Advertising and news are first cousins.
The railroad and the stage coach are grandchild
and grandfather.
Four out Of five advertisers still use stage coach
methods. The agency that distributes news has the
quickest, cheapest and most effective machinery for
distributing advertising. That agency is the news
paper.
The man who passes your shop window is going
somewhere. He is on some other GRAND. If you
want to catch him when he is not in a hurry put your
shop window in the newspaper a few articles at a
time. You can make a hundred and fifty thousand
people look at this kind Of window every day and with
much better selling results than if that hundred
thousand walked by your shop one by one.
1 know a retail store in one of our large cities,
a branch of an English house, which until the autumn
of 1906 was managed by an EngEshman ~austere,
conservative, ~dignified a man who would have been
shocked to see his shop advertised in an American
newspaper. He had an exclusive trade and his net
profits amounted to about $4,000 a year. This
Enelishman died. His assistant, an aggressive young
American, took charge. He advertised; advertised
continuously in the best local newspaper. Last year
this exclusive shop made a net profit of over $50, 1000.
Why? Simply because there are five hundred
thousand w~ell-to-do people in that city who neverknew
that this shop existed until they saw those advertise
ments in the newspaper and the shop has an ex-
cellent street location, too.
This is a concrete case, the facts Of which l
personally know. The Engishman depended upon
the quality Of his goods and his beautifully crested
stationery and his attractive shop window and his
perpendicular backed dress-parade clerks; all of
which were above criticism. The young American put
the whole show into the newspaper; admission free.
Show me ten shops which advertise regularly in
a daily newspaper and l will show you nine that
are making money. The failure of the tenth is prob
ably due to bad MANAGEMENT of some sort.
Some people value goods by the price they pay
others by the shop in which they buy; others by the
effect the goods have upon their n~eighbors. 1t is only
goods by the goods. If you want all four classes as
customers it is your business as an advertiser t
make the cap fit.

AMERICAN LEAGUE STANDING.

The Yankees ended sensational and hair rails
ing game at American League Park yesterday in
the last half OF the eleventh inning by scoring
three runs, and overcoming Washington's two run
lead, the final score being to ). Despite the fact
that errors were numerous as flies in the sum-
time the game was a thriller from start TO

modatingly helped them along with misplays. with
the result that Washington took the lead. New
York needed TO tie in the ninth inning.
With ''Old Fox Griffith doing war dance on the
coaching line, Hal Chase strobe up TO the bat and
selected one of Burns's choice Easter offerings and
sent it TO the left field fence taking third the
hit. Hemphil1 went out. but Conroy smashed the
centre field fence for two-base lift, and Chase
strolled across the plate with the much desired
run

Then Mr. Burns taken from the box and
Kelley went in to twirl. Stahl stole third and
trusty Hal brought him home with a clean single.
Hemphill broke up the game then and there by
hitting TO right for two sacks.

REFUSE REDUCED RATES TO
LINCOLN, NEB.
ACTION SHOWS THAT MAeNATEs
FAVOR TAFT
Chairman Mack Declares 1t to Be a
Plain Case of Discrimina-
ton Against the
Party
By Associated Press.


CHICAGO, Aug. Norman E.
Mack chairman of the Democratic ma
tional committee, was notified tonight
that no reduced railroad rates will be
put into effect for the Bryan notifica-
! tion melting at Lincoln, Neb., on Aug
ust II. The communication came from
Eben b. Mcleod, chairman of the
Western Passenger association, and
was in reply to a letter sent to that
official by Mr.. Mack earlier in the day
and calling attention to the fact that
reduced fares had been granted on the
occasion of the Taft celebration in Gin
cinnati, whereas no concessions had
been made for the Democratic gath
ering.
The correspondence was interspersed
by several telephone conversations be-
tween Messrs. Mack and Mcleod, the
latter explaining the action of the rail
roads by referring to the fact that no
reduced rates had been put into effect
for any events in Nebraska since the
passage of the 2-cent fare law in that
state. He also emphasized the fact
that the reduced rates to Cincinnati
were offered by the Central Passenger
association.
"The action of the railroads is sim
ply discrimination against the Dem
ocratic party" said Mr. Mack. ''They
state that there Is a 2-cent rate law in
Nebraska which will not permit them
to give a reduced fare to Lincoln. But
1 desire to call their attention to the
fact that there is also a 2-cent fare law
in Ohio, which did not prevent the
granting of a reduced rate to the Taft
meeting in Cincinnati. Besides, as I
understand it, many of the railroads
which compose the Central Passenger
association are members of the West
ern Passenger association.

IN BANKRUPTCY
LIABILITIES $453, 14o, AND ASSETS

Pittsburg Detective, Friend of Family
Receiver - Slayer of Stanford
White Says Unjust Bills Are
Being Presented
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press
PITTSBURG, Aug. IA voluntary
petition in bankruptcy was filed after S
o'clock tonight in the federal court by
Attorney Charles Morschauser of New
York, representing Harry K. Thaw OF
this city, who is now confined in the
Duchess county, N. Y, Jail. In the pc
tition Thaw states his assets are $685.
o12.SS and his liabilities $453, ,14O.43.
Roger O'Meara, a well known Pitts
burg detective and personal friend of
the Thaw family, was appointed as re-
ceiver. His bond was placed at 100000
and John Newell and James w. Piatt,
two prominent business men of this
city, became security for Mr.. O'Meara
The most interesting information
given regarding the proceedings is to
be found In the petition for the appoint
ment of a receiver, in which it is as
serted the action is taken for the pur-
pose of preventing his property from
becoming dissipated in litigation over
claims, many of which are unjust.
The figures in the bankruptcy petit
tion shows this refers to the lawyers
and doctors.
Thaw states he is confined to Jail in
Duchess county, N. Y, and is likely to
be there for some time. He says some
of his creditors have commenced suits
against him and others are contemplat-
ing similar action. He is unable, he
says, to give the litigation his atten-
tion owing to the confinement.
Loans amounting to $191,500 from his
mother, Mrs. William Thaw, are not
disputed.
Among the disputed claims are the
following:
John B. Gleason, New York. $50,
Hartridge & Peabody, New York, $780,
900; J. j. Graham, Newburgh, N Y,
$2954; DR.. Hammond, New York, $1,000;

DORR RELEASED
ON BIG BONDS
BROKER DECLARES CHARGE A
"VICIOUS ATTACK"
GOES SECRETLY TO POLICE STA
TION IN AUTOMOBILE
Seats on the New York and Chicago
Exchanges, He Says, Are Worth
0,ooo-Taken from Train
at San Jose
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 6.-Fred-
erick Door, the stock broker with Of
fees in San Francisco, Los Angeles,
Salt Lake City, Denver and other cit
les, who was arrested at Los Angeles
yesterday on a charge of embezZlement
preferred by Captain H. H. Norwood,
client in this city, arrived here early
this afternoon in custody of Detective
! Grant Roberds of the Los Angeles po-
| lice department.
Dorr persuaded the officer to permit
him to leave the train at San Jose, and
the two came to San Francisco from
| there in an automobile, which enabled
the stock broker to arrange for bail
before he came to police headquarters
and was booked at the city prison.
He was released upon $4,000 bond
given by Harry N. Gray and w. F.
Porter.
The latter did not arrive at police
headquarters for some time, which
forced Dorr to spend an hour behind
the bars in the city prison.
When Porter, who is connected with
the Associated Oil company, finally
made his appearance and signed the
bond DORIS attorneys and local man
ager hurried to the Hotel Imperial,
where Police Judge Cabaniss accepted
it and made out the stock brokers' re-
lease.
In an interview in the city prison
with a representative of the Associated
Press Dorr declared the case was prop
erly a civil and not a criminal matter.
"It is a vicious attack by a man who
wishes preference over all other cred
itors.
MY liabilities are perhaps between
100000 and $125.000. I have not yet
had an opportunity to go over the
books.
"My seats upon the exchanges in New
York and Chicago alone are worth
100000.
II promised to settle with my credit
ors upon an equal basis for all and
favor none. This man Norwood wants
his money regardless of what the 9TH
ers get.
"There has been no embezzlement or
hypothecation of stocks His stock
was sold for his credit and transferred
in the customary manner.
81 am satisfied that when I get an
opportunity to go over the books and
find just how matters are that every
thing will be Strengthened out"
When Dorr failed to arrive on the
Los Angeles train at 11:45 it was ru
mored he got off at San Jose and was
coming the rest of the way in an au-
tomobile
Captain of Detectives Kelly sharply
criticised the Los Angeles police for
not holding Dorr there until the ar
rival of an officer from this city,
characterizing the action of the south
ern police as decidedly irregular"
Kelly sent men to the ferry and to
the county line with instructions to
arrest Dorr Immediately if he APP |
peared, regardless of the Los Angeles |
