The “at Trade.
Talks with prominent manufacturers
in various lines bear out our prediction
that the season‘s trade would prove an
average one, and there is every prospect
that the month of October will add very
materially to the average. ' By the mid-
dle of the month, however, many sales-
men will be on the road with spring
samples, particularly in the soft hat line,
and if the present indications 0 pros~
pcrity are realized. the next few .. cars
will do much to bring the profits price
more upon the right side of the ledg r.
A hopeful sign in the opinion of any
is the prospect of an advance in raw? ma-
. terials,:as busincss is always more antis-
fuctory when done upon a rising market.
Unless all indications fail there will be a
vet y material advance in the price of but-
ter‘s fur, and as there is not~ much proa-
pect of a decrease in the price of labor,
it is evident that hate Wlll be higher In
price for the a ring trade.
The city job rs have been very busy
during the past few weeks, but. just at
present there is a falling - off in orders
from the retail trade. The manufactur
era who enter directly to retail trade
have been driven to death, as the saying
is. and are hots?! up on their orders——
but the demon is slacking up. Taking
it altogtther the fall trade must be con-
sidered as a good one, end to it certain
extent rotitable, but not so much so as
the tria s and vexationsof the business
ought to award—flutter and Furrier.

Illstory of this lllt of Slang.
The-word “chestnut“ wtll surely have
to go into the next editicn of the un—
abridged dictionary. The history of this
bit of slang has been a queer- one. Its
0"ng will twver be definitely known.
although a. dozen stories of it have been
told. Three years ago the word was in
common use among printers in Boston,
in its slang sense, and from the compo:-
Ing rooms it came down to the editorial
floors. ' After a good deal of use inside
the various newspaper offices it naturally
got into print.

During the east few days there have

the Inqurnt warnings which travellers

of entering or leaving trains is when

most of the horrors at present attending

The Anti-Snlunn .“nvelneht.
\tht the anti~salmm movement will
amount to will depend upon whether it
is a temperance movement for the sake
of the Republican party. or a Republi-
cnn movement for the sake of temper-
ance. At present it is altogether too
much of the first to he promising. '
But though Weare not verv sanguine
of immediate resu’te from either the Re~
ppblican or the Prohibitory movement
in their present forms. we are very san-
guine of the final results of the recent 8;:-

eventually emergea law which will close
the aaloon without invading the privacy
of the home. At all events, the saloon
must go. It is evil. and only evil and
that continually. In its best estate. as a
private club where men find good fellow-
ship and pleasant social cheer. it draw-3
the husband away from his wife and the
father from his children. In its worst es-
tats. as a breeder of drunkards, it sends
him home a madman. Every dram~shop
is the center of tragedies more direful
than any dramatic art ever put upon the
stage, of horrors'more sickening than
those against which Mrs. Stowe awak-
ened the conscience of the American
public by "Uncle fl‘om’s Cabin." The
growth of a public conscience against
the saloon in England and America. is
one the best and most hopeful signs of
the times. And the public leader who
does not see it is a blind leader of the
blind, who will fall himself and lead his
party into the ditch—The Christian

A prominent member-of the democrat-
ic party, who has held a number of im~
portant offices in this vicinity, said to a
reporter of the Advocate the other day:
“I am a democrat, but when the part
nominates such men as E. S. Cleve an ,
and fails to reuomiuate such men as
Congressman Seymour, it makes me
sick. It’s only luck when the party does
.elect a man—notgood management.”—

Mr. Brirnum is anxious that the work-

the administration, and he prufesses to

in Connecticut will be composed for-the

that Mr. Barnum desires. If the next

next for the only possible chance that
the Democrats have of securing a major-
ity in the legislature is by trading off
their candidates for governor for votes
for representgtives. This is said to be

General Hawley is not only one of the
most respected national leaders of the
republican party. but as a senator of the
United States he has given distinguished
honor to his state. No other common-
wealth of the Union has been more ably
represented in the senate than the com-
putatively insignificant one of Contmcti-
