Cigars for Roy atty.

Making cigars for princes and poten-
tates and crowned heads is a great bus
aness in Havana, and incidentally may
remark. from what weii-posted men have
told me, that they turn these royal con-
tracts to geed use in more than one
way: You see, it is a good advertising
feature: 1t gites the cigar makers a
prestige they Gannet get in any other
Eay. King Edward of England has his
eigars specially made, BY the way. that
seuinds me OF the fact that we fire.
quently find cigars in this country
which are labeled with the English cont
ef arms, just as the cigars are labeled
which are male especially for his ma
1esty, the King OF England. or course,
they are not the same cigar. 1t is
simply catch system. Ali the cigars
that are made for crowned heads by
Cuban manufacturers are bought by the
men they are made for. and scrupulous
care Is exercised in the matter The
only men who over get any of these ci-
gars get them on orders from royal per-
sonages. or they get them as guests OF
the royalty. A particular kind of to-
bacco is used In the manufacture of
these cigars. Take the case. for in
stance. of the Czar Of Russia. Cigars
that are made for him are branded with
the Russian coat OF arms, and he buys

of the season. Touchdowns followed one

ROBBERY NEAR ALEXANDRIA
Home Looted While Fright
ened Woman Looks On.

ALEXANDRIA, Va, Oct. A bold
and daring robbery was committed at
the residence of Mr.. Abe Studds, on
Seminary Hill. west of this city. about
3 O'Clock yesterday afternoon in the
presence of Mr. Studds' daughter. who
was alone in the house at the time. The
man, after securing what he desired,
made good his escape.
Miss Studds had occasion to enter a
room and there found a strange white
man. She was frightened and told the
man he could take anything in the
house il he would not molest her. A
few minutes afterward she made an out
cry and the robber ran away. She fol-
lowed him short distance and demand
ed to know what he wanted. He told
her he had taken nothing and that his
partner was in the house. This was a
ruse to get rid of her. The young lady,
upon reaching the house, ascertained
that no one was there. Miss Studds no
titled number of high scheei students
and they chased the robber but were un-
able to overtake him.
A search of the premises revealed the
fact that there we're stolen pair of
trousers, four rings, silver watch and
chain, a pair of gold-rimmed eyeglasses
and 80 cents in money.
The Alexandria Light Infantry, Com
pany G. Seventieth Virginia Regiment,
