The news comes from Siam that the
king has granted valuable concessions in
mines, railroads and banking to Ameri-
cans, having previously refused them to
Englishmen. The astute monarch feared
the English were plotting to seize his
kingdom. while, Of course, he had no such
fear as to this country. This is suggestive.

Hebrews In the south.

1t has been said that 4 sure sign Of the
prospective growth of a place is the
tlocking of Hebrews into it.
Judged by this test, the south has a
future. Everywhere in that section, in
the large as we'll as the small places,
the Jewish merchant or banker has a
sure footing.
At Savannah the Hebrews have the
great dry goods houses, own the finest
residences in the town and are the chief
supporters of musical and dramatic en-
tertainments. as well as foremost in pub
lie charities.
In certain degree this is the case in
Richmond, Va, and in the villages and

Tobacco Exports In 1889.

The exports Of leaf tobacco and cigar
cites from the United States during the
year 1889 were quite satisfactory as to
quantity. Although larger quantities Of
leaf have been exported in previous
years, yet there is material increase
over the year 1888.
The exports of leaf tobacco for 1899
amounted to 252, 5000 pounds, as COM
pared with 204, ,1S4,0 pounds in 1888,
an increase of 4s, 325, 900 pounds, yet the
value Of the 1888 exports is put at $3,-
800, 900 mere than tie exports Of 1889,
something improbable; this discrepancy
is undoubtedly due to the crude method
OF compiling these statistics. The ex-
ports Of cigarettes for the year 1889 were
a14, $4,000, as compared with 207 ore, 900
in 1883. indicating an increase of 67, ,623. :.
O00. This IS the largest amount exported
in one year. and evidences what rapid
strides are being madein the export busi-
ness by our cigarette manufacturers, as
their exports in 1899 aggregated about
12 per cent. Of their manufacture for
home consumption. Daily Virginian.

cliff dwellers are members of the Tahuar-

own. They came from Tukova, 200 miles
from chihuahua, and travelled the whole
distance on foot. beating their master,
who rode. One of these men is known to
have travelled 100 miles in twelve hours

y Powder That Should he Popular.

A London beautifier has invented a
new face powder. warranted not to rub
off. Powder puffs need no longer be
carried about in mysterious pockets. as
this powder remains just the same for
quite twelve hours. The hand or arm
that is FURNISHED with it leaves no mark
on Il black coat sleeve. This ought to be
great relief to the minds Of senti-
mental young couples. A face powder
that tells no tales is as great boon in its
way as a gunpowder that makes no noise.
