THE OMAHA DAILY BEE{™MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1880 THE COMMERGCIAL TRAVELER, Eomothing Interesting and Enter- taining For and Regarding Him, A LIVELY MISSOURI ROMANCE, How George Nixon Wooed and Won His Wite—A Home 1hat is Badly Needed—Dawson Mayer's Lecture—Notes. How He Got His Wife, George Nixson is the young, jolly, good-natnred princeof good follows who represents Hood, Bonbright & Co., of Philadelphia, in this section of country. George is married and with his court- ehip is connected a story. The affair happened in Missouri about two years ago, and although George's methods may not have beon exaetly fair and proper, any one who has seen Mes, Nixson will readily admit that to win such a wife he would have been justi- fied 1n resorting to almost any plan, evon to the extent of kidnapping. Mvrs. Nixson before mar) Treuton, Mo., where her father kept a store. To Trenton George was wont to g0 to rell goodsand the old man wasone of his best customers, While trying to induce the old gen- tleman to purchase a carload or two of dress goods when he only wanted a case or two George met his prosent wilo, She was, and is yet, a divinity for that matier. Eyes that dancod and flashed like stars from the long, dark lashes, teeth like pearls. lips that suggest only kiss- ing, it islittle wonder that George was smitten, Of course he was introduced, and it was strange, indeed, the zealous: ness with which he watched the old merchant’s interests after that, It secmed as if ho stood in constant dread of the old man’s stock running out. About once in two weeks he would drop down upon him and insist on overhaul- ing all the shelves and ascertaining if the lutest lines of dress fabrics wi to be found, and if not he would insist on sending something. The old* man got to liking himquite well, in fact so much 80 that George rarely ate dinner at his hotel but dined at tho house. Blanche, for that was her name, and he grew quite intimate and often of evenings the pair might have been seen either riding or walking about to- gother. Finally one summor evening George concluded to try his luck, and, after the most approved Philadelphin provosod. To his infinite surpri mortitication she unqualifiedly ) him. Said she didn’t love him, didn’t want to marry and that he was not her kind of a fellow; in fact, gave him what is termed the laugh. George was all broke up and when he dropped down to the store to bid her father good-by the old chap noticed something wrong ond inquired what was the matter. Nixson told him. 'Oh, that’s it. Well, now, sce here, Blanche never did know what she wanted, and I expect she never wiil. But you hrace up, young man, brace up. Don’t let her see that you mind it a bit, Como just as ofton s ever. ‘She'll Lhuu"n her mind before long, I'li bet,” Greutly encouraged, George left. He roturned in ubout the usual time, the same old George, gay as ever. Not by any look or sign did he betray his feelings. Instead of paying as much attention to Blanche as formerly, he liept away as much as possible. And his scheme worked well, for the girl was much piqued by his change of wanner towards her. Blanche had a mania for fishing, and a little lake ouiside Wenton, which abounded in croppics, bass and perch was one of her favorite resorts. It was there that George captured her. She had taken her little pole and gone out as usual, alone. 50n con- cluded to follow her and did so. He saw her get in her little boat and row out to her favorite spol near an old stump where she usually anchored her craft. She stepped out on one of the roots and made ready to tie up, when sad to relate, she dropped the chain and in less then a minute the boat was ten feet away. With a slight scream of vexation she reached round to cateh it with her pole when, alas, she went down plump into the water water waist deep. George saw it all and hastened to her rescue. Hastily jumping into another boat he rowed out to the spot. She saw him coming, of course, and the fol- lowing conversition ensued: **Oh, Mr. Nixson, I am so are here. Did you gee me fal feet ure fust in the mud, anl stir.” tm—m,” said George, as he kept his boat just out of her reach. He had an idea. “Why don’t you come where I can get in the boat?”’ continued Blanche. “Blanche,” said George. “Well?” replied Blanche. “Will you marry me?” “No, I won’t: I told you so three glad you Aund’'my I can'’t *Then I think T will go back to town, 1 just remember some business that 1 ought to attend to.” “Why, vou mean thing, are you going to leave me here in the water, and you know I can not swim, nnd it’s deep between here nn(l the shore, and T will drown, o T will— “llh\luhu," lnlcl'ruplcfl Gunrgo “Woll, what do you want?” *You,” was the reply. ‘‘Blanche, will you marry me?” “Now George Nixson, I think you are real mean to take advantage of a girl thut is stuck in the mud. And the water is 80 co-0-0-1d, and 1 know I will die.’ “Blanche,” solemnly put 1 George, “this 15 the third and last call; will you marry me*” “Well,” was the reply, have to, but it aw’t fair.” “Will you marvy me? “Yes," snapped Blanche, “‘now no more nonsense. Tale me i1n that boat. Yes, I'll marry you, and l‘ll make life a burden to you, 50 I will.” “Hold on,” suid George, ‘‘you are still in the mud. Now you will marry we and be the nicest little duckof a wife on earth; you will be as sweet us you can be, and will not find fault if I o to lodges or stay out late once in a ile, und you—o» “Iskall do wo such Blaunche, “Then you stay where you are,” said e, a8 ho dipped his oarsin the 4 & s‘pusu rn thing,” put in ge,” said Blanche, *‘come 1 will pnmmw anything. Take me out of here.” And George took her out, They were married the next week, be- cause the old man insisted thatshe might change her mind, una George agreed with him. The (‘nlnllwrulll rambassedor. Sutucday night at Young Men's Christian association hall Dawson Mayer lectured to a small sudience, his subject being “The Commercial Ewm- bassador, or Nineteen Years on the Road.” Awong other interesting things; he said that when one takes into consideration all that has been done by him, the traveling man de- serves to be distinguished by the diplo- matie, high sounding tittie of commer- cial embassador. In New York and Brooklyn, he continued, there are 85,000 teaveling men; in Philadelphia ond Pennsylvania, 30,000; Boston , 26,000; Chicago, 95,000; St. Touis, 20,000; Balti- more, 30,000, and in l’flhhurg, 50.000. More than a quarter of amillion men in America earn their living by selling goods on the road. The traveling men to-day are handi- capped by having a tax levied upon them. Several southern states charge $100 a year for a man _to sell goods on the road. A bill introduced into econ- gress did away with this in some states. A pamphlet is soon to be issuved to merchants asking them to examine the various tuxes levied on traveling men and consult with their congressmen reo- garding them. In France the commercial traveler invariably, from personal observation, calls on his customer in patent leath- ors, kids, carrying a cane, and having a uniformed porter to carry and unpack his grip or trunks. When they call on a customer, whether in Paris or else- where, thoy form in line and take their turn, for many of them are almost con- tinvatly calling at the same time. In I'rance the traveling man is treated like a prince. In Germany, also, every traveling man is accompanied by a porter. The traveling man in England is more crude in his attire and hab and yet, although he hasn’t so much polish, he gets there just the same. He spends his leisure time 1n coffee rooms, smoking his pipe and playing cless. There are a fow ladies on the road, but the speaker thought that it he were a woman he should never follow the life. He hed met one lady wno told him she hatl sold $67,000 worth of ladies’ and children’s knit goods in 1887, She is now with Wanamaker and desires to join the Trnvchn%‘l\lcn's association, but the prospects of her being able to do 80 now seems a little dubious, not- withstanding thereis nothing in the constitution preventing ladies from joining. Speaking of the Traveling Men’s Pro- tective associntion and its present con- dition, Mr. Mayer said that it was to him a inystery why the organiza- tion is not better sustained. In 1872 it had a membership of 26,000, while now it has but 8,000. Ile foreibly illustrated how the traveling men were losing by taeir indifference to the or ganization by suying that while vi ident he calléd on the general y \gent of one of the most promi- ads to sccure a special rute on excoss bauggage. “How many t in the United cial. “Two hundred ling men are th ?7 usked the o thousand,” was the “Abo\\t h\LnH thousand.” aimed tho railroad man, with mgmh it emphasis, “‘it seems our o ion request reprosents '(-ulu\m) small minority. No, sir, I can give you no encouragement what- ever. When you have 50,000 members come and see me.” A New Project. The progress of commerce in the United States during the last decade has been more marked than at any other period of American history, and the important mission now being ful- filled by the representatives of South and Central Amevica in hearty co-opera- tion with this government makes one pouder for a moment on what the des- tiny of this continent will be in the next ten years. The great inward motor of so many monumental business houses through- out the land 1s the commercial trave cr. It is to him the many firms distributed from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from Winnipeg to the Rio Grande look for the introdu n and sale of their multitudinous fabrics, farming imple- monts, neoessities and luxuries of life, the mmported as well as those pro- duced at home. He is the hub, figura- tively speaking, around which the wheel of commerce revolves. Takehim away and the frame work of trade vir- tually collapses. He is the ncknowl- edged mainspring of thousands of firms '.hmuglmuhlh\s productive land, yet look about and you find him, of all’ men ocoupying busines positions, compara- ly the least compensated for hisser- vices. It 1s claimed from statistics obtain- able that there are close on to 300,000 commercial travelers in the Urited Stutes whose livelihood pends on selling merchandis by sample, catalogue, bhotograhic dosign, or printed quotations, and each season adds more to the vast army of breadwinners, plodding along over the highway of commerce in search of orders. By comparison, the commercial traveler is a trifle more liberal, some- what more extravagant in his tastes generally, and mduuull) more gener- ousthan hisco-worker following another colling in life. Inconsequence of these virtues you find him eventually called to a higher sphere when tae flame of life flickers, and when called he ravely leaves nis dear ones any considerable legacy and only fairly provided for. This, un(ortuuuwly 15 50, in most cases, perhaps 75 per cont of the aggregate. The subject therefore soon to be pre- sented to the commercial traveler, and which should in a great measure be weil considered by the merchants of the United Stutes, is the important one of establishing a national institution which shall have for its object the training and maintenance of the chi dren of deceased traveling men. Not an orphanage, but a magnilicent homo, where the sons and duughters of such widows of traveling men ma, to be fitted for the var ning for making, culina kindred domestic ployments, gether with branches of art for those whose fancy so leads them, and the sons might be instructed in civil engi- neering, lithographing, and, in fa many professions and mechavical po- sitions which may make them sell-re linut and independent when either sex veaches the age of discretion. € This would relieve the responsibility u! the mother, if she so chooses to apply for their sojourn there, aud still bring her children in direct’ companionship with agood element of society. In this connection the writer would say that there is at present such an organization estublished for over fifteen years and successfully managed in Bugland. The merchants employing traveling men there, by subscription among them- selves, raised several hundred thousand dollars to build the edifice, and it is kept in running order through yearly membership by the commercial ers and *merchants whom they sent. A central point could be decided on betwoen the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. A piece of land could be secured ata rental of #1 per year for ninety- nine years, and there is nodoubt but the realization of such a project will bo heralded wnh delight by the *“*Knights of the Grip” throughout the entire country. Without & doubt it is well worthy of careful consideration, and all.hough never brought to the attention of the commorcial travelers to consider, they will, upon mature refleetion, thoroughly understand its importance and feasibil- ity. Who will agitate the issuo? The lce 1s Broken. Henry Hahn, the Omaha representa- tive of a large New York tobacco manu- factory, has just returned from a suc- cessful tripinto the northwest as far as Portland. Seattle and other larger towns out that way, He reports business ac- tive, merchants in good humor, and everybody prosperous. Fora long time eastern firms have been offering all sorts of iuducements for trade inr that part of the country, but until Mconflf’ thoy found it very difficult to accomplish much against the competition of San Francisco. “‘However,” says Mr. Hahn, “we have finally broken the ice, and 1 am satis- fied that hereafter things will be mueh different. When I struck Portland this time and told the merchants thore that 1 came to do business, they were glad to seé me, and no man was ever treated more royally. The trouble has ulways been due to the audacious manner which San Francisco jotbers have com- pelied the Pacific coast retailers Lo buy of them, but rates from the east are better now, and they have become more independent, and therefore can afford to buy froin eastern men.” Grip Sack Notes. Colonel D. Davis, the eloquent ora- torical tourist for L. B. Lebman & Co., Chicago, sojourned over Sunday 1n Omaha. The colonel has a great many friends here, who are always pleased to see him. It is understood that an effort will be made this winter to revive the Ne- hl aska Division of the Travélers’ Pro- ve nssociation. The traveling men are very anxious to have the railroads arrange a time table that will give better satisfaction between Omaha and Sioux City. Owing to poor connections at Blair and Mis- souri Valley, deluys of an hour or more each way not only cause much aunnoy- ance, but a loss of time that could ve utilized to good advantage among mer- chants in both the towns.

Campbell, St. Racine, W An English Youth Who Has Most Wonderful Powers of Vision, John Thomas :Ieslop, of Birmingham, England, is a lad whose powers of vi- sion are to be accounted among the marvelous, He is known as “‘the living microscope” on account. of being able to see the most minute objects clearly de- fined. 1In 1878 or 1879 he was attacked with some baflling eye trouble and came very near losing his sight forever. After the disease had reached its worst there was an instant and startling change for the better, which resulted in a complete cure of all inflammation in an incredibly short time. It was nota cure, however, that brought back the old eyesight likke that possessed by the averago genus homo. When it returned it was with extraordinary increased powers of vision. To John Thomus the most minute plunt louse was as large as a rabbitand the mosquito bill as lurge asan ax hand He could see and describe dis minute objects with startling and precision. He was amazingly shocked upon repairing to the well to get a cooling draught to see the im- mense number of hideous creatures that were floating, fighting and wiggling about iu the water, From that day to this water has never passed the lips of John Thomas Heslop; his drinks consist wholly of coffee, tea and miik, thoroughly boiled. The doc- tors say that the entire organization of the eye has undergone a structural change, that the cornes has become abnormally enlarged, and that the crystalline lens have divided into thr differcnt discs or circles, each circle surrounded by auother of light blue. In the center of each of the these three circles appears an ¢ dimin- ished iu size. but an iris nevertheless. Medical reports have been i on the case by journals such as whe Laneet.

But the Paris restaurant is much ¢heaper. It enjoys the title of “Au Hasard de la Four- chette.” In it*™a hu cauldron hangs over a fire. ft s filled with all sorts and conditions of eatables. The customer pays three conts to tho burly gentleman who is in charge. He scceives in return a huge long handled fork. This he plunges into the pot once—-no more. Idid not try my luck, but I found it interesting to watch those who did. It was a pecu- liar game of chance, and those who played it showed more interest in it than you can gee on the faces of the amblers at Monaco. Sometimes a ucky ona would bring up a chicken wing or a substantial chunk of meat, and thereon his face would light. Bat moro often the fork would come up laden with only a potato or some insignificant article. However, that made no differ- ence. The player had to be satisfied with his winnings or he would travel to the street with more velocity than com- fort. Altogether the ‘I 'ork Hazard” is a queer place and is worth secing. DRS.
