of cut flowers and ferns with the
handle tied with a dainty bow of
yellow and white tu1le. Receiving

THE SAME GOODS IN DAWSON
WHY NOTHING CAN BE GAINED
BY BUYING IN NEW YORK.
r. w. Herman Points Out Advant-

Rent Makes Cheaper Prices.

+. w. Herman Points Out Advant-
ages of Home Trading. Cheaper
Rent Makes Cheaper Prices.
''When some of the men get the
idea out of their heads that the best
can only be had in New York there
will be an improvement in local
trade" said F. w. Herman to a
News reporter. Il only wish the
men of Dawson would give this mat
ter a thorough and painstaking in
vestigation;, that they would probe
into the subject from the raw goods
producer to the retail trade. 1t GER
tainly would be of great benefit to
the Dawson district furnishers.
The manufacturer who makes
the goods that are sold in New York
makes the same goods for Dawson.
There are not many big companies
that make these goods, and these all
know what the others are doing,
what the other fellow is buying
and what his designers are putting
out. The jobbers get their stuff
from all Of them, and we get ours
from the manufacturer or jobber.
The goods sold in Dawson come
from the same hands that made the
same goods for New York, and there
is but one difference-the goods are
sold in Dawson for less money than
they can be sold for in the larger
cities. Why? Rent.
Customer Pays Rent.
broadway stores rent for thous-
ands of dollars a week; Dawson S
stores (most of them) rent for not
much more than a thousand dollars
year. The customer here gets the
benefit OF the difference.
Every man living outside of the
city and in Dawson's territory ought
to give this matter serious consider
alton. When he goes on his vaca-
ton next time instead of buying
some creation in the east and being
stuck for the price they make strang-
ers pay let him get a mental ptct-
ure of the article and compare the
difference in price. I can save him
in some instances a fourth of his
money If he can't find the article
mere exactly like what he saw | can
place it in his home within ten
days
Means a Larger Stock.
Dawson loses money. the mer-
chants lose money, and the home
people lose money every wear

toner can get thinaG cheaper rrd
better thar at home It will mean
this difference for him-we will, be-
cause of the increased business caus-
ed by keeping this money at home,
be able to keep a larger stock for
the customer to select from and the
customer will have more money to
spend because there will be more
money in circulation at home. I

GREAT PUMPING SYSTEM.
(Mining Science)

The development of mine pumping within recent years has brought ahoul
 some interesting engineering prob lems It must be remembered that in all under ground work the engineer is hampered by close uarters. Much Of the machinery must be specially de signed to meet the conditions: there must be no part of any machine too large to go down the shaft and through the drifts to it's place. Arrangements must be made 10 keep the pumps run ming continuously. as the flow of wat er into mine is continuous and would soon overflow the workings if not disposed of.
 One Of the most notable undertak- inss in this line of engineering is the installation at tht Junction shaft of the Superior & Pittsburg Copper Co, at Bisbee Ariz-, of one of the largest nish-duty mine pumping sta- lions in the world. It has a nor nal capacity of 100000 gallons in 24 hours against 1000 feet head with provisions for l60,06 gallons ad- ditfonal when needed. The station. piping and accessories were designed and erected under the supervision oe Mir. W. E Mckee the company's sup erintendent of machinery.
 The plaus was designed to pump the water from the Briggs, Hoatson and Junction mines. Tae lower head against which this water may be pump

Who Wa. Touehsdi

The two players who know the se- cret remain in the room long enough for the trick to be made sure.
 One stands in a corner, and the other in the middle of the room calls out, "Ebenezer, do you hear?' Ebenezer says nothing. but listens attentively to hear who among the company speaks first. The other partner repeats the question. and still no answer. Some one will be likely to make remark soon. and then Ebenezer will rouse up and answer. "Yes. I hear" Then leave the room." says the other play CT, and Ebenezer goes out. The part. ner then makes great show of choos- ing which one he shall touch. but of course ends by touching the person who first spoke after the game began. This done, Ebenezer is called in to say who was touched. and every one is puzzled to know how he can tell.

PITS GOES ESl
 IAfTtR PATuI
HAS VALUABLE INVENTION FOR NEW ENGINE MOTION OF GREAT POWER

]. w. Pitts. the inventor of the Pitts motion who expcctcd to leave Monday for the east win leave Tues day instead. accompanied by Ms. Pitts. He will go to Washington to attend to matte-5 connected with his patents and to apply for a pa.cnt on a new invention, valve for gasoline engines which will open the exhaust when the pressure in the cylinder falls to a certain poin'.
 After attending to his business at Washington. Pitts will visit a nun Der of manufacturing plants in the east and will have an au; ,nobiis en zine built which will usa his motion on the driving shaft His plan is to have an engine with two cylinders with both piston rods connected with the same crank. one cylinder to be on one side of the shaft and the other cylinder 10 be directly opposite. Pitts stated tha. his arrangement of cylinders connected with his motion on the driving shaft will give a much greater piston travel than is usual in automobile engines and in cen sequence he estimates that two cy finders connected up according 10 his plan will develop the horse power now developed in automobile engines of four cylinders.
 The first engine will be built with four cylinders that will allow a ten inch stroke of the piston and the dia meter of the bores win be five inches. He has figured that he can develop 117 horse power with this engine. When placed on an automobile the cylinders will be horizontal instead of vertical as is the practice in the cars now being built with the con meeting rod motion.

From the Briggs and Hoatson, the water runs by gravity in a Hume through the drifts to the, Junction where is it pumped to the surface Tae collar of the Junction saafe is 124 feet below that of the Briggs and 150 feet below that of the Hoatson. thus the economy of this common station can be readily seen.
