A Successful" Life In Now York.

The current life of the average New

business man who earns a salary Of
~, 400 year by the exercise of routine
fidelity is admirably defined by J. p.
Mowbray in 1.-The Making of Country

John Denison was within a year Of
being thirty, and twenty-five years
more OF getting on the car at seven in
the morning and climbing back at five
in the evening, going to the same coy
room, kissing his wife and baby in the
same way, paying the same three
quarters OF his salary to the landlord,
the grocer and the tailor, and nursing
a contented mind by going to the Cen
trail Park on Sunday morning and the
theater on Wednesday night-this
prospect, he was beginning to feel sure.

years more. But there was no escape

step some night in jumping for an cleo

Heroic Work by a Tramp.

By the heroic act of a tramp two
residents of Jefferson were saved from
drowning in Rock river. Frank Will
hanson and his little daughter were
crossing the river when the ice sudden
ly gave way, says the Chicago Inter-
Ocean. A tramp who was walking on
the railroad track a few hundred feet
from where the accident took place
pulled off his coat and plunged into the
water after the struggling pair, who
were fast losing consciousness. The
heroic tramp was clad in Overalls and
a thin shirt when he made the plunge.
He succeeded in holding the man ana
girl above water until boats were
brought. John Buchta, who was close
to the scene at the time, also worked
energetically, and was drawn into the
water by the struggling trio. After
hard work on the part Of the rescuers
all were saved. A subscription was
taken up for the tramp, and complete
outfit of clothing was purchased for
him.

1T is NOT NEW.
wireless Teiegraphy Was Susgeste
Nearly Two Centuries Ago

Wireless Telegraphy Was Suggested
Nearly Two Centuries Ago.
Wireless telegraphy is wonderful
enough in itself without any under
taking to make it thousandfold more
so by flights of the Imagination, says
the Louisville COurier-Journal. There
is no help for it that imagination will
busy itself with scientific problems as
well as others. Cases are not wanting
where an imagination which has re-
ceived a scientific training has made
curious approximations to future dis
cOveries and occasionally facilitated
them. Even without scientific aid the
imagination of writer's has occasion
ally anticipated discoveries in a gen
eral way, but without in the slightest
degree facilitating it. There are some
interesting examples of this. For in
stance. the acknowledgement of Dec.
5, 1868, an English paper, mentions
that there had recently appeared in
American journals a report that two
telegraph operators had been able to
communicate with each other without
intervening wires. But the most curl
GUS mention of this kind is found In
the Spectator of I'LL, where reference
is made to a lOadstone that when
touched with two needles impaired to
them such quality that when one of
them moved the other, however far
separated. would move in the same
way. Two friends. each Of whom had
one OF these needles. made deal plates
with letters on them and by the mo-
lions of the needles were enabled to
communicate with one another. This
jeu d'esprit substantially forecast wire
less telegraphy, though the way point
ed out is obviously of no value. It was
a fiction which anticipated the truth
by nearly 200 years.

AMERICAN GOODS.
Our Wares Make Inroads In Markets Of
England.

English discussion Of the American
commercial invasion continues to grow
more pointed and frank, says S. G. Nc
Farland, consul at Nottingham, in
Consular Reports. Hardly an issue OF
the leading English papers appears
without reference to American compe
tition in some line. Within the past
two years the tone of such articles has
become serious. and economic writers
are kept busy attempting to find &C
ceptable explanations for American
success. Leicester, in this consular
district, is the seat of two great in
dustries-the manufacture of boots
and shoes and of hosiery Including
underwear). A few days ago large
ported to the United States Now, not
only are there no exports, but enter
prising American firms have actually
opened retail stores there, while much
o. the machinery used is of American
make. Hosiery exports a few years ago
were very large. They are now COM
paratively small, and as shown in pre-
vlous reports, are constantly declining
In volume, and, to cap the climax, Am
erican goods are actually selling at re-
tail in this market. AS this is the very
home of the British industry, it IS not
astonishing that such fact should
come ss shock to natural British
pride, and that it's importance, as dis
closing the general trend Of trade,
should be minimized, and, as a rule.
made light OF. The leading trade organ
the Hosiery Trade Journal Of Leices-
ter-attempts in the following sugg5s-
tive article in its current number to
bring the more serious phases of the
matter to the attention of its readers:
The report from the British consul at
Philadelphia strengthens the fact that
America is making fast strides in the
manufacture of hosiery OF all kinds,
and that in the near future American
goods will be met in many markets
where same have been up to the pres
ent unknown. AS such advancement

goods, and those countries which have

This is no surmSe. for at the present

Will RuY Knit Goods Mills.

There is good authority for the state
ment that the owners Of mills manu-
featuring knit goods in the Mohawk

options on their plants to a party OF
New York capitalists The talk Of a
combination among knit goods men
has been in the wind in that section
for long time, but definite informa-

that every mill in Troy and Cohoes,
with the possible exception OF two, has
given an option and it is reported that
a majority of the stockholders in the
sixty mills of Troy, Cohoes and Am
