The Only Way.

The greatest and strongest argu-
ment in favor of the newspaper as a
medium for advertisers, is the hold a
good paper gets on its readers.
Through long association in which
the subscriber finds his paper always
battling for the right, he comes to
lean on it for ideas and opinions as
well as the news of the day What a
man reads in his favorite newspaper
he believes, advertisements and all.
Instances of consistent advertisers
becoming rich through the proper
use of publicity are numerous in
every town and city. When a village
gets beyond the thousand or two
thousand limit in that stage where
everybody does not know everybody
else's business, the time for mer-
chants to advertise has arrived
Reno has long since passed that stage
and the merchant who clings to the
belief that because he has been in
business here for thirty years every
body knows him, will wake up some
morning, if he has not already done
so, to find that the new man who is a
rustler and believes in letting the
people know who he is, where his
store is and what he has to SELL to-
gether with the price of his goods,
has crowded the old timer to the
wall
Reno is growing rapidly, and in
order to get the trade of her new
people as well as retain that of her
old, you must use the progressive
methods of publicity offered by the
home newspaper.-Reno Gazette.

COLD STORAGE OF WEALTH
Wonderful NauIt Tint Ne,, <.t., lionnires Use for Deposit of
 Their Securities.

Many persons who have been
 amazed during the past few days at
 the holdings of stock certificates that
 represent millions of dollars bg some
 of the magHate~ cf Wall street have
 more than once wondered where on
 earth the stacks of certificates are
 slowed away over night. some of the
 certificates are passed dax after day i'll their business deals from owners
 to owners who have not strong un- derground vaults. CT do all firms on the street have vaults above the aver age kind, >aX. a New York core spondent of the I'ittsburg Dispatch
 Be that aS it may, from this time out the millions in bonds and eertif- cates and other street valuables, as well as ,aluablcs owned elsewhere, in this city and other cities, are to be slowed away in safe in deposit company on Broad street which has just been put in commission. It i. the biggest safe in the world. In this safe are already deposited more SC curities than in any other one place i'll the world. Wealth untold is repre- scnted there by stocks and bonds, Jewelry and silver plate. Here also repoSe the wills of many of the big gest millionaires in America. So vast are the financial interests concerned in this safe that the board of dircc- tors in charge of it iS made to repre- sent every faction oi the financial world. John D. Rockefeller, !. I. Morgan, the NanderbIts. the Roth schilds, the Ilsrriman>. the Goulds and other large interests have per sonal representatives on the board The door leading into the safe is tremendous piece of mechanism. It is circular, eight feet in diameter and The hinge of this big door weighs 1000 pounds. The door and yestibule weigh 70 tons, and yet >o nicely IS the door balanced on bali bearings that a baby might close il with the gentle pressure of it's tiny finger. The safe is 53 feet long, ~ feet wide nine feet in height. The walls are four feet thick. The interior k fitted up with 2.0O0 boxes but 5000 more will be added as they are needed Formidable as the mechanical appll' ances for safety are they are not de- pended on altogether.

 One of the most serious riots broke out at Congress and State streets and Harrison and State streets. Ev some maneuver the strikers Succerd- ed in dividing the 3s-wagon caravan. so that the front of f lay at Con gress street, on State, and the rear at Harrison. While the vanguard battled with crowd which hurled broken bottles. stale eggs and other missiles. including spooIs of thread by women sympathizers in the crowd. the rear guard was called upon to de- fend itself against more serious at tack.
 Vt this place tho mob made a des- perate assault upon the drivers. but was compelled to turn it's attention to the police, who came up on the run. Twice the blue coats hurl. q themselves against the infuriated men. and twice they were rebutTe1 and crowded back
 It was the most desperate clash the police have had with citizens in years In several instances the strikers and their syIppathizers "renched clubs from tie policemen and used them against their owners. Meanwhile several men had gained q position of advantage on the ele- vated loop. from which they fired missiles at the officers. The caravan
