Three women trippei more or less lightly
n-o a Tenth street car going up town yester4
day.
As they sank into their seats two of the
women struggled desperately TO open their
pocketbooks. and when neither succeeded in
getting their purse open, each grasped the
others arm and exclaimed;
Don't dear. Ill Ply"
The small woman between them says nothing,
and the cross-eyed conductor awaits further
developments before gong in to collect fares.
The comedy goes on.
I've got tie change right here, - says the
woman on The right

The small woman between the contestants
still says nothing, and at this iuncture the con
ducror approaches to discharge his more or less
dsagreeable duty.
Don't youidare 20 ray the fares" says the
woman on tne right cluJching at the woman on
the left
And don't you, responds the woman on the
left, grasping the woman on the right.
The woman between them still says nothing,
but as the conductor anchors before the trio,
pays the fares-and still says nothing, while the
woman on the right AMI the woman on the left
express much Indignation.
'Phat's alters the way wild thin wimmin, s.
says the conductor as he takes up his position
on the back platform.

The Conoueror CONQUERED.

-. ~. ross. III tftc , uNhCe Dtuuc.
In southern archipeagoes he'd fought the
bloody Cannbal:
He'd skinned and tanned the crockodile and
found him very tanabe
Not word Of fear he'd uttered, not a word and
not a syllable.
When lie killed the Bengal tiger and he found
him very killable.
He claimed his strength was very great, for
bears and lions suitable;
He used to boot the grizzly bear and found him
very bootable;
lie claimed in killing monstrous snakes, that he
was very capable,
No boa-constrictor could escape, for he was I'M
escapable
In fighting hippopotami, he said he was invinci.
BILE,
No jaguar could make him vince, because he
wasn't winceable.
He made the ramping elephant no longer recog-
niIable,
And pulyerized the roaring bull and found him
pulverzable.
Just then his wife came in and said, I'D think
il quite commendable,
IL you'd come aud tend the baby, and you'll
find him very tendable "
The way she took him by the ear will make
this poem readable;
She pulled MIN out and led him home, and found
him very leRdabe.

Conductor Sam Bones, was Que who had just
been saved from death. She was an old woman
aud was standing on the track used by the
local trains The engineer whistled but she
was somewhat deaf, and had her ears all
mu1ied up, and did not hear the whistle. The
engine came on and on and the old lady stayed
calmly on the track and with her back to the
oncoming locomotive. Two young men ran
from across the street and dragged the old wo-
man from the track ju in time to save her life.
Well, you would have thought that they had
done her an irreparable injury. She stormed
and raised row, and all the thanks the young
men got for risking .theIr lives was a torrent Of
abuse.
That reminds me- said Billy Norton, mod

Joaquin Valley. l happened TO be there at a

Has he Put HIS Foot in Itp


Gen. Harrison is in the way to realize the
force OF the lamentation Of Sir Boyle Roche
that he could not open his mouth without put
ting his foot in it. Ever since election he has
maintained a silence that could not be imme-
diately distinguished from craftsmanship. On
New Years night he broke the silence and ths
spell, for il is plain TO everybody that his allu
sion to the southern question is simply silly
Those who pretend TO ind any meaning what
sOever in It maintain that it denotes the orators
intention to aiopt a rigorous Southern policy, 10
which means neither more nor less than would
be meant by an announcement that he intends
10 adopt rigorous New England policy

Mrs Wards story "Robsrt Elsmere" as q
subject for discussion appears 10 have
largely taken The place of the prohibition
issue in New York, When the ministers of
New York city had quit talking about it the
ministers of otner cities of the state an of
the rural districts began making it the
subject of their disc urs2s. Such a story
takes a much firmer hold OF the people in
the country than in the city, because there
are not so many other things to drive it out
of their minds.
II seems that there are several ministers
in New York who think they have d
much such an experience as Robert Else
mere and they have excited interest in
themselves by relating it. Ohe OF them,
Rev. s. r. Calthrop, D. D., Of Syracuse, a
Unitarian, has made a stir in that city. He
was minister Of the Church o, England,
but. like Robert Elsmere,n he couldn't see
his way clear. ami at last he found himself
in the Unitarian church. He is reaorted us
being worry able man, aad he and the
Episcopal bishop Of Central New York are
engaged in a public discussion OF Mrs.
Wards story. The fact that the bisho p is
a convert from Unitarian!sm adds interes.
to the discussion. OF course the public is
considerably excited, not only because the
subject of the discussion is disturbing one,
but also because both debaters are learned
and eloquent men.
In the opinion Of some of the New York
clergymen, Robert Elsmere" is the "most
vexatious thing the church has encountered
in century," One of them is rep rted as
saying that the "blasphemies of Robert
Ingersoll pale before the sophistries of
Robert Elsnere'n
Mrs. Wards story will have its day. In
a lit lie while it will be forgotten. Tho peo-
pie vino may have their faith in religion

Tobacco culture in Florida.

The Hartford Times thinks that tobacco
growing will become in "A few years very
important industry in Florida. The Times
is quite right. The fact is that the culture
Of tobacco is already carried on quite ex.
tensively in that state. The lands are well
adapted TO it, as was shown prior to the
war, and since the industry was resumed
some years age many people have en-
barked in it. Key West is largely a cigar
manufacturing town, and uses the Florida
product in its factories.
Several varieties Of tobacco are grown.
Years ago one known as the Spanish was
chiefly the Connecticut. tho. Havana, the

Havana bears q small leaf. but it possesses
several superior advantages. IL commands
a higher price than the other varieties.
more plants may be grown to the acre, two
or three crops may be grown on the same

The cost OF tobacco growing is compare.

considerable. Under the combination sys-
