Pears
Soap

People have no idea how
crude and cruel soap can be,
1t takes Oft dirt. So far,
so good; but what else does
it do?
1t cuts the skin and frcts
the under-skin makes red
ness and roughncss and
leads to worse. Not soap.
but the alkali in it.
Pears Soap has no free,
alkali in it. 1t neither red
dens nor rouehens the skin.
1t responds to water in
stantly: washes and rinses
off in a twinkling; is as
gentle as strong; and the
after-eftect is every way
good.
All sorts of stores sell It,
especially druggists; all' sorts
of people use it.

Tather sherman seeonded.

ST. Louis, No. Nov 19.-Colonel
Chandler of the Army Of Tennessee in
speaking Of the remarks made by Father
Sherman at the meeting of the society on
Thursday, said that it was the first he
had heard Of the reason why there was
no monument over the grave of General
Sherman
"Why, said he, cit is an outrage that
as this happens to be strike by the
workmen. this monument cannot be re
moved. Were it monument for an
ordinary citizen, there might be some
reason for this opposition, but it is a
tombstone for one of the greatest com
manders Of the world, but for which the
men would probably not think Of strik-
ing
"The Sherman family can do nothing.
But were those granite workers any
where in this Western country you may
be sure that monument would be placed
over the grave of our old commander"
Nothing" said Colonel Candle
could be done by the society" and in
this opinion General Dodge, the presi-
dent Joined. All they could do was to
keep up their project Of erecting a monu.
ment for the general in Washington
None of the gentlemen knew of this
trouble until Father Sherman spoke of it
at the meeting Thursday.

PROSPERITY AT FALL RvER.

Wealthy Cotton Corporations Realize
Immense Profits ON Their Investments.
lBy Telegraph to the Evening Journal.l
FALL RIVER, Mass, Nov IA
table published today gives the gross
earnings of the Fall River mills for the
past year.
Twenty corporations representing a
capital of Sl5,O2O,OO0, have earned So
1900 an average Of 1916 per cent.
Unusually cheap cotton has been the
important factor in the boom in this
business, as goods have not been particu-
larly high until within the last three
months, though there has been a steady
demand, and the market has been
cornered since August.
All OF the factories with but two or
three exceptions have been accustomed
TO pay generous dividends and to charge
oil certain percentage for depreciation.
Many of the companies have added TO
their surplus accounts, and the prospect
continues to be encouraging, owing TO a
recent advance in quotations.

LONDON, Nov. ia destructive fire

The fire originated in a restaurant and at

The fire appliances were found entirely

one of the finest buildings in Cardiff, was
destroyed, notwithstanding the heroic
efforts Of the fremen.
The flames spread to several ware
houses, which with their contents were
rapidly consumed, and a number of
Office buildings in the same vicinity were
destroyed
The heat was terrible, and several
persons in the immense crowd which
pressed as near as possible to the scene
of the confagration, were severly

stoker and driver, had narrow escape
from being crushed by a falling wall.

CHICAGO, Nov. 19.-Another move
ment is on foot to unite the Prohibition
and Peoples parties Yesterday a com
mittee representing both organizations
in Chicago called upon Senator Peffer at
the Grand Pacific to ascertain Lis views
on the subject.
"The attempt, said he, Ito unite the
parties which had failed a short time
ago because the Southern element OBJ
iested to anything in the way Of prohi-
bition. Bnt tine recent election had
demonstrated that the Peoples party had
very little strength in the South
and that il was strongest in
those localities which were
prohibition strongholds. Hence the
two parties might as well unite their
forces. The outcome of the conference
was the authorizing of Dr. Taylor,
chairman of the Cook County Pro
hibition club. to issue a circular to ascer-
tain the feeling of the two parties con-
cerniug the calling of convention dur
