Why They Advertise.

There are advertisers and adver-
tisers. Some may advertise as mat
ter of charity-to help the editor get
his bread. Others advertise to make
the paper show up well for the town;
that's good motive. Some advertise
because the paper is a .home enter
prise, benefit to the town. Then
there is the wide awake, business man
who is out after the dollars and gem
orally gets them. He advert ises be-
cause it pays him, he makes it part
of his business; he takes a certain
space in his home paper, fills it up
with something that will catch trade
If times are dull he gives more atten-
tion to advertising. He gets up
something new, surprising, always
however, to the truth, and never mis-
leading his customers. The people
read that mans advertisements q well
as the local columns of the paper.
They have confidence in what he
says: they go to the store to trade.
and, by courteous treatment, he holds
their trade. Advertising in any or the
above ways is commendable in mer-
chant, but it is a necessary branch Of
his business in some way, and if ne
elected can only result in loss,-Vir-
ginian.

Miss Crows Lecture.

The ILLUSTRATED lecture of foreign
travel by Miss Ada Marie Crow ut the
Opera house Monday evening was a
decided fiZZle as far as audience was
concerned. The lecture was one OF
the most instructive it has been our
pleasure to hear on this particular
subject. Scotland, and the stereop-
tican views were remarkably clear
and distinct. Miss Crow is a good
speaker and can entertain her aud
fence The lecture was interspersed
with choice Scotch ballads by Miss
,Susanne Mckay, whom our people
will remember as having appeared
here last summer with the Hoelscher
concert company under the auspices
of the /. O. o. f. Miss McKay's Sc
lections we're well received. The one
regretable feature OF the whole enter
tainment was the small house.

County Club Organized,

The ST. Louis county Republican
club met Wednesday and elected
officers. The meeting was harmon
ious ond the anti-Merris sentiment
which has been reported to exist did
not crop out. Capt. d. e. Stevens was
elected president Of the club and ]. B.
Middlecoff secretary. After speeches
by the newly elected officers and
others, the club adopted the follow
ing resolutions by unanimous vote:
Resolved, that we commend the
wise, patriotic and statesmanlike
manner of the present administration
in conducting the present difficult
negotiations between Spain and the
United States, in its efforts to settle
the pending difficulties in d peaceable
and satisfactory manner: and that we
have full confidence in the patriot
ism, wisdom and ability of the presi-
dent to preserve the dignity and hon
or of the United States.
Further resolved, that we are in
favor of adopting postal savings
banks in the United States as safe
and convenient repositories of the
peoples money.

Minnesota Iron Company.

The Marine Review says: A quart
erly dividend of II per cent payable
April15 has probably had consider
able TO do with recent advances in the
value of shares Of the Minnesota Iron
Co. 1t is stated that the company
did not originally intend to begin pay
ing dividends until July, but the
year 1897 was profitable one and
justified such an action at an early
date. The large expenses for improve
ments for lake steamers for several
years past have all been made out of
earnings. and there was no reason
why stockholders should not begin TO
receive part of the surplus earnings.
There is little doubt that business
this year will be larger than last, as
far as sales of ore are concerned and
the profit per ton viii also be larger.

POOR TAYLOR.
Track Officials Refuse Him
Use of Their Course.

Maj Taylor, Worcesters colored
cyclist, has troubles of his own staring
him in the face, these days. BY break
ing away from the Cyclists Union and
gaining L. A. w. favor once again, he
incurred the unanimous hatred of ev-
cry one of his fellow circuit chasers.
AT the present time he is in Philadel-
phia with a small-sized army of pace
makers. He went there. as has al
ready been stated in The Spy, with the
intention of lowering a number of the
hort-distance records. The famous
Willow Grove track was to be used by
him for these trials against time. 1t
now appears, however that the track
officials, true to their announced deter
mination to forever bar those who re-
fused to ride at their last l.. A w.
meet, are not inclined to allow Taylor
to make the track his training head
quarters. Matters may be patched up
satisfactorily, but from present indica-
lions, it would appear that Taylor must
change his base of operations if he
would add to the lauT Is already won.
Taylor went out to the track last
Tuesday. He saw the officials; told
them the object of his present visit to
the Quaker City; he asked the courte-
sizes OF the IraCk De eXIenQeQ MIN ana
his pace. The track managers emphat-
ically refused to allow him to train
there. Finding this difficulty confront
ing him, he has now made application
for the use of Woodside track in the
same city. His troubles with track
managers have prevented him from
doing any training thus far, and it is
likely, in consequence, that his trials,
originally scheduled for next week,
win not take place until the week after.

REED IN COURT.
He Pleads Not Guilty and His Gases Con-
tinued Until Monday.

In the superior criminal court, before
Judge Bond, yesterday, John Reed, the
well known bunco steerer was brought
into court on a writ of habeas corpus,
to plead to two indictments, and to
both he entered a plea Of not guilty.
One indictment was for larceny in Sc
curing $4,000 from Comfort Thompson
an aged and respected farmer of Tx
bridge, and the other for assault on
officers A. d. Parker and William Han
ma of Harvard, when they attempted to
arrest him. Colonel William A. Gile
appeared for Reed, and the cases were
assigned for trial Monday morning, but
as the case Of Max Kulwinski is yet
unfinished, the cases will probably not
be reached before Monday afternoon
or Tuesday.
The case against Max Kulwinski of
Fitchburg for burning q house and for
burning a store, occupied the entire
day. The government finished its case,
and Kulwinski'S witnesses testified the
remainder of the session, still addition
al witnesses to appear at the resump-
ton Of the case Monday at 10 o'clock.
Kate Lavelle of Clinton was fined $S5.

Clifford, Halpine and Thompson hang
ing on close behind. It was evident all
the way out, that St John was setting
a faster pace than he could possibly
hold, and so it proved. Just as the
field reached the turn, Clifford passed
st. John. and turned first, with Halpine
third, and Thompson fourth. The other
starters came struggling along at inter-
walls. The turning stake found some
men at least a third of mile behind
the leaders.
st. John had not covered a quarter
of a mile of the trip home when he sud
denly stopped and walked for at least
200 yards to catch his wind. Then he
broke into a run again and finished the
distance, but. of course. he had fallen
quite Always behind. The relative posi-
tons of Clifford, Halpine and Thomp-
son were never changed coming home.
Clifford maintained his lead. and dur
ing the first mile of the honieward half
of the run actually gained on Halpine
and Thompson, who logged at Happiness
heels. At Chadwick square Halpine
began quickening his clip, and it looked
coming up the boulevard grade, as if
he might beat out Clifford. But his
squirt of speed did not last, and Hal
pine had to content himself with sec
ond, couple of hundred yards behind
Thompson did not try to pass Hal
pine, and scored third place and 10
points.
Quite a little distance behind Thomp-
son came Moran, captain of the high
school track team. He is not accus-
toned to long distance running, his
forte being at distance less than a
half mile. He has had enough eXper-
fence in running, however, to realize
that they We're going too fast on the
way out, and so dropped behind.
Coming home Moran was running fas-
ter. than any other starter, and NOW
ed down several men. But Clifford Hal
pine and Thompson We're too far ahead
and the captain finished fourth, so
yards or so behind Thompson. The
other men struggled in by one. or by
two. Although the run was interest
ing, there was not a single exciting fin
ish.

'TODAY'S GAMES.
Cross-Tech at Oval
Academy at Andover.

This afternoon at o'clock, the an
nual foot ball game between the Holy
Cross and Worcester Polytechnic teams
will be played at the Worcester oval.
No local college contest arouses keener
rivalry than this game. and there is
evidently no exception this year The
two local institutions first met on the
gridiron two years ago. the Tech men
winning by a small score. Last season
the boys from Holy Cross We're strong
er than the Tech men, and won the
game by one TOUCHDOWN. Today each
side is anxious to score a victory. The
elevens viii go upon the field some-
what handicapped, for each is in ra-
Their crippled condition. Up at Holy
Cross, the players have not vet fully
recovered from their hard game at An
dover on Wednesday. Coach Connors
gave the team its customary practice
yesterday noon but the work was
light and devoted largely TO signal
wSrk. The team VIII line up as ct
Andover, with the exception of Mer-
Ger, who will be replaced by Baldwin.
Tech will undoubtedly put her regu-
lar team in the field. But Two Of the
men are still suffering from injuries;
two more have not been able to practice
for couple of weeks. These things,
of course, tend to lessen Techs chances
of victory. Wood and Birge, the two
ends and two of the best men on the
eleven, have not been in a game since
Tech played Tufts. Birge has lust re-
turned from a tour of duty with the
Yale battery, While Wood has been pre-
vented from practieing by badly
wrenched back.
Harry l.. Dadmun and Walter B.
Gage, who was quarter on Harvard
varsity one year, will act as the OLD
Gals. The Worcester Academy eleven
leaves this morning for Andover to
play it's annual game with the Phillips
team. Since the Harvard freshman
game, Coach Gammons has heen put
ting his players through very stiff
work, but the faults that cropped out
against Harvard have not been fully
eradicated, and are likely 10 prove
costly again today.
The w. A. C. team, under it's reor-
ganized management will play the
Portland Athletic Club in Portland this
afternoon. The Worcester team went
to Portland from Boston by boat last
night and expect to return home to-
morrow evening. They will line up
for this afternoons match as follows;
Becton l. e., Knibbs !. t., f. Thomas l.
G., Brown c., G. Thomas +. g., DAILY r.
b., Davis T. e., Howe q. b., Rovier /. h.

STOCK MARKET.
A Large and Well Distributed
Business in Wall Street.
Iron and Steel Were Among the Con-
spicuous Movements.

New York, oct. 2S.-The stock mar
ket took on today many of the char
acteristics of a bull campaign in full
force Business was large and ex-
ceedingly well distributed, many of
the usually inactive stocks being
brought forward into the movement,
while the market was much less DOM
mated by the movement Of the spe-
cialties which, however, continued
very active especially Sugar and To-
bacco. The former stock was less vio-
lent in it's fluctuations than on yester-
day, and although it advanced several
times, it met more stock than it could
carry 1t ended the day unchanged.
Tobacco, on the other hand, after
fractional decline, surged strongly up
wards the extreme rise being nearly
five points The rise was coupled with
rumors of the flotation OF the new
Plug Tobacco Company and the taking
in of many large competitors in that
field.
Another conspicuous movement was
that in the iron and steel stocks which
was led by the dealings in the securities
of the New Federal Steel Company
when issued. Their stocks were at
one time IA to ga above last night.
The certificates of the Minnesota Iron
Company, with the cash payment add
ed, giving the right of entrance to the
federal company, sold at 191, an adj
vance of four points, and the Illinois
Steel certificates closed at 50, a gain OF
two points.
Securities Of other iron and steel
companies showed strength to less
extent.
Brooklyn Rapid Transit was notably
strong on talk of absorption OF the
Nassau Electric rising over 6I, and
Metropolitan Street Railway advanced
three points. Manhattan was in strong
contrasA with an extreme decline OF
two points, selling down to 50.
The Edison Illuminating Company Of
| New York gained il IL points, with
no news to explain the rise. The Rub
| Der stocks We're rather on talk of an
| opposition company. Peoples Gas rose
point in connection with the taking
over of the Manhattan Oil Company
| Speculation in railroad stocks was
active, and varied, the grangers lead
| ing in point of activity. Reports OF
| one or two southwestern roads, show
| ing the increased earnings more than
| eaten up by enlarged operating eX-
penses, were a drag on that group, and
| there was some slight heaViness
amongst the trunk lines.
| Prices are as a rule higher however.
There was a marked diminution in ac-
| tivity in the latter part of the Gay, and
the room traders took profits, reducing
the days net gains below the figure
| of the extreme advances.
