Gas COMPANY'S WINDOW
AROUSES MUCH INTEREST

The Wilmington Gas Company is
wide-awake TO the advantages Of
using It's Market street window, No.
S27 Market street, as medium OF
advertising The ideas are original
and are frequently copied by some
Of the larger companies throughout
the country.
The present window was designed
with the idea Of showing the by-pro-
ducts of coal, including clinkers and
ashes, which are paid for by the coal
user and which are wholly wasted
when the coal Is used in heating or
cooking, whereas in the manufacture
and delivery Of gas all these by-pro-
ducts are separated and utilized for
commercial purposes and those who
are fortunate enough TO use gas are
compelled TO pay only for the gas
that is extracted from this coal or IN
other words, the hydrogen, which is
the only part of the coal which they
could possibly use.
In one corner of the window is a
miner with a shovel, who Is named
Jack and pile of coal. pile of clink-
ers, pile of ashes. bottle of tar. bot
tie OF pitch. bottle Of sulphur. bot
tie Of moth balls, all labelled as COM
ing from the coal that Jack dug or
in the words of Mother Goose would
read something like this:
This is Jack"
"This is the hole that Jack dug.
"This Is the coal that came from
the hole that Jack dug
"These are the ashes that came
from the coal that came from the hole
that Jack dug"
"These are the clinkers that came
from the coal that came from the
hole that Jack dug"
"This is the tar that came from the
coal that came from the hole that
Jack dug"
"This is the the ammonia that came
from the coal that came from the
hole that Jack dug
This is the sulphur that came
from the coal that came from the
hole that Jack dug"
This Is the unpurfed gas that
came from the coal that came from
the hole that Jack dug"
These are the analine dyes that
came from the tar that came from
the coal that came from the hole that
Jack dug"
"These are the mothballs that came
from the tar that came from the coal
that came from the hole that Jack
dug"
This is the iron oxide that is used
for purifying the gas that came from
the coal that came from the hole that
Jack dug"
This is the Pentane used for test
, ing the gas that came from the coal
that came from the hole that Jack
/ dug"
"This is the purified gas that came
from the coal that came from the hole
/ that Jack dug"
"This Is the gas range that uses
the purified gas that came from the
coal that came from the hole thai
: Jack dug"
This IS the woman, neither wrinkled
nor worn;
She sleeps a little later each morn
She cooks with the gas that comes
from the coal
That comes from the hole that Jacl
dug"

Dudley Field Malone, collector OF
the port, met the Sayres aboard the
revenue cutter. After a short stay at
Washington, the Sayrcs go to Will
Jamestown, Mass, to reside.
Some OF the first cabin passengers
on the Majestic filed protest with

Senator Works addressed the crowd.
He stated that the chamber of COM

by the speakers of the Equity ex-
change, and that they felt they had a
right to defend themselves from the

He then went on to accuse George

Equity Exchange of Minneapolis. of
misrepresentation and attempts to de-
ceive the farmers of the northwest.
He brought out general accusations,
and stated that Mr.. Grover. who fol-
