From the Detroit Times.
A certain editor intrusted department
in his journal to a subordinate, with in
structions to fill it with matter of as
much general interest as possible, but of
special interest to women. The young
journalist was inexperienced, with his
fortune still in his pen, and, anxious to
please his chief and make his department
particularly bright and attractive, he
went abroad into the world which would
read it, for advice. He encountered
clergyman, to whom he unfolded his
instructions. "Ah, that is easily done"
he said. "Avoid all sensationalism and
let religion and morality be your themes.
You can not fail to interest all classes of
women" His next interview was with
a leader of society. DRESS, dinners, and
balls was her dictum. A distinguished
matrOn advised thorough treatment of
everything pertaining to the welfare of
children, anOtable hOusekeeper suggested
lively review of home interests and re-
ceipts; another journalist told him moth
ing would hit the tastes of women like
column of amusing anecdotes, and his
strong minded aunt made a vigorous ar
gument in favor of equal suffrage articles.
Discouraged and bewildered by the field
open before him, he sought consolation
in the society of his best girl, to whom he
explained the situation. Il don't know
which to choose, Nanny" he said: 'All
these topics are of interest to some wo-

BosToN, May 14.-A Springfield dispatch
says that the officers Of tho New England
Tobacco Growers association have inaugu-
rated an important movement to secure the
repeal of oil internal revenue taxes on to-
bacco. Growers packers, aud the trade gen.
orally throughout the country arc to unite
in favor Of an abolition Of the taxes
Assurances Of hearty Cooperation have been
received from the New York Tobacco Leaf
board of trade. A movement has been started
for etfectng a coalition with southern and
western politicians and tobacco men. A
meeting to complete arrangements is to be
held at Hartford on Saturday.
The tobacco men say that to abolish the
tobacco tax would discharge from 1900 to
1000 government employees and save $500, 900
expenses, and annul S30,000,000 of revenue.
They propose to enforce their demands with
such organized determination that neither
party in congress will dare refuse it, for fear
of losing the votes of the toba eco industry in
the presidential election. The New England
growers have an association Of over 1000
members, and ample funds. They feel em-
boldened by their success in securing protec-
tion against Sumatra tobacco which has
saved American growers over Sl,000,000
during the past year.

They Belong TO Two Dnrley Lovers
who Butted Their Drains Out for n
DusIEy Benuty.
"Those skulls have romantic history"

scum to REPUBLTcA n reporter yesterday,
pointing at two gliste ming white skulls in

would ha vo presented the about same appear
ance as the skulls did. One of them showed
compou nd communicated fracture, meaning
literally crushed, while the other showed a
wide and irregular crack or fracture, extond-
ing from tho right eye across tho dome of the
skull to the left ear.
"They are tho skulls of two colored men,"
continued tho attendant, "who engaged in a
desperate butting match at Norfolk some
time ago about negro damsel. 1t appears
that both men were desperately in love with
the girl, and that she was too ficklo to decide
which of them should DO her steady COM
pany.' Spoaking to them one night on the
subject, sho said Ike, you Is sartinly de

Tho mon thoroupon held council of war
outside the house and agreed to meet the next
day and settle tho whole thing by genuine
southern dsrkey butting match, after tho
most approved cornheld and cottonneld rules.
These rules provide that the mon shall stand
twenty pacos apart, and, at the word CO.
rush at each other with heads down. This
to continue until one or tho other of tho men
gives up or is knocked out, the winnor to
to have the girl. In tho case Of the dusSy
Norfolk lovers they only came together once.
Their heads collided with y crash, crushing
them In tho manner described. One Of the

in few hours"
The skulls attracted much attention from
members of the medical congress recently in
session hero. They are in case 8, aud are
numbered 741 and 5000.
Tho pickled heads of trio of noted Indian
desperedoes and murderers-Capt. Jack,
Boston Charley, and Shamokin-who wero
hanged for the murder Of Gen. Candy In tho
Black hills, occupy three jars in the museum.
These "reminiscences of one of the saddest
tragedies of Indian warfare have been kept
from public view in dark closet for several
yoars. 1t is the intention of the authorities.

An Estensive Strike OF Miners.

P1TTsBURG, May 1i.-Eight hundred
miners employed in tho Falls Creek, st.
Mary's, and Hardscrabble mines of Dubois
Pa, have struck against the introduction of
the screen system. Both sides are firm and
q long struggle is anticipated.
A strike of 1,500 coal miners at Canton,
Ohio, is considered inevitable. A contract is
usually signed the 1st Of May between opera
tors and miners for the year, but at meeting
of the miners recently it was decided not to
sign fearing reduction at the Hooking
Valley mines, on which the contract is based.
The report of the threatened strike of 5000
railroad miners of the Pittsburg district is
untrue.
