FREELAND, PA., APRIL 18, 1898.
Information on Advertising.
Robert C. Ogden, of the linn of John
Wanamaker. made an address the other
day in New York city, at tlie Merchants'
Association headquarters, to a larg
number of business men ou "Advertising
as a Business Force," and as Mr. Ogden
speaks from experience, and presents
the matter so aptly and tersely, we give
a brief synopsis.
In opening his address Mr. Ogden said
that he intended to talk on advertising
from the retailer's point of view. "We
all know," he said, "that advertising is
a business force, and it is concerning the
methods of advertising that I shall
speak mainly. Business can be divided
into three parts, merchandise, service
and advertising. Advertising is the dyna
mic power of the business, and cannot
be followed with any degree of success.
After the merchandise has been gather
ed and the store service made as perfect
as possible the steam that must move
the engine is advertising.
"The columns of the newspaper is the
merchant's rostrum. It is his stump
From it he speaks to his audience, h
is the channel through which the incr
chant reaches the people. And news
paper advertising is a test of a mer
chant's character. It must be thorough
advertising, for the people will sureh
judge the advertiser througli it. Also,
if advertising is to pay it must not he
stupid. It must be good literature. It
is a fact that advertising occupies an
important place in the literature of the
land. Intelligent readers look at it as
characteristic literature of the time.
"Gladstone says that the American
newspapers interest him because the ad
vertising in them is good reading, be
cause of the splendid accompanying
illustrations and because the advertising
is his means of gauging the material
prosperity of the country.
"There is great waste of money in
advertising. A great deal of advertis
ing fails because the advertiser gets dis
couraged. Advertising to be successful
should be continuous. 'J'he advertiser
must have courage. Most men are
afraid to go beyond a certain poiir.
Having placed 930,000, they should not
fail to put on the extra J?.".OOO, or they
may lose the beneiit of s'-0,000. if a
man has not the money to advertise he
might as well go out of business."
In closing Mr. Ogden said that adver
tising should bo characteristic, so that
the public would know it the minute
they saw it, without having to look for
the name attached. lie said it was a
mistake to think that any one could
write such advertisements, as it is f, r
beyond the capabilities of an ordinary
man. He closed by saying that the
motto of the successful business man is.
"Early to bed, early to ri>o. don't g< t
tight, and advertise.'
Silence* lb a Coafesdoo.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The cable dispatch from Loudon
which say that Joseph Punell Gibbons
ridicules the Spanish denials of the sale
by him of the submarine mines to Spain
and positively asserts his belief that the
explosion can he traced to the act of a
few individuals sustains General Kitz
hugh Lee's testimony to the ell'cct that
the mine was blown up by some of
Weyler's oflicers. At the same time, it
opens up a view of tin; question that lias
not been touched upon.
Any government that was a govern
ment could unearth the perpetrators of
that barbarous act in a few days. Spain
could do it if she desired. She has not
done so because she knows that the
arrests of the guilty persons would
bring the crime home to Spanish officials
of one kind or another and show the
unworthiness of Spanish government.
Spain's silence is a confession, and it
looks a if she would have to take her
her punishment.
While the Philadelphia city cotiuc.il is
under investigation on charges of whole
sale bribery of members. Mayor Harri
son. of Chicago, declare* that the t'hirn
go council Is "steeped in crime and cor
ruption," and that "not a week passes
but there are crimes committed by alder
men of the city of Chicago which are
calculated to make hardened men shud
der." It is worth noting that in both
these cases the corruption arises mainly
in connection with the disposition of pul
lie franchises among private corporation.*

(lt*nt Cleveland Reside*.
Glover Cleveland is a mascot for real
estate boomers. He has made money
in large sums for landholders in three
widely separated parts of the country.
When he was married, ten years ago.
during his first term, Mr. Cleveland
bought for $21,500 a place of twenty
eight acres in the suburbs of Washing
ton. Until that purchase the sight
liness of the locality had not been
recognized. The land was In small
small farms and there were few Wash
ington people who had homes along
the unfashionable pike. The President
made some alterations in the com
fortable old stone house and lived
there In the summer time. When he
went out of office, after two or three
seasons' occupancy of "Red Top." as
the place was called, from the brightly
painted roof, he sold his twenty-eight
acres for $135,000. But previously
thousands of acres surrounding had
changed hands. Cleveland Heights
had been laid oat. an electric road had
been built and all of the accessories of
teal estate speculation on a grand
scale had been applied.
Mr. Cleveland's next venture was in
a desolate tract of land on Buzzard's
Bay. He went there oil the recom
mendation of Joseph Jefferson, found
good fishing and bought liberally of
the rocky and sandy acres. The his
tory of Red Top repeated Itself, save
that Mr. Cleveland did not sell when
the boom came. Buzzard's Bay has
come into prominence as one of the
choicest localities on the Atlantic coast
for summer homes. The land has gone
Up and up until the advances parallel
those of the first neighborhood to
which Mr. Cleveland lent his name.
And now the news is that Princeton
acres, and especially that part in
which the ex-President has invested,
are soaring in values.
• They Hot JLNEU.
"The most amusing nuptial event I
ever officiated at," said good old
'Squire Hiram Cate. of Kentucky, the
marrying magistrate of the Penny
rile.' who died not long since, "was
in the winter of '7l. I was awakened
one cold night about midnight by vig
orous knocking on my front door. I
went to the window, and by the light
of the moon could see two forms on
my front porch. I raised the window
and asked what was wanted. A wom
an of the backwoods type, answered
in about this language: 'Why, hits
us, Jim an' me, as wants to git hitch
ed.' 1 hurried down, and on opening
the door found a poorly clad, flnnlcky
looking man of about forty, led by a
determined looking woman of perhaps
thirty. I could see that the female
was the business part of the proces
sion, and addressed myself to her,
asking why they had chosen such a
late hour for their hitching affair.'
This was the reply in quick, snappy
sentences: 'Why, hits this way. Jim
Owens is bin a-sparkin' uv me, I
low, for fo' yeres, an' 1 got fetched
tired uv his mincin* wurds. so tuk sin'
ast him to-nite, I did. ef he wuz ever
gwine ter pop. I tol' him. 1 did, I
spected him 'votedly, and ef he wanted
me, to cum on an' less git jined tonite,
er I wuz gwine to take Fletch Bog
gesses' boy, Hez, an' settle down. Jim
lowed—he did —he reekined he'd cum,
tho' it wuz a long trip. So I took an'
fetched him in pap's mill waggin'.
Didn't I, Jim? Jim nodded a doleful
assent. In answering the questions I
put to the groom in the ceremony the
brawny better nine-tenths gave the
bashful spouse about to he the cue, and
she paid me a half dollar, taking the
money from Jim's pocket book. it
beat any wedding I ever witnessed, I
think."
Unbinding: Uiina Women** Feet.
Are any Chinese women's feet un
bound in consequence of the exertions
of foreigners? Yes; but no more than
European ladies are they going to walk
barefoot through the streets to con
vince doubters. And what is far more
important, numbers upon numbers of
little girls are remaining unbound in
missionary schools at Araoy. Hang
chow and all up and down the river.
And at parties ladies who so far as
we know are untouched by Christian
influences yet show with pride their
soft-footed little girls, saying, "My old
people bound my feet, but I will never
bind hers." It is the upper circles of
China who are giving up binding. The
man on the streets yet binds and loves
bound feet, just as in Singapore all the
Straits-born Chinese have cast off
binding, if it be not the very poorest
of the poor.
Pay for Every lmml y.
An aged Georgia negro. Nathan by
name, is employed by a gentleman
prominent In State politics. That
Nathan also has an eye to political
favors is shown by the following con
versation which recently took place
between him and his employer:
Marse Jim." said Nathan, "is you
gwine in dis yere race for Governor?"
"Haven't thought about it."
"Well, ef yer does run, an' gits elect*
ed, will you give me a job?"
"Certainly I would remember you,
Nathan. What would you like?"
"Well, suh,' I'd des like ter black

"And what would you expect for that

"Well, suh," he replied. "I should

DYNAMITE JOHNNY.
REMARKABLE CAREER OF CAPTAIN
O'BRIEN, THE FILIBUSTER.
He Ha* Attained More Notoriety in the 1
I.at Decudn llian Any Other American !
■ Pilot —He HUM Conveyed Lot* of Supplies
io the Cuban Insurgent*.
; That truth is stranger than fiction I
j has another illustration in the re- !
markable career of Captain John
I O'Brien, known among his old friends
as "Dynamite Johnny." He was the
skipper of the filibustering steamer
' Tillie, which was lost recently off Bar
negat. In all his forty years of adven
ture it was his first serious setback.
There are few who have not rend of
the fate of the thirty-six-year-old
piece of patchwork styled the steamer
I Tillie. whose filibustering career ended
at the bottom of the ocoan off Barne
gat. Probably no one. htfwever intl
-1 mate, knows thoroughly the career of
i "Dynamite Johnny" O'Brien, whom
I report says perfected all details and
never faltered when others hesitated
i and talked of the perils it was im
possible to avoid. No man born ever
had a more ardent love of adventure.
Adventure is his god. No tale of sen
sational romance can excel his life
story. It will never reach the world
in completeness, O'Brien does not
talk.
He has attained more notoriety in
the last decade than any other Ameri
can pilot. He is a professional maker
of international trouble. There has
CAPTAIN JOHN O*BRIF.If.
not been strife of any magnitude since
| he grew a beard in which ho has not
! had a hand. He appears, reappears
! and pops up in unexpected places. He
has been shot at with arms of every
; size, has been condemned to death, has
had a price set upon his head on nu
merous occasions, and to-day, at sixty
i years, is without a shattered bone or j
nerve, and more eager than ever to |
' undergo any risk which promises good
i flnuncial remuneration. "Captain John
! ny's" friends say he fears neither man
; nor the devil.
' In appearance he is short and mus- 1
cular with bronzed and somewhat !
j wrinkled fare and sharp blue eyes. His !
hair is thick and healthy, but the col- i
or of chalk. It was black a few years j
ago when he vanished from Staten Is- i
land, 'where he had rented a cottage.
He returned in a few months with |
skin a trifle paler and hair as white I
as snow. No one knows the horror of •
suffering which caused the transfor
mation.
He gained the sobripuet of "Dyna
, mite Johnny" when he navigated the
• old schooner yacht Rambler, laden to \
i her deck beams with the explosive, to I
Laguayra, oft' the Venezulan coast. i
This is the only voyage he was ever '
known to talk about.
It was hardly a month after the
present Cuban revolution began before
Captain O'Brien was heard from. No
I one expected him to restrain himself. I
j How many expeditions the strange, j
j white haired man has guided to a
; snug haven on the island's coast is a
matter of conjecture. He is seldom at
'home nowadays. He is loved by all
rebel sympathizers. Those foremost
in the councils of the revolutionists
deny all knowledge of the adventurer.
The most exciting episode in which
he has figured during the insurrection,
i so far as known, was during the win
i ter of 18911, when he attempted to pilot
the Three Friends to the Cuban shore, j
He did not take command of the boat i
until the coast of Florida had become j
a blur. Then the silent man whom !
the mixed crew had regarded as an i
unwelcome intruder doffed his sty- i
lish derby hat, slipped on a dark blue i
seaman's cap and assumed entire j
charge of the pilot house. His know'l- I
edge of southern waters is thorough, !
but he was unable to quickly avoid a i
Spanish cruiser which bore down upon
the little filibuster. Then began a ;
| chase which finally ended in Spanish
I humiliation, but not before it had j
I seemed certain that the Three Friends i
1 would be blown out of existence by j
: shot and shell.
The untrained crew of the steamer ;
were panic stricken. There was hard
ly an American among them. Prayer
and exhortation rose to heaven.
O'Brien was the only thoroughly un
alarmed man in I lie little band. Hour
after hour he held the vessel to the
course, calmly estimating the corapar- j
atlve speed of pursued and pursuer, !
and never uttering a word that was
not a wisely planned command. The j
weather was boisterous, and O'Brien
was wet to the skin, but never for a j
moment did his tired muscles relax '
their grip on the great spoked wheel.
Governments have tried in vain to i
catch or kill the stout hearted raarin- i
er. Probably no man is mom cor
dially hated or more closely watched
than he. How mu n h money his life
of adventure has brought to him is a
secret that has never been divulged.
He has a competency, without a doubt,
but neither that nor the entreaties of ,
his family will deler him from con
tinuing in his caretr of mystery and 1
peril,
SHE MADE IT DEFINITE.
Wutnnn'M Note V'nn llu*lncnN-l.llte,
nut it n;<tu*t suit,
Watson was sitting at his desk one
evening when his wife said:
"My dear, will you send a note to
Syik & Sattin and tell them that I musl
have the five yards of lining that J
bought there yesterday. They said
they'd send it right away, and I must
have it to-morrow, for the dressmakei
will be here the next day."
So Watson wrote as follows:
"Messrs. Syik & Sattin: Will you
please send at once the five yards ol
lining my wife purchased at your store
yesterday?"
"Let me see what you have written?'
said Mrs. Watson.
"Oh, dear!" she said, after reading
it, "that isn't half posiive and definite
enough. They'll pay no attention tc
that. I'll sit down and write to their
myself."
And this was what she wrote:
"Messrs. Syik & Sattin: You wiil re
member that I was in your store at
about 10 o'clock yesterday morning (ot
it may have been as late as 10:30), and
I purchased five yards of perealine fot
dress-lining. One of the salesladies at
the lining counter will remember about
it. The one I bought, it of was tal'
and slender, with dark eyes, and I
remember that she had on a red silk
waist trimmed with black velvet and
a red and green plaid skirt. She will
remember that i purchased the lining
of her and she promised me that it
would be sent sure to-day. It has not
come and it would not make any par
ticular difference, only that my dress
maker is coming day after to-morrow
and she will need the lining the first
thing, and cannot go to work without
it, and her engagements are such that
she cannot come to me any day but
day after to-morrow and the next day
so if the lining should not come it
would put her ha- k so that she could
not finish the dress, and I cannot get
her again for nearly a month, and 1
simply must have the dress by the last
of next week, and I am too busy to
come downtown to-morrow and get
the lining. The saleslady I spoke ol
with the red silk waist waist will be
sure to remember about it, and I told
her just why and when I wanted it and
she promised me that it would be sure
to come. Of course it may come be
fore you get this, and if so it will be
all right, but I simply must have it be
fore the dressmaker gets here, for she
will want to go to work on the skirt
the first thir.g and she cannot if she
does not have the lining. Please send
it right away.
"P. S.—Five yards of perealine skirt
lining at 38 cents a yard, bought of
saleslady In red silk waist and plaid
skirt, to be sent sure yesterday, and
lias not come. Must have it to-mor
row."
"There," said Mrs. Watson, as she
folded the letter. "That will make it
all clear to them."

"Cyrus," asked his wife, "what are
you moping about?"
"it is thirty-seven years ago to-day,
Keturah," replied the gloomy man,
who had thrown himself on the lounge,
"since 1 became cashier of yie bank."
"Well, what of that? Are you worn
out? Is the salary too small? Have
you ever had the slightest trouble with
the bank? Is there anything wrong
with your accounts? Are they think
ing of replacing you with a younger
man?"
"No, there's nothing wrong in any
way," replied the bank cashier, "but
the very fact that I have been the
bank's most trusted official for thirty
seven years, that I have never done
a dishonest thing in my life: never
mude an Injudicious loan: that my ac
counts are perfectly straight, and that
no man on earth can say a word
against me is making people suspi
cious, and they are beginning to talk

Following is the .startling story of th€
man who made the mine which blew tip the
battleship Maine:
The only submarine mines which ;
have been supplied to the Spanish Gov- 1
ernment since 1886-87 were manufac
tured under my own patents.
I then supplied them with fifty-six
ground mines, twenty-five buoyant
mines, each with a charge of 50C
pounds of guncotton, and fifteen elec
tro-contact mines, exploded either on
contact or by observation from shore,
each containing a charge of 100 pounds
of guncotton.
The mines sent to Havana would
still retain full effectiveness. They
will last under water for an indefinite
period.
i In 1806-97 the Spanish Government
ordered a fresh supply of my patent
mines. Whether they went to Ha
vana or not is immaterial.
One of the mines supplied in 1886 is
still fully capable of causing the de
struction of the Maine.
JOSKl'll PAXKt.I. GIBIIIVS.
In fact, I am convinced, from all the
surrounding circumstances, that no
other agency could have caused it.
In direct contradiction of the asser
tions of the Secretary of the Spanish
Legation at Washington and of Gen.
Weyler that there are no submarine
in i nes in Ha vara Harbor, absolutely
affirm that 1 shipped the above mines
for Havana ami Ferrol on a Spanish
ship, the property of the Spanish Gov
ernment, and officered by Spanish nav
al officers, with two captains, at the
West India dock, London.
My mines are in electrical connec
tion with the shore, and it is quite im
possible that they could be exploded
except by design.
1 am convinced also that the explo
; slon of the mine which destroyed the
| Maine was the work of one or two
men, for these reasons:
First A vessel swinging, either an
chored or moored, upon striking the
circuit closer case would merely drop
I a shutter on the keyboard on shore,
warning the officer in charge that she
| was in contact with the mine.
Second —Before tlie officer is in a
p; Mi'ion to fire the mine he must oh
| tain one of two keys. One generally
, is kept by the commandant, the other
by the officer in charge of the firing
, station. He then must unlock the
j glass door over which the shutteY has
fallen and insert a red danger plug in
I the insulated switch.
Third —He must insert a plug in the
switch of the firing battery earth plate.
Fourth—The firing key is arranged
with n locking armature of ebonite,
which must be unlocked before the
danger point is arrived at.
Fifth—The firing key hammer must
be pressed on to the contact anvil to
complete the circuit that explodes the
detonator, by which the mine in turn
is exploded.
1 have not the slightest hesitation in
j saying that the Maine was deliberately
destroyed with a 500-pound ground
mine as invented and supplied by me. ,
There is a consensus of opinion that
the first explosion was external. This
is established on the following
grounds.
The forward magazine contained 2.-
500 pounds of gunpowder, which might
blow up the decks, but it is problemat
ical whether it would le capable of
igniting the 5,500 pounds of powder
in the middle magazine. Even if it did
the explosion of both would be quite
incapable of detonating the 8,200
pounds of wet guncotton in the after
magazine. Had that quantity of gun
cotton hern detonated not a vestige of
' the Maine would remain.
The only practical way of diseover
: ing the mine that sunk the Maine is
by underrunnii'g the cable from the
shore to the junction box and from
thence undenmining each individual
cable to the mine, until one was found
without a mine attached.
I am satisfied that the explosion
' was caused by a ground mine not by
\ a buoyant mine for Havana harbor is
to shallow to admit of the use of the
I latter.
I am prepared to satisfy by demon
• i'n any jury of reasonable men
I that this is the true explanation of the
I Maine.
