CULLS AS ~LOG-ROLLERS,

How They Secured a Scant Meal
Composed of BarnacIes.
In the water off the site OF the old
Hatch mill at the railroad wharves,
says the Tacoma Herald, q bunch OF
logs has lain for a long time. The
other day a lot OF sea gulls alighted
on them. Among the flock was a
monster gull who seemed to be the cap
tam, and who, assubseq uent events
revealed, possessed an intelligence
not commonly attributed to sea gulls.
lie walked alone to particular log,
stood over on one side of it close to
the water. and then uttered peculiar
cries. The other sulls followed him,
and all stood over on one side OF the
log. The submerged side OF the log
was thick with ~barnacles. Under the
combined weight of the guIls the log
rolled to n side. Then followingthe
lead OF the big white captain, the
guIls ran from sideto side ofthe log as
1t rolled. Before long as they had the
log rolling to the apparently desired
pitch. The barnacles showed above
the water, and the gulls would reach
over and pick them as they came
above the surface, all the time keeping
the log rolling. 1t was a pretty hun.
CRY flock of gulls to pick at barnacles,
but they wanted something to eat,
and evidently they knew how to get
it.

HOW TO KEEP CIGARS FRESH.
Some Simple Methods That Smok-
ers of Fine Tobacco Should

Some Simple Methods That Smok-
ers OF Fine Tobacco Should
Know.
"'There are many men who, though
inyeterate smokers, will not buy their
cigars by the box" said the proprj-
etor OF a Park row cigar store the
other day to a New York Mail and
Expressman.
"Why don't they? Well, | find the
reason offered the most frequently is
that the cigars become dry before the
box is emptied. Cigars will dry in a
| few days so much as to be unpleas-
ant TO the cultivated taste, II care Is
not taken to prevent them. The first
two rows will taste good, but the last
two are so different in taste that the
purchaser sometimes thinks he has
been cheated.
There are various ways to prevent
this. Cigar store keepers put a damp
sponge in the show case. But, OF
course, this is not practicable in cases
where but a single box is kept for
home consumption. But cigars can
be kept properly moist and pleasant
at home with but little care. One way,
and not a bad way, either, is to cut
aniapple in four parts, remove enough
cigars to make a hole big enough to
put one quarter in and then keep the
lid of the box closed, except when it
must be opened to get at the cigars.
The piece OF apple will dry gradually,
and the tobacco will absorb the moist
ure it throws off. Ore quarter OF an
apple will keep a single box OF cigars
moist till they are gone.
But this method is likely to give a
peculiar flavor to the c~lgars-not an
unpleasant flavor, but foreign enough
to man the enjoyment OF delicate to-
Dacco.
"a simple way is to put a box OF
cigars away in some closet. II You
have one next to an air shaft it will
do. Keep the box there, removing
the cigars as you want them. They
will not become dry, but remain fair
ly mois: so long as they last.
But n way better than either OF
these is to put the box in the refriger-
ator? Yes. There's no danger OF
their freezing. You needn't put them
on the ice, but in the lower part OF the
refrigerator. There will be Just enough
dampness to keepthem moist and not
enough to make them wet. Ii you
keep the v OF the cigar box closed
no faint from meat or vegetables or
anything else that may be in there
will be found in the cigars. Try it,
and if after following my directions
you find it unsuccessful, tell me so and
III make you a pre- ent OF a boz OF
Manuel Garcias."

We are not In the situation that we
were in $780, in 1890 the campaign
prophet had the floor; in 1892 the cam
paign prophet is f1oored. He came
around and said everything was going
up in price, because of the new tariff
law; his prophecy has not been fulfilled.
He was then talking about a tariff law
that was then four weeks old,-too
,, young to speak for itself. 1t is now %
months old and doing its own talking.
II has indicated itself before the Ameri-
can people. Prices have not gone up, but
in many instances prices have gone
down everything has been reduced in
price except labor, and that has been
maintained under this beneficent policy
of protection. They have got this year
to deal with facts and not with theories !;
they have got to deal with facts which
every man knows. Why. they fooled
every one. They carried the house by a
large majority. They did it by trick
cry and fraud; they did it by deception;
and what were they going to do when
they got into Congress? They were
going to tear up the new tariff law root
and branch. Well, how have they got
on! They haven't put hole in one side
of it. There are 5000 items in that bill /;
they have attacked four of them. At the
rate of four every year it would take $50
years to destroy that tariff law.
