' The Capitol Adventure Co. have, for the short time they have been in business, shown to the public tliqt thoy nro doing a legitimate business, worthy of their patronage. Among their patrons you will And the best farmers, who exchange their pro ducts to them for their wares; the mechanics and laborers, who know the value of a dollar, and whero tp invest it; also the reilucd and tal ented people go there for their elegant wares. The immigrants soon find themselves to homo at the opera house corner, for the reason that the Capital Adventure Co. sell from ten to twenty-five per cent, qheaperthan any other house in the profits of the middle niou. They save in freight. They also have the advantage of buying bankrupt stocks, and also very often reliable merchants who are pushed for funds sell them the best of goods at twenty to thirty per cent, discount for cash. Second, Thoy have leased the elegant Opera House building for a long time for almost nominal rent. They have- the most commodious aud bebt lighted store rooms iu the city. They carry a full and com plete stock of dry goods, clothing, hats, boots and shoes, ladies' and gents, furnishing goods, Jewelry and silverware, notions, stationery and cutlery, groceries, in fact a genenil variety such as are usually kept in a first class store. The Capitol Ad venture Co. is about the only (Inn In Salem that tries to command' the farmers' trado by buying nil their merohantablo products, and they re tail the farmers' products the same prices they nay, thus saving to the mechanics and laborers from ten to twenty per cunt, for the real necessaries of life. Therefore the Capitol Adventure Co. asks for the continuance of tlio public's patron age. You will llnd them at the Oixira IIouso corner, Court and Liberty streets, Salem, Oregon. Eugene Vilms, S.

Yesterday evening the Salem im portations from the kingdom of flowers aud opium began the .cele bration of the Chinese New Year. By loud noise and gaudy decorar tions Is this celebration known. In the larger cities, notably Portland and San Francisco, where there are many of the almond eyed sons of nuns, the observance of the next month will be one of much interest to the spectator. Their houses will be gaudily "hung In bright colors and tinsel, with the detested yellow draeon of the Chinese Empire wav ing defiantly overall. The nolso will bo that of clashing cymbal and exploding firecrackers. The Cbin nese are nothing if not patriotic and their special pride Is in making their New Year the merriest season ot the whole year. Salem's knights of the wash-house will not conduct notori ous festivities, claiming they are too few in nu inhere to afford it. SIAKKIED.
