MIAMIsBuRG, O., June "a, 1909.

With the end of the coming week the
growers in the Miamisburg district viii
have finished their transplanting, nd
already the early calculations Of 9n-
siderably increased acreage have been
borne out. Anything like favorable
summer should give the Ohio farm rs
the finest tobacco yield they have ever
had. Deliveries Of tobacco are being
made quietly most every day, and buy-
ers are purchasing all he seed leaf and
Zimmer they can get at 8 and 10 cents.
Occasionally one hears of 8 and II cents
where unusually good crops are found.
Business is not active, however.

New YORK, June "a, 1909.

The local market in domestic leaf has
taken on very healthy tone, and the
leaf dealers are in better spirits than
they have been for long time. This
is not due so much to the quantity of
leaf that has changed hands during the
week, although this has been consider
able, but to the fact that the inquiry
and demand has been spontaneous, and
has seemingly proceeded from an actual
need of tobacco. The deals have not
been Of the specialized and sporadic
type that have for some time past char
acterized the market. None of the
sales have been large but pretty nearly
every house in the tobacco section tells
of transactions, and those houses that
carry full line of goods report that
some tobacco of each type has been
sold. This has encouraged the dealers
very much, and they now believe that
despite the imminence of the dog days,
the backbone of the depression in their
line has been broken, and that from
now on business will be better, basing
their belief on the well-knoWn fact that
the stocks in the hands of manufactur-
ers is not large, and that none of the
dealers are over-supplied with desirable
leaf. Leaf.

NEW uIlC ~, 4OUC.
With the dog-days on us good and
hard, the market swelters rather in
lethargy than in activity. Under a
broiling sun people are not prone to
venture forth on buying expeditions ex-
cept in cases of absolute necessity. The
market is at present not an attractive
field for speculative investments. Of
old stock only odds and ends are to be
found while the new crops will not be
sampled yet for many week. Trad
ing is therefore going or only from
hand to mouth, and it is likely to re-
main so till the season opens at the end
of next month or in August.
Business is steadily improving with
the majority of the New York clear
Havana factories and a fair summer
and busy fall seem to be in prospect.
Several of the large nickel factories are
enjoying a resumption of substantial
orders from old customers who have
been buying close to the mark OF I'M
mediate needs since the beginning of
the depression and this is regarded as
very healthy sign. At the same time,
one hears frequent complaint OF alleged
price-cutting by some of the Tampa
manufacturers, who, in their eagerness
to get business hitherto controlled by
New York houses still staying by the
local manufacturing center, are being
charged with quoting prices to jobbers
and dealers upon which no profit is ap-
parent. The feeling among the general
body of the New York manufacturers
is that the present is no time to cut
prices. Buyers, now in Havana, report
good wrapper scarce and leaf generally
dear; ana they prefer to let Tampa
competitors get the business offered
under their list prices rather than abate
their terms. Summer orders show an

 Anything wrong with Tom?" asked the man, anxiously, as he saw the let ter fall, half-read. from her hand.
 "Joe,' she said, Tom has written as if he had ny picture with him, and he left it at home. Here it fs"--she added, picking up heavy brown en- velope-"all ready to send to him"
 Taking out the photograph she looked earnestly at the pictured face, which bore no trace of doubt or sor- row.
 Joe" Mrs McAllister said, turn ing suddenly to the man, T shall not seud it to him now; l cant even write to him-how miserable l shall bel"
 Don't feel so badly-dont doubt Tom, Joe Bailey pleaded he may have another picture of you
 No, he hasn't" she returned, quick ly, "I gave the last one I had of any kind away last week"
 Let me see it, Mrs. Tom? Oh, yes" he said. as she handed the pic ture to him. Graves made it, didn't he?"
 Mrs. McAllister had not heard him. She had given up to her misery and sat on the couch, her face buried in the pillows.
 Joe Bailey arose, and looking at his watch, said:
 An engagement at ten-five minu- tes past now. Good-by, little woman don't cry any more."
 No answer came from the woman who had received her first jolt upon the highway of life.
 It was Tuesday of the same week, and Joe Bailey had spent few hours playing golf at the Country club links. Upon entering the smoking compart- ment of the belated traction car he found Tom McAllister occupying one of the wicker chairs.
 Hello. Mac!" he exclaimed, drop ping into the adjacent seat, q thought you were off on two weeks trip"
 "Your letter, Joe, spoiled me for business, and I am going home to Sunday with Alice.
 'I was sure. Joe." he added quickly.

University on a Novel Plan.

The American university at Wash ington is beginning the erection of buildings to cost $2,000,000. The Methodists hope to crown their edu- cational system with this post-gradu- ate institution.
 In two respects the American uni versity will be unique, says the Edu- rational Review, in that it will be the only educational institution in the United States which will confine its instruction to postgraduate studies and will not have any undergraduate schools attached to its scheme of edu- cation, and that the university will not enroll any students until every build ing Is erected and the total assets, property and endowment, amount to at least $10.000.OQ0.

'5'iss '1Ns, ps ". VI. SlldpHan.) Once there was a boy of ordinary inte 'li"cnce and attainments, and his name was Thomas. Blissfully he played with a rosy-cheeked maiden, Mandy by name. It made the neighbors glad 10 see Tommy and Maudy romping care-free together, and Tommy's moth CT did not think Maudy's mother was slovenly housekeeper. Furthermore, it is a fact that Maudy's mother did not feel that the parents of Tommy were socially impossible. It was agreed that the children were exactly suited to each other; they seemed to agree in their tastes, and they were supremely happy together
 As they grew up the affection each had for the other failed to diminish Everybody who knew them took it for granted that they would as soon as they were old enough get married. When Tom was 20 and Maude was IS they began to have the exclusive use of the Mullins front parlor-Mullins being Maude's last name-on Sunday. Tuesday, Thursdav and Saturday even- ings regularly and on Monday, Wednes- day and Friday evenings when they were not otherwise engaged. And, oh, how happy they were! Certainly they had lovers quarrels occasionally. but these were always quickly made up, with the usual delightful informal ities that attend the adjustment of such differences.
 When Tom was 25 and Maude B he had eyes for no other girl, and she re- garded him as the one man in the world who was absolutely without a fault. By this time people who knew them began to wonder when they were going to get married Mrs. Fergus said that she should think. seeing they'd been counting ever since they were babies, it was about time the, went to housekeeping, and Mrs. Gum. midge declared she couldn't see any sense in people putting it off and off year after year when they'd got their minds made up.
 By the time Tom had reached the age of 27 and Maude was 25 a good many of their acquaintances were oe- ginning to regard the affair as a scandalous one.
 Why in the world. people asked. didn't they get married? Tom was able to support wife, and it was a shame. IT he didn't intend to have her, for

 Fighting.

The firing tests of British battle
 hips in their firing on the old battle hip Hero are very interesting in one expect which appears to be of such importance that it may lead to new hethod of attacking battleships.
 After hitting the Hero four times he sank, and. strange to say, with nut having her underwater armor 1ierced. This was known from the act that shells were used which do rot perforate armor.
 The experts believe that in all prob ability one of the high explosive shells struck the water at a little distance from the ship, continued its course under water for short distance and struck the Hero at her most sensitive point. namely below her armor. and therefore acted like torpedo.
 Further experiments are being made to determine whether shells stri- king the water close to a target can be counted on to act in this way.
 That shells striking the water con- tinue on their course for short dis tance was we'll known. but no one ever supposed that this could be util ized to advantage in actual battle.

But Tom and Maude kept on being happy Night after night in the Null ins front pa.ior they made love and bissfully agreed that life was well worth living. or. at least, that it would have been if other people had kindly minded their own business, for by this time the lovers had found out that they were the talk of the whole neigh borhood.
 It was shortly after Maude had celebrated her twenty-seventh birth day that Tom went to her one morning with trouble on his mind.
 Darling" he said, your father came to me to-day. suppose you know why?"
 Its too bad" she replied, 'that people can't quit bothering them selves about us"
 After all, we've known each other long time. You know I love you with all my heart
 Yes. dear And you know I have never cared for anyone but you
 We have been very. very happy
 Very. very happy"
 Why should we put it of any longer? I can give you good home. our parents are waiting to give us their blessing, and-and-"

 This Is the way the situation pre- sents itself to me, darling" he as sented, taking her in his arms and kissing her the six thousand. seven hundred and eighty-fourth time.
 So they were married and lived un- happily ever after.

 Joe Bailey's reply did not carry the emphasis of conviction:
 "Of course you know best, Mac"
 Mrs. McAllister sat at her desk, en. deavoring to compose a dignified yet sufficiently resentful letter to her husband, but found 1t difficult task
 A step on the porch and the sound of key in the lock made her rush in 10 the hall. every nerve quivering in glad surprise. The next minute she was in her husbands arms and his voice was saying:
 You did not write, Alice, and I had to come home"
 She released herself, but all the studied words she had intended to say were forgotten.
 How could you do it, Tom; how could you?" Her voice was low and full of tears.
 Do what, little girl?" he asked.
 Write as you did about the picture when you had left it here"
 Tom McAllister gave one quick look at his wifes pale, sad face, and, stoop- ing, he quickly opened his suitcase.
 Alice, dear" he said, "I have an. other picture of you-here it is."
 Her body relaxed, the rose tint came to her cheeks again, and a deep fetched sigh escaped her lips.
 II am so glad!" she cried rapturous- ly. as she grasped the piece of card board in her outstretched hands. Then, with sudden decision, she added
