Here it appears that brooklyn has gained
A. per cent. Jersey City almost 36 per cent,
lIobokcn over 80 per cent, YonkrrS 60 per
cent, and Long Island City over ~ per cent, so
that unless the growth of this whole body Of
population has been IN much greater ratio than
il was III the previous decade, the population
of New York CITY must have increased com
paiativcly little. II may be we'll to notice that
had the increase in the entire population about
New Ork Bay been exactly as great aS it was
in the previous decade, namely 1873 per cent
the gam in this city would have been only
25sJi more than the census reported To
suppose materially greater increase in the alb
scnce Of conclusive evidence would be unrca-
,onablc, 80 that the figures appear to make
il improbable that the census was in error bv
more than about 5000 persons. But even
that presumption might be removed if the in
crease in minor suburban towns should be ac-
curately a.certalned.
IL appears 10 lie the fact that this city has
grown comparatively little because other ada
cent cities and country towns have absorbed
large part OF its population. \ great army
of people now do business in New Aork, for
whom the Bridge and the elevated railroads
have opened opportunity - find more com
Portable homes IN Hrool(lyn. or in Westminster
County. or who have found life easier OF m re
economical in IIobr,cn or Jersey Ciry. or in
the country villages in Ncw-JcrSoy. The true
cause of Ncw-Y0rll's comparatively slow in
crease is the extravaganza and corruption of its
city government. which renders this city less
desirable a place OF residence than it ought
to be. But if the Mayors count were entirely
accurate, the aggregate population Of all the
cities above enumerated would have increased
during the last decade s27. 900. or more than

that ~ 200 600 is IA large sum; rightly u>ed

Nicholas is the article Through a
Detective Camera" written by Mr..
Black the well.known amateur, and
illustrated with characteristic bits of
child life; the street scenes are as
perfect as insects in amber the hockey
pokey ice-cream man is a genre picture
complete, and his italian baby is a
history of down-trodden race in
miniature. Frederic Villiers, the
famous English war-correspondent,
tells of his narrow escape from asphy-
xia, because of Copper Braizer I"
containing crude charcoal used in
warming an inn room at a Servian
hotel. Mr.. Villier's forcible and pecu-
liar drawings fully illustrate his text.
Other features are short illustrated
life of Edward the Sixth; a toothsome
poem by James Whitcomb Riley !;
bright story by J. o. Davidson, tell
ing how q Yankee with rifle proved
himself match for CHILEAN torpedo
boat; clever poem designed to teach
the hollowness of kings and queens

lures, clever bits in verse, well-sus-
tanned departmental attractions, and
all the serials. The man who can not
find interesting reading in this num-
Der should consult his physician.

GOOD THINGS TO EAT.

MR.. J. S. TRAMMELL begs leave to
inform the citizens ofBERKELEY, JEFFER-
SON AND MORGAN counties, that he has
again opened up business at the old Wis
ner Stand, next door to Lutheran Church
with an entire NEW STOCK OF FINE GRO
CERES which he has purchased in NEW
YORK for CASH. and which he is now
offering at VERY ATTRACTIVE PRICES for
STRICTLY SPOT CASH. or in exchange for
country produce. 1t is a well-known
fact that merchants who give credit al
ways count on large percentage of bad
debts, and figure their prices so as to
leave profit over and above the sum
they calculate to lose in this way. What
does this mean to the man who pays his
bills and meets his obligations 1t means
that he is compelled to pay 10, Is, and
even 90 per cent more than fair price
for the article he purchases in other
words he not only pays his own bills, but
indirectly pays the bills of every bad
debtor dealing with the merchant who
does business on a credit basis. Our motto
is GOOD HONEST SERVICE, Low PRICES, 16
