FOURTH OF JULY.
IEigh-Handed Outrage on the
Plains.

OMAHA, July 2.
The wife of a section master, APT
miles west of here, while alone in the
section house the other day, was assault
ed by negro and a white man, and in
the struggle that ensued was cruelty and
almost fatally shot. The rufians then
fled, and the woman tainted from loss
of blood. Upon being found by her
husband in the evening, help was pro-
cured and she was carried to Sidney.
At once a crowd of excited and angry
citizens and soldiers formed and went in
pursuit of the scoundrels. They were
overtaken among the bluffs, and were
instantly shot down in their tracks
without mercy. Such is the quick IS
tice of far western community.

NEWSPAPER PosTAGE-THE FACTs.-
The law does not-after the Both ult-
require full prepayment of postage on
all printed matter. Transient or miscel-
laneous matter must be fully prepaid at
the mailing office. Regular publications
known as newspapers or periodicals may
be sent to subscribers after the Both ult.,
unpaid, and the postage collected quar-.
terly of the subscribers. Newspaper
exchanges may be prepaid quarterly
either at the office of mailing or deliv-
cry.
The requirement of full prepayment
on transient printed matter is statutory,
not departmental, and therefore cannot
be abrogated by the Postmaster Gene
raj. 1t is made the duty of all post
masters to collect all deficient postage
at the office of delivery, whether upon
letters or printed matter, more or less,
such matter being inadvertently trans
mitted in the mails. 1t is not shown that
more is collected at the Washington of
flee than is legally due, or more than at
other offices, in proportion to the guam
tity of such matter delivered.
If any statement has been made that
no papers will be sent without prepay
ment, then a mistake has been made,
for large numbers are sent daily to sub
scribers as provided by law.
One cent will fully prepay on any
daily or weekly published in New York,
but it will not carry two such papers.

The Best Commercial Policy.

Advertise. Advertise! Now, here
after and continually-dG infnjttlm. If
you desire ready sales, quick profits, and
financial success generally, then adver-
tise. 1t is now well established fact
that those who advertise the most extern
sively, make the most money. Those
who do not advertise, exhibit the truth
of the old saying; ''Penny wise-pound
foolish" The erroneous remark is often
made: "What's the use of advertising?
People never read the advertisements.
The falsity of this assertion will be read
lily understood if we make a personal
application of the case in question. For
instance we all know that we are occa-
siOnally in want of something, and we
at once peruse the columns of our daily
paper to find that something. Well,
now, when we think of the great num-
Der of readers of the paper, and ponder
upon the great variety and difference
temporarily of their wants, we will at
once recognize the necessarily beneficial
results of advertising now, hereafter and
continually-0d infnitaIna.
Were it necessary to further establish
the force of the assertion that adVertis-
ing is the best commercial policy, there
could easily be furnished numerous Illus
trations and arguments proving the truth
of this assertion.
However, it is hardly necessary as it
is an almost universally recognized fact
that it is best for business men to adver-
tse This being so, we would remind
our business men of the increasing inn
portance Of the Rutland HERALD as a
medium for circulating their business
interests throughout the county and
State. The Daily and Weekly HERALD
has the largest circulation of any paper
in the State. Moreover, thanks to the
kind favors of our friends, and to our
own determination to make THE HERALD
one of the best papers in northern New
England, the circulation of THE HER
AID is daily and weekly increasing.
Owing to the calls for advertising
space we have been obliged, for the past
two months, to issue weekly a supple
ment, acceding to the demands of some
of our chief business houses by giving
them a page, or half page, or quarter
page in the supplement.
By issuing these supplements, we
thereby accommodate our advertisers,
and give our readers the benefit OF seven
or eight columns of extra reading matter.

FULL AND SEMI-DREss SUITS Full
dress suits for gentlemen show no change
in style, and remains black throughout
the claw-hammer coat, very low rolled
vest, and easy-fitting pantaloons being
made from one piece of cloth. The
neck-tie is folded white lawn, the shirt
front is slightly embroidered, boots are
of finest calf-skin, and gloves are the
faintest tints of pearl or flesh color. For
summer fetes, hops at watering places,
hotels, and country festivals, where
people profess to use less ceremony than
in cities, this suit is abandoned for the
simpler semi-dress toilette, such as is
generally worn for visiting, church, and
promenades. This consists of double
breasted frock-coat of black or very
dark blue "worsted suiting" in tiny ar
mure figures, made with widely bound
edges. The vest is of the coat material,
and also has wide binding. The panta-
looms are of light gray-not pure pearl
color, but with green or blue shading.

Bridal TrOusseaus.

The PaU HaU CARTE thinks that a
man about to marry can commit no
greater error than to interfere in any
way with regard to his intended wife's
trousseau. BY so doing he is guilty of
an act of extreme presumption, and he
also incurs a pecuniary responsibility
often of a serious nature. In dispute
about a bride s trOusseau, Sheriff Lees,
at Airdrie, in Scotland, has just issued
an interlOcutor, which fully enters into
the law as to a husbands liability in this
respect. In the case in question the
husband was sued by the tradesman who
supplied the outfit, and, as it was clear
~ proven that they were supplied on the
defendants order, the sheriff held him
liable in the amount of the account,
F27 S.. with G3 Is. lid. cost. The de-
lenses stated were First-That it was
the duty of the brides father to provide
her wedding outfit and, second, that
the account should be reduced or disal-
lowed, as it was eXtrayagant for the
position of the defenders wife. The
learned sheriff, in long note, enters
into the law on this point, and finds that
while in ordinary cases the husband
would not be liable, yet when, as IN this
case, the goods were got on his express
order, he must be held to be the respon-
sible party, and cannot be allowed to
complain of extravaganza. This seems
only fair; for if husbands have ordered
their wives trousseaus they cannot COM
plain if they are subsequently called
upon to pay; but often both husband
and wife few months after marriage
bitterly regret that large sum which
might have been usefully expended in
paying the grocer's, butchers, and bak-
cr's bills, or furnishing their house, has
found its way into the milliner's pocket
in the purchase of vast number of use
less articles.
