THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, MAROH 18, 1896-TWELVE PAGES. THE PALAIS ROYAL “QPENING.”: The proprietor, his “buyers” and assistants desire to thank the pub- fic, the press and friends for the very many expressions of confidence, good will and praise. Though this eighteenth annual spring “Opening” will not terminate until Saturday, the occasion can be already pronounc- ed the most successful of all years. : = The Third Floor a Favored Spot. We feel assured—we know—that the spring’s display of women's costumes has abolished much of the prejudice against ready made gar- ments. Wecould give the names of well-known ladies who never be fore dreamed of wearing ready-made costumes—who came from sheer curl- osity and who do not leave without practical evidence of being “won over.” The New Costumes. 7They are the costumes you have seen and ad- mired so much in the fashion journals, in such variety of sizes that alterations are an exception. Prices range from $9 to $50. The advantage of a selection dur- ing the “Opening” is choice of a new and unbroken assortment and at a price less than we can afford to per- manently quote. The New Waists. Prices range from 59c to $25 each, but all are this spring's very istest styles and none inferior im any respect. The (9e Waists being of wash material, with laundered collars and cuffs. An “extra” for tomorrow only— in the $5.50, $6.50 and $7 Silk Waists, at only $5 for choice. Seven of the newest and most beautiful ef- fects to choose from. EF We are told that the best collection of Grass Linen Waists are here. Prices are fiom $1.98 to Please ask to sve the Waist with pleated d du siik of various colors; hich latest ned skirt, Madea secs turn-down laud: oliar, ced deep cuffs, vith really which links are w e : C7 Many : - English Piaid Ss in 2 and Novelty Cloth Costumes here at $22.50 are porting Dept. superior to any elsewhere at $25. And note that the “Opening price’ is only $21. « Separate Skirts. Prices up to $25 from $2.25, but the cheapest are cut full widh, properly Hned and otherwise correct in style and finish. As an extra inducement—all the $6.98 and $7.50 Skirts are to be $5 for tomorrow only.

Arrangements for his consecration are new being made, and it is expected that the ceremony will occur in St. Pat- rick’s Church the Sunday following Easter.

After the consecration Bishop German will remove at once to his new field of duty. His departure will create a second vacancy in the faculty of the unt- versity, the chair of apologetics not having been filled since the resignation of Rev. Joseph Pohle. - ——— Sons of the American Revolution.

Those Who Were Heard by the House Committee Today. - The committee on Pacific railroads of the House gave a hearing today to Gen. Hub- bard of New York. Gen. Hubbard spoke et length in an informal way to show that the Union Pacific would be able to meet the requirements of the bill which he recently explained at great length to the committee, For this purpose he reviewed the statements of earnings made by the company for sev- eral years past. He admitted that it might be difficult in the present atate of the money market for the company to raise money to carry out the plan, but said that it was not necessary to sell bonds this year. The first mortgage bonds, maturing next July, might be carried at 5 per cent, and the money market would be more favorable in 1897. cidentally Gen. Hubbard admit- ted that his personal ference would be to accept the Smith advocated bY Mr. Huntington, because that @id not ped the intervention of bankers.
