Why do people read advertisements
To zee whois enterprising and to learn

anything new, or anything that they
want. To. see if the seasons styles

The power Of print is we'll known,
but not well understood. A printed
sentence has q wonderful advantage
over one that is written or spoken. -
This is one Of the many reasons which
gives an Importance to advertising. But
advertisers, even those of experience
do not comprehend as well as they
might the capacity to influence, to per.
suade, to convince, which lies in print
cd matter. Spoken words require the
graces Of eloeution and the force oi
eloquence, yet even theL fade away in.

thing in the silent language, the quiet

New YORK, November 2S.-The
manufacturer of the fraudulent bill
puncher for car-conductors was ar
rested to-day. Conductors using the
device were also arrested.
A telegram from the Cherokee ma
ton, on the 2Sth, says the official in
vestigation by Major ingalls,, OF the
fight here on the oath instant, show
q lamentable condition of affairs.
Over 100 shots were fired. Joseph
Murphy, while quietly at work on a
building, was shot in the breast and
died soon after.
Thomas Hanchett and Thomas DIX
who were wounded by pistol shots,
will probably recover. They are mem
bers of the national council. The
sheriff and his deputy have resigned
and the functions of the guard have
been suspended, as the murderers were
both members of the guard. Inc
sheriff from an adjoining district and
a posse of mounted men are patrolling
the place. over one hundred warriors
have come in, and others are on the
way. The excitement is intense, ant
more trouble is anticipated.
