For 0ut-Of- Flown Customers.

loopen letters, count the contents, pick
out goods, pack them, and send the bill, to
many minds are simple things, which any
person or any house can do.
But to us, the ideal filling of mail orders
IS very different process requiring ability
OF high and unusual order
The actor who mechanically repeats his
words, without placing himself completely
IN the part he assumes, never succeeds So
with the mail-order selector He is failure
unless, as some one has said, he has the in
sight, the power to look behind ink and
paper, and catch the living person to be
served; ability to make mental photo
graph of the writer, and read between the
lines the thought that created the words
Viewed in this light, the satisfactory
filling of mail orders is Special business,
like any other aVocation, requiring Special
experience and Special people,
1t is for this reason that many large
houses, giving general satisfaction to city
customers, fail utterly when they come to
serving trade through the mails, They and
their employees lack the skill and training.
The system upon which our work is
done is second to none in the country,
combining as it does the best points in the
leading methods now in vogue. We believe
we possess in an eminent degree the three
things necessary to the best serving of out
ot-tOWn customers: 1, Goods and Prices
unexcelled; 2, Long experience and a nearly
perfect system; 3, A staff of people to do

COL. PRoCToR's RECORD.
A Bread Riot at st. bloomsbury, vt.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In your issue
of the 18th inst. you give what claims to be the
war record of Secretary Proctor, which is a
little off" He was Quartermaster of the Sd
VI. while we were camped in Vermont, and
afterwards Lieutenant, Colonel of the 9th Vt,
from which he was appointed Colonel of the
18th VT, and was with Gen. Stannard at Get
tysburg, and helped to roll up the flank of
Pickett when he made his famous charge
That item calls to my mind an incident
which transpired while III camp at ST. Johns
bury early in the Summer of 1861 We were
furnished with rations of soft bread from the
bakery in town, which bread was packed, while
warm, in large baskets, and when sent to camp
much of it, of course, would be sour and hardly
fiji to eat We had complained of it for some
time without effect. Finally, one day when it
came to US pretty bad, our Captain wv. G..
Veazey) afterward Colonel Of the 10Th VT. or
dered the company (A) to fall in each with
his loaf of bread and he marched us to the
Quartermaster's quarters, with orders for each
man to lay his loaf on the bread shelf as we
marched past. All went well for the first few
files, but those in the rear rank began to toss,
and from tossing they begun throwing, and the
bread flew quite lively for while, and | war
rant that Col. Proctor did as much lodging
that day as he did when rolling up Pickett's
flank later in the war But we had good bread
thereafter. | would like to ask the Colonel if
he has forgotten " the bread riot" at st. Johns
bury.-L. A. PIERCE Sergeant, Co. A, Sd Vt,

Chlckamaupa battle-ground

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: I want to saw
few words to the old comrades who took part
in the late dispute in this part of the South.
Comrade Taggart and myself visited the Chick
amauga battlefield on the 25th anniversary of
that desperate contest, and spent the day look
ing over the ground where our brigade repulsed
three charges made by LoHgstreet on the 10Th.
1t is very surprising how little change has been
made since then in the field. Anyone who was
there would at once recognize the spot where
he fought. We secured a few relics, ate a
melon, some peaches and persmmons grown ON
the ground, and came home, thankful that we
were not among the unfortunate ones who gave
their all for our country in that struggles,

An Expert,s mistake.

Mr.. S. Grant, of Grant Bros, the rail-
road contractors, who did most of the
work on the California Southern, and
who are now employed on the approaches
to the Atlantic and Pacific bridge over
the Colorado, was in town yesterday
He says that the grading is nearly
finished on both sides of the river, after
which his labors will be over, as the
company itself are doing the bricklaying
and erecting the bridge. When asked
when the new structure would be fin
ished, Mr.. Grant said that the question
was hard one to answer, for
although it was hoped to have it
ready for the 1st of June unexpected
complications have arisen. The expert
employed by the Atlantic and Pacific
furnished the information of soundings,
etc., on which the contract was let for
the bridge building. 1t was found, how
ever, the other day that the point at
which the expert had given bedrock was
only a nest of boulders, and that a
depth of about sixty feet more was neces-
sary. The contractor therefore demands
new agreement, to which arrangement,
it is understood, the company is 10th
to comply, so matters are in stdtu quo
pending a settlement of the difficulty.

The Gaming Circus.

During the amusement vacation last
winter, the two largest and most import
ant itinerary exhibitions of America-we
may say of the worldly a bold and
polite move of their respective manage
ments, effected a consolidation that in
point of magnitude and in extent and
diversity of attractive features never has
had a parallel. This season, conse-
quently, the plants of the Sells Brothers
and S. II. Barrett are on the road ex-
hibiting in vast and unprecedented
union, and causing most, if not all, con-
temporsneous travelling shows to stand
appalled, at this new and formidable Coli
ath of the equestrian, geological and hip
podromatic world. The formidable coal
ition is to exhibit here on Thursday,

Judge Hutton was Right.

The decision which Judge Hutton rem
dered on February 1st in the case Of
Haskell vs.. Doty, and against which an
appeal was taken to the Supreme Court,
has been confirmed by that body. 1t
will be remembered that Charles Has
kell, real estate agent, contracted with
Jas. E. Doty to purchase property in
Pasadena. A dispute arose, and it is
claimed that Haskell refused to pay his
note, at the same time, it is alleged, TAX
ing the contract away from Doty. Has
kell afterwards sued Doty, claiming some
$l2 900 damages, and after due trial
Judge Hutton gave him judgment for
$500, which was paid, on the property,
but refused to grant him a new trial.
Haskell appealed, with the result as
given above.

The Creation.

There are in this city great many
singers, male and female, who, if given
the opportunity, could easily take part
in an ambitious performance with credit
and profit. The Philharmonic Society
of this city have just received the scores
of Haydn's beautiful choral master
piece, the oratorio of the Creation,
which they propose to give at their fourth
concert about the latter part of May. The
best soloists obtainable have already
been engaged for the leading roles, but
in order to give the chorus parts with the
grandeur and massiveness which the
greatness of this beautiful semi-relig-
ious work demands, the Philhar-
monic Society invites all sing
ers in the city to participate, free
of charge to themselves, without other
condition than that the practicings be
faithfully attended in the rehearsals of
the society, which are held each Friday
evening at the hall of the society, 2I2
South Spring street, in the rear of Gard
ner's music store. Auxiliary members
for the Creation can introduce them
selves to the secretary or musical di-
rector at rehearsals, and will be assigned
chairs. 1t is urgently requested that
such singers as wish to join the chorus,
where they will receive the incalculable
benefit of several months of choral train
ing with the members of this sterling 80
ciety, will make their applications i'm
mediately, as the chorus must neces-
sarily be closed in a short time, in order
to present finished work at the concert.
The Creation is so we'll known, having
been given in all the large cities of the
world, that it is needless to say more
than that it is one of the grandest musi-
cal compositions of all ages.

THE CITY GOVERNMENT.
Branches That Are to Meet Ts
Day.

Branches That Are to Meet To-
Day.
This morning at 10 O'Clock the Board
of Health will meet, and will probably
decide upon the Health Officer and other
appointments awarded to it by the new
Charter. So far as known, there has not
been much of fight for the position, al
though the names of DR.. M. Hazen, DR..
MCGOWAN and DIR. Walter Lindley have
been mentioned in connection with the
matter.
The Council will meet also at 10 O'Clock
this morning, when it is expected that it
will get to work in real earnest. Mayor
Hazard will probably send in the names
of those whom he desires to be con-
firmed for positions allowed to be filled
by him under the new charter. These
are the Superintendent of Buildings, the
Water Overseer, the Sealer of Weights
and Measures, and five directors of the
Public Library. The charter says that
these "shall be chosen from the citizens
at large, male or female, without regard
to their political opinion, but with refer
ence to their fitness for said office, and
not more than one member of the City
Council shall be at any one time a mem
bsr of said Board"
One matter of discussion in the Coun-
Gil will probably be the pro-
visions of the new Charter for the
prosecution of street work. The
Council will have to decide whether
it will commence work under the
new Charter or under the Vrooman act.
In either case the matter is likely to be
carried into the courts, to determine
which is the law in force here.
At 2 80 this afternoon the Police Com
mission will meet and it is probable that
at that time the names of those who are
to act on the police force will be an
nounced. Yesterday the question which
interested many of the citizens was as to
who will be the next Captain and other
commanding officers of the force. 1t
was the general impression that Chief
Burns would be allowed to name the one
he wants for Captain, although it was
rumored that trade had been made
which, affected the question. 1t is said
that no one would be chosen who has
ever occupied that position befo re, and
that the name, when announced, will be
a surprise.
