CIGARS KEPT SINCE 1861.
Manufacturers, Unwilling to Pay Tax on 1S,Coo, Now Deaa-Rev-
 enue Officials Puzzled.

Reading. Pa.-The attention of the local internal revenue office has been called to an unusual case Reuben Keinert, cigar manufacturer. died re- gently in Hereford. this county. Stored at .is home are 1S,o00 cigars that were made before the civil war. and the ad- ministrator of his estate is now won dering what to do with them. In addi- tion to the cigars there is sufficient leaf tobacco to fill four horse wagon.
 Keinert had the 18,000 cigars on hand when the government, needing money to carry on the war. passed the revenue Jaw which made it necessary to put sey- eral dollars worth of stamrs on each l, ,0o0 cigars. Mir Keinert was opposed to this and declined to buy stamps. As a result he could not sell his cigars and for. 45 years they have been stored.
 About the time that the stamp law was passed he was offered &, 900 in gold for the cigars but he declined to sell. thinking that as soon as the war was over the revenue law in regard To the cigars would be repealed. With each recurring congress he expected this to happen, but each time the aged cigar maker was disappointed.
 After nearly half century he died, with the revenue law in force and his 1S.000 cigars in storage. They are iE excellent condition. Friends of the ie- cedent say he was stubborn man and would never dispose of anyt.ilng unless he secured his price.

ONE WAY OF DoINGTThINGs

The average man, contemplat-
ing the building of house,
would first learn the size and the
kind of a house he wanted; he
would then ascertain as nearly
as possible the least amount for
which the house could be built.
Knowing the kind of house
wanted and finding that it would
take three Thousand dollars to
build it just as he wanted it
built, he would hardly set aside,
or borrow, FIVE, six or seven
thousand dollars for the pur-
pose.
A law was enacted by the last
legislature authorizing and di-
recting the Board of County Com
missioners of White Pine county
to establish a fire protection
system in the town of Ely and to
issue bonds therefor in any sum
not to exceed S., 900, drawing in
terest at the rate of six per cent
. per annum.
Without any definite idea of
the kind or extent of system re-
quired and without any idea at
all of what the cost Of putting in
the system will be, the Board
promptly ordered the issuance OF
bonds on the property of the
town of Ely to the amount OF
$6,OOO-the maximum amount al
lowed by the law-and levied a
special tax of seventy cents on
the 500 valuation on all property
within the limits of the town to
pay the interest and to redeem
the bonds when due.
It may cost the full $4,000 and
it may cost $4,000 to fully equip
the plant-we do not know
neither do the most potent,
grave and reverend Signeurs. .
Men better qualified than we are
to express an opinion on the sub
ject have estimated the cost of
system that will IS fully protect
the the town as under the con-
ditions such town can be pro-
tected, at $4,000 or hess.
The plain, common-sense meth
cd, it would seem, would have
been to determine just what was
wanted, then call for bids for
putting in the system in accord
ance with the specifications SET
forth in the call. The Board
would then have had some slight
notion of what it is doing-an
anomaly hardly to be expected.

Return of the Hoopskirt.

Authorities on fashions assure us
that every twenty-five years the hoop
skirt returns to feminine favor again
1t was in evidence in 1865 and in 1880
and the twenty-five years appear to be
up. Therefore the hoopskirt is once
more to be in the midst of us who are
men; and our mothers, wives. sisters,
and the other fellows sisters are to be
in it midst. Like fiery comet which
porteEds feminine and various other
unpleasant things, our feminine rela-
tons are henceforth to be bright spot
Of humankind preceding and followed
by vast amount of less brilliant trail
If there were any way of postponing
or enjoining, or appealing the hoopsklrt
to higher court than that of fashion
it is likely that men would institute
proceedings. and do it now. The hoop
skirt, if it stands for anything. stanus
for remoteness and sequestration 1t
means more needles, clothing and, pro-
portionately, less woman. We are of
those who believe that there cannot be
enough of woman. in either the indi-
vidual or in mass But we do think
there can be and has been too much

Ex.Fn,nress Engenie,

The ex-Empress Eugene has been
enjoying herself very much in Egypt
where she travelled under her usual
incognito of the Countess of Pierre
Ponds, 4 name which causes much
difficulty to the ordinary English SER
want, who. is apt to announce her in
many strange ways. She is one OF
the most surprising ladies living, when
one thinks that she soon enters her
eightieth year and remembers all her
varied experiences since she first went
to France as the Countess of Montijo
The beauty for which she was famed
at the zenith of the third empire has
changed into that of an elderly woman
Though she is somewhat lame and has
difficulty in getting out of her carriage,
she still holds herself straight and
looks every inch an empress. But
what impresses one most about her is
her intarissable faconde, the inexhaust-
