sANDBAGGED AND ROBBED.
Highway Robbery in Derby La
 Night.

H1ghWay RObDery III UerDy LaBt
 Night.
 Shortly after 10 o'clock last evening William Blakeman, groceryman, locked up his store and started up Bank street to where he boards. He was followed by two men, but did not pay any attention to them. He was either sandbagged or clubbed by them. When he again re- gained his senses his watch and chain and money amounting to over $200 were found missing. There is no clue to the perpe- trators of the deed. As Derby is without police protection they probably will have ample opportunity to show 8 clean pair of heels before the authorities can get trace

 WATCH AND MONEY GONE.
 John DrouGh Robbed of His
 Watch and Money in q State Street
 Saloon.
 John Drouffh, a Hungarian, an. em- ploye of Captain Craft at his brickysrds in Hamden, came to this city yesterday sf- ternoon with twenty-five dollars and a sill yer watch, worth about ten dollars, in his pockets, intending to have good time over Christmas. About 5 o'clock he drifted into McGowan's saloon, corner of State and Fair streets, and before he had been there great while the liquor which he imbibed got the better of him and he | began to feel sleepy. In order to shake off the effects of his over-indulgence he threw himself upon one of the chairs in | the saloon and was soon fast asleep. While in this condition his pocket was picked of all his money and his watch, the chain attached thereto being cut. When Drouffh awoke and discovered his | loss he reported it at police headquarters, | and Officer Powers was detailed upon the | case. The officer, in company with l Drouffh, visited the saloon but was unable | to discover any clue to the thieves. Mir. McGowan, the saloon keeper, was away from his place of business at the time the theft was committed. and feels very sore over the event, and will himself work on
 the case in concert with the police author | ities.

AN ENGLISH ADVERTISEMENT.

Why, no fewer than 400 patents have
been issued in this country for advertis-
ing devices and methods. Some of them
are marvels of ingenuity, others are WIS.,
ionary, all are interesting.
One man patented an advertising bal
loon, designed to sail over a city or the
country, carrying an automatic device to
throw down handbills to the astonished
multitude on mother earth. Another
inventor improved on this by attaching
to his balloon an immense screen, upon
which a magic lantern was to throw the
words, Read The Daily Moon" or Take
Squills Pills" in letters ten feet long.
Imagine that sort of an advertisement
floating over the country at night
An ingenious device, typical of the
electrical age in which we live, is to
hang upon the fronts of buildings, near
arc lights, sign whose letters will be
reflected upon the sidewalk for the
amusement of pedestrians.
Scores of inventors have designed card
distributing or card displaying machines
run by clockwork or weights. One of
the best of these is an automatic boy for
handing cards out to passers-by. A New
England genius patented revolving
Christmas tree, covered with figures OF
Santa Clauses, angels and clowns, all
going through some sort of performance.
Many years ago some one invented a de-
vice by which you put a coin in the slot
and take out an advertisement. 1t was
not a success; people will not buy adver-
tisements.
Many curious things in the advertis.
ing line may be seen among the models
or drawings in the patent office-cards
hung in railroad cars, to be changed
every time the bellcord is pulled by the
conductor; rotary lamps, with advertise

cheapest, no matter whether it costs fifty
dollars for one column per year in a
country weekly, or forty-two dollars an
inch per insertion, price which | have
frequently paid in an eastern weekly of
great circulation"
How much, dear reader, do you sup
pose the New York or Chicago merchant
pays for the two column advertisement
which he prints in three or four first
class daily newspapers? From SITS to
$3.50 per paper. Advertising cost money?
Yes, but it pays. 1t paid John Wana.
maker to spend $3.50, 900 a year in it and
to employ man at a salary of s., 900 a
year to attend to that part of the bust
ness.
And there is the patented advertising.
Is it possible for man to patent adver-
Using? You would think so were you to
take run through the big patent Office
here, as | did. while trying to earn my
newspaper friends thousand dollars.

vertisers. They advertised private and
public matters by writing as well as by
word of mouth. They had criers who,
in addition to their other duties, cried
sales of goods, public matters and things
lost or found. Street advertising in its
most original form was derived from the
Romans. There is extant a rude sketch
of a Chinese sandwich man who pa
raded the streets bearing advertise
ments strung upon bamboo pole 1000
years B. O. An Egyptian papyrus
advertisement of stock breeder, 5000
years b. G., is in the British museum,
and copy of it is in the United States
patent office. Signs over shops were
among the earliest advertisements. The
signs of Herculaneum and Pompsii were
made of stone Or terra Gotta relieve, and
set into the pilasters or sides Of the open
shop front.
In the ruins of those cities have been
found a goat-the sign of dairy; a mule
driving a mill-the sign of a baker, and
many similar devices. In old London
the bell man or crier was familiar fig
ure. 1t was less than a century ago
that the famous "tripe and batter" adj
vertising tombstone was erected by a
sorrowing but practical widow in an
English churchyard.
Considering that advertising is one of
the ancient arts, it is remarkable that
the first advertisement in a newspaper
did not make its appearance till about
200 years ago. The first known news
paper advertisement in anything like the
present form was printed in The Mercu-
RUS Politicus, an English publication, in
1852. Toward the close of that century
newspaper advertising was general
among the French and English. Books
were the first articles generally adver.
tised in the public prints.

PATENTED ADVERTISING BALLOON.

Using or popularizing my paper, some
thing superior to anything hitherto
tried, and | will give you thousand
dollars for it." | thought | could earn
his money. A hundred plans and prof.
ects formed more or less definitely in
my mind, but ! have not earned the
thousand dollars, Most of my inven-
tons were old; the new ones were
worthless. 1t is wonderful how few
really new things there are under the
sun. Probably there is no field of hui
man endeavor in which a greater amount
of ingenuity is being displayed at this
time than in advertising
Advertising has become a profession.
There is premium on skill and brains,
and ingenuity in it as in all other
professions The offer of thousand
dollars for one idea is not unusual
/ have heard of many similar offers.
The man whose brain is capable of
devising new and effective advertis-
ing devices and methods need not
despair of finding market for his
wares in this day and generation. But
do not imagine this road to success is
an easy one to travel. Advertising is
not a new thing in the world. Millions
of bright brains have pondered upon it,
schemed on it in all lands during nearly
two centuries.
Advertising is as ancient as the hills,
and it will endure till the end of time.
The ancient Greeks made their public

From the far west comes an invention
which the proprietor of a panacea for
grippe will do well to secure for advertis-
ing purposes. 1t is the figure of fend

bulldog revolver in hand, which leaps
out from behind a door when You open
it, thrusts his weapon into your face and

ANCIENT ADvERTIsING-3,00 900 YEARS b. G.
Today newspaper advertising is the
greatest Of all advertising. In 1867 the
government collected taxes on 100000,
900 worth of advertisements. Today it
could collect on an aggregate value
forty times greater. Last winter there
was held in Washington convention OF
wholesale druggists and patent medicine
men. Among them were some of the
keenest and most extensive advertisers
in the world. "In.what way do you adj
vertise most effectively" asked one of
these "In the newspaper, unquestion-
ably" was his prompt reply; there is
nothing like it. Advertising without
use of newspapers is like travelling from
New York to Chicago without using the
cars. You can do it, just as you can
walk, or go by canal boat but you can
not get there so quickly or so cheaply."
Another extensive advertiser said to
me: Newspaper advertising is best and
