THEY DIDN'T ADvERTIsB.-Since
Christmas there have been ten failures
reported of concerns that made spec
ialily of goods intended for holiday
pres ents. Some OF these concerns car
ried large stocks. and were entitled to
the designation big" In one or two
instances the stocks were valued at
more than S250,000 The noticeable
thing about each of the collapsed con-
Germs is that it did not advertise in the
newspapers. The stores that did ad-
vertise were crowded with customers
from the commencement of the holiday
season to the hour of closing the night
before Christmas. They all report the
greatest holiday business in years. N.

KENTUCKY MORMONS GO
ARMED.

A dispatch from Vanceburg, KY,
says the Ii, usuol sight of members
OF religious organization going to and
from their place of worship armed with
shotguns TO protect themselves against
so-cslled "Whitecaps" was witnessed
in the Pleasant Hill ighborhood of

region that the Mormons have gained
strong foothold by their missionary
work, several Of the best citizens of the
village having been converts to the
Mormon belief. At considerable ex
pence the band bad built church,
which was about 10 be dedicated few
weeks age, when irebug applied the
torch to It, and it wss destroyed. Since
then some of the elders have been
beaten and other assaults have been
committed on the Mormons by alleged
whiiecaDs.
The Mormons say they know who
bnrned their church, which was the
only one of their faith in the State, but
they say they will not prosecute them,
wishing to avoid further trouble. Sew
eral farmers have only recently been
ordained as elders in the church. Last
week Elders Charles Hauch and j. I
Pubble received notice through the
mails that if they did not quit giving
shelter TO and aiding the "Mormons
from Utah', who had been stopping
with these men for several days they
would be severely dealt with. This

any trouble, but will protect themselves
from violence.
