Mr.. Craig is no politician, never hav.

have achieved a reputation under his
management not only at home but in
the markets of New York and Pitts.

THE phenomenal Republican ma.
ority of over $4,000 in Maine pre-.
sents one very significant feature.
While Cleaves (Rep,) has 38,0S4
over johnson (Dem.), the vote for
Cleaves is an increase of only 1909
over his vote of 1892, but Johnson's
vote is 23,755 less than in 1892. The
logic of this fact is that the Democrats

COTTON FIRED ON A TRUCK.
1t Was Near the Scene of Last
Weeks Street Car Robbery.
lncendiaries Thought to Belong to tn
Notorious West Side Gang.

In West Twelfth street, just off Abng-
don Square. eleven bales of cotton that
were loaded on a truck were burned at
midnight, and II is believed the fire was
the work of an incendiary.
The truck stood just half block from
the point where an Eighth avenue car
was held up and robbed by gang of
thieves a week ago. 1t is thought that
the flames may have been started by
some members of the gang of the west
side. which the police are making Wig.
orous efforts to break up.
The cotton was the property of Wood
ward e. Stillman. who have an Office at
16 William street. Last night II was
taken from the Company's warehouse
street, and driven to Twelfth street
where 1t was left in front of No. 3l6.

T.. Harrington, lives.
1t was almost II o'clock before the
truck pulled up to the house. The driver
took his horses to the stable, two blocks
away, and had just entered his house
when there was a cry of fire from the
street. Harrington rushed out, and saw
the cotton blazing, but there was no one
In sight. He could not say even who II
was that had given the warning cry.
When Harrington had sent out ar
alarm, he rushed back to the truck, and
tried to pull one of the burning bales
from the truck. Both his hands were
badly burned in the attempt.
The fire was extinguished by the fire.

LIVING PICTURES THE RAGE.
Onc Thnt We Meet Exerx nnY.

For months past the papers have been
fairly alive with criticism of the beauti-
fui living pictures, which are now so
much the rage at many of our theatres.
Some of these criticisms have been ad-
verse, Ringing principally on the question
of morals. but the majority have been
favorable, and the pictures are here to
stay, enjoying an immense popularity.
But step outside the theatre into the
still night and think a minute. Where.
in all your theatre-going, can you find a
living picture which embodies such
strength and enterprise as the Cowper-
thwait Furniture and Carpet business, on
Park Row near Chatham Square? And
what shall we say of its popularity when
we daily observe the throngs of buyers
in all parts of the big stores or watch
the happy faces which emerge from the
office?
This long-established firm has earned
for itself an enviabe record by selling
good goods for in all its transactions
down through eighty-seven years of
steady business there is not even a sus-
pcion of a tarnish This fact, In itself.
Is the best guarantee of satisfactory
treatment which buyers could have. A
visit will convince you. -

was indeed m eventiuI one-they were
out, horse and foot. man, woman and
child TO inspect their new conveyance
TO the city propGr-their Jerry boat, tho
Charleston. AS on Friday and Saturday
no fare was charged OH the boat, and
throughout the day, especially in the
afternoon, the craft was crowded to its
utmost capacity every trip. There was
not a minute in the afternoon when
there was not perfect stream OF people
passing up and down Water aud
Twelfth streets. to aud from the boat.
As Water street merchant remarked,
the Island ferry is going TO be the max.
ing oil Water and Twelfth streets. Prop.
erty on the former thoroughiaro is
already being held at large advances on
former priccs-aycraging about % per
cent.
The Charleston's crew are now hand
ling the craft in much better shape
than Saturday or Friday. Round trips
are now made easily in eight minutes,
and it is claimed that those who patron
ize it will not lose any time over the
time required to walk over the bridges.
Speaking OF tho bridges, it was a much
remarked upon fact that they practic-
ally did no business yesterday. The
usual throng OF pedestrians was strange
ly missing.
1t was said Yesterday that the Wheel
ing Bridge Company would secure an
injunction to-day from tho courts, re-
strnining the operation OF tho boat rs it
now runs, the ground oil the injunction
being that the ferry company is occupy
ing ground that belongs to the bridge
