were common.
The strongest feature Of the railway

A HAPPY TOWN TO LIVE IN.
Tobacco and whisky TabOOed by Its
Inhabitants.

(frOm the Emporla Gazctte.)
Last week an Emporia woman sent a long
communication TO this office, abusing the
Emporia boys for smoking too much to-
baCcO. The communication was not printed.
The Emporia bOys are particularly good
boys, and they get enough abuse for III ngs
they don't do without adding the vice Of
smoking TO their catalogue Of crimes. As
a matter Of fact, there is not town in the
West where fewer boys smoke or chew to-
bacco than IN Emporia. But that is
natural. The men OF this town set the
boys an excellent example Run over the
list Of men who do the bulk Of the business
in this town, and you will not anI an in
veterate smoker in the lot Not a business
man on Commercial Street. rated above
s. 600. chews tobacco. Count over the
bankers OF this town and recall how many
Of them you've ever seen with cigars in
their mouths.
All Of which proves concIusively two
things: First. that tobacco isn't cOnsid-
cred by men who really amount to any
thing as a manly adjunct; second, that as
a business proposition, tobacco doesn't pay
II il did, these men who make everything
else pay would use it. The truth is that
in these days OF active competition. il is
the best brain that wins, and the man who
knocks out his brains with tobacco is
knocked out Of the contest for supremacy
in any field of activity. When a Young
man applies for job in this town, he is
practically renting his brains; the market [
is full OF brains, and no employer cares TO
hire damaged set when he can get a clean
set just as well. s- a'
Tobacco is like WHISKY; il is growing
into disfavor. There is not in Emporia
today a single topper N twenty-five years
the use of tobacco will be tabOoed as
whisky is; and what is more, white rib
boners and reformers and political agita-
tors won't be responsible for it, The re-
spOnsibility will be in the relentless com
petition of this age which casts into the
ash heap for failure every brain that is
impaired from any cause. This will be
cruel. But IL IS inevitable, and the boys
of today should prepare for it. In the day
when they shall do battle for success, the
man will coddle his brains and his body
as a sporting man coddles his horse.
This spirit is In the air now and the
Emporia boys feel Il, perhaps uncon-
sciously, but still surely and deeply. Ten
years ago many more smokers were on the
street than now; in twenty years there
will be fewer than now.
The evening times., 1900-04-18

Among the securities which have suf-
fered most in sympathy with the steel
group is Pacific Mail. The stock has been
weak for a long time but has received
support around 35, and has never
at any time gone more than fractionslly
below that price. II has been thought
possible. however that In any weak mar
ket there might be a tumble in the p7iCe.
The stock has now been to so, the lowest
price in two years or more. The probability
that the subsidy bill will not be
passed this session aad the almost GER
tainty that the dividend on the stock will
not be paid for the present at least has
made many former confident holders Of
the stock sell out during the past few
weeks, and now there is another big
