Tastes In Cigars.

The public taste for cigars varies in
different localities and countries, and
in all the large factories cigars are
conditioned to suit the demand. of
the country to which they are be
sent In Europe, more especiaio in
the British isles. the consumer of
cigirs requires that they should be
dry. in fact. almost brittle. 1t is a
common incident in that country to
see a smoker take his cigar and place
1t to his ear to see II it will give
forth a cracking sound, and II 1t
does not crackle, the cigar is con-
sidered too moist. Pipe smoking to-
baccos. however. are required very
moist. In the United States the prop
er condition for cigars and pipe smok.
ing tobaccos is just the reverse, says
Science. The American smoker re-
quires his cigars in such a condition
that the wrapper, binder and filler
will yield to the pressure of the fin
gers without cracking or breaking the
wrapper; while. ON the other hand,
the smoking tobaccos especially the
sranuIated tobaccos. must be mod
erately dry.

PROPHETS LATEST VISION.
Dowie Commanded to Abandon His
Mexican Scheme.

Chicago.-John Alexander Dowie's
plan for a Mexican colony was aban.
doned in obedience to a command re-
ceived by Dowie in vision that came
to him last Friday night and that
lasted five hours. according to an an.
nouncement made to-day by Deacon
Arlington, one of Dowie's followers,
who has remained loyal to the deposed
prophet.
The scheme, Deacon Arlington said.
was relinquished in favor Of another
that contemplated the raising of ST..
900 900 in Chicago for the purpose OF
restoring Dowie's prestige and power
The announcement was made In a
small church in Chicago. All prepar.
ations for Dowie's departure for Mex
leo had been completed when, in Wis
ion, accompanied by binding white
light, the glory of which could not be
described, the "First Apostle" declared
he saw the Master and heard his voice.
He was commanded, he said, to give
up. the Mexican project and seek the
glory Of Zion elsewhere. Dowie then
commissioned Deacon Arlington to
come to Chicago and raise $1,0O0.000
for God and Zion."

Mormon Church Conference.

Salt Lake City.-The feature of Sat.
urday's session of the semi-annual con
ference of the Mormon Church was the
address Of Senator Reed Smoot, who
is also an apostle of the church. He
declared he was neither ashamed OF
his religion or his state and that while
he believed his first obligation was to
God, he still affirmed that that duty
could not conflict with his duty to his
country. He appealed to the Nor.
mons to concentrate their efforts to OBJ
tanning land in preference to other
forms of investment. Another speaker
referred to the wonders of irrigation
in the West as fulfillment of pro-
