A Common Practice.

It's quite common for some trades people
to persuade a customer to take some other
article instead of that called for Il Is
sometimes called substitution, but it's
cheating the customer out of that which
he wanted. 1t is always done for mean
motive. The dealer who does this has M
consideration for his customer It's like
getting rid of something in which the
dealer himself was swindled, and yet he
must get his money out OF it by deceivinp
the customer. We say to the readers Of
this Journal that when you ask for Sim.
mons Liver Regulator don't take anything
else instead-it's the best liver medicine
The advertising is increasing the demand
for it, and the people who call for it should
get it, especially so because there is m
liver medicine like Simmons Liver Regu-
lator. Insist upon having it. and note that
the Red Z is on the front of the package.

Rev. Julius Fiecke, who left a Jersey
City pulpit to engage in the business of
running a beer saloon in Hoboken, was
summoned the other day by the govern

action should not be taken against him
for conduct unbecoming minister of the
gospel. He did not think the matter worth
a personal visit, but sent letter in which
he said he found the saloon business more
profitable than preaching, and it would
suit him to have the church governing
body do whatever it pleased in the prem

that proves the rule that the vast ma

Grnin shipments.

1t is pretty well understood that an ex-
pertinent in shipping grain from savan-
nah is to be made. The experiment will
be made with corn. We do not see why
it should not be successful. The distance
from Kansas City to Savannah is less
than 100 miles greater than the distance
from that city to New Orleans. At Sa-
vannah, however, the corn is much near
er Liverpool, or any other European port,
than it is when at New Orleans The
very much shorter ocean transportation
means lower freight rates and less in
surance. two items that cut an important
figure in the transportation of grain from
the producer to the foreign consumer
The assurances from Savannah to Euro
pean ports is considerably less than from
New Orleans to the same ports not only
on account of the lesser distance. bu;
also because that portion of the route
from New Orleans that passes around the
Florida reefs is considered dangerous.
Savannah has advantages over New Or
leans that should give her large
amount of grain for export If
these advantages are properly utilized
there are reasons for expecting to see
grain shipments from this port steadily
increase in volume when once they have
been begun.
The shipments may not be large this
year because of the comparatively small
amount of cotton to be transported in
the tramp steamers. On account of the
short cotton crop and the slcwness of the
cotton in coming to market the number
of tramp steamers in port this year has
not been as large as usual The plan is
TO carry the corn in the cotton-laden ships
just as phosphate rock is carried. 1t was
thought at first that phosphate rock could
not be shipped from this port profitably.
because of the distance of the port from
the phosphate fields. but the volume of
the phosphate shipments has gone on in
creasing ever since the shipping of phos-
phate began.
The experiment of shipping grain will be
watched with deep interest. 1t is sincere
~ to be hoped that it will be a success

! remember being at a remarkable din
ner given to the late Mr.. Il. r. Barnum
at the Hotel Victoria, in Northumber-
land avenue, on the occasion of the last
visit of the famous Snowman to England,
says the London Daily News. Mr.. George
Augustus Sala presided. In the reception
room, where all were waiting to welcome
the guest of the evening, Mr.. Barnurn
came in beaming, and shaking hands with
the chairman, said, with a strong yankee
accent: This is indeed a surprise to me -
Did you hear that?' Mr.. Sala whispered
to me; why, he arranged for the dinner
himself
There can be no harm in telling the
story, as Mr.. Barnum himself, who pub
ltcly put forward his claim to be acknowl-
edged a humbug, would doubtless have
chuckled on hearing it told of him in
lowed, Mr.. Sala was in excellent form
The gist of his speech was this-that
every great man was a Snowman.
I'VE have had " he said, Alexander
Barnum, julius Caesar Barnum, Hanni-

the shows of all these Barnums, splendid
as they were, had certain drawbacks

different sort of Snowman. 1t is he who
rejoices the heart of the widow and the
orphan and OF all who go to see his won

The Commission May BE the soru-

The commission May He the sOiu-
ton.
II is evident that the President is going
to appoint as members OF the Venezuela
boundary commission men who will COM
mand the respect and confidence of both
this country and Great Britain. Judging
from the tone Of the English papers.
Great Britain expects him to do So That
being the case, what would be more nat
uraI than that Great Britain should in
directly submit her side of the dispute
to the commission, and be influenced by
its decision?
She could not, Of course, submit 1t d.
rectly, but is is probable that Secretary
Olney will ask Lord Salisbury for the
documentary evidence Great Britain has
TO support her claim. and there is ground
for thinking he will furnish it. He may
go further, and submit an argument in
behalf of the British claim. II he should
do that, and the decision should be in
Great Britain's favor. he would no doubt
accept it. Why. then, If he desires to be
fair. should he not accept the decision if
it should be against Great Britain?
The case broadens the more it is con-
sidered. 1t is evident now that the COM
mission could not get through with its
work inside of three or four months, and
as it will hardly be appointed before
Jan. /, it will be pretty close to summer
before We should have report from it.
There is a vast amount of documentary
evidence that will have to be hunted I'm
and studied, some of which doubtless Is
rather difficult of access. Already the
question of sending a commission to Ma
drid and The Hague to search the old rec
ords relating TO the boundary
is suggested. This would take
time, and a great deal of it, so that
the Venezuela incident will have lost
much of its interest before the commits
sion is ready to make its report.

Kelley, the motor man, says he is not
going to patent his wonderful invention.
Anybody will be permitted to use it, upon
the payment to him of a royalty. The
reason he will not take out patents is
that it would delay the bringing out of
the motor too long % and there are so
many parts to the apparatus that would
have to be patented separately that it
would cost too much money to protect
them in that manner. That statement is
made just at the time that Kelley is try
ing to reorganize his company.
