Hence many remnants come— every class of goods composed of a line of sizes has its medium sizes sold first, thereby leaving the very large or very small sizes—sets of China Ware, through some mishap or other, lose a piece or two, leaving the set incomplete—various sorts of goods are soiled, mussed or finger marked from doing service as window or department decorations—other classes of merchandise, such as Glass Ware, Tin Ware, Wooden Ware, etc., are scratched, cracked, dented or otherwise defaced in transit or from improper handling in the store. From these several sources remnants ac- cumulate very rapidly, and we cannot push them aside or pile them up. Our business policy demands their absolute and immediate clearance in order to keep the stock fresh, bright and up to date. Hence Friday of each week is devoted to the selling of remnants —fragments, remainders, useful bits for personal and home use, etc. Tomorrow wiil be a remnant day of unusual importance, as for quick distribution, we’ve made the prices in many cases half and less.

GENERAL AND PERSONAL Evening Star Bureau, No. 529 King street, Bell Telephone No. 106, ALEXANDRIA, Va., October 28, 1897. An Alexandria paper advocates the re- opening of the St. Asaph race trackin the following editorial last night: “Horse races are now run at Morris Park, Louisville, Cincinnati, Chicago and Nash- vilie, notwithstanding the prevailing rain and mud, and bets on them are made at St. Asaph. But at the latter track no horse racing is allowed even in good racing weather. But it is hard to tell what a Vir- ginia legislature won’t do nowadays.” A great many people are of the opinion that to the race tracks which were form- erly conducted in Alexandria is due much of the lawlessness that has always existed there, and the fact that large crowds go to the St. Asaph track to bet on the races every day is said to have caused the down- fall of many young men. It is hoped by many Alexandrians that the racing in Aiexandria county will never be resumed, but that at the next session of the legislature such laws will be passed as will prohibit even pool selling at the tracks, and thus get rid of the motley joan that gather in the county every ay.

The Opera House was crowded again last night with those who had gone to hear the secord rendition of the comic opera, “H. M. S. Pinafore,” by “Sharps and Flats,” the local organization, for the benefit of the Hydreulion Fire Company. The opera was presented in a faultless style, and each singer received well merited applause. The two performances will net quite a snug sum, which will be used in fitting out the new engine house. French Smoot Dend.

After luncheon the party visited the Cor- coran Art Gallery, Washington monument and other places of public interest, and this afternoon called at the White House, where they were received by Mrs. McKin- ley, who expressed a deep interest in the various enierprises conducted under the auspices of the society. The excursionists expect to leave this evening for their several homes in the dif- ferent sections of the country. Among the visitors is Mrs. Jane Bancroft Robinson, the superintendent of deaconess work for the Woman's Home Missionary Society, and who, it was stated, has as- sumed, by request, the responsibility of raising $30,000, or more if needed, for a new building here, to accommodate the in- creasing demands of the Deaconess Home and Training School. Mrs. Robinson was formerly an educator, as Miss Jane M. Bancroft, being a gradu- ate and taking the degree of Ph. D. at Syracuse University. She was for nearly nine years dean of the Woman's College of the Northwestern University. To complete her education she spent two years abroad at the universities of Zurich and Paris.
