the Prominent I':irt That Profuse Adver-
cana rains In Their Success.
Aside from departures in policy and
inn0vaticne en a large scale, the originul-
ity of tL:c Gepitrtmont store is largely
supplied ly two departments, to some
extent correlated. These are the adver-
tising cley 1rt11,et1t and the window
dreesfl:g dopertnle'at. One is the lima.
ture d the greet atcre, the cuter its ext.
The steep °!-.'lobous are a great stimulus
for the del elrtex•nt whose gecds-are dis-
played in their. A good showing will
ofteu wen:,erfully increase the sale of
the stock es well as attract customers to
the store wi o are new to it. Frequently
the !read advertising mall is the general
manager of the store. Whether this is.
the ease cis uot, he ie a general supervis-
or of the cF rablishment, with a complete
knowledge of its ever chaugiug detail.
Every day he holds cousultations with
Beads of departments to find out what
.pa ti _jam lines of articles they want
boo ed; teed about those articles he
wri,es alluriug statements for the shop-
,, 11 public to read, sometimes arrnng-
^.ting for illustrations with them.
' The amount of money spent for advert
tieing is appalling when looked upon as
an expense. One great store in Philadel-
phia spends on an average 11,000 every
day in the year, and a good many spend
$500 a day. The advertising receives
probably more of the personal attention
of the head -of las house than any other
departmeut. The head of the firm which
expends the great sum just mentioned
personally suggests and frequently
writes the leading lines in the clailyan-
nouncement. The proprietor of a great
store hi Brooklyn does this invariably
and thinks the time well spent which
the work daily requires. The snail de-
partment tends to enlarge this expendi-
ture, as the store reaches out to the ut-
most parts of the country, and the fu-
ture will no doubt see an even greater
development in the effort to secure mail
customers in the small towns and aur
country places.—Samuel Hopkins Ad-

Fulcetric Railroad Statistics.
Electric railways in Europe formed
the atebject of some interesting it-atistics
recently embodied in a report sent to
the United States government by. Vice
Consnl J. F. Monaghan, at Chemnitz,
Germany. According to these, the num-
ber of such railways was increased
during the year 1895 from 70 to 111,
while the total length was raised from
about 435 to 500 miles, the number of
cars from 1,286 to 1,747, and the horse-
power from a little over 18,000 to a lit-
tle over 25,000. Of all the European i
countries, Germany, according to Mr. i
Monaghan's figures, stood at the head,
with about 250 miles to her credit, and
an equipment of 857 cars and 7,194'
Horse ,uwsr. The other countries fol- I

James Monroe. Aportion of the letter
fellows:
There was a very heavy fog on the
river that morning, and the British had
formed and were moving before I knew
it, The disposition of the riflemen was
very simple. They were told off in Nos.
1 and 2. No. 1 wcs to fire fiest, thea
step back and let No. 2 shoot while he
t loaded. About 600 yards from the rifle-
men there was a great drainage canal
running back from the Mississippi river
to the swamp in the rear of the tilled
laud on which wo were operating. Along
this mina the British formed, under the
fire of the few artillery pieces 1' had
near enough to them to get their range,
But the iustant I saw them I said to
Coffee, whom I directed to hurry to his
line, which was to bo first attaoked:
"By ---, we have gr.t them! They are
ours!" Coffee dashed forward, and, rid -
jug along his line, called out, "Don't
shoot till you can see their belt buckles!"
The British were formed in mass, well
closed up, and about two companies
front.
The British, thus formed, moved on.
at a quick step, without firing n shot, to
within 100 yards of the kneeling rifle-
men, who were holding their fire till
they could sec the belt buckles of their
enemies. The British advance was exe-
cuted as though they had bceu on pa-
rade. They marched shoulder to shoul-
der, with the step of veterans, as they
wore. At 100 yards distance from our
line the order was given : "Extend col-
umn front! Double quick, march!
Charge!" With bayonets at the charge,
they came on us at a run. I own it was
an anxious moment. I well knew the
charging column was made up of the
picked troops of the British army. They
had been trained by the duke Himself,
were commanded by his brother-in-law
and had successfully held off the ablest
of Napoleon's marshals iu the Spanish
campaign. My riflemen had never seen
such all attack, nor had they ever before
fought white men. The morning, too,
was damp. Their powder might not
burn well. "God help us!" I muttered,
watching the rapidly advancing line.
Seventy, 60, 50, finally 40 yards, were
they from the silent kneeling riflemen.
All of my men that Icould see was their
long rifles rested on the logs before
them. They obeyed their orders well.
Not a shot was fired until the redcoats
were within 40 yards. I heard Coffee's
voice as he roared out: "Now, men, aim
for the center of the cross belts! Fire!"
A second after the order a crackling,
blazing flash ran all alcug our line. Tho
smoke hung so heavily in the misty
morning air that I could not see what
had happened. I calic:l Toni Overton
and Abner Duncan cf my staff, and we
galloped toward Coffee's line. In a few
seconds after the first fire there came
another sharp, ringing volley. As I
came within 150 yards of Coffee the
smoke lifted enough kr meth make out
what was happening.
The British were failing hack in a
confused, disorderly macs, and the en-
tire first ranks of their column were
blown away. For 200yardsin our front
the ground was covered with a mass a
writhing, wounded, dead and dying red-
coats, By the time the rifles were wiped
the British line was reformed, and on
It came again. This time they wero led
by General Pakenham in parson, gal-
lantly mounted and riding as though he
teas on parade. Just before he got within
range of Coffee's line I heard a single
rifle shot from a group of country carts
we had been using, about 175 yatds dis-
tant, and 0 moment thereafter I saw
Pakeuham reel and pitch out of his sad-
dle. I have always believed he fell from
the bullet of a freeman of eater who
was a famous rifle shot and. same from
the Atakappas region of Louisiana. The
second advance was precisely like the
f1rft in its ending, In five volleys the
1,500 or more riflemen stilled and
wntnded 2,117 British soldiers, two-
thirds of them Icilled dead or mortally?
wounded. I did not L005v where Gen-
eral Pukenlhuu was lying, or I should
have sent to him or gond in person to
offer any service in my power to render.
I was told ho lived two hours after
he was hit. His wound was directly
through the liver and bowels. General
Keene, 1 hear, was killed. They sent
a ;lag to me,' asking leave -to gather
up their wounded and bury their dead,
which, of course, I granted. I was told
by a wounded officer that the rank acus}.}

GRANT ROUGHS IT.
ire step* In a 11gpen Atter the Bettie of!
the Wilderness,
The general and statf bivouacked upon
the ground. The night was quite chilly,
and. a couple of fires were lighted to add
to our comfort. Gent'ral Grant lay down
with his officers beside one of the fires
without any covering. When asleep, au
aid quietly spread an overcoat (ever
him. Far about font' hours we all kept
turning aver every few minutes se as to
get warmed on both sides, imitating
with our bodies the diurnal /lotion of
the earth as it exposes its sid(•s niter-

daylight broke it was seen that a low
board structure Close to which the gen-
eral in chief had lain down was a pig-
pen, but its former occupants 11a(1 dis-
appeared and were probably at that time
nourishing the stomaehs of the cavalry
troopers of the invading army, Unfor-
tunately the odors of the place had not
taken their departure with thepigs, brit
remained to add to the discomfort of the
bivouuckers. Sheridan's cavalry had
had a fight at this place the afternoon
before, hi which he had defeated the
opposing force, and the ground in the
vicinity, strewn with the dead, offered
ample evidence of the severity of the
struggle.
At daylight on the morning of the
8111 active operations were in progress
throughout the columns. General Sheri-
dan had ordered his cavalry to move by
different roads to seize the bridges cross-
ing the Po river. General Meade modi-
fied these orders and directed a portion
of the cavalry to move in front of War-
ren's infantry on the Spottsylvauia
Court House road. The enemy were fell-
ing trees and placing other obstacles in
the way in order to impede the move-
ment, and the cavalry was afterward'
withdrawn and the infantry directed tc
open the way.
About sunrise General Grant, after
taking off his coat and shaking it to rid
it of some of the dust in which he had
lain down, shared with the staff ofrlcerl
some soldiers' rations and then seated
himself on the ground by the roadside
to take his morning smoke.—General
Horace Porter in Century.

Captain Aud(•rson, superintendent of

park. The area which it was proposed
to take fu i8 about 50 miles equate a13(1
centeiUs Jackson's lake old the Three
