Goldenberg’s. “The dependable store.”’ 6,140 50c., 75c. & $1 shirtwaists,23° We have just consummated the greatest shirtwaist deal ever made. We have contracted to take a maker’s surplus stock, consisting of over six thousand garments. The thoughts of doing such a thing at such a time would make the average merchant shiver. Not one in a hundred would attempt to dispose of such a quantity of shirtwaists in addition to his regular stock. We have an abundance of nerve! When the Leecke stock was offered us and we saw an opportunity to offer the people of this city the grandest values of their life, we bought it. And now along comes this maker-- acknowledged to be the creator of the best-made and best-fitting shirt- waists which are turned out--and he offers us shirtwaists at less than the cost of the material provided we take his whole surplus stock and leave him free to go ahead making his winter waists. - Goldenberg’s. “The dependable store.” 5 lots--a clean-up in shoes.

Amiss Recommends Change in Methods of Transfer. As a means of relieving the congested condition of 15th street between G street and New York avenue Lieut. Amiss of the ‘st precinct recently recommended to Maj. ylvester, the chief of police, that the town to the 14th street éars, and vice versa, could walk from one car to the other on the north side of Pennsylvania avenue without having to cross any car tracks, ts. vester explained to the District joners that he had, in the consid- of the ns of street railway irgs, the protection of lives and prop- and the enforcement of the regula- tions at these poi suggested to his ileu- tenants the necessity of keeping the streets free of obstruction by people waiting to transfer. Lieut. Am! Suggestions were nade as a result of his suggestion, an} Maj. Sylvester remarked that it appeared to him they could be carried into successful effect. Wight: “I heve considered the recommendations which the public would probably object, and which does not remedy the difficulty of crossing car tracks in all cases, as a car going east from Georgetown and stopping in froni of Riggs’ Bank would require the passenger to get off on the south side of the car, and, tn order to take a 14th street ear going north, which had stopped in front of Fussell’s, he would be compelled to cross four car tracks in order to reach it, “While the crossing at this point is very much congested and crowded, as a matter of fact there are comparatively few acci- Gents there, and the Commissioners are of the impression that the present arrange- ment is better than the one suggested.
