POOR PEOPLES CHANCES.

Some years ago city missionary
was crossing one Of the parks IN New
York on the Sabbath day and said to .
lad, what are you doing here, break
ing the Lords day? You ought to be
at Church and worshipping God instead
OF breaking the Sabbath in this way"
The poor lad in his rags looked up at
the city missionary and said: ''Oh, sir,
It's very easy for you to talk that way,
but God knows that we poor chaps
amt got no chance"
The sentiment seems to be growing
that in the United States the time has
arrived when Tho poor chaps don't
have no chance"
There is some truth in it. The poor
are not shut out from making liveli-
hood, but the gulf between riches and
poverty continually grows more Diff
cult to cross. As the country becomes
densely populated keen business com.
petition decreases the chances for accu-
mulating wealth by ordinary business
methods.
But the same conditions vastly i'm
prove the chances for great success to
those who can strike out in new paths,
can furnish something to the world that
others cannot.
True merit, in commodity or ability,
will win easily and with grand results
in this country, if the masses can be
induced to recognize it. This recogni-
ton can only be accomplished by what
are sometimes sneerngly alluded to as
advertising methods.
What a marvellous success has at
tended the thorough introduction to
the world of the merits Of that wonder
full remedy for kidney disease-War-
ner's Safe Cure. Hon. II. II. Warner
first came to know of it's curative power
by being restored to health from what
the doctors pronounced fatal kidney
trouble. He concluded the world ought
to know of it and in the ten years since
he began it's manufacture he has spent
millions of dollars in advertising the
Safe Cure.
His methods have been ingenious,
sometimes, perhaps, open to criticism.
but they had purpose, which has been
accomplished.
But mark! he never would have Sc
cured four fold return of the vast
sums thus expended if the real merit of
the remedy had not been fully proven
to the millions Of people reached by his
advertisements.
Ten years of increasing success Of
Warmers Safe Cure is due, first, to in
telligent and pleasing advertising, by
which the people were made acquainted
with the remedy. Second, to tie true
worth of the remedy, proved by actual
experience, showing it to be THE ONLY
SPECIFIC for kidney disease, and all dis
eases growing out of kidney derange-
ments.
Mr. Warner has something the peo-
pie want, tells them so, then proves it to
their satisfaction-success follows as q
matter of course.

Edward Curley Staggers Bleeding
Into LYnch's Saloon.

Sergeant Carroll. of ths First precinct,
was calmly walking up Newark avenue
last night at about half-past seven O'Clock
when two boys ran up to him.
Say dere, cop, dere's a bloke wat has
his troat cut on Henderson street" said
one of them.
The sergeant asked what the boy meant
and was informed that the wounded man
was in Lynch's wholesale liquor store.
He fastened there and found Edward
Curley, of No. $40 Henderson street, lying
on the floor. Blood was flowing from
several wounds, and the man was faint
from exhaustion,
SERIOUS WOUNDS.
Sergeant Carroll at once sent for the
ambulance and DR.. Gray. The ambu-
lance was the first to arrive, and the sur
geon, after superficial examination, said
the back of his neck had been cut to the
vertebraH; that another cash had been
made beneath the ear, and that third
cut had severed large portion of one ear.
Curley was too weak TO say anything.
He was taken to the City Hospital as soon
as possible, where, late last night, his
condition was considered critical
A SUSPECT AT THE STATION.
While this was being done Sergeant
Carroll made Investigations Three boys
told him they had seen an Italian run
down Railroad avenue and they and O.
couple of policemen went i'll search of
him. While they were looking through
the Italian haunts IN Italian in his shirt
sleeves entered the station house to make
q complaint against some one. Before he
could do so boy told Roundsman Coward
that the Italian was the man who did the
stabbing.
Coward held him and later Sergeant
Carroll and the three boys came in The
Italian was placed before all three boys
and they positively identified him as the
man they had seen running away from
Lynch. Their names are James Byrnes,
John McSheehan and John McCarty
The police could not learn where the
cutting took place or what caused it. AT
Lynchfs it was said that the first that was
known of it there was when Curley ran
into the place bleeding 'om his wounds,
and fell to the floor. The police believe
that the cutting was the result of a
drunken fight.

Mrs. Jones Says He Is Not to Blame for
Her Escape.
Mrs. Anne Jones, who is in the Hudson
County Jail on chat ge of completely in
the robbery of Fenton in her house in this
city, was sitting quietly behind the bars
last night, reading copy of THE JERSEY
CITY NEWS, when called on her to ask
why Captain Christopher p Smith had
allowed her to leave this city when he had
given Justice Stilsing verbal assurance
that he would be responsible for her APP
pearance in court when wanted.
Captain Smith had nothing to do with
the matter" she replied. "He has been
lied about by the papers,"
She then read with a sneering accent
from THE JERSEY CITY NEWS the para
graph that referred to her pretentious
appearance in silks and jewelry when
arrested in New York, and added that q
lady was lady in spite of her dress.
Who are You, anyway" she asked,
sharply
When disclosed my identity, she re-
torted acridly:-"I don't want to talk to
newspaper men. | thought you were a
lawyer. Captain Smith had nothing to
do with my disappearance"
She then quietly resumed her reading,
and refused to have anything further to
say.
