"From the time the beautiful and
brilliant Nine. Jumel had been young
girl and when Aaron Burr was only
captain in the American army she
had been more than once under the
spell of his strange fascination" writes
William Perrine in The Ladies' Home
Journal. Burr had introduced her to
the celebrated Margaret Moncrieff, had
desperately fiirted with her and had
implanted within her an admiration
which was still alive when he was
an aged social exile She had written
of him in earlier days that he appeared
to her to be the perfection of man
hood that his figure and form had
been fashioned in the mold of the
graces and that he was as familiar
with the drawing room as with the
camp.
"'In a word she said. he was a
combined model of Mars and Apollo.
His eye was of the deepest black and
sparkled with an incomprehensible
brilliancy when he smiled but if en-
ragged its power was absolutely ter
rife. Into whatever female society
he CHANGED by the fortunes of war or
the vicissitudes of private life to be
cast, he conquered all hearts without
an effort, and until he became deeply

Tight Gloves and Cold Water to BE

Nothing is so detrimental to the APP

keep the hands warm in winter If they
are to look well and to avoid putting
them in cold water. To wash them in
very warm water Immediately before go

water should be used, with little bran
or almond meal, and only the purest,
finest toilet soap should ever be employ

sale of poison for drugging fish was
prohibited and also that of inferior

Governor Roosevelt has removed Asa
Bird Gardiner from the Office of district
attorney of New York city after a long
hearing in the executive chamber at Al

the governor announced in formally stat

attitude toward the indictment against
Chief Devery. The governor appointed

+ ~ Fleets

The statement made in connection
with the announcement of the purchase
OF the Leyland line by J. Pierpont Nor
gan, that it was one of Great Brit
aims greatest shipping institutions,
came as surprise to many people.
The name was an unfamiliar one. The
Leyland line Is only one OF several
great fleets which have been mobilized
to meet the demands of commerce. The
fleet of the Leyland line, according to
Whitaker, ranks seventh in point OF
tonnage, that of the Hamburg-Ameri-
can line being first. The Hamburg
American line feet includes 2O2 yes
sells, with tonnage of 54l,0s3 tons.
OF these, however, a large number are
river steamers, tugs and lighters. The
steamships number ninety-five, with a
capacity of more than 100000 tons.
The second fleet in point of capacity
also flies the German flag. 1t is the
North German Lloyd line, with nine
ty-one ocean steamers having ton
mage OF about 100000. Three British
companies rank next-the British In
dia Steam Navigation company which
has more than 100 vessels and a capac
ity of nearly 100000 tons; the PENN
sular and Oriental, with fleet of
more than sixty vessels and capacity
of over 100000 tons, and the fleet of

the sixth place, although in point of
tonnage it does not greatly exceed the
Leyland feet, their respective capaci-
ties being given as 247,33S and 245,000
tens. A line flying the Italian flag
the NavagaZione Generate Italiana, is
placed next, with a tonnage of 233
and feet of more than 100 steamers.
The Union Castle, with 10000 less
tonnage, has fortyone steamers. The
next place in the list is accorded to a
flag that no one would expect to find
among the number, the Japanese. The

its bead Office at Toxic, has sixty-eight
steamers in its feet. Then follow the

writes a correspondent to see women
smoking cigarettes in the best restau

obtrusive about it, but they smoke
right along as matter of course; with
all the nonchalance of the men accom-
panying them. Not all of them are of

jority of them are women OF the
theater. They do not often produce
their cigarette cases before midnight.
But at the petit souper, when all hands
around the after-theater tabl S are
more or less mellowed and indisposed
to be critical of their neighbors, out
come the cigarette receptacles and
the ornate wax match boxes, and the
women who like that sort of thing get
to putting with all the apparent zest
in life. The women who tried this
smoking business in the better class
restaurants of New York few years
ago were summarily sat down upon
by the proprietors of the establish
ments. They stormed and ravei and
declared that women were permitted to
smoke clay pipe II they so elected in
the best eating houses of London,
Paris and Vienna: but the restaurant
teurs calmly invited them in that case,
to repair to Vienna or Paris or London
on the earliest available steamer. True
for great many years the frowsy
lot of women who move about in the
society called Bohemian" circles of
New York have been regaling them
selves with tobacco after their dinners
at the cheap tables d'hots; but it has
only been within the past two years
that the really high-grade restaurants
have tolerated such thing.

The gross tonnage of the seventeen
ships owned by the Atlantic Transport
company is s9.741. Six ships, includ-
ing two of l3,40l tons each, now build

to find that only three of the big trans

others being chartered vessels. 1t is
said to be waiting for the passage Of
the ship subsidy bill, when it will re-
place many OF these ships with Ameri-

Under Military JurisdictIon.

Denver, July 9.-Judge Mullins was
called upon yesterday to pass upon a
question of law defining the jurisdic-
ton of civil and military authority.
June Sd last ]. G. Ayres, civilian,
was killed near Fort Logan by Ser
geant Z. d. Wright of the Thirteenth
infantry Wright was in search of a
military prisoner who escaped from
the post, mistook Ayres for his man
and killed him.
Upon demand from the district at
tOrney's office Wright was promptly
turned over to the civil authorities by
the commandant of the post. His trial
came up in the west side court, and af-
ter an argument on a technical point of
law Wright vas discharged. Judge
Mullins sustained n motion for dismis-
sal upon the grounds that the civil au-
thorlties We're without jurisdiction and
that the case was one for the United
States Court. 1t is not likely that
Wright will be arrested by the United
States authorities, as 1T has already
been shown that the shooting was ac

Many Females Arc Now

An American woman with n cigar

has difficult time, in the first place to
cover up the guilt, not to say the
shame, which consciousness of her
braZenness produces within her; and.
in the second place. she has not the
grace in her way of handling the Gig
arctic that the women smokers Of
over the sea exhibit. AS matter of
fact most OF the women who smoke
cigarettes in the restaurants look and
act just as if they wanted to be ba-a!

make a dismal hash of it.
And. speaking of women and tobac-

out that men rather like to be handed
their cigars by young women with
roguish eyes and pretty teeth. The
dealers have ascertained, moreover
that they sell a better class of goods
