BANNER WEEK
Was the Last One at John Daffin s
Confectionery.

The successful growth of John
Dafin's whoselae and retail con-
fectionery house has been with
out a parallel in the history of the
many confectionery establish
ments that have located in Sis
tersville. The week just past has
been the banner week for this
house, having sold more of their
own manufacture of ice cream,
ices and candies than in any week
since the inception of this popular
resort. and they feel very thank
full for this liberal and growing
patronage.
The key to this successful
growth is the courtesy they extend
to every customer, their strict in
tegrity and the guaranteed first
quality Of every article they man
ufacture.
Mr.. Dafin says it pays to adver-
tise in the Oil Review.

Robert Miller of Pittsburg, is in
the city today closing up the sale
of the Paden Gas company. Mr..
Miller paid $4,000 on the pur-
chase price of the plant some time
since, and was here today and
paid the residue of the purchase
money-$24, 900. This means the
Paden City project will resume
life again, and will no doubt be
made a permanent and growing
town before long. A company
that can buy and pay $4,000 for
a gas plant is not exactly dead.

CHILDREN SAVED BY
HIS STRONG ARM
Cornelius Murphy Seized and
Threw Runaway Horse as It
Dashed Toward Crowd.

If Cornelius Murphy, a truck driver,
living at No. rs Gouverneur street, had
not splendid strength in his arms a
dozen children would have been in
jured.
A driver got down last evening from
a big wagon load Of empty barrels on
single truck drawn by a big white
horse and went into a saloon.
Many children crowded the steep
grade at that part of Gouverneur
street The big white horse started
down the street at a gallop. A crowd
Of children ran up Gouverneur hospital
steps for safety, the big white horse
almost upon them.
Murphy was standing in the street in
front of his home and ran out and
grasped the horse by the bride, gave
a quick turn and the big white horse
rolled over and over. The truck also tip
ped over and bombarded the children
with empty barrels, but not a single one
of the youngsters was seriously hurt.
Murphy's right foot was jammed be-
meath the horse and painfully bruised
His fingers were cut, too, from the
strength with which he had clung to
the bride.

other than money are kept for year,
and then auctioned off, the proceeds of
the sale 'reverting to the department.
The reasons for the non-delivery Of
mail are many and various. At times
the postoffice department is to blame,
but more often the senders themselves
are responsible.
Letters sent without postage are in
evitably held UP. The addressee is then
notified that a letter to his or her ad-
dress is held for insufficient postage,
and he or she is requested to forward
the necessary stamps. If he neglects to
do so the letter becomes dead, and is
eventually destroyed.
Another class of dead letters con-
sists of misdirected mail matter against
which the righteousness of the clair
voyant decipherers and guessers of the
Office has been exerted in vain. Let
ters addressed in Persian, Chinese,
Arabic, Russian and other uncOuth
characters are sent to the various for
eign consuls for translation into Eng
lish. Those addressed in phonetic
Volapuk are puzzled out by o. G. Men
ger, the chief elucidator of the dead
letter office To him 1t was as plain
as day that Gutaboiking is Guttenburg,
N. J., and Hocienewna, Hudson ave-
nue.. DZiamejka is obviously Jamaica,
and Kendewaia, Kent avenue. Every
month 10000 similar perversions OF
the English language are submitted to
Mr.. Menger for solution, and only 15
per cent are submitted in vain.
Among the diversions Of people upon
whom time hangs heavily is the send
ing through the mails of puzzle letters
addressed in rebus or cipher chirogra-
ply. Here is a sample:
The Saint Paul globe., 1904-05-08
UNCLAIMED MAIL
is PROD|CIOUS
Dead Letter Office Gets All
Kinds of Freak Com
munications.

NEW YORK, May ASIDE from the
moralizing that could be done upon the
large and small tragedies precipitated
by the non-arrivaI of the peace-bring-
ing, money containing, love- protesting
letters sent US by our friends, creditors
or sweethearts, and buried in the
graveyard Of the postsffice department,
a visit to the dead letter office of the
New York general postoffice is of more
than usual interest
1t Is from there that 100000 pieces
of mail are sent yearly to Washington,
undeIivered and unidentified. The
senders or consigners Of 28,647 OF these
make inquiries for their undelivered
mail; the others remain in ignorance
of the sending of the letters or of their
non delivery.
The letters are opened and read
nothing is sacred to the dead letter Of
fice-and if they contain the addresses
of the senders they are forwarded back
to them. If they contain no clew to
the identity of their signers they are
destroyed. If money is contained in
them 1t goes into the treasury of the
postofice department. The valuables

through the mails hundreds of times.
James A. Farley,
Mass.

This reads James A. Farley, Lowell,
Mass, and is puzzle Of a more mod
ern vintage. At the time of the pub
lication of Conan Doyle's story of
"The Dancing Men" a number of let
ters passed through the New York
office addressed in this cipher. For
tunately;-M Menger had read the story
and cut out the cipher alphabet; the
letters were sent on to their destina-
tions without a hitch.
Yet another class Of dead letters"
is that comprising unclaimed letters
sent in answer of ads The advertiser,
once his want is filed, does not bother
about going to the newspaper office to
see if more answers have been received.
These accumulate so fast that each
week over 10000 such are turned over
to the New York Office by the news
papers of the city.
The unclaimed letters, addressed to
guests of the New York hotels and
similarly disposed of number on an
average $4,000 a month, about l6,UO0
Of which are returned to senders.
Then there are what are known as
non -transmissible parcels, containing
matter outlawed by the postoftiee reg
ulations. Every conceivable thing of
a weight less than five pounds has
been sent through the mails or at least
as far as the dead letter department.
A year seldom elapses but that some
mail car is burned in transit from the
ignition of matches thus sent through
the malls in violation of law. No day
passes but that the contents of some
mail bag are smeared with ointment,
bluing, cough medicine or crushed to-
matOeS.

ness" inasmuch as ''chop suey'' really
means cut up" ''cut fine, or fine cut .
When we say, at 1.-The Wide East" my
can catchee chop suey," we are merely
announcing, I'VE will take some fine cut, -
with no gross allusion to "eatin' tobacco -
Chop Suey or Death.
Recalling an earlier query, however, the
manager apologies and replies sincerely,
categorically like the representative of a
polished, philosophical nation. Toying
meditatively with the end Of his queue
and dropping his long, prominent eyelids,
Moy Jim responds slowly, "Chop suey no
have got, my thinkee no wanchee livee. .
And to such sentiment all of Moy Jim S
regular customers will cry their loud as
sent-"h l haven't got chop suey, 1 don't
want to live"
The manager has adopted this normal
view point: Chop suey is necessity of
life, and needlessly to increase the retail
price of a necessity of life is a social
crime Moy Jim is no criminal. Rather
is he a philanthTopist. He is in business
