To the Daily LIGHT:
The enterprising merchants of
San Antonio, such as L. Wolfson,
Harms, Solinsky q Co., l.. P. Peck
& Co., and many others, who could
be we'll and favorably mentioned,
make it point to work upon busi-
ness principles, such as shall ordi-
narily command success. What
do they do? Why, buy in large
quantities at the cheapest rates,
securing all discounts and low
freights. Then they show them
of to the best advantage. That's
all right, but do they stop there?
oh, dear no, for they know that
would mean loss and probably
failure. They advertise largely.
tell people what bargains they
have to sell and the prices of those
bargains, so that they may know
and judge of their value. In
fact they do all possible to
attract customers to their
stores, for they know very
well that customers, if they do not
buy what they offer, twill buy what
they require. In any case the ad.
vertisement draws the customer, a
sale is made and generally both
are equally we'll satisfied. Thus the
live advertiser will make a hun
dred sales while the niggardly nom
advertiser is only making one, de-
irving in the end greater profit at
less expense. There is one thing,
however, that the advertiser must
never forget. Advertisement will
draw custom, but it remains with
the advertiser to keep it. He must
give the public a square deal, dc
all he processes to do. Then PEG.
pie will give credence to his adver.
tisement and be more likely to al.
ways trade with him.
But the mOssback will say ad.
vertising costs money. That's true

Latrobe, Pa, March 13.-Thomas Fin
negan, a demented man, attacked his
mother while laboring under a spell to-
day and she will probably die. He
struck her with an iron bar, fracturing
her skull, and then kicked her in the
stomach and left her for dead. Next he
attacked his father, beating him into an
unconscious condition. He then broke
all the furniture in the house and left
the premises. He then entered the house
of a neighbor named Eaton, but the
family seeing the crazy man approach,
fed. Finnegan proceeded to break the
furniture, and scarcely a whole piece
was left in the house. People hearing
of the affair, hurried to the scene and
attempted to arrest him, but his strength
was too much for them. John Smith,
who was pushed to the wall by the in
furiated man, pulled revolver and fired
at him. The ball passed through his
face, cutting out several teeth. Fin
negan fell to the ground and was over

Washington, March 13.-Advices re-
ceived at the state department to-day
from Minister Thompson at Rio Janeiro
indicate that the Brazilian rebellion is
about ended. The dispatches from Min
lister Thompson contain the information
that Admiral Da Cana has gone aboard
the Portuguese war vessel MindelO, now
in the harbor at Rio, and has sent to
President Peixoto by the Portuguese of
hcer an offer of surrender ON condition of,
full protection for himself and followers.
Two dispatches were received by the
state department. They were in cipher,
end when translated, read as follows:
"Rio de Janeiro, March u, 1891
Gres ham, Washington: Da Cana to-day,
through the senior Portuguese naval
commander, offered to surrender to the
president of Brazil providing he and his
followers were guaranteed protection
against punishment. Thompson"
: Rio Janeiro, March u, 1894. - To
Gresham: Da Cana has gone aboard q
Portuguese man-of-war for asylum.
-'Thompson."
Secretary Gresham believes this marks
the end of the BraZilial war. There
is conside rable surprise exp .ssed here by
those interested in the affairs at Rio
that the Cffer of Surrender should have
been made through the Portuguese COM
mander Who, up to this time, has not
ST. wp any particular disposition to take
a hand in the conflict. 1t is not thought,
however, that the action of the Portu-
yuese in receiving Da Cana is neces-
strily an act of sympathy with the in
surgents. The Portuguese are said to
recognize a principle of international
l,w, now obsolete, by which right of
asylum as it is called, is granted tenn
rcrarily by a neutral power to de"
fet ted belligerant.
