Byrnes to Come In Later.

Tim Byrnes came to town few days
ago and has made the rounds of the news
paper offices and the capitol, telling the
boys the news in state politics. Mr..
Byrnes talks well and is very popular per-
sonally. He says good many plea SAINT
words for Van SAINT, but has thus far
taken no active hand in the state fight,
and probably will not until after the state
convention. 1t is believed that he will, as
usual, go on the stump for the state com
mittee when the campaign is under way.

a CLEVER CLERK.

Once upon a time the famous
banking house of Hope Of Amster-
dam sent a young clerk to negotiate
a matter of business with the Bar
ings in London Treated with gem
erous hospitality, the clerk became
intimate with the family and made
an impression upon the daughter.
He asked permission of the father
to urge his suit, and after rebuking
him for his presumption Barring
told him that were he partner in
the Hope house he might listen to
him. The clerk, after succeeding
with his mission, returned to AM
sterdam and told what Barring had
held out to him. He then asked to
be made a partner on the strength
Of his prospects, and the Hopes
agreed. AS a partner the clerk re-
turned to England and eventually
married Miss Barring. He remained
in England, entered parliament and
became Lord Taunton. The clerks
name was Labouchere, the father Of

itor of Truth and an NJ. P.

A Colonial Room.

Color is one of the important
considerations in furnishing d colo
NAL room. The rich effect of the
mahogany furniture is much in
creased by creamy yellow tint Of
wall. If an oriental rug with mus
tard yellow tones predominating
covers the center of the floor, which
should, Of course, be stained a dark
brown, the result will be pleasingly
harmonious. Window curtains Of
yellow brocade silk should be in
colonial style, looped back with
cord and tassels and with lambre-
quins, says the Brooklyn Eagle II
will also be in keeping with colonial
ideas to have the straight backed
chairs upholstered with yellow silk.
Shelves containing some old blue
china and pieces of pewter or silver
will be set off well by the yellow
wall Pictures should be chosen
carefully, lest their too modern look
interfere With the harmony of the
room. Copies Of old masters in old
style frames are-safe subjects.

Brain Food Nonsense.

authorities. They have dispelled
the silly notion that one kind of
food is needed for brain, another for
muscles, and still another for bones.
A correct diet will not only nurish
particular part of the body, but it
will sustain every other part. Yet,
however good your food may be, its
nutriment is destroyed by indiges-

vent their coming by taking regular

For Porch Decoration.

A new idea in porch decoration is
to fill large stone pitcher with
wild flowers or gay garden bios
SONS, such as peonies and scarlet
geraniums. The pitcher is either OF
a Delft type or decorated with some
large floral design. One of the fem
mime members Of Brooklyn's artist
colony has painted number Of
pitchers for the summer cottage
porch. In addition to the Delft dec
orations, one design that is especial
ly attractive shows a spray of hops
encircling the pitcher. This hop
vine will harmonic effectively with
the scarlet geraniums with which it
is proposed to fill the pitcher.

Summer Coverings.

If the summer coverings for pol
ished tables are made at home, it
should be remembered that a close
fitting cover Of some soft fabric Of
the flannel variety should first be
fitted over the polished top and cor

outing flannel is suitable for the
purpose. This prevents the stiff
holland from scratching the sur
face, as might otherwise be the case.
The high finish of the piano top
needs similar protection.

Connecticut Valley Tobacco Market.

Very many of our growers have finish
ed stripping their tobacco. and all are
we'll pleased with the outcome of the
leaf. OF course there is an occasional
fat stem found, as some unripe plant
finds it's way upon the poles, and refuses
to cure down all of it's top leaves, or an
occasional leaf of pole sweat is found, as
is common every year. The early cut
suffered the worst, but the stories are
much exaggerated by the packers. They
have kicked lively, and should be avoid
ed in the future. There is always class
among the growers that can be BULLDOG
ed, and made to accept deduction of
from three to six cents pound. The
way to avoid this is to exact a fair sum
paid on the goods to be forfeited if the
bargain is ignored, and avoid signing
their cunningly devised contracts, which
only bind one party.
Packing and force sweating is going on
extensively, and goods of 1901 are being
sold on the market. Sutter Brothers
have a force of 125 men at their ware
house at New Milford, CT, and are rap
idly packing, as are Schoverling & Co.
At Hatfield packing is being done. John
Carl was to commence force sweating

its returns from the wrapper crop six
and seven months earlier than ever be-

in the meantime before using them again
for packing purposes ought, in connec-
tion with the larger sales, 60 far towards
reconciling the trade for the smaller
profits and give the record of 1901 a red
letter mark instead And the binder
market Jared even better. For in this
instance remunerativeness was added to
the quickness of sales. Rarely, if ever
before, did Connecticut seconds CON-
mand such prices as they did this year,
and an offer was equivalent to a sale.
Likewise had the Wisconsin and Onon-
daga all their own way. Whatever the
cause, it is a fact to be placed to the
credit of 1901 that the binder stock was
in strenuous demand and commanded
higher and more remunerative prices
than for many year. Nor was the filler
market neglected quantity. Although
large transactions were scarce, sales were
so steady and continuous that the mar
ket is we'll nigh closed out of old filler
stock The domestic leaf market has
therefore all reason to remember CRATE
fully the year that is so soon to leave us.
The Sumatra market had an even and
smooth run during the year.
The Havana market had during the
year it's ups and downs, or, rather, it's
downs and ups. For the "downs" in the
first part OF the year were superseded by

WISCONSIN, TOBACCO MARKET.
EpGERToN. Wis. JAN. 3, 1901.

While the situation regarding the new
crop is generally quiet in the southern
growing sections of the state, the pleas
ant weather and fine roads has given a
blin g again in a moderate way. Their
aim seems likely to get better acquainted
with the merits of the tobacco, but sales
are being made by the dealers riding,
showing growing disposition among To-
cal packers at least to take hold of the
crop.
The following sales have come to no.

Chas. Bruhn, Ga at 7&2c.

The conditions regarding old leaf re-
main unchanged. There are plenty of
inquiries after samples but trade is gen
orally confined to small lots to man ufac-
turers. 1900 leaf is held at strong fig
ures. T. S. Baines sold an SECS lot dur
ing the week.
The growers are progressing with their
stripping where the crop has been re-
moved from the sheds and in some in
stances this work is completed.
The shipments out of storage reach
1356cs, 27 car loads, from this market to
all points for the week past. Since last
report 525cs of cigar leaf were exported
from New York.
