The Chronicle has often ex pressed its views regnrding tlie result of the filthy cigarette habit and therefore we copy the following from the Telegram, which is in keeping with our former comments : A lenewal of the discussion of the effects of cigarette smoking is oc casionally observed. Not long ago a committee of London medical men, selected by a medical journal, and presumably prejudiced neither way, investigated the cigarette and found no harm ir. it. The cemmittee say they found no deleterious substances tn cigarettes. Other phpsicians have from time to time given similar testi mony. But, on the other hand, wf read . almost every week of disease, trental or physical, and crime caused by the excessive life of cigarettes. In some of these cases the cigarette may be wrongfully accused of being tbe cause, yet often it is known, locally to be so, and nobody denies the fact The worst effect of excessive cigar ette 6moking by boys and weak minded youth is that it often leads to the use of morphine, cocaine and other such drugs, which invariably means cwift and utter ruin. There may be varieties in cigar ettes as in other things; some, used in moderation, may be uninjurious but in spite of the testimony of the medical men II may be set down ns o certain fact that some, if not most. of the brands ordinarily bought by cigarette fiends are a poisonous evil, pure and simple. It may be charged against them, without fear of sue cessful contradiction, that tbey dull the eye ond brain, retard physical growth, injure the heart and deaden the moral sensibilities. Besides this tbey are nastily offensive to almost every one who does not use them. A good deal depends on the per eon. A full grown, full-blooded, active man might not be seriously or even apparently injured by a habit that would make a boy of 12 to 15 years a mental, physical and moral wreck; end any boy of this age who continuously and excessively uses cigarettes is pietty sure to become such a wreck. This discussion, however, is not so timely nor important as it was some yeais ago. The cigarette habit is not so bad among boys and youth as it wis then. The crusade against it by good women and girls has done much to check the vice among Coth boys and men, and the fact that a cigar ette smoker can scarcely find em ployment in a refutable business house or office has pretty well cured joung men of tbe habit. CORXilN HISTORY. The interest which the United States Is taking in making an intcrest ing corn exhibit in tbe Paris exposi . tion of 1900 is chiefly economic, of course. Corn is tbe most valuab'.e of all the products of the United States. It represents more money than any other one article produced in this country. Moreover, its lead is lengthening instead of shortening. Corn crops which pass the 2,000,000, 000 bushel maik have grown com mon in recent years. They will undoubtedly occur still oftener in the near future. It is to the interest of the country to popularize this article of food in the rest of the world to the greatest possible extent. l!ut corn at one time may be said to have figured In the political history of the United States Just as prominently as it does in the coun try's economic development. The earlier white men on this continent record t'icir surprise at the extent to which the Indians used this cereal as an article of food, The length of time which the red men could con duct campaigns through the forests on a small supply of dried corn, wTinA they would sometimes pound into a nicnl with stones and eat raw, and at other times bake Into a sort of bread, or roast it on the ear, was a revelation to the Spaniard, trench and Knglisb visitors to the preseut territory of the United States two or three centuries ago. The new comers, however, quickly adopted the usages of the aborigines in this particular, and corn was thus made to figure with a good deal of con spicuousness in American history. One of the reasons why the French of Canada could never hope to maintain themselves in the contest for supremacy with the English and the residents of tbe thirteen colonics was that corn could be grown north of the lakes and the St. Lawrence in limited quantities only. This valu able American product, which the Indians with their stone implements could plant between the tumps of their rude clearings or on the prairies, could be utilized to an im portant extent by those Indians only who resided in what is now the United States. The more northern tribes could grow it only in trifling quantities, and their French allies were thus deprived of a valuable aid in tbe maintenance of their power. Corn was one of the factors which gave the victory to tbe English and the Americans in the war which ex polled the French from North America in 175.VC3. It thus re served the better part of Iho conti nent to the younger and more pro gressive branch of the Anglo-Saxon race, who appropriated it a dozen years after the French were driven out. Here is an additional reason why Americans should take an in interest in the expansion of the market for corn, and happily they are introducing it to a larger and greater poition of the, world. The exports in 1899, 18G,000,000 bushels, have been four times as great as they were five years ago. Globe-Dengo-crat. The St. Louis Globe-Democrat thinks "Goebel's contest before the legislature will end just as it did before tbe state election board, that the candidate who had the most voies has been inaugurated, nnd the legis lature will not disturb this arrange ment." It adds: "Notwilhstanding that Democratic majority m the legislature, Goebel is politically dead. All Kentucky Democrats are not dis honest. Fortunately for themselves and the state, a very large proportion of them have some regard far the will of the people." The official spelling of tl)3 United States' new possessions in the Gulf of Mexico is declared to be Puerto Rico. This is how the name will be spelled on government documents. It is a concession to the feelings of the islanders which is well enough to gratify. Nevertheless, the ultimate spelling will be Porto P.ico. When the inhabitants of that island becdme Americanized they will simplify the orthography of tLeir locality. For the time being, however, Puerto Rico goes." When H was reported that General Mcthuen had compelled the retreat of the Boers from Modder river it was announced that he would turn east and march directly on IJIocm fontein, the capital of the Orange Free Stale. When ho moved for ward be found a force of 12,000 Boers disputing his march cast as well as north. After a second battle ho was content to assume the de fensive and fortify his position. England's national debt will prob ably be increased 100,000,000 by the war with the Boers. The debt at present is nearly $3,000,000,000. In the year 1815 it was $4,500,000,000. Since 1S83 the reduction lias been 8010,000,000. If tbe British win the gold mines will furnish an in demnity. Expression of (iratltude.

ThU being; the neuson of fii-h yarns John Kill-Lie, who. gayt the Chicago Tiineb-llernltl, lias for yeara conduct 1 most of the shorthand work nt nationn! conventions, sprung this story at the Press club. It took the biscuit, so to sjauk: "About tlie funniest tliinjr I saw," he paid, "wns while on u vessel down off llatterus inlet or some point near there. One day we ran into about forty thou sand million sharks. There was n lot of them, and I wondered if they were nil there for me. I do think sharks give everybody a sort of creepy feeling. We had some fun with them. There was n pussenger on board who hud had some experience with the beasts before, lie went to the cook and got him to make a lot of dumplings, lie came on deck with three or four dozen of them and be gan tossing them to the sharks. They snapped them down eagerly. Now you must bear in mind that these dough bulls in coming from the cook had time to cool on the outside, so that ns they slipped down the shark's throat be did not notice anything out of the w ay. l!ut the inside of the ball was like n fiery furnace, nnd in a minute after it had been swallowed the heat began to net. I don't believe there is anything hotter than Lot dough, and if not exposed to tlie air it keeps hot. Well, you should Lave seen those sharks jump and plunge nnd throw themselves. I ncveaw any thing like it in my life, and, while I am always opposed to cruelty, it doesn't seem as if there was any Lnrni in doing anything to h shark." WEDDING WITH HYMNS. Tlie I'nlqne Ceremony Hecently Per formed In a Nebraska Mis alon Church, The western frontier often contrib utes unique and interesting incidents that never are exploited in the public prints, and (lie following is cue that occurred recently at a little mission church in Hyannis, Neb. A couple wanted to get married, and it was nec essary to send 30 miles for n minister, and people came from miles around to see f.ie knot tied. The little mud and wood structure in which Sunday meet ings were held once in two or three weeks was filled before tlie hour for the ceremony, and the minister was there promptly on time. Jlut the couple w ere laggard. .Minutes grew into quar ter hours nnd even to an hour, but the limn nnd woman appeared not. The minister read the Scriptures, said a prayer and two hymns were sung, and still ro l.i idal couple. Then it was pro posed to have short addresses to fill up the interval. Then the minister gave out :i hymn, and just as the people had sung: "Oh, happy day, that fixed my choice, Well may this (flowing heart rejoice." the couple entered thechurch. Theeer cmcny was promptly performed, con gratulations were exchanged and the new couple started fi.r 1hi ir ranch. As they went from the doorway 1hs min ister said: "Let us close by sinking the third verse," which runs like this: " 'Tla done, the great transaction's done. He drew me, nnd I fallowed on." MAKING OF A DRAMATIC STAR The Actor Moat lie Carefully liloitcd So aa lo Catch Pub lic Attention. 10 . The rewards of success on the stage are liberal, insists Franklin 1'yles, the dramatist and dramatic critic, wiiting of '-The Theater and lis I'cople" in the Ladies' Home Journal. They nre wen only by providing real enti rluinment of sonic sort. The favorite grows slowly into favor, as a rule, but there are ex ceptions. A strong play with n fitting role may carry an uelor into celebrity at once. Managers ere eve rcn thcaJert to find some on of whom n star may be made. When one is chose n for that pur pose a contract is rimele with him for a term or years, usually five. The actor receives Ihe salary he had been accus tomed to, nnd also a share of the profits, increasing from as little as ten per cent, the first year to ns much n so the last. The manager chooses the plays, forms the supporting company and conducts the business ns he pleases. If the manager is putting forward a star who will appeal to the better grade of audiences, his methods of exploitation will be dignified, yet he will neglect nothing to arouse seemly interest that i, he will seek space in the newspapers by Laving the actors address literary bodies, discuss questions of ds-nmni... art with reporters and do othVr things to catch intellectual ntt. ntinn it,., ei, endnimed at cannot be gained unless the star gives tLe money's worth of enter tainment to his audiences.

The tout has developed rap idly since book-betting first became popular. In the olden time, the tout was usually a negro stable hand, who was sincere in trying to sell what h't regarded as grxel information for a couple of dollars or so. Then, when the real information was lacking, fake tips were offered, the little darkies relying on their general appearance to bear out their claims of stable connections. The little darky was soon succeeded by the white boy, and as the white boy grew into a man, he continued his oc cupation, continually changing his methods as the public became better informed as tothe doings of this fixture of the race track. Now the old ragged tout is a thing of the past. The touts of the day, or "Lustlers," ns they esll themselves, nre very careful of their appearance, and the better they can dress the more successfully they can operate. Many, too, do their work w ith out ever going near the race track. The Xew York Telegfraph tells the following story of Low a pair of topnok-hers te- cureel a good-sized bank roll from a Xew York broker who was anxious to make a lot of money in a hurry: Only lately two touts arrived in New York with $l,d')0, good credentials from far western business people, and were supposed to have a stable nt Shecpshead. They became acquainted in some manner with a Wall ctreet man. lie was informed gradually that by being discreet he could 'j:ne out' with the two, and when they were ready to 'cut a watermelon' Le should be informed. "Finally one day one of the schem ers arrived at tlie broker's office in a hurry. He held a telegram asking him to 'come on at once' from his partner at Cincinnati: The money was to be bet in the western pool rooms to get the best price possible. He woulel take four hundred from tLe broker to show him how it was done. "The Wall street man begged to be allowed to bet a thousand, but the tout refused. "Next day Le returned. The broker was excited aa the tout pulled out a roll of Venturies." " 'Here's nine hundred.' he said. 'Our horse was second. W'c bet on him both ways, nnd you nre five hundred win ner on it, while we are about even. We saved our money and that's all. Mr. Howard wired this from Cir.e-innnti.' "The New- Yorker could hardly con tain himself. lie asked the tout to 'take half,' and his offer- was indig nantly refused. 'I like yon. that's all, and want to sec you win,' said the gen erous tout. The broker was not satis fied, for Le wanted to bet more, a great deal of money, nnd 'win n pot.' Tlie tout would call to-morrow and tell hfin their plans. The broker had all night to figure on the delights of winning money on the races. Two days later both touts called. They end the broke r went in his private eifiice, where thev told him the next dnv their horse was out to win, but he Lad better let their man bet whatever he wifhed. " 'We will give yon a chance, but yon will have to bet about five thousand, for we shall bet ten thousand nnd the price will get down to even with all that going on, nnd we shall be hurling ourselves ny netting yours, which will help to cut the price.' "The broker ngrced to bet the money, and more, one! wanted to let two friends 'in.' "That night the friends gave the broker $2,000 each as a result of Lis entLusiasm. Next morning he drew Lis clieck for $5,000 nnd went with the two men to his bank, where he cashed it and the checks of his two freinds. The money was given to them and t!i broker was to rail at the Savoy hotel, where they were stopping, that night at ten oVlock, with his two freinds, to receive his money ond be o guest at n little wine dinner. An Lour later two gentlemen hurriedly paid their bill at the Savoy, and an early train carried them to Montreal, whence n steamer bore them to Europe to enjoy the fmi8 of their intelligence nnd industry. The broker gave his friends their money back, and he never 'hollered.' nnd timh. ably never will. He cannot nfford to. The two gentlemen wbo 'turne-d the trick' are known on race tracks from 'Frisco to lirighton Ilench as 'Miiln Solly' nnd 'I'retty Willie.' A business man who juggles with fortunes in l,i own line will go to the track nnd allow himself to be dupe d by a pair of 'touts' who tell him a Mery which, if he would stop to think about, would never ele ceive him. At the track, however, Le is in a different world, and ns a rule the smarter he is in business the easier he is to Influence." St. Louis Olobe-lJem- ocrat.
