An English scientist has made some
interesting experiments as to the effect
of nicotine upon the lungs and heart
He has arrived at the conclusion that
man of easy-going nature can smoke
a great deal without much injury to
himself, while q nervous man will dam
age his health seriously by smoking
much. A man who takes plenty of ex-
ercise in the open air may smoke with
impunity, while he who sits much at
a desk must be aware of the fatal fas-
cinations of MY Lady Nicotine"

ALLEGED TICK EFT FORGERY.
Richmond Railway Said to Have
Been yictimized.

A rumor has been ahoat for several
days to the effect that the Richmond
Railway and Electric Company had
been the victim of a skilful forgery by
the means Of which thousands OF
spurious tickets were being ana had
been used on its various lines OF street.
railway. Nothing tangible could De
learned about the matter yesterday
however, and 1t is doubtful II anything
definite will be given 10 the pubic Tor
several days yet. Some months ago the
company put on sale tickets over its
lines 0he Mayo sbridge line excepteO
at six for % cents or twenty-five for 81.
The tickets were printed in pink letters,
upon ordinary white cardboard, and they
are easy to initiate. The alleged
counterfeits, however. are so much
like tho genuine tickets that. II Is SAID,
it requires an expert TO tell the for
mer from the latter.
1t is reported that anywhere from a
few thousand up to 5000 have been
used on the cOmpany's lines here al
though the local officers of the company
declare that they know nothing OF the
alleged forgery or of the existence Of
such tickets. They admit however, that
an investigation of the matter Of this
sort would be conducted from the New
York Offices of the company. and not
from the Richmond offices. So far as
could be learned by a Dispatch man,
who made careful inquiries last night,
no detectives have been at work on tnis
case, but the private secretary of Mr..
George +. Fisher general manager of
the company, whose offices are in New
York, has been down here conducting
an investigation Of some character the
nature of which is said to be unknown
to the Richmond officials. The gentle
man referred to has returned North.

Weather Report for the Week

The weekly crop bulletin. issued from
the Weather Bureau here for the week
ending yesterday, says.
The month closes with the drought still
on. A few showers during the week have
benefited pastures, turnips. and gardens
but they came too late TO benefit corn and
peanuts. 1t is reported that the corn crop
will be short.
In the Tidewater section peanuts are
beginning TO blast" and the crop is
small. Turnips and gardens have i'm
proved: fodder pulling is in progress;
sweet-potatoes and cotton are reported
good.
In Middle Virginia tobacco and corn are
being cut and there are some reports OF
tobacco burning. Pastures have improved
since the showers in the early part of
the week, but more rain is needed. Corn
has been injured by the drought, and the
crop will he short.
In the Great Valley section the corn
crop is short. Irish-potatoes are reported
bad Grapes are plentiful buckwheat
good; pastures have improved.

CHICAGO, ILL, August 3l.-A hand
some young woman, whose name Is UNI
known. killed herself this morning in
the Victoria Hotel, where she was
guest The suicide was evidently carried
out with the utmost elaboration, as the
young woman had evidently slept in the
bed during the night, taken bath in
the morning. made up the bed. aud then
swallowed morphine, and laid down 10
die
At 2:30 o'clock Monday afternoon she
entered the hotel, and informed the clerk
that she was on a long journey, and
wished to remain in Chicago for day
for the purpose of resting. She paid for
her room In advance, as she had no
baggage and registered as Miss Blanche
Wilson, OF New York. She requested
that II she failed TO rise early In the
morning. she be allowed TO sleep as she
was very tired. She was shown to her
room, and that was the last seen OF her
alive.
After repeated knockings had failed to
arouse her, the room was forced, and
she was found dead on the bed. She was
clad only in a night-robe. A vial which
had contained morphine was on the bed,
and upon chair was her clothing,

was no signature to the note. 1t was
penned in a small, feminine hand and
the formation of the letters indicated
that the hand which held the pen was
trembling.
The bed had evidently been made Up
hurriedly after being slept in, and the
woman had taken a bath and dressed
her hair carefully before taking he
poison. On her finger was plain. gold
