OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
Latest Developments In an Affair of
Commercial Importance.

New York. Feb. 5, 1900.
very great deal has been said and
printed about Liquid Air" and the
wonder has been that up to the present
time no one has, so far as the general
public is aware, succeeded in introduce
ing 1t as an active commercial agent,
so TO speak. 1t has been looked upon
rather as a curiosity than as some
thing of real commercial Importance.
At least that is what l had supposed
until few days ago. But just re-
Gently 1T has been demonstrated TO me
and to many others here in New York,
that the marvellous inventions of Pro-
fessor Chas. +. Tripler are being actu-
ally put to the most important and
practical uses. At this very moment
at the Tripler Works and Laboratory,
in West seth street, this city, Liquid
Air" is being made in large quantities
daily at a very small cost and it is
being sold to all the leading hospitals
in Greater New York" where its use
has already proven of the highest
value.
Its use is an economical power for
navigation, for stationary engines, and
for all purposes requiring large and
cheap power. is fully assured because
of the extreme cheapness with which
it can be made by the Tripler process,
and already very many large users Of
power are inquiring Of the 1ripler
/ Liquid Air Co. as to making arrange
ments for its use at their works. Nu-
merous applications for such privileges
TO use ii are coming in to the Com
rany's New York office, No. IL Bway,
daily. But these gentlemen have de-
cided to not consider these PROPOSE
lions until after the installation of the
plants which they are now putting up
at the Paris Exposition and in London,
Eng.
Applications from every state in the
union as well as from many foreign
countries. have been received by the
| Parent Co. here, for permission to or
ganize local companies to make and
sell Tripler Liquid Air, and it is the
policy OF the Parent Co. to dispose of
their rights in the several states and
abroad TO companies of high financial
standing, retaining a large controlling
interest in each subsidiary company.
Thus the stockholders Of the Parent
Co will become the owners of ma
.ority of the stock in all these minor
companies, and receive enormous divi-
dends in consequence. This is the
same policy that was pursued so sue
cessfully by the Parent Bell Telephone
Co.. and all the world knows the pc
cuniary results.
The use of Liquid Air" for refriger-
ating purposes alone will bring in
many millions to the Tripler Co., as
every refrigerating plant will event
ually adopt il because of its superior
ity in every way to that of the present
ways of refrigeratlng, and its economy
as well.
A limited amount of stock will be
offered to the public, in a few days, and
subscriptions will be received by the
Parent Co. for shares at s. per share.
l really do not know Of a more con-
servative investment than this, with
the prospect of so large and so certain
dividends. 1t is a rare chance.

eye TO where greenhouse and immacu-
late dairy and carriage sheds stand.
The dollhouse is stocked with the rarest
of plants, and is one of the points OF
interest which always attracts visitors.
The stable wherein is kept the famous
chariot in which Washington rode is
another attraction for the excursion
lists, and although the coach is fast
dropping into n state of dilapidation,
and is so shaky that no one is allowed
to touch it, it remains point Of great
interest nevertheless. Down near the
steamboat landing, where the crowds of
sightseers are landed from the river
steamers, is the tomb wherein are in

his wife. the caskets encased in mar

The interior of the mansion is filled

there, and from papers in his own
handwriting to the bed on which he
died, mementoes of Washington are

The birthday Lesson.

TCdays a holiday, you know,
And so we children. just for fun,
Said we would dress like old-time
folks,
And I'd be Martha Washington.
We searched through all the garret's
chests
And found, among forgotten boards,
The stiffest silks, and old brocades,
And rufTled caps and furnished
swords.
Andwhen at last we all were Crossed,
We went to my great-grandma' s
room.
She smiled and colored with delight,
Until her cheeks were all in bloom.
But somehow, her blue eyes grew
grave,
AS each girl told her chosen name,
And finally she gently said,
1T is a very pretty game.
"Yet take care, children, that you
wear,
Not only clothes of ancient days,
But manners of those gracious danes
Who won all by their gentle ways.
THE GROW beneath your powdered
hair
Is very fair, my great-grandchild ;
So keep your thoughts; and let your
eyes
Reflect a heart both true and mild.
This hand which holds q painted fan
Must work, that tired hands may rest;
Since Martha Washington, we know,
Could spin and weave at wants
request.
1.-THE feet where buckled slippers
shine
May some day tread thorny road.
Hold fast the pictures of brave lives,
And never falter with the load"
Then dear great-grandma blessed us
all,
And down the hall our steps we
turned.
1t is a holiday, it's true,
But every girl her lesson learned

AVOID DANGER.
The Danger of Catarrh Ointments Thns
Contain Mercury.

This journal, although more partlcu-
larly devoted to all that interests
finance, commerce and manufactur-
ing, is nevertheless always awake TO
the need and wants of it's readers, let
the subject be what 1t may. We were
asked to investigate and report upon
the merits of the various catarrh RENE
dies on the market The production
of preparations of injurious compost
ton cannot, unfortunately, be stopped
or restricted at present, or until our
state legislatures can be induced to
pass such suitable and stringent laws
as will effectually prevent their ap-
pearance on the market. In the mean
time the people must look out for
themselves. In this matter, we have
made most careful and painstaking
investigation, realizing the confidence
that would be placed in our reply. Our
medical staff employed to make such
Investigations were most favorably
impressed with the preparation known
as Halls catarrh cure, manufactured
by l.. j. Cheney & Co. OF Toledo, Ohio,
and agreed that this peerless remedy
deserves our highest Endorsement.
Many of the catarrh remedies on tho
market contain mercury, which de-
stroys the sense of smell and deranges
the whole system when entering
through the mucous surfaces. From
analysis we found that Halls catarrh
cure contains no mercury. 1t is taken
internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces Of the sys-
TEN. We have no interest whatever
in this matter beyond faithfully serv-
ing our readers, and as our indorse-
ment is extended without reward OF
any kind, and is wholly unsolicited by
this company, and will be received
with the full credence that all our
statements have met with for the past
eighteen years.-Southern Review or

the monument, and the grafton was

In 1872 nothing was left of the orig

a few crumbling fragments. At that
time a movement was started to re-
store the monument and in 1888 it
was rededicated, having been raised
to height of fifty feet and surround
ed by an iron framework and balcony.
The site of the monument is so ex-
posed, however. that even the restored
