FORMER NORTH NEQRASKAN The Conviction of Charles Thomas , Who Lived Near Verdlgre for Six Years After the Murder , Has Cre ated a Number of Sensations. Des Molnes , In. , March 7. The hard linnd of justice long defrauded of Its rights seems to have descended with- awful force on everybody connected with the Scolleld murder case. It has taken almost six years to bring Charles Thomas to a conviction of murder ; but from the moment of his conviction , tragedies have been oc curring almost hourly nnd where the end will bo cannot bo foreseen. Thomas' aged father was at homo 111 when the vordlct was returned. The IIOWH of his son's guilt was an awful shock to him and ho has hov ered hot ween llfo and death over slnco. Ills death Is almost certain as a result of the shock. Mother and Wife Collapsed. The mother of the young man Is little nottcr off , while his young wlfo fainted at the announcement of the verdict , and , although restored to con sciousness , had to bo helped from the court room , nnd has boon in a condi tion of utter collapse over slnco. The mother of the murdered girl , after brooding over the sorrow of her daughter's mysterious death for more than five years , had It all brought back to her with quadrupled force during the trial , nnd she , too , old and broken , has collapsed at her homo at Mackshurg , nnd It is doubted whether she will over got well again. Murder and Suicide , Fred Hoffman , n restaurant keeper , crazed by his Interest In the trial , lost his mind completely , nnd murdered his former wlfo and then put a bullet' ' through his own brain. There Is no doubt whatever that ho was driven to Insanity by his Interest In the trial. Ho raved Incoherently over It for days together , nnd threatened to'kill the lawyer for the defense ; finally start ing on the expedition that proved fa tal to both himself and his divorced wlfo. The end Is not oven In sight. The state Is getting ready for a series of perjury prosecutions against witness es for the defense , and the next grand jury. It. Is expected , will Indict as an accessory to the murder at least ono well known man whoso name has boon mentioned constantly as having helped Thomas remove the bpdy of the dead KlrJ from the Thomas homo to the river.

In ca.io Mr. Wright lees not decide to locate In Norfolk , local horsemen have a number of other owners Interested and It Is al most certain that there will bo fast horses hero during the coming sum mer. * The Fremont Tribune learns that there are thousands of dead flsh ly ing on the flanks of the Klkhorn river near that city , some or thorn measur ing as much as three and four feet In length.

There are few business men who vould not Increase their trade If they ould dcvlso mean * to do it. Any nan would bo willing to pay a per- out ago of the Increased profit for the ako of maintaining the now stltnu- us. It Is a rare business man who would not gladly hire an additional alcsman or solicitor If , by BO doing , hat salesman or Solicitor would In crease the bulk of business so much hat the added profits would pay the alary of the now uiaa and leave sur- ilus cash for the house. A good salesman or a good solicitor s one who , by his skill In presenting ho selling points of the goods at hand , s able to make sales which other wise vould not bo made. If a high-salaried alesman did' not sell things which , vcro it not for his presentation , would lot otherwise have been sold , ho vould earn .no more money for his employer than an ordinary fellow. Viul if it were nut possible to make teoplo buy things which , but for the salesman's work , they would have left input-chased , then the simplest child vould be as valuable in a store or In an agency , as the cleverest and most experienced professional. , An advertisement Is merely a sales- nan or a solicitor , which talks to sev eral thousand people at the same time. An advertisement , like a human salesman , may bo so clever that it will create a demand for the goods and wonderfully increase the sales ; > r it may be so commonplace , so un skilled and so devoid of effective pres entation that what it says will appeal to none. Advertising Has Come to Be a Sci ence and a Fine Art. An advertisement must contain rea sons why the reader will find It to his advantage to buy the articles adver tised. An advertisement must be no HO re. and no less than a printed con versation , such as the salesman would speak if he were talking , earnestly ind seriously , to a prospective buyer. It can not ramble if it is to bring re sults. .It can not cover , in the same tine , two separate articles any more than a'salesman dare try to sell , in the same breath , two different things. If must bo clean-cut ; rid of superflu ous literature ; sharp , definite and con vincing. No ad. will pay which is not so writ ten as to create a demand for the ar ticle or articles advertised. Kvery ar ticle advertised should be set off , like a newspaper article , in a department of its own , with a head-line calling at tention to It and with Its every selling point brought out and exhausted just as completely and as thoroughly as is his story written by a newspaper re porter. An Ad Is News. Kvery ad. Is news , In Us way. And It must be written In just as interest ing a manner as Is the news with which it must compete for-favor , on the same page. It 'inu t be clever enough to attract the attention of the prospective buyer. Magazines today are as thoroughly read In the advertis ing pages as they are In the story pages , for the reason that the ads. are news , Interestingly conceived. The Heading Is All-Important. The heading-of an advertisement the smaller the more true , Is all-Im portant In the results which arc to be ga.lned. The heading must be so worded as to attract the attention of the person who is Interested in that particular and who , therefore , may prove a buyer. A person afflicted with sore feet will grasp at any tiny adver tisement whose headline Indicates that there is relief to be found for those pedal extremities. Likewise a house keeper will follow down the wording of any ad , which , In the bold-faced head , Indicates bargains for her de partment be it flatlrons , groceries , hot doughnuts or what not. CUTS , for this reason , are valuable features of any ad. They Instantly show the line of goods that are dis cussed and attract the attention ot the desired ones. And a cut , for this rea son , must pertain to the article ad vertised , and must , In Itself , bo able to display points In the article which will create a demand for It. Any shoe cut , for Instance , will denote that the ad. tells about shoes. But If the cut is a picture of a well shaped , stylishly made , substantial shoe , It will have a tendency to create a demand for that particular shoo , Just as would the Words of a salesman who took time to say that the shoe was of fine shape , up-to-date , hand-sewod and durable. The so-called " " - "catchy" headings which many business man have writ- ten over their ads. , men who have re ceived no returns and quit Investing In space because "it didn't pay , " are not effective. The reason is evident , i'ho general reader , who perhaps reads the llrst few lines from pure curiosity , liilts In disgust. And very frequently the person whom It is desired to in terest , will never look nt the ad. be cause It does not interest him at tha ' mtset. On a newspaper , the greatest f'\ care Is taken to write headlines which will , at the first glance , give the gist of the whole atory. If it la a baseball article , therefore , the fan knows It nt once and will read it. The politi cian will pass by. Dally papers pajr largo salaries for exports who do noth ing' but write the o headlines. But an advertiser will often head hla dla- cusslon with a line which says "Cold Weather is Coming , " when it should have been "Do You Need an Under shirt ? " The man in need might and might not care whether cold weather he will road the lines that follow Just was coming or not. It is a cinch though , that if he needs an undershirt to see what sort of bargain ho can se cure. If ho does need an undershirt or if it happens to be a dentist's ad that tells him his aching tooth can ba pulled painlessly , He Will Vlolt the Advertiser. When ho has done that , the ad. haa done its work. It is then up to tha clerks or the dentist to sell him every thing in the building that ho can poa- slbly use. If they fail to do that. It is new salesmen'that are needed and not a different method of advertising. If nothing but the goods advertised were sold as the result of an ad. , then that nd. surely would not pay. It la the profit made from additional sales , after the buyer has been attracted to the store which Makes Advertising Pay. That Is the reason why leaders can be offered , even at cost or perhaps at- a loss , and still net the advertiser a margin on the t'ransactlon. That to why special sales pay , even though the specials are cut to bed rock. That Is why advertising all of the time , OT- ery day and every day , and with always - ways something newsy , clever , attrac tive to the taste and the purse of tha reader , can bo made to pay and to pay well. It stands to reason that ad vertising MUST NOT BE SPASMOD IC if it is to bring the best results. If a baseball column In a newspaper was printed but once a month , it is easy to see why "fans" would not look to that column when It did , periodical ly appear. It logically follows that a housewife willnot look at a certain corner of the paper today ifor clothes pin bargains , If that corner contained bargains but three times within a year. The readers must be trained to expect to find ads. worth looking at , . before they will take the time to do li The People to Reach. > The people to reach , advantageously , ( I are those ! who can get to the advertls- ' j' ' er , either by mall or In person , to take , } advantage of the articles mentioned. Advertisers in Norfolk naturally desire - 1 sire to reach everybody In the citv. all 1 of the farmers within a driving dls- \ . ; tnnce from the city and other persons ' / in tributary territory who may visit Norfolk. To the end of covering this Identical field , The News has been working for years. It now does cover this field very thoroughly every day In the year. The -rural routes out of Norfolk , of which there are five today , are reached by The News Just as effectually and aa thoroughly as are the homes In tha city. The farmers around Norfolk read The News every day In the week just as they used to read weekly pa pers. Their papers , containing local and telegraph markets and news , are delivered at their doors every day. There is no business In the world which cannot be stimulated by adver tising. It will lujt only gain new pa trons but it will increase the patronage of former ones. Advertising is not a venture. If used Judiciously and , ' systematically it is bound to brine re- . sulW * . There Is no other way out of It. It Is a commodity In which tin business maft Invests for the sake of getting more out of It than he put * Into It. It Is paying one dollar forth * i 4 purpose of making two or threa and many times more than that. It Has Coma to Stay. ' The uncertain period of advertising has passed. As a business getter it ' ' has come to stay and It la growing more and more essential. Local ad vertising will pay in any community , large or small. If it | B done on a icl- . * entitle basis. Done In haphazzard 1 fashion , it Is now , always has been and always will be a waste of money. The business man who advertises in the right way , Is bound to increase his business. The business man who la not content to run along , year after year , In the same channel and never grow In trade , will flnd advertising tha surest , quickest and most dependabla method of satisfactory growth. And newspaper advertising Is tha most economical in the world today because through this medium more people and more territory can be reached , and in an interesting way at that , than in any other method that can be dovlaed.
