RuMoRs Of the engagement Of Explorer
Henry NJ. Stanley to Miss Dorothy Tenant,
have been confirmed. The lady is well
known London artist, described as not by
any means young, but having strikingly
intellectual face. Iior reputation as an
artist seems TO depend chiefly upon her
skill as portrait painter Stanley is re-
ported TO have said: ~ have been looking
for a wife for twenty years without ever
having had time to find one" IL is re-
ported that Stanley will .be appointed by
King Leopold governor general of the
Congo free state lie will thereupon be-
come ruler under the king Of the Belgians,
of territory which covers an area Of ,058,
900 square miles,and contains a population,
white and black, of 27,000,000 souls. His
dominions may not, however, prove very
desirable.

Remarks on Tobacco.

Revenue Collector Fridy publishes n
1 letter that he has written to Chairman
Mckinley, in which he states that
thirty million pounds of tobacco are
grown In this Ninth distr let, of the
value Of three million dollars that we
have nineteen hundred cigar factories
and last year made five hundred million
fcigars. He declares that the importa-
stion OF wrapper tobacco has done great
Jury to this interest here, and has been
chief cause of the decline of our
III q values within the past ten years.
III t6Fridy is confident that the i'm
onaA of the proposed duty of
Dntckinley bill will cure the
II aud cause our tobacco to
aSxs.ring remunerative prices.
We wish thst Masdyaah be as confident
Of this. We are in favor oftrying W whether
two or three dollar duty will decrease
the demand for Sumatra and increase
that for Pennsylvania wrappers but
we doubt whether it will do the trick.
II II does not we will favor more vigorous
measures for securing the home
market for tobacco TO our own growers.

ever in excluding foreign cigar wrapper
tobacco and requiring our smokers, if
. they will smoke, to smoke the pro-
duct Of our own soil. And this
for several reasons First, it is
no hardship to them, since home
tobacco makes as good wrappers for
cigars as Sumatra. Second, the tobacco
consumer is not entitled to have any
consideration paid to his pocket
( by the laws. The more he paws
FOR his tobacco the less possibly will he
: use, and the better it will be for him.
Whisky and tobacco are elegant subjects
1 OF taxation and demand tie biggest tax
upon them that can be collected.
" Collector Fridy, we fear, if he is in
0fnce two years more, will find that the
Z proposed tax, if ii is put on, is not
enough. We suspect this because we
know that the tobacco consumer i. not
governed by reason and has little care
for cost. He will buy the most onery to.
bacco and be persuaded In some wsythat
II is the best, in fact the majority of the
tobacco users have no test ofqualty but
cost;and this may givethe costly Sumatra
lts innings under almost any taxation.
Everyone knows that the great majority
< o. men are without the senses that indi-
cate to them the quality of tobacco, and
must depend on the dealer, to give
shem what they pay for. And it is clear
mat this Is asking more from the moral
~ of the dealer than that of most of
I tsem can respond to. They argue that
\ y rian who does not know the differ

cigar that costs a dime bat that a dime

Cut or Ills Mistress, Nose.

Lee May, known as "Dogie," tho
keeper of II dance hall at Casper, wy,
quarreled with his mistress, Lou Polk,
who left him aud went to her mothers
house, In Douglass, Wy. May followed,
and under pretence of business induced
her to go horseback riding. Taking her
outside the city at the point of the pistol
he kept her for several days.
May and the captive wandered about the
mountains, living only on such raw game
as he shot with his revolver. The man
was warmly dressed, while the woman
was thinly clad, and suffered terribly from
cold and hunger.
May declared that he would not kill the
woman, but would spoil her beauty. After
a struggle he felled the woman and cut her
nose off close TO the face. lie iuteuded 10
cut out her eyes also, but a party of cow
men appeared and May He'd.
The woman reached Douglass and may
die. She was young and handsome. A
posse is securing the country for the man,
and he will be strung up 4 captured.

THE ease with which General Grosvenor,
of Ohio,adopted tho tactics ofSpeaker Reed,
when filling the chair of the House during
Saturdays turbulent debate, is proof
enough that the qualities of the speaker
are by no means so rare and wonderful as
admirers have declared them TO be.
Grosvenor showed himself quite as narrow
and arbitrary as Speaker Reed, and it is
evident that the precedent set by that brow
beater will disturb the peace of tho House
for many day to come.

FATAL ACCIDENTS.
Killed by a Falling Stone.-4 Boy
Crushed.

George X. Taylor, an employee in
the stone yards at the Rio Grande
Western depot, was instantly killed
at about $50 last evening by the
falling on him Of a stone weighing
about six thousand pounds. His
neck was broken and the upper por-
ton Of his body badly crushed. An
inquest was held at the Office Of Jos.
William Taylor last evening. The
evidence was TO the effect that the
men in the yards were engaged at
work, Mr.. Taylor being close to a
large pile OF stone. Suddenly the
rock slipped, and Taylor was caught:
assistance was called, and he was
released, but life was extinct. About
5000 pounds Of rock fell on HIM. The
verdict Of the jury WAS that death
was the result Of an accident.
On Tuesday last son Of Henry
and Matilda Smith, Of Francklyn.
was killed there by a railway train.
Ii is represented that the boys
death was due to his disregard OF
the warnings Of the railroad en-
ployes- The body was much cut up.

Women Who Preserved Their Beauty.

All the noted beauties of an age
have striven hard 10 preserve their
lOveliness. Diana Of Poictiers was
as charming at 90 as many are at 30.
She took good care OF her health,
and devoted herself 10 the arts Of
the toilet and the methods which
assisted nature.
Margaret Of Anjou was also care
ful Of the preservation Of her per-
sOnal charms. Never amid the
shiftingand tumultuous scenes about
her did Mary Queen Of Scots neg
lect the details that lent the most
brilliant effects to her beauty. Many
believed that Niuon de PEnclos had
discovered the secret OF perpetual
youth, so well did she preserve her
beauty Of contour and freshness Of
complexion to extreme old age
