tho Jobber makes his profit, tho manufacturer
makes his profit, and tho consumer pays for all
these and the newspaper advertising also.
What does It cost to manufacture tho powder?
Other manufacturers glvo away 25 or 30 cents

INTERESTING COMMENT.

The joint committee this afternoon issued
a circular touching upon tbo proposed
water works. To-morrow a circular pro
pared by a number of our prominent
citizens, will be issued. The latter circular
treats the wator question in all its phasoi
and the facts and figures given form a
foundation of somo very forciblo argu
ments. ,
A largo number of town sports wont to
"VVilkes-Barro yesterday to witness tho foot
race between Fahey, of town, nnd Loh.
man, p "Wilkes-Bdrro. Tho raco took
place at tho "West Side Driving Park and
attracted sporting men from all parts of
tho stato. Tho distance was 125 yards and
tho stakes wore $300 a side, hold by tho
Philadelphia Item. Tho sporting editor ot
that paper was tho roforce. Georgo Turner,
of Fhiladolphia, fired tho pistol. Lehman
secured a start on Fahey and led him for
somo distance, but the latter landed a
winner by about four feot. Tho event
evening was a financial disappointment to
many of the tihenandoah sports, and
although between ?3,000 and $4,000 changed
hands on the result, comparitively little of
the money came to town. About a dozen
of the men who left here yesterday
wero loaded.down with, money, but when
they reached Wilkes-Barro they could
find no takers. Ono man had ?C0O with
him and only secured $11. Another man
secured S6, but only aftor offering 10 to 0.
Several failed to win onough. to pay their
railroad.fares. The explanation for this is
that all the money Lehman's supporters
wished to risk had been takon up. before
tHe day of the race. Pittston and Ply
mouth people put In a number of early
bets on Fahey and it is said their confi
dence in tho runner nottod them about
$2,600. There Is no talk of another race,
although it is said some of the "Wilkes'
Biirro sports would bo willing to risk coin
on Lehman against Fahoy for a 100-yard
raco.
