HOW They Did II.

If any of our readers are inclined to
doubt whether newspaper advertis-
ing can be made to pay we would
point to The success achieved by the
manufaci ureTs of the strong ga horse
blankets.
A few years ago many horse blank
ct manufacturers reduced the quality
OF their goods to such an extent that
1t was almost impossible for a horse
owner TO tell when he bought horse
blanket whether it was strong or not.
Many of our readers have doubtless,
i'll the past, purchased such blankets
and found to their great disgust that
they would wear out in few weeks.
The ga horse blanket manufacture
ers believed that people did not want
to be fooled and that owners of horses
would buy strong horse blankets if
they knew how to tell the difference
between a strong blanket and weak
one. Many years ago they decided to
make their horse blankets unusually
strong and give them the name ga
Horse Blankets, so that when they ad.
vertised these goods in the news
papers owners of horses would know
what to ask for. They sew the ga
trade mark ON the inside of each
blanket, and no blanket is genuine
without this trade mark. The ga
trade mark is guar antee that the
horse blanket is strong and will stand
rough usage.
The manufacturers OF ga horse
blankets have found honesty to be the
best policy Their blankets are known
over the entire United States as well
as they are known To our uWn readers
for they are advertised everywhere.
Newspaper advertising, and the stand
they have taken to make horse blank
cts that will wear well. have made
the manufacturers of ga horse blank
cts the largest makers of these
goods in the world. They own their
own mills, have the yery latest labor
saving machinery, and make their
blankets f. n the raw stock to the
finished state, and at prices to suit
everybody.

1t seems passing strange, and Is GER
tainly no credit to detective skill, that
all attempts should thus far have
failed to identify the fiend who for
three or more years past had been al
lowed to pursue his brutal persecu-
ton of poor Jessie White, of Joliet.
Over four hundred Of his letters are in
existence, all written in the same
hand, sometimes clumsily disguised
and at other times in natural flow
ing hand-letters sent through the
postotlice. letters showed under door
sills, flung into open windows or drop
ped into private letter-boXes, and yet
no trace of the author, though care
full ga riue has been kept up on him
for three years. He pretended to be
in love with his victim and to have
been scorned or i'll treated by her. Is
it possible she or her immediate
friends had no strong supicion at least
of his identity? Now that his villainy
has eliminated in such an awful
tragedy, it certainly will be disgrace
full to the last pretense of detective
skill if the vile brute is not tracked to
his den.

Robert G. Schenck, who a genera
ago was a power in Ohio politics and
prominent among Republican leaders
in the house at Washington: who
later made somewhat variegated
record as general in the war OF the
rebellion; and closed his political ca
reer as minister to England, died at
his home in Washington on Sunday
morning in the Slst year of his age.
As a member Of the house he was
noted as the best tlye-minute debater
even known in that body. The com
pactness and clearness of statement,
the facts and arguments be could
marhal in that brief time, were con-
slant surprise and delight to the
house. q Socially he was kind, gentel,
and witty, and in public places al
ways had crowd around him.

In spite of all the buster about the
passage of law by congress to secure
to the negro of the South his rights, it
is now conceded, says the Washington
Inter Ocean correspondent, that nc
federal election law will be passed by
this congress. The Lodge bill is dead
from its own weight. "Mr. Payson, y
says the L. o. letter, thinks the time
has come when no election law is nee
essary. The situation at the South
is improving and will correct itself
with the assistance of strong public
sentiment"

1t will comfort the New England
Republicans, who Of late have been So
sturdily resisting the tariff the Nc
Kinley bill lays or hides in the interest
of Western cattle raisers, to learn that
i. ID. Armour, the great Chicago cat
tie king, is about to establish several
large tanneries in the West, so as to
use up all the hides that come into
his hands. This, with the importa-
ton OF hides cut off by the Mckinley
tariff, will also cut off TO New Eng
land the only other source of supply
upon which she must depend, and vir-
tually close up all her tanneries; for
hitherto Armour had sold all his hides
to the East, and the supply was so
enormous that the foreign supply was
comparatively Of little importance.
To Armour, from the manner in
which he gets his hides, the cost is
comparatively nothing, and once en-
barked in the leather trade on a scale
of magnitude such as characterizes all
of Armour's business ventures, with
foreign hides taxed out OF the coun-
try, he will soon have about the whole
leather business Of the country In his
own hands
