FROM A BUSINESS STAND POINT
It is not unwise, in the brightest days
of prosperity, to take under thoughtful
consideration the probabilities of the
future. It has lieen demonstrated by
statistics that only about 9« r > per cent, of
those who engage in the mercantile busi
ness fail to realize fortunes, while the
remaining 5 per cent, accumulate wealth
and curry on the business of the world’s
commerce. This small per cent, of suc
cess, and large per cent, of practical fail
ure, presents a fruitful theme for much
and careful thought, like everything else
associated with the affairs of life or
linked with the history of man, there is
a reason for it, not traceable directly to
the law of cause and effect, nor solved in
the problems of supply and demand, but
inherent in the make-up of every man
are found the elements of success, or the
characteristics of failure, and these are
cultivated until they accomplish for the
individual that destiny on the roll of
fame assigned them by the capricious
hand of fortune’s blind goddess. From
this standpoint, it is safe to claim for
Way cross a larger per cent, of successful
business men than any city, of equal
population in the world, can boast of.
But success in Way cross has not been
attained without some effort, but resulted
in the main from a stiict observance of
business principles, honest effort and
persistant application. No wild-cat
schemes have been indulged in and no
Gordie boom courted, business has been
business pure and simple, the city’s
growth steady and healthful, without a
collapse, with no panic financial or other
wise to threaten, and no castle in the air
to topple and fall. With n conservative
city government, supported by conserva
tive business men, Waycross will con
tinue to build up and prosper.
Mr. Cleveland will select his cabinet,
but the legislatures of the several states
look after the election of one to repre
sent them in the senate. That’s fair,

The bridge across “Little Hurricane

the contractor, J. A. Murray, be paid

Mr. W. A. Manghani, while staud-

dence on Monday morning of last week,
the 2d instant, in social conversation
with a friend,suddenly dropped dead.
For a week or more 31 r. Manghani
had been complaining of a heart trouble,
though nothing serious was expected.
Ho remarked a short time before his
death that ho was feeling unusually
well. His friends hoped for the best,
scare,” said a <vell known lawyer to u j
reporter owe afternoon. “It happened in 1
this way: I was breakfasting alone in
East Twenty-eight street at a private
Italian lioanling house filled with the
leading people from several comic opera
companies, including ‘Robin Hood’ and
‘Puritania.’ My landlady, Mme. S..
whose English pronunciation is at once
the delight and despair of those who
seek to imitate or understand it, came in
and said: *Mista John, writa me una
note. Say Alda worn* are down. Com

Sophie.’
•T was in haste to get down ’town,”
continued the narrator, “and I wrote it
out as I understood it, ‘All the women
are down; come qnick.’ I thought
that the message sounded odd. She
said, however, that it was ‘alia rat,*
and sent it to Dr. X. around the corner
in Lexington avenue. That worthy
yonng physician glanced at the note, and
thinking that it opened the way to fame
for him informed the lxwrd of health
that he had discovered an ontbreak of
cholera in an np town Italian boarding
house. He telephoned the same mes
sage to several newspaper men of liis
acquaintance.
“In less than twenty minutes a squad
of burly policemen appeared in front of
the house, followed by the doctor, six
Soincthing had to be done to c
the evil of having old time tables in
the coatroom anti porters* closets of the
hotels which gave nothing but misin
formation to the traveler, if indeed he
could find any time table at all. and so
the general passenger agent of one of the
trunk lino roads hit upon the schemo of
forming a time table supply company.
This was done about a year ago and has
now assumed large proportions.
The profits in the business are consid
erable and come from the railroad com
panies. Some seventy or eighty of the
prominent roads of the country are sub
scribers. They supply their folders and
time slips to the company and subscribe
liberally for the work of having them
distributed among the large hotels and
other resorts of New York and Brooklyn.
The company furnishes each hotel with
a neat rack, either stationary or revolv
ing. and supports a delivery wagon and
an agent, whose duty it is to make the
rounds weekly, putting new time tables
in place and replenishing tho depleted
supply.
As a consequence it is a far easier and
more certain matter to obtain accurate
information in New York regarding the
movements of western and southern
trains tlian it ever was before, and every

No one can imagine our excitement
and nervousness when the evening caihe
on which we were to dance with oir
pupils. Katie was to have 3Ir. Leecji,
who was over six feet tall, for her partner,
while my father was to be mine. My
heart beat, so fast that I could scarcely
breathe. I was so fearful for the success
of our exhibition. But my fears were
groundless, and we were greeted at the
finish of our dance with hearty applause,
which was more than compensation for
special defect of our time that tho old do
not enter heartily into the life of the
young. Comparing the present genera
tion with generations past, we should say
that one of the most distinctive notes of
the present day is the sympathy of the
old for the young—a sympathy which the
young generally and rather heartily ap
preciate. but which they do not very
often reciprocate. Instead of conversing
so as to turr “the back of tho conversa
tion” toward the old, they usually expect
and confidently expect that a good deal
of its life and interest will be contributed
by the old and are rather scandalized if
the expectation be disappointed.
In fact they habitually expect the old
to be juvenile in their interests, and they
are very much seldomer disappointed
than the yonng people of forty or fifty
years ago, if they had formed the same
expectations (which they certainly did
not often do), wonld have been. Just as
the riel* are now habitually expected (and
very often justify the expectation) to find
their deepest interest in alleviating the
condition of the poor, so the old are now
habitually expected to find their deepest
interest in rendering the pursuits ami
pleasures of the young still more attract

Advantages of Seasiekness.
Nothing can be much more depressing
than seasickness, and for this reason we
should strongly advise all weak persons
not to encounter if possible the risk of
its occurrence. It is astonishing how
soon and how completely those who are
favored with a fair measure of constitu
tional elasticity recover from its depres
sion. In their case the benefits of a sea
trip may thus, with compensations of
air. diet and appetite; be enhanced by a
few hours of mechanical nausea. It is
in truth for such persons only that tours
