According to a diipatob of Jauoary
26 .froia Albany, a fanatical sect of
that place aeeins to be rivalling tbe
famoua Holy Hollers of CorvallU.
The report says:

and the chatter of a bird, and meu
and women moaning aud weeping in
fanatical frenzy, were tUe scenes last
night in the Mmuouite Mirfliou in
this city. Ablaiiv was reaeiving its
firHt geuuiue appearance of the "Tan
gled Tongues."
A few weeks ago the meetings
reached the "Tongues of Kire" stage,
but then ouly one man, a young man
named Williams, who came here from
the Salem iiiiHxion. talked In tbe un-
known tongues. The meetings were
I hen noisy, hilurlous affaire aud
quieted down In response to popular
feeling and a shower of fresh eggs on
New Year's eve. Williams aud a
Mrs. Reese, who also came here from
Salem, then left for fortlaud and the
meetings recently have been more
quiet.
Young Williams returned here two
days ago aud last night he meeting
waa the uiot fanatical exhibition ever
seen in this city. Frenzy was worked
up early in the evening and for hours
the worshippers rolled, moaned, wept,
sang aud chattered in the strange
jargon. A young girl lay on the
floor bysterioal for a long time, her
body qoiveriug aud trembling, while
others lay stretched out on benches
almost in the same conditiou.
The door of the uiissiou was locked
at 10 o'clock, iu response . to a former
order of the police that the meetings
mast close at that hour, but it was
then that the worst part of the meet
ing began. No outsiders were ad
mitted, but were permitted to watch
the railing through the windows and
tbe chattering tougues oould be heard
pluiuly from the outside.

i When the agent reported such matters

then this .pair
would write
that some mistake
must lurely be made, but as payment
I of $10 had been
made ou this watch
they would give ktne ageui a cou.iu.s-
sion of $3 to secure the other $15.
i Wkll, the watch scheme worked flue
and the pair cleared op $10,000 clear.
Then tbey bought a lot of parlor sets
for children aud advertised them,
giving the impression that yoo would
receive a full set of furniture for $5;
aud the people bit all over the
country. Uncle Sam has stopped
Seirn, Roebuck & Compauy's mail U
times for fake deals like this bnt has
never been able to catch them. Sears
is probably worth nine or teu mill
ions. Roebuck is working in Des
Moines, Iowa, for $18 per week, being
forced out of business several years
ago. As an illustration of how this
firm makes money. About a year ago
they bought 3000 bicycles all alike,
and they placed three prices ou the
same wheel, which cost them $r.o0
aud they sold it for $12.75, lift. 25,
and $10.&0. The same wheel, mind
you, possibly a different color of
paiut; but the ouly difference was
that some people wanted a $12. 75
wheel aud others a $16.00, aud they all
got what they wanted. They work
the same graft on clothing. Iu cata
logues they advertise clay worsteds at
$12.50, $15 aud $is. No matter what
yoo pay, you set the suit. The name
Sears, Roebuck & Company is their
trade mark and as Roebuck has been
baukropt for several years he is uot
counected with the firm. Montgomery
Ward is practically dead and has been
for several years. et these people
have been so successful iu s ealing
from the publio such large sums that
it is wonder Uncle bam allows them
to exist. Their advertisements are
j deceptive. They do not fill orders as
1 the customer thinks they ate filled,
yet they are sniuoth enough to keep
' within the bounds of the law some
. wy. Eveu your country merchaut
who pays a larger wholeslae price for
his goods than they do, could get rich
selling a better grade of goods to the
people that patronize thse two big
' places. I worked for Sears, Roebuck
& Company for two years aud I know

Do$ W$ Cook Good to Von?
It certainly looks good to us aud yoo will note that additional
stamps are needed to mill the ore already in sight and that is the
reason stockk is being sold at the prospeot price of 25 cents per share.
Oiill You Bny Some of tbe Stock?
The stock is easily worth double the price askpd for It, but th
quick money is worth more to the compauy than the stock that will
have to be told to build and equip the mill. Tbe stock is selling at
the prion of many ordinary prospects, bat as a matter of faotit is a
REAL MINE. If you failed to realize the iniportane of the above re
port, read it over again and see if you do not wish to join as a part
ure, in a proposition that you, yourself must acknowledge ia meritor
ious in every tespert
Get Some Alexandria now.
After the present allotment Is sold, the stock will be entirely
withdrawn from sale, and will unrloubtely be worth from two to four
times what it is now selling for. Stock in a dividend paying mine at
25 cents per share is certainly a bargain, and that is what Mr. Gill
ingham says it is, as soon as the mill is in operation. The ore being
in sight, all that is necessary is the equipment to handle it. The
allotment will be sold promptly and in offering it to yon, it ii un
necessary to state that we advise its purchase. Don't be too slow in
getting your orders in. As soon as yon read this, write or wire the
number of shares yoo want. Our customers are our best friends, be
cause we make them money.
