RIDICULOUS ADVERTISING.
Clinging to Old Mossback Ideas and
Obstructing the Public Sidewalks.

Obstructing the Public Sidewalks.
Attention has been called to a grow
ing nuiSance-the use of sidewalk
space to advertise goods, wares and
merchandise This kind of advertis-
ing is practiced by merchants who
shun the advertising columns of the
newspapers. In order to let the peo-
pie know that they are keeping store
they pile up an assortment of articles
on the sidewalks, thus obstructing the
free passage of the public-they want
the people to stumble over their pO-
tato sacks, bark their shinS on pro-
jecting stoves, or tear their clothes on
rolls of barbed wire. These sidewalk
merchants keep clerks busy watching
their supplies, placed in such tempting
reach of the small boy or the inquisi-
tive dog; it costs considerable labor
and expense daily to build up their
displays, and take them down, and
watch them-the money thus spent
would give them catchy ads in the pa
pers that would reach the homes of
thousands of consumers. Besides the
sidewalk display, signs are put out
advertising articles at special or cut
prices. These signs are expected to
catch the eye of the public. These
merchants are behind the times-the
great public seek the columns of the
papers for news and information.
The people living all over the town see
the papers, while it is only the people
who have occasion to walk past a
'stOre who see the sidewalk advertise
ment.
The retail grocers are not the only
offenders, but they push the sidewalk
display, to ridiculous extent and the
complaint of the public is growing
daily. These gentlemen are non-ad-
vertisers; they keep up a sharp COM
petition among themselves, but are
away behind other merchants who
take advantage of the newspapers to
let the people know they are in bust
| ness.

Reports from Colima say that the in

much agitated over the prospects of Il
volcanic outbreak from the cid crater
The last outbreak was in 1850, whcr
much devastation was wrought ard
many plantations laid waste. The old in
habitants who remember that eruption
and its preliminary signs say thai the
present indications are similar to those
which preceded the former activity
Slight earthquake shocks frequently
repeated have been numerous and con.
slant ruInbling noises are heard about
the base of the old Volcano. Shocks
have been felt all along the coast from
San Bias to the isthmus for the last
two months and recently they have ma
terinlly increased in number and force
While no danger is anticipated ut ths
city of Colima, there are several small
towns around the base of the volcano
which would probably be destroyed
should an eruption occur.
In addition to the danger from the
volcano there is fear of earthquakes, and
the people recall The catastrophe OF
many years ago when the earth opened
and swallowed up great number OF
the inhabitants. This old cavity has
recently become sort of shrine visited
by many pilgrims.

it was considerably disturbed, the
