Hull Cillinc
The great loan exhibition rhich opens in
Vienna to-morrow contains such a vat
amount of treasure that it appears a terri
ble temptation to the world's burglars to
test their powers. English newspapers are
bored with complaints from indignant Kew
ionndlanders, who demand that their fish
ing rights be protected. Parisians are daily
becoming more cxciVirt over -their coming
Exposition.
CST C1BLX TO THE DISPATCH.
London, April 20. Copyrighted. To
a burglar with ambition and nerve, Vienna
just now presents a unique opportunity. A
Loan Exhibition of specimens of the gold
smith's art will open on Monday, in the
palace of Prince Schwarzenberg, and people
who have seen the superb collection cannot
find adjectives expressive enough to convey
an adequate idea of the show. Five large
rooms are piled up with such things as em
erald and diamond diadems, necklaces,
coronets, tables of solid silver, bis chain set
in silver, huge mirrors framed in silver,
toilet services of solid gold, and golden
tankards and cups by the hundred.
There is a necklace belonging to the
Princess Metternich, in which are the
biggest emeralds in the world, and the
Princess Beuss shows a necklace made up
of the largest opals known, some of them as
big as peaches. The Duke of Nassau ex
hibits a small case, for the contents of which
he has just refused a quarter of a million
dollars. The case contains two golden
tankards, surmounted with Roman heads in
relief, and having miniature portraits of the
German Emperors encircled by big diamonds
inside the lids of both tankards. Among
other trifles maybe seen the grtjt Napoleon's
golden traveling dressing case, and some
queer looking golden instruments with
which he used to pick and clean his im
perial teeth.
All these things and many more will Jbe
on view until the 15th of June, and until
the exhibition is over the chiefs of the
Vienna police will know no peace. Every
precaution will be taken, but the temptation
to the world's burglarious talent is prodig
ious. Scotland Yard has obligingly for
warded to Vienna the portraits of all the
clever and daring burglars known to them,
and Americans will be interested to learn
that Billy Porter figures in the list. It is
probable that Inspector Byrnes will be asked
to forward his interesting collection of
photos.

ADVERTISING AND

who can't afford to pay much money for their clothes, and yet de
sire to be well dressed. While the materials are, of course, not as
fine in these Suits, as in our higher price garments, they will wear
satisfactorily nevertheless, and the make and fit are as good and
perfect as in the finest. Work'ingmen, " mechanics, clerks, book

days. The French Government has shown
its confidence in the future by officially
sanctioning the Congress, and has actually
appointed an Organizing Committee of very
distinguished men and women. The pro
gramme includes international arbitration,
neutralization of rivers, canals, channels,
straits, territories and nations, and the
Congress will especially consider the most
practicableameans oi gradually substituting
the rule of law for that of force. On the
23th and 30th of Junp there will be a Par
liamentary Congress, invitations to which
have been or will be forwarded to represent
atives of the parliamentary bodies ofall na
tions, at which also a comprehensive pro
gramme will be gone through.
The British delegates ought to go to Paris
in sackcloth and ashes, for oy the time they
start Parliament will have voted 22,000,000
for the unpeaceful purpose of strengthening
the army and navy. Prince Bismarck and
his imperial master, who do not think much
of peace congresses, have expressed great
admiration at Lord Salisbury's bold ex
penditure, and are looking around for new
sources of revenue, from whence may be ob
tained a few millions to spend upon the
German navy.
BEACHING FETER HEAT.-
Paris Becoming: Dally More Excited Over
Her Comlnc Show.
tBT CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.
London, April 20. Paris is gradually
but surely reaching fever heat over its ex
hibition. May 6 is to be made Historical by
orations, fireworks and music, and the
French capital will be ablaze till well along
in the following day. The city is crowded
with Americans. The hotels have raised
their rates from 30 to 200 per cent, shop
keepers have doubled theirprices, and there
is a general apparent and enthusiastic move
ment to acquire all the foreign money that
drifts into Paris.
Amid all this Interest about the exhibi
tion, the, Boulanger trial is forgotten. It
lacks the sensational element, without
which Paris is bored. It drags along behind
closed doors, and sullen surmises are
all that it gives rise to. Meanwhile the
General has a big honse in Brussels, six
servants, eight horses, including the famous
black charger and a semi-royal court.
Bochefort and Dillon are also settled there.
The news from the Belgian Capital is still
most eagerly read in Paris.
A private letter from a Soman Catholio
priest of eminence in France tells me that
Dillon is most assiduous in his approaches
to the clergy, and that Boulanger has prom
ised the church a return to power in the
state in the event ot his success. Un
doubtedly there is strong support among the
clergy now, but how much pecuniary assist
ance comes from this source it is impossible
to say. Dillon's usefulness is very great.
As a collector of funds he is practically
without a rival in Europe.
WILLING TO SITED BLOOD.
Indignant Kewfonndlanders Demand That
Tbrir Rights be Upheld.
rar CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.
London, April '20. Betired military
officers and indignant Newfoundlanders are
writing to the newspapers here, demanding
the Imperial Government to prevent
Frenchmen interfering with the fishing
right of colonists. They threaten, if neces
sary, to take the law into their own hands,
and express an intention to shed their blood
in the maintenance of their rights. The
question is almost hoary with age, but the
majority of English newspapers, to judge
from their funny editorials, have just heard
of it for the first time. The. queerest thing
about the business is the revival of these
ancient heartburnings at a moment when
the French and English peace people are
arranging their congresses and vowing
eternal friendship and the brotherhood of
man.
A much more practical conference will be

held in London on the 8th of May, when
leading British merchants will meet at the
invitation of Viscount Cross, Secretary of
State for India, to discuss the best .means of
improving the quality of Indian wheat.
India at 'present comes after Russia and
America as the third important source of
England's wheat supply, and Viscount
Cross and a good many other patriots think
there is no reason whv she should not drive
other nations out of the English market.
Indian growers would like a protective
bounty, but theyron't get it.

CIVILIZATION
If people must live in a civilized State they must make an interchange called'trade.
To make it intelligently they must have something to go by. That "something to go by" is
advertising. . '
We furnish it day by day, when we tell you of the things to be had, their value, their
merit or demerit. For what is advertising our advertising but the drift of what is going
on each' day in the store? By means of this daily store news we are able to consult together,
think together, act together. It readily follows, then, that the first element of it must be
truth. This wanting, it is a Samson, shorn of its strength. "I know for certain it's true,"
observed the traditional old woman, "because I read it in a newspaper. The good old dame
would, we fancy, have been rather puzzled if she had happened to read the lucubrations of
some of the Pittsburg'advertisers. Strict truth is sacrificed to what is regarded as allowable
advertising exaggeration. The temptation always is to value goods above their-real worth,
to see merit to the hiding qf demerit Right here, then,, let it be said, while the dividing'
which marks the difference between exaggeration and fact is to many advertisers like the
ecfuator imaginary it is not so to us. We have always drawn the line strictly in this
respect And why shouldn't we? We can very well afford to tell the truth about our goods
and prices. The more the people know about them, the better it is for us. This explains
why we never resort to tricks or exaggeration in order to get your patronage.
