The World’s Fair of 1892. To the Editor of Tax Evexmxe Stan: While the New York editors and writers are trying to work up a public sentiment in favor of holding the “world fair” of 1892 in this city the question will push itself to the front, “Where can the great buildings be located?” ‘The papers have made the most frantic efforts to keep this vital question in the background. Letters from correspondents asking the editors this question are not answered. The truth is New York city has not got in the whole length and breadth of this long, narrow island enough suitable, unoccupied land for the buildings of one state. After months of the most earnest and active work among real estate dealers and land owners the New York base ball club were compelled to accept for ball grounds a low, wet lot of land, on which they had to expend nearly 40,000 in filling and grading alone before they could play upon the grounds. One of the lead- ing morning papers admitted to-day that the only available ground for the fair of 1892 was “across larlem river, in Westchester county.” Another question that presents an unan- swered problem is, “How can the great crowds be transported to and from the grounds, pre. vided a site could be found in the city?” It is painfully apparent to the everyday crowds of this city that already the street cars, elevated cars, cabs, public carriages, and 5th-avenue omnibuses are packed full of sitting and stand- ing humanity every hour of the day. What ould the people do with the great rush of sight-seers that would throng the streets dur- ing the world’s fair? ‘The silly society fight of “leading city gen- tlemen” over the question of leadership of the late “centennial” show in this city would seem boa prt that New York’s “best” men are tired and shoald have a rest, The building of the great pedestal for the “Goddess of Liberty,” the trying to raise money enough to build Gen. Grant's tomb, and the late centennial society fight has fatigued New York's great men so that it would be cruel to ask them to run the world’s fair in 1892, It would seem that for once New York should listen to the voice of the rest of the country and admit that Washington is the proper city in which to hold the coming great “world’s fair.” Washington has ample and beautiful grounds so near the very heart of the city that the question of transportation need not be thought of, for the pegple would transport themselves, and that along beautiful. smooth, shady streets. The grand, wide avenues. with the stately reservations, magnificently adorned, make the city of Washington the finest city il the world in which to hold the great exhi tion.

It was comical. Keefe Pitched for New York and tried all the tricks he knew, but they didn’t work. The Senators waited till the ball cut the heart of the plate and then they smashed it. And when it didn’t cut the heart of the plate Umpire Quinn sent them to first on balls. So it was a blue day for | E. Gibson, Tim. Still, that wasn’t the only reason New York lost, There was another reason, and it was hidden in the anatomy of a young man named Fearson. What funny name! Quite fg oe his pitch, Tals young man and ‘outs’—and tried them one the other on the champions with it success. How beautifully he did scatter few hits New York made! And the yours man was so elated over his success that he de- clared he would “strike” his club at once for “raise.” In the very first inning this young man showed how helpless the champions were before him. There were zee cpectaloes on the ground and they had to rub eyes again and aes before they felt sure that it was Wizard Keefe who was pitching.” The Sun remarks: “‘As for We they played just as well as they knew how. Clarke did very clever work at third, and Wil- mot came in for his share of the glory by mak- ing ® one-hand catch of a fly from Richardson's bat in the fourth it cut off a three- base hit. The only run by the home team was scored in tho —* for, 2 Ewin, opened the inning with a pretty hit towa1 second base and beat the ball out.

The visitors began scoring right at the start Hoy got to first on balls, Ward fumbled Wil- mot's grounder and Daily got — on balla Sam Wise step) up and ra; out a long line hit to center field, which Bore waited for until it got over his head. It resulted in atwo- base hit and enabled Hoy and Wilmot to score. Irwin struck out, Clarke hit for one base to right field and went to second on the: throw in, while Daily and Wise scored. Clarke had no trouble in stealing third while the New York players were kicking over a decision at the plate, and he easily scored on a wild pitch, Bor in'the second inning, got a base on ball: and Wilmot put the ball under the right fiel seats for a home run, adding 2 more runs to the visitor's score, In the fourth inning a hit to right by Ferson and a two-base hit ty Hoy to right center, which was fielded in badly by Gore, put Ferson over the plate and Hoy on third, from which point the latter scored on a long fly by Wilmot to Slattery. This wasa sufficient lead for the visitors to win.” After a column wail the Herald winds up thus: “There, now, is the story of the cham- pions’ crushing defeat. But for that wild pitch a the eighth how much sadder it would have en.” Washington made 9 hits and 1 error and New York 6 hits and 4 errors, Carney made two singles, Hoy and Wise a two-bagger each, Wilmot a home run, and Wise, Clarke and Ferson each $ single.

A short time ago a drummer from abroad called at a Bangor livery stable and wanted a double team for a ten days’ trip into the country, and the stable man refused to let him one on the ground that he was a stranger, There was much discussion over the matter, and finally the drummer said: ‘ “What is your team worth?” “Four hundred and fifty dollars,” was the reply. RT pay you that sum for it, will Phe buy it back again when I return?” asked the cus- tomer, and upon receiving an affirmative reply, he promptly put up the cash. ‘Ten days later he returned, and driving into the stable, he alighted and entered the office, saying, ‘Well, = is your team, and now I want my money acl ‘The sum was passed to him and he turned and was leaving the place when the liveryman called out, “Look here, aren't you going to settle for that team?” ‘t team?” asked the drummer, ina ised tone. ‘or the one you just brought back.” “Well, pen Oe ytd tho- drummer, “you aren't fool enough to think that I would pay any for the use of my own ty, are Tare gnd he shook the dest of + sod Teas ry of the Phonograph. “I was so happy last night,” said the wife, as her neighbor came in to call. “How so?” be a * A fi i ay i ik H Fe A Ape | BE 28 Pa BE eb ap abet or fifteen days, Jas.

From the New York Sun, Itis very interesting to watch the develop- ment of advertising as it appears in the col- umné of the newspapers, Departments of trade. which formerly neglected that means of attracting attention are more and more learn- ing to profit by its advantage. Advertisers are also becoming skillful in the literary construc- tion of their announcements, so that now the advertising columns of a journal really help to enliven its pages, and they present a mass of varied information of great value to the reader. The representations of the advertisements, too, may be taken generally as honest and truthful, for no wise dealer seeks to draw cus- tomers by false pretenses, He must have on his counters exactly what he advertises to sell, and he must sell ‘it at exactly prices. Otherwise his advertisement does him more harm than good. It may bring him in ephemeral trade, but the larger the trade the worse it will be for him in the end. His de- ceived customers will make for him an evil reputation for dishonesty. Therefore, ordinary sagacity prompts the dealer to tell the truth about his goods when he advertises them in the | newspapers, Now and again a scoundrel and a sharper may attempt to impose on the public by publishing swindling announcements, but the number of such is few, and it is growing fewer. Moreover, the papers which such men use as a decoy are soon recognized. The swindling advertisers are after fools and gudg- eons and they are shrewd enough to advertiso in the papers patronized by people of that sort, The cheapening of the process of manufac- ture during recent years has lowered prices greatly. The advertiser accordingly can ap- | eal to the great body of purchasers who must e careful of their money. Hence when a large house advertises bargains it may be as- sumed that bargains they are. The quicker their .sales the more rapidly they turn over | their money, the more successful such dealers are, and to get speedy sales they must tempt urchasers with as low prices as they can offer, The larger the trade they can attract by adver- tising the better it is for each individual pur- chaser, for the greater the volume of their bus- iness the smaller can they fix their average profit, That is the great advantage of advertising. It makes the business known, and by multiplying the number of customers the dealer obtains the means of attracting more. He has more money to expend on his stock, can improve the opportunities which come so frequently to the cash buyer, and can make his margin of profit smaller, The whole success of the great re- tail houses has been built up in this way, There are few of them which have not had) their entire development within very recent years, before which they were little haberdash- ery shops, with a neighborhood trade only, or the no existence at all. There is not one of them which does not owe its success to ad- vertising, In the clothing trade the history is the same. The houses which are getting the custom are those that advertise most liberally and most judiciously, and as their custom increases they are enabled to make their a lower and thus to invite a wider range of the public. The tailors who have followed their example are reaping a like reward and gaining the same ad- vantages. So itis also with the shoemukers, and, as time goes on, thero will be no depart- ment of business which will not profit by the lesson that gxperience teaches so emphatically, So far from having been completed, the de- velopment of advertising is still in its early stages only, ee _______ James McCall of West Troy, N.

Much prosy advice is bestowed on boys and young men that never gets beyond the drums of their ears. One of the most useful ideas you can introduce in a young head is that the owner is bound to make his mark in the world if he chooses to try. Teach him that it depends solely upon himself whether he soars above the dead level of mediocrity or not, whether he crawls or fies, Give him, as far as possible, confidence in his own inherent capabilities, Argue that he has the same faculties by which others have arisen to distinction, and that he has only to cultivate them and apply in their exercise that mighty propulsive + a de termined will, in order to rise. Bid him shoot his arrows not at the horizon, but the zenith. A boy who sets out in life with the idency in his eye, although he may fall short of the mark, will be sure to reach a higher Position than if ambition had been limited the office of town constable or a tide waiter's berth in the custom house. This is a land where poverty is no serious im- pediment to advancement. Very few of our millionaires were born with gold spoons in their mouths, and several off the toct dis- ed of our statesmen earned their bread in early life by the sweat of their brows, Fortune's gifts are wrung from her in this country by the heads and hearts that knew nv such work as fail,and fame has no special favors for the silk stocking class. Action, says Aristotle, is the essence of oratory, but it is more true that energetic will is the soul of success. The best temporal advice a father can give his son is “aspire.” —_—_——_~e+—_____ Good-Bye, Gloss. Is civilization opposed to polish? Does re finement brush off gloss? Is culture taking the shine off things? These are questions observ- ant people must ask. It is a well-known fact that the barbarous people of earth delight in glitter. They grease their skin and polish it to make itshine. They oil their hair and smooth it till it glistens, ey covet ornaments that shine. Nothing is, in their eyes, really beauti- ful until it has a gloss upon it. But as man comes out of his primitive state he begins to turn sway from glittering things, He not only ceases to polish his , but, when he has reached @ high condition of refinement, he powders it to remove the natural pay it has, He not only ceases to oil is hair, but he devises ointments which shall dull it, No lon he delights ory gg ing beads and highly burnished m He oxidizes his silver ornaments and erodes his gold, He likes the quietude of ‘dulled lus- ters,” The more he is cultivated the more he takes to dullness and lets the lusters go. He wants his silks made lusterless, He caste out shiny satins, He even clips his horse to rob him of his glossy coat, All glitter annoys him. He eschews the sunlight. He wears smoked glasses or walks beneat shade. He cuts the brilliant colors because they remind him of the things that glisten. In short, the very much refined man is marked by the absence ofall things shiny about his per- son and his house. That we, as a people, are becoming more and more refined, more and more toned down to the lusterless things of life, is not a debatable proposition. We are walking away from the shiny, and it | does not require very keen poses vision to | see that ultimately there will be no gloss upon us. ly polished boots are going out of use, Even now they are left to the conserva- tives and the vulgar. The leaders of the es- thetes are taking either to russet al or to dull black leathers, such as kangaroo or kid | undressed. Now, if we have reasoned truly, if refinement really op] d to gloss, why may we not | forecast in fashion’s field and prophecy the | downfall of the glazed collar and cuff? Wenot | only may; we do. We'll beta lungful of air that in less than two years polished linen will be vulgar—as vulgar as a hickory shirt. sacri rh peta How times have changed! A story is told of an old resident of Marlborough, who, years ago | when Miles J. Fletcher kept store there, was a | “pillar in the church.” He had, however, an | appetite for strong drink. Fletcher sold whisky by the jugful to nearly all the deacons, elders, | and class leaders, One day the good old man | aforesaid rushed into the store nearly out of | breath and very much ina hurry. “Mi he, “give me two gullins of that there. ing up he saw the dominie and he became con- | fused. “Yes, Miles,” he continued, “that’s | what I said, give me two gallins mackerel in that there jug.” — Kingston Freeman, | Luke Crawford of Thomaston is the cham- pion horse swopper of that place. He had one | day three horses, all together not worth $200, | and during the day traded fifty-five times and quit with one horse, it being one of the same he started with. He also had as a result of the day's work $350 in money, a bull and a buggy. —Macon ( Ga.) Telegraph.
