Fernandez replied that there would be no cruelty and no bIoodshed, and that there would be ofily a bull, red rag, man and stick. replied to him: Now, you do this to make money, and if you think the peo- pie of New York, who are accustomed to very high-seasoned and sensational amusernents both day and night, are go- ing to be satisfied with yourself a red rag, stick and bull then you are greatly mistaken. They pay large prices, but then they expect something for their money. They may go to see your harm less performance once, perhaps, in igDor- ance, but they will not 90 aga1n except with rotten eggs to shower on you. So you see that, financially, it won't pay except to violate the law. and then you will get into very deep water. You can rest assured that this society and its off cers will be present at your performance, and will watch with jealous and lynx eyed scrutiny all you do, and the mo- ment that you trespass on the law, let it be ever so little, the performance will cease and you and your men will be arrested.' That was the encourage ment which I gave to the gentlemen who pro- pose introducing bull fights among us. So long as l am alive 1 am determined to use all my efforts to prevent so debas- ing and uncivilized pastime in my country, believing as I do that nothing would send it faster down to perdition, or to the moral, political or intellectual condition of Spain than such exhibi- tions."

Ladies and Cigarettes,
N. Y. Cor. Boston Courier.

That great many ladies indulge in the fragrant cigarette is an open secret
 Indeed, the custom has become so uni versal that it can hardly be called a secret at all. It used to bevery common for girls, when party of them met in some quiet place, where there were no
 men, to take few puffs at a cigarette for the sake of the forbidden fruit sers ton. But now they are more bold about it, and will venture to say that the majority of New York girls smoke cigar cites. A number of gentlemen have told me that their wives would take a cigarette after dinner when they took their cigar, and they approved of the
 custom. l knew one lady, one of the highest born in the land, who was an inyeterate smoker until forbidden by her physician. Spanish, Russian and Polish ladies smoke almost as much as the men, and no one thinks the worse of them for it.. I should not like to see ladies smoke cigars or pipes, but l can see no impropriety in an occasional cigarette. There is great difference ln the way they are smoked. l have seen some women smoke cigarette so dain- tily that it was beautiful sight to watch the delicate smoke curling up from their rosy lips. while others puff away in such masculine manner that one be-
 comes thoroughly disgusted. l have been at number of dinner parties where cigarettes were passed around to the ladies when the cigars were brought to the gentlemen. I am talking about the best people now, and not Bohemians. If the walters of Delmonico's or the Brunswick would tell you, you would be surprised at the number of private par ties where cigarettes are smoked by la- dies. If you ask lady plump out whether she smokes, she will evade the question until she has sounded your opinions, and if they are favorable she will generally confess in the affirmative. 1 have heard some people say they would rather see woman drink than smoke; that they thought the latter more masculine. do not think so, and the effects of cigarette are certain ly more innocent than of champagne or whiskey. sa.aA p5aw sssr &I

Baggage Smashing.

NtW tOTk hcrHlu.
 The periodical complaints of summer travellers about baggage smashing are beginning to multiply and are more poignant this year than usual. The superiority of the arrangement on our railroads and steamboats for the con- veyanoe of baggage accompanying pas sengers, oyer those practiced on British and European lines of transportation, is frequent boast of Americans, and so far as it relates to checking and local delivery the boast is warranted. But the American railroad or steamboat DOT ter is the champion baggage smasher of all the world, and what does it avail that trunk is accurately checked and promptly delivered if 1t is smashed in the processf The superintendents of our transportation lines need to give at tention to this evil. We have examined somewhat minutely many of their codes of rules for the conduct of subordinates, and while we have found decent de- meanor toward passengers expressly en- joined in many instances, in none have we ever found a similar injuncuon con corning bageage. It is true that trunks are often previously large and heavy, but equally true that there are many aggravating passengers, and there is no justification for railroad or steamboat line, which undertakes to transport both with due care, to abuse one more than the other.

A Buddhist Fable.

Bodhisat was tradesman who went from village to village to dispose of his wares. One day when at the house of a carpenter whose head was bald like a copper porringer, a misquito alighted thereon; and the carpenter called to his son, who was near to drive 1t away. The son taking sharp axe tor this pur
 pose. aimed a blow at the insect, but split his fathers head in two, and killed him. On seeing what he had done, Bodhisat said that an enemy was better than foolish relative or friend.

Oapom on the United States.
Post-Dispatch.


 M. Victor Capoul, the French tenor, has been furnishing the Paris Ngar0 with graphic account of his extended professional tour through the United States. Very naturally this superior person has much to say about our hotels. He says that they are magnificent pal aces, such as one never sees in France, but the talented French artists literally perish of hunger in them. He complains bitterly of the boiled beef and the OK tail soup thick with pepper. We long ago gave up all attempts Tn this country to please opera-singers. Hotel proprie- tors have worn themselves out in the effort and have quit in despair. In view of the fact that nearly all our leading hotels employ French cooks one would naturally think that even the most deli cate and fastidious of the French singers might manage to survive after fashion in our midst But 1t is a peculiarly of the Gallic warbler that he is never con- tented outside of his own fair land. Give him dozen Parisian cooks in this country and he would then rall against the texture of the meats and the fiber of the vegetables. The oper-singer is noth- ing but voice and a stomach, and one would think from the amount of trouble that this interesting class creates about hotels that ten times more atten- ton is given to the cultivation of the latter than is bestowed upon the former. An average singer in good working order can eat more than hired man. When it comes to drinking the stowage capacity is simply enormous. It is not an un- common thing to see great artist like Campanini or Brignoli wash down din- ner that would founder a deck-hand with a quart bottle of claret and syphon of seltzer.

Money to Loan-Treatment of the I'm
 same Poor-The Town Beneficiaries-
 Licenses Recommended and Bills App proved.
 The regular monthly meeting of the Board of Selectmen was held last evening. Present, Selectmen Andrew (presiding), Reynolds, Feldman, Cooper, Hart and Crawford.
 A vote authorizing the trustees of the old almshouse farm to loan money in their hands on first mortgage security was passed Town Agent Reynolds stated that the town had twenty-six patients in the Middletown Insane Asylum, thirteen in the Danvers (Mass.) asylum, and sixty-one insane and idi- ot patients in the almshouse. Selectman Andrew said that the number of insane poor was constantly increasing, and the time was not far distant when the town would have to erect building expressly for this class In other large towns where this plan had been adopted great saving in ex- penses had been made. MT. Feldman thought the Legislature should pass an act providing that the State pay the same proportion of expense for the support of insane at hospital in New Ha- ven that it did in Middletown.
 Selectman Andrew thought that while such a law could not be secured, yet hospital in | N6W 1hV6u WOu1O D0 pe1bIOA4AOo py oAO SOoAA- ty and save the town $100 per week in ex- penses.
 On the suggestion of MT. Reynolds, MT Andrew thought that perhaps 1t would be policy to include only incurable cases 1n his estimate.
 Selectman Hart inquired how much less the demand on the town for assistance was In summer than in winter.
 The Town Agent replied that the demand was no less, and had been on the increase for the past five or six years The demand by laborers for work now was as great as in Feb ruary or March.
 Selectman Feldman advocated connecting the old and new almshouse buildings with the steam heating apparatus. On his motion, ,Se- lectmen Hart and Reynolds were appointed committee to inquire and reportsi sin regard to the feasibility of the plan.
 The Board signed 8 warrant authorizing the Tax Collector to collect taxes on list of 1879 by due process of law. Similar war rants will be signed by the city and school district officers.
 The following applicants were recommend ed for licenses: Edward Ryder, 69 State street; w. H. Mallory, 192 State; Thomas Heenan, 135 Hamilton; Ann Carroll, AS York Jacob Mann, 20 Crown.
 The appointment of military enrolment officers was postponed for one week.
 The following bills were approved: Gen. eral account, $71.50; construction account, $66; outside poor, $305.50 roads and bridges $28 50; almshouse account, $15.50; Lakevil1e school for imbeciles, $592.41. The last bill covers charges for two years. Ad- journed.
