It is a noticeable fact that many good items are lost to newspapers every week by the modesty of the people who hesitate to tell the reporter matters concerning* themselves. Don’t think it too forward to give itetfks concerning yourself. The right thing to do is to stop a newpaper man on the street or any other place you happen to meet him and tell him that you have been on a visit, have relatives visiting yeti, that your wife entertained company or in fact anything that is in any way a matter of news. If you have done anything mean, of course keep it to yourself, for there are always otheip to tell that.—Remington Press,

We clip the following from the New York Sun concerning the robbery of the Brill Bros, store. Max Brill was a few years ago a clerk in Ralph Fendig's store here and is therefore well known to many of our readers: “Fpr the second time in six months Brill Bros., dealers in men’s furnishing goods at 211 Sixth avenue, have been the victims of an adroitly executed robbery. Thieves broke into the store sowe time between 1 o’clock on Tuesday afternoon and 8 o’clock yesterday morning by way of the transom over the front door. The fact that the corner of Fourteenth street, near which the store is, is brilliantly lighted did not in the least deter the robbers. They stole about #3OO worth of canes and umbrellas, gold lockets and watch charms, and several gross of silk handkerchiefs. The robbery was discovered at 8 o’clock yesterday morning by Max Brill. The other robbery of Brill Bros, store was on May 26. when burglars bored through the waljp of the fourth story of the ad-' joining house. They broke; open the safe and got S9OO in cash and #SO in stamps. It was thought that “Sheeney Mike” and his gang were the thieves, but after their arrest they were discharged for lack of evidence.

The public installation of the officers of the Masonic and Eastern Star Lodges at their lodge room last Thursday evening, was one of the most pleas ant affairs of the holiday season.
