Cigar Sales Light.

Cigar dealers OF this city claim that
the cigar sales are lighter the first
week of the year than any other week.
Some Of the reasons for this are that
travelling men are scarce around the
hotels, another that many men receive
a box or two for Christmas, and then
the good resolutions make differ
ence. 1t is on the unfortunates, or.
perhaps you may say fortunates, who
did not get cigars for Christmas that
the greater part of the sales are de-
pendent.

HIS ODD AID.
The Collar That Gave PIumIey Sec

The Collar That Gave PIumIey Sec
ond Start In Business.
Nothing succeeds like persever
ance," said Mark Twain at dinner.
"When the luck seems most against
US, then we should work and hope
hardest of all. In moments of dis
enlargement let us remember my old
friend Henry Plumley of Virginia City.
Henry Plumley ran collar factory.
Times were reported to be hard with
him. When his factory, which was
very heavily insured, burned down,
there was every indication that he
had set the place ON fire himself in
order to get the insurance money. Vir-
ginia City was the soul of honor in
those days. Shocked beyond words, it
rose en- masse, seized Henry Plumley,
put halter round his neck and lynch
ed him.
"But he did not die. The sheriff ar
rived and cut him down in time. He
was tried and found guilty, and he
served term in jail.
"On his release you wouldn't have
thought that he'd return to Virginia
City again, Ell? He did, though. He
came back, reopened his collar factory
and prospered.
what gave him his start was the
odd advertisement with which he an
nounced his return to business among
us. Preceded by brass band, Henry,
In great gilt chariot, burst upon our
streets. He sat on a kind Of golden
throne, and he held on crimson cush.
ion In his lap an old, old collar. Above
the collar on a crimson banner waved
this inscription in huge letters of gold:
"'This is the collar we wore when
we were lynched. 1t saved our life.

The Muskellunqe.

The Indian name of this great fighter
Of the fresh water lakes and tributa-
ries Is "esoxmasquinongy." Our nat
uralists have the word translated into
about eight or nine different styles, but
the correct way Of spelling it in our
language is undoubtedly "muskel-
lunge." Most fishermen, however,
pronounce and spell it to suit them
selves, and no man seems to be an ac-
cepted authority. 1t is one thing in
Canada, another in the st. Lawrence
and another in the great lakes. The
favorite among New Workers is mus
callonge." The fish reaches a length
Of seven and a half feet, and the big
gest ever taken is said to have
weighed ninety-two pounds. In game
ness it is said to surpass the tarpon
Of the Caribbean and the tuna OF the
Pacific.-New York Press.

The CYCLONE.
How This Wonderful and Destructive
Air Fury Is Formed,

MT EOTU1GOs
To get an idea of a cyclones forma-
ton imagine a large circular pan or
tub with quite large hole in the
middle of the bottom. With this hole
plugged, fill the vessel with water,
then draw out the plug and watch.
There is first a rush of water from
all directions toward the hole and a
turbulent effort to get through; then
the water surface above begins to
sink and swirl, the particles gradually
circling around and around and rush
ing, ever faster, toward the center.
At last there is actually hollow space
through the center, around which all
the water in the tub is whirling slug
gishly near the rim, but with more and
more violent rapidity toward the mid
die until it rushes downward through
the bottom. Now, if that water were
air you would be watching a little
cyclone turned upside down, for the
air rushes upward instead of down
ward.
In the cradle of cyclones during the
summer months, when the land and
the water grow hotter and hotter be-
cause of the longer days than nights,
a layer of air, hot, light and full of
vapor, is for time held down by
denser air above 1t. Restless, expand
ing, tumultuous, it moves about like a
beast at bay until thinner place in
the air above is found; then up it mad
ly rushes, and into the vacuum left be-
hind the lower atmosphere hastens from
all directions, pushing and twisting
and pouring upward until it has fallen
into a regular spinning around a COM
mon center.
The cyclone, once formed, rushes
away from the tropics toward the pole
and begins its career Of destruction,
bruising, wrecking and sinking the
luckless ships which happen to be in
its path. More and more of the sur
rounding atmosphere is drawn into the
whlrl until the storm often covers an
area nearly 1000 miles in diameter.
Sometimes it filings itself upon our At
lantic coast and tears fiercely through
forests, fields and cities. Then, again,
It sweeps away across the broad ocean
and dashes itself upon the coasts of
Europe Once in awhile it so adroitly
avoids the land that we never know it
hiss passed until ships come in torn
and broken.-St. Nicholas.

HINDoo PROVERBS.

Happiness consists in the absence of
anxiety.
Truth, contentment, patience and
mercy belong to great minds.
Little things should not be despised.
Many straws united will bind an ele-
plant.
1t can never be safe to unite with an
enemy. Water, though heated, will soon
extinguish fire.
He who removes another from dan
ger and he who removes terror from
the mind are the greatest of friends.
Courage is tried in war, integrity in
the payment Of debt and interest, the
faithfulness Of wife in poverty and
friendship in distress.
Every one looking downward be-
comes impressed with the idea of his
own greatness, but looking upward
feels his own littleness.
He who in your presence speaks
kindly, but in your absence seeks to
injure, must be rejected like a bowl
of poison covered with milk.
Obedience of Orders.
A naval commander in the reign of
Queen Anne was ordered to cruise with
a squadron within certain limits on the
coast of Spain. Having received infor-
nation that Spanish fleet was in VI
go, beyond his limits, he resolved to
risk his personal responsibility for the
good of his country He accordingly
attacked and defeated the Spanish fleet
with uncommon gallantry. When he
Joined the admiral under whom he
served, he was ordered under arrest
and was asked If he did not know that
by the articles Of war he was liable to
be shot for disobedience of orders.
He replied with great composure that
he was very sensible that he was, but
added, 1.-THE man who is afraid to risk
his life in any way when the good of
his country requires it is unworthy Of
a command in her majesty's service"

BUYING OLD RIDDLES.
Many Fine Instruments Have Been
Picked Up Cheap.


Great numbers of fine old violins and
violoncellos that come into the high
class market of London are procured
through the medium of advertisements
inserted i'll obscure country papers
and especially those of ancient cathe-
dral cities.
OF course few of the fiddles thus OBJ
tanned are veritable masterpieces, but
great many of them are fine exam
pies of early English and foreign max
ers, and they are often bought for RI
diculously small prices by a group Of
experts, who have brought the bust
ness to a lucrative system. Many Il
struggling family Of long descent, in
some out Of the way part of the coun.
try, happens to see in the one county
newspaper Of the week that good
prices are given for old fiddles, and
some long forgotten instrument in a
lumber room or put away on q shelf
suddenly comes to mind
Correspondence follows. The dealer
sends deposit in order that some I'D
die spoken Of may be sent to him and
examined, and he usually replies that
the instrument sent is dilapidated and
but $3.50 generally, but that he is will
ing to give 30 shillings OF e. for 1t. In
great many cases the offer is ac-
cepted offhand, and in this way most
Of the finest fddles extant Of the Sec
ond class come into the hands Of deal
ers. Only lately a cello that came
from a Shropshire farm at the price
Of e sold the same day to a west
end dealer for nearly f1OO.
One Of the most shrewd and respect
ed Of all these dealers was until a
year or two ago humble member of
the orchestra Of a London suburban
theater. He began to advertise in re-
mote papers to the greatest limits Of
his scanty wages and is now one of
the most extensive and prosperous
dealers in the trada--London Tit Bits.

A SILLY TRAGEDY.
The Duel Between Tom Porter anc
Sir Henry Beliasis.

SdSt 6CtWo0H OH TOTg0T ana
Sir Henry Beliasis.
Some of the royalists who were
forced to endure the English common
wealth seemed to console themselves
for the dizziness of life under Puritan
government by fighting as many duels
as they could compass, so that ignoble
sQuabbles and foolish plots make up
the history of their days.
Tom Porter was Of q family which
had zealously served the king. Under
the new government his occupation was
gone, and he descended to trlviality
of life which finally involved him in
most pathetic event This was a duel
which he fought with his friend, Sir
Henry Bellasis, and which, says Pepys
in his "Diary," is worth remembering
for ''the Stiffness of the quarrel, = a
kind of emblem Of the general COM
plexion of the whole kingdom"
But, silly as the quarrel undoubtedly
was, it carried in it an element of heart
break.
The two young men involved were
one day, being merry in company"
Tom Porter said he should like to see
the man in England who would dare
give him blow. With that Sir Henry
Bellasis struck him a box ON the ear.
The inevitable duel followed, wherein
each was wounded. Sir Henry proved
to be seriously hurt, so he called Por-
ter, kissed and babe him fly.
"For," said he, "Tom, thou hast hurt
me, but will make shift to stand upon
my legs till thou mayest withdraw, for
/ would not have thee troubled for
what thou hast DONE"
Porter profited by his friends gener-
osity and escaped to France Sir Henry
died few days later, and Pepys con-
cludes, ut is pretty to see how the
world do talk Of them as a couple of
fools that killed one another out Of
1--we"

Old Glory Humiliated.

One instance is known in which Old
Glory's shame is the crown of a fam
ily's prestige. At the battle Of Bla-
densburg the American troops were
defeated by the British under the COM
mand Of an Irish officer named Ross.
In recognition of his services in WIN
ming this victory his sovereign granted
him the title Of Ross of Bladensburg,
and to his crest was added an Amer
lean flag, reversed, with the shaft
broken. The title is hereditary. In
our generation the possessor is a colo
mel Of the Irish fusileers. And this
Ross Of Bladensburg uses as his crest
today our stars and stripes turned up
side down and with the shaft broken
in two.-Chicago Record-Herald.
