ademized with rich
ness and decouros

to pay.
Travel the exclusive road
with us this morning, and
admire these charming Black
Grenadines in all silk and
silk-and-wool. We know of
nothing in stock quite so
pretty.
They represent the 'finest
weaves, the choicest fabrics
in all France. There are one
hundred and thirty-six styles

inches. They are in lengths

What Is your name? How old ate
you' Where were you born? What Is
your business'' Are you married? Can
you read and write? Do you own your
property or Is It mortgaged? These
are a few (onl a few) of the questions
that will have to be answered nbout
every man, woman and child In the
United States next month when the,
twelfth census will be taken. Probably
hero and there somebody will be found
who will not care to tell her age (for
there are such people In the world) or
there may be some who will be disin
clined to divulge their business or the
financial standing of their properties,
but when Uncle Sam undertakes to
ask personal ciuestlons, which ho does
legulaily every ten years. It Is good
policy to answer them plainly nnd
without hesitation, however much It
may go against the grain. The law
provides that If any one refuses to an
swer any one of the questions he or she
shall be considered guilty of n mis
demeanor and be Habit to a line of one
hundred dollars. This is a fact which
It Is advlslble to remember. In order
to facilitate matters for the census
enumerator It would be well for every
one to look up dates, birthplaces, etc.,
of yourself, father and mother, and
have them toady to answer at once.
Remember the W. C T. U. supper at
C. U. Mnthew son's this eenlng. It

THE MARKETS.
Wall Strict Bovlew.
New York, Msy 7. There were several point!
of weakness In the stock market todav and thwe
were sufficient to turn the room traders to the
bear side of the rrarkct. The operations of this
professional element were the oniy one apparent
outside of a few slocks and they reflected 10
conditions or rven well established opinions re
gardlng the general outlook. Tho demand for
stocks contlmird quite Insignificant so that the
moderate offerings In large part tor the sup
posed account of room trailers made an Impies
sion easily upon prices, but the decllhcn failed
to Induce any liquidation nd prices readily ral
lied when the liears tame to cover. The steel
shares wero the most conspicuous In the trading
and were weak from the opening. The reported
1 losing of a mill of the Federal Steel company
Induced the early decline which was languid and
sluggish. The announcemret ol the .resignation
from the Imard of directors of the Aincticsn
Steel and Wire company of the Sellgmsn repre
sentatives and their statement of Irncoiiciltble
objections to Chairman dates and Ida policy
caused a further sharp break In the steel gioup,
In which Federal Steel was rather more a.
reeled than Steel and Wire. Pressed Steel Car
and American Smelting were exceptions in the
fioup, the foinier rising over a point. Long
land broke sharply after It recent notable ad
vance on the absorption by I'ennsjIvanU nnd
closed 0V4 points lower than Mttiirday. The
bonds were also hcavj. The reaction was attrib

on comparatively small dealings. In the railroad
list St. Paul, f'ennijlvanla, llnlon Pacific, and
llaltimore and Ohio had rather a wide fall on
what looked like letting go ot a speculative ac
count. There were heavy blocks of dullness all
through. There was a slight show of strength In
spot at the opening In response to London a en
couragement over South African news, but the
rise was but mementary. The rally alter the
break In steel stocks was not well held, the mem

lowest at the close, which was lieavv through.
