Letter From Ono uf the I.ocul AVcrld'H
Fair I'm tit".
Tho following Is mi Interesting letter from
ono of tho excursion parties which left town
last wcok for tho World's Fair. En.
Kihtou 'Heuald: Wo arrived at Hull'alo
on Thursday ovcnlng, 18th, after a most do
lightful rldo oyer tho Lehigh Valley Kallroad
from Sayro and found mauy oxcurslonists in
tho city, soino bound for tho great exposition
and others oil their way homo. Lake Cayuga,
from Ithaca to Geneva, is a beautiful sight,
and a Bplcndid view of It Is aU'ordcd to tho
right of tho Lehigh route.
Wo put up at tho Iroquois hotel, a magni
ficent building furnished In elegant stylo and
in all respects first class. Notwithstanding
tho elegant accommodations and excellent
eorvlco tho rates are but $5 por day, breakfast,
supper and lunch $1 each, and dinner $!.!
Jlujor Klnnoy Joined us this morning. Ho
camo hero in a sleeper in which ho didn't
sleep. I do not think ho travels much. After
wo completed breakfast his eyes fell ujion a
finger bowl and n lemon. "Oh, if Phil. Hoi
man was here, wouldn't ho pay tho tax !"
exclaimed John, as ho squeezed tlfo lemon
juice Into tho water and motioned for sugar.
This morning, tho 10th, our party went to
Niagara, becauso everybody elso seemed to
bo going tlicro and tho landlord praised tho
placo very highly. Wo thought ho was anx
ious to get rid of us so wo would not bo on
hand for tho grand dinner, but if such was
his Intention ho was fooled, for wo all got
back in good time. When tho conductor
yelled, "Niagira Fallsl" Finney partly awoko
from his slumber and shouted, "Well, set 'cm
up again, tho rails havo arrived," mid all in
tho party acquainted with tho Major's anxiety
to get tho Lakcsido electric road through at
liom'o roared with laughter.
Upon arrival at Niagara wo went on an
olectrio car to tho Whirlpool rapids, and at
tho terminus of tho road wo entered a den
which provtd to bo an elevator and in tho
twinkling of an oyo wo wero dropped to tho
bottom of tho shaft. After viewing tho rap-
. Id i w ptartsd to return and Just as wo wore
about to ro-entor tho elevator wo met Super
intendent William II. Lewis, of Wm. I'eun,
and party, with Superintendent Illakcslco, of
tho Lehigh Valley Railroad, who wero taking
in tho Falls on their way homo from tho
World's Fair.
On reaching terra firma JIajor Finney, with
his usual gencrosity,insUtcd upon paying tho
expense of tho elevator, twenty cents for
four of ub, supposing that tho trip in the elo
vator cost five cents ; but it was no go. The
sign abovo tho olovator door was something
llko this, "50," but Finney read it "oc," Tho
trip cost him $2. I promised not to say any
thing about it. After a bitter
wrangle with tho hackman, wo
succeeded In getting him to tuko four of us
for $2 and wo had a good long drivo. During
tho journey Finney got tho "cabby'Mntogood
humor by talking about beats, heart
beats, red beets and dead beets, and beforo tho
end of tho journoy ho proved such a good
follow that ho offered to niako Fiunoy a pros
cut of his carriage. The Major politely de
clined tho offer on tho ground that a livery
man belonged to tho Borough Council at
homo and if too many of tho Councilmeu got
into tho business they would bo driving over
to tho Valley evory Sunday. In conversation
with tho hackman Finnoy remarked that tho
cab anrt hack business must lie paying at the
Falls this year on account of tho great stop
overs by World's Fair tourists, but the hack
man said tho business is by no means good, as
tbo Fair visitors generally stop at the Falls
on tho homeward journey and are then pretty
-well "strapped," so they cannot "do"tho Falls
as pcoplo must to see everything.
To-uight.(Saturilay) wo leave forCleveland
by boat and expect to reach that city to-morrow
morning.
1 hardly think it worth whilo to give you
a description of tho sights I saw at Niagara.
It has been written up so often I am sure it
would be a chestnut to your readers. I for
got to tell you that upon our letuni to tho
hotel at Buffalo Finney called the drinks lor
a new acquaintance and tho Major almost
burst with suppressed merriment its the now
made friend soberly ald bofore tho liquid
disappeared, "Here's your health, Mr.
Fiunegan." ' C.

of Bcllcfonto, Fcnn., writes to tho proprietors
of this great remedy :
"My daughter is to-day as well as she evor
was in her llfo, but I bollovo that if wo hnd
not got I'alno's celery compound for her that
sho would not bo hero with us to day. ' She
was attending school, but got 'iun down' and
her illnoss developed into what tho doctors
said, was rheumatism and rheumatic fever
Every ono said sho could not live I em
ployed thico doctor, but they gave her no
relief. I read about I'alne's celery com

would help her, so I went down town nnd got
a bottlo of tho compound and hurried home
and commenced giving It to her according to
directions.
" By tho timo sho had taken half "of tho
bottle sbo was ablo to sit up in bed, and by
tho timo sho had used four bottles sho was
froo from pain. Wo continued to u;o tho

Self pralto is no recommendation, but
thcro aro times when ono must psrmit a
person to tell the truth about himself. When
what he says is supported by tho testimony
of others no rcasouablo man will doubt his
word. Now, to say that Allcock's Porous
Plasters aro tho only genuine and tellable
porous plasters mado is not self praise in tho
slightest degrco. They havo stood the tost
for over thirty years, and in proof of their
morits It is only nccowary to call attention to
tho cures they have effected and 'to tho
voluntary testimonials of those who havo
used them.
Beware of imitations, and do not be
deceived by misrepresentation. Ask for
Allcock's, and let no solicitation or explana
tion induco you to accept a substitute.

uRESS GOODS issuch a bewildering topic
that we will not attempt a lull descrip
tion, but give a partial outline, which you
can fill in by a personal inspection.- There are
the plain and chaugable diagonals; plain, plajd,
striped and invisible plaid serges; . fancy mix
tures in all sorts of odd weaves, dots, threads,
cross-threads, hair-lines, lines here and there,
many at a glance appearing alike, but upon ex
amination are found entirely different. Our
assortment of silks is complete china silks,
china surah, plain surah, bengaline, plain, fig
ured and changeable silks, in all the new shot
effects. Full line of fancy braids to match any
color of dress goods.
In Wraps
Wo find tho most stylish and
tlio prevailing modo to bo tho
Capo, in somo of its variations,
single, doublo or trlplo capes. Somo aro plain, others very
highly decorated, with fancy indescent braid, butterfly
colors, or somo full arrangemont at tho neck, so much ap
proved this season by tho fomlnlno fancy. To somo, coats
only aro tho correct garment. To thoso wo would say coats
aro equally fashlonablo and stylish, many of these having
capos also attached sometimes ono, two or threo, as tho
tasto or inclination of tho wearer may desiro.
We have this season, for the first time,
added a Millinery Department, and have spared
neither trouble nor expense to make it a suc
cess. The result exceeds our most sanguine
expectations. This department will be under
the same management and conducted on the
same principles that have always characterized
our entire business. We shall keep everything
in trimmed and untrimmed hats, novelties of
every description. Having secured a trimmer
noted for her artistic and skillful work, we are
enabled to suit all tastes. We invite a careful
inspection of our entire store. All welcome.
