the swiftly moving changes and the
prime mover in the deal which was
completed yesterday. and through
which the Hoffman house will be but
memory.
The Hoffman house and the Abe
marie hotel adjoining it in Broadway
at Twenty-Fourih St, were owned by
the Kinney estate. Any one who has
smoked Sweet CapOraI cigarets will
know the name OF Kinney. The prin-
cipal heirs are Mrs. La Montague of
Paris; Warren Kinney and Morris
Kinney of New York.
The Albemarle hotel, which was
built As years ago, was bought 10
years later by Mr.. Kinney for ST.
100000. The two properties, and the
price at which the sale of both hotels
and the adjoining property at No.
W. TWentY-FOurth St, Ma-S made yes
terday. is said to be less than $1,000
600. In fact, it is understood that
the Kinney heirs are to receive ST.
100000. OF course, they have en-
jOyed the enormous profits of these
properties While they were in their
prime.
The plot is little more than $4,000
square feet. The present Hoffman
house was built only seven years ago,
one of the most modern hotel struc-
lures In the city. at a cost OF $780,
600. Yet in less than a month IL is

Douglas Robinson and Charles 5.
Brown & Co, with Louis ]. HorOwitz,
president of the ThompsOn-S tarrett
Co, represented the purchasers, who
are yet TO form a corporation. He
said his company was not the pur-
chaser but that it would erect for the
purchasers a 16-story loft building on
the property.
Although the Albemarle was closed
on Feb. is, one tenant has refused to
move and last night when he heard
of the sale he announced his purpose
of holding his rooms until the wreck
ers tore the roof of.
This man is Col Edward Barry Will
cox. dealer in factory properties, who
is 90 years old, and who has had the
same rooms for II years. He said
he would not give up his rooms, which
had been his home SO long, until they
dragged him out.
Pierre Lorillard and W. D. Elliott,
OF counsel to the Standard OIL Co..
who has occupied rooms in the Abe
marie for many years, moved into the
Hoffman house when the Albemarle
was closed on Feb. -. but Col Wilcox
would not go with them.
Charley Noonan ran the cigar
counter for years and is said to have
retired with a large fortune, follow
ing other ventures.
Grover Cleveland stopped at the
Hoffman house often, and most Of the

INITIATIVE NEED
Of TRADE WORLD
Men Must Be Able to Start
Things Themselves If They
Would Succeed, Says |. 6.
Weir at Ad-SeII Banquet.

DO not ask for success. demand it
from the world" was the advice given
by /. G. Weir Of the Round Oak
Stove Co. at the monthly banquet OF
the Ad-Sell leavgue held Thursday
evening at the oliver hotel.
The 81 WIZ idea was forcefuly
presented by !. G. Weir in his speech
on the subject, Initiative and the
Power Of Success, which was pro-
nOunced by Pres't Trowbridge to be
the best address presented by a mem
Der OF the club this year.
Mr. Weir, who is an officer in the
Round Oak Stove Co. of DOwagiac,
Mich, outlined the system BY which
his company gets results from their
statesmen, telling of some of the basic
principles of business success by
which companies are able to meet
keen competition and succeed in spite
or handicaDs.
Business is a Fight
Business" declared Mr.. Weir lis
a fight against refrigeration, and the
heart of this fight is initiative. Init
alive made Napoleon dictator of Eu-
rope. and his spirit. spreading con-
tagiously TO others, drew around him
a company Of men who would Will
ingly die that Napoleon might con-
quer.
Initiative carried the message to
Garcia and freed America. 1t can
make any company successful If II
permeates the manufacturing, sales
and advertising forces Of that COM
pany. The emplOye who, being told
Of a thing to be done and being in
structed to do it, Obeys orders, is a
faithful servant. The man who, with
out being told Of a thing to be done
and without being told to do it, ac-
cOmplishes the thing, has the initia
tive that will lift him above his fell
low workers.
Confidence. ambition. courage and
positive qualities of a like nature are
the only things that will bring sue
cess to a man or a company. Every
salesman should use only positive
talking points, leaving the negative
arguments of fear, dOubtfulness and
uncertainty to the failures in the
business world"
illustrates Talk.
L. b. Quinn, manager of the man
ufacturers' sales department of the
Sherwin- Williams Paint Co, present
ed an interesting description of the
management of the large staff of
men employed by his company. His
talk was accompanied by motion pic
lures of the various processes in the
making of paints and oils. The pic
lures showed the mines from which
are obtained the lead, and the fac
tories in which the various articles
are manufactured.
Motion pictures were also shown
of the Dodge cOmpany's annual out
ing at SpringbroOk park and OF the
plant at Mishawaka. A short descrip-
tive lecture by Charles r. Trowbridge,
advertising manager of the Dodge
company and president Of the Ad-Sell
league. accompanied the pictures.
Pres't Trowbridge announced the
appointment of an executive board for
the league, which will be composed Of

PAY LATER

The New Boss is made to save oil, not merely to
turn it. A gallon of oil will burn "a hours in the
New Boss compared to 16 or Is hours in most other
stoves and will. give more heat per hour. This
means a tremendous saving in the cost of fuel, which
would make the New Boss cheap at twice it's price, as
it will pay for itself in fuel saved in a very short time.
The intense blue flame of the New Boss Oil Stove
plays right against the bottom of your cooking uten-
sils. This direct action of the flame on your pans
gives much quicker results than can be obtained with
stoves where the fame is a foot or more away from
the cooking surface.

Due West, June 20.
On Monday afternoon, Miss Leila
Nance entertained most charmingly
in compliment to Miss Julia Helen
Galloway, the bride of the week. On
arriving the guests were given a
lovers examination, which created a
great deal of merriment. After
everybody had successfully passed
the examination, the guests were
asked to draw plans for the brides
house, and she selected the n she
liked best. The guests were then
invited out on the lawn to help the
bride search the rose bushes for bird
eggs. The bride succeeded in find
ing a large number of packages which
contained beautiful handkerchiefs,
towels, centerpieces and other arti-
Giles; while the packages were being
united a tempting ice course was
served. Just before the guests left,
the "pie of fortune" was passed, and
each read her fortune on a slice of
pie.
Miss Galloway was the honoree
again on Tuesday morning when Mrs.
L. C. Galloway entertained for her
at an elaborate luncheon. The hos
tess entertained on her spacious
porch. The guests were asked to
write a list of articles in the brides
trousseau, beginning with the letters
in the sentence, "Wish you we'll"
After the reading of the most COM
plete of these lists, the bride was re-
quested to come to a miniature well
in one corner of the porch and draw
a bucket full of wishes that the
guests had made for her. AS she
did so, Mrs. Julia Grier pulled an
other cord, which tore open a bag
Of rice suspended from the ceiling,
and thus showered the bride with rice
the symbol of good wishes. After
the reading Of the wishes, a delight
full thr~ee-course luncheon was served.
On Thursday afternoon Miss Julia
Helen Galloway became the wife of
Mr.. Ernest Wright Neal, of Kings
Mountain. The house was beauti-
fully decorated with ferns and
Shasta daisies. The ceremony was
performed in the parlor, one side of
which was cut off by massive white
columns and banks of ferns. Prompt
ly at eight o'clock, Mrs. De Almond
Kirkpatrick, of Charlotte, sang 90,
Promise Me" and Gail For You"
Then a number of trained voices
sang a wedding chorus as the bridal
party UGSCGlluGQ lHG SldlTS anu SILGI-
ed the parlor. First came the ush-
ers, Messrs Magill and Galloway.
Next came the bridesmaids, Miss
Leila Nance and Miss Neal, carrying
candles. After them came Misses
Virginia Galloway and Agnes Dew
lin. The groom then entered with
his best man, Mr.. Harmon. Closely
following them came the dame of
honor, Mrs. De Almond Kirkpatrick,
carrying a basket full of Shasta
daisies and ferns.
The tiny little ring bearer, Miss
Marion Kirkpatrick, entered bearing
the ring on a silver tray. The bride
entered on the arm of her maid of
honor, Miss Lena Barr Galloway.
She joined the groom in front of the
Rev. Jonathan Galloway, of Gas
