A DARING THIEF.
he Enters the Residence of Mr.. r. NJ.
Orme in Broad Daylight.

BE Enters the Residence of Mr.. r. NJ.
Orme in Broad Daylight.
A white man was seen to enter the
yard Of Mr. r. M Orme at $40 Harris
street, Tuesday afternoon about 6 o'clock.
Little attention being paid to his move
ments by those outside, he made his way
into the wOodhoUse, where he hid and
was not detected on account of the fact
that the servant was out.
While the family were eating supper
the servant heard a noise down stairs and
was told to go down and see what was
the matter. AS she reached the bottom
stair the white man rushed past her,
knocking her down and running out the
back door, making his escape.
1t seems that the noise heard by those
upstairs was the bursting open of Mr..
Orme's study door by the thief, who en-
tered that apartment, unlocked Mr.
Orme's private drawer and took it out
into the yard in his flight. He had taken
50 in silver from the drawer, but dropped
the drawer and the rest of the contents
A pOcketboOk containing about $40
was found in the yard. He
had stolen IS from the servant girl and
in his fight had grabbed up a handful Of
Mr.. Ormes books on Rev. David De
VINE and the Devil" which he dropped in
the yard outside.
This is another one of the sneak thieves
who have been carrying on their depre-
dations in the southern part of the city,
and it would be well for the people to
keep their eye on their yards.

A SIGN of BETTER Times.

When every body is hoping for the re-
turn Of better times, each straw that
shows the wind to be blowing from that
quarter, is worthy of special notice
There is no barometer so reliable as the
demand for goods Nobody buys stock
for fun or for appearances.
Our advertisers, The Charles r. Hires
Company, of Philadelphia. transact bust
ness over very wide field, dealing in
every city. town, village and cross roads
in the country. They report that the
sales OF Hires Rootbeer so far this sea-
son are very much in excess Of the same
period last year When it is remem-
Oered that their annual sales have before
this reached the enormous total of 2,SS0,-
2iS packages, which equals more than a
gallon for every family in The country it
would seem at first thought that there is
little room for further growth. Thirst
for it, however, seems to be universal as
this years report shows a very largcgain,
indicating that ere long the person who
does not drink Hires ROotbeer will be
somewhat of a curiosity.
No temperance beverage has ever any
where nearly approached Hires Root
beer in popularity Its wonderful sue
cess can De accounted for only on the
ground that it IS just what the manufac-
turers Claim-an honest extract of ma
lures most healthful roots, which stakes
thirst, improves health, and pleasas every
member of the family. Its remarkable
sale certainly proves that millions enjoy
Hires ROOtbeer.

tions.
The Democratic Club held an enthusi-
astic meeting at Armory hall last night
There was a good attendance and a num-
Der of new members were added to the
rolls.
Capt. H. c. Cunningham spoke in in
dorsement Of the resolution intro
duced by Col Mercer at the
meeting Of the executive committee Tues
day night, calling for a mass meeting
of the party to decide whether the pri-
mary system should be continued, and if
so, to adopt rules and regulations for the
management of the primaries Capt
Cunningham said he was unalterably OPP
posed to ANYTHING looking to division Of
the party. but be felt convinced that the
primary system as at present conducted
Is unsatisfactory, and that the mass
meetings are preferable in every way.
The last primary, he said, was a farce
The remarks were greeted with ap-
plause. Some of the members differed
with Capt. Cunningham however, and
motion to request the chairman Of the
executive committee to call a mass meet
ing of the party was withdrawn.
An executive committee of twenty
members was appointed by the president
with power to arrange for the conduct of
the coming campaign. The committee
will oppose the holding of the district
mass meetings next Wednesday night,
and will urge upon the chairman of the
party to name a later date
The club adjourned subject to the call
of the chair A meeting will probably
be called for the early part of next week,
when it is positively known upon what
da tie the district mass meetings will be
held. The executive committee was
authorized to confer with the executive
committee of the Tammany Club with re-
gard to the conduct of the campaign.

There Is no financial panic in France.
There are more paupers in London
than in all France. There are more
persons out of employ in New York
and in Chicago than in France.
Why are these things so? Because
the people of France see to it that
they are heard in their law-making
places, and that their government
supplies the people of France with
enough money to carry on the busi-
ness of the country. You never see
or hear of a man coming from
France to this country to borrow
money; such thing was never known.
In all London you cannot find or hear
of a man there from France on a
mOney-borrowing mission. France
has $500, 100000 of gold money and
500, 900, 900 of silver, being just about
twice as much Of each kind per capita
as we have. France has 81, 800, 600, 900
of full legal tender paper money to
stub around at home with, and that
serves all debt-paying purposes, as
the serviceable garb Of the farmer
and his family serves TO wear while
producing wealth. Also France has
81 in gold money to the United King
dom of Great Britain SO, and 81 to the
latter's 81. In France there are &c.,
100000 inhabitants, and in the Unit
ed Kingdom, 3S,000,000 inhabitants.
In France, 3,226,OOO are owners OF
land, while 10 the United Kingdom
only $50, 900 are owners of land. France
has several times more gold and sill.

money is easy and loans with Kansas
