W. 8. Hall & Co.’s New Home.

Many years ago when the firm of W.
B. Hall it Co. made their bow to; the
Bridgeport dry goods shoppers, they
conformed to circumstances by locating
in one of the hitherto most uninviting
structures on Main street—a building
which had nothing to recommend it
outside of its associations. Buyers have

' no sentiment. They want simply mat-
ter of fact, low prices for good goods.
This firm, catching on to that idea,
adopted a policy which insured their
instant success and they maintained
and have enjoyed it till now, when, as
it would seem, circumstances are con-
forming to them. One of the biggest
capitalists of the city feels his warrant
for placing upon this corner which this
firm have given a name, one of the
most substantial and elegant piles in
the way ofa building and it is to be
the new home of the firm.

It is not often that a home, so worthy
of the industry drops down, as it were,
upon the occupants, enabling them
during the prOcess of adjustment to go
on with their buying and selling the
same as if no change was being made.
But the people have witnessed the
peculiar operation, and have been able
to realize that not the slightest inter-
ruption to business has crept in—that
a great winter stock was disposed of, a
spring stock took its place, and that
now. on time, and in keeping with the
arrival of roses and strawberries a sum-
mer stock of vastness and beauty which
the ladies are taking delight in. select-
ing from, is afforded, prices all round
being Satisfactory and unaffected by
the workings of tariff bills. The struc-
ture now so rapidly advanced is in
keeping with the record of the firm
whose abiding place it is to be, and the
feature of the picture which it presents
is a central mart, where everybody
goes when in search of good things ’at
fair prices. That the stock now offer-
ing is in keeping with the promises of
the firm may be proven by a stroll
among the counters and an inspection
of what they contain. Never has there
been a variety so extensive and uniform
as to high quality. This would seem to
indicate that the firm would have their
patrons understand that they are look-
ing to completeness, which will show
itself when the building is done, or
their part of it before next Thanksgiv-
ing. Until that time the same lively
scenes will be witnessed that have char-
acterized the firm’s work since the first!
blow was struck and the first brick laid-
by way of construction. Shoppers can
save time as well as money,'and buying
at home the goods they need, and can
do so atthis store especially pending

the great change that is so soon to be

wrought in it. E

 

When I began using Ely’s Cream
Balm my catarrh was so bad I had head-
ache the whole time and discharged a
large amount of filthy matter. That
has almost entirely disappeared and I
have not had headache since—J. H.

CANNOT rmb RICHARDSON.

Yet Fear of the “Bandit” Still Con-

vulscs South Shore People.

NEW YORK, July 17.—-Tom Richardson is
still at large. The weary search parties
patrol the swamps about Islip, L. I.
’Squire Waller keeps his gun handy and
guards With Winchester rifles linger about
his house in Bay Shore.. But the outlaw
has not beengseen and the searchers are
tired. A few leaders keep them going in
the hope of ’earning glory and $1,750 re-
ward. E;

The latest news is that Richardson was
seen in the swamps not far from the sec-
ond cave, looking pale and emaciated from
hunger and fatigue. His appearance near
the caves, some say, is to get possession
of money hidden there.

The man who believes most sincerely in
the stories of Richardson’s had character
is his father-in-law, Justice Waller of Bay
Shore. He is thoroughly frightened, and
never permits his rifle to be out of reach a.
minute, or his daughter Annie, the wife of
the outlaw, to be out of his sight. She,
too, is frightened, and unless something
happens to allay her fears her reason will
be dethroned. Justice Waller himself is
not much better off on this point.

The excitement was renewed a little
yesterday by the discovery that the house
of Alexander Biddle, about a mile and a
half northwest of Brentwoo'l on the
Coma-3 road, had been enterel and two
loaves of bread, a large pail of sugar, four
dozen eggs, some rice and flour and $6 in
money stolen. A loaded gun belonging to
Mr. Biddle was found lying on the ground
out in the yard. A small revolver which
was kept in the clock was also missing.

It is believed that the robber is Richard-
son and, since this story has gone for;h,
the search for him has been stimu-
latml. Some of the watchers have taken
blankets with them to the woods and
swamps, where they say they w ill watch
for him until he has been captured. James
Richardson, who has been a prisoner at
tlzc Marisa farmhouse, was released last
He is reported as saying that
his brother was crazy, and taut he had
left this part of the country and would not
be caught.

C’ARN EGIE’S EMPLOYES RETURN.

Having Heard That Their Places “Fore
to Be Filled, They Raise the Strike,

PITTSBURG, July 17.—-Two weeks ago the
700 employes of Carnegie Bros. at the Du-
qu-anc Steel Works went on strike for re-
cognition of their organization. The com-
pany paid the men Off and closed the
works.

Wednesday the report gaincrl currency
that the company intended to start the
works yesterday morning with new 1113.1].
Yesterday when the gates leading in tho '
works were opened, 600 of the strikers pre-
sented themselves ready to return to work.
The report that new man were to take the
strikers’ places was untrue.

The company started the works, single
turn, employing half of the applicants.
The mill will go on double turn next week,
when to all save the leaders in the strike
will be given employment.

port, and Miss F. Lucile Van Hoosear,

We desire to say to our citizens, that
for many years we have been selling
Dr.. King’s New Life Pills, Bucklen’s
Armca Salve and Electric Bitters, and
have never handled remedies that sell
as well or that have given such univer-
sal satisfaction. We do not hesitate to
guarantee them every time, and we
stand ready to refund the purchase
prlce, if satisfactory results do not fol-
low their use. These remedies have
won their great popularity purely on
their merits. H. R. Hale, Druggist.

The weather (0-day: Fair; slightly
warmer.

It is a common opinion that
merchants make a great deal
of fuss over selling things
cheap. We do. I do.

I sell many thousands of
shoes at a profit and say very
little about it. I sell a few
hundreds and lose a few hun-
dreds of dollars a year and»-
kick up all this rumpus about
It. '

Why? ,

Two reasons. One is be-
cause you know I am here, my
shoe-store is full, of course I
am making money. The oth-
er reasou. I have been told
that people enjoy cheapthings
and like to read about, ’em.
That’s a good reason for print-
ing about ’em.

Some folks print ’em when
they haven’t got ’em.
I don’t.

A Splendid Opportunity for a Nice
Home atSmall Cost.

—In the chances of business I have
come into the possession of four pretty
cottages in Wilton, Conn. Each cost
eighteen hundred dollars to build,
without the land. They are within
three minute’s walk of the depot of the
Danbury and Norwalk Railroad, upon
the main road, convenient to the stores,
schools and churches, and are very at-
tractive homes. They are new, well
and tastefully painted and papered and
each have good-sized lots. I will sell
them at fifteen hundred dollars each.
At this price a man can live in Wilton
and work in Norwalk, and at an ex-
penditure of ten or twelve dollars per
month cover his interest, taxes and
commutation, can give his children
every advantage of first-class schools,
notably Professor Olm‘stead’s academy
(a very superior classical school,) can
have a house and plenty of ground for

.. his own family and put that family in

first-class associations and society. I
shall be pleased to show this property
to any one contemplating a purchase.
It will be sold on easy terms to reliable
parties. and the neighborhood is too
good to consider applications from any

one else. . St 142

The court of last resort in

brings his wife to help select
his clothes, the salesman intu-

lady. If she is satisfied, all is
well._ . , '
We are frequently told by
customers that a suggestion
from wife or sister has sent
them to us for a trial purchase
instead of ordering as usual
from the tailor.

One trial usually gains us a

enough to afford good cloth,
good trimmings, good tailor-
