not feed 1000, because the biggest hog

Pastor Cole Turning White.

The Rev. Thomas Cole, pastor of the
East Dallas Street NJ. e. church at
Houston, is in the city attending the
colored Sunday school convention.
The Rev. Mr.. Cole is the victim of a
very peculiar freak of nature, and
from being black man by birth Is
rapidly turning white. He says the
change began to first manifest itself
in 1883, when he was working for the
late DIR. McClanahan, of this city II
first appeared in q little white spot on
his wrist. Since then the white sur
face has begun to enlarge and spread
all over his body in spots of various
dimensions. from seven inches in
length to three and four inches in
width down to spots not larger than
the circumference of O large size
bird shot. He says his body is striped
like a zebra. His hands are nearer
white than black, and his face Is be-
ginning to turn, making him very
conspicuous object
He being naturally very black in
color, the contrast is all the more
striking. AS he is attracting q good
deal of public attention, and being
avoided as leper, he called at The
News Office last night to ask that the
statement be made that his physical
popularity is the result of freak OF
nature, and not caused by any disease.
He has always been perfectly healthy
and has never suffered the least phys
ical inconvenience in consequence OF
this peculiar freak that nature is play
ing upon him. Galveston News.

The Fashion I'm Dogs.

The fashion in dogs is as capricious
as that in bonnets. The pug Is said to
be rapidly going out. A lady now
looks moro TO the intelligence of her
dog than the flatness of his nose. The
dainty, delicate little woman is now
buying the Scotch and the fox terrier,

the right direction. If women must
pet dogs let them be dogs of best intel
ligence-dogs that can walk, dogs that
can sleep ON the floor, that can eat
plain food, such as the woman herself

more of q protection than a nuisance.

The Gentlemen OF America.

There are no class and caste and

put coats-of-arms on their carriage

nothing to prevent them. The coat

Robbing the Conductor.

Two men made good wages off street
car conductors in this town for some
weeks by simple contrivance. One
would approach O car from either side
and appear as total strangers. Both
would crowd into the center of the
rear platform, and the one farthest
from the collector would hand him a
half dollar or dollar to hand to the
conductor The latter, in the hurry
and crowd, would take little notice of
it, but, guided by the impression con-
veyed by his fingers, would return the
correct change. A minute afterward
the other man would look up meekly
and ask if that wasn't half dollar or
dollar, always double the true amount
that he had handed. The conductor
could not say positively, and would
appeal to the stranger who had acted
middleman. OF course. he would agree
with the demander, and another quar-
ter or half dollar, as the case might
be, would be handed him. A few
blocks farther both strangers" would
alight and work the next conductor.

THE CIGARS We SMOKE.
They Are Made OF Tobacco because Stain
Paper Is Too Dear to Use.

They Are Made of Tobacco because Stained
Paper Is Too Dear to Use.
There is quito a common belief that
the cheap cigars, of which there is an
immense sale in this city, are made
largely of paper stained to resemble
tobacco. Whatever foundation there
may have been for this allegation
some years ago IL is certain, says the
dealer, that there is nothing of tho
kind going on now.
The best proof Of this, they claim, Is
furnished by the fact that there is not
now any necessity for such a subter-
fuge, as the cheapest straw paper, the
only kind that could be used, cannot
be bought and put through the neces-
sary chemical process as cheaply as
natural leaf tobacco can be.
The cheap cigars are, Of course, made
of domestic tobacco, and the cheaper
the cigar the poorer the quality of to-
bacco. The odor of tho cheap cigar is
about the only objection to be made
against it. and this comes from tho inn
perfect development Of tho leaf. No
process Of curing will impart tho agree
able flavor of fine leaf to the inferior
leaf, because the essential oils from
which it gets its fragrance failing to
come with growth, cannot be satisfac-
torily supplied by artificial means.
1t Is true that various harmless prop.
critics may be used to impart q pleas
ing flavor, but to the man who knows
the taste Of a good cigar tho artince is
at once apparent, and to bis tasto is
nauseating. Besides, that kind Of fra
GRANGE is short lived. II lasts only as
long as tho natural moisture Of the
leaf, and dampening the cigar cannot
restore IL.
There is a considerable prejudice
among connoisseurs against all kinds
of domestic tobacco. But we are grow
ing an excellent quality Of leaf in
Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Ohio and
Connecticut. It is true that even the
best domestic TOBACCO contains at leas;
10 per cent. Of nicotine, while the
Cuban leaf has not moro than 8 pei
cent. 1t must be conceded also that
the Cuban tobaccos have q more deli
cate aroma than tho domestic, and
when ono becomes accustomed Il
smoking it then nothing else can sat
isfy his taste.
The acknowledged superiority OF tho
Cuban goods comes from the peculiar
soil of that country rather than from
tho climate. 1t Is particularly notice
able that the crops from yuelta Abajc
and Semi Vuelta, two districts lying
in the southwest Of the island, are par
ticularly flne and cannot be rivalet
anywhere
This portion OF Cuba Is subject tt
heavier freshets than any other, ant
all the refuse washed in these becomes
mingled with tho earth, and tends tc
improve the fertility of the ground.
Receding TO tho north, the quality
is not 80 good, but comparatively fine
product comes from the Mancaraugua
Remedies and Partidos plantations /,
that territory. The poorest leaf, which
is thick, strong and ugly, comes from
Tara, In the southeastern part OF tn,
