You've looked and compared so often—always with the same result—that it’s second nature now to come to us expecting the largest stock of Boys’ Clothing—and the biggest values. The rash claims others make of their quantities grow discredit for their qualities—and_rightfully—exaggeration is out of place in adver- sing. You could soon understand our great and growing boys’ trade if you saw us placing our orders—giving our instructions— literally ‘watching the stitches as they are taken. More care in our school clothes making than dress clothes making. This week the school specials are mustered in. If the prices seem to contradict their value—remember we; guarantee sati. ‘ac- tion. We expect you'll be surprised—such qualities have never been offered at such prices before. They are now—through the greatest effort—the most superior facilities.

RESENTED BY SPANIARDS The Charging of Duty on Supplies for Cuba. Joyous Scenes Attending the Return of Refugees to Hnvana—Enthusias- tie Railway Passengers. Special Correspondence cf The Evening Stat HAVANA, September 7, 1898. After five days of helpless wondering we received Monday afternoon a telegram from the assistant secretary of war stating that stores must be admitted free of duty or we would be ordered home; telling us to present the matter to the treasury depart- ment and wire a reply. We presented the ultimaium at once, and were last evening informed that they positively could not ex- empt the cargo from duty, though they were stil! willing to make an appropriation and pay the duty if we would turn over the stores to them for distribution. Why they could not make this appropriation and let us «distribute them they do not say. We cabled the reply to Washington and have steam up awaiting our order to make an inglorious retreat. It seems abominable that such an expedition should have such an outcome, but apparently the home gov- ernment does not care to insist on trying to make a Christian of a Spaniard. The people of the town, even the Spanish soldiers, are loud in their denunciation of the government and the stand they have taken, and there is no possible doubt that while tney have stuck to their point and prevented us from aiding their people, they have thrown mud over the colonial govern- ment and its officials that no ume will scrape off or hide. The mail steamer Mascotte arrived from Key West this morning with the first mail and passengers {rom the United States. There were many Cuban refugi on board and their ineeting with the friends who flocked out to meet them was very af- fecting. Even the men hugged and cried over cach other in numbers, und boat after boat started for shore containing happy groups holding each others’ hands and smiling happily at e other, though the t were running down their cheeks. Tne Cubans are as anxious as we to see th> commissioners arrive, and almost the first question each asked as he reached the boat was as to their arrival. They are hop- ing for an immediate righting of a great many of their troubles, and will probably be sadly disappointed at the delay neces- sary in such matters. Sunday we took the train and went out to one of the Cuban hospitals at the edge of the town. On the way we were stopped for a time beside a train returning with a number of Cubans who had been out to see their friends. Some of them saw the uni- forms of the major and captain, and word flew over the train that there were Ameri- can officers going out to the camp. Some one of them suddenly produced an Ameri- can ilag, and for fifteen minutes the whole trainful cheered wildly for the American army, McKinley and “Cuba libre.” During a lull one of them called out: “They said we didn’t want our liberty, now see whether we do!” and they howled louder than ever. Whiie pleasant at first, the en- thuslasm grew rather embarrassing, as there were a number of Spanish officers in the same car with us. Supplies are still coming in from the United States and other points, hut the bulk of it still remains on the wharves, the merchants tn town buying a sack or barrel at a time as they immediately need. A. C. TOWNSEND. ss A REMARKABLE DISTRICT. Interesting Facts Recalled by the Death of Representative Northway. The death last Thucsday of Representa- tive Stephen A. Northway recalls to mind a district that, in some respects, has no parallel among all the congressional di! tricts of the country. The “‘old nineteent as it is familiarly known in Ohio, has had but six men to represent it in Congress in upward of seventy-six years. This is a record that can hardly be surpassed or even equaled by any other district. Further than this, all of these six men were distinguished for their abilities far beyond the limits of their district and state, and in the larger field of national affairs their fame extends and will endure as long as the nation itself. Elisha Whittlesey, Joshua R. Giddings, John Hutchins, James Abram _ Garfield, Ezra B. Taylor and Stephen A. Northway are the names of a gaiaxy of statesmen who brought honor and fame not only to themselves in their day and generation, but to the “old nineteenth district,” the state of Ohio, and the nation itself. Good old biblical names they each bore; how far their names influenced their lives can never be told. Elisha Whittlesey was first elected to Congress in 1822, twenty years after the admission of Ohio as a state of the Union, and served continuously from March 4, 1823, until 1838, when he resigned. He was suc- ceeded by Joshua R. Giddings, who served from 1838 to March 3, 1859. Mr. Giddings declined a renomination, and was succeed- ed by Judge John Hutchins, who, after a service of four years, 1859-1863, was suc- ceeded by Gen. Garfield. Upon the latter's election to the presidency, in 1880, he re- signed his seat in the House, November 8, 1880, and Judge Ezra B. Taylor, who had been elected to the Forty-seventh Congress, was subsequently elected to fill out Gar- field’s unexpired term. Judge Taylor con: tinued to represent the district until 1893 when he voluntarily retired and was suc- ceeded by Mr. Northway, who had since represented the district. He had been re- nominated but a short time since, and as a nomination in that district is equivalent to an election, his service would at least have rounded out the century, but for his un- timely death. Who his successor will be is as yet undetermined, but it is safe to say that the choice of the district will be one who can worthily wear the mantle of a Giddings cr a Garfield. Of these six men all were sons of farm- ers and began life in humble circumstances. All were lawyers by profession. But one, Judge Hutchins, was ever defeated for re- nomination, and that was partly due to the fact that his successor, Gen. Garfield, was a soldier and the war spirit ran high in the western reserve in 1862. Whittlesey and Giddings were soldiers in the war of 1812. Garfield’s army record is too well known to be enlarged upon here. Judge Taylor also has a brief war record. He is the oaly survivor of this remarkable line of congressmen, and although in his sev- enty-sixth y ar. he still enjoys vigor of mind and body, with as keen an interest in the welfare of his country as when he served it so well and faithfully in the lower house of Congress. Whittiesey after he retired from the House was sixth auditor for over two years and first controller for nearly .ten years. He died while holding the latter office. in 1863. He was one of the organ- izers of the Washington Monument Society, and a firm friend of the capital city. Giddings was a noted abolitionist, and famed not only for his ability and learning, but also for his personal courage. Like Garfield and Northway he was tall and commanding of presence, six feet and over in height, with a frame and constitution that nothing could tire. Judge Hutchins was perhaps the least known of these men, but he was a lawyer of the Highest standing, a fluent and ready debater, and but for the logic of the situ- ation at the time of his defeat for renomi- nation, in 1862, by Gen. Garfleld, would have undoubtedly advanced to the very first rank among the members of the House. He was by no means the least among his col- leagues of the Ohio delegation, which in- cluded Pendleton, Vallandigham, William Allen, James M. Ashley, Sheliabarger, S. S. Cox, Albert G. Riddle and John A. Bing- ham. Thomas Corwin and John Sherman also served with him in the House. As to. Garfield and Taylor and Northway, their service, comparatively, has been so recent chat nothing further as to them need be sald, except that matchless ind2ed is the record of these sons of Ohio and of this one congressional district—the old nine- teenth. —_>—_—_ AT THE SOLDIERS’ REST.

My son says: “Don't you believe a word printed about this camp in the papers. The only reports of starvation circulated are by some men who have been in the guard house half their time, and who are cut down to half rations, and forced to work to pay the penalty.” . Any man, obeying orders, has no trouble there, at least, and, while luxuries, such as pie, cake and pancakes like mother made, are not furnished by the governmen every man gets plenty of good, nourishing food. “Well, I have had the fever,” again I read in a letter, “and I could not have been better taken care of at home. I was in tne division hospital four days and regimental hospital four days.” While there are other places in which such things may have occurred, to a great- er or less extent, I am inclined to believe there is quite a lot of troops stil at the government's disposal who will sign n- applieation for discharge, and, as a whole, the sufferings are, as compared to '6l to "65, but infinitesimal. iN.
