sThe Hound of the Baskervilles' i'm
the Philadelphia Press.

Sherlock Holmes greatest piece
of detective work is done in the new
story by DIR. A. Conan Doyle.
"The Hound of the Baskervilles. !"
Holmes himself says to Watson,
his co worker: "Here at last is a
foeman worthy of our STEEL" The
result is a story which, for thrill
ing interest, stands by itself.
From the first discovery of the
hounds trail, when the dried up
young doctor brings to Sherlock
Holmes the ancient manuscript, to
the final scene where the great de-
tective is brought face to face with
the monster of the moorlahd, there
is not sentence that does not
carry the reader breathlessly for
ward. 1t is a great novel, with a
great subject, by a master of the
craft. This thrilling story begins in
"The Philadelphia Press" Sunday,
July &. Be sure not to miss it.

The fiddle Class.

What is this middle class? Just as it is
impossible to point out the exact place
where the animal kingdom begins and the
vegetable kingdom ends, so it is impos-
sible to draw a line of demarkation be-
tween the classes, says the Unaeycuryent.
Capital is that part of wealth which is
owned by one man and operated by
another, yielding wages to the operator
and profits to the owner. A capitalist is
one who lives by the profits so obtained.
A proletarian is one who lives by the
wages so obtained. A man may own
means of production and help to operate
them. In that case, he draws his salary
and also makes profit off his helpers
He is both worker and capitalists mid
die class man. This class is disappearing.

Physician, and is acknowledged to be one

perimental medicine, but has stood the
test Of years, giving satisfaction in every
case, which its rapidly increasing sale
every season confirms. Two million bot
ties sold annually. Boschee's German

An exchange truthfully says that if
those who oppose municipal ownership of
public utilities by reason of the fear of po-
litcal corruption that would follow, will
read the records of corruption that are
common to the private ownership of such
utilities the fear will be dissipated. Num-
erous instances will be found where, to
secure desired public franchises by street
railways, bribery of public officials has
been practiced to degree that is appal-
ling, the bride givers and takers includ-
ing men of wealth and high social stand
ing. Public ownership has never furnish
ed an example of corruption even re-
motely approaching these, nor never will.
Public ownership is not breeder of po-
litical corruption, but it is one of the
most effective remedies imaginable for
that loathsome and dangerous disease.

dent to become law. The necessary
treaty with Colombia is already drafted
and the State Department has received
assurances from the French government
that it will do all i'll its power TO facilitate
the transfer of the canal from the French
company to the United States. Mr..
Roosevelt has himself expressed to recent
visitors the greatest confidence in regard
to the construction of the canal, and it is

pose him to believe that he will find no
flaw therein when he subjects it to more

Tobacco Damaged by Hail.

A severe thunder storm, accom- panied.
by hail, swept over the Connecticut val
ley Tuesday afternoon and did consider
able damage to tobacco The storm
seemed to reach from north of Spring
field to south of Hartford, and although
more severe in some sections than 9TH
ers, was quite general over this territory.
Ihe lightning was very severe and sew
eral buildings were struck and burned.
Ihe storm was accompanied by high
wind, which did much damage to corn
and other crops, besides blowing down
fences and trees. Hailstones varied from
the size of peas to - inch or more in di-
ameter. Early set tobacco was more Sc
rlously damaged and it will be practic-
ally useless for wrappers. Leaves on late
set pieces were not large enough to suf-
fer material damage and they may be ex-
pected to make fair crop. Tent cover
ed tobacco was uninjured.
The storm seemed to be worse in Feed
ing Hills, AgaWam and sothward on the
west side of the river. In Feeding Hills
1t was reported to be the worst since
1898, and many acres of tobacco were
practically ruined for wrapping pur-
poses the leaves not only being cut to
shreds, but the plants being beaten to
the ground. In some parts of Aagwam
but little injury was sustained. The
storm also reached Suffield and did more
or less damage there.
Southwick did not have very much
hail, but the southern part of Washing
ton suffered considerably, where the hail
fell thickly for 20 minutes. There was
considerable hail in Longmeadow and
more farther south, through Enfield, the
Windsors and Manchester. In South
Manchester, reports say the tobacco crop
is practically ruined. The storm has
come so early ia the season that many
pieces will have better chance to re-
cover than had it occurred two Or three
weeks later. Y. E. Homestead

The leaf market the past week was
like the weather of uneven and extreme
temperature. On some days trading was
brisk, on others at q standstill. The old
stock is being gradually cleared out,
though no sensational sales are recorded
Old time sales might occur in binder
stock if the prices were not high up. AS
the holders will not bulge in their prices
ten and twenty-five case lots are moving
in place of a hundred and five hundred
case lots. OF New England leaf the market
is almost bare, and last years crop,
which is due to make it's appearance in
few weeks, will find a clean slate. Su-
matra in the meantime fills the bill for
wrapper leaf, and as it gives general sat
isfaction as to color, quality and price,
even smaller manufacturers have re-
turned to its use. The Havana market
remains steady and fair, the new Rene
dios enjoying the ever-increasing favor
of N manufacturers.-J

On Monday j. Wallace Lee received
26 cases of 1901 recently purchased, ship
ping to Cleveland, Ohio. There is
nothing doing at the warehouses and alb
solute quietness prevails in the local
market, most of the local buyers being
out of town on their vacations or resting
at home. The transplanting of the new
crop is now nearly completed and the
fields already set are looking better. the
favorable weather of the past week hav-
ing made great improvement.
A petition is being circulated among
the farmers and tobacco dealers of On
ondaga county requesting Congressman
M. E. Driscoll to use his influence to Sc
cure the establishment of a Government
Experiment Station in this county for
the purpose of investigating and aiding
the growth of tobacco in this region.
The petition is meeting with much
favor and is securing many signers, for
beyond it are seen the possibilities of a
great development of tobacco growing in
Central New York, with corresponding
increase of revenue to the growers. Ev-
eryone concerned seems to consider that
he would benefit from the establishment
of such station. Gazette.

Business in local leaf circles has not
improved materially, although there
seems to have been little more demand
/ for serviceable Seed tobaccos this week
than last. A few small sales of 1900
Pennsylvania Broad leaf and old Geb-
hart were put through aggregating few
hundred cases. Rumors of damage in
1901 Connecticut have been prevalent in
the market this week. A prominent
packer who returned today from New
England said to the Leaf: II made a
careful examination of my packing, and
found some damage, but the percentage
was not large. From what [ have seen
and heard of other packings, imagine
that very few packers have escaped with
out some sick tobacco A peculiar thing
about the damage this year is that it is
confined almost exclusively to the dark
grades. The light tobacco is quite free
from it,

somewhat livelier tone and the demand

Havana.-The Havana branch of the
trade rallied from the interruption
caused by the midsummer holidays, and
business is now running along ''in the
even tenor of its way" With the fall
business approaching, manufacturers are
on the qui vive for bargains in good to-
baccos, and inquiry is becoming more
general. Actual sales, however, are still
few and far between.-Leaf

LANCASTER New ERA, July 15, 1902.

Although we hear great deal of DUH
times and nothing doing, somehow a
great deal of tobacco changes hands
from week to week. The sales are mostly
small ones, it is true, with only now and
then large lot, but in the aggregate the
volume of business is very fair one, and
at the end of the year the figures are as
large as they used to be when every
packer expected to sell his entire hold
lngs in one or two lots instead of half
dozen or more as now The sales that
have been brought to our notice are Goes
sold by Walter S. Bare, 10Ocs sold by
Kramer & Goldburg, l0Ocs sold by S. M.
Mumma, 353cs sold by George Hoffman,
and S57 cases sold by M. M. Fry: in all,
1475cs. For the corresponding week of
last year the sales were giles.
The weather for some days has been
everything the tobacco planters can we'll
desire. A hot sun above and plenty of
moisture in the ground are making the
plants do their best, and the fields are
showing wonderful improvement under
the favorable conditions. We note ten
dency on the part of plants to develop
seed buds at a too early period of their
growth, which is doubtless the result of
the long continued dry spell, but this
drawback, such as it is, may be overcome
by a spell of the present favorable
weather.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET,
EDGERToN, WIS, July 25. 100:

EDGERTON, WIS.,, July %, 1902.
The week has been one of heavy storms
and excessive rainfalls and throughout
the growing sections farmers of this
state have found but little time to de-
vote to the tobacco fields, either for cul-
tivation or topping which is now we'll
started. Hail also fell in limited areas,
but the damage resulting is meager COM
pared to the injury by the heavy winds
that accompanied the storm in some To-
calities. While the fields are making a
rapid growth, the condition of the grow
ing crop is not as favorable as it would
be under the influence of more sun and
drier weather.
There is absolutely no news about the
warehouses to be cleaned concerning
transactions in cured leaf. A fraction of
last seasons crop still remains in first
hands but no disposition to lift it can be
detected at present.
The market is equally dull in old leaf
among local packers. The sale of car
lot by L. B. Carle & Son is the only
transaction coming to notice.
The shipments out of storage do not
exceed 3O0cs from this market to all
points for the week past. Since last re-
port 540cs of cigar leaf were exported
from New York
