What is
SALEM?
HAS THE BOHOM DROPPED OUT ?
Ono would think to read the advertisements of some of the merchants
that this Is a very poor place to do business in. They are continually
HELLING OUT AT COST. How do tho keep up? Are they supported
by charity, or aro they and their advertisements frauds?
Hear th
Salem is a prosperous and growing city, and all its merchants are doing
well and making money, and any right-minded man knows that when a
a merchant advertises to sell "at ce3t," that it is always at what it "costs
tho buyer." Men do not go into business for fun or for their health, but
to niako money.

lie
never advertise to sell off at cot, yet we are constantly 20 to 30 per cent,
lower than any othor house in Salem. Why? Because wo buy from, first

DEATH IN A CYCLONE.
St Louis Visited by a Destruc
tive Wind Storm.
GENERAL IN KANSAS AND MISSOURI
liuildings Unroofed, .Houses Demolish
ed and Much Suffering the Re
sult of the Storm.
At St. Louis yesterday afternoon
a cyclone of great furystruck a largo
section of the city and created sad
havoc. For a width of eighty rods
it cut its way through the densely
populated part of tho city, leveling
nearly everything in its track. As
usual, in such cases, there was little
reason to expect so severe a blast,
and for this reason its work was all
the more fatal. Many roofs were
carried away, houses were shattered
and contents creatly damaged. So
far only about half a dozen are re
ported killed and double that num
ber injured. The storm also extend
ed to East St. Louis and several Illi
nois towns, but with the meagre
news returns no fatalities are rt"
ported.
In Kansas the storm was perhaps
the severest, having raged in nearly
all parts of the state. There much
snow has fallen drifting in some
places twenty feet high. All com
munication by rail is stopped, aud
tho railroads are suffering much
damage.
A dispatch to tho Journal from
Lincoln, Neb., states that reports
received there are to the effect that
a storm of great severity is raging
throughout tho state. A peculiar
feature of the storm is its occurauce
on the anniversary of the terrible
blizzard two years ago, when so
many people perished from the cold.
Reports of the present storm in
dicate that it is no less severe than
that of which It Is the anniversary.
Even as far south as Memphis,
Tcnu., aud in Mississippi the storm
is reported as having been severe.
There heavy rains were experienced
instead of snow.
Death of a Young Millionaire.
San Fkancisco, Jan. 12. George
Mar's, son of tho millionalr glass
maker of Philadelphia, was found
dead in his room at the Palace Ho
tel yesterday. Maris and his com
panion, Clillord Harris.arrived here
December 26th on the ship Eliza
beth which came from New York
via Cape Horn. They had under
taken a trip around the Horn to re
cuperate from the effects of dr'nk.
Both men were sons of weathly pa
rents and were well supplied with
money. Their intention was to re
main in San Francisco a short time
and then proceed on a pleasure tri
to China. The sea voyage had done
them great good. Not a drop of
liquor was to be had aboard and ISO
duys of absolute abstemiousness had
brought back the flush of health to
their cheeks and apparently made
new men of them. The two frieuds
took adjoining rooms at tho Palace
Hotel on Saturday, December 28th
The temptations offered ou every
ha id became too stroug for Maris
and his flriend, and on Now Year's
evening they started out on a de
bauch which they kept up nntil
Wednesday night last, when Maris
took to his bed.
