The New York Tribune's broad columns and
large print make it the easiest paper in the coun
try 10 read either on the cars or at home.
Henry Roineike, proprietor Of the largest News
paper Clipping Agency IN the world, testihes in a
published card that ms clippings for over 1000
clients show that The Tribune contains. day by
than any daily newspaper in New y orK city He
proves the fact by figures. The Weekly ranks

Business men lind the market reports Of the
Tribune absolutely without an equal. The Trib
une Is the only newspaper in New York city
whose reporters actually visit all the different
markets in person.
The Tribune now prints the best and freshest
humorous pictures Of the day from the comic
press of two continents, and supplies plenty Of
other entertainment.
BY It's special kilograms and correspondence,
its able editorials and high literary character The
Tribune maintains a splendid position IN the re-
gard Of Republicans, and lovers Of music art and
good books.
The Tribune's society news is known every
where for excellence. Its fashions have always
been of special value. and changes of style are, as
a rule, foretold in The Tribune sooner than in
other newspaper
The New York Tribune is recognized officially
as the leading newspaper of the Republican party
As for farming and labor, The Tribune has for
80 years demanded, and yet demands that every
possible dollars worth of food and commodities
consumed by the American people shall be pro
duced by the American people. For this cause,
in every year
A man is judged by the newspaper he takes.
he who reads The Tribune Is wide awake, pro
gressive respectable and capable worthy OF the
confidence of business and social friends If you
are a young man, you viii live IN a rut all your
life Except by catering u that which is base If
you feed your mind upon newspapers full of
scandal, vulgarlty and inanity. Think for a mo-
ment OF the people who read newspapers Of that
class. On the other hand, The Tribune has prob
ably the largest clientele of the very people who

The quaint way Of looking az things. which ap-
pears in Roswell q Horr's writings in The New
York Tribune, gives TO his discussions Of business
questions an interest and vivacity which many
other such essays lack. Mr. Horr aims his gun
mainly at Free Trade and Free Silver notions, and
always blazes away with both barrels: but he
deals with work, wages government and many
other topics, and the articles make The Tribune
in the course OF tine year fully equal to "a whole
reference library on economics. The Weekly
Tribune certainly enj )ys at this time a very large
circulation, showing how strong hold il has on
the affection OF the American people. To be able
TO send one s paper every week into the homes Of
100000 or more Americans, who want It and pay
for it, is a great privilege. Fortunate, indeed Il
is for our country. that The Tribune is so clean,
decent and superb newspaper. No doubt its
large circulation has had something to do with
the awakening of Republican sentiment these last
two years. Every one SHOULD keep his eye on The
Tribune, and the only way TO do this is 10 buy il.
The Tribune Almanac for 1896 is promised as
usual, IN January, and is claimed 70 be the most
accurate and best Of all these almanacs. 1t did
not reprint part of the previous years almanac
in 1895, as did one of its rivals, to get out ION

The Schomburgk Linr.

The attention of the state department
has been called to the fact that the Schom-
burgk line is given as the boundary of
Venezuela on the official map issued by
that department few weeks ago in con
nection with the large volume of special
consular reports on the highways of com
merce. Not only is the Schomburgk line
given as marking the division between
British Guiana and Venezuela, but the en-
tire British claim to Brazilian territory
south of the Guianas is included in the
confines of the British colony.

Knight, M. Sherwins son-in-law, notified
mayor" Streeter and a search was made
but no trace was found of the would-be fire
bug Later it was learned that Miss Lizzie
Cavanaugh, who was going out Elliot street
about seven o'clock, saw a man jump the
fence west of the Sherwin house. In
jumping his foot caught on the fence and
h IS thrown headlong upon the side
walk but picked himself up and walked
rapidly out Elliot street, disappearing near
the iron bridge. Miss Cavanaugh, who
followed the man out Elliot street, says
she thought at the time that he was either
lame or drunk.
Several theories have been advanced as
to the object of the tire-bug. Mr. Sher-
win and Nj. knight have no enemies so
far as known, and the fire may have been
set with the intention of attracting atten-
ton and thus affording an opportunity for
burglary.

A newly perfected Maxim rapid fire gun,
made in England has just been received by
the ordinance department at Washington.
1t is the slightest looking weapon of war
that has ever been built for field or ship
service, and is considered to be the most
deadly and destructive small arm ever con
structed. II is a trife over four feet long
and weighs ~ pounds. Its inventors
guarantee that il can fire 600 rounds
minute. 1t is intended mainly for naval
purposes, but its light weight makes it an
easy gun for carriage across country. 1t
can be set up and handled readily and cas-
lily and it is claimed that it is so effective
that once in operation it cannot be reached
and captured. 1t is an automatic gun,
consisting of a barrel, surrounded by a
water jacket, and the requisite mechanism.
1t is fed with ammunition by means of a
belt, TO which the cartridges are attached.
1t IS simple in construction, sufficiently
strong, and, in case of accident, the faulty
part can be readily removed and replaced
by another. Its sighting and range find
ing are done mechanically. One man can
handle it with ease.

An Attempt Made 10 Burn Asa Sher-
wins Barn on Elliot Street.
An incendiary fire was discovered early
Friday evening in the barn of Asa Sherwin
on Elliot street. Soon after 7 o'clock,
as Mr.. Sherwin stepped from the back
stairs of his house some 80 or 40 feet from
the barn, he heard the barn door open or
close. He went toward the barn with his
lantern in his hand and as he came within
ten feet of the door a man rushed past
him, shielding his face with his arm and
clothing. He ran up the bank back of the
house and turned toward Elliot Street. On
going into the barn Mr.. Sherwin found
bale Of hay, which stood at the head of the
stairs, Oh fire. A pail of water stood near
by and with this the fire was extinguished
without summoning aid
Mr. SherWin cannot describe the man
who rushed past him, except that there
was something peculiar in his gait, as
though lame in his right leg, j. w.
