How A BUSINESS MAN WENT TO RUIN.-lt
is but few years since, says the Chicago Jour
nal. that the house of Bennett, Peters i Co.,
wholesale liouor dealers, and proprietors of the
'tRed Jacket Bitters," stood high among our
best known, most enterprising and responsible
firms. In almost every paper OF the country
their advertisements were to be seen; MI.
Peters was man of fine abilities, and besides
being shrevd and successful in business he was
possessed of superior scholarly attachments.
His nome was among the most elegant and re-
fined in the city, adorned in the most chaste
and beautiful manner, and gracefully PRESIDED
over by his wife, an estimable and accomplished
Iady. While in the full tide of prosperity with
wealth pouring in upon him, Pleters tell. re
could not resist the temptation oHered py Tue
demon concealed beneath the rosy hue OF the
wine cup, and his imagination was heightened
and his brain exhiarated by the sparkling
champagne or his own bitters.
The high reputation of his firm began to te e,
the effects of lis downward course, and hnalIy
came. the crash. Pieters was ruined; he strug-
pled yainly for time, but the power OF the
fend with which he had so long tempered was
too great, and nerveleSS, and INCREASINGLY he
was hurried to the consummation OF his career.
His elegant home soon followed his business
house; rich and valuable presents made to his
family were swallowed up in the general ruin,
or went to crafty still more his unceasing
thirst for drink, until at last he and they were
homeless and well.nigh friendless. a few
months since he enlisted in the United States
service as a private soldier, and is now with
his regiment somewhere on the great plains; OF
the West. His broken-h hearted wife has filed
petition for legal separation from him, al
leeing that she has been reduced to utter pow
erty. and misery through her husbands love OF
intoxicating drink. The story of her mlstor,
tunes is indeed heartrending, and if anything
were yet needed to urge on the friends OF tom
perance and reform it would be found in the
terrible fate of Pieters and his innocent family.

or blind childen, from two Wheels one of which
will contain gifts on printed slips, sealed in en-
velopes of the same size the other will contain
tags with numbers on them corresponding with
ali the tickets sold. After the contents of both
wheels are thoroughly mixed by revolving the
person at the first wheel will take number
therefrom, and then the person at the second
wheel will take gift therefrom, and the gift
mediately before it-this process will continue
the numbers and gifts being publicly announced
until the whole four hundred and one gifts are
distributed Thus the public will readily see
there can be no fraud, collision or knowledge Of
what gif. any number will get.
Should the tickets be not 81 sold when the
Concert comes off, the presents will be distrib-
uted in proportion TO the number sold.
1t is hoped the public will promptly respond
to this effort to establish upon firm basis de-
lightful resort during The heated months.
