There is a good deal of tro?ble in
the village of Beverly, Pa. The COL
lored citizens of the town gave a
grand cake-walk the other day and
invited some of their white nelghbors
to come and enjoy the fun. Some
of these did not properly appreciate
the honor done them, but put cay
enne pepper on the stove. This soon
set everybody sneezing at such a
rate that the walk had to be called
off. The negroes are very indIg-
nant, and very justly. Not only
was their entertainment spoiled
but their hospitality was abused,
which is worse. The culprits were
arrested and fined Sc each, but il
was not half the punishment they
deserved.-Ex.

A dispatch from Paris to the st.
James Gazette says that the wine
growers in the south Of France are
so overstocked with their produce
that they offer wine at one penny .
quart, but fail TO obtain that price.
The splendid vintage has made wine
drug in the market. New casks
cost more than the wine to fill them.
The dispatch aids that 5000 wine
growers in the Montpelier district are
preparing a protest against mer-
chants supplying the wine shops OF
Paris with manufactured wines when
the genuine article is so cheap.

that the people will rcpudiate the

the Wilson bill. One was legislation

Recovery OF Confidence In The South.

1t is a gratifying fact that a bette
feeling now prevails over the entir,
Sonth in the regard to the exlstenc,
of "hard tines" In fact, 1t is dc
veloped by actual conditions, as the,
begin TO be better known, that har
times in the South has been sort OF
shlbboleth anyhow, theory rather
than a condition. The farmer is as
well off as he has been in years, he
is less involved in debt, and has pro.
duced more diversified and useful
crops. Perhaps the yicd of cotton
and the consequent possession OF
ready cash has been less, but his
barns are full of corn, his cattle are
fat and sleek, and he has plenty OF
grain and potatoes. In other fields
the outlook Is equally reassuring.
Nav factories are being opened
every day IN the South, new enter
prises are being set on foot, and the
general worIu UL Uustns.-
ful and confident. The hard times
have been caused by money troubles,
strictly speaking. There has been
no basic Trouble Of over or under
production of staples. Besides this,
the Republican press has been eager
to multiply all troubles and exagger-
ate all facts IN order to place the
Democratic party in bad light be-
fore the people. This has unques-
tionably had its effect, ond all Amer
lea has shown the extraordinary
spectacle of nation on the verge Of
a panic, when there was no actual
threat and NJ cause for distress.
Tle clouds which have lowered over
It's have been clouds Of opinion and
sentimental Encouragement, with
the exception of those actual dis
tresses brought about by the grad
uaIly accumulating consequences Of
the misrule Of the last thirty years.

Much rot has been written about
people buying government bonds for
patriotism alone. We do not be.
lieve that any such motive infiunces
or ever did influence the purchaser
of government bonds. Was it patri-
otism that forced the price of bonds
away down below par at time when
the government was bound to sell at
any price in order to get money to
G any on the war. Not much ii
wasn't. Patriotism causes thousands
of men to risk their lives, but very
few to risk their money.

The Cigarette Vice.

In a recent issue Of Harper's
Weekly is found very commenda.
ple article on the use Of the pernl-
cious and deadly cigarette among the
boys Of America. In it the writer
with laudible forcefulness says:
"The use Of cigarettes is not mere
ly the use Of tobacco, it is a vice by
Itself. In reformatories where the
cure OF the opium, alcohol and Gig
arctic habits is a business, cigarette
patients are not restricted from smok-
ing cigars or pipes, which are re-
garded as comparatively harmless.
The cigarette works special evil Of
its own, which tobacco In other
forms does not effect. This evil re-
suit may be due to drugs, OIL, to the
fact that the smoke Of the cigarette
is always Inhaled INTO the iapas,.
while cigar is not. AS TO that, let
the experts deci lie; about the fact
of the effect there is no doubt, and
no deavth Of evidence. No other
form Of tobacco eats into the will as
cigarettes do. Tie adult man can
carry off good deal of poison of one
kind or another without disaster, and
his duties being fixed and his will
formed he is usually able to make
his miner vices subservent to his
more important obligations. And
so it happens that it is matter Of
constant observation in club, and
wherever there are intelligent men
who allow themselves all the creature
indulgencies that they dare, that
these experienced persons are con-
SANITY swearing off cigarettes for
longer or shorter periods, and smok-
ing cigars instead. The cigarette
fetter begins to gall and they fling it
off. But young boys do not do that.
They have net discretion enough, for
one thing, and, for another, cigars
cost too much for them. and cannot
be smoked surreptitiousIy IN a spare
moment. 1t is the internal cheap
ness Of the cigarette and its adapta-
bility for concealment that tempt
this schoolboy's callow intelligence"
