All About the New Place,

Senior Ernesto Ponce, so long and so fayora-
bly, known in connection with the tobacco
trade in this city, has opened place for the
manufacture and sale of cigars at No. 81 Com
mercial street. Last evening he invited the
reporters of the daily papers to take look
over the rooms, and after pleasant little sup
per with the Senior at the United States Hotel,
they made their way TO Commercial street,
where they became acquainted with many fine
brands of cigars, and listened to much enter
tanning gossip about the tobacco leaf and the
various ways in which it is prepared for the
delectation of man. Some old beliefs we're ex-
poded, and one most emphatcally confirmed
that in the lavish hospitality of the Castil-
ian.
Senior Ponce's manUfactory will employ
some thirty men, who will soon be at work
The factory is the largest in the State, and the
skill and taste of its owner give assurance that
the goods made by the factory win be of the
best In order to attract custom, the front Of
the shop has been fitted up as a retail store, and
is to have an electric light, SO customers can
see what they are smoking. Billiard and pool
tables have been put in. His visitors dared
game at pool last night, the newspaper team
being matched against QUE made up OF the
best players in the city. Had the chalk given
outsthe newspaper fellows might have come
out winners AS it was, too many scratches"
vera recorded. But if the Seniors customers
enjoy themselves as well as his visitors did, 81
Commercial street will be one Of the most fire.
