I have no earthly objection to women
only, if they do smoke, they

Just fool a little with a cigarette.
Now, that scarcely amounts to smoking
at all. If they really mean it, let
them take to cigars and pipes. l know
a dignifed old lady, a Polish countess
what is her name!-oh, we'll, Thing
amojisky-it ends in 'isky," anyhow
and I respect that woman. She gem
timely smokes, and no mistake about
it. There is no playing there. She
looks on it as a sacred duty. She has
a long pipe with wooden stem and
the bark on, and a fine big bowl-a
regular mans pipe. When she was
visiting me, she just loaded up and
smoked, and loaded up and smoked,
and loaded up and smoked again. She
meant business. know another lady
who has a long Turkish pipe, and she,
too, means business. ii women are
ever to be genuine smokers, that is the
way they must go to work.-Mark

THE CUP RACES.
The Columbia and Shamrock to Meet
Tomorrow Morning.

Tomorrow Morning.
NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-The Columbia
and the Shamrock will meet in their
first race for the Americas cup at
about II o'clock Tuesday morning. Ex-
perts expect that the sight will prove a
contest as earnest and interesting us
any that have preceded 1t for the In
ternational yachting trophy, where skill
and Judgment viii play rs important n
part as the speed OF tho respective
boats,
Sir Thomas Upton has used the best
means at hand to produce a boat
worthy in every way to be challenger
for the cup. He and his friends, to-
gether with viii Fife. jr., the designer
Of the Shamrock, seem full Of cont
dence regarding her ability to win the
old trophy now in possession OF Its
holders for more than fOrty-elght
years. The secrecy observed In the
construction OF the yacht Is worldwide
history. Following the example OF the
Americans In building the ViRllant and
Defender, successful defenders OF the
cup, Mr.. Fife built a metal boat, which
is extraordinarily light, md gave Il
mRrvelously big rig TO her. He has tn-
ken the additional precautlou of putting
her In the hands OF the very hest oll-
GERS and crew that could be found in
Great Britain. That his boat has much
speed has repeatedly been shown In her
trials in the last few weeks.
The vessels viii meet on Tuesday
over course OF thirty miles, starting
from Sandy Hook iightship to wind
ward or leewnrd. according to the d.
rectlOn OF the breeze. The second race
will be triangular, ten miles 10 leg
and win be sailed on Thursday.

Uneaslness Oh the FrontieF.

MAFEKING. Oct. 1.-Great uneasi-
ness exists here over the massIng Of the
Roers near the frontier. At a largely
attended meeting to-day Mr.. Klosle, a
former mayor and other speakers, COM
plained that the imperial authorities
were neglectIng to provide proper pro-
lection for the Inhabitants, as this bor-
der Is much more exposed than the Ma
tai border. The Boers, backed with NJ
tIlIery, could invade the town In q few
hours. Many women, children and ref
uEees, the speakers pointed out, were
thus placed In q positlon OF great dan
ger.
The meeting unanimously adopted a
resolution to send a telegram TO the
British high commission, Sir Alfred
Miner, praying further protection.
