The editor of the GAINESVILLE (Wis.
Era, has this to say of the marriage Of
a good advertiser: "Miss Jennie Jones
and Bob Henry were married at the
Jones mansion last night. The bride is
the daughter Of our Constable, Jones,
who made good officer, and will un'
doubtedly be reelected in the Spring.
He offers a fine horse for sale in an.
other column. The groom runs q
grocery store ON Main street. and is q
good patron of our advertising columns,
and has had a good line of bargains
this week. All Summer he paid cents
cents more for butter than any other
store in town. The happy couple left
on the 10 o'clock train for Milwaukee
to visit the brides uncle, who is re-
ported to have lots of money and
Bright's disease. Bob certainly has an
eye for business.

No Stripes for First Termers.

A law has lately gone into effect in
New York State by which prison stripes
are abolished for first term men. This
change is one of a number which have
been made at the instance of State
Superintendent of Prisons Collins dur
ing the past five years for the purpose
of distinguishing first term men from
old offenders and in other ways improv-
ing their condition. 1t is in line with
this movement that the lock step and
the cropped head have been abolished
for men who are in prison for the first
time. The wisdom of the change has
been demonstrated by decrease in
punishments of over 40 per cent.

cars of the stock train, seriously damag-
ing the engine of the passenger train

cars. The fire communicated to the
snowsheds, which were consumed for a
distance of 1900 feet.

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT.
Merchant Speaks HE Mind.

/
Tonopah Sun: One striking inter-
view contained in the Bulletins recent
Tonopah write-up is that of F. E. Rugg,
manager of the Nye County Mercantile
Company. Mr.. Rugg says if San Fran
cisco wholesalers expect to do business
with the rest of the world they will
have to come to the rest of the world s
ways of doing business. One of the
things San Francisco will have to do
will be to ship goods the same day or.
ders are received. Other cities do it.
A person can buy any kind of heavy
machinery in Seattle in the morning
and it will be on the cars and out of
town the same evening any day but
Sunday. 1t is not because San Fran.
cisco is too busy, for Seattle is buster
than San Francisco. San Francisco
wholesalers charge more for goods than
any city in the world. The same
articles can be bought in Denver for 30
per cent less than in San Francisco and
they are invariably as ordered. San
Francisco will substitute and cheat the
retailer at every turn and will ignore
him if he objects.
