An Auspicious Opening.The brightness of Chestnut Street

is considerably enhanced this weekby the grand opening display atYates’, which popu'ar and wellknown establishment has recentlybeen undergoing some very elaborateand substantial improvements.

The large show windows are tastefully and allraotiyely dressed in thehighest style ot the designers’ art.showing to perfection exquisitespring overcoats, choice patterns ofspring suits and many dainty novel-lies for little the newest andrichest designs in neckwear, gloves,hosiery, etc.

Nature has also lent herself to theadornment of tiie windows in thegroups of beautiful plants and greatbanks of flowers, which are interspersed here and there in a charming andartistic manner

But this magti'fleent display isonly a trifle as compared to the improvemonts, just completed, to thebuilding itself. The principal featuresare the addition of two stories, makingthe structure six stories high, tower-ing away above all others in thatvicinity, and the entire remodelingof the front, replacing the old styleof windows with large, handsometriplicate windows of French plateglass. The whole building is painteda rich cream color with the exceptionof the lower front, which is in maroonand gold. This adds giea’ly to theattractiveness of the building andgives it a very handsome and impos-ing appearance.

The entire interior of the store hasbeen touched up and renovated.

The building is well lightedthroughout by the firm's own arc andincandescent electric lighting plants.

There is ud atmosphere of orderand system pervading the establish-ment. and the whole concern createsthe impression of a model, modernClothing House.

A Curious Bequest.A few days ago we received

through the mail thi followingcurious note which read thu9ly:—•‘Gentlemen, you will please retractartie'e in your Paper of March 9thheaded Butter Fraud ’’

This amusing pote was signed bythe odd name as near as we couldmake it out

“Yours, C. W. Van Fleet.”Having printed no paper on the

9th we examined the issue of the10th, and under the caption referredto by 51r. Van Fleet, we found anarticle copied froth the Oeoil A’ewjwhich recited a story of an Ohiogentleman who was astonishing thelarmers about Port Deposit with aninvention he was trying to sell countyrights for which made a pound ofbutter from every pint of milk freshfrom the cow. As a pint of milkweighs but q light pound and a hun-dred pints contain only aboutpounds of butter fat we added byway of post script to the article thatthe thing was an old Iraud. As thepint of ordinary milk containsabout | of an ounce of hotter fat,the man and machine that claims tomake “a pound of butter from everypint of milk fresb from the cow,’ asa matter of course 19 a juggler or afraud, aud we don't see what we areto “retract,”

YYe reckon, however, that anyfarmer who had ever seen a cowwould know that a machine thatturned him out a pound of hullerfrom a piut of milk was lying tohim.

Ttie Pennsylvania R. R. Compatty has published an order that nosmoking or chewing tobacco shall beindulged in by train men while onduty. The new rule went into effecton Sunday and hereafter no trainmanwill be allowed to either smoke orchew tobacco while on duty. Itwould seem that the railroad com
