THE DEPARTMENT STORE.

That interesting periodical, Self Cul- ture, discusses department stores in its latest number. It finds them to be really a restoration of the early order of affairs, rather than something en- tirely new in mercantile operations The stores of the early colonists were general ones, including in their goods q variety of articles. and the division into specialties for sale came later. It traces the success of the department store as it now is to something more than the convenience of satisfying all ones wants under one roof Another factor of this it finds in the large amount of advertising which these es- tablishments maintain. Instead of waiting for the public to come to them, they have invited it. through the me dium of the public press, to come and view the bargains displayed; and. as bargains have a potent attraction for all women, the response is enthusi astic." Specialist stores have succeeded in the same way. The instances are few. if any, where extensive advertis ing, skillfully conducted, did not bring to those who employed it prosperous business.-BOstOn Herald.

Phoenix. 16; Fl Paso, Il.

Phoenix, 16; Fl Paso, Il.
 The first of a series of three games between the Fl Paso and the Phoenix teams took place yesterday afternoon at the Phoenix park. A large crowd witnessed the game and the rooters were in evidence from the first. The visitors put up a strong game and in the first inning they secured five hits off Jones, and eight runs, mostly on errors of the infield. The strength of the visitors in the first was largely caused by a corresponding weakness from lack of practice work on the part of the home team. Although Jones started out poorly, he got his nerve in the second and never lost it through out the game. The visitors lost Heck, their catcher, in the second and Me Donald was substituted. Heck had his right hand badly injured. Donovan, who was in the box for the visitors, was replaced by Dunn, and the game was even stronger than it would have been had not Mcdonald appeared on the scene. Although sick, he caught magnificent game and made but few errors Hogan's work behind the bat for the home team was up to the high standard of excellence for which he has gained a reputation in the south west. Jones struck out five men and made several put-outs. His work was very effective.
 Mcdonald will catch tomorrow game, when Jones, the southpaw of the visiting team, will be seen on the rub Der. He formerly played with the AL buquerque team. Corcoran will pitch for the Phoenix team, and Hogan will be placed behind the bat. This game promises to be a hard fought battle, for Fl Paso came here to win, and the result of yesterdays game prevented Manager Hart from sending a dispatch which he wrote at the end of the first We win easy.''
 Lamkin and Jones both scored twice in the first, and the other runs were made by Young, Brown, Heck and Don ovan. An error at first and hits that were not fielded were responsible for the large number of runs. Young and Jones each brought in two men by safe hits. Brawley took in a high one from Dunn's stick and this timely stop put an end to very poor opening of what afterward proved a good game. In Phoenix's half Morse tried to make
