A Circular which We Scatter

Advertise Us
Who Cut Down the Cherry
Tree?

To-day we scatter broadcast through
out this city a four.paged circular OF
price-list which enumerates in "A par
ticular and definite manner a great
many Of the extraordinary bargains
which We are now offering. 1t is
true that we are extensive advertisers
in the .-daily press rrof the city but
when we have such an array Of
BARGAINS
Is we have at this time We would be
unjust to ourselves should We fail to
give them all the publicity possible,
and hence the circular. We advertise
the bargains ana the bargains adver-
tise US. You who read this will
doubtless receive a copy of the cir
cular to which We refer and we ask
you to read 1t carefully for it deals
with solid facts and figures; it is
straightforward, definite aid is not
meant to deceive; but Oh the contra
~ we have ever tried to avoid the
semblance of exaggeration. There
are a great many merchants who
think it no more than excusable bus
mess shrewdness to allure and de-
ceive the business public by the use
of printers Ink, but we regard all
such methods, not only as dishonOra-
bic but also as impolitic. Az certain
house in this city is now trying I"
make the public believe that they
are selling a Wilton carpet at a very
low price but. as u matter OF fact, the f.
carpet they offer is not a Wilton at
all. "Murder will OUT and then
comes the day of reckoning. The |
best thing for a boy to do who cuts
down the cherry tree with his new
hatchet, is to 20 to his father like a
little man and ''Own up'' and prom.
Use never to do so again.
Very respectfully,

Not From Monkeys, but Bears.

The late Mr.. Darwin has a fOrmid-
able rival in his great feat of tracing
the origin and descent Of man from
the monkey. Prot. Gheike challenges
him, in respect at least to the people
of northern Europe and American
Indians. They, he says. descended
from bears, which, having 1oated
southwark on icebergs toward the
end of the glacial period, could not
return. The warmth of the climate
made them shed their furry coat and
they walked on their hind feet 50 as
to keep their fore legs dry. Thus, in
process of time, by successive modifi.
cations, they developed into men.

Blaine In New York.

NEW YORK, Sept 22-Mr Blaine received
a large number of friends at the Fifth
Avenue hotel Saturday. A serenade took
place in front of the Republican headquarters
at night. A platform was erected in front
of the parlor floor of the headquarters, from
which Mr.. Blaine reviewed the procession.
There were many other prominent men on
the platform. Mr.. Blaine addressed the as.
semblage after reviewing the parade Dur.
ing the last twenty-four hours the amount of
money forwarded to the national committee
has been larger, so is stated, than that re
ceived by them during any other period o,
three times the length.
Mr.. Blaine's imost: important visitor has
teen Gen. Grant. The latter called about 4
o'clock in the afternoon. He came after the
pressure of callers upon MIR. Blaine's atten-
tion had begun to relax. Gen. Grants call
was wholly unexpected. He sent no word in
advance. His card came up first. There
we're number of visitors with Mr. Blaine
when Gen. Grant came in. Mr.. Blaine arose
at once and met Gen. Grant with the utmost
cordiality. Gen. Grant and Mr. Blaine had
quite long talk in Elkins' private room.
They talked about the general situation.

EGYPTIAN FINANCES.
A Late Move of the British Causes
a Breeze in Europe.
Apparent Intention OF England 60
Gobble the Land Oft the Pharoahs
-Gordon Gives the NIahdi
DrubbinS.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22-The Sun publishes
the following cablegram: Great surprise Is
expressed in London at the announcement
that the Egyptian ministry has resolved TO
divert to the payment of current ex.
penses tho revenues hitherto devoted
to the payment Of the interest and
principal Of Egyptian bonds. This
is very practical and summary
suspension of the law of liquidation, and the
late Egyptian conference expressly refused
to consent to such suspension. The act OF
suspension is recognized as an act for which
England is responsible, for, although it Is
ordered by the Egyptian minister Of
finance, it is well known that the
whole Egyptian government, from ohe
khedive down, Is under the
tutelage of Lord Northbrook, and practically
ruled from Downing street The event ha
caused furry among Egyptian bondholders
In London, and has created a sensation
throughout Europe. 1t is certain to lead to
diplomatic grievances, and France is ex-
pected to set the ball in motion by arranging
for a combined protest of the powers The
London press is all at sea regarding
this new complication and its prob
able effects. The Liberal journals are
half frightened at the audacity of Lord
Northbrook's action, and the Tory papers are
furious. The latter say that Mr.. Gladstone
called council of the powers, submitted to
it programme which was promptly re-
jected, and then proceeded to carry out that
programme as though the conference had
never existed, as though no power but Eng
land had interests at stake in Egypt. Such
a high-handed course Of procedure, they
say, could only be justified by an intention
on the part of England to i'm.
mediately assume protectorate over Egypt,
and if that be the intention of Mr.. Gladstone,
common honesty should prompt him to an
nounce it. The radical papers in the mean
time have fallen upon Gen. Gordon's recent
dispatches from Khartoum, and are explod-
ing what they call their incongruities and
absurdities The conclusion that they arrive
at is that Gordon is insane, and they demand
that his commission as governor Of the
SOudan be revoked.

Gordon Gains Two Victories.

CAIRO, Sept. ga messenger from Gen.
Gordon has arrived at Dongola with the in
formation that Gordon had two severe battles
with the rebels who were besetting Khartoum,
in both of which the rebels sustained dis
astrous defeat In the last battle, when il
became apparent that the rebels were giving
way, Gordon sailed out, and so vigorous was
his attack on the enemy that the latter were
compelled to raise the siege Of Khartoum and
retreat to the interior of the country. The
messenger says the rebels lost heavily, while
Gordon's loss was very small, owing to the
precision of the latter's artillery and infantry
fire, and the fact that but little hand 20 hand
fighting took place.

THE WHOLE STORY
Of Nr. Blaine's Marriage, no Told
by Himself.


NRw YoRK, Sept. 2s.-Hon. W. W. Phelps
Augusta, Me-, Sept, 8, in which Mr.,
substantially as follows: He got ac
quainted with the lady whom he afterward
married at Georgetown, KY, in 1S4s, ..and
six months Of courtship resulted In an en-
gagement, Mr.. B. being but 1s. The young
people were not prepared to marry at that
time and kept their engagement secret. Ir
the spring of 1850, while Mr.. Blaine wal
making plans to leave Kentucky and
establish himself elsewhere, he received
word of his fathers death 1t being doubtful
If he could return to Kentucky, he determined
to bind Miss Stanswood to himself by the
strongest ties possible, and accordingly, or
June 80, 1850, in the presence of a few trusted
friends, the two were married by ceremony
that Mr.. Blaine supposed was q
proper and legal 'one,. He then went to
Maine to attend his fathers funeral, and,
upon solicitation of his mother, concluded
not to carry out his intention Of changing
his business, and cons sequently returned tc
Kentucky. During the ensuing winter
Mr.. Blaine became fearful that
the marriage ceremony between him.
self and wife was not in proper form In
Kentucky, and upon consultation with law.
yers his misgivings were confirmed. He
therefore, although himself and wife con
sidered the form Of marriage perfectly
sacred and binding, determined to put th.
matter beyond a doubt by chra
mony that would he absolutely
legal In carrying out this purpose he took
his wife to Pittsburg, where in March, 1851.
the marriage was re-solemnized with all the
forms of law. Mr.. Blaine says that at the
age of 81 he does not defend the wisdom or
prudence of secret marriage, but its honor
and purity were inviolate and it brought
him oompanionship which has been the
chief happiness to this hour, and crowned
him with whatever Of success ne has at
tanned in this life
Mr.. Blaine further says his eldest child
was born at Augusta, Me-, June IS, 1851,
and died in its mothers arms three years
later and adds: "His ashes repose in the
cemetery of his native city, beneath stone
which recorded his name and the limits of his
innocent life. That stone that had stood for
almost an entire generation, has been de-
faced by brutal and sacrilegious hands"

BUFFALO, N. Y, Sept. 2s.-Ellen Bone

hours after, dead. Under the bed was the
