NEW YORK, Sept. 8.——Lab0r Day morn~
ing dawned with cloudy and threatening
‘skies, but at '11 o’clock the weather cleared
and the sun came out brilliantly. The
workingmen celebrated the OCCasion by
two parades. They were made respective-
ly by the Central Labor union and the
Central Labor federation. The Central
Labor union’s parade formed promptly at
9 O’clock in TVashingtou square, but it
was 10 o’clock before it got under way.
At that hour, led by Grand Marshal
Michael J. Feuton and his aids, all
mounted, and preceded by a vigorous
brass band, the procession was led around
the right of Washington square to Fourth
street, to Macdougal street, to Waverley
place, to Sixth avenue, to Greenwich
street, to Seventh, to Thirteenth street,
to University place, to Fourteenth street,
to Fourth avenue, to Seventceth street, to
Fifth avenue and to Fortieth street,
where it dispersed.
The long parade was drawn up in mili-
tary order and the workingmen marched
like veterans. The various unions form—
ing it were arranged in two brigades of
three divisions each. A feature of the
second division was the Lady Gotham as-
sociation, composed of 300 women laundry
workers.
The Central Labor federation’s parade
was formed in Fourth street, west of the
Bowery. It- was led by Grand Marshal
August IValdinge to Third avenue, to
Stuyvesant place and Second avenue, to
Fifteenth street, to Avenue B, to Clinton
street, to Rivington street, to Norfolk
street, to First street, to Avenue A, to
Tenth street, to Third avenue, and from
there to Ninth street, where it disbanded
after being reviewed by the grand mar—
shal. Appropriate mottoes were carried
in both parades. The afternoon and even-
ing were devoted to pleasure. A number
of picnics and athletic contests were held.
A Great Time in Buffalo.
BUFFALO, Sept. 8.——Labor Day was cele-
brated here on a scale of unusual magni-
tude. Special prominence was given the
character of the celebration by the pres-
ence, as an honored guest of the city and
its toilers, of Governor Hill. The governor
was escorted by the citizens’ committee to
the Iroquois hotel, where breakfast was
served, after which~ his excelleucy took a.
seat upon the balcony of the hotel to view
the parade.
The labor procession formed on Niagara
square. Err—Congressman John L. Far-
quhar acted as grand marshal. Promptly
at the appointed hour the parade moved
forward in six divisions. The route was
from the square up Franklin street to
Seneca, to Michigan, to Broadway, to
Spring, countermarchin g up Broadway to
Ellicott, to Eagle, passing in review be-
fore the governor and on to Main, down
Main to the dock, whence steamers con—
veyed the paraders to Germania park,
where the Labor Day festivities took
place. Immediately upon the passage of
the last division of the parade, the gov-
ernor was escorted to city hall, where a
public reception was given. Then the re-
ception committee took the guests in car-
riages about the city, visiting Fort Porter,
where a salute was fired.
The party then proceeded to the Country
club house, where lunch was served. Af-
ter lunch the governor and his escort
drove to Germania park. The governor
made an address on the labor issues of
the day, which was loudly cheered.
None but American Flags.
BROOKLYN, Sept. 8.——Busiuess was gen-
erally suspended here, and the working-
men paraded in honor of Labor Day. There
were two parades—one of the organizations
forming the Central Labor union and the
other of those forming the United Broth-
erhood of Carpenters and Joiners of Amer-
ica. Both parades were viewed by large
crowds, and all along the line of march
the paraders received enthusiastic ap-
plause. A conspicuous feature of both
parades was that none but American flags
were displayed. After the parades abig
labor picnic was held at Ridgewood park.
Jones Spoke in Troy.
TROY, N. Y., Sept. 8. —Labor Day was celeé
brated here. The parade of labor organi-
zations was the largest ever seen in Troy.
A mammoth mass meeting was held at
Rensselaer park in the afternoon, which
was addressed by Lieutenant Governor
Jones on the prison labor problem.
A Parade and Sports.
ALBANY, Sept. 8,—Labor Day was Ob-
served here in the usual manner. There
was a parade in the morning in which
about 8,000 men participated. In the after-
noon there were sports on the fair ground.

THE DAY IN NEW JERSEY.
A Big rarnde in Jersey City—A Split in
Newark Unions.
JERSEY CITY, Sept. 8.——Labor Day was
appropriately celebrated in Jersey City.
he public buildings and banks were
c osed and business generally pretty well
suspended. There was a big parade of
workingmen. It was divided into two
divisions. Ira S. Busby, of the Ship Caulk-
ers’ union, was marshal of the first section,
anu Frank Mooney, of Painters’ union,
No. 109, was in command of Section N O. 2.
The parade was formed at Grand and
Washington streets at 10 o’clock in the
morning. It was reviewed at the city ball
by Mayor Cleveland and other city Offi-
cials. The line Of march was through
Washington street to Montgomery, to
Newark avenue, to Jersey avenue, to
Eighth street, to East Hamilton place, to
Pavonia avenue, to Henderson street, to
Newark street, Hoboken to Jefferson
street, to First, to Congress, to Central
. avenue, to Berg’s park, where the proces-
sion disbanded.
No Parade in Newark.
NEWARK, Sept. 8.—Although distinct-
ively an industrial city, Labor Day
was not observed as a whole by the labor“
organizations of Newark. In former
years the day was celebrated with a grand
parade, participated in by thousands, fol-
lowed by a picnic at one or more of the
parks. The dissatisfaction and split, how-
, and building of $25,000.
over, in the ranks of organized labor last
year has virtually dismembered the labor”
organizations, with the result that the
only observance of the day was the closing
of all factories and stores at noon. In the
afternoon a picnic under t‘n- auspices of
District assembly, NO. 51, ii. .rf L., was
held at Caledonian park.
Pnters ‘n‘s Celebration.
PATERSON, Sept. 8,—Labor Day was cele-
brated here by a parade and inspection of
the police and fire departments by the city
officials and citizens in the afternoon, a

noou. Nearly ewry store in the city was
closed and business was at a standstill.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 8.-Tens of thou-
sands of workiugmen and women cele-
brated Labor Day in this city by taking a
day’s rest and recreation. There was no
organized celebration of the day by the
laboring classes. There were a. number of
excursions and picnics by different associ-
ations and thousands went out of town on
individual jaunts. Most of the mills and
large manufacturing establishments shut
down.
A Falling Off in Detroit.
DETROIT, Sept. 8;——The Labor Day cele-
bration in this city showed a great falling
off from former years, about 2,500 men be‘
ing in line in the parade, against 5,000 and
10,000 one and two years ago, respectively.
. The greatest defection was in the carpen-
ters ranks, only 300 men turning out,
against 2,500 two years ago. After the
parade the day was celebrated by games at
Recreation park.
Rain Stopped the Sports.
BOSTON, Sept. 8.—A . heavy northeast
rainstorm efiectually prevented she pro
posed Labor Day convention and caused
the indefinite postponement of numerous
picnics and athletic sports. All business
was generally suspended. At other cities
in the vicinity, at Concord, N. H., and at
Portland, Me, the exercises of the day?
were curtailed by the stormy weather.
The Day in Cleveland.
CLEVELAND, Sept. 8.—Labor was gener
orally observed here as a holiday. Nearly

ings were liberally decorated, and 15,006
workingmen, after parading through the
principal streets, went to Forest City park,
Where a monster picnic was held.
Parade and Picnics in Baltimore.
BALTIMORE, Sept. 8.—Labor Day was
generally observed here as a municipal
holiday. The Knights of Labor and the
Federation of Labor, after parading, held
picnics in Schuotzeu and Darley parks, and
the railroads carried crowds to Pen Mar,
the famous local summer resort. The day
was pleasant.
Rain Interfered at Hartford.
'HARTFORD, Sept. 8.—La.bor Day was

T. M. Harris, of Ritchie county, a member
of the court martial which investigated
the death of Lincoln and condemned Mrs.
Surratt, has just finished a history of the
assassination of President Lincoln. The
history was compiled from the stenog-
rapher’s notes, which are in General
Harris’ possession. In the book General
Harris boldly asserts that Jefferson Davis
and certain members of. his cabinet were
interested in and encouraged the assassi-
nation of Lincoln. He fortifies the state

SALEM, . Ore, Sept. 8.——By each groom
swearing falsely as to the age of the other’s
bride, two marriage licenses were issueé

erable excitement. Two young traveling
photographers, Fred S. Bynon and Louis

No one will deny that Gloves are absolutely indispensable to the attire
of “fair woman”—-she will have them,‘be they good or bad, and
none knows better than woman that the average glove is I
uncertain—like love, a lottery. Absolute perfection we
deem impossible and do not claim, but in the new
. Foster stock for the coming season we ofi‘er
goods that. we believe, will satisfy our
customers and enhance our
reputation.
KID GLOVES AND TROUBLE.
To the majority of merchants who retail Kid Gloves these words are
synonymous, for the sellers maintain that, not only do they lose money on
the stock, but that gloves cause more trouble than all the other departments
together, They say, “Gloves are a necessary evil—we must keep them, but
cannot make a cent on them, for they are all bad.” It is a fact that meet
Gloves (except the higher priced) are unsatisfactOry, andbeing all imported,
this fact is due in a large measure to the high tariff, which necessitates
squeezing the manufacturer on his prices, so that he must use inferior
leather, hence “tribulations and sorrow.” Believing that the true solution
of the difficulty lies in "paying the utmost limit of price and curtailing else-
where, we have proceeded on these lines and expect results that will not
only please our customers, but will redound to our own good in increased

Next to color, consider weight. If too heavy, they are fuzzy. If too
light, they are tender and break on the seams. It is a mistake to test the
leather at the wrist; the hand and fingers are to bear the strain—test it
there.
PROPER SIZE.
The size that gives full play to the fingers. Four-fifths of the damaged
Gloves are too small for the wearer. “Six into five will not go,” even with
the assistance of a practical fitter.
PUTTING ON.
Use a little powder and much patience. Turn back the top, insert the.
tips of the fingers, rub slowly and firmly until they are smoothly covered
(never pull nor press between the fingers); next insert the thumb in the
same manner. Button the second button from the palm first. Never hurry
-—durability and appearance depend upon the observance of this maxim.
GUARANTEE.
If a Glove breaks or a stitch starts the First Time it is put Ion,vit
should Not be Worn. It is then returnable ; not otherwise. '
FOR SHOPPING.
The “Biarritz” or Sack Glove is the favorite, because
lst, They are easily put on and taken off.
26, They fit well and look well.
3d, They require no fastenings.
4th, They are strong and durable.
They are not Dress Glovesin any sense, and depend upon utility for
popularity;
FITTING.
TO obviate any misunderstanding, have Gloves fitted at the time of
purchase. The highest priced Glove is liable to imperfection, but this is
always discovered the First Time the Gloves are put on, as they are then
subjected to the greatest strain. .
"FOR WALKING.-
Glace, or dressed kid, is again finding favor on account of its durability
Suede, or undressed kid, is preferred by some on account of its pliability,
for which strength is sacrificed. Mousquetaire wrists and Foster’slacing, in
Suede, seven hook length, are both popular. The “William,” “Fowler” and
Fosterina” have no equal for strength and beauty. The “William’,’ and
“Fowler” lacing and the four-button “Louvre” are serviceable. ‘
FOR DRIVING. I
A light-weight glove will never give satisfaction as a driving glove.
Black Gauntlet Gloves are deservedly popular. We have a full lineof
sizes in these gloves at $1.50. -
FOR wrunnrns, usurious AND. PARTIES
Suede is in vogue, the length varying with circumstances, from
12-button Mousquetaire (elbow length), to 24-button (shoulder length). Silk
also has its devotees. Mitts and Gloves in the same lengths are made in a
large variety of fancy shades.
