A Great Festival.

Twenty thousand persons attended the
first concert of the choral festival, at vi
emma. The entire audience joined in sing
ing Der Deutches Lieb" and die Wacht
am Rhein." At commers which followed
speeches were made by a number of prominent
persons In the course Of his remarks the
mayor emphasized the community of Austrian
and German interests.
The gardens Of the Fest Halle were on Sun
day visited by 900 persons. Music, chorus
singing and dancing was the order of the dav.
The order preserved by the vast multitude was
admirable, not more than seventy arrests for
any cause being made. Today special fetes in
honor of the emperors birthday will be held.
The Archduke Charles attended the concert
yesterday AZ the representative of the en-
peror, who telegraphed his thanks to the vocal
lists. The ministers were also present.

Throat Pouches Of Indian Thieves,

From the Argonaut
Recent investigations in Indian prisons have
revealed a curious physiological condition in
duced by thieves for the purpose Of secreting
valuables. They allow q heavy lead bullet to
slide down the throat and keep it in position
for half an hour at a time. In about a year a
pouch is formed, into which anything small
may be thrust, without interfering with speech
or breath. At present there are in Calcutta
Jail twenty prisoners with these throat pouches.

The Best Advertising.

The most efficient advertising in be-
half of Hoods Sarsaparilla Is that which
comes from the medicine itself. That
is, those who are cured by it, speak to
friends suffering similarly, who in turn
derive benefit and urge others to try
this successful medicine. Thus the cir
Gle ofits popularity is rapidly widen
ing from this source alone, and more
and more are becoming enthusiastic in
behalf of Hoods Sarsaparilla as it ac-
tually demonstrates its absolute merit.
All that is asked for Hoods Sarsaparil-
la is that it ,be given fair trial. II
you need a good blood purifier, or
building up medicine, try Hoods Sar-

BY HIS CIGAR.
Telling Mans Character by the Way
He Holds the Weed.

An observer who has devoted a great
deal OF time in watching those who
smoke cigars, gives the world the FOL
lowing result of his observations:
An even tempered, quiet man never
goes to an extreme In choosing his
cigar. A nervous man wants some-
thing strong and furious; a mild man
something that smokes and nothing
more. There is great deal In the waY
men handle their cigars,
II a man smokes his cigar only
enough to keep it lighted, and relishes
taking it from his mouth TO cast a look
at the blue curl of smoke in the air, set
MIN down as an easy going man. He
mas Keen perceptions and delicate sem
siollities, He will not create trouble,
put Is apt 70 see 1t out when it Is once
begun. Beware of the man who never
releases the grip of the cigar and is in
dif1erent whether 1t burns or not. He
is cool, calculating and exacting. He
Is Interchangeable physically, but lives
easily OF those who perform the labor.
The man that smokes a bit, rests bit
and fumbles the cigar more or less is
easily affected by circumstances. If
the cigar goes out frequently the man
has whole souled disposition, is an
easy going fellow with lively brain
and q glib tongue, and generally fine
fund of anecdotes. To hold half the
cigar and smoke indifferently is a lazy
mans habit. They are generally of
little force, and their character are not
or the highest strata. A nervous man
who fumbles his cigar great deal, is q
sort Of popinjay among men.
Holding the cigar constantly between
the teeth. chewing 1t occasionally, and
not caring If it is lighted at ali, are
characteristics of men who have the
tenacity of bull dogs. They never for
get anything or let go their holds. The
fop stands his cigar on end, and an ex-
perienced smoker points it straight
ahead or almost at right angles with
his course. Such has been my obser-
walton with regard to smokers.
