FORGING TO THE FRONT.

The Chapman Mercantile Co.. of
American Fork are quietly forging TO
the front among the ranks of the best
mercantile houses In the Went. The
Hon. James Cripman, now president of
the Utah National Bank, and who Is
also president OF the Chapman Mercan-
tile Co, and sole owner OF the bank of
American Fork, commenoed business in
1879 on smaA scale in a frame shack.
Through HIS Wise and careful business
management he has schooled his sons
In the same line OF work, and his BUSH
ness has grown right along until 1892,
when the firm was no more known as
James Chapman, but the Chapman Mer-
candle Go. They have erected some
spacious brick and stone buildings, and
have their business arranged in depart
menls with a manager over each.
Every department, via, grocery, hard
ware, clothing store, dry goods, harness
and lumber yard, Is filled and running
over with good things, and bargains
can be found on every hand. They have
a ground floor space OF S0x2l0 feet, and
therefore have excellent facilities for
displaying goods, In connection with
their mercantile business, they have

-four roller mills south Of Salt Lake
CITY Their trade Is not confined to
Utah, but extends through Idaho. Mon
tana, Nevada and Colorado. They have
thirty-fiye to forty regular hands and
handle a great deal OF merchandise in a
years time. They run close TO the
quarter Of million mark last year, and
expect TO out reach II this year. The
reason they have such an extended
trade and handle so much merchandise
Is due to the fact Of their willingness
70 sell on such a small margin; also the
ialr and honest treatment they give 10
their customers They are satisfied TO
do a great deal OF work for small
profit. They have recently put in the
latest cash and package carrier system

doing business right and prompt. Peo-
PIE who contemplate visiting confer
encce would save money by stopping of
a day In American Fork, and visit the
various departments of this mammoth
up TO date business house. Those who
cannot stop off would do well TO write
them for price lists.

HIGHBINDERS
ARE STILL ACTIVE

The Advertiser reported yesterday
morning the blackmail attempt of a
number of highbinders on a former
opium den keeper. The latter came TO
the police station in a hack to ask for
police protection. and three officers
were sent to his premises. remaining
there all night The highbinders were
evidently On the lookout for just such
a proceeding, and did Eot make further
visits there It is known that these
Iawless gangs throw out spies in all di-
rections, not the least of their duties
being TO keep a close watch on the
movements of police officers OF the
special detail at the station.
Yesterday morning the gang renewed
its threats against the opium den
keeper, and warned him that they
would repeat their visit to his residence
last night The Chinese at once came
to the station house, where he had
long consultation With the deputy sher-
if. The latter promised him the same
protection as on the night before. The
Chinese is beginning to show signs Of
the strain under which he is held, dark
rings appearing around his eyes, the re-
suit of sleeplessness.
Three nights ago this same gang
raided his house, all OF them in dis
guise. Some wore masks Of the hideous
Chinese type. concealing their identity
to the best of their cunning. They are
bent on doing harm, and for the time
being have singled out the opium den
keeper as their victim. The police have
several complaints from other Chinese
who aye being subjected TO extortionate
threats
