After much deliberation we have decided to sacrifice our Housefurnishing Department. Although the most wonderful success has attended it, we are compelled for lack of space to give it up. numerous other departments require all the space we have at our disposal, preventing us from doing full justice to the Housefurnishings, and as we will not put any department upstairs, the only thing for us to do is to close it out. We have had several offers to buy the whole stock in bulk, but we prefer to give our regular customers the benefit of the loss we must suffer in any case, and will inaugurate a sale at prices that will make shor: work of the goods. Our Hotels, Cafes and Boarding Houses will find * all needful household utensils here, and this is a chance to buy at prices most unusual.

DEATH OF MRS. SAGRARIO, Sad Chapter to War History Supplied by Spanish Family. Mrs. Sagrario, wife of the former first secretary of the Spanish legation, Senor Jose Felipe Sagrario, died Monday night at her late residence, 1431 Q street, from nery- ous prostration, after a protracted Illness. The suffering which the war has brought to thousands of Spanish families was never betler exemplified than in this instance. In 1894 Senor Sagrario, who had served in his post of first secr>tary to the legation in this city for a long term, was promoted to the pesition of minister to one of the South American republics. He is a cousin of Pi mier Sagusta, who, having the power, was anxious to help his relative, and, having full confidence in his ability and thorough acquaintanc3 with American affairs, desired to have him appointed to Washington. The change to South America was to make him eligible in the direct line of promotion for this post. After Minister de Lome’s recall this project would have bean possible, only the premier knew that the stay of the lat- ter’s successor would be extremely limited, and would not allow his relation to accept the offer. At the same time diplomatic ne- gotiations were broken off, mail facilities ceased, and during this long period Senor Sagrario’s family, who remained in this city during his absence, have been unable to communicate at all. with him, and have not received, of cou any money for their support. Since peace was restored they have writ- ten to Madrid for tidings of the husband and father, and have done everything in their power to let him know the sad condi- tion to which they have been reduced. So far no reply of any kind has been reczived. Mrs. Sagrario lived almost like a recluse. She spoke no English, and few even of her neighbors were acquainted with her. Dur- ing her illness and prior thereto the family would have wanted for the necessities of life had it not been for the leniency of the storekeepers -in the vicinity, who have shown thir willingness to await remit- tances from Senor Sagrario. As it was, the deprivations which the lady and her fam- ily—which consists of a daughter and three scns—have endured make a heartrending chapter. One son, Achille, has been a student at the Central High School, and was very pop- ular with his associates. — EXAMINING SURGEONS’ REPORTS. Atte eys’ Representatives Given the Privilege of Attorneys. Assistant Secretary Webster Davis of the Interior Department has directed the mod- fication of the rule in force in thé ‘péngion bureau excluding from a review of exam- ining surgeons’ reports all persons save the claimant or his recognized attorney. Mr..Davis has directed that the represen- tatives of recognized attorneys who have written authority from thelr employers be granted the same privilege of examining the certificates of examining spryeons as is provided by law for attorneys in person. The culmination of the various rules and orders promuigated by the pensions, and relatii to this issue, found in his cot er “ is order of October 20, 1897, wherein he declares that “the certificates of ms may i pensions. = It was urged by the commissioner of pen- sions that every opportunity should be et forded atid oVery safeguard adopted that Tapartiel wit it being fected by local coal influe Ey-stx years, four most to 5 McKnew’s 933 Pa.
