A Musical Treat

Music lovers are promised rare
treat in the appearance at the First
Methodist Episcopal church tomor-
rowevening OF the wizard of the harp
Signor Alberto Salvi, famous Italian
musician and composer. That Signor
Salvi will appear here is due to the
fact that he had an open engagement
between dates for larger cities and
when the Music club of this city
learned Of the fact they at once took
steps to secure him for this city. He
will give select program Of music
and the interest in his appearance
has been keen from the time of the
first ennouncemtn Of his coming was
made. Tickets have sold fast though
there are still some to be had. The
tickets were placed at the popular
price Of one dollar.

cial impetus It had gained and be-
cause the New England people had
considerable interest in the ownership
of the Upper Lakes copper mines.
AT the present day, Ii is easily prov
en- that the better location for the
brass and copper rolling industry Is
at point considerably west OF Water
bury, Connecticut. because OF the
economy in the transportation of ma
tertals and the cheapness Of fuel and
electric current nearer the coal fields,
The metal work industry in Pitts
burgh, Youngstown, Dayton, Cincin-
natl, Columbus, Buffalo, st. Louis and
Chicago, has always been dependent
upon New England for their supply
Of brass and copper products This
market the demands of which are con.
tinually increasing, normally con-
sumes 100000 pounds of brass and
copper products per month or over
120,0oo,0e0 pounds annually. Under
former conditions, the usual profit on
these products was from &c to 21sc
per pound, but for several years has
amounted to from SC to 10c per pound
Thus 4 caa be seen that the profits
from the district tributary to the plant
OF the West Virginia Metal Products
Cooperation will range from $780,
600 TO S12,000,000 annually. There is
no brass and copper mill in the state
OF West Virginia.
The geographical position of West
Virginia gives 1t in every way mark
ed advantage as manufacturing and
distributing point for these products,
and presents from the standpoint OF
profitableness through the efficient
management which the company will
have, an excellent opportunity OF I'LL
tnga serious need of this district and
Offering unexcelled opportunities and
attractions TO an investor.
The coming Of this plant will mean
that Fairmont will have to provide
houses for many more families than
we now have. II the plant starts to
run within six months, and that is the
present hope, 1t probably will be oper-
attng at 100 per cent. capacity within
one year. There will have to be some
hustling II the housing situation is to
be prevented from retarding the
growth Of the new, industry. Moreover
1t Is not only the employees Of the
brass plant itself that must be thought
of. Ut Is the expectation that the loca.
ton here of a brass producing mill will
attract many OF the brass using indus
tries. They too will be benefited by
the same combination of circum-
stances that brought the big mill, and
In every case these smaller Industries
will bring skilled and highly paid la
Dor homes for which must be provid.

several other West Virginia business
men equally well known in the list

In addition to the advantages which
the mill here will have over those in
Connecticut in the way Of cheaper
fuel, power and freight charges it will
have the additional benefit of being
the most modern plant Of the kind in
America. This will mean a saving of
thousands of dollars even after It be-

The copper and brass rolling indus
try of the United States has been CEN
tered in Connecticut for over one hun

in Connecticut before zinc or copper
were mined in this country to any ap-
preciable extent, and the output in the
early days was consumed for buttons
and general household articles. Later,
when zinc was discovered in New Jer-
sey, and copper In the Upper Great

SECRET OF. SUCCESS
IS ADVERTISING
So Declares Men Who Has
Spent $5,OOO,OOO for
Publicity.

CHICAGO, May 26. - Thirty.two
years ago Henry G. Lytton opened
1.-THE Hub" on the northwest corner
Of State street and Jackson boulevard:
and certain wise merchants OF the city
chuckled heartily.
He had but $4,000. He borrowed
$4,000 more; and then before he even
opened the door he spent $1,000, al
most one-fourth Of his entire capital,
in-what do you suppose?
Newspaper advertising!
Yes. it was a great joke. Not only
had this raw youngster moved "'way
out to the edge OF town." where no.
body would ever find the place, but ne
Gust threw away rs per cent. of his
capital"
Today there is only one Of those
wise men in business. and he's on a
side street, and you hear little about
him. Mr.. Lytton's store has grown
into State street skyscraper; and in
those thirty-two years he has spent
more than $5,000,o00 in newspaper ad-
yertising.
Mr.. Lytton told the story at birth
day dinner the other night in the
Blackstone hotel. He's one of those
wiry, restless, active captains Of In.
dustry you read about, with wide
shoulders and prodigious fists. He's
more than seventy, yet on each side of
the bald furrow in the center OF his
head the hair is Jet black, with only a
few white hairs showing.
at may seem strange" he said. ''but
the people believe what they read in
the newspapers. That's what makes
advertising in the newspapers so val
liable. have always made 1t a point
to state the truth exactly, never to
exaggerate. would rather have the
customer little surprised when he
looked at the goods than a little dis
appointed.
I've tried advertising on bil1boards,
in street cars, in magazines, and PAM
phlets. in novelties. once sent up
flock of balloons with letters tied
to them, and prizes-$5oo, 500 and
other awards-to the finders.
II stuck UP sign posts all over the
city, with hubs on the top Of them,
you know. and the street names. Well,
some of them went for kindling wood:
some were torn down by the city when
they put up street signs. tried many
other ways Of advertising-but the
newspapers proved by all means the
best, and kept everlastingly at it..
Advertising is to the building up of
business what steam is to COM
merce." \

HISTORIAN OF '98
REV. p. F. kAVANAGH, o. F. NJ,
DEAD-WAS NOTED WRITER
AND LECTURER.

Rev. Patrick Fidelis Kavanagh, o.
F. NJ, the historian of '9S, died recent
ly at the Franciscan Friary, Wexford,
Ireland.
Born in March, 1884, the deceased
was a son of the late Laurence Ka-
vanagh, shipoWner and merchant,
Wexford. He was educated in the
Christian Brothers Schools and St.
Peters College, Wexford, and pursued
his theological studies at st. Isidore's,
Rome, where he was ordained in 1856.
He began his missionary career in
Wexford and afterwards visited North
and South America and Australia on
two occasions. While in the latter
country he assisted at the marriages
OF the late John Redmond and Major
Willie Redmond.
On returning from Australia, Father
kavanagh met Froude, the historian,
and had memorable interview with
him. Father Kavanagh spent some
years in Waterford, Galway, Carrick-
on-Suir and Cork. In the latter place
he spent over twenty years, and there.
as indeed wherever his spiritual labors
brought him, he was beloved and ven
Grated as a sanity scholar and patriot
priest The last ten years of his life
were spent in his native Wexford. He
was well known as lecturer, preacher
and Ttterateur His lectures, particu-
larly those of a historic character,
reached in elegance of diction and
force of delivery the very highest
form. Amongst many national works,
poems and prose, his history of the
instruction of '9S is perhaps the best
known, and it gained him a wide
spread reputation as patriot and
scholar.

OUR NEW ARCHBISHOP.

\ thrice cordial and respectful
welcome to our newly appointed
Chief Shepherd! Rome, in her
wisdom, has selected the Right
Reverend Austin Bowling to guide
the destinies of the largest do
cese in the Northwest. st. Paul,
ever noted for loyalty to the Holy
See, receives the news with sub
mission, joy and acquiescence.
The power and love Of Rome reach
out to the uttermost bounds Of the
earth, search out each individual
soul, and direct pastor to guard
and cherish the spiritual welfare
Of that soul. Such is the mission
which now rests upon the Shout
ders Of our new Archbishop.
-Four full months have elapsed
since God called to Himself the
veteran champion of Holy Mother
Church, the venerated Archbishop
Ireland. Months these were of
sorrow and Of expectation, Of un-
certainty as to whom the Sover-
eign Pontiff might select to pre-
side over the fortunes of the
Church in this portion Of the vine
yard. God has sent a man who
is known for his high priestly
qualities as well as for eminent
scholarship, for amiability Of
character and quiet strength Of
decision. In the words of one who
knows him well: Bishop BOWL
ing is a prelate who endears him
self to all, and who gets things
done quietly and without show. "
An able administrator, a cultured
prelate, man among men: such
is the outline of the picture which
his friends present to us of Bishop
Bowling.
The Catholics Of st. Paul, both
clergy and laity, unite in offering
to the new Archbishop the SINGER
est sentiments Of respectful hon.
age and of wholesouled felicita-
tions. May his coming among us
be marked by joy, his abiding
here, by mutual cooperation in
the glorious work Of upbuilding
the Church Of God.
In unison with the various ele-
ments in the diocese, The Catholic
Bulletin, founded as official organ
by the great Archbishop Ireland,
raises it's voice in hearty and sin
cere welcome, ever ready to fol-
low the path that shall be traced
out for it by his present successor,
Most Reverend Austin Bowling.
