Charles Dana Gibson's Boyhood.

Mrs. Christine Terhune Herrick, in st.
Nicholas, describes tho clever work that
G. y. Gibson did as q boy in QUITTING fig
ures from paper. or his boyhood she
writes:
Until Dana was 10 years old no was
rather quiet, stay at home little fellow.
Ho was full of fun Of dry kind, and &C.
casionally there would come fash Of sar-
casm that showed his wits were not con-
fined to his finger tips. AS he grow older
and became interested in outdoor sports
and mado boyish friendships his paper
cuttings began to be neglected, and when
he was about II years of age he laid down
his shears. In their place he took up the
pencil.
This slight sketch must close at the very
outset of Mr.. Gibson's artistic career. He
was only Ii years old whom he entered the
Now York Art league rs pupil, and no Is
not yet 80. No ono can say how much of
his wonderful skill no owes to tho training
In eye and hand no unconsoiously gave
himself as boy, but it is easy to trace in
his scissors silhouettes tho power he pos
sesses in an ointment degree of giving n
picture in few clear, telling strokes.
Tho direct vision of his childhood he has
never lost.

THE STOCK IN TRADE.

The publisher OF o newspaper has one thing to

cal fact furnish great deal OF space rent free but
1t docs not follow that he ought to be expected
DO recognized as a contribution exactly as would
be the giving away OF sugar or flour by the
grocer. Strange to say, 1t is not looked upon In
that light at all, yet the existence OF newspaper
depends entirely upon the sale OF the paper and
the price charged for the use OF its advertising
columns. Compared to the number OF men ON.

THE GREAT TOBACCO WAR.
From The New York Herald.

The head of on, OF the largest s..
Louis manufactures OF plug tobacco
SAID so-day: About two years ago we
put on ths market brand of plug to-
bacco, and when VIC figured it out we
found we had lost just seven cents q
pound. Battle AK Plug Tobacco, am
told, sells for one cent per pound less
than our brand, which would make the
loss on Ii nine cents per pound. battle
Ak" however, Is superior TO the one we
pat out, and must coat more to manufec-
ture. Twenty million pounds Of Battle
AK plug tobacco were sold, on which 1
believe there must have been loss of
at least ten cents pound, so on this
item alone there seems to have been q
loss of S2,OOO,UO0.
From the above statement of large
plug tobacco manufacturer, who evil
IDENTIFY knows what he is talking about,
10 would seem to us thas the only one
who is benefsting by the Tobacco War
Is the man who chews BATTLE Ak" for
ne la certainly getting the full worth Of
his money every time he buys It.

THE SITUATION IN FRANCE.

The political situation in France Is
more critical than it has been for
twenty-five years, and coup d'etat ia
strongly believed TO be among the pos
sibilities. The ministry has been GEN.
sured twice by the senate, but has de-
oided to accepts the vote Of confidence
from the chamber of deputies az a suf-
ficient justification OF q refusal to re-.
sign.
The senate's opposision is due only to
o difference of opinion with NJ. Ricard,
minister OF Justice, as to the propriety
OF the appointr emit of Judge Poitevin
to investigate Southern railroad scan-
dals. Behind 1t all, however, Is the
question whether ministry having
the confidence of the cham Der of depu-
ties can with impunity disregard the
vote OF the senate. Neither side seems
disposed to yield, and the shadow of a
man on horseback looms up in the dis
lance.
France has been without revolution
for IN re than twenty years, and excit-
IN , evsnts there may be expected at any
timo Should the government declare
ita intention 10 govern without the sem
ate, General Sauasier, governor of Paris
and commander OF the French armies,
may become the lesding figure in some
very dramatic and startling events.
France is wonderful country.

THE State Democratic committee will
meet In Richmond TO morrow to name o
time and place for holding the State
convention. The claims Of this city for
the honor of being selected will, no
doubt. be properly brought before that
body. and II is hoped the committee
will be so favorably impressed that they
will decide to give Roanoke the conven-
ton. The Importance OF holding the
State convention in the Southwest this
year has already been alluded to. and
should the committee go decide, Roa-
noke, as the largest and most important
city in this section, will, no doubt, be
selected. It Is evident, however, from
the active competition OF other cities,
that work will be necessary to secure
the honor for Roanoke.
