Company Inaugurates today a new
form of telegraph service called tho
Day Letter which, we believe, will
immediately commend itself to you
as affording decided economic and
profitable advantages to the busi
ness community. The Day Letter Is
designed to be tho day companion
to the Night Letter which doubtless
you have already used on many oc
casions. The rate charged for a Day Letter
of fifty words or less Is one and one
fcalf times tho Night Letter rate,
and for each additional ten words or
less one-fifth the Initial charge. For
example: tho New York-Chicago
Night Letter rate is 50 cents; the
Day Letter rate is one and one-half
times that or 75 cents, with 15
eents for each additional ten words.
Tho New York-San Francisco Night
Letter rate is J1.00; the Day Letter
rate $1.50, with 30 cents for each
additional ten words.
Day Letters should bo written in
plain English; code language and
code words not accepted. They
may be filed at any time and are to
be transmitted as tho facilities of
tho Company may permit during
business hours, full rate telegrams
having priority of transmission.
As the wires of the company are
in much demand during the mid
day hours It Is advisable that Day
Letters be filed as early In the day
os possible. Day Letters will be
accepted at all ofTlces of tho West
ern Union for transmission to any
of its offices in the United States.
The Day Letter and Night Letter
give to tho United States the
cheapest telegraph service In the
world, and enable the business man
to conduct his correspondence by
wire with all tho advantages that
result from saving or time, elimina
tion of distance and the Immediate
attention Invariably accorded to tel
egrams. Mrs. Charles Gray, Main street, Is

In the meeting at Harrlsburg last

every piece of mall passing through
the office, and classify the same,
weighing and making a record of
the weight of each class of mall.

visit Farview and select a site have
been made. It Is said that at pres
ent thero are several hundred prison

"When I love tnee not, chaos Is
como again." Dr. Charles Roads,
pastor of Cumberland Street Metho
dist Episcopal church, Philadelphia,'
says that chaos has come again as
far as Protestanlsm Is concerned
especially tho Methodist section of It.
He wails, like a modern Jeremlas:
Our Church has showed a gain of
less than one per cent. In a year.
There is an average of one convert to
each church and pastor.
Only one-third of the children of
the land are In the Sunday schools.
One-third of them are converted. Of
those converted, only one-third are
trained to accomplish anything for
the Church.
The poor, distraught mourner Is so
engrossed with his tribulations that
ho cannot see that he uses language
that Indicates the causo while ho
rails against the effect:
The Individual liberty which Luth
er and the old reformers won for
mankind has finally thrown Protes
tantism Into chaos. Individual liber
ty has degenerated to such an extent
that prenchers and people are con
cerned chiefly with the Individual In
terpretation of the Scripture rather
than the upbuilding of tho Church.
Tho local Church to-day Is a mob,
and not an army. Like a mob, they
know how to break each other's
heads. There is no great Christian
army fighting for Christ, because
there Is no army spirit.
Chaos has come again for his
Church, and logically Dr. Roads
ought to get away from her, for evi
dently ho loves her no longer.

A novel way to demonstrate the

that the other end will extend Into
either the Atlantic Ocean or the gulf
of Mexico.

End Of Tho Short-Sighted Boss.
Richard Croker, Interviewed at
Palm Beach by tho Now York World,
says Murphy should withdraw his
support from Sheohan and allow tho
Democratic Legislature to elect a
United States Senator. Coming from
the source It doe3 this opinion ought
to havo some weight with Murphy,
but it probably will havo none, for
yesterday's papers printed an Inter
view with Murphy denouncing Ed
ward M. Shepard and tho others who
have sought to defeat Sheohan. This
Senatorial struggle has shown how
little there Is In Murphy. Thero
havo been bosses who had a good
many of the traits and characteris
tics, and much of the strength, of
leadership. These were dangerous,
for when they aro forceful and re
sourceful enough to bo leaders, arid
are willing to use their strength to
make themselves mere bosses, the
danger is that they will maintain
their hold for a long time. When
a man Is simply a boss, who has
come Into power by chance or
through the process of elimination,
then It is only necessary for him to
betray his weakness through one
failure and his power will leave him
forever. Mumhv imn niinwn liimenif
to bo simply a bull-headed and rhin-
ucuros-niueo uoss. lie has none of
the qualities of real leadership. If
he had, he would recognize the fact
that to force Sheehan either to vic
tory or defeat will be fatal to his
success in the future. To elect Shee-
nan will mean the driving away of
thousands of votes from tho Dem
ocratic ticket next year and possibly
the defeat of the party throughout
tho country. The defeat of Shee
han, in spite of Murphy's continued
and insistent support, will mean the
breaking of Murphy's power in New
York city, for the men whom he
dominates there are not the kind to
be bossed by the man who falls in
'his undertakings. The only way,
therefore, in which Murphy could
save his face and his influence would
be to withdraw his support from
Sheehan and assist in electing a
Senator who would be acceptable to
the people generally. This, It Is ap
parent, he will not do. ' Like the
traditional beggar on horseback, he
Insists on riding to ruin.
The last year witnessed the over
throw of a number of bosses; the
present and the next will be marked
by the passing of many more.

BAD DREATCS
Nightmare, I5estle.ssnc.ss and Night
sweats All CmiM'd By Indiges
tion. Half of the nervousness In tho
world, all of the disturbing dreams
and nightmares can be ended in a
few weeks by a simple, inexpensive
treatment guaranteed by G. W. Pell.
Upset stomach Is the cause of
nervousness and bad dreams. Your
food is lying In your stomach un
digested and fermenting; it is form
ing poisonous gases which irritates
the pheumogastric nervo that leads
direct from the brain, and ends In a
network of tiny branches running
through the stomach.
It is also the Irritation or this
great pheumogastric nervo that
causes headaches. Many times peo
ple havo sovere headaches and know
they nre caused by the stomach, but
do not know how.
