A SAD MISTAKE.
Serious Results of Indecision
There are some vexations ex
ptnsive errorsjji omission, and errors
of commission. A gentleman hur
rying along Newcastle the other
evening, saw his wife just ahead of
him in the twilight. Instantly he ’
thought of a capital joke, and could
hardly keep from laughing outright.
But that wouldn’t have done. lie I
hurried alongside, and turning his
face awaj’, so {that she would not
recognize him at once, he hic-coughed ,
like a drunken man and staggered |
up against her. Os course there was !
a scream, but he only {staggered the j
more, crowding herjagainst the fence.,
and as the lady started to run he!
gralibed her and with a loud laugh ;
turned her toward him—
Great ! ! ! ! !
It wasn’t his wife at all, but a
strange lady!
That was an error of commission
but not the serious mistake we in
tended to refer to.
An explanation and apology made ■
that right.
Not all the begging of pardons in '
the world can make things even in
the other case. Lost opportunities
are gone. Some writer has likened
opportunity to a lovely woman with
a few locks of hair over her forehead,
and the rest of her head clean shaven. !
In the ancient game you might catch
her by the head as she came dashing !
like the wind, but when she got by, ;
you might as well grab at the bottom ;
of a copper kettle. There is a great
deal in having the quick judgement
and decision to see and take ad
vantage instantly of splendid oppor j
tumties. These qualities frequently
make all the difference between a
poor man and a millionaire, between
a sad life and a glad one. A few
dollars or even a few cents, saved j
every week or month, makes a man |
independent and happy*. A few dol
lars farther behind means shame and
distress. When a man struggles
against a rushing tide, it makes a
vast difference whether his head is a
few inches above the surface or a few
inches under. But how is a poor
man to keep even? Prices are ad
vancing; crop prospects are poor.
But prices are not advancing
yet all along the line. There are
now splendid opportunities to save
money. They should be taken ad
vantage of before it is forever too
late. A dollar may buy more now
than two dollars after a while. We
want you to call in and see for your
self what a slaughter we are making
in prices. Our stock, no one will
deny, is the largest and best in pie
city. Our goods are just what we
represent them, and the astonishing
low figures are put on to make them
go-
Wc must have room for our
splendid fall and winter stock. The
goods we offer are no shelf worn,
damaged or job lot stuff, but the very
best on the market. Still they must
go.
Notice a few samples. Here arc
the prices. Call and look at the
goods. It won’t cost you a cent.
We are offering a full line of bcauti
ful white and Striped Lawns very
hard to get, from 8 to 35 cents per
yard.
All our lovely Embroideries and
Insertings which sold like hot cakes
are marked down 3c. and up
ward.
Our American Belts, so popular,
at 25 cents, have been marked down
•to 15c. cadi.
We still have a few unequalled
bargains in our splendid line of
Van Dyke Collars ar.d Cuffs. You
want to call early or they will
will be gone.
Our stock of Umbrellas will delight I
you. They arc beauties, and of best j
qualities in sateen, gloria cloth and ,
all grades of silk. We have marked 1
them down so that everybody can
have one. and the run of them has
been so great that we have ordered ,
another immense invoice. If you
need anything in th it line it will ac
tually be an injustice to yourself not
to inspect our stock and prices.
There is money for you in all our
offers. The goods and the prices I
will speak for themselves. Our mid- .
summer sales are no myth. Call and i
see us; you will find a cordial wel
come and a regular wonder world of
bargains. Don't make a mistake.
Don’t buy inferior goods or pay
big prices, but come directly to us
before making your purchases.
Yours for ladies and gents' fur
nishing goods,

THE EVENING POST: TUESDAY, SEP!EMBER IC> 1890.
WANTED-MONEY
The Scarcity of That Indispen
sable Commodity.
Banker Burbage Has Been in New
York and is Interviewed About
the Financial Situation in
Wall Street.
President Burbage, of the First
Nations bank, who lias been in New
Y'oak and Boston doing the past ten
days, was seen by a reporter of The
Post this morning.
“The principal cause of the slur
ry in Wall street is explained up
there by the heavy exports of money
to meet the extra volume of imports
being rushed over in anticipation of
the McKinley bill.” said Mr. Burl age,
“and other causes not enumerated.’
“Will Secretary Windom’s action
lin extending the bonding period on
ire ports and advancing interest on j
bonds, besides the proposed pur- j
chases of bonds have the effect of i
relieving the strain?”
“That is the expectation The I
| demand for money is unprecedented!
| and fust now the New York banks<
are letting money out o'i call loans [
;at one half per cent, a day, or 180 1
per cent, a year. This of course is i
to their regular customers, and the,
demand from the south and west I
for money to move the crops has not I
been met, owing to the unusual ''on
ditions existing.”
From the general diift of .Mr. 1
Burbage’s remarks, it was apparent
th.it the country narrowly escaped j
a p:.nii: like that of 1873, although i
from cut:rely different causes and
! conditions.
“Did you hear anything said
I about our direct trade movement!”
“Not a word. They bud evidently I
not heard about it,."’
‘ What about that big deal of the I
Alliance with English capitalists to |
' raise a large block of money at -1 per
cent., to advance on cotton?’’
“Not a word was said about it. I
don’t think there is anything in it; I
simply a newspaper sensation.”
Pending the result of the action of!
I the secretary of tho treasury, there j
will be some active preparations made
by the local banks to tide over the
squeeze and meet the demand, which-I
at this particular season, is always'
brisk. The condition of the cotton!
market is such that the staple must
be had, unless prices go up too high. ■
The outcome is being closely
watched in all quarters.

An Interesting Case.
Yesterday evening a very inter
esting case came up before justice
Lambright. It was the case of T. J.
Josey vs. T. L. Peterson. The facts ;
were substantially as follows: <
Messrs. Barber ami Peterson went
into the general merchandise busi- j
ness some mouths ago, but after a
• time Mr. Barber grew dissatisfied
with the manner in which the busi
ness was conducted and a dissolution
was the upshot of the matter. Mr.'
Barber took charge of the books
when the dissolution went into effect
and hat since refused to let Mr. !
Peterson investigate the accounts
contained in them.
Yesterday morning, however, Mr.
Barber was called away from the
city and he placed the books with |
Mr. Josey. Mr. Paterson got the U
books into his possession in short ]
order and refused to return them
when demanded by Mr. Josey. Con
sequently a possessory warrant was
sworn out by Mr. Josey before Judge .
Lambright who decided, after hear !
ing the evidence, that the books *
should be returned to him. ’
Mr Jeff Sparks represented Josey
ami gained a brilliant victory s
for his eliant.

MOODS: A SONG.
As under the gleam of the sun the water dimples
with laughter,
As, stirred by the joyous bpeeze, the rose petals
follow ft after,
So, when old Nature sinihg, my heart is o’er filled
with her gladness,
Singing the while with the birds, thoughtless of
care or of sadness.
As, under the twilight's shade, the water is hushed
into quiet;
As, 'neath the midnight's*touch, the breezes but
whisper nigh it;
So, when the moonlight comes, my soul sung is
bushed into dreaming,
And Thought's white rose leaves float away and
are lost in her gleaming.
—Boston Transcript.
Hints to the Unfortunate.
A few suggestions, culled from ac-
I counts in the daily press of cases of
i “accidental death” during the past
! week, may prove of service to those
who are not ingenious enough to think
of them for themselves:
Mix some coarse flour and strychnine
to kill the rats with, then place the
mixture in a jar similar and as near as
possible to that containing the family
oatmeal. Prepare to shed this mortal
coil.
Place some laudanum in an empty
medicine bottle and stand it alongside a
bottle of physic on a table by your bed
side ; take a dose from the nearest bot
tle in the dark; ten chances to ono it’s
the laudanum.
Pour some carbolic acid into a beer
, bottle, cork it and put it aside in a cool
' spot; the next person who edmes along
i with “a mouth on him" will find it a
j vast improvement on common or ginger
beer.
Smear a piece of bread with phos
phorus paste (rough on rats) and leave
it in a cupboard well within reach of
marauding youngsters; if their lives are
insured you will have no reason to re
gret the experiment.—Hospital Gazette.
