Saarle's Testimony.

John G. Searie. in his affidavit re-
garding the signature of J. Jurgensen
to a will made by the latter, makes
some remarkable statements.
He says that h3 was a witness to the
signing of the viii and not to the viii
paper He further states that when he
signed his name TO the document he
did not lean up az sinst the wall. neither
did he stand on his head. Mrs. Jur-
geusen was afraid her husband would
not come back 10 Hawaii if he ever left.
and so the husband Jacob had made
his will p1ior to departure and had
called Scare TO witness it just before
taking the steamer.

WASHINGTON'S POLICY
HIS LETTER TO EARL OF BUCHAN on
OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS.
America, He Said. Should Have Moth
ing to Do With EurOpean
Squabbles or Intrigues.

Mr.. Frank Hume brought from England
recently copy Of a letter written by Pres
ident Washington to the Earl of Buchan,
under date of philadelphia, April % 1893 "
This letter, which is wholly in the hand
writing of the first President, touched
among other topics, on the principle that
should guide the United States in connec-
ton with foreign politics. He said to his
correspondent: 1T Is the sincere wish of
United America to have nothing to do with
the political irtrigues or the squabbles of
European nations; but, on the contrary, to
exchange commodities and live in peace and
amity with all the inhabitants of the earth
and this 1 am persuaded they will do, if
rightfully it can be done. Under
such a system, If We are allowed to pursue
It, the agricultural and mechanical arts, the
wealth and population of these states will
increase with that degree Of rapidity as
to battle all calculation and must surpass
any idea your lordship can hitherto have
entertained in the occasion. To evince
that our views whether realized or not) are
expanded, take the liberty of sending you
the plan Of a new city, situated about the
center of the union of these states, which
i5 designed for the permanent seat Of gov
eminent. And we are at this moment deep
ly engaged and far advanced in extending
the inland navigation Of the River Potomac
on which 1t stands, and the branches there
of, through a tract of as rich country for
hundreds of miles as any in the world"

PROTECTION AGAINST WEATHER.
Attention of Commissioners Called to
Conditions in BroOkland.

Attention Of Commissioners Called to
Conditions in BroOl<land.
Mr.. Charles Harbaugh, secretary of the
Brookland Citizens Association, several
days ago invited the attention of the Dis
trict Commissioners to the need Of some
sort Of protection to the travelling public
from inclement weather at the intersection
of 18th street and the tracks of the City
and Suburban railroad in Brookland In
the event of the railroad company being
favorably disposed, Mr.. Harbaugh sug-
gested as the best site for the proposed
shed the east side of 18th street and north
of the railroad line, inside the angle of the
temporary walk now being laid across Dant-
gren circle and the tracks.
Capt. Beach. the Engineer Commissioner,
who has immediate supervision of such
matters, has Informed his associates that,
in his opinion, the Commissioners have no
legal authority to permit the erection Of
buildings within tthe. lines Of the public
streets. In all cases where structures have
been so erected, stated Mr. Beach. without
authority in the past the greatest difficulty
is now experienced In causing their re-
moval. Under these circumstances he sug-
gested that Mr.. Harbaugh endeavor to Sc
cure portion of the adjacent ground
upon which to locate the proposed she'd
and this recommendation his associates
have approved. 49,

LADIES' GOODS.
BRANDS OF CIGARS.
New Ones Come and Go Like the
Flowers In the Spring.

What becomes of all of the different
brands of cigars which are placed upon
the market each year?" said a Washington
cigar dealer well, that's a question
which is easier put than answered.
II carry q large stock Of cigars and /
have on my shelves over fifty different
brands of cigars which sell wholesale for
$50 thousand and retail for five cents. l
have over twenty-five different brands of
ten-cent cigars and a dozen or SO different
brands of the higher grade cigars respec-
lively.
This is an appetizing array to the pro-
fessional smoker and affords an almost I'M
limited choice. The launching of new
brand of cigars upon the market Is an ex-
pensive undertaking and one which Is at
tended with more or less risk. 1t takes
lot of capital, because cigars, and new
brands of smoking tobacco, for that mat
ter, require lot Of persistent and costly
advertising The maker must compel his
new buyers to give up some other brand for
his, and in order to accomplish this he
must offer inducement to attract the
smoker.
by advertising he gets smoker to say,
I'll try this new brand OF the grade l
smoke If he likes it he may stick to it.
If not. he wanders off to an
other back to his old favorite.
Men will swear by a certain brand for six
months and then abandon 1t forever Tor an
other in a day. The dealer If he is inter-
ested in Introducing a new brand, will coax
a customer to try it. but the main reliance
is in advertising and in putting up good
grade of tobacco for the price. The main
tanning of the same grade year In and year
out, however. Is another matter, and l
have seen the demand for a popular brand
fall off right away soon as an inferior
tobacco is used. A smoker will say con-
corning 1t: That's no good now; give me
another brand
IA happy choice of name has a great
deal to do with the success of a cigar, and
it Is for this reason that makers use the
names of popular stage favorites, statesmen
and others. Sometimes new brand will
not take at all and the makers retire it, or
substitute another name. Others catch pop
uar fancy at once and enormous sales are
made from the start. Certain cigars sell
well in one city and not at all in another.
"Of the higher grade Havana cigars most
of the choice brands have been on the mar
ket for years. The same Is true of some
of the domestic ten-cent grades. 1t is the
nve-cent grades which are the shortest
lived and 1t Is these grades which are as
numerous as the flowers in the spring, some
Of which last about as long"
