II. Carsoo, -who owns tne lot aoove : referred to, as well as almost half of that square, will begin i,; work -on ; a four-story -brick structure, - 100x63 feet. - . J .

Mr. Bobert Haydn Grieve for Her Moth r, Her Slater and Nephew. The friends of Mrs. - Robert Haydn will be grieved to learn of sorrows -, which have come to her in the past year. Early in the year her mother, to whom she was devotedly attached, died at her home In Baltimore, Mrs. Haydn oot being with her either ; during her illness or at her death, as she coaid not reach her from her far-away home in Oregon; and-a letter received from her this week by a Cbarlotve friend tells of her grief over the loss of her sister and sister's child. Her sister, a Mrs. Fill- ' inger, of Baltimore, married the cap tain of an ocean steamer. He, his wife and her son started on a voyage. His vessel was due at San Francisco last April, but nothing has ever been heard of it, so the natural supposition is that the. vessel and all on board have been lost at sea. Mr and Mrs. Haydn are still living in Portland, Oregon. They have no idea, at present, of returning East. Chrysanthemums. This is the time when the chrysan" ' themum growers begin to compare notes and flowers. So far Capt. Geo. Bason's flowers make the best exhibit. He bas some beauties, and by the end of the week will have more, and those now opening will be in fuller perfec tion. The chrysanthemums at the cemetery look vigorous and healthy. and are beginning to bloom nicely, but are not quite as far long as Capt. Ba son's.' The Dil worth "flowers do not show up as well this season as last, but there will still be some pretty blooms In the collection. Mrs, Wilkes has been away, but her plants were not neglected in her ab sence, and she will be ready to exhibit along with the rest of the local chrys anthemum growers. Going and Coming.

The Charlotte ; crowd remained with the New Englanders until the last.- The parting on both sides was made, re luctantly, the Cbarlotteans renewing the invitation for the association to hold its next meeting here; tbe -New Englanders with the hope of doing so. Now that they - have come and. gone, and the inoidects attendant upon their visit are all over, too much : credit can nit be given President Chadwick. of the Manufacturers Club, for his 'untir ing work. . True the club was at his back, but he did much jnersonal work, and to him, if to any one person, is doe the credit of the success of the visit.

L Sekle ft Co; W. KAUFMAN & CO Thoe who have watched the trend of trade wi'l have noticed the gradual hardf-niog in the rela tios of commodity and price ( he growing difficulty of realizing la gi profits and the consequent uees8 ty of inc easing the voium of bui ess on narrow ma gins of profit in order to succeed.

THE LAW OF THE RACKET To sell goods from the standpoint of the lowfst prices possible, has Sim ply as tounded tbe multitude. We have said often that as merchants we have no right to ask yo 13 for a thing we could make a reasonable profit on at $'2. A merchant ask? you $15 for a suit of clothes and before you get out yon bay It for $10. What guarantee have you that vour snit is worth even that? He would take your $15 if he could get it ana possibly does take it from your neighbor, whose cash ought to buy as yours. Merchants sel'ing goods on time and buying the same way have not only paid high for their eoods but have been forced to sell at enormous . profits dealing in one hundred and two hun dred per cent, nntil it seems an impos sibility for him to let down to small. fair profit. The day and hour for big profits has gone by. The law or com pulsion in business has had its day Mercantile slavery as applied to the manses is doomed. With the earth laden with one of the best crops this country ever prod uced, light, hope, victory, freedom and suc cess all come to the man who has put his hand to the plow and moved on tbe industries, and he will never again promise two dollars for what one bright, shining dollar ought to buy. The Kacket Store bas left nothing un done it knew to do to induce as many people as possible to escape from this destructive system. We are proud of our success in un folding its terrors and especially In the fruits which daily cone back to us by those who aver that we have been in strumental in turning Hundreds away irom It.
