Once inside the jail and made confident that the attendants were working in her behalf, Mrs. Berry quieted down and talked rationally.

He said further that he would, as a director of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company, use his influ- | ence witn the officials of that road to fol- low a similar course.

The vote was announced amid enthuslastic scenes and cries of “Long live the republic,” and “Long live liberty.” Former Premier Combes participated in the debate, contending that the measure assured neutrality of religion, moral lib- eration and the social pacification .of France, This is the final parliamentary stage of the bill, which will be promulgated in the offictal journal to-morrow. It will become effective immediately. The Coun- cil of State will devote three months to the framing of the administrative detalls of the new regime. The actlon of the Vatican regarding the law has not yet been definitely an- nounced. The French clergy, while op- posing the measure, appear to be disposed to cenform to the new system.

It is a magnificent illuminated archway in the James Flood building leading from Market street to the largest and finest clothing store in Amenca—thz'lt of S. N. Wood & Company. It is a new en- trance to their superb store at Powell and Ellis streets. The arcade is an example of architectural grandeur un- equaled in the United States. Running along both sides are show windows giving a display of 120°feet. In them are shown the correct and latest in men’s and'boys’ wearing ap- parel—the styles that are worn in New York to-day. Solid oak that possesses an exquisite grain has been used for the ceiling, walls and floors of the display win- do_ws, The frames holding the plate glass—the largest in this city—are of coppered steel. The bases of the windows _consist of Tennessee marble and the floor is mosaic of beau- tiful designs. Pendent helophane globes furnish the bril- liant illumination. . - Almost midway in the arcade is a dome of leade® art glass in L’Art Nouveau. Placed back of the glass are ellectric lights, setting forth very prettily the vari-colored glass. The entire effect of this artistic monument to the en- terprise of a progressive firm is most impressive.

In the-distance is the men’s clothing department, while on the sides are the hat, furnishings and shoe departments. Far beyond are the leather goods. In contrast with the oak in the arcade, the interior of the store is finished in mahogany with scratched brass fittings. There are features on the second floor, too. The depart- ments there are the tailoting, boys’ clothing, furnishings and hats and girls’ coats and dresses. The Art Reception room is especially attractive. Here the ladies. will find writing materials and reading matter, and on the walls are photo- graphic reproductions of famous paintings. Everything about the store is designed with a view to beauty and for the convenience of the customer. The growth of S. N. Wood & Company has been the result of straight dealing with the public and the giving of better values at prices less than those charged by other stores. ; This has been possible because the firm manufactures 2ll its own clothing after purchasing the cloth direct from the mills. It sells at wholesale in other States and re- tails at wholesale in San Francisco. Nobody should miss seeing the new arcade, with its elegant array of stylish clothes and materials. Visitors to the store at this opening will be presented with a book of souvenjr post cards, showing scenes in San Francisco. © - Entrances Sfiamer Powell and Ellis Sts.
