selection of high-
grade dress fabrics,
from the famous Priestleys'
Mills at Bradford, England, in-
cludes a most attractive range

The high standard of Priestleys' quality
is maintained this year as usual, in spite
of unprecedented conditions in the
woolen trade. At present, when high-
grade dress fabrics are so difficult to
obtain, Priestleys' is more than ever the
choice of discriminating women.

ways of a kindly diepos'ti•in and a
faithful parent: Mr. Wright had
an exceptionally gond memory and
was a very enteri,aining converse
tionalist. To a representative of
The Banner some months ago, Mr.
Wright recalled having ridden on
the first steam engine, it being the
invention in 18(1 of Mr. George Ste);
eeson and called The Blucher. The
Blucher 'burned Wood for fuel and
was ,known to Barry eight loaded
wagons, weighing 30 tons, et a
speed of four miles an hour. This
first engine did not 'become of gen
eral use and is now on exhibition
at Newcastle. The Stockton -Dar -

in September 1835, Thirty-four ve-
hicles making a, gross load of 90
tons were drawn by one engine,
di.iven by steam, while a signal man

train moved out at from ten to
twelve miles en hour, and are
tained a speied of fifteen .miles at
favorable places along the line.
Mr. Wright was wedded in October
of 18.19 to Elizabeth :Jane Moore,

to them, of whom five survive.
