A quite lengthy article appears in
the July number of the Erie railroad
mans magazine concerning the busi-
ness at the local Erie transfer. Ac-
cording to the statements made, the
refrigerator business at the transfer is
very much larger than last year, being
almost double. The number of cars
handled is double and the amount OF
ice used is very nearly twenty per
cent. greater. All of the work at the
transfer bids fair to make the largest
amount of business of this nature al
this point that is done at any of the
the towns along the line.

Letter to ]. 3. wingard,
Lexington. s. G.

Dear Sir: The real test Of paint
is how many square feet will gallon
of it cover? And all the paints swear
they cover 800 square feet two coats.
Mildly, they prevaricabe.
i. H. Ferchaud; builder, 1108 Dupre
ST, New Orleans, covered 1900 square
feet with three gallons Devoe last
year; and paints all his jobs Devoe.
That's how the tale gets to US.
He doesn't say, whether one or two
coats; if one, there's nothing wonder
full in it; if two; they must have very
small feet in New Orleans.
Devoe Doesn't stop at 300 feet; but
over 600! Most paints, we suppose,
can be stretched to 3Cc feet, but
they're highly thin; they cover we'll
150 to 2dO.
When w. r. Watkins, Lott, Texas,
painted his house before, it took l3
gallons; Devoe 7gallons. That shows
the strength of the paints:
w. B. McCluney painted house IN
Crystal Springs, Miss, to test two pure
paints; one coat 6 gallons Deyoe; the
other coat 10 gallons of a New Orleans
paint. That shows the strength OF
the paints.
Surfaces differ: one takes more, an
other takes less; Devoe covers more

of the noted battles in which those fam
Gus leaders participated.
Mrs. Palmer was born in North Caro-
lima but spent her girlhood in Hiawa-
tia, Ga. Her husband fought in the
Mexican war. He died before the civil
war broke out and Mrs. Palmer was
left with one child. She was living at
Chattanooga, Tenn, when the sick and
wounded Confederate soldiers were be-
ing brought in from the front and their
woeful lack of proper attention appeal

NEW YORK HORSE SHOW.
This Is Opening of a Gay Season at
the Metropolis.

New York, Nov. Swell known
persons from many cities throughout
the country, were here today to at
tend the opening of the horse show,
the registers in many of the hotels
reading like the social directories of
a score OF cities.
opening the social season, the accom-
modations of all hotels have been en-
gagged ahead for dinner parties, recep-
tions and other functions. The fine
residences of Fifth avenue and other
exclusive thoroughfares are now open
for the winter and this week marks
brilliant season.
An incident of the horse show is
the presence here of dressmakers and
milliners from all sections of the
country and more so than on any pre-
vious occasion. They spend consid-
cradle sums in attending the exhibit
in Madison Square Garden and in Wis
iting the large hotel dining rooms
where they may be seen sketchine
costumes and hats to be copied later
on in their own shops.
The west is taking a conspicuous
part in this horse show. Added to
the usual exhibitors of fancy riding
and carriage horses are the great
breeders in the middle west of heavy
draft horses and these animals for the
first time, are assigned to a prominent
place in the weeks program. The
draft horse exhibit promises to be-
come an important commercial feat
ure of the annual show.

THEY LOST $4,000.
Tried to Introduce Popular
Amusements in South America.

Washington. Nov. s.-Merrygo-
round, shoot-the-chutes, scenic rail
ways and other features familiar in
the amusement parks of the United
States do not appeal to the people of
South America.
This inference is drawn by the de-
partment of commerce and labor
from a report just received from ].
J. Schleichta, United States vice con-
sui at Rio De Janeiro. The report is
a recital of the financial woes of an
American syndicate which attempted
to capture the small change OF those
who attended the Pan-Am erlcan
medical congress- The syndicate
which employed some fifty theatrical
and amusement feature specialists, is
said to have lost $4,000 through the
lack of appreciation of the South
Americans attending the conference.
The belief is expressed that some
time will elapse before other ad-
venturers in the amusement field Will
invade that section of the western
hemisphere.

HOW GERMANY DOES IT.
Captures Trade by Teaching Her
Youth Foreign Languages.

Washington, Nov. Systematic
training of the youth in foreign
laguages in the opinion of Thomas
H. Norton. United States consul at
Chemnitz, Is responsible for the rapid
forward movement of Germany in
capturing the foreign markets of the
world. This plan, the American
representative reports, is being
adopted with increasing enthusiasm
and success in the principal industrial
and commercial centers of the en-
pire. Provision for the teaching of
English and French is made in those
schools that correspond with the
grammar and high schools of this
country, and the number of students
taking the courses is rapidly growing
each year.
In Chemnitz, the consul declares, it
is regarded as absolutely necessary
that every young man entering the
counting room of a factory, bank or
commercial house shall have COM
mand of one or two languages other
than his own native tongue. This
same policy is pursued now in the
leading business cities throughout the
empire.

New York Miscreants Poison Horses
if Payment Is Refused.

New York, Nov. S.-More than $50
valuable horses in East side stables
have been poisoned to death in the
last few months by a gang of black
mailers for whom the police are Gag
erly searching. Detectives declare
that owners of horses in that section
of the city have already paid SO, 900
to the blackmailers and that their
animals have SO far enjoyed i'm
munity.
Dr. H. Stark, chief inspector for
the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals, declares that
while more than ESQ and less than 500
horses have been killed by poisoning
more than 1000 animals have been
given poison but saved.
The method of the blackmailers is
to demand, through a letter, several
hundred dollars from the proposed
victim on penalty of having his horses
killed. After the second demand has
been ignored one or more of the vic
TINS horses die. Later it is found
that the horses have been given ar

states that he will offer $125,000 for the

With three offers from California two

a record breaking purse will be offered

that when the bids are formally sub
