Miss Elizabeth Banks, the American

sums for the return of some of the letters
t0rtune-hunung noblemen had written
her; she sent them back without taking
any reward. Others were sent back

But the bulk of the letters remained in
her desk The responsibility of possessing
them preyed upon her mind SO heavily
that finally one night, she got up and

A well known American prestidigitator
was a passenger recently on one Of the big

England, says the New York Sun He is
a goOd-natured cOnjurer, and many times
In the smoking room he exhibited his skill

quenters of the smoking room was an
Enghshman, who seemed unable 10 get
enough of the cOnjurer's tricks. Almost
every time the American entered the room
the EngliShman demanded something
more, and usually the American complied
Inc conJurer took part in the ships con-
cert, and did a lot of surprising things
with cards. The Englishman was in
front seat and followed the performance
with absorbed interest. But the next
morning when the American walked into
the smoking room after breakfast the
Englshman repeated his old demands.
The conjurer picked up from one of the
little tables a pack of cards, which had
been used in the whist game of the even

man, and said
Pick out a card"
The Englishman ran over the pack and
made mental note of his selection.

The Englishman shufied the cards Sc
verely, cut and shuffled again. Then the
conjurer shuhled them. After that he
laid them out, one by one, in several lit

with rapt attention; The conjurer gath

to the Englishman again.

The Englishman did it, and then the
conjurer picked up the pack and said:
Now, do you remember what card it

"Oh, yes" answered the Englishman.
Il remember it."
Sure you haven't forgotten?"
"Of course not"
You can name the card?"

Picking out a Wheel.

Whats the hardest thing to learn about
riding a wheel?" asked the man who was
rapidly catching the fever of the man who
had been riding a week, says the Buffalo
Express.
The man who had tried it sighed as he
thought of his experience, and answered:
Picking out your wheel"
The questioner thought that reply re-
quired further explanation, so the dispen-
ser of wisdom told his story:
Before l had tried it l thought it would
be the easiest thing in the world to pick
out a wheel. I would just go to a repu-
table dealer plank down my money, and
that would be the end of 1t. 1 probably
would have done that if there had only
been one or two reputable dealers in town
but there are 500 of them, more or less,
and every one handles the very best wheel
on the market. / found that out the first
thing.
so then, I thought 1 would inquire of
my friends who were already riding.

me the wheel he was riding was the best.
Then / undertook to find out what they
knew about the wheels they were not rid

wheel was a good one Don't touch it, ,
ne said. If you buy it, you'll have 1t in
the repair shop half of the time. Buy a

the more undecided ! grew
But how did you finally settle it?''
asked the man who was catching the
fever.
Il wrote the names of all the wheels

them up in hat and made a blind draw.

wexIer,s Tohnccn Order

1t looks very much as if Gen. Weyler
was anxious to do this country all the in
jury in his power. lie understands, OF
course, that the tobacco business of the
United States is largely dependent upon
Cuban tobacco, and no doubt he believes
that the great majority of the cigar MAX
ers are contributors to the fund that is
used in the purchase of arms and ammu-
milton for the Cuban insurgents. His or
der therefore, prohibiting the export of
tobacco to this country, or to any country
except Spain, after fifteen days from the
date of the order, is intended to be a blow
at our tobacco industries and an attack
upon the cigar makers
He knows very well that only a small
amount of tobacco can be got out of Cuba
within the next two weeks. chiefly because
it is not ready for shipment The tobacco
crop is said TO be gathered. but is not
packed, and it will take much more than
a month to pack it.
The Florida senators and representa-
tives are expected to have the time ex-
tended in which tobacco can be got out of
Cuba, and doubtless they will see to it
that all the administration can do will be
done, but unless the Spanish government
is willing to make concession it is diff
icult to see what can be done.
No doubt Gen. Weyler understands the
situation perfectly, and in limiting the ex-
porting period TO fifteen days he acted de-
liberately. But in taking a step so in
furious to the cigar manufacturing indus
tries Of this country he has not helped
the cause of Spain. He has only increas-
ed the feeling against her and made for
her additional enemies.
