INDIGNANT CIGAR MAKERS.
Vice. President F. C. Constance and Others Vim
dictate Themselves.

Some little notice has been given the ac-
ton of the cigsr-makers of this city, who
recently signed an appeal to Congress,
that the duty be raised, or lowered
on Sumatra leaf, that that material might
be excluded altogether from the country,
or else let it in cheap enough for every
body to handle it. The idea OF taking such
action was ms ii gated by one Henry Themes,
of the trade. and at some remote
period q Democratic member of the
State Legislature. Themes assured his
fellow-workmen that the matter should
not be used as q political document. as it
conceived no opposition to the Mckinley
BILL which had affected every cigar-maker
aud grower OF the land most favorably.
The object of the action was 10 antagonize
certain spectators who had purchased
large quantities of the leaf immediately
before the Mckinley bill went into
force. Vice president f. Z. Constance, of
G.. NJ. /. u, No. IS. along with several other
members, stated yesterday that they had
been pisrepresented by Themes. and I'M

GETTING ON THE RIGHT SIDE.

Two Influential Democrats of West Indian
apoiis Who Will Vote for Harrison.
The Weot Indianapolis Democrats have
been coming into the Republican fold IN
focks here lately. One of the latest and
one who has always been an influential
man among the Democrats on the West
Side. is Patrick F. McNulty, who sn-
nounced himself last night as
henceforth Republican. Mr. Nc
Nulty ascrbes for his change of pol
itics some vital reasons. He states
that the officers OF the local Democracy
are of such a character that they have sys-
tematically dead-beaten and robbed him

vote for Harrison and REID.

American Headquarters Kstablished at
New York City.

CHICAGO, April 24-The annual conven-
ton of theosophical societies of the United
States opened today. 1t is important as it
is the first held since the death of Madame
Blavatsky and because of the resignation
of President Olcott, who was chosen presi-
dent for life. Before proceeding with the
businessof the morning session resolution
expressing deep gratitude to the departed
leader. Helen P. Blavatsky, was adopted.
In view of the fact that President Olcott,
after her death, divided the ashes of Nine
Biavatsky between Indian, European and
American sections, it was decided to in
dorse the permanent headquarters in New
York, where the American portion of the
ashes should be kept in . suitable re-
ceptacle.
1t was also resolved to give financial aid
to the Blavatsky memorial which is to
take the form of q publication looking to
the ultimate union between the Orient and
Occident. The general secretary of the
Europeon section. Mead, read several let
tiers from that section.
The resignation of President-Founder
oleott was acted upon by the adop-
ton of resolutions declaring the of
flee of president-founder forever

resolution, olcott will withdraw his resig-
nation. The repOrt of the wear IF NJ
Judge as secretary was exhaustive. He
had much to say of Madame Blavatsky's
life and death and Of the study OF the an
cient Hindus.
The afternoon and evening sessions were
devoted TO the reading and discussion of

made fast to the wall ceiling boards, which
constitute the back. 1t is five inches wide,
with two and one-halt-inch stats in front
and narrow board in front of that upon
which the fowls stand. The cover is an
inch board, which, when shut, leans
against the wall at so high a slant that
no fowl can stand upon it. A little
wooden handle at the middle, near the
top edge, is the only thing about it ex-
cept the plain smooth board. The ends
OF the cover rest upon the ends of the
box: Otherwise it does not touch the box
at all.
Now when the cover is opened toward
the front it slides back upon its rests and
becomes a hopper, with a space two and

livering the food into the back side of the
