, she was given up as hopeless. They named her ‘Old Dynamite.’ She may be with the combination yet. If she is, you can bet that she is left carefully alone. Yes, the next time you hear one of the ride-anything-that-wears-hair fellows put him down as a liar, but you need not teil him so if he is larger than you.” “There is one thing I like about the west,” said Mr. J. K. Haralson of Indiana, at the National, “ond that is the way in which its people hang together. I have had this lovable trait forcibly brought to mind during my three-days’ stay in Washington. The men from New York do not seem to care where each other hails from. The men from Massachusetts pass by one another without so much as a nod. I think that, in greater or lesser degree, the same is true of the Washington visitors from any one of the eastern or middle states. But ! the men from the west! Why, watch a fel- | low from Indiana go down the avenue. in a little while he will find another man from Indiana. Then they take a drink and ask the barkeeper for the latest news ¢rom Posey county, and the Terre Haute quota- | tions on hoop-poles. Then, like Thackeray | and his friend, who had finished an excei- | Jent dinner in a small Parisian cafe, they | jook at one another and they love one | another. This is true of Montana men, or, Wisconsin men, or Texas men, or Dakota | men, or any men who come from the wind- | blown country where the sun beats down | from a cloudless sky and likes are larger. Sometimes it seems to me that the dwellers upon the North Atlantic coast, in their race for weaith, or power, have dropped some- | thing of the old kindly spirit that a hun- dred years ago made all Americans brothers in feeling and proud of their birthiand.” “It used to be the dream of Seward,” said Mr. W. M. Baxter of Missouri, at Wil- lard’s, “that St. Paul, Minn., would be the capital of a greater United States, which would include Canada, all of the other North American British possessions, and Mexico. That dream will never come true. If three hundred years from now you and I could, like Hamlet's father, revisit the pale glimpses of the moon, we would find the Capitol located in the present capital, both of them very much enlarged, the one the largest city of the continent, the other a building in comparison with which the present St. Peter's would seem insignificant. The people of this country have poured too many millions of money into Washington to desire a change. Since the seat of gov- ernment is here, it will remain here. It costs money to build up capitals, and the great American people, as a whole, are not fond of spending money. You may have discovered the fact by a review of the work of the last four or five appropriations committees.” ——>—___ Witnesses on Pension Vouchers.

If it were equlpped with an electrical plant sufficiently large to transport the same amount of coal to town that these boats would bring, according to the figures of the projectors, combined with business experience, it would cost just &:,- 000,000." ‘These were the words of a man this morning who has given the canal more thought than perhaps any one ever con- nected with it.
