Have You
An Account?

This is a serious question,
one at which some folks take
offense, yet statesmen are under
the necessity of asking it.
Some folks deal near home,
settle infrequently, never in
vestigate to see whether they
pay more than they should and.
too often allow their accounts to
go long over due. If you don't
care what the family expenses
are it's a poor way to do if you
want to leave your children i'll
affiuent circumstances when
you are gone. Now it is quite
an advantage to have an open
account at a well-known house,
who can execute your order
promptly. Often persons say
they don't want an account and
will pay in a few days. But
we cannot keep memoranda Of
charges; it isn't safe or good
business. The stock found in
ordinary stores is usually stale,
uninviting and inferior, while
the stock in our store is turned
so frequently and SO carefully
watched that it is at all times
fresh. Our stock in trade con-

Washington, Oct. 2o.-The depart ment of state will call upon the Ven ezulean government for a full eXpla- nation of and reparation for the mur- der of Leopold Stern, who represented a New York jeweler in the South American republic, and was brutally slain by bandits in September last. The bandits knew that Stern had a large quantity of jewelry with him. He was ambushed in a mountain pass near TCvar, and when he fought to defend his property was stabbed to death.
 The news of the assassination of MT. Stern was forwarded to the gov ernment by MT Plumacher, the Unit ed States consul at Maracaibo. In his letter of advice the consul says that seven peaceful travellers have been waylaid and murdered in a sim liar manner, and that none of the murderers so far have been arrested. The Venezulean government seems apathetic about the matter, but. hay ing been stirred up by Consul Plu- macher. is making some effort to bring the murderers to justice.
 Stern was we'll known in New York city. He had the agency for some time for German silver plated goods concern. The agency was with drawn, and then Stern went to South America as the representative of sev- eral New York firms.

AT THE BREAKFAST TABLE.

The merchants of the city of Paris gave banquet to President Faure in commemoration of his recent visit to Russia Referring to the recently revealed resources of new countries (such as the Klondyke and southern and central Africa) M.

 One hundred and four miles an hour on railroad Is something ter rife. And yet this seems to be the coming speed of the .Apress train. The other day the Holman locomo- tive, under the care of William Hol- man, the son of it's inventor, ran from Winslow Junction to Cape May, distance of fifty-six and one tenth miles, in thirty-fve minutes and it is said that the speed of 1O4 miles an hour was maintained for two miles.
 A new Klondyke has been found. John Sturgeon and Robert Hening of Cincinnati have written to friends in Tacoma, stating that gold has been found on the east side of the mountain opposite the Klondyke re- gions. They do not describe its po- sition accurately because they say they want to avoid the payment of the 20 per cent royalty which the Ca nadian government is imposing upon gold mines in the northwest terri tory.
 Our public school system is scme- thing of which the nation is proud, but there are exceptions to every rule and every case. There is a district in Logan county, Kan, in which the only residents of the school district are W. H. Freeman, his wife, a daughter and son. Every year they annually elect themselves memhe S of the school board and vote a six months school at $30 a month. The daughter is employed as a teacher. and her brother is the only scholar. In this way S1S0 of public money has been wasted for several years.
 The president of the Home Brewing company in St. Louis says that in a few days they will run horseless beer wagons. The wagons will be pro- pelled by gasoline engines, instead of horses. The engine weighs only 300 pounds, and, it is said, will run ten hours on five gallons of gasoline, which can be bought for cents a gallon. No engineer is required, and the engine is self oiling The gear ing can be reversed, and the wagon suddenly stopped or instantly backed without stopping the engine.

 New York, Oct 20.-The schooner Percy and Lillie arrived today, twen- ty-three days out from Pascagoula, minus her deck load of lumber and with a story of stress of weather.
 Capt. Miller reported that the weather was threatening after passing the Florida Straits and on the even- ing Of Oct. 1 the wind from the north east increased to gale. Before day light it took on the force of huri- cane and the schooner labored heavily in the enormous seas, rolling and pitching and straining till her seams opened.

Miller decided ht mid night of Oct. to jettison the cargo consisting of about 95,000 feet of strips The work took all night, but was accomplished without injury to vesse Tor men.
