Cigars.

Have YOU ever considered how seri

end of :, cigar becomes in the course of
twenty-five or thirty years? According
to II smokers own estimate it burns AS
follows. His cigars cost him $l2.50 per
month, or $3.50. Il year. In twcNty-onc
years that would amount to So, 150 be-
sides all interest. The money is worth
ut least 10 per cent At that rate il.
would double once in about seven years
SO that the whole sum would amount
to more than $4,000, which would buy
fine house and lot in any city or Il
big farm in the country. How many
comfortable homes have been consun,.
ed in the fire of the delusive, impover:
ishing cigar Are there any young men
of our community who are consignine
their sumptous homes to this member
and booming themselves and their life
companion to meaner ones through the
selfgratifying cigar? If so, is it moi
we'll to consider the matter of saving
that $4,000: Why wouldn't cigar

would be sure to increase the capital OF
the young man who smokes. Such Il
bank account would bear II double rate

ter them, are those who will take hon
ored places in society, by virtue Of the
true worth of character, and they must

BIG TARIFFITES.
Managers ofthe Protective League
Rejoice


NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-A special meet
ing of the board of managers and the
regular meeting OF the executive COM
mittee of the American Protective Tar
if league was held this afternoon at the
rooms of the leagne. Among those
present were President Cornelius n.
Bliss, Theodore Justice, of Philadelphia;
P. c. Cheney, of New Hampshire; d.
i. Einstein, William Strange, T. M.
Ives. E. A. Hartshorn, T. s. Witherbee,
Hugh NJ. Carlpy and w. F. Waterman,
of New York. Reports of the secretary
were approved as read, and the recent
appointment of state secretaries for
Indiana. Illinois. Colorado, Florida,
Louisiana, Tennessee and Arkansas
were approved. Letters of congratula-
ton from many prominent friends of
protection on the efficiency of the work
of the league were also read, including
one from Gov. Mckinley, of Ohio.
BY resolution the American Protective
Tariff league expressed its high appre-
citation of the efforts of friends of pro-
lection throughout the country, and
urged its continuation especially with q
view to the congressional campaign of
1894. There was no direct action re-
garding pending legislation In congress,
as the league confines its efforts to edu-
cationai work, but individually the
members present expressed unalterabe
opposition to changes in the tariff which
have been indicated by the present con-
gresS. The organization will continue
Its work az greSSiVely.

knights of Labor Organization
Has Suffered Severely.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 16.-The report
of the general executive board, Knights
of Labor, was given out for publication
this morning. 1t opens with a review
of the years work and justification of
the boards course, as follows: 1.-The
past year has been one of trial to organ
lied labor. When your board has been
appealed to. and asked for their advice
in cases of despair, or when re-
auctions of wages have been
proposed by employers, they have
felt it their duty to counsel
cautious and conservative action even
where in justice demand for increased
wages, or q resistance of proposed re-
duction, would have been proper and
right. The steady stream Of ilnmigra-
ton, which in spite of restrictive legis-
lation continues to flow to the shores of
this continent, makes it comparatively
easy for employers to fill the place
OF striking workmen. In addition,
labor has had this year to reckon with
the fact of financial panic and in in.
dustrial depression. The cause of the
panic is question that IL would he un-
profitable to here discuss. Whsther It
was occasioned by the operation of the
so-called Sherman act, as some assert,
by the uncertainty regarding tariff leg

it was part Of a deliberately planned
conspiracy. having for its objrm The
doubling of the value of Axe ..l;.id's

of the worlds money, which would he

monetization of silver, as All increasing

THEY HAVE A CLUE.
Police on the Trail of the Men
Who Held Up Drake.


CHICAGO, Nov. Lett was announced
today that the police had obtained a
slight clew to the identity of the two
men who yesterday robbed Treasurer
j. A. Drake, of the Indiana, Illinois &
Iowa railroad. of over $4,000. A news
boy was found who said that in making
his rounds he saw two men hurriedly
emerge from the Rookery building,
where the robbery took place, about the
time Of the assault. From the descrip-
ions given by the boy the police pro-
feSs to think they would be able to ap-
prehend the robbers. Mr.. Drake. the
victim of the assault, was able to be at
his Office today. A cut over the eye and
a large bump on his head were the only
wounds he received. Drake was appar-
emily extremely nervous as a result of
the affair and refused to be interviewed.
In Investigating the alleged theft the
police has turned its attention to look
ing up the record of the young man who
says he was robbed. 1t is said that
Drake has lost heavily en- the races
lately, and is eXtravagant IN his habits.
The general manager of the ''Three rs"
road, L. Z. Shouts, who is a brother-ln-
law OF the assaulted treasurer, said to-
day: 1.-The idea of attaching any suspi-
cion to Mr.. Drake is absurd. He has
100000 stock in this company, and
many other interests that he could have
disposed of if he was short of money.
Then, too, his father is worth SS.SO0.OOO
at least, and would let him have money
II he wanted it."
Have you heard anything about his
losing heavily Oh the race track and at
cards?" Mr.. Shouts was asked.
81 heard that he dropped $4,000 on Yo
any such story, and never knew that he
meddled with cards. l cannot believe
but that he was robbed as he says"
Mr.. Shouts declared that he thought
great deal of Mr.. Drake, and their rela-
lions were most friendly.

IN HONOR OF MIR. THAYER.
Dinner Given by MIR. and Mrs.
Dorillus Morrison.

DOtIiluS HIOrEISOns
On Wednesday evening Mr.. and Mrs.
Dorillus Morrison gave dinner to Hon.
Samuel R. Thayer, eX-minister of the
United States to the Netherlands, at
their elegant mansion. Mr.. Thayer
has represented the United States at
this most interesting country during the
Harrison administration, and his fellow
citizens desired to do him honor for his
fidelity and able service. AS every
thing that is undertaken by Mr.. and
and Mrs. Morrison i'll a social way, the
dinner was great success. Their
home was adorned with wealth of
chrysanthempms of all colors and
growthS. The company was small
and select. consisting of Mr.. and Mrs
Morrison. the hosts. Minister Thayer,
Mrs. Eugene Wilson, Prof. and Mrs.
McLane. Mr.. and Mrs. William Has
kell, Miss Gale, Bishop Ireland. Judge
and Mrs. Flandrau, Miss Katie Gordon
and Clinton Morrison. The menu was
choice.
Much discussion of the many events
of historical interest connected with
the Netherlands was INDUCED in by the
gentlemen over the claret and cigars,
which developed the fact that the Meth
erlauds was the first country that recog-
nized the independence of America
after our struggle with England, in
commemoration of which event series
of medals was struck by that govern
ment, which Minister Thayer, with the
consent of the authorities, had repro
duced and furnished to the Minnesota
Historical society and many of his
friends.
On the whole, the affair was q pleas

CRANK COLLINS CAUGHT.
One Man With "Wheels" Who
VIII Be Looked After.

INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. 16.- Recently
Gov. Matthews has received numerous
letters from White county man who
signed himself Hiram Collins, and con-
veyed by his threats that he was a
crank of a bad variety. A few days ago
letter reached the governor from COL
Inns, which was full of vile language, in
which he (ColIins) asked for relief. He
stated that he was not a Booth or
Guiteau, but that he would raise help
ifSomething was not done in his behalf.
The governor then decided to head Col
Inns off, and began an Investigation. 1t
was learned that Collins was crank of
a dangerous disposition, who had also
been writing letters of like character
to President Cleveland. He had en-
deavored to buy pistol at Shalmy's, but
the merchant refused to sell him one
1t was feared that the idea to call on the
governor in person might creep into his
head. Proceedings were instituted by
the authorities of White county, and the
governor was notified today that Collins
has been taken into custody at Logans-
port.

BANK OF ENGLAND TROUBLE
Loss on Account of the Cashiers
Action Only 100000.


Action Only 100000.
LONDON. Nov. 1.-THE Daily Tele-
graph in Its financial article this morn
ing says: 1t is stated that the total loss
of the Bank of England through Chief
Cashier Mays advances on unsound Sc
curities will not exceed 100000. The
deficiency on the Murrietta liquida-
ton has no connection with
the present disclosures. There
was large business in the bank stock
yesterday at prices ranging from 1925 to
S271a. The final quotation was 325@329
the same as the closing quotation OF the
previous day. A week ago the quota
ton ranged from $50 to 1872. The bank
is suffering from dullness in trade.
Much profit is still being derived from
the Barring liquidation. and there is no
reason to expect that there will be any
important reducti on in the next divi-
dend.
The Times. in its financial column
emphasizes yes terday's denials andsays
that the charac ter OF the rumOrS in re-
gard to the Bank of England are now
we'll understood. and that the bears
have undoubtedly been repurchasing.
1--WE still think, however, that the bank
would be we'll advised to break its Gus
tomary reticence and make known how
small is the basis of the fact Oh which
the rumors rest.
1T Is an exceptional case, and the
banks statement would not form an
awkward precedent"
The Standard In its financial article
says that the Bank of England held a
protracted meeting yesterday. 1t is re-
ported that there was a long discussion
resignation of two members of the
board should be accepted. Whatever
the intention of some of the directors
may have been, it is certain that no res
lgnations actually occurred, and. the
Standard says, it would be unseemly
and perniclous if any designations did
occur at this juncture.
