Interesting to Cigar Dealers.

"Did you know cigar dealer vio-
lates the law nearly every time you
buy a cigar?" asked an officer of a
Gazette representative the other day.
"Well, no, l did not know it," was
the scribe's response. "How does he
do it?"
"Just this way" pursued the officer.
"You call for cigar; the dealer takes
a handful from the box, spreads them
out before you, and after you have Sc
lected what you want he returns the
remainder to the box. This is a vio-
lation of law. The dealer has no
light to return those cigars to the box,
and he could be punished for it. -

A SUPERSTITIOUS YOUTH.
VINO Carried Rodents Head 10 Rid
Himself of Warts.


Portland tor.l News.l
Some Portland boys have peculiar
whms, and a certain one employed
by the Telephone Company has de-
veloped one which put to flight all
the superstitions ever possessed by
Tom Sawyer or his illustrious friend
Huckleberrv Finn. The messenger
had occasion to go into the Western
Union Telegraph Office yesterday
morning, and the offensive odor about
him made him the cynosure of all
noses, and the contempt of every pro-
boscis. Upon being questioned he
produced from a pocket in his trousers
the badly decomposed head of a ro-
dent and began making explanations.
He said certain boy friend who had
consulted fortune-teller, informed
him that if he should catch a rat in a
trap, behead it and carry the head in
his pocket until it was thoroughly de
composed, all the warts on his HANDS
would disappear without making an
objection, and it was only desire to
rid himself of large crop of these
knohby ornaments that impelled him
to comply with the directions. He
was told to carry the head as long as
he desired, but to leave it in the open
air when he entered the Western
Union Office.

May Be Reformed,

A prominent lawyer, who had be-
come SO much addicted to the use of
intoxicating beverages that at times the
habit overcame him, one day entered
the courtroom in which his friend and
former law partner was the presiding
judge. The counselor, who had been
drinking freely, but did not at first
show it, took seat at the table in
front of the bench. A case in which he
was interested was called, and he took
part with much gravity and decorum
in the examination of the witnesses.
A question propounded by his oppo-
nent was objected to by him, and the
judge, after listening to brief discus
sion. decided against his friend. This
seemed TO excite the alcohol within him
to an unwonted degree. Springing to
his feet he exclaimed: "Such decis-
on AS that is so preposterous that |
will forever hide myself behind the
shadow of Blackstone and will retire
from the professionn' He seized his
hat. planted it on the back of his head,
and rushed from the courtroom. HIS
friends and one of the clerks hurried
after him. 1--WE took him out and
picked him up" said the clerk in re-
lating the story, and he came back
after recess and made full apology to
the court, after which the case was
proceeded with and resulted in YER
dict in his favor. In speaking of the
occurrence afterward he said: 1T was
not I that was speaking, but the liquor
that was in me- He made up his mind
to give up drinking altogether, and is
now one of our best known and most
successful practitioners. "-New York

Her Baby Boy was Dead.


An intelligent young Irish woman, with
swollen eyes and tear stained cheeks, alighted
from the mail express at the Union Depot at
1910 o'clock yesterday, and made her way to
the ladies' waiting.room. In her arms she
carried babe closely wrapped in comfortable,
tidy clothing, while little 3-ycar-old boy
toddled along at her side. When the woman
sat down in the waiting-room and looked
about on the strange faces around her she
seemed dazed and bewildered as one whose
feelings had reacted after violent burst Of
grief The little boy seemed to share instinc-
lively in his mothers grief, and looked sor-
rowfully in her face with his big bright eyes,
wondering why she was SO sad and quiet.
1t took the tender-hearted ladies In the room
but an instant to see that the woman was a
stranger and in trouble, and ina few minutes
they had learned her simple story. She had
come direct from Ireland and had pleasant
trip all the way, thinking of meeting her hus-
band, John Logan, who worked In 'shed,"
as be called IT. in one Of the big mills in Pitts
burg, and had sent her nice sum of money
to come to him. But when near at her tire
some journeys end, somewhere near Latrobe,
her baby boy, is months old, took violently
Ill and now 1t is dead. Then the poor woman
unwound the wraps from about the child and
looked distractedly at its cold, white face,
while the ladies wiped away their tears and
one young woman kissed the child and wept
as If 1t had been her own.
Just then the door opened and powerful,
broad-shouldered man over six feet high, APP
peared. The woman's first impulse was to
rush into the big mans arms and kiss him,
but before their lips could touch his eyes
caught sight Of the dead child and he turned
away from the little woman and cried like a
heart-broken child. He was John Logan, the
man who had worked IN the "shed," and
though he had never seen his babe before, his
joyful expectations had been strung so high
in the certainty of seeing it alive and happy
that he lost control Of himself until one Of the
depot officers told him kindly to bear his grief
like man.
The man took the babe in his arms and
walked away, followed by his wife and little
boy, to the home that was waiting to receive
them full of gladness and relating happy
tales of their long separation instead of
over the new separation that could
not be ended on earth. ....
The child was hale and hearty until 1t reach
ed Latrobc and died cbetween Greensburg
and Penn Station, presumably from the effects
Of intense heat and probably drinking ice
water.

Holloway College.

Holloway college is magnificent in
stitution. says London Truth, but the
idea is fantastical Fancy $50 girls, all
under exclusively feminine training
and teaching, each with a separate bed
room and sitting room, besides con-
versaton room for every six, and a re-
fectory, library, lecturc-rooms, and
picture-gallery! No male is to be al
lowed on the premises. The service in
the chapel is to be 'Christian," but not
associated with any church or sect.
There is an altar under II canopy of
carved oak, an organ. and stalled seats.
The side is noble-high, airy, and SPA
terrace gardens. The question remains,
however, where are the pupils and the
teachers to come from? The governing
body is an absurdedly weak one-quite
grotesque. l hear that Mr.. Martin
Holloway has purposely arranged to
have body of amiable noodles, and
means to rule the whole place himself.
In fact the whole thing is an absur-
dity, and the queen would have been
wise had she had nothing to do with it.
The late prof. Holloway was q
quack, who sold pllls-which were
neither better nor worse than thousands
of other pills-and harmless ointment,
with which he recommended persons
to anont themselves. Pills and oint-
ment he pushed by means of advertise
ments, and naturally made much money
by them; and it is said that he used
plaintively to regret that he had to put
these remedies in boxes which cost
more than their contents. The college
was nothing but a gigantic advertise
ment for the nostrums, and as they are
still sold, all this fuss and nonsense
about it, may lead silly people to ina
CINE Ito the great benefit of his heirs)
that they will readily benefit their
health by gulping down the pills and
rubbing themselves with the ointment.

The Butter Law.
The
Safe Register.

SAFE Register.
The bill to tax and regulate fraudulent but
ter has passed both houses of Congress, and
If signed by the President, ought to aid
honest industry considerably. United States
laws are usually respected and enforced, while
State laws are of little benefit and seldom en-
forced. The fact that the National authority
declares oleomargarine and butterine frauds
and must be sold onlyawh rightly branded,
will go far to discourage the business. The
tax of two cents per pound will amount to
nothing when there is at least a clear profit
of fifteen cents per pound, if sold as or eamery
butter, If, however, no more effort is made
by United States officers than by State officers,
to detect the fraud, 1t will all amount 10 moth
ing. The only way to detect the fraud, is to
seize the suspected articles offered in the mar
kets, and make scientific and microscopic
test. And il the United States officers do not
do this, the law will be as great a farce as the
law of the State is. Our opinion is the law
will never be enforced, and that honest but
ter business is utterly doomed. But wait,
and in the meantime the creamery establish
mentS will 90 to the wall

Too Much Marrying.

The real cause of the late expulsion of the
Orleans princes from France is now sta ted to
be the fact that they were pursuing the policy
ofbecoming united by marriage with nearly all
the reigning families of Europe The Count
de Paris was particular offender in this re-
spect and has been rapidly strengthening
himself in this manner. A late report is that
his daughter, the Princess Helena, is to mar
ry the heir apparent TO the throne Of Italy.
On the occasion Of the marriage of the Prin-
cess Amelia to the crown prince OF Portugal,
few weeks since, the Count de Paris held a
quasi-royal reception and the French govern
