A Form of Petty swindling.

Mr.. A. Frank Richardson, a thoroughly
practical and experienced newspaper man,
and probably the most successful advertis-
ing solicitor in the United States, in his adj
dress before the editorial convention last
week, called attention to the preva-
lence of a system of petty swindling, which
strikes directly and with tremendous effect
at the business interests of every newspaper
publisher in this country. He referred to
the universal practice OF local dealers, and
counterteits of standard and widely adj
vertised preparations. This dishonest prac-
tice obtains especially with respect to the
sale of proprietary medicines. Many of
these preparations possess. great merit by
reason Of which and the vast sums Of
in proclaiming their virtues, have become
immensely popular. We maJ incidentally
mention, as an example, Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, whose proprietor expends upwards
of million dollars every year in adj

fects Of the buckshot wounds. The pistol
ball had glanced around his head.

A PLUCKY GIRL.
Miss Rita Smiths Experience at

Miss Rita Smith, quite well known
in social circles here, who is at present
visiting her sister, Mrs. Edwin Clark,

serious injury at that place Sunday

pair of fractions horses, pending the ar
rival of her brother, who had left them
hitched at their sisters house, the ami
mails reared, and the young lady, ,pluckily
trying to cling to them, was thrown
violently under their feet. For while
serious results seemed imminent, but as
the horses made a second plunge the
frightened girl, with remarkable agility,
scrambled from her perilous position
Just in time to escape being trampled
upon as we'll as run over by the heavy
vehicle with which they then dashed
away. Though having such narrow
escape, her friends will be glad to learn
that with the exception of few slight
bruises and sadly demolished Sunday
dress Miss Rita remains as we'll and
charming as usual. Her sister, Mrs.
Clark, however, who witnessed the
scene, received such fright that she
tainted, and was so prostrated for the
remainder of the day as to cause her
family considerable alarm.

One OF the most conspicuous and
beautiful gifts In the lists was hand

gregation. The chalIce is nearly foot
In length. and IS iniaid and inset with
various minerals and gems. the whole

magnificent presents ever presented. II
is UNIQUE from the fact that the entire
chalice is made up Of various pieces OF
gold and silver jswelry donated by the
ladies of the society, and sent 10 New
