Tho Particulars are Given Below and At the Sale Monday the Goods Will* Speak for Themselves—Poles and Rings Given Awny. This sale, of which we had given pre- vious notice, will be the greatest sale we haveever made. The goods have come to us direct from the manufacturers in England and will be offered by us with a very smail percentage on the manu- facturer’s cost. We made one Jarge sale already this season and much surprise was expressed that our prices were so much less than usually asked by other houses, We have to explain that curtains are mostly sold by carpet houses and as Carpets are sold with almost no profit they depend on their upholstery depart- ment to make up the average prolit re- quired, The result is that curtains and curtain fixtures are sold at profits that taken by themselves are ridiculous. We sell no carpets, and our curtain depart- ment is conducted on the same principle of moderate profits as every other de- partment in the house, resulting in such a large increase in business that we have been obliged to add alarge room entirely devoted to Curtains, Particulars you will find below, and on Monday the goods will speak for themselves, as they always do at our sales. 250 PAIRS NOTTINGHAM LACE CURTAINS -3 YDS LONG—-NICELY BOUND AND FINISHED A SPLENDID DESIGN—GOOD QUALITY OF LACE —AT 95c PER PAIR.

BENNISON BROS. 1519-21 Douglas, i That Crowd on Sixteenth Street. The first thought was another strike, but a little investigation showed it to be a rush of customers at the boss shoe store of Mr. George S. Miller, 612 North Six- teenth street (successor to F. T. Andrew). Mr. Miller is a new man in Omaha, but a glance at his handsome, well-stocked and well-arranged store convinces one that he is right at home 1n a shoe store. It was refreshing to see such rush and bustle as his store presented, himself and two clerks as busy as a Nebraska cyclone raising Omaha dust. Laying all jokes and bombast to one side, Mr. Miller is a thoroughly reliable and well posted dealer, who will not handle inferior goods at :\nf') ce, and those who deal with him will find everything first-class and at prices as low as those of any legitimate dealer. His stock, which is exceedingly well-selected and complete, comprises a full line of Iadies’, misses’ and children's foot wear of all grades, including an elegant line of slippers, children’s school shoes, etc.; also men’s, Wuths‘ and boys shoes in fil‘eat variety. orkingmen’s shoes of all kinds.

If you are looking for a place in which to make a good investment for a small capital we would advise you to inves- tigate South Omaha, There are alreadv four large packing houses in operation at that point and ground has been broken for two more, which will be aniokly erected. Lots have also been sold for a varnish factory, and a wholesale lumber yard will soon be established. Streets are rapidly being graded and everything has the appearance of thrift and “enter prise. On account of her railroad facil- ities and cheap trackage South Omaha is destined to become an important manu- facturing point. Now while lots are cheap is the time to invest. ‘There are a few such inducoments offered, and the mau who fails to grom Dy it neglects his own welfare. C. E.

The New Ex The Nebraska Real has been organized undgow has a mem- bership of one hund and sixteen. Among this number are, to be found the active and cnln-rprislngh eal Estate firms of OUmaha, The Exchgnge was organ- ized for the purpose of protecting at once the interest of those legitimately and reputably engaged in the Real Es- tate business in Omaba, and the owner of property as well, to weed out from this business the irre- nronslblu and dishonest, and thus place the business upon a footing of perma- nence and influence, In the adoption of the system of “‘sole ageney’’ the agent is secure in the matter of delivery of prop- erty after a purchaser has been obtained ange. state Exchange —and consequently will make greater efforts to dispose of property placed in s hands, he question which formerly suggested itself to everyagent after & purchaser was secured for any property was, ‘‘can it bedelivered?’’ Certainly every agent whose experience has been ever so small has suffered the loss of many commis- sions from his inability to deliver prop- erty after effecting a o, There has been no uniform system of transacting business and each individual and firm adopted such forms as best suited them. The orgamzation of the exchange has for its purpose a uniform system and pro- poses to open up to each of its members a larger field in which to operate and surround him with a greater sense of se- curity in the matter of his commission and afdegree of protection against the interference ~ of the ‘'scal- ser and curbstone broker” than e could ever hope to enjoy from any indiyidual effort of his own. The prop- erty owner is likewise benetited by such an organization, from the fact that he enjoys advantages which an _ex- change of this character can alone afford lim, He 1s protected against the possibihty of any agent with whom he has previously .nuu{‘ a piece of property to force him into the sale of it after he has advanced the price. Many instances are known where sev. eral ageots have had listed with them certnin vroperty and owing to the rapid adyance in value the property had either been with- drawn or the. price increased, but the owner had failed to notify all with whom 1t was listed, the result” was that the property was sold by the agent not noti- tied, and the owner compelled to deliver his property at a much lower price than its market value. 1t is for the cor- rection ot these and like abuses that the necessity of some action be taken and hence the organization of the Nebraska Real Estate exchange. The exchange is by no means_an exclu- sive organization l‘,’m offers the advan- tages and protection to every reputable dealer in Omaha. The larger the num- ber the greater the influence, and conse- quently the benefits and advantages are vrovortionately increased. Fine Art in Omaha. Uncomparably the finest piece of Crayon Portraiture ever seen and exe- cuted in this city is at ‘)resent on exhibi- tlon in N. B. Falconer's show window. The portrait, which is nearly life size, is a % figure of & lady arrayed in ev 'Y costume. Kor ease i position, delicacy in finish, detail in drapety, mellowness of tone, this picture is absolutely perfect. The people of Omaha who are judges of fine art should congratulate themselves for having such a superior artist as Mr. H. A. Collins, the executgr of this picture, amongst them, Many of our citizens know too well of Mr. Col)ins’ talents, as his work is to be found in the homes of many of our lcndingb eople and art con- noisseures. The subjectof the above pic- ture is Mrs. George Heyn, wife of the well known Yhu(ogmphar, in whose em- loy Mr. Collins will ‘be in the tuture.

General Logan's Orders For the First Observance of Decoration Day. Monday, May 80, will be observed by upwards of 800,000 union soldiers as *‘Decoration Day.” On May 5, General Logan, then commander- of the Grand Army of the Republic, is- sued “‘General Orders No. 11, designat- ing May 30 as a _day to be devoted to “‘strewing with flowers or otherwise dec- orating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country.” General Lucius Fairchild, now commander-in- chief of the Grand Army, urges that “the eloguent and appropriate words of Gen- eral Orders No. 11, 1868, be taken as in- spiration and guidance for the 30th ot May, 1887, That vid soldiers may do honor to the day and appear ‘‘at their best,” all should be properly uniformed, and to this end large quantities of regulation suits, hats, hat cords, wreaths and but- tons have been ‘‘moved to the front™ and at very low prices will be furnished to all federal soldiers, by L. 0.

Only # h on that lot—only 300 shines, Here's the motor road right through it; $300 and 3 years’ time; gosh! dad spends that much for beer in oue year.” And in the remarks of those boys there is much food for thought. How many worthy mechanics are there in Omaha paying as much for rent as would make their payments on homes in the beauti- ful suburb—how many clerks and others of limited means who spend as much for cigars and other uscless luxuries, as would render them independent of land- lords—how many young couples, longing for home comforts, who endure life in a boarding house because they do not real- ize how ecasy it would be to securc a home in Benson, where choice lots could be had on their own terms. — ———— Peopl The: .

AMUSEMENTS, Y R Al Production of the Corner Grooery af Boyd's Last Night. K] In “The Corner Grocery” there are td* be found many incidents which are nof only new in melodramatic performance but at the same time give evidence close powers of observation on the ng of the adapter. As between the *‘Gre cery’’ and “Daddy Nolan” with respect to the governing ideas, there is but littl difference.

In ate tempting to be natural the author and player give us scenes which occur only in the most extravagant imaginaf tions.

People who have been accustome to greater things, and most of oun theatre-goers arc of that class, have beefi di pointed in_ his work. He suffer badly by comparison, and yet it cannoti be denied that he gives an entertainment, that satisfies no small percentage of hig auditors. For this reason Mr. Sully def seaves the patronage he receives, | METZ'S GARDEN., | To-night the German Comedy confi’ pany appears in *'Liebestrank.” | A GREAT SPECTACLE. ¢ The *“Devil’s suction” will hold t boards at Boyd's opera house, Mond and Tuesday evemings, May 23 and The sale of seats opened yesterday mor! ing.
