People keep right or eating and drink
Ing in summer time. They wear clothes
not so many, perhaps, but more
changes-in summer; in fact, except for
necessary changes owing to the higher
temperature, they do practically the
same things in summer that they do in
winter. They also buy goods. The
merchant who will keep his advertise
ments as interesting as he possibly can
who will advertise seasonable goods at
right prices-finds his trade holding on
remarkably well. If every advertiser
would impress on his mind the fact
that his advertising space is for the pur-
pose of telling the public the news of his
store, he would realize the absurdity of
allowing his summer advertising to
lapse. Suppose the newspapers were to
cease publication in summer on the
ground that nobody reads in hot weather
wouldn't there be howl. Human
nature is the same the year around-its
needs are just as great at one time as
another, and the merchant who is shrewd
enough to appreciate this fact is the one
who will advertise steadily and per.
sistently, wherever the mercury may
be.-Michigan Tradesman.

RELIEF OF THE PORTO RICANS.
Dispatches from Gov.-Gen. Dayi.
Giving Additional Details OF
the Havoc Wrought.

Washington, Aug. 1.-Two dis
patches from Gov.-Gen. Davis of Porto
Rico, giving additional details of the
fearful havoc wrought by the hurri-
cane of last week, were received at the
war department yesterday. They
were Immediately sent to Secretary
Root, who already had taken measures
for dispatching relief to the people of
the island. The secretary expects the
transport Mcpherson with a large
quantity of rice and beans will leave
New York to-day and this viii be fol-
lowed by other vessels as fast as ar
rangements can be made for sending
supplies. He thinks it is the duty of
the government to make provision for
feeding the people until the aid volun-
tarily given by the citizens of the
country reaches them, and he will ex
haust every means at his disposal to
this end. The secretary contemplates
supplementing the appeal made last
week to the mayors to assist in rails
ing subscriptions and to-day will issue
al appeal to the governors of the
states with a view to arousing general
interest in the relief work. The dis
patches received from Gen. Davis were
sent to the president at Lake Cham
plain last night.

A FAIR DEMONSTRATION.
They Were Satisfied the ThinE Could
BE Done, but by Some
One Else.

Mark Twain and his friend, Rev. Joseph
FL. Twitchell, once planned bicycle ride
from Hartford, Conn. (their home), 10
Boston, and wrote beforehand to, an ac-
uuaintance in the latter city, telling Nm
their line of route and what time he mlgns
expect to see them arrive. The appointed
time was an ideal one for a long, run, ana
the two friends started quite early IN the
morning. But neither of them was accus-
toned to long rides, so after II or 10 mnIes
had been ridden, it became apparent tnat
each of the riders was waiting Tor the oth-
er to say something. Finally Twain sald, as
they came in sight of the railway station IN
small town they had entered: Let's take
the train the rest of the way.
Of course Mr.. Twitchel agreed, ana SO
the acquaintance in Boston was surprised
by seeing the two friends walk up to his
door about one O'Clock in the afternoon. he
had not expected them till evening, but he
greeted them warmly, and addressing Mr..
Twitchell, said: ''Well, you made pretty
good time, didn't you?"
''Oh, fairly good time for novlees' was
the reply. .e,s,I
asked of Mr.. Clemens.
about seven a. m"
s'What, you don't mean to say that you
have ridden all the way from Hartford to
Boston on your bicycles!
no" replied Mark Twain, "but we rode
far enough to demonstrate that it could be
done."-Detroit Free Press.

Manila, Aug. 14.-A reconnaissance,
Saturday, by troops of Gen. Samuel b.
". Young's brigade, with the object OF
discovering the Whereabouts of the
enemy near San Mateo. northeast OF
the San Juan reservoir, about ten
miles from Manila, resulted in the oc-
.upation of San Mateo.
The American loss was three killed
md 13 wounded, including lieuten-
mt of the Twenty-first infantry.
The Americans approached San Ma
tec in three columns. Maj. Cronin.
with $50 men of the Twenty-ffth, adj
RANGED from Novaliches, five miles
west of San Mateo; Capt. Rivers, with
100 men of the Fourth cavalry, and
Capt. Parker, formerly lieutenant-col-
onel of the Twelfth New York regi-
nent, with 2so men of the Twenty-iirst
md Twenty-fourth cavalry approached
n two columns from the south.
Maj. Cronin experienced many diff
the enemy strongly intrenehed on the
3ulties, arising from the condition of
ton with Capt. Rivers west of San
Mateo, as had been planned.
Capt. Rivers, advancing, took an out
post of the enemy two miles southwest
Of San Mateo. He then encountered
strong resistance among the hills, the
enemy firing from excellent positions.
Having failed to connect with Maj.
Cronin, and seeing that the town was
already occupied by the Americans,
Capt. Rivers withdrew, covering his
withdrawal by heavy volley. He lost
sergeant killed.
Capt. Parker, on advancing, found
the enemy strongly entrenehed on the
far side of some rice fields, about a
mile wide and covered with deep mud.
! Pushing forward rapidly he routed the
Filipinos, after 40 minutes fighting,
and then continued the march upon
Mateo, which he entered, without seri.
Gus resistance, about half-past one in
the afternoon.
Maj. Cronin entered the town about
half-past four. The Americans still
occupy the place. Our men were ex-
hausted by the heavy marching. Twen-
tv-three of the enemy are known to
have been killed.
This is the first action in which Col.
Burt's colored troops participated.
They behaved well, their leaders hay-
ing difficulty in holding them back.
Gen. Young accompanied Capt. Par
ker's column and was under fire
throughout the engagement. 1t is es-
timated that the enemy numbered be-
tween 500 and 400 men.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE West In
dian hurricane appears to be gRdual-
ly decreasing in strength and the
chances are that it will spend itself
before making much further progress.
The weather bureau gave out this
news last night: The movement of the
hurricane is apparently very slow and
even at Jacksonville the velocity of the
wind this morning was but IL miles
an hour. The opinion of the officials
Is that by the time Charleston is
reached no more than an ordinary
wind will be blowing.
Wilmington and Norfolk have taken
down their hurricane signals.
The storm now appears to be on the
east coast of Florida, and the latest re-
ports from Jupiter dated at four
o'clock this afternoon indicate a pref
ty severe blow at that place. 1t is now
south of Jacksonville, Indicating a
slow northward movement since last
hight
The bureau has had no WIRE reports
