Com N ent ., merchants

celebration we called upon a
number of the merchants of the
the city and put this question to
them elbow did you find business
on the 4th and the day or SO
previous?" and the following is
what we learned:
@. w. Frost ''Our business
was better this 18th than it has
been in eight or nine years it
was a whopper."
Anil Scantland-- "Could not
have handled a bigger crowd.
We run out of different lines
early in the day and it was the
biggest day we have ever had
since engaging in business.
Since the 1st we have noticed
IN increase in business every
day and it has been more than
surprising to US.
A. I. Lien:-. "We had one of
the biggest runs in the history
of our business career only
exceeded it by one other day
and that was when the mills
we're running night and day
and business conditions general
iy were better"
A. Paulson:-- sour business
was almost double that of what
we expected. 1t was surprising
where all the money came from.
We have n oticed a good increase.
I. Berman:-- Business pre-
vious to the 4th was big and we
could not have waited on a much
larger crowd. 1t was way
ahead of last year, despite the
fact that all of the manufacturing
institutions did not pay before
the 18th.
George Mertz:. Business
was about as good as a year ago.
Amos M. Hansen:-- "Our line
did not include 4th of July goods
but nevertheless we enjoyed a
good business previous to the
4th and we believe that we will
notice an increase.
VIM. Goedeke:.- ''We enjoyed
good business during the 4th.
Larson Bros "Our business
was good previous to the 4th.
Charles Peterson: eve
carry no 4th Of July goods to
speak of but our business was
good. Business conditions
we're not as good year ago
but nevertheless we had just as
good, if not a better business.
We believe that business will be
better for all business men from
this time on"
Clarence Wright Business
has simply been i'm mense with
me-"
M. A, Sprague:--"Our custom.
ers generally speak favorably of
their trade and seem to be well
satisfied with the conditions
existingsince the saloons closed.
Speaking for myself l am ex
pecting prosperous year for
the merchants and the banks"
w. F. Bryce Business
couldn't have been finer--t was
simply immense.
G.. A. Hering:-.' Exceeded our
last years business. We were
rushed all day long,"
M. E. Doyle:-- Business was
about the same as year ago.
Our line does not include 4th of
July goods"
George r. Moore:-. 1.-the 4th
of July celebration was simply
i'm mense and made one feel
proud of the town. IT was one
of the incest celebrations | have
seen in years. AS to conditions
about our mill the Monday after
the 4th can say that there was
not a man about our plant that
was under the influence of
| LIQUOR and can notice a big
difference over other Mondays
when the saloons were operating.
| I believe it will prove a good
thing for the CITY,
John Joanis:-- Business was
simply immense. I could not
have handled larger crowds"
John w. Gibson:--"It was the
best 4th of July celebration

CHOICE
BY HOLLAND.

MANUFACTURERS are of
IN two kinds-the honest
and dishonest. The one
makes the best goods, the
other makes the worst. Each
has his own particular
scheme Of life.
The honest manufacturer
aims to make the best goods
he can and to advertise them
so that all the world will
know of their merits. He
courts investigation. He
wants customers to hold him
to q rigid accountability.
The dishonest manufacture
er hopes to profit by decep-
ton. He produces an article
that will be offered as "just
as good" though he knows it
is inferior. He seeks to make
a larger profit, than the hon.
est manufacturer, and this
larger profit is necessary be-
cause he has to find new GUS
toners day after day.

WHO ADVERTISE

this could have been the man missing

At the white House this morning,

could identify the photograph. Execu-

had seen the man. There was no record
at the White House Of any important

however, declare their willingness to

, ACCIDENT VICTIM
:: Z ress, Well Known in Society
Here, Suffers Fracture of
Skull in Runaway.

Mrs. Belle Howell Bohn, daughter of
Rear Admiral J. A. Howell, United
States Navy, retired, we'll known in
Washington aud Virginia society, and
prominent in the theatrical world, is in
9 serious condition at Providence Hos
pital with a compound fracture of the

having stood the operation well.
Mrs Bonn was a well known horse
woman. She was driving alone yester-
day when her horse ran away None
OF the details of the accident are known.
Mrs Bohn was found unconscious in
rhe Bethel road and taken to a house
on the estate of the late w. w. Finley,
Of the Southern Railway. The buggy
in which she had been driving was
found kicked to splinters. Friends Of
Mrs. Bohn summoned medical assistance
and 1t was determined to bring her to
Washington. DR.. Mitchell was notified
Of her coming and he operated at
o'clock, an hour after her arrival. 1t
IS believed by physicians that Mrs. Bonn
has a good chance for recovery. In addi-
ton to a compound fracture of the skull
she is suffering from injuries to her face,
hands and feet.

is prominent socially here, her father

AS the result of Investigations car.

ment of labor among 1000 household.
ers, il was found that the worker with
no fah,fly spends very nearly the same
sum weekly on food as the heads of
families, but saves in rent, clothing
and other items, and at each week end
has surplus of 80 cents, says the
London Globe. Apparently he buys
more Injuries in the way of food
than his coworker, who has a family,
and his average expenditure on cloth
ing is also higher. The family man
pays 81 more rent a week, II cents
more on food, % cents on clothing and
G7 cents on other items. His fuel
and light expenses, however, are rela'
lively lighter to tho extent of 20
cents per week. The worker, however,
has no surplus at the week end The
figures generally indicate, as may be
expected, the favorable position, as
far as expenditure is concerned, of the
families possessing few, If any, chill

GIVING THE PLUG HIS DUE
Steadygoine, Sensible Qualities Are
Not Always Accorded the Recos-
milton That They Deserve.

Don't make fun of the plug. He may
be slow and awkward and never get
to the stable until dark, but he is the
fellow who in the end will bring home
the coin, says a Kansas City writer.
The plug horse that pulls the lister
all day in the field puts more money
in the bank for the honest farmer
than the race horse that goes out and
turns half in 0: so fiat and then loafs
for two weeks waiting Tor another
race to be matched. The old plug
goes out In sunshine and storm and
pulls in a few dollars every week, but
the race horse waits for the day when
the track is good and then generally
loses more than he wins. The steady
old plug keeps the wolf from the door,
while the race horse causes the mort
gage TO be foreclosed.
Just so with the man. Pin your
faith to the plug who keeps eternally
at it; the fellow who gets up every
morning and does go, much and Is
ready to do 1t again next day. He
lays up more shining dollars In the
bank than the swift sport who lies
around all summer waiting for luck
to come along and turn a stream Of
silver. into his pocket. One cackling
Plymouth Rock hen Is worth a dozen
screaming eagles when 1t comes to
paying off the mortgage. The plug
is the fellow who steadies the ship
and acts as ballast when the boat be-
gins to rock. The plug Is the fellow
who lives contentedly and long and
when he passes away the local paper
says, "He leaves his family In COM
