BIG IMPROVEME ENTS
Made on the Second Floor Of NJ
0'EeiI & Co.'s Store.

| The large cloak, fur, skirt and
manufacturing departments on the
second floor of the NJ. O'Neil & Com
pany's store. are undergoing marked
improvements at present. In the
sales rooms the floors are being car
peted. and here and there touches
added that not only provide conven-
fence, but also give an air of beauty
and style to the entire room.
Under the efficient management of
| w. T. Tobin, who has the oversight
of the entire second floor, the busi-
ness has increased within the past
few years and so rapidly that it has
been found necessary to add to this
department genuine and modernly
equipped manufacturing department
from which anything from the most
stylish and costly garments for wo-
men and girls down to the plainest
costume may be turned out at the
lowest popular prices.
This fall Mr.. Tobin expects to have
! 80 persons, men and women, working
in the manufacturing department.
/ Work. in this department will be
under the supervision of thoroughly
competent tailor and tailoress, who
are originatOrs and designers, having
had many years experience in New
York, Chicago and Cleveland.
The machines in use in manufac-
turing departments are all of the
most improved Singer pattern. All
are run by an electric motor, the
electricity being produced by NJ.
O'Neil q Company's own dynamo
located in the basement of the build
! ing. Machines with single needles
make 2,800 stitches minute. There
is a double stitching machine in the
department which makes $500
stitches per minute and shortly a
machine will be put in that will have
five needles and make l4,000 stitches
every minute.
Visitors to the second floor should
not forget to notice particularly the
skirt department. Here skirts are
made from the latest French models
direct from Paris, showing the very
| latest creations in tailored suits,
evening costumes and street dresses.
! Customers buying dress goods at the
NJ. O'Neil & Company store may
have the material made into skirts,
or other articles of apparel, in the
manufacturing department, where
the work will be done at the very
lowest rates. The style of workman
ship on women's suits or skirts will
beSaual to that of skirts formerly
ssS1, at this store at $47.
Visitors are always welcome in
any of the departments of the big
store, but the design of this article is
to impress upon the readers the rad
ical changes and improvements be-
ing made on the second floor. Mr..
Tobin is man of much experience
in the mercantile business. He has
been with the NJ. O'Neil d Com
pany's store for 81 years, starting in
as cash boy June %, 1878. For 10
years he was in the Office depart
ment, but since the death of Mr.. /.
J. Dyas, former partner in the
store, January, 1892, has had charge
of the position made vacant by Mr..
Dyas' death.

MURDEROUS
Assault Made on An
Unknown Man.
Found In an Empty Box car---Head
Badly Cut.

About o'clock Friday at Sterling,
O., Conductor Brumbaugh on Erie
train No. 95, found ina N.Y.L.E.&W.
box car No. 23.2o3, an unknown man
in an unconscious condition.
The car was standing on the tracks
at Sterling. Every indication points
towards an attempt having been
made to murder the man, as his head
was badly bruised and his face was
cut in places. By his side lay a
coupling pin which was covered with
blood.
The man was reasonably well
dressed. He was turned over to the
township authorities at Sterling.
When last heard from the man had
not yet recovered consciousness, and
it it is thought that death will soon
follow.
As yet nothing has been discover
ed ny which the man may be identi-

In an English newspaper OF the date
of Jan. is. 1897, appears the following:
"John Hetherington. haberdasher. of
the Strand, was arraigned before the
lord mayor yesterday on the charge
of breach Of the peace and melting
riot, and was required to give bond
in the sum of $500. 1t was in evil

In New Zealand there is a peculiar
kind OF parrot found. which does not
seem to exist in any other place. The
natives call 1t the Ikea" 1t inhabits
only South Island, in mountainous re-
gions, and was formerly vegetable
and insect-eating bird, but when sheep
were introduced into the country, 1t
began to frequent the various stations.
especially where sheep had been killed.
and 1t was observed to feed upon the
offal. Later on 1t acquired the strange
and Objectionable habit of destroying
live sheep, for which purpose a number
of these parrots band together and
hunt out a weakly member OF the flock
which they worry and torment till it
falls to the ground. Then the vora-
cious creatures attack 1t or the flank,
where the skin is thinnest. and even
before the animal is dead they are de-
vouring the kidney fat. which they
seems to prefer to all other food. This
seems to be one OF the most remarka-
Bile instances known OF a sudden
change of habit.

and Improbable as well. Now, how
ever the conditions appear 10 be en-
tirely different. If this property
should develop as it is expected 10 do,
there is little doubt but what other
rich veins will be located in this inn
mediate vicinity. Fine specimens Of
gold bearing quartz have frequently
been found near here, but as they
were considered to be but pieces Of
float, no particular attention was
paid to them. The concensus of
opinion OF mining men generally is
that gold will ultimately be found
here in paying quantities, but that at
present the cost Of milling is too
great. 1t would seem, however, that
with the present facilities for getting
machinery on the ground that the
vein located in 62-16 could be worked
with profit, and the development of
this property will be watched with
interest. Tower Journal.

Gold In 62-I6.

Although the report published in
last weeks issue of the Journal as re-
CARDS the gold vein discovered q 62-l6
met with no little ridicule and doubt,
later developments go to prove that
the strike is far richer than even the
parties interested ever dared dream
of. Several pieces of rock taken from
various portions Of the vein have re-
Gently assayed, showing an average
richness of s26 the ton. The bits
of quartz from which the estimate
was made from were knocked off at
random, no care being exercised in
selecting exceptionally rich speci-
mems, and tue owners therefore feel
very jubilant over the result. While
it is not expected that the vein will
develop phenomenal results, there is
no doubt but what it can be operated
with good profit. Owing to its loca-
ton, the necessary machinery, sup
plies, ETC., can be easily gotten in and
it is claimed that even though the
average richness was but S. to the
ton, the property could be made a
good revenue producer.
