The advertising story of State street,
Chicago, can not be told in a few
words. From Randolph street on the
north to Harrison street on the south,
comprising seven blocks on State
street, the principal dry goods, cloth
ing, shoe, jewelry and department
stores are now located. Less than
thirty years ago the largest space used
by any merchant in Chicago, in any
of our daily papers. was one-half of a
single column; and the largest amount
paid by any merchant or firm to any
one paper for a years advertising did
not exceed $1,000. During the past
year a number of State street mer-
chants have each paid from $4,000 to
100000 for advertising used in single
dailies, and a careful, conservative
estimate of the aggregate amount paid
for advertising in Chicago dailies dur
ing the past ear, by merchants in the
seven blocks named, reaches the grand
total of over $2,OOO,OOO. Full ninety
five per cent. of his amount was borne
by fourteen leading advertisers. This
immense volume of advertising in Chi
cago dailies has been built up practi-
cally since 1883, a period of but twenty
years.-Mahin's Magazine.

IRISR IMMIGRATION GROWING.
An Increase Of 4 ASH Imn1igrantsi In Tear,
Which an Expert Depbsru.

Tho Rev. NJ J. Henry. diructor Of tho
Mission Of Our Lady OF the Rosary for
ths Protection Of Irish 1mnignnt Girl. IA
his annual address 70 tho patrons Of chs
mission, cites some Interesting faot. about
Irish immigration TO this country in the
last year. The number Of hish people who
landed tor the year ending Juns 50, 1904,
he says, was ae,7s1, an increase OF l,Asl
over tho number tho year preceding.
But even 20, the Irish, he says, who once
In numbers led the invading host, are now
dIth on the list.
The lower rating. in Fatlsr Henry's
opinion, is not due to the fact that Ireland q
annual contribution to America has mate
rally diminished, but to tho fact that inrni-
grafton from other countries has increased
abnormally. A decrease in Irish immigra-
ton, Father Henry thinks, would be happy
circunnstanoe. however; for Ireland, unlike
other European countries, which can aiford
to lose their surplus population. can Ill part
with Athose who are It's Meblood."
The result Of the rate war among tho
transatlantic passenger carrying com-
panies, Mr. Henry finds, has probably
put Irish emigration Temporarily on the In
crease. One notable fact about recent Irish
immigration. Father Henry ssys, Is that
moro girls in their teens have been landing
than was the case formerly. He shows that
the work for his society mission is Just as
urgent now as ever.

HIDDEN JERSEY CONSPIRACY.
No Trace OF Any That Left Bayonne C1ty's
Accounts Short SIS 900.

| Cyrillus l.. Robinson, the seventy-year-
old City Collector OF Bayonne. N. j., in
whose books shortage Of SIS, 600 has been
discovered, and who is now under bail on
the charge of embezzling $1,000 Of the
city's money, says that by advice Of counsel
he can make no statement about the case
against him until he testifes at his trial
A great many requests have been made
to Mr. Robinson to make such statement,
because it has been darkly limited by him.
self and some OF his friends that there is q
great conspiracy against him in the city
government and that when he does let
himself go the community will see that he
was blameless and some persons in i'm
portant places will be sorry he spoke. While
similar limitations have been made before
in such cases, they have rarely been ac-
cepted with the seriousness manifested In
Bayonne over this
One of the statements on which the
conspiracy rumors have been based lib
that Alfred Rose, the expert accountant
whom Mayor Brady Of Bayonne called in
the alteration involving the 50 900 shortage
had been made while the Collector was at
Greenwood Lake on his vacation: MIR;
Rose is the accountant who investigated
Company, the Asphalt Trust and other
large concerns 1t was he who discovered
the ire gularities in Mr.. Robinson's books.
MIR. Rose said yesterday that he had never
made any such statement as that the Col
lector's accounts were altered In his alb
senoe. What he had said was that the
50 900 alteration was made after the pre-
liminary examination Of the books. Mr..
Robinson, for all he knew. was In Bayonne
after this examination was made MIR.
Rose said also that the investigation was
not yet complete and that $35 900 was the
shortage discovered up to date: II there
has been conspiracy the books have failed
to show any trace Of 1t to the accountants
at work on them.
It was the custom, according to tho simple
financial methods praotised in the Bayonne
city government before the present ad-
ministration came in, for the Collector to
deposit all city money which came to him
in the bank in his own name. When the
Treasurer wanted money to pay the city bills
he asked the Collector for check. These
bank deposits were often very large Nat
uraiIy they carried interest. When the
experts went to work on tho city books
they couldn't find any interest on these old
deposits credited TO the oity. This infor- |
nation was conveyed to Mr.. Robinson.
Dear dear!" he said. is that so?'
He drew q check on his private account |
for the interest and gave 1t to the Mayor.
It was decided afterward that q thorough |
OF the city's accounts by the
new experts, instead OF the local account
ants employed previously, was desirable;
That ia the Investigation which resulted

upon entering, saying that he was the one

The stranger entered the parlor where
the coffin was mounted, and after staying
for some time and refusing to leave, be-
came greatly excited.
An uncle OF the boy entered the house,
and was summoned to the parlor to drive
out the stranger. A lively struggle fol-
lowed, in which the coffin was all but over
turned several times. The screams OF the
mother brought Policeman Heintz. 1t
took him but a short time to remove the
stranger to the station house, where he
was locked up. He gave his name as

make OF why he had gone to the house.
In the Yorkville police court Lamb was
unable to pay $40 fine and was sent to Il cell.
