From which IL Will be seen that Virginia
still maintains the chief place in this great
Industry. IL Is to be hoped that her enter
prising men will keep her there.
This showing would be very much more
gratifying had this product been wholly
made from leaf raised within our own
limits. The growing fancy for "sweet !"
flavorings in plug-tobaccO has compelled
our manufacturers to resort largely to west
ern leaf-mainly the "Wbite Burley."
How long this fancy will obtain cannot, OF
course, be foIeseen; but while it lasts the
growers OF manufacturing grades in Ylrgl'
MIA should see for themselves how ''White
Burley" will work on their land-in other
words, produce what their customers want.

Mrs. Augustus w. Brook, Of East

COUNCILMAN GLEASON


Tries To Kill Newspaper Man from Illinois.
About quarter past o clock this morn
ing Tim. Gleason, Councilman from the
Fourth Ward, staggered into Lew. Ber-
nard's sample-room, on Vine street. near
Fifth. In the back room several gentlemen
were engaged in conversation, among them
Jim White, the ex-detective, and Patrick
Redmond, newspaper man, from Quincy,
III. Gleason was so drunk he hardly knew
what he was doing. He stepped up to a
man named Ennis and pointed pistol at
him. Seeing this, Redmond grabbed Glea-
sons arms, when scufle ensued between
them. The pistol was discharged, the ball
lodging in the wall. The men fell to the
floor. with Gleason on top, when the
weapon was again discharged, the bullet
going through glass partition. Gleason
then hammered Redmond awhile until
pulled off by the bystanders. Gleason was
arrested and taken to the Central Station,
where he was charged with shooting with
intent to kill. Redmonds injuries are very
painful, although not dangerous
In the Police Court this morning Gleason
waived examination, and was bound over
to appear before the Grand Jury to answer
the charge of shooting with intent to kill.

Mr.. W. ]. Elliott Explains

The State Superintendent of Public Print
ing, Mr.. W. J. Elliott of this city, writes to
explain and deny the statement in a special
to the STAR that he is to be Investigated.
He says:
1T is only necessary for me to state that
the measurement of the constitutional
amendments was made in the absence of
any specific law, by the agate square, the
same as used OH the STAR. When the Leg
islature met this measurement was called
to their attention by myself, and instruc-
tions asked as to whether it should stand.
There were no bills paid or money drawn
from the treasury"
Mr.. Elliott tnen quotes the House resolu-
tion and his own reply, showing that he was
only asking that his duty as public officer
be made clear enough for him to act intel
ligently. We do not repeat the resolution
and reply as given in MI. Elliott's card, be-
cause the matter is clear from the above
without doing 80.

burlington Hawkeye.I

She was a beautiful girl, fair as the
morning, handsomely arrayed, little
gloved hands that you even would like
to have box your ears. Drawn by the
irresistible fascination of his inviting
eyes, she approached the masher, who
made room for her beside him. Her eyes
beamed on him in beauty only equaled
by his own, her voice was sweeter than
the song of the siren when she spoke to
him. She had to speak to him, how
could she help it2
"Sir," she said, and the music of her
voice thrilled the car. "Sir, is this seat
engagedw
He looked up at the vision of glowing
cheeks and laughing eyes, marble brow
and clustering curls, and he relented,
even the masher's heart warmed toward
the lovely girl, the latest victim Of his
manly charms.
"Oh, certainly not" he said, and his
bow was study of grace for the steam
man. "Oh, certainly not you are en-
tirely welcome; I shall be only too hap
py-" "Then," cried the charmed vic
tim, Mother you can sit here beside this
gentleman" s..
And an old woman, seventy-three il
she was day, with no teeth and only
one eye, small box, big band-box in
bag, green reticule and an umbrella,
two baper bags and a piece Of calamus
root, tottered into the proffered seat and
sat down and piled her things into the
young mans lap. And the girl, the beau.
tiful girl, went and sat down beside the
passenger with the sandy goatee, who
was 50 bashful that he couldn't and
didn't say word to his companion all
| the way TO Newark, and blushed to his
ears every time the tat passenger winked
at him.
