II is easy TO see why the doctrine
should be promulgated and followed
that advertising is the soul OF busi.
ness; that the man who cannot use ad-
vertising in his business has no right
10 be in business; that, as Macaulay
once said, advertising Is to business
what steam IN to machinery, the grand
propelling power. The story u told OF
a man who once came to n merchant
TO buy a remnant OF cloth long out OF
fashion. with which TO repair a gar.
ment. The merchant was delighted 10
be able TO satisfy the new customer
and asked. "How do you happen to
come to me for this bagatelleT The
answer was, II thought you would be
the most likely man TO have tho sam
pie because you never advertise" Our
modern immense establishments take
good care not TO hide their light under
a bushel. II Is claimed that one Of
these establishments I'm the United
States paid out $250000 annually for
advertisements in three newspapers
alone, and the newspaper advertising
expenses OF the twelve largest retail
stores have been estimated at $3,00o.-
600 per annum.-V. MataJa In Interna-

Pushed Ahead
By Advertising

ed on the fact that whereas the tea
grown I'm China was formerly the most
popular. It now occupies second place,
while Ceylon tea has become the favor
ite with all classes OF people. The
question. What has brought about this
change of taste1 is NOT, however. a diff
ficult one TO answer. AS a prominent
firm Of dealers pointed out Ceylon tea
has been literally advertised for some
years. while the Chinese product has
not been advertised at all The change
noted has been wrought during these
years, and IT Is therefore reasonable
to conclude that advertising is the prin-
cipai cause thereof. AS a result OF ad-

many cases China tea has practically

WILL IMPROVE ROAD.
BALTIMORE q onIo TO EXTEND
DOUBLE TRACK OF ROAD.
VIII Mean Greatly Increased Facilities
Between Washington and
Washington function.

AS result of heavy increased traffic
| the Baltimore and Ohio railroad has
decided to extend the double track OF
the Metropolitan branch from Gath
ersburg to Germantown, distanc OF
about four miles, and from Barnesville
TO Dickernson, little over two miles.
| The contracts have been awarded,
and work will be commenced at once,
which viii require about year for
completion, and Will cost in the neigh
borhood Of 5000, 900. When this is done,
the Metropolitan branch will be double
tracked from Washington to Wash
ington Junction, distance Of forty
three miles, with the exception of six
miles between Germantown and
GAINESVILLE, and seven miles between
Dickerson and Washington Junction.
In making this improvement, the
present line will he changed between
Browns Station and Chopper, little
less than mile, for the purpose of
eliminating short curves and reducing
the grade; the distance will also be
slightly shortened. The present wood
en- trestles over Big Seneca Creek, little
east of Germantown, will be removed
and a strong stone yiaduct consisting
of three sixty-five.foot, semicircular
arches, will be substituted, making
a.substantial and permanent roadbed.
This bridge is 400 feet long and 80 feet
high.
The wooden trustIe over Little Mon
ocaey Creek, two miles west of Barns
velle, will be substituted by amis-
onry viaduct consisting Of three
nine-foot semi-circular arches, that
prove a most substantial roadbed.
This additional double tracking will
very greatly improve the line between
Washington and Washington juno
ton, aud better enable the operating
department to maintain first-class
service and keep the trains running
on schedule time. 1t is probable that
it will not be long until the remaining
single track on the line will be double
tracked.
This work is in charge of Mr.. d. ID.
Carothers, the chief engineer, with
Mr.. A. Kinsman, engineer of con-
struction having direct supervision
over it.

SAFE ROBBED LAST NIGHT
Burglars Made a Haul at Office OF
Mr.. H. H. Emmert
WAS A SLICK PIECE OF WORK
Visitor Took $50 In Cash But Lett
$4,000 In Stocks and
Bonds Behind.

Some time Monday night Q
burglar or burglars entered the
law office of Attorney H. ii.
Emmert, directly above the Old
National bank, and after break
ing into the safe made away
with $50 in cash, leaving un'
disturbed, however, a large
number of bonds, stocks, checks,
etc, which the burglar evident'
ly thought too dangerous to
handle.
The visit of the intruder was
discovered this morning by Mr..
Emmert when he opened his
office. The Yale lock on the
outer door had been forced off,
and an investigation disclosed
the fact that the safe had been
tempered with. The safe was
not locked with the combinat'
ion. the handle being turned
sufficiently to keep the door
from swinging open. After get
ting the outer door of the safe
open the burglar attacked the
compartments with a jimmy,
forcing the iron drawers hold
ing the money and other
valuables.
This compartment was gone
over carefully and evidently at
the leisure of the fellow doing
the work. All the money in the
safe was taken, with the except
ions of % cents, which the bur
glar evidently left for nest
egg, the loss here being about
$50. There were also two
checks, amounting to about
800, but these were carefully
replaced.
In the iron compartment
were stocks, bonds and securi-
ties amounting to about $50, 900,
the property of number of
Mr.. Emmert's clients. A search
through these papers was made
by the burglar but Mr.. Emmert
states that, so far as he has
been able to determine, not one
is missing, the burglar evident,
ly coming to the conclusion
that they would be too hard
and dangerous to negotiate.
There is not the slightest
clue to the identity of the
gentleman who did the work,
and the officers are at sea. 1t
may have been the work of a
professional, who could have
been hanging around for a day
or two to get his bearings, and
who was too well acquainted
with the nature of the valuable
papers to disturb them; or it
might have been the work of
some one familiar with the
Office and the surroundings,
who was in search of some
ready cash and was afraid to
make too big a job of it by taxi
ing the stocks and bonds.
IL was a bold and neatly
executed piece of work, and
the fellow who executed il
showed ability in that particu
lar line of enterprise.

 Since my last letter Cullen and my self have been successful in what con tests we have engaged in. Dick beat a local lad by the name of 'Spud Green in thirteen rounds by the knock out route, while 1 defeated Soldier Thompson in nine rounds and Jack Blackmore in eleven rounds. am, Nike Cullen, in good shape and showing far better form than I have for sey- eral years. At present I am doing light training for contest on May 13 with Johns for the welterweight cham pionship, so of course intend to leave no stone unturned to get into the best possible condition. Johns is about the best draw here, and if I win I will do better financially than l have in any  of my other contests.
 Cullen meets Fleming on June 16, and is in great condition. In fact, I have never seen anybody work harder for contest than he. Fleming Is a rough, strong fellow, and as Dick likes that going a good fight should be the result. If he wins he will go to west ern Australia to meet Thorn. the best boy over here. Dick is coming on great. and I'm sure you will hear good reports from him.

WRESTLING
ONE MORE STAR MATCH
Dan Pickett and Ed O'con- nell For Night of June 2o - Two Star Events z Other News.

An announcement that will please the lovers of wrestling is now officially made that Dan Pickett of this city, the sturdy young Waterbury cham pion, and Bd O'Connell of New Haven have been matched to meet on the night of June 29 at City hall in a one hour wrestling contest for the light weight championship of New England. O'Connell was in Waterbury yesterday with his packer and made an effort to get on match with Pickett. It was
 first proposed to hold another tourna- ment after the Swanson and Cnaki match, but as O'Connell and Pickett were both anxious to have the matter settled up speedily, Manager Joe Law Tor of the Simonsville Athletic club made them an offer to go on for one hour prior to the big match, and the offer being very satisfactory, the men accepted. The men will wrestle for purse of $200 and $1OO side bet. For feits of $50 each will be posted to-day with Manager Lawlor, and OConnell says he will have $500 here within a week to bet on himself. This match AS thO 4CS0lI O4 tuS OutCOAc VI lu0 Kelly and OConnell match. Kelly Is Pickett's instructor and the remark was made after the defeat of Kelly that Pickett could have beaten UCon- nell on the night Kelly met his Water loo. O'Connell heard the remarks and came to this city yesterday to. get on match with Pickett if possible, and the result came as above stated. Pick ett leaves the factory, where he has been employed, to-day, and will at once go into active training. He will be in the pink of condition when the night comes for him to meet O'Connell and he has everything to gain if he can defeat the New Haven boy. This will be star contest that will increase the already lively interest in the coming tournament. There will be only one other preliminary, the Gresham and Brennan contest, but the OConnell and Pickett match and the Swanson and Cnaki match ought to give the lovers of wrestling an appetizing bill of fare.
