Tho New Partnership In tho House of A.
yogeler ~ Go.
A most important change in one of the
largest enterprises OF the city took place
yesterday, and inquiry was busy In gather.
ing the facts.
Immediately following the death Of Mr..
Charles A. Vogeler, the surviving partners
of the house, of which he had been the
moving spirit, issued circular TO the trade
and press, which appeared in the columns
of this paper. 1t made public an arrange
ment which, in the exigencles of the mo-
ment was deemed necessary, and an
nounced that 1t was the desire of all con-
cerned to continue its affairs as they had
been previously conducted.
1t was learned. late last evening, that GER
tain changes affecting the permanent estab-
lishment of the business had been resolved
upon, and u reporter OF the Herald was dis
patched TO the Office of Colonel Charles
Marshall, attorney for the estate of the late
Charles A. Vogeler where it was ascer-
Guided, as follows
That the interests of the surviving part
ners had been purchased by Mr.. Christian
Devries, member Of the old and substan-
tial house of William Devries q Co. and
president of the National bank of Balti-
more, and that new firm was about to be
formed under the firm name of The Charles
A Vogeler Co., this name being in honor
and perpetuation of the memory of the late
Charles A. Vogeler. 1t was fur
ther ascertained that the new firm will be
composed of the widow OF the late Mr..
| Vogeler (she retaining her late husbands
| full INTEREST,", Mr.. Christian Devries, as ex-
ecutive partner and financial head, and Mr..
II. D. Umbstaetter who, from the first
step in the initial venture OF the house of
A. Vogeler q Co., was the manager of the
advertising department aud confidential
adviser of Mr.. Charles A. Vogeler.
By this arrangement it has been fully
determined that all the plans and business
purposes of the late Charles A. Vogeler,
the founder and executive manager of the
late firm, shall be developed to their full
fruition, and that the popular preparations
of the house, prominent among which are
st. Jacobs Oil and DR., August Koenig's
Hamburg Family Medicines, shall hold
their high rank under new auspices and the
new management.
There is one feature of this commercial
episode which appeals strongly to the kind
liest feeling and points touching moral
Mrs. Vogeler holds her relation in the firm
with wifely courage. Her whole future is
centered in the resolve that the fruits of so
valuable life as that of her husbands
which was freely sacrificed in his zeal for
the welfare of his native city, and that the
aims and projects he pursued shall not be
permitted to languish, but shall be revived
and strengthened to its credit and 10 his
honor ana fame, and that she will strive to
build for him an enduring monument in
the enterprise of his own founding II Balti.

Does Advertising Pay?

The Portsmouth, (Vir.) Times says, it is
sometimes questioned by merchants
whether advertising pays. The question
will hardly bear discussion in the light Of
the following facts, rates for transient adj
versisements being figured: 1.-The Chicago
Tribune, 1t is said, for column year re-
ceives $4,000. The New York Herald re-
ceives for its lowest-priced columns $50, 723,
and for its highest s34S, 900. The New York
Tribune for it's lowest $29,764, and for its
highest $s5,6iS, and these papers
are never at a loss for advertisements to fill
their columns. Their patronage comes not
from any desire 10 assist the respective
papers, but from business men who find it
profitable to advertise"
1t does pay. A few days ago friend
of ours had gone into maufactur-
ing house in Boltimore in search of
aiming machinery. Il was his -inten-
ton to give an order for machinery
for delivery within the next three mo nths,
which would have given the house profit
Of not less than $500. While he was talk
| ing a solicitor called for an. advertisement OF
machinery for mining journal. He was
told that the firm did not advertise. Our
friend bowed himself out, and this notice
may aoVlse the 1lrm why he never returns.
He pyelersto place his money with firms
having enterprise and an eye to business.
and will buy of those who can afford TO
advertise.
A firm OF manufacturers in Philadelphia
placed an advertisement in journal as an
experiment. They we're very economical
Quakers, and commenced sparingly. Within
three months their advertisements were
running in seven different publications, and
to xtrsfh t1,arfa tiatf re
paying. As well might an enterprising firm
try to save postage as the cost of advertis-
ing. Customers go to those who most per-
sistently extend them an invitation. Ad-
vertising pays an hundred fold.-[Indus-

WE are in receipt Of recent number of
the Chicago Sporting Journal, containing a
long and splendid account OF our late Dal'
las Jockey club races. The reports ofthese
races as they appear in the Journal were
furnished by MEssRs. LOOMS and MCGUIRE,
Of our city, and they are in fact regular con-
tribu.ors to the paper mentioned. The
Journal is owned principally and controlled
by Mr.. YAEK ADAMS, the famous finger
billiardist, and bids fair to become one of
the leading sporting journals of the country.

Considerable excitement was created in
the vicinity of the Texas Express Off ce,
of the employees accidentally dropping his

A large crowd gathered around to see the

The reason is simple. He was enjoying a monday siesta un- der the hand press. He was not only sleeping but he was dreaming. In the bright visions that chased each other across the vista of his soI1noient imagination, there came a time when he was perTneating space and glIding among the mil lions of luminaries that deck our heavens. In short, he "saH stars" While passing between Mercury and Venus he noticed brilliant and terrible comet rapidly approaching its pe-ipelion.

 In the case of the Territory vs. the lyle Bros. before the justice court, the decision was rendered by Judge Richards at 2 p. m. today. It WAS this-don't start1-the pris- oners were discharged on the com plaint, and ordered to Ec held by the Sheriff on a charge of nlisdemeanor. It seems that there is some techni- c9lity of the law which prevents them being held on any other charge. So il seems the law de cides as follows: Any of us can get drunk and start through the crowded thoroughfares, shooting promiscu- ousiy and endangering the lives of all the citizens, but if no one hap pens to be hit by bullets, We escape with a fine of hundred dollars or so, and every body must be satisfied. Look, too, at the men who, thinking the community in danger, so bravely risked their lives in its defense. Docs any one wish to risk his life in an encounter with rufflans, only for the sake of having them, when brought to bay and captured, pay a paltry fine and go free. We have been informed by competent lawyerI that the decision was correct and ac- cording to law. This being the 1 case, all we have to say Is this: There is something wrong about the | law.
