Ali classes of business men can take
a leaf out of the book of experience of
managers of great enterprises like
Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey
shows, and then profit by them in ad-
vertising. There are no shrewder
business men in the world, and now we
are informed these enlightened indi-
viduals are to abandon the big, highly
colored, sensational bill board and
window lithograph advertising and
rely more fully upon the most legiti-
mate method of advertising, the news-
papers. They have found out by dear
experience that posters and lithographs
are an expensive method, and do not
give as good results as newspapers.
Bound and gagged, the maiden was
thrust into a gunny sack, and unable to
move or scream, felt herself carried up
a flight of stairs from the dungeon, and
then driven down the street st a rapid
rate. Ineffegtually she struggled to
release herself from the gag. Alas!
she was bound too securely. Finally
the conveyanee stopped. She was
again carried into a building, and faint-
unmasked, took the gag from her
mouth, his eyes gleaming like coals of
fire through his black mask, released
her and hissed through his tightly
clenched teeth: “There,, my pretty
bird, scream and yell -as long as you
like, no human ear will ever reach you.
You are in my power. Do you hear?
Totally within my power.” “Where
am I?” she gasped. “In a store that
never advertises,” was the cruel re-
sponse. “Alas! Alas!” she moaned.
“No power on earth can save me; no
one will look for me} here,” and the
poor girl fainted. —Ex.

Meyersdale’s Fine New Theater.
We attended the opening of the
Donges theater, in Meyersdale, last
Thursdey evening, and we must say
that we were greatly surprised atthe
magnitude and fineness thereof. Mey-
ersdale now has a theater that is mod-
ern in every respect, and it compares
very favorably with theaters in large
cities. The seating capacity is 1000,
and the manager, Oscar Allen, is thor-
oughly up to date in that position.
The opening play was “His Majestey
and the Maid,” a very interasting trag-
edy that was well rendered by a strong
company. A crowd of Salisbury people
were in attendanee, and all were well
pleased.
We thank Manager Allen for press
courtesies, and \. B. Stevanus for a
free sleigh ride to Meyersdale.
A COSTLY MISTAKE.

are gentle yet thorough. 5c, at E.H.

The Pipe Organ Recital.
The opening recital of the magnifi-
cent $2,000-Estey pipe organ, recently
installed in St. John’s Reformed church,
corner Ord and Gay streets, took place
last Friday evening. The audience
was very large, and many people were
in atte ndanee from neighboring towns
and villages. The program was a most
delightful one, and people are loud in
praise thereof.
The organist, Mr. Earl Byron Byers,
of Omaha, Neb , is a musician of great
ability, and each rendition was en-
thusiastically applauded.
The soloist, Miss Emma Craig Saw-
hill. of Allegheny, Pa., is the possessor
of a voice of rare sweetness and per-
fection of tone. Her solos were the
delight of #11 present, and the round
after round of applause that the charm-
ing little lady received, amply attested
the pleasure of the audience.
The following program was rendered :
PART 1.
(a) *Fantasia”.............. GUILMONT.
Cb) “Andantino”... ........... LEMARE.

In addition to the printed program,
Mr. U.D, Miller, a violinist of fine abil-
ity, nlso rendered several very fine se-
lections with organ accompaniament,
which were received with great ap-
plause. )
Tne installation of the magnificent
organ was made possible through the
generosity of Mr. Andrew Carnegie,
together with the energy of the con-
sistory, congregation and friends. It
has a total of 28 stops and 816 pipes.
Thé material used in the construction
of the organ.is of the very highest
grade, and none but the most expert
workmen were employed in its con-
struction. It is a credit to our town
and to all who contributed to its pur-
chase. The instrument was purchased
through the agency of Reich & Plock,
the well known and reliable Meyers-
dole dealers in musical instraments.
