BRITISH GOLD IN AMERICA.
Tens of Millions Invested in BrcwCrlcs.

The extent to which the gold of England is
being invested in America is hardly realized
by our people Investments are principally in
mines and breweres, although other paying
enterprises find ready market in London
When the celebrated Guinness's brewery in
Dublin was capitalized, and Barring Bros
offered the shares for sale. their Offices were
fairly mobbed by anxious investors. aud appli
cation blanks sold at 50 premium. A capital
of S30000,O00 was called for, aud when tho
books closed over $1Q0,000000 had been sub
scribed. Bass, Alsopp, aud other leading Eng.
lish brewers followed suit, and all the stock
was subscribed before ii was listed. Then Eug.
lsh capitalists turned their attention to
America, aud by consulting our internal
revenue reports found we were rapidly becom-
ing Nation of beer drinkers. The consumption
of beer in the United States had increased from
100000 barrels in 1863 To 10000 900 barrels
in 1888; being an average of over 1,0O0,00O
barrels per year As the business and the in
crease had been principally in the hands of
steady going, old fashioned Germans, English
men conceived the idea that America was q
good field for beer harvesting, and the Causen
aud Flanagan and Nay scheme-the New York
Brcwcries Co--was organized and placed upon
the London market The ordinary shares were
largely ovor-subscribed, and the preference
shares fully subscribed with small margin.
This success was tho signal for rush to
America for options upon brewercs, and all
sorts of fancy prices were offered. The holders
OF the options, however, generally failed to dis
pose of their goods, as there came lull in the
brewery craze, and the Brtishers declined to
pay fancy prices.
Last Spring the brewery boom was revived,
and the Newark breweres followed by num-
Der of Western brcwcries, were bought sue
cessivey, and are now practically under the
management of Englisbmen; though. in most
cases, the previous owners are stock holders, and
continue to run the business.
Under the American management tho beer
had dcgeneratod until the taste of hop was u
thing of the past. The Thames water cannot
be had this side of the ocean, to he sure, but
the Englishmen might increase the business
OF their breweries by having at least load of
hops TO drive through them occasionally.
Here is list of English brewing companies
with the names of the American companies of
which they are composed aud their capitaliza

Will some one who knows advise
us of the intention of railroad baggage
checks for trunks? We have never
been able yet to ascertain the motive
or advantage of checks. One thing
we do know: 1t is an excellent plan
to get trunks snapped and mixed up.
We were forcibly reminded of the
impractlbility Of this check business
on last Thursday. Miss Mollie Rush,
Miss Edna Montgomery and our little
daughter, Eunice, all came in on the
same train. We called a darby to
whom we gave our little daughter S
check for her trunk. He was some
time in claiming the trunk and when
he came to the house he had Miss.
Montgomery trunk. When we sent
him back to make the exchange the
exchange did not answer as the check
did not correspond with the check
held by our little daughter. Miss
Mollie Rush held the check fol
Eunice's trunk. Now where is the
blame? Some carelessness some where
We are informed by our little daugh

An Advertisement Of New Orleans.


New '!lctia ! I'''>
The improvement made in the as
scsslncnt Of New Orleans tins year Is
now going the rounds Of the press,
Northern, Southern and Western,
and has been the subject Of numerous
editorial comments. Ii J. needless t.
say that these comments have ail
leon Of the most favorable character.
Tie papers everywhere accept 1t as
evidence that New Orleans l. pros

it has a confidence in its future. Here
has been It's weakness in the past.
The two accusations which have been
most repeatedly and iniuriousIv hint
ell at this city have been that 1t was
stagnant, or if advancing, gong ahead
at a tortoise pace; and that Its people
did not have the same public spirit
the same confidence in their town,
the same belief in its future growth
as those Of the boomer cities.
No stronger proof to the contrary
couh have been adduced than an ad-
dition in single year OF SlO,5OO,OcO
to the assessment Of the city. There
/ is something practical about it; some
thing that every one can understand
and appreciate. It Is noticed that
"the boomers" dead mainly in wind

lands double in value every week OF

Money will buy a great many
things, but It will not buy what
makes a gentleman. If you have
money you can go to a store and buy
clothes. But hat, coat and boots do
not make a gentleman. They make
a fop, and sometimes come near
making fool. Money will buy dogs
and horses, but how many dogs and
horses do you think it will take to
make a gentleman? Let no boy
therefore think he is to be made n
gentleman by the clothes he wears,
the horse he ,ides, the stick he car
ries, the dog that trots after him, the
house that he lives in, or the money
he spends. Not one of all these
things do it, and yet every boy may
DE a gentleman. But how? BY be-
ing true, manly and honorable; keep
ing himself neat and respectabel; by
being civil and courteaus; 10y doing
the best he knows how. And finally
above, all, fearing God and keeping
his commandments.-Ey.

spending five minutes at his house
we started out for Mt. Lebanon,
passing several hacks and wagons
loaded with live freight, we landed at
the chapel about dark to find the
house nearly filed and people still
coming. After paying the entrance
fee of ten cents at the door, we cast
about for our little daughter, and at
last succeeded in seeing her on the
front seat, to which place We went
and remained during the concert of

teresting. The opening chorus by
the school was very good.
