TOBACCO LEAVES.
The First Europeans Who Saw Them

The First Europeans Who Saw Them
Used For Smoking.
The first Europeans who saw tobacco
smoked were two men whom Columbus
dispatched on an embassy Immediate
ly after the discovery of the island Of
Cuba. The names of these ENJOYS,
worthy of memory by the smoker, were
Roderigo de Jerez and Luis de Torres,
the latter Christianized Jew of spe-
cial proficiency in Arabic and Hebrew.
Six days were allowed to these two
worthless in which to accomplish their
mission, but after penetrating inland
for some twelve leagues and stopping
at village of a thousand inhabitants
they rejoined Columbus on Nov. 6. 1892.
and recounted the several wonders
which had fallen under their notice.
1t was on their way back to the
Spanish caravels, accompanied by
three natives. that they first saw smok-
ing practiced Several of the aborigines
were making use of dried tobacco
leaves, which they formed into long
roll, lighted and put in their mouths,
swallowing and putting out the smoke
These primitive and gigantic cigars the
natives called tabacos, name since
transferred from its original application
to the plant itself

English reader who has not been in

remember in description Of In
dia or Ceylon some forty years ago a
story of an Englishman who had a
monkey Looking out of his window
one day, he saw his cook getting a
fowl ready for boiling, while the mon
key lay on the ground shamming
death, and party of crows stood at
little distance divided between the de-
sire for the kitchen offal and the fear
of the possibly shamming monkey.
One crow more adventurous than the
rest came within the magic distance
and was instantly in the clutch Of the
monkey. At the same moment the
cook, having finished trussing the fowl,
put it into the pot and went away.
The monkey plucked his crow as he
had just seen the cook pluck the fowl,
took the fowl out of the pot, put the
crow in and retired with his exchange.
When the cook came back and saw the
fowl left preparing for his masters

be supposed, struck black with terror

missioners:
Gentlemen-During February wea-
ther conditions have been such as to pre-
clude, any outdoor work on the
Water Supply. Work has therefore been
limited to the mucking necessary in Wat
chung tunnel to bring inyeTt to sub-grade.
At present rate of progress the required
excavation should be- completed in the
latter part of March.
The reservoir basin was filed up to
elevation 273.SS on the 23d of February,
and water was flowing over the spillway
on that day. When dam is completed
the flow line will be at elevation
305. .25.
Water from storage basin was turned
into conduit No. 1, for flushing purposes,
on the 10th of February at rate of about
10 millions per diem and wasted at Peck
mans Creek. The conduits are, however,
to be emptied preliminary to testing them
for capacity, etc, in order to permit of
thorough inspection as to their then
condition.
Sanitary inspection of the water shed
is still being prosecuted. While generally
the condition has been found unobjec-
tionable, still there are some points that
will require attention and on the 4th
