when women Hunt.

When women ride to hounds in the
farm lands, the hunt becomes a frolic,
a sort of equestrian picnic. Moonlight
autumn nights are usually chosen,
when the dew lies without cTispipg in
to frost. The start is after an early
supper, the finish followed by a late
one, miles and miles away. Women
ride as boldly as the huntsmen, but
are shown an almost embarrassing
consideration. Nobody claiming to be
a gentleman would hesitate for
minute to lose place in the run by
stopping to open a gate. or pull the
ton rail from a fence, that a woman
might pass.
Men and women alike sit light, but
steady, in saddle. Beginning to ride

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.

EDGERToN, Wis, May 15, 1908.
The local markets are as barren of
transactions as any time within the year.
Nowhere along the line are dealers ex-
hibiting much activity or disposition to
take over the remnants Of either old or
new goods remaining in farmers hands.
There is little warehouse hanuIing to
be completed, but practically the season
is closed and most dealerSpTeier to have
it remain so.
A return of warmer weather has
brought about a great change in the
plant beds which are coming along now
very rapidly. The beds show an abun-
dance of young plants, of healthy growth
and are attaining a size that is satisfac-
tory for the season. Growers are conf
dent that their plants will be early
enough for the usual transplanting and
plenty enough for all purposes.
The shipments out of storage reach 8
car loads, 430cs, from this market to all
points for the week,

Grand Jury Discharged.

The grand jury investigation of the
conduct of the municipal government in
GAINESVILLE came to sudden end Monday
when Judge B. f. Dunwiddie of circuit
court, acting on the recommendation of
District Attorney w. A. Jackson, dis
charged the jury.
The district attorney made the recon-
mendation that the jury be discharged
on account of the passage by the legisla-
ture of a bill requiring all grand juries
to be drawn by the jury commissioners.
This jury was not complete when the bill
was passed, as the jurors had not been
sworn in, and special venire had been
issued returnable Monday to fill vacan-
cies.
Judge Dunwiddie held that this Jury
was not legal one as it was drawn un-
der the old law and an indictment would
not hold if found. The discharge of the
jury caused a great feeling of relief to
many people about that town, who were
awaiting its action.
1t is believed this is the end of the
whole matter that has caused SO much
stir and feeling in GAINESVILLE.
George S. Parker, president of the
Municipal league, and the leagues at

New YORK, May 6. 1903.

The Atlantic City convention may
have had something to do with local
market conditions this week. at any
rate, business has been very quiet, es-
pecially in domestic leaf. Some few
sales have been made, but mono worthy
of especial note.
Sumatra. Considering how small
proportion of the new crop has been
shown SO far, the sales of 1902 tobacco
are very satisfactory. Some 200 bales
are reported as having been sold during
the past week. After lapse of about a
month, another inscription will be held
on Friday, and the sale is being looked
forward to with considerable interest.

South Deerfield, May 2: I'VE have had
heavy loss by fire. The packing ware
house of Joseph Myers Sons was burned
May l. This was run by John Decker.
There were over 500cs of tobacco all as
sorted and packed in the warehouse,
and some yet to be assorted. The loss
will exceed $4,000. At the same time,
there were two large cold storage estab-
lishments burned and one house, MAX
ing a total loss of over $4,000. It is
doubtful if the warehouse will be rebuilt
but the cold storage buildings will be re-
placed. This is a sad blow to our village.

LANCASTER NEW ERA, May 5, 1908.

AANCASTER NEW HRA, May y, lSUO'
BY general consent, the past week was
one of the dullest the local trade has en-
countered in long time. The only
business that we have been able to hear
of was that done by the houses that
cater to the local cigar trade, which is,
for the most part, confined to small lots,
frequently repeated. AS few of these
jobbe care to report these small lots,
there is nothing of consequence to go on
record.
About the only activity prevailing is
in the cigar trade itself, which is fairly
booming, if we may Judge from the re-
port of the Collector of Internal Reve-
nue. for the month of March, when more
than 100000 cigars stamped in this
district. With such an output prevail
ing all over the state and country, there
can be but one outcome to things, and
that is an active demand for leaf later
on, for to make the cigars the factories
of the country are now turning out will
require much tobacco
Some of the packing houses have,
closed for the season, all their tobacco,
having been cased and put away; some,
are still busy, and some time is likely to
| elapse before all are through. Then
will come few months of anxious sus-
pense. Let US hope the outcome will be,
| much more favorable than the pessil
, mists affect to believe,

New YORK, May 8, 1903.

This was moving week and though
quite number Of firms moved in the
street, the moving of stock was rather
backward. A lull seems to have spread
over the market and only the Florida
leaf seems to have been exempt from it.
1t appears that there is more demand
for that type than can be gratifad and
orders are being taken for lots of the
new crop, which is not marketable yet
The seed leaf market was actually dull
during the past week, and only an aver
age business was done in Sumatra and
Havana. AS the cigar industry is not
falling behind, it can be safely expected
that the market will soon return to it's
normal condition of ctivity.-Journal

Connecticut Valley Tobacco Marker,

The weather for producing plants al
an early day was probably never better
than during the present season. Some
correspondents say that unless the glass
is taken off, plants will be abundant by
the tenth of May. Farm work is we'll
advanced. The weather for the past
three weeks was never any better for
man or beast to work; dry, but fair,
with not drop of rain, yet cool enough
for any kind of team work.
One of my correspondents writes that
he has covered the floor of his 150 foot
curing barn with good coating of clean
sand. This has the effect to help cure

be very dark and is sometimes inclined
to pole rot. Such work is in the line of
improvement.

The activity of the trade continues un-
abated. In fact, it begins to look as if
the steady increase in imports and ex-
ports is a normal and permanent growth,
instead of temporary boom to be fol-
lowed by diminution. In March, 1908,
the imports of leaf were 81, ,383, ,497, as
against 81, ,248,940 in March, 1902. In
this increase the Netherlands and the
lands supplying Turkish leaf took the
augmenting. In March, this year, they
were 81, 1884. as against 81, ,620,36 a
year ago. In nine months the amounts
were s28,9e3, TIC and s20,773. .103, an in
crease of nearly 40 per cent. In all
branches of the industry, export and i'm
port, there is gratifying increase, ex-
cepting in the plug tobacco trade.

Supervisor Anderson, of New York
Racing Account the Recipient of
Congratulations From the Patrons
of the Paddock.=The Popular Lead
er and Gold-Tongued Orator Makes
Good as State Supervisor-The
State Racing Commission Elated
over the Report.
No better argument could be ad-
duced to prove the popularity OF rae
ing in this community of ours than
the annual report of Mr.. C. w. Ander-
son, State Supervisor of Racing Ac-
counts, which has just been filed with
the State Comptroller at Albany.
This report demonstrates that the
season of 1903 was the most successful
since the appointment of the State
Racing Commission.
Eight racing associations this year
contribute a total tax of 5000, ,741.67,
and this is $50, 0,655.79 more than the
tax of year ago. Last years tax-was
larger than any that had ever before
been levied for any such purpose in
the State.
This tax of more than 5000, 900
shows that the gross receipts of the
racing associations during the sea-
son amounted to upward of $4,000
600.
The report furnished by Supervisor
Anderson, is of great interest not only
in that it shows vast public patron
age of thoroughbred racing, as con-
Quoted under the auspices of the State
Racing commission, but that it means
a most handsome contribution to the
agricultural societies that are the ben
efieiaries of the five per cent. tax that
is levied upon all the receipts of rae
ing associations holding licenses from
the Commission.
Supervisor Anderson calls partic
lar attention to the fact that the 81
of $200.741.67 constitutes fund
which, under the direction of the leg
islature and the provisions of the
agricultural law, is distributed annual
ly in behalf of the State for prizes for
improving the breed of cattle. sheen
and horses at the various fairs
throughout the State.
Such distribution is made propor-
tionately to the premiums offered at
