"No one to blame but your
selves for the low prices and
little profts,' says one of our
greatest producers Of merchan-
disc. elf you had kept up old
prices and not given your Gus
toners the whole of the conf
dental rebates and almost all
the discounts all hands would
have been making more
money"
Guess it is so. We are
guilty of dividing the loaf with
our customers. Our idea OF
business is to be of the great
est possible service to those
who choose our store to deal
in.
Whatever we can save to
them in better qualities and
lower prices, fuller sizes, more
careful workmanship is bound
to be to our advantage in the
end.
1t is the long run we are
counting on. No shouting or
hurrahing, but putting our
statement in plain clothes and
still being old-fashioned enough
to believe that pointing out
defects in goods is better than
allowing our customers to dis
cover them and be aggrieved.
We commenced that way in
1877, and we keep on that way,
except that our manner of deal
ing grows more andmore liberal,
and we do everything thatcan be
done consistently for the great
est good OF all our customers.
We allow return OF all goods,
except Mattresses that might be
slept on, goods for medical pur-
poses, tooth brushes and such
like, and think we serve our
patrons best by these few excep-
tons.
We go to the farthest extreme
in providing every safeguard for
those who deal here as to quail
tiles and values. The confidence
the people give US shall never
be misplaced.

Rnrplars in Mount Holly.

Burglars have been operating in Mount
Holly the past week. They began work
on Wednesday night, by breaking into
Joseph J. Tuley's saloon, near the station,
gaining entrance by prying open shutter.
Any noise they may have made was
drowned by the storm. There was about
so cents in the cash drawer, which the
thieves took, besides helping themselves
to some eatables. Three beer glasses with
a small quantity of beer in each, left stand
ing on the counter, would seem to Indicate
the number of burglars.
Daniel Harrington's saloon, on Water
street. was also entered the same night.
The thieves were more successful here,
getting about $32. This money was what
had been collected by the man who drove
the beer wagon during the day. When 1t
was turned in to the proprietor it was
placed on a shelf and glass jar put over
it, Entrance was effected here, as at
Tuley's, by prying open a shutter. The
burglars were evidently well acquainted
at the place, as Harrington's watchdog,
which was in the saloon, made no cutlery.
On Friday night about 10 O'Clock, the
family of Alfred Wolfrom, Washington
street, who were sitting on the front step,
went into the house to eat some water
melon. Alfred could not find knife, and
on hunting around he discovered the
knives, silverware and other articles tied
up in lace dress. Mr.. Wolfrom then
searched the house and found out that
there had been a general ransacking of
the place. The entrance Of the family
probably scared the intruders away as
nothing was carried off.
About midnight, on Friday, the daugh-
of Henry Nippins, on Mil street, was
awakened by noise on the street and
looking out of the window, she saw man
at window of Nicholes K Nippins' liquor
store She at once aroused her father,
who dressed. loaded his gun, went down
stairs and stood at his front door awaiting
developments. The man tried shutters
AID doors and then went down toward
the stable. In few minutes he returned
and then Mr.. Nippins stepped out and
called for him to stop. The man refused
and Nippins threatened to shoot. Just at
this point, policeman Branson, who had
also been Watching grabbed the fellow
who proved to be George Loyeland, who
has been arrested before for petty thefts
, Mr.. Nippns declined TO prefer any charge
and the fellow was allowed to depart.

At meeting of the Brigantine Transit
Company last week it was decided to
build two large ferryboats to run across
the inlet, and to run the steamer Brigan-
tine from Brigantine Beach to Beach
Haven. This will complete the coast line
from Atlantic City to New York, with the
exception OF break of ten miles between
Barnegat City and Seaside Park, but it is
said the Pennsylvania railroad will supply
the missing link by extending their tracks
down Barnegat Beach to the inlet.
Capt. Woody Cranmer had serious
time Of it on Sunday and feels thankful
that he is still alive. He was engaged by
parties at Beach Haven to 60 to the inlet
and pilot a sloop yacht just arrived from
New York up to Beach Haven. He in
company with several others met the
Yacht after she had entered the inlet and
were endeavoring to board her when by
some cause the sloop ran Capt. Cranmer's
yacht down, upsetting her and tearing the
sail into shreds Those on board the ca
yacht made quick work in boarding the
stranger and thus saved their lives.
AS the result of a conference between
Captain George G. Reiter, of the Fourth
Light house district, and Manager ]. 7
Skerrett of the Brigantine Transit com
pany, Captain Reiter will recommend to
the government that four buoys be placed
in the channel between the inlet, Atlantic
City and Brigantine, and that range
beacon be placed on the northern edge Of
Rum Point. Captain Reiter will also re
commend that bell buoy be placed on
the outer bar. The new steamer Brigan-
tine has run on shoals at night several
times recently as the result of the pilo
having nothing to guide him.

in effect that the Treasury will pay all expenses
incurred for deportng Chinese under the Geary

ton of the law is thrown upon the Department Of
Justice. Attorney-General Olney has officially
stated the position OF the Department to be

"Marshals and their deputies have been In

must be served and that any orders for the de-
portatons subsequently made In such cases must
be put into execution to the extent OF any funds

CHRISTIANITY IN AMERICA.

Chicago Sept. 2L-Sundays sessions OF the Par

usual. They numbered two instead Of three and
the programmes were abbreviated one-half The

.rhc Relation of Christianity to America That

dress given in the afternoon meeting by Professor
Thomas O'Gorman, Of the Catholic University at
Washington. while the subject Of the Rev. DR.. Da-
yid James Burrel pastor Of the Marble Collegiate
,.rurch OF New-York who Immediately followed
him. was what Religion Has Wrought for Amer
ica."
In the evening another excellent contribution 10
the discussion was made by the Rev DR.. h. II.
Carroll who spoke on The Present Religious Con-
dition Of America"
one other feature of the evening meeting was an
address by the Rev George f. Pentecost' the well
known London preacher.
