Made a Success.

The story is still told in the Syrian colony
of two brothers who landed in New York
some ten or a dozen years ago without
money. and who began commission. One
of them now owns fine store in Pittsburg
and the other store in Washington, and
both are doing a business that must yield
a profit of many thousands year in ori
entail goods, rugs mats, embrolderies. cur
tains. jewelry, hammered brass, old guns
and eastern arms.
This is not an exceptional case either.
Numbers of these thrifty Armenians do a
thriving trade each summer at the big re-
sorts, such as Newport, Saratoga and At
lantic City, where they keep small stores
or baZaarS. In the winter they go south and
establish themselves at st. Augustine and
Tampa, or wherever the tourist class is
likely 10 be. Many of these men sell really
fine goods and have regular customers
among the fashionables, who buy from
them year after year.
The Syrians in New York are principally
in the wholesale business. These stores are
all located at the end of a street far down
town. Two or three blocks describe the
limits of the colony. The shops are dingy
and uninviting from the outside: on going
in one finds queer array of goods; a large
part of the visible stock is cheap and gau-
dy, but ii is a mistake to suppose that this
is all. In the boxes on the shelves are pret-
ty certain to be stored some really rich
silks that are worth looking at. II the
visitor is properly appreciative, scarfs,
shawls and table covers, all beautifully en-
the way corners for his inspection and ap-
proVai.
Quick at n Bargain
In some of the stores, belts, buckles and
pins done in enamel and evidently intend
ed to make strong appeal to the eye, are
exposed in showcases, with old pistols
guns, swords and daggers.
None of the Syrian merchants deal i'll
precious stones or jewelry.

prices, for, though they are wholesale deal
ers, they are willing to get what they can
out of the retail business that comes their
way.
The business done in these stores
amounts to q good deal more than one

Augusta VS.. Lewiston. This Evening.

According to the revival of interest
in the polo team since it has been
strengthened, recently, there will be a
crowd al City hall, this evening, to see
the game between the Augustus and
the LewiStons. With the two second
PUSHES there is no reason why Augusta
will not give her followers a chance to
exercise their vocal powers. Hadley is
said to be putting up great game at
second rush for a part of the game.
and Jimmy Dawson is known to be a
good man. At Bath, Monday night,
Hadley played in his old time form.
The addition of Furbush to the team
has worked wonders. Gay will be seen
in the Lewiston uniform in all prob
ability.
The line up of the two teams will be
as follows: Augusta, Houghton. Had
ley and Dawson, rushers; O'Hara,
c.; Furbush, h. b.; and O'Malley, e.
Lewiston, Foster and Gay, rushers;
Miller, G.: Hayes, h. b.; and Phelan, g.
The preliminary game between the
amateurs will be between the Valleys
and the Cushnocs.

An Excellent Discourse.

On invitation of Superintendent Sam
born and the Catholic members of the
Insane hospital staff, Rev. Father
Doherty held Catholic services at the
hospital, last Sunday. This is the first
held there and the departure from the
regular custom was very pleasing.
Father Doherty took his full choir ovel
cellent music. The discourse was eX-
cellent and was greatly appreciated by
all. Father Doherty goes to the hos
pb-al whenever called by Superintend-
ent Sanborn. and usually visits his peo-
pie there at least once week.
