 The business and professional men in other parts of this city and the suburban districts will soon ''get wise" to the fact that when 1t comes to playing ball, the merchants, clerks and men of profession from across the bridge are real race horses. Tester day Captain Smith took his aggrega- tion to Waterville and they ad- ministered crushing defeat to the business men of the 'ville, the final score being IA to A. The Brooklyn ties played a bang up article of ball and the only error credited against them was that made by Squire Kamack. A village resident by the name of Laehance served them up fol the boys who reside near H. Rigney's perfume factory. His curves were slammed to every corner of the lot Emil Ryder was on the slab for the winners and allowed the moneyed men of Waterville only four hits.

SOLD WEES HORSE
Man Hauled Up For IntOxication
 This Morning.

/ Ennos Ball was arrested this after noon about o'clock by Officer John Bergin. Although Ball was charged with intoxication 1t was because of the complaint of his wife that Ennos was arrested She claims that this morning he sold horse and wagon belonging to her. Ennos maintains that it was his property and that he had perfect right to make the sale. It appears that Ball disposed Of, the turnout to hackman named Far rington this morning for $200. When brought to the station he had only $105 in his clothes. He stated that Harrington had the remainder. According to Ball Harrington thought that the former was too much under the weather to handle $200 so ha gave him only part of what was conl.s ing to him. This afternoon Ball was sleeping at the station while the arr rival of Harrington to explain mat ters was being awaited by the police. MT and Mrs Ball came to this city re- gently from Pennsylvania and reside on Division street.

HAu IN DISGUISE.
Witnesses Testify as to Washington Professor's Suspicious Acts.

Witnesses Testify as to Washington
 Professor's Suspicious Acts. KARLSRUHE, Germany, July 20.- At the Hau murder trial many wit neses testified to seeing man with a false beard in Baden-Baden, several of them near the Afolitor home and within an hour of the tragedy.
 Two of these witnesses declared they recognized Hau as the same man. Schmitz. the gardener, testified that he heard the fatal shot at 6:02 p. m.
 Baroness von Reitzenstein, living in a villa on the road taken by Frau Molitor and Olga Molitor during the walk before the shooting swore that she went out to the letter box at $50 o'clock and saw a man with a black beard whom she now in court recogniz- ed as Hau. Returning toward her vil- Ia, she saw the Molitors, but differ ent man, having an iron gray beard and being older and shorter in stature than Hau, was following them. She re-entered her villa precisely at 6 o'clock. This raises a new point in the case. itNis said, and gives rise to , the supposition by the authorities that Hau may have hired another man to commit the act.
 At the night session Hau admitted that Baroness von Reitzenstein had been correct in saying she recognized him near the Molitor villa. The judge, with great deliberation. demanded an explanation of Hau's purpose in being there. Hau firmly refused to give this Information. adding, T realize the full consequence of this refusal"
 Hoping that the bad news would cause Frau Molitor to he attacked with apoplexy, Hau sent his. mother ,in-law a telegram saying that her daughter Olga was dying.
 This startling charge was made by Lieutenant Moliter. son of the wom- an for whose murder at Baden-Baden Hau is on trial for his life.

TRADES GREAT MAGNET.
How Some Mammoth Fortunes Have
Been Built Up.

Many OF the great fortunes in Amer
lea have been gained by the 1udicious
use OF printers ink. The wealthiest
merchants attribute their success to
advertising. Millions and millions of
dollars worth of manufactured prod
ucts are annually sold to the people
of the United States through the ad.
vertising pages of the public press,
the only medium. Consider the new
tangled breakfast foods, the numerous
natural food preparations! 1t is more
than likely they would never have be-
come known without their merits
were exploited before the people
through the newspapers. Great exclu-
.sive mail-order houses, institutions
that have come into existence during
the past 20 years, have been built up
entirely through judicious advertis
ing.
AS to the mail order houses, there
is loud clamor againa their en-
croachments throughout the country.
There is every cause for alarm that
they will eventually grow into such
mammoth institutions as will monop-
Ollie the business that is now the
backbone and spine of the country
towns. There is. one way that the
merchants can lessen the evil 1t is
by persistent use of the public press.
Use advertising space, meet the COM
petition rightly and squarely and let
the people know about 1t.
Hundreds of wouldbe business ven.
lures have failed just because there
was no proper advertising. Hundreds
and thousands of small merchants fail
for the same cause. The paper in a
small town is of greater force than
the average merchant thinks. If the
storekeeper desires to test his home
paper as an advertising medium, let
him insert an advertisement of some
article and put the price lower than
it is generally sold at. Then await
results. He will find that the people
will learn Of it, and call to see about
it.
Dollars to the editor for advertis-
ing space are never lost If the adver-
Using is of the proper kind. The in
vestment will bring greater returns to
the merchant than money invested in
any other way. One trouble is that
the average merchant knows little
about proper methods of advertising.
A simple card John Jones, Grocer
sells groceries" is of but little use.
Make advertising attractive. Tell
about goods, about prices, and every.
thing that prospective purchaser
may want to know. Keep persistently
at it. Change advertisements week
after week. The people look for it.
and 1t will pay.

Trust "Graft,n

One of the practices Of the trusts in
the marketing of their products, is
the prize schemes. In order to induce
the consumers to use their various
brands of goods, attractive offers are
made to exchange different articles
for certificates and coupons. But it
is always intended that the consum-
ers pay the freight" Generally
where premiums are offered with
goods, the packages are short in
weight, or a few cents more charged
than goods of like kind sell for. Thus
1t can be seen how the premiums
given are paid for by the consumer,
and he pays high price for the
prizes he draws. Goods that are
given away with purchases cost
money Their cost does not come out
of the pockets of the manufacturers,
but out of the purses Of the people
who use the goods. II one desires to
buy sugar. he does not care to pay
for the scoop or shovel. He wants
sugar, and at the lowest price con-
sistent. He knows that If he takes
the scoop or the shovel some one
pays the bill. Various systems of
premium giving have been devised
Some call for certain number OF
coupons of some sort, and so much
cash, or some article just for the
coupons alone. Where cash is re-
quired along with coupons there is
apparently an additional profit in the
deal aside from that made on the
goods with which coupons are given
q 1t is well to buy goods on their merits
alone Buy what you want and at
the right price, and you will be ahead
of the premium plan.

NOTHING HID FROM KAISER.
How German Emperor Keeps In Touch
with Worlds Affairs.

The German emperor's interest in
everything that goes on in the world
Is we'll known, but few are aware OF
the trouble he takes to keep in touch
with current affairs. According to
Munich newspaper, the kaiser reads
at least three papers every day, chang
ing the list several times week in
order to become fully acquainted with
the ideas of all political parties in the
state. But this by no means exhausts
his appetite for information. Every
day the ministry of foreign affairs, as
well as that of the interior, has to pro-
vide newspaper cuttings, properly
named and dated, and pasted on slips
ready for the emperor's perusal.
These he carefully reads, making mar
ginar notes as he goes along, and they
are then scrupulously classified and
put aside ready for immediate refer
ence. Often, too, the emperor asks
for cuttings relating to the particular
technical subjects in which for the
time he Is specially interested.

after my granddaughter Of about
seven years had been cured Of the
measles, she was attacked about a
fortnight later by a furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body,
especially the upper part OF. it, forming
watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night,
using all the remedies we could think
of. Nothing would help. We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty
four hours we noted considerable i'm

complete set of the Cuticura Remedies,

The Winnipeg (Canada) Free Press
of a few days since contains account
of the success that followed the ef-
forts OF William Knowles. an English
man who located near Winnipeg, Man.
itoba. This is but one of many let
tiers giving experiences of settlers,
and should be encouraging to those
who are looking about for new
home in which they may better their
conditions. The following is copy
of the article referred to:
William Knowles, who cultivates
some twelve acres of land just below
Middleohusch ferry on east side Of the
Red River has probably as fine dis
play of horticultural products as any
in Manitoba. The whole Of his hold
ing is in high state of cultivation
and literally crowded with splendid
vegetable specimens, which have for.
tunately escaped damage by hail, al
though heavy storms have more than
once occurred within few miles. The
potatoes are a wonderful crop, and he
expects to raise $500 bushels from
his patch of Az acres. A half dozen
of tubers selected yesterday average
more than pound each. Adjoining
the potatoes. may be seen a marvellous
collection of tomatoes. There are 600
plants, all growing under an enor-
nous weight of fruit. One single
stock picked yesterday contained
eighteen tomatoes and weighed four
| pounds. This extraordinary example
of marvellous growth, together with
some of the potatoes were sent to the
Free Press Office.
The proprietor was the first in
town with several specimens, includ-
ing green corn. The season has been
favorable for onions, and one square
| patch of nearly an acre is looking re-
markably healthy. In addition there
| are good crops of cabbages, cauliflow-
err, turnips, parsnips, carrots, pump
| hns, marrows, cucumhers, celery, peas,
| lettuce, rhubarb, etc. The floral de-
| partment has not been neglected and
| charming display of all the well
| known blooms were shown, including
| specially choice lot of asters.
Mr.. Knowles, who gained most of
| his gardening experience in England,
| is loud in his praise of Manitoba soil
for vegetable raising, and Is gratified
with the result of his first attempt at
| extensive horticulture.
