They had taste of the paramount question
yesterday,when Mr. KELLEY reported the free
tobacco bill to the House from the committee
on ways and meaus. Even the short debate
that followed its presentation showed how
lively is the feeling on the subject regardless
of party. 1t is a notable step toward the
Substantial reduction =" suggested in
Secretary Folger's report, and is
plainly in accord with the sugges-
tions touching reduction contained
in the Presidents message and it makes its
appearance at time when the minds of all
interested are more or less occupied with the
subject With the two democrats between
whom the next Speakership lies favoring this
radical measure of reduction, it would seem
to have smooth passage were it not for the
opposition it will be likely to meet
from republican members from Kansas
Iowa, and Minnesota. The line was
pretty clearly drawn last session between
drinking and smoking, and it was about an
even thing as between those who regarded
tobacco us the poor mans harmless necessary
solace and those who regarded it as an un-
mitigated evil on level with alcoholic
drink There is also a middle sentiment
which regards tobacco smoke as neither
stencil nor incense; but this class is
also divided. Some will oppose the bill
on the ground that it is an aid to the tariff
men, and others will favor it for local reasons,
and on tho ground that it helps to secure the
requisite reduction. This carly opening of
the question will be the means of coming Mt
once to the temper of the House on both this
and the kindred subject of tariff revision.

BAZAAR AT THE RICHMOND THEATRE
Tomorrow night, at the Richmond Thea
tire, the Bazaar for the benefit Of st.
Joseph's Female Orphan Asylum will be
opened under the auspices OF the Catholic
ladies Of the city. The parquet Of the The
atre will be lloored. and all that taste and
skill can accomplish will be introduced in
order to render the occasion one Of the
most deserving Of the kind that has per-
haps ever taken place here. The articles
on exhibition, the company which will
gather, the general surroundings, and, In
fact, everything, will be found richly
worth seeing. Beside, all this Is the object
for which the Bazaar is held, the character
of which is clearly implied in the word
"orphan.v When one can aid the father
less and help to care for little ones who
have never known a mothers love and at
the same time receive the entire value OF
the money expended, surely there will be
none found refusing. The ladies deserve
success IN their laudable enterprise, and
will beyond doubt reap its full reward. Go
to the opening Monday night, and you will
want 10 go every night thereafter.
