It would be a question difficult to d'jcide whether the male or female y > rtion of the community give the greater support to trade iu the mat ter of wearing apparel , in a flnan- j clal point of view ; but certainly in the number and variety of their re finements , the ladies undoubtedly boar the paltu , especially since rcady-uiade articles of apparel have become so generally popular. It is now only a few years since that milliners , dress and mantua makers maintained a monopoly as uuiver sal in extent as it was productive of extravagance amongst the wealthy , especially ; for the advantage of be ing well and stylishly dressed could only bo attained through the handa of these professionals , and those who could not afford the lux ury , being compelled to rely upon their own skill and ingenuity in cutting , fitting an'd finishing , ue < jesarily presented a very "dowdy" sort of appearance. Now , however , a change has come over the scene , and ninety-five per cent. of the ban ton ladies of the most fastidious tastes and plethoric , purses , purchase their clothing ready made , and certainly no city in the world possesses more beautifully . fully dressed women than those of Omaha and the West ; for the facilities attained and the perfection reached in the manufacture of ready-made gar ments place them within the means of tbo humbler as well as the wealthier classes. The rapid growth of tbo cloak and suit manufacturing business is a criterion of its general popularity and increasing patronage , and cer tainly the productions of many leading houses are equal in design and workmanship to the finest im ported goods , and indeed in many instances possess a delicacy , rich ness and botuity of finish far excell ing them. This is peculiarly the case with specialties introduced by thehouseof Welf & McDonald , 260 Farnham street , who manufacture aud import these goods exclusively , and whose goods were yesterday carefully inspected by a representa- tiye of the BEK. The reputation of this house for producing the finest lines of cloaks and suits of any other establishment in the west , is duo to the fact that Messrs. Welf & McDonald thorough ly understand every detail of their business. It is a peculiar business and can only bo conducted by gen tlemen who have been trained and educated to it from youth up , as Messrs. Welf & McDonald have been. The styles are all original with the hi use , and this nea ou present unusual features of attraction to buyers , the combinations being ex ceedingly varied , elegant and un ique. ique.The The "Dolmans , " the favorite spe- ciulty of this season's introduction , are wortby of particular inspection ; they ore elegantly made up in silk , drap d'ete , grey cloth , &c. , and the trimmings are of the richest quali ty. The designs are simply superb , and Indeed iu every detail these garments combine all the attrac tions that the must fastidious taste strictest connoisseur can desire. The prices raugo from $3 up fo f 82 , and comprise a numerous variety. Although the Dolican is an im portant specialty , it is not exclusive , the manufacture of Barques de manding a considerable share of at tention , and many beautiful pro ductions are now on exhibition. A sample of tl.jt-o garments made of drapd'eto especially attracted our attention. It has never been our pleasure to inspect a more elegant aud tasteful work of art. It is cord ed at the seams , silk set in , the work on which is of tbo finest possible de- bcriplion The most critical will ad mit , on inspection , that this special ty should commaudalar obale. Linen dusters in all styles and de signs , and at all prices , are also a very attractive feature , being ex ceedingly tasteful ami "nobby. " We particularly noticed a very stylish garment of this kind , in a very pretty pattern of black and white check. Our attention was called to a very convenient and indispensable gar ment called the Princess , which can bo worn without a waist. A garment of this style in silk can be had for $25 sud upwards. Just think of it. jn connection with the Princess is the Dolman , well adapted to street wear , and we predict for it a popular demand. The Matellasse overdresses and jackets , trimmed with gros grain silks in all shades , are very hand some garments. The new style of diagonal cloth , with Talma to match , cannot be excelled for rich ' ness. The Dolman "Antoinette , " in In silk and also Mattellas&e , and the Imperial Dolman , are very elegant. 1 he French Foulard suits , m Mat- ielias.se effects , in all shaded , are very stylish and attractive for street wear , while the linen suits are very graceful , and are the finest ever got ten up. These suits Welf & Donald are able to sell at prices fifty per cent , lower than anybody else. Their stock of ladles' neckwear 18comprises all the latest novelties ; and their line of underwear is very | extensive. Tbeir children's department em braces every variety of garment of , | overwear and underwear. lii fact we could go on and fill several columns in enumerating the many beautiful articles of ladies' j wearing apparel now on exhibition i at Welf & McDonald's ; but wet must conclude by advising all ( he , ladies to call at tbeir temple of ifashion | during these , tbeir opening days , and inspect the goods tor themselves. gjggJj J WafgfefeiSf i .iBOflMiiaCTiSj Aiirav ! ? f"8 ?

A couple of soldiers attempted to raise th6 wind , In a financial sense , yesterday , by a little sharp practice better Known as forgery , but they were nipped in th.e bud.

Armstrong , Superin tendent of lhb S"ubdrbau Telegraph Company , played a practical joke on the newspaper reporters yester day. Mr. Armstrong has recently been in Chicago , and on his return represented that he had mtfde ar rangements to teat the musical powers of the telephone between Chicago and Cincinnati. Accord ingly an invitation was extended to the reporters to be present at a trial in one of the rooms of the Western Union Telegraph Com pany's building promptly at 2:55 : yesterday afternorn. Quite a com pany assembled at the time , aud wore held in suspense for a consider able period by Mr. Armstrong , who busily rushed about making nrrange- meuls for Uie entertainment. At leu nth the eager party was admitted to the iuuer room , where the tele graphic concert was to be held There was a great array of wire coils , and the preparations were im mense. After testing the wires , and finding them strongly charged , the operator connected them , and the music began to play. Two or three familiar old tunes were jingled oil iu good style to the no small in terest of the visitors , who crowded about the instrument. No less than four modest reporters of the En quirer were present to take in the situation , and tear the sensation to tatters. The Gazette sent its musical critic to bear the strains , and , with his ear close tc the instrument , he expressed his satisfaction at the tone , aud noticed a peculiar whirr , that was due , no doubt , to the elec tric influences in transmission. The evening papers were also fully rep resented. When the edifiad con gregation had been wrought up to the highest pitch , Prof. Armstrong detached the instrument from its wire connections , and held it up to the gav.o of the crowd , explain ing that the fact of its coutiuuiug to play was due to its having been fully charged with musical light ning. At the same time he discov ered that a Swiss music box had been neatly fitted into the relay m strurnent , and had been doing all the playing. It was a clever hoax , and every one present admitted it. Armstrong escaped without physical iujury. Before this exhibition he had "sold" all the telegraph operators in the building in a similar manner. It was a well set-up job. Operators iu Chicago were iu it. Messages sent back and forth fooled not only the boys in Cincinnati , but at sta tions ull along the line between the cities. Numerous inquiries were sent for news as to the success of the trial.

THI BUK will continue to be the strenuous advocate of reform and retrenchment , and of the substitution of statesmanship , wis dom , and integrity for hollow pretense , im becility and frand in the administration of public offairs. It will contend for the gov- ernment'of the people by the people ana for the people , as opposed to government by frands in tne ballot-box and in the counting oi votes , enforced by military violence. It will endeavor to supply its readers a body not tar from a million souls with the most careful , complete , and trustworthy accounts of current events , and will employ for this purpose a numerous and carefully selected staff of reporters and correspondents. Its report * from Washingtom , especially. will be full , accurat * . and fearless ; and it will doubtless continue to deserve and enjoy the hatred of those who thrive hy plundering the Treasury or by usurping what the law does not give them , while it will endeavor to merit the confidence of the public by de fending the rights of the people against the encroachments of unjustified powers.
