HINTS TO BUSINESS MEN !
Good advertising consists in the seT
lection of a few strong, quick sell spe
cialties, to stand as the representatives
of your stock in price, pattern and
quality. No tradesman need lack for
pecialty. Let specialties sell staplss
always and try to take rank among
Tour comDetitors as one who is tli
quickest to recognize a good thing and
the first to sell it.
Invite patrons to coma and see you.
The great advertisers of the country
never cease reminding the people of
their names, location and nature of
business. Advertising is an invest
ment and newspaper advertising col
umns are a boon to man. They help
him out of his troubles and iuto the
smiles of prosperity. The Pennsylva
nia railroad advertises exclusively in
the newspapers. There is not a great
business that has baen built in the
past twenty years without the aid of
newspapers.
This at"" is too bustling and com
petition is too great for the merchant
to allow himself any longer the luxury
of waiting supinely behind his coun
ter for trade. He must show in ad
vance of the purchase just what he
has to sell and how he intends to sell
it, and a persistent publication of his
wares is the means by which such
showing can be made.
Frank Siddall, the Philadelphia
soap man, says: "I have confined my
advertising entirely to newspapers.
The man who does not read a news
paper does not use soap."
During the past year 21,496 patents
were granted.
Mr. Holinan, of Indiana, has been
elected to congress for sixteen terms
and defeated three times.
President Cleveland, accompanied
by secretary Lamont, private secretary
Thurber and Dr. O'Reilly, left Wash
ington yesterday for Gray Gables.
Silver is in a position in which it
can laugh at congress. Its price is
going up notwithstanding the adverse
legislation of ten or eleven months
ago. . -
Councilman Dondasat, of New Or
leans, was caught in the act of takiig
a bribe from Charles Sherman yester
day. The amount taken was $100. He
was caught by detectives and lodged
in the station house.
The Chinese language has 1,098
phonetic' sounds and 43,000 written
characters, and yet the Chinese object
to exchanging it for simple, vigorous,
expressive English. No wonder China
is suffering from arrested civilization.
The treasury's gold fund is near the
$55,000,000 line. This is low, but as
it is almost $3,000,000 higher than it
was ten or twelve days, ago, and as it
Is g&ng np, the situation is encourag
ing.; .
In addition to conflagrations causing
an average loss of $500,000 a day, this
country losses $25,000,000 a year by
forest fires. The United States has
some grand opportunities to make
money by saving it.
Rochester is a thrifty city, and its
working people are as well-to-do as
any in the country. Yet for the year
ending July 1 they drew from their
savings banks $1,990,379 mora than
they deposited. The balance in ordi
nary years is the other way.
Official reports received at the state
department indicate a serious situa
tion in Peru. It has been found
necessary to suspend several articles
of the constitution, including the writ
of habeas corpus, ond the president
of the republic is practically clothed
with dictatorial powers. The provis
ion allowing all persons to meet peace
fully in public as in private is sus
pended, also the provision which pre
vented the sending of a person from
the republic or his residence without
icutive sentence. -
Congreae ha aathorUed the bares,
of labor statistic to make a thorough
inquiry into the effect of labor-saving
machinery in superseding hand labor.
This is an imports at field of research
in which little work has been dona as
The pioneer flying machine will, in all
probability, be a large kite-like affair,
with power in the shape of a gasoline
motor and screw propeller. It will be
provided with a means of guiding
both up and down, and sidewise. It
will earry but one operator, who must
feel that the machine is almost part
of himself. It speed will be small,
probably.
It is officially announced that 3,301,
384 acres of arid lands iu South
Dakota have been reclaimed and
under cultivation by irrigation, thus
increasing thir value from $77,000,
000 to nearly $300,000,000. Where
there is such a profit as that to be
made, would it no payhjeople to
do their own irrigating, iustead of
asking to have it done by the govern
ment ?
Notwithstanding all the fight made
in congress last spring to compel the
secretary of the treasury to coin the
seigniorage silver, the passing of a
bill to that effect and its subsequent
veto by the president, the government
is doing the very thing that Cleveland
said should not be dune if he could
help it. Director of the mint Breston,
says 423,000 silver dollars were coined
last month.
It appears from fiie statistios of the
traflic passing through the Suez canal
in 1S93 that the number of ships and
the amount of tonnage were both less
than in 1892, and considerably below
the figures of 1891. A comparison
with the canal at fault Ste. Marie
shows the latter to be ahead. That
is to say, more freight is carried
through the Americon canal than the
Suez canal, which goes to show the
importance of the trade of the great
lakes.
The Philadelphia Record says that
the doom of the cotton industry was
predicted at the close of the war. Yet
cotton crop of last year was nearly
double in quantity that of I860. The
south produces today over 60 per cent
of the cotton of the world. But cotton
does nut reign exclusively. From Nor
folk alone is shipped annually over
$6,000,000 worth of fruits and vege
tables. .The grain crops are now
nearly equal to the cotton. The stand
ing timber is equal in value to that of
all the balance of the union. The
limitless iron ore can be mined at an
advantage of $3 per ton over the north
ern ore, and Iron production has in
creased 500 per cent. The coal fields
cover over 60,000 miles, seven times
the coal area of Great Britain. With
lumber, cotton, iron and coal, the south
is bound to develop beyond the ken
of prophecy.
IT WAS HORRIBLE.
A Fearful Leap frosi a Burning Building.
A six-story building in New York
was burned yesterday morning. The
si x floors were occupied by tailor shops
The firestarted'on the third floor and in
less than ten minutes the flames had
started up the stairways to the roof.
The firemen were on the ground three
minutes after the alarm was sent out
and ladders were put np against the
iron fire escapes. Fireman Collins
was the first to start up and had nut
climbed more than ten feet when a
wild yell was heard above the noise of
the roaring flames and the horrified
crowd saw a boy clad only in an un
dershirt shoot out from the fifth floor.
The boy landed on Collins' hard rub
ber helmet and the boy and firemen
went to the ground together. The
boy was killed almost instantly' and
Collins knocked insensible. He is
seriously injured and his recovery is
doubtful. When the flames were ex
tinguished the firemen found on the
fifth floor the bodies of the watchman
named Herman and a boy. Both boys
were Herman's sons.

PARBOILED IN A DYE VAT.
Terrible Plunge of Peter Kelly In West
Phiidelphia.
Parboiled in giant vat of dye wa
ter was the awful fate which befell
Peter Kelly at a dye works yesterday.
Kelly ascended to the top of the huge
vats for the purpose of stirring the
materials in process of dyeing in the
steaming liquid. He walked out upon
the plank over the top and with a long
poll began stirring. Suddenly Ws
foot slipped and down be plunged
headforemost into the scaldiug liquid.
The vat is eight feet deep and was
full of liquid. Kelly disappeared,
but struggled to the surface and seiz
ed the wooden wall of the great tub,
to which he clitnir in a death grip.
His wild cry drew the attention of his
fellow-employes, who quickly sprang
to his rescue. They pulled him out
and despite the sickening sight that
followed worked like heroes to relieve
the pnor man's sufferings. As they
carefully carried him to the floor be
low his flesh peeled off at their touch.
Such clothing as could be removed
without tearing off great patches of
flesh with it was taken off, and such
relief as could be afforded with the
few materials at hand was quickly
administered. The tuoaus and cries
of the parboiled man turned many of
the strongest men to tears. He lapsed
into uncoiisc.oiisneHS, and the sur
geons found that his whole body from
scalp to toes was a mass of blisters
and quivering flesh. They did what
they could to relieve the sufferer, but
said it was hopeless. The man can
not live.
