r mfft ,Vf if. MINT FOR CIGAR SMOKERS. (SWtft. auit.. ra t V I ft. ., w. Hft Mmfinv Ann biKni tiiurcii nnip rsM Always Corer Mild Weeds. .$ my.one in any way connected with fk etfir trade knows that there are lMhion7-or rather fads in the colors f eigwr wrapper. One year it is for dark colors, another for medium and an other for light colors. Th strength of- the cigar does not Mm to wake tnnch difference, for in fears when light colors aro fashionable ft "claro" wrapper with a "Colorado" filler will sell more readily than a "Colo rado wrapper with a "claro" filler we define the Spanish words as does tho customer who thinks (hoy denote tho strength of the tobacco. Wo beliovo we 1 can safely Bay that not ono smoker in a hundred knows what the words really , mean, yet many of tho hundred use tho ' words in purchasing. Dealers aro better informed, for they u are awnro that the words have nothing ' to do with tho strength of tho cigar and not much more with tho color of tho a wrapper, for what one dealer may call a' "Colorado maduro" another will term a "Colorado;" yet dealers when a cus tomer objects to the color of a wrapper will show tho customer that tho box is marked "Colorado," Colorado maduro," etc. as evidence of strength of tho cigar. ''At the present tirao tho fashion is for light colored wrappers, and as is always 'the case the fashipnablo color is the scarcest. Many cigar manufacturers ' 'are now apportioning tho light colors to their customers, and if tho fad con tinues to grow thoy will have to make ' apportionment much smaller. It has even been suggested that an extra price be added per 1,000 for tho light colors, which would certainly not suit the job ber or the retailer. Tho cigar manufac turer would willingly meet the demand v- for the fashionable color, but he cannot do It. lie cannot givo what ho has not v. or cannot gut. If tho jobber and tho retailer (es pecially the jobber) will enter upon an "'educational campaign" this fad for light colors can bo easily and quickly killed. The retailer can explain to the ' customer that tho color of the wrapper ,, does not indicate tho strength of the cigar, and the packing of cigurs of ono color in a box and so marking them is more for uniformity than anything olso. Ho can also tell them that thoro is littlo or no difforenco whon strength is con sidered between "claro" and "claro Colorado," a "Colorado" and a "Colorado maduro," etc., for manufacturers differ in making. Tobacco Leaf. ' GAVE A GRAND POTLATCH. A Ufa I'ull of Excitement. 4 A queer tramp woman, Botty Ann Ar- ' nold, is coniincid in the Central police " ,- station at Dayton, O. She was arrested . for safe keeping, but will probably bo ''released and allowed to contiuuo her ' migratory life. She was born in Logan, ', Hardin county, and when twenty-one 'years of age was engaged to bo married to' a farmor of this volloy. Her uncle abducted her, and since that time, 'i twenty-two years ago, she has boon on the road constantly, Donning man's clothes she easily secured a job as brake 7. man. While crossing tho river at Wheeling she says tho strncturo gave way and precipitated tho freight train crow into 'the river, Sho was tho only ono that escaped. Following tho Ohio river sho arrived at Cincinnati, still in innio nttiro. She secured work on a boat, tho Daniol - Boono, and rolntcs an exciting experi ence in connection with this part of her journoy. , Thoro wero throo wealthy passengers on board destined for Pittsburg. On tho i night after leaving Cincinnati two negro , boat humlu murdered tho three passcn , gers and after robbing them throw their ' bodies into tho river. Sho wus threat- r f ened with death If she informed any ono oi inoir action, umi ui lurrur ui nor mo shejuinpod over tho side of tho boat and ''awamashoro. Several shots wero fired at her, but missod thoir aim, and Botty eecupeu, umiiiiUK ma oiiuiu ouu biiuiuu uiick vu Cincinnati and roamed about for some time. As ovaiiing approached sho ought tho outskirts of tho city, whoro she inteudod to sleep until morning. Sho says sho know nothing of what hap pened until sho noxt found horself in a Cincinnati medical collcgo, whoro bUo had boon taken by n body snatchor, who had chloroformed her and sold her body to students, Site was at once roloased on gaining consciousness, but was warned not to speak a word of what had ocourrod. Her lifo is filled with exciting inci dents hairbreadth escapes. Cincinnati Commorulul Gazotto. Muskiiiulmis urn! Untruthful Men. A young married man, who is now enjoying his first year of housokeopiug, wants to know why it is that green grocers will ulwuys lio about thoir melons, "1 have boon searching for some good inuskinolons till this season," auld this young mini, "and 1 liavo succeeded in finding ono or two out of fifty. But thoro has been no time whon the green grocer who sold mo tho melon did not assure mo on his honor that it was of tho finest quality, I have paid extra prices for melons on tho most solemn assurances that thoy wero clioico uutuiegs, but whon served ou tho tublo they proved to be as insipid as a raw pumpkin. I am satisfied that thoro is a great scarcity of good melons and also that there is an equally great scarcity of truthfulness among the melon dealers." New York Times. ' Mere Historical Taper Weight. r'The ruins of St. Cloud have been sold by auctiou to a Paris builder for about tOi It is presumed that the material will be made into paper weight and similar mementos, as was the marble trot tite ruins of the Tuileries. Paris If I, Tliu Singular Sloitioii u Sltrusli Tiiolt uf HpuiiilllifT 81,400, Speaking with a prominent eanner a few days ago a representative of the Westminister (B, C.) Columbian in quired how the Indians were faring this yei'.r in tho salmon fibbing, and whether thc would be rich enough to indulge in the potlatch. "They won't havo much money to throw away In thut direc tion this season," replied the canner. "Liwt yi'ar n groat many Si washes tnado i;o(.d wages, and potlatches wero all tho ttigo for eome time afterward, They are n curious people, and it is astonish ing tho delight they take in appearing libet al and wealthy in tho eyes of their friends. Last your 1 had an Indian working for mo who earned $1,400. Ho drow the whole of this in a lumpsum anil laid it out in eight muskets, a dozen boxes of crackers and the balance about $1.200 in blnnkots. Then the toblu red man callud all tho Indians .vithin reach together and announced .lis intention of giving a grand potlatch. "Tho blankets wero spread out in a acre field, with tho crackors on tho outside for his friends to lunch on and 'he muskets in the center. When tho ippnintcd time arrived to begin the -en-monies tiio Indian waded througli he ea of blankets to where the mus ets lay. Here he climbed on a box and oegitu a long oration which lasted over ui hour, at tho end of which time ho picked up tho blankets ono by one and umrihed them over the box, signifying -but all Enmity between the tribes pi v ant was forever ended and rifles .voiild no longer bo needed. Then ho javy the signal that the potlatch had ;ommenced,and tho Indian women sailed in mid packed away not only one pair of blankets, bnt as many as thoy could can y. and In a few minutes there was not even a single blanket left for the use of the generous contributor. This grand give away of course Mttde the Si wash very popular, and a brv days after ho was made subchief of fcis tribe. A few weeks later this same Iisdi&n camo to mo dead broko and got a sack of flour on credit." "Is the potlatch common among the ordinary run of Indians?" asked the newspaper man. "As a rule the head men of tho tribe do tills sort of thing," replied (he salmon packer, "but onco in a while an ambi tions young Siwnsh tries to make a name for himself. Last fall a young fellow who had mado a little monoy fishing for mo camo into tho ofllco and got $160 in silver. With this ho climbed on the top of u shack, and after addressing tho multitude for an hour and a half scat- i (.uicu uvvijr ucjib ui kiiu luuuuy uuiuiig tno peopio uoiow. Tins young Indian is looked upon as a coming man, and by tiio tlino ho has squandered tho eurnings of half a dozen seasons' fishing ho will bo mado a chief. But fish aro fow and thuro won't bo many potlatches tliirf year," concluded tho cannery man. Tho I'rcalilcmt of tho Argentine, Tho constitution of tho Argentine lio public is in its principal features idonui cal with that of tho United States'. Nov tholess there aro somo differences worth , of note, Tho president is elected in pr cisely tho same manner as in the United States, but cannot bo re-elected, and his term of ofllco is six years. Ho lias more power than the president of the United States, as far as making appoint ments is concerned, since he only asks tho udvico and consent of tho senato to appoint diplomatic ministers, judges and officers of tho army and navy above tho rank of colonel. He fills all other offices at his own dis cretion, but all his decrees, proclama tion, etc., must bo countersignod by a cabinet minister or olso are valueless. Thus tho constitution makes tho cabinet ministers rosponsiblo for all tho acts of tho prosidout, Tho members of tho cablnot can an swor questions and tako part in tho do batos of tho houso and tho sonato, al though thoy aro not mombors of either body, nor docs an advorso voto on any measuro of tho government carry with it a chungo in tho cablnot, as is tho coso in Franco and England and is becoming tho custom in Chili. Tho powers of tho Argontlno congress aro similar to those vested in tho con gress of tho United States, though some what groator, Tho congross has tho powor to legislate for all the provlncos, dictating codos to be applied in all of thorn, thus securing uniformity of legis lation. Tho provinces reserve tho right to olect thoir own judges, as woll as the other officials that their local constitu tion domands. All fodoral and provin cial judges aro appointed for lifo, and cannot be romovod unless thoy aro im peached and condemned. Now England Magazine. The Vlowerloss City. Tho pot nitmo of Chicago is tho Garden City, or at least it onco was, and the lecond on its coat of arms is, "Urbs in Horto." It therefore Beems Btrnugo to read of a monthly or weekly llowor show in cities like Boston, when an annual flowor show is all wo can boast of. If wo oxcept tho publio parks, there aro fowor flowers in Chicago than in auy great city in tho world. The lato Jumos Vick stated tltat ho sold more flowering plants, shrubs, and flower soeds in Rockford than in Chicago, There aro few private green houses or conservatories in tho city, and tho flower trade hero is very small, and is chiefly confined to tho domands of runorals and weddings. Chicago Jour ual. Too Much uf it Good Thin v. A resident of Belfast, Mo., weut iuto a grocery store a short timo ugo, ordered ten dollars' worth of goods and laid down a silver dollar in payment therefor. The shopkeeper yollod 'That isn't right" as tho customer started to leave. "Oh, yes, that's all right," replied the man. "I've got permission from tho judge to pay off ten cunts ou tho dollar," lie had lately settled uu insolvency upon tho 10 per ceut. basis, and expected to contiuuo that method indefinitely.

That telegraph wire extending from the cavernous depths of the Jones street sower will tell a tale soon and tell it in the city engineer's office. It runs into a machine that looks like a double "speed recorder," such as is ased in measuring tho gait of a railway Wain. A pair of wires lead to the re corder and a drum of paper under tho point of a pen records tho ilow and height of water through the sower In ordinary times and in and after each rain. It is not necessary to insure a sewer inspector's lifo und station him in tho big cenduit: the apparatus does the work. The second drum of paper in the cab inet of tho city engineer's office records the rainfall. Compared, tho two registers show the capacity and performance of tho sewer. The wiro will bo placed in each of the city's main sewers, and the knowledge gained will be used in devising the en largement of tho city's sower system, showing what sewers can stand more branches, and what aro taxed to their full capacity. Assistant City Engineer Grover is the inventor of the apparatus, and it was built in this city. Omaha World-Herald. Cork Soles In Autumn Shoes. Tho heaviest shoes of the fall styles for men's wear have an intermediate sole of cork. Cork itself, sufficiently thick, is a good preventive of dampness, but somo of tho shavings or thin veneers of this material Spit aro used, being full of imporfeotions and air vents, would con tribute but slightly toward keeping the feet dry, Cork whon cut very thin pos sesses but littlo of waterproof quality. Its chief virtue lies in tho fact that it furnishes a thin, elastic cushion for tho solo of tho foot. To add to this desirable feature by more thickness would also tend to keep out moisture, but to secure theso ends the shoe soles must needs ex ceed a desirable thickness. Shoe and Leather Reporter. Glanders in Maine. Tho Auburn (Mo.) Gazette reports somo alarm among tho horse owners of those two cities over tho reappearance of the glanders, and cites cases enough to show that tho tears are well grounded. A number of glauderod horBes there havo already been killed, but tho Ga zette warns people against hitching their horses to public posts or allowing them to drink out of tho publio troughs.
