The Chronological Record of a Memorable Year. AMERICA'S QUADRI-CEXTENNIAL. Politic and Pestilence, Labor DJstnrbanrrs anil Disasters Figure Prominently is Itj Annals Notable Anniversary Celebrations Death of Prominent Men. The rear ha Wen remarkable in at. least two re;pe-ts. Very few years in all the world's lister? have been marked by such a general peace, though war was threatened in many places, and yet there Lave been several stupendous political revolutions, chief nmcng them those in Great Britain and the United State. Death has been busy among the great. Tennyson and Whittier poet laureate of the British empire, and the poet of freedom havo passed to the bosorn of Divinity. Death has twice visited tLe White House. In the annals of labor and general buiress the yjar wes certainly one without precedent. There were more destructive riots in 1S77, and there have been years of greater abundance, but it Is claimed by experts that in for the 'first time in America, there was at least average prosperity contemporary with great industrial disturbances. The bloody conflicts at Homestead, Pa., and in east Tenr.?see, in Idaho and Wyoming, and the comparatively bloodies labor riots elsewhere, will certainly make the year a notable one in economic history. Though there has been no war there have been many disaster, and in the first half of the year the losses by Are, flood and windstorms in the United Suite were many. Four great tornadoes killed nearly 200 people, and four great mining disasters destroyed as many more. It 1 estimated that about 6,000 lives were lost in the United States by great accidents among them 82 by the fall of a bridge on the Licking river. 126 by fire and flood on Oil creek, Pennsylvania, an J many In minor disasters. Great accidents by flood, fire and explosion, great riots am-'iiT laborers and tremendous political revolutions these will certainly make 1SW memorable in history. DEMONS OF DESTRUCTION.

ADVERTISING DOES IT

CIGARETTE SMOKING IS KEPT ALIVE BY CLEVER SCHEMES. An Interesting and Instructive Talk with a Man Who elU the Obnoxious Artlj cleIIe Says That Only Tire Tobacco Is Used in the Manufacture. "Three-fifths of tie cigarettes told in this City," said a commercial traveler representing an eastern manufactory, a few days ago, "are from one house. Why? If you could see our advertising oil's you wouldn't t;sk. Nothing on earth is so Capricious, so lirkle as the cigarett trade, or the cigarette either, for that matter. Tlie eicaretic would lie down and die tomorrow if it were not for the small boy, and l:c is the most capricious thing that strides tho earth. Today he swears by the "Trio's Delight,' tomorrow be grows enthusiastic over tha 'Old Soldier,' and the next day loudly calls for Pearl's Pet.'" "Icsnt the name have a good deal to do with it?" "Y'es; my opinion is t hat securing a happy name is hr.lf the battle. Hut there is absolutely rio telling whether it's going to take well or v.rt. I've seen some of the most euphonious names ever heard of fall flat." "Why do cigarettes require more advertising than cigars" "For one thing, cigars of a certain price vary in quality ir.ore than cigarette. YVhen a man licd. a pood ciar be stick to it. Just notice the diiTercLce in a cigar Etore. That cigar smoker comes in and calls for Li brand, the cigarette con&umei looks through the glflss cas?, hesitates, picks out the kind that for the moment seizes bis fancy and buys. He docs the same thing every tunc Cigarette smokers, other than the small bojs, are people Inclined toward the aesthetic, there Is no denying that. As a rule the cigarette smoker is a man rather refined in his tastes. And this tas-te has to be appealed to through the eye as well as anything else. "In the whole rr.age of advertising ycu won't find any class of wares more artistically advertised than cigarettes. Some cigarett manufacturers claim that It isn't so much the advertising that sells their goods: it's simply the extraordinary quality of their goods, and say that they don't spend more than S percent, of their receipts in advertising. That is all bosb. Our firm spends from S5 to 40 percent, and count ourselves lucky. If we should quit, advertising for a single month I am convinced our receipts would fall off one-half." Five cigarette manufac tories make over 90 per cent, of all the cigarettes sold in the country. The amount of "all tobacco" cigarettes sold, compared with the paper product, is inlinitesimal. Continuing the agent said: "The evolution of cigarette advertising is quite interesting. Being head and shoulders above all competitors it is only natural that we should have inaugurated every advertising iiovelty that you see today. The first unusual thing in cigarette advertising that we did was bill posting. IiOiidou v.oke up one morning and found itself with a sort of yellow flush about it. We had pasted 10,000 big yellow posters about the central portion of the city in one night. That was the beginning. Pretty soon we were posting bills all over the globe; on the Alps, on the wall of China, and when I was in liurmah last summer I saw some there. "Then we began using photographs of large size. Afterward we used smail photographs one in each package of cigarettes. Other rnat.ufacturers immediately, began doing the same thing, and we dropjK?tl it anJ ued colored lithograph cards iustead. These we run in series of 50 and 100 cards. First were the flags of all mitions, then the world's beauties pictures of 100 famous pretty women. Then the Hags of fifty cities, then race horses, then the sporting champions of the world. Next wc issued a series of jockey colors, then the anus of nations, followed by Cfty naval flags. After this we bad the birds of America, then fifty Indian chiefs, and then a series cf game birds. "Following this we gave prizes, a ticket inserted in each package giving the buyer a chance in the drawing. Just thiukof it," be said, "2,.VX),00'),00') cigarette' were sold last year. In spite of 11 the light that has been made and is being made against the cigarette it is an actual fact that more cigarettes arecousumed every year. "Lying aside all personal interest, I am unable to understand all this antagonism to the cigarette. Instead of being made of the poorest tobacco it is made of the lest that is, the cleanest and mildest, which are the top leaves of tho tobacco plant. Ail the adulteration is a little glycerin to make the tobacco stick together while it is l-ing shaved up. I have been around a tolwcco factory a good deal, and I never saw anything elfe putiu. The idea that opium is used is absurd. "There is, however, no such thing as rice paper used. Ordinary linen paper is wet with a solution cf rice water. The trouble with the cigarette is that it is so mild that the smoker oversmokes himself before be realizes it. Then many people don't care to smoke cigarettes unless they can inhale the smoke. That's always bad. There is a law ugainst selling them to boys under sixteen years old, but I have never seen the boy yet, even if he couldn't reach up to the counter, who wasn't willing to swear he was sixteen. They soon caught on to that. Dealers invariably protest against the cigarette because the margin of profit is so much smaller than on cigars. It is almost like a druggist selling postage stamps." Ohio State Journal.. The Congo Hirer's Deep Mouth. The London Society of Telegraph Engineers and Electricians have been making soundings along the coast of Africa with a view of laying a cable from England to Cape Town. At the mouth of tho Congthey found a remarkable state of affairs, their maps and, soundings showing that that river's mouth is an extraordinary marine gully of no less depth than 1,402 feet! The mouth of the Mississippi at an equal distance from shore would only show thirty-three feet, and the Thames forty feet. The Congo's incredible depths were traced for more than 100 miles'out at sea. St. Imis Kepublic. A Soft Answer. An editor rectived a letter from an indignant subscriber, who said, "I don't want your paper any longer." To which the txlitor mildly replied: "That Js all right. I wouldn't make it any longer if you did, because in that case 1 should have to buy a new machine. The present length just suits tue, and I am glad it suits you." It is hoped this "soft answer turned away wrath." London Tit-Bits. . A Mile In Three Seconds.
