 s0utside of the college youths with practical education there is room in plenty in the railroad business for honest, bright and active young men who can absorb the myriad matters connected with the railroad, so that we may recruit from their ranks the agents, the trainmasters. the aids to the chiefs of departments and similar places that pay larger salaries than two-thirds of the doctors, lawyers and educators can hope to get. Every rail- road manager is on the lookout for men who can aceeptably fill the higher places in the service, and the supply is so much less than the demands that the roads are constantly bidding against one another for the services of men who have distinguished them selves in some one branch of the busi- ness. If you desire proof of it look At the number of young men who hold re- sponsible places in the various roads. There is need for more of them and when you find one you must keep boost ing A5s salary along nicely or some other road will be eoaxing him away.
 T know of one instance where A young man of 30, who began in the sup ply department of a western road six years ago, has changed employers four times in he last three years, each time with a big slice of additional salary. and is now chief contracting agent for one of the biggest roads that does business out of Chicago. He had business head on him and industry in addition. Every road could furnish you a dozen such instances'

 The thunderheads, high white pin nacles of cloud, are of two types. The first type, known as heat clouds, are small in size, looking like puffs of steam, and may melt in the intense heat without causing shower. While they indicate a thunderstorm tendency, yet such storm may not occur nearer than 100 miles. The true thuhderheads. which result in such storms near by. are narrow at the top, have some stratifcation at their bases, and are from 10 to 15 degrees in width. They form all around the horizon, and not in small detached patches like the heat clouds.

Paradise for Sportsmen

To him who knows not where to go. ther. can be no better place suggested than the Pocono mountains, lying in the northeast. ern part Of Pennsylvania, along the beauti. ful Delaware riyer. Whether you go for health, or sport, you can hardly experience the latter without acquiring the former
 The elevation of the mountains varies from l,600 to 1000 feet, and are one dense growth of pine and fir trees. Deer, bear and other large game are plentiful, and though the region is visited by thousands of sportsmen every year, there seems to be no noticeable decrease in the attractions offered. The Pocono mountain hotels, camps and game preserves are readily accessible by the Laelawanna Railroad, the great trunk line between New York and the Great Lakes.

CHANGES ON A RAILROAD.
Man Is Pretty Certain so Get Along.

Steady young men with brains enough to master the details of rail- roading," said railroad superintend- ent, to a New York Sun man, "are in demand every day in the week in ou4' business. No young man in this busi- ness need get discouraged if he has ability and industry enough to get next to the good things.
 .'The trouble with most of our ap- plicants is that they have tried half dozen other callings before they at tempt to break into railroading. Fail ure is bad thing for young man; it destroys his nerve, and if it is encoun- tered three or four times in succession, it is pretty near ruinous. We get plenty of these fellows without nerve and they don't last long. This leads to constant changes in the personnel of the operating departments, but mo- where else is the sitting so rapid and so certain.
 Engineers and firemen are recruit ed from below, but our higher class en- gineers, our salaried clerks who have something more to do than to be mere TecufueFs, our LII uFe SuPtFiH teHuents, must come from educated men.

FIGHT WITH INSURGENTS.
Conditions in the Island of Cebu En- couraging-The First Labor Prob
 lem Under the New Tariff

Manila, Oct. 2s.-The constabulary report a fight with insurgents near Passi, Province of Iloilo, Island of Panay, in which D insurgents were killed and three captured, together with quantity of arms and ammu- milton.
 The news from Gen. Hughes regard ing conditions in the Island of Cebu is encouraging. Lorega has sur rendered, with his entire force, and on cannon and several rifles, while Gen. Hughes is negotiating for the surrender of MaXilot, who styles him self "Governor Politico-militar His surrender will mean the pacifcation of the province. Lack of food and the harrassing effects of the aggress- i've tactics now pursued by the Amer ican forces are having their influence upon the natives. In many places where rice is doled out by the gov ernment, only enough is given for one meal so that it is hardly possible for any large quantity to find it's way to the insurgents.
 It is believed that the recent mani festations in the Island of Samar were chiefly due to the lack of food, the insurgents finding it necessary to make outlets to the coast in order to obtain this.
 The first labor problem growing out of the new tariff has arisen. A hat and umbrella factory, employing 600 hands, has found it necessary to close. The lawyers are making protest 10 the commission, urging protection, as the same goods from Germany can be sold at half the price it takes to

Many persons with delicate skin suffer greatly in winter from chapping. Ere quently the trouble arises from the use of impure soap and cheap salves.

Three Searching Parties.

If Miss Stone is living, she will be found within ten days. Three differ ent parties are now en route to es- tablish communication with the bri- gands. Dickinson has sent two young men from Sofia. They are Macedo- nians, and know the country well. party of five has gone from Samakov with the same object. They are for mer pupils of Miss Stone, and volun- teered for the trip. Mr. Dickinson pays all expenses.
 Most Mysterious Affair.
 ''1he third party consists of one sent by the Russian minister.
 This is the most mysterious affair we have had since the court photog- rapher was captured in the woods near Samakov, 13 years ago. He is still living, and his frugal life with the brigands cured him of several diseases.
 1t is ominous that nothing has been heard of the captive for a month. Our severe measures have driven the brigands from the frontier to the in- terior, and it is now a race between the three relief parties to see which will find her first. Someone is sure to find her if living.
 4tn Unconfirmed Report.
 "News has reached us that the bri gands were attacked by Turkish troops, but this is not confirmed
 While the government declines to barley with the brigands, it facilitates every effort to find Miss Stone. The brigands doubtless now are in some Turkish house. The Turks invariably protect them from backsheesh. The brigands will kill Miss Stone if they do not get the ransom. They have said so, and they always keep their word. This is the brigand code of honor. Other brigands will scoff at them if they let her go without money.
 Will Hang Them All, If-
 "If we find them we will hang them all. They are sure to be caught with in a year."
 Consul-General Dickinson asserts that the real cause of the delay in finding Miss Stone is the rivalry be- tween the Turkish and the Bulgarian governments to fix the responsiblil- ity on each other. Turkey wants to find them in Bulgarian territory, and vice versa.
 Mir. Dickinson also declares that 800 Bulgarian soldiers are totally in adequate for the frontier of over one hundred miles long.

The Summer Colony--and the Bis Store.

Decoration Day, in a large measure, will be devoted to making plans for the summer. And at this time the Big Store will be heard as to the part it will take in furthering those plans.
 A large portion of the pub lic-larger than hitherto, it is believed-will pass the sum- mer along the picturesque shores on either side of the harbor. And the greater this summer colony becomes, the more apparent becomes the need of just such a perfectly equipped and perfectly de- pendable store as this is.
 We would recall now the features which make summer shopping here so popular
 If you can't come, you can telephone. And you are cer- tain that the goods so order cred will De what you want ed-that the price will be ex- actly what you would have paid had you come in person; that the delivery twill be prompt; that the goods will arrive in smart, compact and neat looking packages.
 All this is true of mail orders.
 When you come in person you have the attractions of a large, roomy store always coo, and the delightful sense of the presence Of new, fresh, charmingly varied and high grade goods. There is the Palm Tea Room and its dainty, luncheons. There is the Waiting Room, for read ing and for correspondence. There is the Little French Corner for those personal at tentions--manicuring, chirop- ody, shampooing and hair dressing. There is the Gus toners Desk for checking parcels and for obtaining in formation generally. That is a partial list. A store with all these has more. They will suggest themselves. But tits clear that this is the store in which shopping has attained the highest plane of satisfac- tion and comfort.
