WATCHES.
Some Facts Concerning the styIes-The
Great Number Of Watches Used.

Some Facts Concerning the StyIes-The
Great Number Of Watches Used.
In this country almost everybody car.
ries watch. Probably nine-tenths OF
the men and great numbers Of women
and many young people carry watches.
In the best trade of the city many more
watches of gold are sold than of silver;
of all the watches sold throughout the
country about 90 per cent are Of gold
The percentage of gold watches is in
creasing.
The fashionable watch Of the day is
open faced. The sale of open faced
watches is increasing, especially in fine
watches, but it is increasing also in
watches of other grades OF fine gold
watches sold in the city probably two
thirds are now made open faced OF all
the watches sold In the United States,
gold and silver, probably from quarter
to a third are now made open faced
The modern watch has for one Of its
characteristics thinness. A man s watch,
which is now made more especially to
wear with evening dress and is all the
time growing in favor, is plain. thin,
open faced gold watch, which takes up
but little room in the pocket Perfect
in its simplicity, this watch is at the
same time of fine workmanship and
great beauty. 1t sells at 500. A gold
watch not SO thin nor so finely finished.
but very handsome modern watch and
an excellent timekeeper, by the same
makers and bearing their name, can be
bought in open face, the case of IS carat
gold. for sos; in double case for $40.
But gold watches and good watches,
too, can be bought for very much less
than these prices-in fact, there never
was time when watches generally were
made in such tasteful shapes, or when
they were SO good for the money or so
cheap as now.
Taking all the grades together, the
American production of watches is
about 4, 600 daily. The importation Of
watches amounts to about the sar'e
number One might at first wonder
what becomes Of all these watches. A
great number are taken up annually BY
the new buyers coming into the market
for the first time out of the constant and
large increase in the population. Great
as the percentage of watch owners now
is in this country, that also is increas-
ing. Many immigrants buy watches as
soon as they get the money. Some men
own more than one watch. Watches
wear out or their owners lay them aside
for better watch or for one Of newer
style. Watches are lost and destroyed,
and when one comes to take all these
things into consideration it will be seen
that the great production Of watches
may be inlarce measure easily account
ed for.-Eew York Sun.

AN ADJOURN
MENT BLUFF.
The House Is Not Prepared
as Yet To Think of Adj
journing Sine Die.

Austin, Tex, Feb. I2.-The
usual resolution of sine die
adjournment has been sent to
the House by the Senate, the
time for adjournment being
fixed at March 20. Members
of the House say this is a bluff
on the part of the Senate, con-
tending that the House OF
Lords is well aware of the fact
that a sine die adjournment
cannot be reached by that
time. The truth is, but little
has been accomplished by
either body and the session is
one month old today. There
is a perfect flood of bills pend
ing in both bodies, and espec-
tally in the House, and up to
date action has been taken on
but four OF them. Unless the
Legislative record is broken a
a months time will be expend-
ed on the appropriation bill
alone, and it is doubtful if this
bill will be taken up before the
first of March. Numerous
importants measures and plat
form demands are pending on
most of which there will be a
fight, and if the session does
not run into May it will be a
public surprise. The members
are not even thinking of adj
journment yet, and will not
contemplate such a thing until
the s. per diem commences,
thirty days hence.

SETTLED AT LAST

Washington, d. c., Feb. u.
The vexed question of the
Cherokee freedmen payment.
which has long been a source
of trouble to the government,
has been settled at last, and
Special Agent Dickson and an
expert of the Interior Depart
ment are now on their way to
make the payment. The
ammo,1nt aggregates $4,000,
which is due on the proceeds
of the sale of the Cherokee
Strip. There are 1851 OF the
freedmen or negroes. The &C
ton is the outcome of a judi
cal decision that they are en-
titled to an equal per capita
share with the Indians. The
payments viii begin at Hayden,
l.. T., and are the final pay
meats on account of the
Cherokee Strip.

A Word to the
Wise is
SuffiCient!!

Don't be humbugged by men travelling through
the country buying contracting poultry when you
get just much more from your home buyers
We understand there strangers travelling in this
vicinity buying poultry and we have known it
to fail after they have left the country those that sold
to them acknowledged they swinded in weights
some other mysterious manner and would have re-
ceived more net cash from However the very next
time new man comes around they have forgotten
their former experience and are again ready to be
caught in the same trap. We do not blame any one
for wanting TO get all they possibly out of their
produce but cannot understand why the people of
Audubon county will be swinded time after time in
the same manner.
We all know these men not travel around here
without big expenses and in these days of fierce
petition the home merchant will net you just much
more for your produce any travelling concern
possibly Our motto has always been honest
weights, honest prices and on these principles want
to buy your poultry this year Get prices before
you sell to strangers and then if you think you can
better yourself sell to them. Remember
pay cash for poultry if you want it.

San FRANCISCO. July 1Y.-The last
open session Of the International Chris.
tian Endeavor was held Monday. The
attendance at the morning and after.
noon meeting was large, and at night
those who managed to obtain entrance
to either of the main meeting places
were fortunate, for only $4,000 could be
accommodated and 10000 more sought
admission. Estimates made by leading
business men agree that the people
brought here by this great gathering
will leave not less than $1,000, 900 in
our city. All the leaders of the move.
ment are pleased with the success OF
their efforts and with the outlook for
the future Of the society.
The rivalries which has existed be.
tween two societies of Chicago En-
deavorers since the incipiency Of the
California excursion has eliminated in
open agitation. One faction was headed
by the Rev. @. s. Bullock, editor Of the
Christian Endeavorer, the other by E.
A. Ransom, who represented the Golden
Rule followers. En- route to San Fran.
cisco the Chicagans split at Denver on
the Sunday travelling question, the Bull
lock party arriving at Salt Lake City on
Saturday evening and the Ransom
party on Sunday evening.
At this point the banners, "Illinois
Endeavorers" hung from the Bullock
coaches were taken by the Ransom
people with the plea that the former
did not officially represent the Illinois
delegation. The Bullock passengers
were all Illinois Endeavorers and main.
tanned their right to organize separate
California bound excursions and to so
designate themselves on their coaches.
The banners, however, were not re-
covered.
The second chapter Of this religious
war has been written on the Pacific
slope. The Bullock party, which ar.
rived two days ahead Of the Ransom
party, planned under the leadership OF
Mr.. Bullock, who had been officially as
signed to slum meetings in connection
with tho convention series OF gospel
meetings in chinatown and similar dis
tricts. When the Ransom people ar
rived they promptly had Mr.. Bulloca
turned down as leader of slup meet

SAN FRANCISCO, July l4.-"The Inter
national Christian Endeayor convention
Of 1897 will pass into history as in some
respects the greatest and most memora

Endeavorers is equal to an attendance
