Enticing HOLSTERS TO Death.

In the neighborhood of the Bermudas
the sea is extremely transparent, SO that
the fishermen can readily see the horns
of Holsters protruding from their hiding
places in the rocks at considerable
depths. To entice the crustaceans from
these ~crannies they tie a lot of snails in
a ball and dangle them in front of the
cautious lobster. When he grabs the
ball they haul him up.-lnterview in

Points for the Suburban Resident,

1t is better to let the heels of your
shoes go unblackened than to miss a
train.
1t does not pay to invest in accident
insurance policies. The accident al
ways happens to some other train than
the one in which you are travelling.
Late to bed and early to rise will
shorten the road to your home in the
skies.
Always try to a at least one meal
each week with your family. 1t keeps
up the acquaintance and conduces to So
ciability Tribune.

From the Western Gina Tobacco Journal
The exports Of leaf tobacco
from the United States for the
year ending June 80, 1892, was
255, 423, O77 pounds, as against
249, 232 ,605 pounds for the fiscal
year 1s90-9l, showing a slight
increase for the fiscal year late
ly ended, yet the exports of late
years have not been as much as
for years previously. In the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1886,
the exports were 292, 767, $3.50
pounds, in 1887, $4,000, 1913
pounds, and in 1883, 1852, eS2 1921
pounds. While the exports Of
leaf show a slight increase for
the fiscal year lately passed,
cigarettes show a slight de-
crease, as but BOG, 545, 900 were
exported as against $40, 013, 900
in the previous year, yet the
total was very satisfactory and
contrasts remarkably with ci-
gars, only 3,0l7, 900 of which
we're exported in the past year,
against 3,S75,000 in the fiscal
year ended June 30, 1901,
The proportion of our total
crops of leaf tobacco exported
seems to be growing less each
year. Early in the eighties
nearly 60 per cent. of the crop
was exported, and now not As
per cent. of It'll shipped abroad,
notwithstanding the large in
crease in production.
The home consumption in the
the past ten years has increased
at least 1876, 100000 pounds,
while urexports havetallen off.
Few realize the steady growth
in home demand, and its signi-
ficance on our production. In
the year past the increased con-
sumption by home manufactur-
ers was above IA, 900, 900 pounds.
1t points to but one conclusion
more attention to
types used by the domestic
trade.

BARLOW MINISTRIES.

opened their season at the Lee
Avenue Academy, Brooklyn,
August 8, and at noon ON the
same day made their inaugural
parade. There had been much
promised, butt more than salts
fled great expectations. TWAS
a very finely equipped parade,
and left an impression that was
strongly felt at the box Office all
day. The evening performance
was greeted by an audience that
packed the Opera House to the
doors. Standing room was at a
premium, and hundreds were
turned away. The show in its
entirety was fresh and catchy,
each feature being loudly APP
plauded and encores being un-
usually frequent. The stage set
ting, curtains and costumes
were new and rich. The first
part disclosed the fun-makers
and vocalist IN the foreground
and the orchestra ON the raised
platform in the rear, arranged
in costumes of light green silk
plush, trimmed in lilace and
gold satin. The singers were in
blue plush, pearl and silver
satin, and the ten end men wore
red plush and gold. This bril-
liant picture was masked in
with draperies of old gold satin
with scarlet swags, edged with
silk tassels, fringed gracefully
and artistically festooned. The
decorations were very preten-
tious, and created considerable
comment during the evening,
as the colors were blended beau
tifully, and the contrast strik-
ing, novel and picturesque
The strong performance through
the first part was refreshingly
new and full Of spirit, as it al
lowed the comedians full scope,
while the vocalists sang several
ballads of elevated character
and more than ordinary merit.
This was followed by an olio
rich in variety and extraordi-
narily good. The entire enter
tainment was received with de-
monstrations OF pleasure.
The entertainment was brought,
to a close by a new, bright and
catchy burlesque written es-
pecially for this company, and
which there was displayed some
very costly and elaborate ward
robe. Manager Joseph A. L.
Dalson can certainly feel pround
