Public Comfort Stations.

One of the longest and most impOr-
tant municipal strides of the last dec
ade is the increased and increasing
number Of public comfort stations,
and still more are needed, for, after
all, the world is for those who live in
it. European countries are far in ad-
vance of America in these public con
veniences and in this most important
phase of public improvement. There
is no question as to the necessity of
these stations, but town authorities do
not always know or will not always
see what is best for the whole people
Too often city fathers have indi-
vidual fads and lose sight of comfort
for women and children, to say moth
ing of the visitor or the rural resident
not used to city or town life. The
question of public comfort stations is
an all important one and will force it
self upon our attention more and more
in the immediate future.

PASSED FROM THIS LIFE
Miss IiIy StOner,

Died, on Thursday, Aug. 26, at the
home of her aunt, in this city, Miss
Lily Stoner, age 10 years, Is days.
The funeral took place from st. Paul's
Catholic church, on Saturday morning,
at 10 o'clhck, and was one Of the most
largely ever attended from the church,
a great many being unable to gain
entrance. The high regard in which
she was held by the members of the
community and their deep sympathy
were shown no more by the great
number present, than by their respect
full and mournful expressions, many
showing theirfeelings in their tears.
Requiem High Mass was sung by
her sOrrOwing companions in the choir,
Of which she was a leading member,
and where she will be sadly missed.
Father O'Keefe conducted the services,
and delivered an earnest and feeling
sermon, which was the more effective,
as his remarks about the life and
character of the deceased were but just
and fully merited.
Miss Lily Stoner was born on Aug.
s, 1890. When two and one half years
of age her parents Benjamin and Mary
StOner died from diphtheria. Her aunt
Miss Catherine Mccormick took charge
of her, and cared for her faithfully,
until she was called to better world.
She was given every advantage of
religious instruction and liberal educa-
ton which adorned her young woman
hood with those virtues and attributes
of mind and body, which made her
Ioveable and endeared her to her
friends Her loss will. be felt most of
all by her aunt who was her constant
companion and confidential guide. She
leaves one brother William Stoner to
mourn her death.

A Piano at a Remarkat

n PIANO at q remarkable II1CS.
Chicago's largest music house, Lyon
and Healy, announces a gigantic altera-
ton sale of pianos. Nearly 1000 splen
did instruments are offered without
reserve until all are sold. In this stock
are a great many standard and well
known makes.
It is necessary to move this great
stock of pianos in order to make room
for carpenters who are replacing floor
ing.
In Upright pianos new instruments
may be had as low as $145. This is an
unprecedented opportunity and one that
may not occur again. Any piano not
proving entirely satisfactory may be re-
turned at their expense.
Arrange a visit Of inspection to their
warerooms, corner Wabash Avenue and
Adams Street, this week so as to avoid
disappointment.

Trade Booming Hints.

Respect the time Of commercial gen
uemen; also your own.
Opportunity may rap at thy door but
once. Be not slow or half hearted with
thy welcome
The business man who doesn't adj
yertise because times are hard' is
like the ostrich who buries its head
in the sand to escape the hunter.
Lost opportunities are never adver-
tised in the lost and found columns.
But new opportunities are created by
the right kind of advertising.

RAILROADS AND DOUGLAS.
CFrom Douglas Internationally

(From Douglas Internationally
 That Douglas is destined to become one of the rai,rod centers of the south west cannot be doubted by anyone having knowledge of the wonderfully rich mineral country tributary to this city. Douglas already has railroad con nection with the east And west and is practically on trunk line. That the Southern Pacific will eventually build its line into this city there is not a shadow of doubt and 1t now looks that this line would reach the city in the very near future. That Douglas will have connection by three lines into Mexico is assured almost; concessions have been secured by the Cananea Consolidated Copper company for line west from Douglas. via Cananea to Imuris which would give us direct line to Guaymas. This concession also carries a line from Douglas east through the Sierfa Mad re mountains to connection with the Mexican Central which would give Douglas a straight line to the City of Mexico. Douglas already has line south to Nacozari and the Southern Pacific is building south from there through a wonderfully rich mineral country, found n the Moctezuma, Sah- uaripa and the Ures mining districts.
 With all these Mexico lines bringing ore and metal to the international line at Douglas it is quite sure that Doug las will attract practically all the rail- 1 roads now reaching Fl Paso which now have no direct connection with the Pacific coast. Any railroad which should seek the coast frumEr Paso would come by the way of Douglas be cause of the excellent grade, it being conceded that the Fl Paso & South western has one of the easiest grades enjoyed by any line in the west. ac. cording to length.
 | V hCthcE tDccc AdlfOduS all ftdcu Douglas today, next week. or next year Douglas is in a position to com. mand them sooner or later The building of the Southern Pacific from connection with the main line to the north sil probably be the first railroad newcomer; that line will oper up no new country as we already have Ene north through the valley. but ths co--1.ss of the Southern Pacific to Douglas will give to this city the ad. vantage of direct connection with one of the greatest railroad systems of the country. reaching almost every section of the country.
 The building of new railroads tc Douglas will stimulate all kinds of in dustries and it is not ridiculous tc express the belief that in time thi. city will be the home not only of great copper smelters. but of capper refiner les and manufactures as well.
