The first impression made by the smoke
Of tobacco is through the blood, said a
prominent physician to a reporter, and
inasmuch as the whole volume of blood
courses through the body in from three
to five seconds, the indications of its eff
feet are felt universally in the young
smoker. After a short time, as the blood
becomes charged with the poisons, the
organic nervous chain and the organs it
supplies are powerfully impressed. For
the young the habit of smoking causes
impairment of growth and physical pros
tration.
1 do not believe that it is possible that
any man can constantly smoke n foul
pipe without being constantly a martyr
to dyspepsia Cigars, if they are good,
produce dyspepsia very quickly, for in
smoking them nicotine is more rapidly
absorbed.
Smoking destroys appetite and en-
feebles digestion. Consumption does the
same, and n of the most common pre-
sages of consumption is j indigestion. For
these reasons 1 have made it a rule for
years past to insist that every consump-
tive patient should abandon the pipe and
cigar, and l have found a rigid obedience
to this rule worth many a formal pre-
scription.-New York Star.

Nasby.s First Book.

During the campaign of 1864 Mr.. D.
R Locke petroleum V. Nasby) was a
temporary resident of this city and
made an arrangement with The In
dianapolis Journal to publish his let
tiers, for which he paid The Journal 80
each, that being about the price of the
composition. The Journal loaned the
type to Messrs. Asher & Adams, a To-
cal publishing house of that day, and
they published the letters in a yellow
covered pamphlet for the author. At
that time Nasty" had not acquired a
national reputation, as might be in
ferred from his paying The Journal 50
each for publishing his letters. They
had already been printed in an Ohio
paper, but he wanted to give them a
wider circulation and more permanent
form, and adopted this method of do
ing it. The yellow covered pamphlet
issued in this city was his first attempt
at book making Jour
nal.

TO make a drama out OF a novel thai
is familiar to the prospective audience is
always a hazardous undertaking. At
the Broadway theater, last evening Mr..
Gunter submitted a dramatization of his
Mr.. Barnes Of Neto York to the test of a
public performance, and he encountered
exceptional success, for the stage version
was quite as peculiar and powerful as the
original work, The Corsican girl, bound
by an oath of vendetta to STAY the man
who killed her brother. and maddened by
her mistaken identification of her lover as
that person, proved an intensely dramatic
character in the action. The cool and
audacious Barnes, projected contrastingly
into the romantic Corsican scenes, was
not much less entertaining as enacted than
he had been when read"

A watch, even of very good quality,
can only give satisfaction if it is treated
according to its subtle construction. Its
possessor must prevent it from falling or
being knocked about. A jump from a
street car has more than once caused a
good timepiece in the jumpers pocket to
change its rate. A watch must be kept
clean and in q clean place. Dust and
small particles of the pocket lining
gather continuously in the pockets, and
even the best fitting case cannot protect
the movement from dirt finding its way
to the wheels and pivots Of the move
ment. Watch pockets should be turned
inside out and cleaned at regular inter
vals.-Jeweler's Weekly.

Engagement Tokens.

The London Theological journal states
that the fashion of giving bracelets as
engagement tokens has been introduced
in England. Makers of wedding rings
need not be alarmed at this news, how
ever, for the time honored custom of pre-
ferring the circlet for the engagement

tons of ages, is too deeply rooted to be

Its goin' TO be a hard winter, dog
gedly moaned a croacker leaning against
a building on the sunny side of the street
the other day. There was activity all
about the crank, but he would not see it
and reiterated his plaintive yawp.
OF course the shiftless fellow lied deep
in his throat, not maliciously. perhaps,
but because he was downright ignorant.
Hard winter? Why times will be better
than during any winter since 1876. A
half dozen things will contribute to a pros
porous season.
In the first place bids for the construc-
ton OF Fort Russell sewerage and water
systems were opened at Camp Cariin at
noon yesterday. l; had been EXPECTED
that Denver and Omaha contractors would
be in the field. but the competition was
confined to home men:

About 300 men will BE- employed the en-
tire wibter on the work. Preference will
be given to home labor and material and
the wages will be fair.
The total amount to be paid the con
tractors is s37. 1890. Mr.. Keefe said
last evening that OF this sum $50. 900
would be paid to laborers whose, head
quarters will be Cheyenne.

trade this winter will help a heap. All

meet with the Cheyenne system. The
pipe will ne nine inch from Eddy street
to the Boulevard, eight inch to the fort,
and six, four and three inch in the fort.
The trenches will be from six to twelve
feet in depth.
Fort Russell is to have a disunct water
system similar in general plan to the new
city system. but considerably different in
detail. The underground flow of Crow
creek will be captured but galleries will
not be built. There will be a dam and
reservoir.
Mr.. Keefe lis experienced in water
works building. and Mr.. McGarvey has
been one of the heaviest contractors in
the west for several years.
The home contractors are to be con-
graduated upon their success and this
demonstrates that Cheyenne is improving
in every way, for no ordinary firm can I'M
dertake such work.
HORSE MONEY.
Another thing that will add materially
to the prosperity of the town this winter
is the heavy sales of native horses made
by Cheyenne growers. Within the past
few weeks many thousands Of dollars have
been left here by southern buyers and in
vestors are still here. Even the cattle
market is fair and the sheep sales have
been advantageous

ladies awaiting TO take train. A tramp,

against every man, came in and amused
himself by directing insulting remarks I o
them. The operator was receiving an
order to hold the coming train, and did
not hear. AS he passed through the
waiting-room to put out the red flag the
ladies appealed to him. He ordered the
fellow out, andrecciving abuse in return
attempted to push him through the open
door whom the brute drew a concealed
dirk and stabbed him. The operator.
knowing 1t to be his death wound, made
no outcry, had no word of reproach for

fate, sent no last message to the loved
ones whom this coward's act had bereft.
