NATE sALIsBURY's SUCCESS DUE TO LIBERAL USE
OF NEWSPAPER SPACE
1t is a well-established fact that the success
which has attended Nate Salisbury as manager
OF Buffalo Bills Wild West Show and other en-
tertainments is largely due to the extensive
and complete methods of advertising used.
Newspapers are the principal mediums and
space is used generously. The result has been
successful ventures. When Black America was
announced this spring the public was prepared
to patronize because it was under the same
management as other good exhibitions The
season in New York, which closed last week,
has been marked with success, and it is antici-
pated that the same will follow it in Boston,
where the entertainment is now. The same
methods of advertising will be pursued, and
the same results will of course follow, as Bos-
ton has a number of frst-class newspapers

Jose /. Barillas. nephew of ex-President
Barillas, is now in the City, and discussed
Guatemala with party of friends at the Occi-
dental yesterday.
Eyes" said Mr.. Barillas in answer to ques-
ton, Guatemala is a great country and an
excellent field for American enterprise. In
deed, there are many Americans, Germans,
English, Italians and French there now, and
they have possession of valuable plantations
and factories. Money is easily made in Guate-
mala and living IS cheap. The climate, gener-
ally speaking, is healthy and invigorating.
The Indians and lower classes are friendly to
the Americans, and trouble rarely occurs when
the right treatment is given the natives.

Colonel Waring has certainly given New
York City cleaner streets than we have had
heretofore. But his quarrels with the heads of
the various departments, his insane desire TO
see his name in print and his pettifogging
methods have made him nuisance to the sem
sibIe New Yorker. Colonel Waring seems
likely to take the throne left vacant by the
lamented Count Johannes. The militant Com
missioner should subdue himself. He is q
nuisance.-NeW York Commercial Advertiser.

The Puritan Inf1uence.

The vital force which the Puritans impaired
to English character has not been lost, and the
men who wrote "The Pilgrims Progress" and
paradise LOST have their successors in the
strongest and best writer's of to-day in England
and America. The Puritan still survives, and
the element which he impaired to American
character is the best inheritance which has
come to us from our English forefathers.-Bos-
