SHOE NE WS.
BRIDGEPOET. Conn., September 24, 1891.
The weather to-drw: Cloudy.
The fact is ladies under-
stand the sort of shoes I 'keep
so well that not much need to
be said to. them in the
papers. They expect to find a
wide variety, the newest styles,
sizes and widths to suit.
A neat button boot is one
that I sell for $2, nice soft kid,
looks and feels and is as good
as many sold at $2.50; of
course I sell a lot of them.

New York,

Good hats, good shoes, good
furnishings, good clothes; and
only the good sorts. Its our
way of building up and holding
a good business.
You can buy a pretty good-
looking hat, for instance, for a
couple of dollars. We sell for
$ 1.90 a quality that’s sold quite
generally for $2.50. We advise
you to buy a better one; be-
cause our $3 grade is the equal
of any hat that’s made, and is
sure to please in the wear.
We sell a man’s shoe of sub-
stantial calfskin for $2. 50. We
think it quite the equal of any
three dollar shoe in the mar-
ket. But we’d rather sell you
a $4 or $5 shoe, because you’d
then get, practically, as good a
shoe as can be put together.
A man living out of town,
when once fitted to shoes or
hats, can easily write for what
he needs, since we carry the
same grades in stock from
year to year.

THE EVENT 01? THE SEASON.

GETTYSBURG, Pa, Sept. 25.-—The Tom-
many braves dedicated the monument
they haVe erected on this batttiefield to
mark the position in the Bloody Angle
held by the Forty-second New York in-
fantry, which was recruited and sent out
by the wigwam when the civil war cloud
burst in 1861. They did themselves proud,
and the veterans of the old regiment.harve
every reason to be satisfied with the
memorial that bears their number. The
dedication was the event of the season
here.

TAMMANY MONUMENT.
war whoop, the, serenity Of this little town
was not much disturbed after midnight.
Quarters were easily secured at the hotels,
and after an all day’s travel the bosses of
New York city considered that it be-
hooved them to obtain some little rest in
preparation for the day on the battlefield -
and the ride back to their Manhattan
island home. ' .
It was something after 9 o’clock when
the followers of old Tammany fell into
line and marched down to the Reading
railroad station, boarded their cars and
were drawn rapidly out to Hancock sta-
tion on the Second corps line, cohort dis-
tance from the big monument.
Ten o'clock was the scheduled time for
the exercises to begin, but it was consider-
bly later than this when Captain Eugene
Sullivan, the president of the veteran or-
ganiz tion of the Forty-second New York
Infan, y regiment, rapped for order on the
11 r of the little stand that had been
rooted for the speakers and prominent
braves. ,. '
Rev, W. H. Keith, pastor of the Method-
ist chdrch of this place, made the prayer,
and the Commonwealth band, of Harris-
burg, played a dirge. The monument was
thbn unveiled by James E. Mallon, son of
Colonel James E. Mellon, commanding the
Forty-Second regiment. The orator of the
day', Major General Sickles, then presented
the monument to the Gettysburg Battle
field assooiation, and said:
General Sloklos’ Speech.
There is a day and an hour in the annals of
every nation when its life hangs on the issue of
a battle; when it stands or falls by the sword.
Bucha battle was Gettysburg. You are now
standing on the field where the destiny of this
republic was decided. Right here are some of
th brave soldiers, veterans of the Forty-sec-
on , who helped to win the decisive victory for
the Union. You stand right here on a spot that
wash vertex of battles. Man to man, steel
against steel—rifle and cannon and sword, shot
and. gshell, the hoarse voices of desperate oom-
botants, the smoke and flame and clash of arms.
Right here, near this clump of trees, the im-
petuous onset of the Virginians led by Pickett
and Armistead and Garrett met thegolid front
of Hancock‘s corps as the ocean we've strikes
the rock, and, like the wava, was dashed into
spray as the advancing line of the enemy broke
into fragments against the wall of Hancock’s
bayonets. Right here, in the thickest of the
combat, stood your own gallant Forty~second,
under the eye of the young and gifted Mallon.
All honor, then, to Meagher, O‘Rourke, Kelly,
Corcoran, Delacey, Mahon and McGurdy and
their comrades, glorious types of the Irish-
American soldier. Let the presence of your
own heroic dead oonsecrate this monument.
Let it stand for uncounted years to tell the
story of Tsmmany‘s devotion to the country in
time of war, and of her love for her soldiers
who fell in the great conflict. American from
hand to foot in its beautiful design, graceful in
form, impressive in its grand proportions, let
this memorial remind the coming generations
as long as bronze and granite last of the debt
they owe to the Tammany braves of 1861.
The Closing Exercises.
The Hon. Edward McPherson received
the monument in the name of the associa-
tion, and then an original poem, “The
Patriotic Dead,” compOsed for the occa-
sion by William Geoghegan, was read by
F. F. Mackay, the actor. Short addresses
were made by Colonel John R. Fellows,
an ex-cfiicer in the Confederate army;
General Martin T. McMahon, General Ely
S. Parker, Barlow S. Weeks, Captain J.
M. Ellendorif and Captain James Casey.
F. F. Mackay then read “The Blue and
the Gray," and after singing “Comrades”
the exerCises concluded.
The remaining hours until 4 o’clock
were spent in viewing the battlefield. At
4 the special train left for New York, city,
via the Western Maryland and Pennsyl-
vania railroads.
Last evening the veterans of the Forty-
second New York regiment met, and by .
their committee, Frank Reynolds, J.
W. Ellendorfi and Thomas H. Mallon,
adopted resolutions thanking the Tam-
many society for erecting and dedicating
the splendid monument of the regiment.
The Regiment’s Record.
The Forty-second Volunteer regiment of
New York was organized by Colonel Wil-
liam D. Kennedy, a sach’em of the Tam-
many society, at Great Neck, L. L, in 1861.
The regiment was recruited from the
ranks of the Tammany society, and was
recruited by the special authority of the
war department. The regiment went into
its first engagement at Ball’s Bluff, on
Oct. .21, 1861, meeting with heavy losses.
During the war 11 officers and 108 men
were killed in battle, 33 men died from
wounds, 1 officer and 105 men died from
disease and 12 officers and 267 men were
reported missing.

His Remains Entombed tn the Family
Mausoleum In Erie Cemetery.
ERIE, Pa, Sept. 25.-—-Thursday afternoon
at 5 o’clock the remains of the late Hon.
William Lawrence Scott were conveyed to
the family mausoleum in Erie cemetery.
The funeral services were held at the fam-
ily residence at 4 o’clock and were open to
the public. Rev. John Burke, rector oi
St. Paul’s Episcopal church, and Rev.
William Price, rector of the Cross and
Crown church, officiated. The remains
reposed in a rich, black casket in the north
parlor. The face of the deceased bore a
peaceful expression. At the head of the
casket was a beautiful, white floral pillow,
with the words “At rest” worked across
the center in colored flowers. Tears fell
from the eyes of many as they looked at
the face of the dead.
Ex-President Cleveland, accompanied
by Hon. Daniel Lamont, arrived from the
cast. There was a vast throng at the
depot awaiting the arrival of the err-presi-
dent, who received amost cordial greet-
ing. Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Lamont en-
tered carriages and were driven to the
Reed House, from where, later on, they
went to the Scott residence to attend the
services.
Governor Pattison, Secretary of State
Harrity, Adjutant General McClellan,
President Roberts, of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, and several of the di-
rectors of the road, President Hughitt, oi
the Chicago and Northwestern road, and
omcers of several other western and south-
western roads were present. The city is
draped in mourning, and many portraits
of Mr. Scott, framed in craps, are to be
seen in windows. The death of Mr. Scott
has caused deep sorrow throughout the
county, and delegations from a number oi
the county towns were present at the
funeral.

Island hotel, on Front street near Fulton.
Mrs. Haley was spoken to on the street
near the hotel a week ago last Saturday.

struck the stranger in the jaw, knocking
out two teeth and cutting Haley’s hand.

for life. He is carefully watched and

jail, though a criminal all his life. He is
wanted at Oshkosh and other places for
