Affidavits were read yesterday in Judge
Van Fleets Court, made by Messrs. T. l..
Acock and Ed. Treganza, in the contempt
of Court charges against them. Each as
serted that he meant no contempt in the

alleged that Under Sheriff Coons and others
had misrepresented his acts willfully.
Neither of the defendants were present.

Treganza out of the city. The Court did
not seem to be particularly impressed with
this feature OF the statement. Finally the

The natural Gas Project.

At various times in the past two or three
years there have been attempts made to
get citizens interested in a proposition to
prospect for gas-welis in the vicinity of
this city. The movement at last appears
to have taken shape. Parties have already
subscribed for about fifty shares, at 800

proposed to sell for the purpose of meeting
the expense of boring a well. The esti-

her unique and, in the best sense of the
word. q surprising actress. "She has," says
the same able critic, that inward compre-

artists" The Detroit Free Press classes her
with those actresses whose charm is &C.

telautograph is one of these and Es-

eGray's device transmits writing per-
fectly, and properly applied would
take the place of the telephone, hav-
ing the additional advantage of greater
secrecy. The other device is not SO
well known. The system has been in
operation between Washington and
New York for some time, using one Of
the Postal Telegraph Company's
wires. It's use on short circuits was
proven practicable some time ago, but
kept secret. Robbed of technicaliMes,
the system is simply one by which a

made to transmit currents Of various

HOW TO SELL GOODS.
An Ability to Size Up Your Customer the
First Essential.

First Essential.
.'How to sell goods?'' repeated New
York merchant after a reporter. SIT
depends upon the man. That is the
whole secret. Like the old parody on
Victor Hugo, if you want to be good
salesman you must educate your grand
mother Agood salesman is born, not
made. In the first place you must be
liable to size up your purchaser all
through. If you tell a racy story to a
Achurch deacon, or if you offer a pro-
hibitionist candidate for justice drink
sout of your private bottle, or if you
try to get the village freethinker to
direct you to prayer meeting you will
make an expensive mistake You
must, like St. Paul, be all things to all
men, and, more than that, the right
things to the right men. You can't
sell to two men in the same way. You
must attack each man differently. You
must catch a man when he is not busy
and when he is not tired. When YOU
do go for man. go for him horse, foot
and dragons. Don't give him chance
to get away from you, but hold on to
him until you land him. You have got
to know your own goods like you know
your prayers to do this, and you have
got to know what your competitors are
doing, too. You must be prepared for
every possible reception and for every
possible and impossible objection, and
suddenly you find you have sold big
bill, and you have to go over the thing
slowly afterward to find out how you
did i'm. Y. Star.
