mouth only or extraordinary occasions,
and he is even said TO have made a
speech in a Republican convention
while chewing the stub of an imported
Havana.
Stanford Newell says the american
Girl" is good enough for him, and always
lays down dollar for eight, which are
usually consumed in one day. When
smoking he constantly shifts his cigar
from the right corner to the center of
his mouth, and vice versa, with a regu-
larity that is surprising.
II. B. Willis, state oil inspector, says
money comes too easily for him to smoke
a common twO-fOr-a-Quarter cigar-S2 a
dozen are about his kind.
Joel p. HeatwOle smokes cigars pur-
chased by the Republican state central
committee at $50 per thousand. He
takes one of these dOmeStlcs between
his front teeth, moving his under jaw
backwards and forwards, which causes
the cigar to rise and fall like heavy
fishing pole in the hands of a small boy.
Mayor Smith is a smoker of the true
American type, being cOntented only
when his feet are elevated at an angle
on 45 deg.
Capt. Burger is yet to be seen without
a 10 cent domestic in the right side of
his mouth pointed directly towards the
horizon. He operates from both ends
of cigar, chewing and smoking at the
same time.
Capt. Osborn is not an eXtravagant
smoker, and is perfectly satisfied with
free and easy domestic.
ID. +. Reese never refuses anything
from 10 cent domestic to a fragrant
80 cent Havana, but prefers the Havana.
George r. Finch always smokes a
good imported cigar, and is very partial
to the light cOIOred brands.

Probate Judges Fees.

Judge Lochren yesterday heard the
arguments in the matter of issuing an
injunction TO compel the judge of pro-
bate to proceed with the probating of
the estate of 5. c. Hall, deceased. with
out first collecting the fee of $500, pre-
scribed by statute The attorney for
the administrator claimed that the law
requiring the payment of the
fee was unconstitutional, and cited
the decision of the district
court of Ramsey county in a similar
case where the court held that the law
could not be enforced as it was uncon-
stitutional. The judge of probate had
nothing to say in the matter except
that he was only Obeying the law when
he refused to allow the estate to be
prObated until the fee required by the
statute was paid. The matter was taken
under adyiSement.

Queen Victoria's Income.
London Letter.

London Letter
Rather more cheerful reading for her
males ty is furnished in recent publ
cation of figures showing the amount of
money at the queens disposal. The
best source of income from the public
purse appears to be eSSO,OOO, which she
gets annually from the consolidated
fund, but there are lots of other things,
such as little estate paying 100000
year: the million sterling to which the
fortune left by the late prince consOrt
now amounts; her own savings, which
are VIGOROUSLY enormous, and numer-
Gus large pieces of property le1t by loyal
subjects. The unfortunate fact, how
ever, is that these figures could proba-
bly, be used in the house of commons to
defeat a request which her majesty will
make for more money to keep the Prince
of Wales and his family comfortable.

FOrbids the BannS,

Philadelphia Times.
Bessie is the one little tot i'll an other
wise, grown-up family, and conse-
quently great pet and accustomed to
much attention. Her oldest sister,
Margaret, was about to be married, and
the family were all occupied in prepar-
lions for the wedding. Bessie came
one day bearing tenderly in her arms a
naked and fOrlorn-loOking rag doll and
asked her sister to dress it for her. Go
away, Bessie" said the mother; "Mar-
garet is busy. Besides, she is going to
be married and go away; so she cannot
dress any more dolls you you" The
evening of the marriage arrived and
Bessie was seated in the front pew at
church with her parents. Presently
the minister asked if any one in the
church had cause to forbid the marriage.
To the utter CONSERVATION of all the
people Bessie got up on the seat, raised
herself to the dignity of her full height,
and said distinctly: Me does. 'Tause
me wants Marget to tay at home and
dwess my dolly" Then she gravely
sat down and the ceremonies proceeded
amid the smiles of the bridal party and
guests. A day or two after the we'd
ding, Bessie received by express from
her new brother a most beautiful doll,
and with it came an elaborate wardrobe.

ing. You may eat in any
thing; or, as the cannibals
do, in nothing; but you must
dine in a Dress Suit, and it
is the distinction between
eating and dining that marks
the civilization of the world.
The Dress Suit is popu-
larry supposed to represent
SIS; except a hired suit,
which represents s. and a
necessarily high rate of in
tereSt.
When we say the Dress
Suit represents SIS, we refer
to the production with a
swell tailor's name on the
label; this suppositive value
is made up as follows $40
for the suit, and SIS for the
label.
This brand of labels comes
high, but you don't have to
have them ; if we paid such
a price for a label, we should
insist on its being sewed on
the lapel, or else wear our
coat inside out; either of
which methods would be apt
to make one unpleasantly
conspicuous, however ; and.
after all, why not buy the
suit without the label?
Just here is where we
come in; we can supply you
with the correct thing in
Dress Suits at one-third the
tailor's price.
This suit is made of the
best worsted material, the
coat silk-lined, and the fit is
guaranteed.

The Highest Colony in CaIiforni;

San Francisco Bulletin.
uLife at the Lick Observatory, Oyer4 900
feet above the ocean level, on a lofty
summit, with other mountain crests
only for neighbors, is an interesting
study. Here is, probably, the highest
colony in California. The astronomers
and necessary employees of the ObSerVa-
tory form a little world of their own,
and few of them care often to go outside
of it. The stage that comes once day
brings news from the world outside and
visitors curious to see the wonders of
the mountain. A contract with San
Jose expressman secures all needed
freight once a month, sometimes oft
ener. A butcher with supplies comes
up the twenty-eight miles of tOrtuOuS
mountain road once week. Cows and
chickens are adjuncts to the cOmmiSSary
department. Quail, rabbits and deer
are plentiful in surrounding canOns and
some of the sportsmen astronomers oc-
casIonally bring them down. The sum-
mer air is soft and so rarified as to eX-
hilarate and make great eXertiOn seem
slight. All the astronomers came from
cities, yet none complain or sigh for at
fractions beyond those revealed by the
marvellous telescopes.

Cut Out by American Girls.

London Truth.
America sent this year her usual con-
tingent TO Hamburg. The American
girl has almost entirely cut out the Eng
lish girl in public favor. She certainly
has more 10 say for herself, she dresses
better and she flirts better. She comes
to Europe with an ardent desire to re-
main there-the wife of an Englishman
with title. Even if she fails in this
she thoroughly enjoys herself, provided
she can manage to fiirt with royalty.
What always amuSes me with these
young ladies is that each one explains
that the others are not in society sat
home," utterly oblivious of the fact that
no one in Europe cares what they are
.'at home," provided they are pretty and
agreeable abroad.

English and American Women.

English women posses as rule
sweeter voices than their American sis
tiers. 1t is the talking voice that refer
to. The voice in which she makes
loves, talks of the weather, scOldS and
scatters scandal. There is rOundnesS

it the Englishwoman's chiefest charm.
This beautiful endowment is not the
property of any particular class. High
born maidens and lowly milkmaids.
city celebrities and suburban barmaids
alike charm your ear with their soft
tones. The sweetness of the voice
feminine is more noticeable in the south
of England than in the north. And
after this damaging confession it may
be as well for me to remark that the
American woman has prettier eyes, is
always a better converSationalist, is es-
sentially more alert mentally, has
smaller feet, and, to cut the catalogue
short, is more dangerous person alto

said Seventh street dealer recently,
''but although they are very particular
as to the brand, color and quality of the
tobacco, they smoke very few of them.
What do they buy them for? Why, to
chew. The number of this class of pa
irons is largest during the hot summer
months, and while | do not believe the
practice is at all conducive to good
health, it enables many of them to a
great extent to abstain from smoking.
The habit is acquired in a very singular
manner. Men who become addicted to
smoking to such an extent that they are
obliged to give itup. find that they can't
get along without cigar in their
mouth, so they become "dry smokers
at first and afterwards get to chewing
their cigars. The practice is quite eX-
tenSive for so singular one, but it pays
us. A man will chew more cigars than
he will smoke"

''While the smokers of st. Paul con-
sumo a great number of fine cigars,
they are as a class in no respect different
from the smokers throughout the world,
for they are crankS, and I'll venture
the assertion that of all articles con-
Sumed in the United States, the cigar,
its quality, and the class OF material
used in its manufacture is the least
understood by the consumers them
selves. By the majority of his custom

most pronounced type, with a con-
science as small and insignificant

the cigar was taken, that they may
ascertain to a certainty that the goods

Then there are others who are so
ignorant of cigars and tobacco that they
will not smoke at all unless they can get
a certain brand. They would not touch
the same cigar under another brand,
however.
"There is a great demand for light
