Encyclopedias.

Comparatively few people know how to
value an encyclopaedia until after they have
used one. 1t is more than dictionary. Ii
not only gives you in short space the infor-
nation you want, but its information comes
from the highest authority-it is reliable to
date. But the Britannica does more. 1t
gives the ordinary reader a broad and &C
curate survey of the whole field of knowl-
edge in all departments of thought and ac-
tion. Each subject is treated by special
list. 1t is the choice fruit of many able
minds. 1t is history, geography, literature.
science, art, religion, manufacturing. inven-
ton, and in a word, picture of actual civ
iliZatiOn. 1t takes the place of many books,
and in the end is actually the cheapest form
of valuable library. Deny yourself and
family other things, and buy a good ency-
clOpedia. The Britannica is the best.

Saturday, Oct. 9.

There are two facts
which 60 far to proving
the value of an invention
or the advantage of an
innovation; the one is
imitation and the other is
opposition. Every good
thing brings a host of fol-
lowers-people who have
no idea of their own, nor
a ghost of one, but who
run after every one who
has, and then claim the
work as their own. The
other class of people are
those who content them
selves with making faces
at the improver, and
denying everything that
everyone else does, and
saying, 81 told you so," if
anything goes wrong.
We've got plenty Of
the latter class among US
here. For instance, we
found child's corduroy
suits selling mere at five
or six dollars each, or
more, and as is usual with
us, cut the price to Three
Fifty, whereupon our imi-
tating friends Immediately
shouted, I'VE sell ours at
three !" a thing nobody
believed, of course, or,
believing, so clearly saw
the cause of, that the pre-
tended cut only raised a
general laugh; but there
was never a thought Of
a drop in price, mind you,
till we opened the ball.
So, too, with lots of
other things; Working
Pants, for instance,
brought to most people a
dollar and a half for any
thing good we promptly
reduced the price to One
Dollar, selling. moreover,
a better article for the
money than most stores
in Straightforward buy
at that figure. Did you
see the consequence of
our reduction ? 1t came
in the shape of solemn
warning not to buy our
goods because they were
sure to rip or go to pieces
in the first rain, or blow
up or some other silly
thing, repeated from day
to day ad nauseum. But
the real bona hde conse-
quence of that sort Of
thing was, that interested
parties saw we were the
cause of all this uneasi-
ness, and figuring out
that we were the cause of
it, gave us their trade,
and our sales of Working
Pants doubled in a bit
over two weeks.
It's so, all along the
line. Bright, active and
vigorous business dealing,
coupled with plenty of
goods at the>right prices,
have made us our place
among Springfield mer-
chants.

THE MEXICAN REVOLUTION.
Insurgents Capture a Town-Troops
 Ordered to the Scene.

NEUvo LAREDO Mexico, July F, 1886.-That serious trouble is apprehended by the general government is evinced by the fact that force of three hundred and fifty infantry arrived here to-day by special train from Monterey, and were immediately dispatched down the Rio Grande to the scene of insurrection, which IS near the city of Mier, about one hundred and twenty miles due south of this city, and almost opposite the American town of Roma, on the east bank of the Rio Grande. This de- tachment of infantry, it is stated, will be fol- lowed by others until the government has an ample force to protect it's property and sum- marily quell any revolutionary movement that may be attempted.
 It is a well established fact that for the past year large quantities of arms, consisting chiefly Gf Winchester rifles, have been snug gled into the State of Tamaulipas both above and below Brownsville, which have been dis trlbuted among the opponents of the Daiz government The active and summary efforts of the Mexican government to suppress snug gllng on the Rio Grande border has largely tended to fan this lawless element into active revolution, for which they have been secretly organizing for the past year and are we'll armed and equipped to offer stout resistance.
 The startling report reached here this even- ing that the revolutionists last night had cap- tured the town of Guerreo, near the mouth of the Rio Salado river, about seventy-ive miles south of this city and fifty miles north of Mier, the principal seat of trouble, and were putting It III state of defence. Upon the heels of this intelligence comes the report that large body of revolutionists have appeared about fifty miles above this city in the State of Oueve Leon, and are moving rapidly and con- stantly receiving accessions.
 The garrison of this city has been strength ened by volunteer force armed with Winches- ter rifles, and the Custom House and all other government buildings are strongly guarded and should the reyolutionists move upon the city and attempt it's capture they will meet with determined resistance. With it's pres ent railway and telegraph facilities it is thought the general government will make short work of this incipient revolution.

THE MEXICAN WAR.
THE PENSION BILL FOR RELIEF
 HAS PASSED.
Passage of the House Mexican Pen
 sion Bill by the Senate.

The House bill granting pensions to the sol diers and sailors of the Mexican war having been reached on the Senate calendar, an ob lection was made by MT. Teller, but Con an appeal to him by MT. Wilson, of Iowa, and os a statement by MT. Harris that no Democratic senator would consume any time in discussing the bill) was withdrawn.
 The bill was then considered and passed, with an amendment Creported by the Commit tee on PensiOns).
 The bill as passed directs the Secretary of the Interior to place on the pension roll the names of the surviving officers and enlisted men (including marines, militia and volun- teers) who, being duly enlisted, actually served sixty days with the army or navy of the United States in Mexico or on the coasts on frontier thereof or en route thereto, in the war with that nation, or who were actually en- gagged in a battle in said war and were honor ably discharged, and their surviving widows, provided that such widows have not remarr1ed, and provided that every such officer, enlisted man or widow who is or may become slxty-tWo years of age or who is or may become subject to any disability or dependency equivalent to some cause recognized by the Pension laws as a sufficient reason for the allowance of pension, shall be entitled to the benefits of the act (except where such disability or depend ency was incurred in aiding or abetting the late rebellion). The pensions are to be $S & month, payable only after the passage of the act. The law is not to apply to persons al ready receiving pensions at or over the rate; and where persons (entitled under this law) are already receiving pensions less than $8 a month the pension shall only be for the differ ence up te $S.

THE CONNECTS SURRENDER.
Brought to Submission by Thirst and
 Starvation.

ATLANTA, .Ga., July 15 1886-The trouble among the convicts in the Dude coal mines at Cole City, Ga, ended by the surrender of the mutineers and their return to work. Two days of thirst and starvation brought them around. The following despatch, just received by Governor McDaniel from the principle keeper of the Penitentiary, explains the pre- sent situation:-
 Mutiny over. Am taking the convicts out of the stockade as fast as irons can be put on. All the leaders are out but one who says he will not go out alive. But have no fears of him. they all coming out now as called. Will be in Atlanta in the morning. Glad did not have to kill any.
 This ends one of the most remarkable s'strikes' on record and what might have been the cause of serious difficulty and loss of life By prudent management and cool judgment all trouble has been averted.

GAfting His Ride Free.

Some of the funniest scenes about Washington are found in the street cars an there is no better place in which to study human nature. All classes ride in them from the Cabinet Minister to tho messenger in the department, and l have had as my companions at one time General of the Army, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, a letter carrier, a drcssmaker and Sam Randall. I ride down town every morning in five cent Herdic and I often have the chief of great Government Bureau as my seat mate. He is man we'll known through out the country, and receives salary of $5OOO year. I have noticed that he always takes his scat nearest the fare box and that he buys a package of six tickets for a quarter when he sits down. He takes pains to offer to pass up all the fares and puts them into the box for his fellow passengers. Whenever nickel is given him he changes it into his pock- ct and puts into the box one of his tick cts, so that when he has received five nickels he is one ticket ahead. He thus gets his ride frec.- Washington, Letter.

LADIES DEPARTMENT.
Their Start In Life.

The original occupations of prominent actresses have been curious and diverse, says the New York World. Maud Gran ger, who was as fond of rolling up her pretty eyes as Mary Anderson now is, earned her first money by going out by the day as sewing woman. Jenny Lind used to help her mother to keep board- ing house in Sweden. Clara Louise Kel- logg's mother used to give Spiritualistic seances to raise the money to train her daughters voice. Sarah Bernhardt made buttonholes for little, unfashon- able dressmaker in Paris. Rhea was a harum-scarum French holden of IA when she went on the stage in the provinces, and was continually in disgrace and down for fines because of her lively be- havior at rehearsals. There was a stuffed tiger used in the play, French farrago of oriental impossibilities, and one day at the rehearsal she stole behind the leading gentleman with the tiger in her arms and clapped it on his back in the midst of his most impassioned love scene. He was so startled he tainted, and on the books of the Lyons theatre is still to be seen this entry under the head of 'fines:" ''Mille. Rhea, for frightening NJ. Blank with tiger, francs.
