PILES OF TOY TRUMPETs.
The Great Variety Manufactured
Nowadays for the Holt
day Trade.

"Among the many articles now
produced in celluloid," said a toy
dealer to a New York Sun man,
care children's toy trumpets.
"TOy trumpets of celluloid are
made in a score or more of styles.
including the familiar straight
trumpets and trumpets fashioned
like French horns.
"YOu didn't know there were so
many styles of toy trumpets, al.
together? You thought a TOW
trumpet was just a toy trumpet?
"Why, toy trumpets, including
those of brass, and those of tin.
and taking into account the diff
ferent sizes and shapes and man.
ner Of finish and of ornamental
ton, in which they are turned ont.
are made in 500 styles.
You see a small boy walking
along the street blowing a penny
trumpet the day after Christmas
and you think you've seen all there
is to be seen in toy trumpets.
But if you were to look through
the stock Of a big importer of TOYS
you would find when you came tc
where the toy trumpet samples
were displayed more toy trumpet'
than you had ever dreamed of. lit
orally hundreds of them; and o.
all these toy trumpets no two are
alike.
"YOu see, the toy trumpet is al
article of universal sale. a Ger
tain age in his life every chilli
must have a toy trumpet, and s,
the number of them sold ever
year is enormous. The toy manu-
facturers try, of course, as har,
to produce novelties and attract
i've goods in this line as in othe
lines, for the toy trumpet trade /
something worth cultivating.
"And now, as you have seer
there has been added to the ms
terial of which this ancient toy i
made the peculiarly modern ms
terial of ceIluloid, making the al
sortment in which these nois
makers are produced more varie
now than ever. Oh, yes, there
something in toy trumpets.'

A Wonderful Invention.

1t is interesting to note that
fortunes are frequently made by
the invention of articles OF minor
importance. Many OF the more
popular devices are those de
signed to benefit people and meet
popular conditions, and one of
the most interesting OF these that
has ever been invented is the DIR.
White Electric Comb, patented
Jan. 1, 90. These wonderful
Combs positively cure dandruff,
hair falling out, sick and nervous
headaches, and when used with
DR.. Whites Electric Hair Brush
are positively guaranteed to make
straight hair curly in IS days
time. Thousands of these cleo
trio combs have been sold in the
various cities of the Union, and
the demand is constantly increas-
ing. Our agents are rapidly be-
coming rich selling these combs.
They positively sell on sight.

1t Is Now a Seedless Apple.

John F. Spencer of Crane
Junction is the creator of he
seedless apple in Colorado. H,
has forwarded several bushels tc
the Worlds Fair at St. Louis
where they will be given a promi
nent space in the state fruit ex.
hibit.
The tree that bears the seedless
fruit does not have blossoms, SC
cannot be hurt by frost. Worms
will not seek a seedless apple
This will make it a great favor
ite with fruit growers and apple
eaters.
Mr.. Spencer is now expert
menting with apples Of various
varieties. He is anxious to de-
velop a seedless Jonathan, a seed
less Ben Davis and a seedless
Wine Sap.
Already seedless apple nurser-
les have been started in several
states. The rapidity with which
the fruit growers have taken up
the new tree seems to argue that
the apple will take the place of
the old sort. Fruit growers will
soon be supplanting their old
trees with the new ones.

When Time Wasn't Money.

He would pay a hundred dollars
for suit OF clothes and not
Waste a moments 5 time in giving
to the deal a second thought /;
He would take a cab in order to
save seven minutes time,
For he felt that time was money ;
he accounted it a crime
If he had to lose a second waiting
for another who,
In fulfilling an appointment, was
not on the spot when due.
He would bolt for elevators, often
risking life and limb,
SO that he could gain a minute
which he felt meant much to
him;
He would pay the walters extra
when he had to go to eat,
Bribing them to rush his order
and be lively on their feet;
He would hurry to the barber,
giving him special fee,
Saying: Every minute wasted
means a heavy loss to me-
He was always paying money to
secure some new device
To assist him in time-saving and
was glad to pay the price;
He was always fond OF preaching
that the men who gain the TOP
Win because they count the sec
onds, but his reasoning
would stop
When he had to write dispatches
he would read them through
and through,
Often taking fifteen minutes to
cut out a word or two.

How Parker Can Fall.
But to return to the convention can
didates If the Bryanftes, Hearstites and
all others opposed to the nomination OF
Parker are determined TO defeat him 1t
seems that 1t can be easily done by
compact organized and well disciplined
minority like the famous S06 for Grant In
rs. The trouble Is the man to rally
around. 1t appears that Mr.. Bryan has no
candidate, or IL he has he keeps 1t to
himself. II Bryan had a good, strong
man to put to the front as a candidate
he would easily defeat the Hill-Belmont
combination, but therein is where he
falls But Mr.. Bryan was always
failure where diplomacy and organization
were required. He Is all right on theory,
sentiment, convictions and oratory, but
all wrong on tact, practicability, discp-
line, methods and organization. If he had
about two ounces of Germans gumption
In his brain he would be a wiser and
greater man than he is. In the conyen-
ton, however, If he cannot present the
the support of the minority he can as
last resort allow his own state to pre-
sent w. J. Bryan. This would insure
him the votes of all his mutual friends In
the delegations, which have the right to
vote for their individual preferences.
1t is conceded that Mr. Hearst is not
the candidate for the minority 10 make
the stand and fight against Judge Parker.
Better timber than Hearst must be
brought to the front. OF course, If the
name of Senator German is formally pre-
scented to the convention and the Hearst
and Bryan forces stand as a solid wall
against Parker, the Maryland senator
will be in a position to name the nominee
of the convention, for 1t is we'll under
stood among Mr.. oorman's friends that
his name will not be presented to the
convention unless he is assured of a suffi-
Client number of votes to command the
situation. German, Bryan and Hearst
with their following can control the ST.
Louis convention from start to finish, not
less than $50 votes, and perhaps 500 votes
But before Arthur Pue German gets into
the little presidential jackpot you can
bet he Is going to know what he is there
for and just exactly what he is up
against, for before he Is frozen out there
will be shivering elsewhere.
To sum 1t up, it is the field against the
favorite and If the field leaders exercise
tact, judgment and discipline keep their
heads cool and make no breaks they have
the best show for the stakes.

of a crowd of people, to the humilia-
ton and modification of petitioner;
that by reason of said levy petitioner

mingham, .er home, on that train;
that she informed the defendant COM
pany that the trunk was hers and pro-
tested against the levy, but that the

ACCIDENT OR MURDER.
Coroner Investigating Death of John
colburn-Probably Killed by Train.

The body of John Colburn, miner, was
found beside the railroad tracks at Brook
side yesterday morning, and Coroner
Paris is holding an investigation. From
the position of the body and its con-
dition many believe that the miner was
not killed by the train, but that he was
murdered and his body placed on the
track to cover the deed.
Coroner Paris is of the opinion that
the man was killed by the train, but he
has not rendered a decision in the case
and will not do so until he has made
further Investigations. The mans arm
was cut off, and his knee was broken.
Internal injuries were also in evidence,
and there were a, number of bruises, sew
eral of which were near vital parts of
the body and might have caused death.
