Ayer & Son of Philadelphia is unquestionably the largest and probably the best equipped of any in the United States. It has more and larger patrons than any other, and, taking one thing with another, it is questionable whether they are not entitled to the credit of securing for their patrons better service than can be counted on from any other. Although the firm name has always been N. W. Ayer & Son, yet the credit of estab- lishing the business belongs primarily to Mr. Frederick W. Ayer, the present head of the firm. Many persons credit the genial qualities and undoubted ability of Mr. Mc- Kinney, Mr. Ayer’s junior, with having ex- erted a vast influence in the wide extension of the business. Had Messrs. Ayer & Son removed their principal offices to New York city twenty years ago their business would at this time be more than double what it is at present; but it should be, and doubtless is, a great source of pride and satisfaction to Mr. Ayer and Mr. McKinney that they have been able, while remaining in Philadelphia, to build up a larger advertising business than has ever been secured before by any advertising agency in New York or elsewhere. a The Illinois superintendent of insurance has revoked the license of the American Employers’ Liability Insurance Company of New Jersey, because the annual state- ment of the company was unsatisfactory to the department.

The report of Brig. Gen. Richbourg, who commanded the troops at Darlington and Florence, 8. C., during the late dispensary troubles, has been made public. The report includes the report of the mil- itary court of inquiry held in connection with the coroner's inquest on the deaths of Norment, Redmond and Pepper. This court, composed of five officers, after summarizing the testimony declared that it “firmly be- lieves that had McLendon not interfered the chief of police would have had no trouble in preserving order and ayoiding the tragedy.” The court further concluded that Norment came to his death at the hands of Mc- Lendon, and that the killing was felonioz murder; that Constable Pepper was killed by Lewis Redmond, and that Redmond was feloniously killed by Constable C. Cain. The report states that Redmond was run- ning when Cain shot him in the back with a Winchester rifle. SSeeeeentaels re AES RICHARD WISTAR'S WILL. Money Left to Found a Library and Aid Deserving Mechanics. The will of Richard Wistar, the eccentric Philadelphia millionaire, who died on Sat- urday and was buried Wednesday, w made public that night. He makes numer- ous bequests to friends and servants, in- cluding legacies of $30,000 to Mary J. Mc- Intyre, the housekeeper of his brother end himself, and $10,000 each to his lawyer and agent, who are named as executors and trustees. The residue of the estate is to be held in trust to found and endow a free memorial library on the site of the family residence. The trustees are also empo ed to make loans to deserving mechi and to purchase free beds in hospita’ | ; Should these bequests become inoperativ e the estate goes to the executors. The ex- ecutors will not push the lawsuits over damages awarded Mr. Wistar for the tak- ing of the mint and high school sites. A question arises as to the charitable be- quests,as the law requires them to be made | thirty days before the death of testator, | and Mr. Wistar made his will but tive days before his death, -tee Canal Claimants Indignant. Great comment has*been caused by Gov. Brown's veto of the bill for the rellef of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal creditors.

The Maryland Presbytery at Baltimore, Wednesday, refused, by nearly a tle vote, to invite the Young People’s Society of Christian Endeavor to meet in that city in 1896. Dr. Murkland, who opposed the invi- tation, said: “We never as a presbytery invite the Women’s Christian Temperance Union or Young Men's Christian Association con- ventions to come here, neither do we in- vite even the general assemblies of other churches. It is against the spirit and sen- timent of the Presbyterian Church and against its precedents. The whole conven- tion, as proposed, will stir up the city and there will be a great hullabaloo. At a re- cent meeting in the interest of the cause under discussion those present sang ‘John Brown's Body Lies a-Mouldering in the Grave.’ " Dr. Murkland asked, “Why should the presbytery be asked to thus give its in- dorsement to a body which has no eccic siastical connection? We would not expr. this welcome to the general convention of another chure! The resolution was then voted down, with the understanding that such action Cid not imply any hostility to the Christian En- deavor movement. Dramatic Scen rt. When sentence was pronounced yester- day upon Wm. H. Griffith of Tonawanada, ¥., convicted of manslaughter, the pris- oner created a sensation in the court room by walking across the room to where the widow of the murdered man sat weeping, and kneeling before her, said: “Mrs. Emer. json, I am sorry I killed your husband,” in a broken voice. Boston Democrats Banquet. A dinner, commemorative of the birth of Thomas Jefferson, was given at the Quincy House at Boston last evening by the Young Men’s Democratic Club of Massachusetts. Nearly 200 members and guests were pres- ent. The leading speakers were: Mr. J. Sterling Morton, Secretary of Agriculture: Mr. James H. Eckels, controller of ‘the currency; Mr. John E.

March winds anf April showers sweep and scour the earth and clear the air of winter impurities, making it sweet and wholesome. ‘The same thing takes place in the body, the pores open and the bleod that creeps in winter now rushes through the arteries in a fuller, stronger stream. Now is the great season of purification, of new fife, new hope, new ambition. It is the best time to get well. Spring ts hopeful, and the invalid gets Well quicker when hopeful than when despondent. ‘Thousands of people throughout the country are this month taking Paine’s celery compound—the great spring medicine that makes people well. “What March does not kill may be done for by April,” says an old adage. The nine weeks from February 1 to May 1 develop the hidden germs of disease inside the body and without.

Phelps, M.D., LL.D., while he was still active professor in the Dartmouth medical school: A remarkable nerve food and blood purifier, it fs the most valuable contribution to the world’s progress that American college influence bas sent forth. Its power of restoring lives of countless men and Women from feebleness and despair to strength and usefulness is known in every part of the country. It bas added years of active, joyous ex- istence to thousands of weak, tired-out, ailing wo- men Who thought themselves doomed to be invalids for the rest of their days. Paiue’s celery com- pound cures thoroughly and finally rheumatism, neuralgia, dyspepsia, diseases of the heart, liver, and kidneys and every form of nervous weakness. it cures as nature cures, by feeding the vital tn- most parts cf the body, the blood and nerves, apls IMPROVED TRADE CONDITIONS And the Fiffect Upon the U. Gold Exportatio: The Secretary of the Treasury has re- ‘ceived notice that about $2,000,000 in gold coin will be required for export tomorrow, about half of which will be drawn from the treasury, and an equal amount from the New York banks. It is the opinion of | the treasury officials that this shipment is | the beginning of the usual spring exporta- | tions, and that they are likely to continue |for some tiime. This fact, however, is | Pot regarded as a special cause for alarm. The net gold in the treasury is $105,963,- 539, Last year at this time the gold exporta- tions were abnormally heavy, reaching $19,148,964 during April, and $16,914,317 in May. In June they had dropped to $2,711,- 226, and in July to $174,212. The financial and business conditions in Europe, as weil as in the United States, however, have materially changed for the better since last year, and in consequence the prediction is confidently made that the exportations will reach only a fraction of what they were one year ago. The distrust that then everywhere prevailed has disappeared to a great extent, and the money market, both at home and abroad, is much easier. Eng- land and France are now well supplied with gold, and Russia is not now an active buyer. Austria is the only European na- tion that is making any special effort to secure gold, and with these conditions pre- vailing the outlook is not bad. ———__+2+____. Long Distance Conversations.
