"HAvANA" CIGARS.

What is q Havana cigar? George
Augustus Sala, who had studied
Cuban cigarmaking on the spot, once
set forth that three kinds of cigars
come from Havana itself. First,
genuine Hayanas, made of tobacco
grown, cured and rolled in the island
of Cuba; secondly, cigars composed
inside of United States or European
tobacco imported into Cuba, with an
outside wrapper of Havana leaf ;
thirdly, cigars brought ready-made
from Europe, mostly from Bremen
and Switzerland, and re-exported
from Havana to Europe, where they
pay duty and are sold to the unwary
as "Hayanas."

HOW A HORSE GALLoPs.
Conventional Mode Of Represents
ton and It's Origin.

From the Chicago Tribune.
How does a horse galop? Owing to the
rapidity of action IL cannot be seen by the
human eye. However. just as the indi-
vfdual spokes Of a rapidly revolving
wheel can be made visible by fash Of
lightning, SO the action of galloping
horse can be and has been analysed by
instantaneous photography.
The statuette of Sysonby. the thorough
bred, has been made from photographs
taken at the instant when all four legs
are off the ground. The back is arched,
the hind feet are directed forward. the
fore feet backward, SO that all are tuck
ed under the animals body.
When the limbs again touch the ground
the first to do so is one OF the hind feet.
which is thrust far forward SO as to form
an acute angle with the line of the body.
and thus serve the purpose of spring
in breaking the force OF the impact of the
hoof when the horse is going at top
speed.
ing a galloping horse all four legs are
of the ground at once. but the front
pair are extended backward In such 4
way that the under surfaces of their
hoofs are directed skyward. the body be-
ing at the same time brought near thu
ground. This conventional pose appears
to have been derived from a dog run
ming, when the front and hind pairs of
legs are respectively extended forward
and backward, with the soles of the hind
feet turned upward.
This pose. it is thought. was adopted
to represent the gallop OF the horse by
the goldsmiths of Mycenae, between $40
and 1000 b. c.. whence it was transmitted
by way OF Persia and Siberia to China
and Japan. to return In the eighteenth
century. as the result Of commercial re.
lations. to western Eurone.

Why Spain Is Poor.
From Putnam's.


with all this intelligence, why is tho
country SO poor?" it will be asked. Why
are splendid copper and silver mines left
to be worked by foreigners? Why is the
name of Spain so often synonymous with
stagnation? What is the cause Of the in
ertia. which impedes the circulation of
movements for education In the provinces.
where people can rarely read and write ?
What is the reason of the paralysis which
checks agricultural work, even in such
fertile districts as Andalusia. Valencia
Gaiicia, etc.? And what is it that prevents
the fulfilment of projects of industrial
value? To all these questions there is but
one answer-it is the want of a pure
Suffrage; and 1t is the present dawn of
success in this matter which promises q
new era for the country. If Alfonso XIII
be allowed to learn the real opinions
of his subjects. and to follow his own
good sense as a statesman, he will soon
steer the ship of state into the harbor
of good governmnt.

What if the World Stoppedp


Suppose that some mysterious power.
entirely mental or spiritual in its nature.
and Of high order Of intellect, a men
tally OF soul absolutely acquainted with
the human mind even down to minute de-
tails, should desire to make an announce.
ment. statement to mankind in general
how would 1t proceed to attract atten-
ton? l have thought of few ways or
methods which could attract the atten-
ton of man. Thus. suppose that at exact
noon In the observatory in Washington
or Greenwich all the telegraphic instru-
ments on earth should instantly refuse
to work. Let every wire on land and in
cables beneath the sea cease to act. Let
every key come to rest and every sounder
be silent. Imagine this silence to con-
tinue five minutes. The attention of all
telegraph people would be attracted and
then that of newspaper men. Let ten
minutes pass. and business men would
hear of the phenomenon. Let the trouble
continue during an hour. then everybody
living In cities might hear that the tele-
graphs were lifeless. In one year, per-
haps. half Of the human race would hear
OF the disturbance.

Organized Thought.
From Nautilu

Today there is no such thing as organ
lied thought. The thought of the world
Is a tumble, a mass of unsystematized
mental effort, with no meaning, no Sc
quence, no end, no deliberate result. 1t
should not be so. 1t can be changed We
have organized thought. and that thought
can be moral, healthful. cheerful, beauti-
full. successful. The world should have
the benefit Of this truth. 1t is high time.
The United States is in a position to begin
and within a generation or two, yes. in
ten years. some pretty plain indications
will assure US that by organizing thought
we have added to the joy. peace and pros
perity OF our country. Thought is a
definite force. Vt has been asked IL there
is any way to avail ones self of 1t for
ones advantage. We can. The average
thought OF the people today is what we
may cali desultory, casual. without any
especial aim and utterly out Of harmony.

There is little necessity nowadays Of

implements to save wear and tear on the
fingers is the wire-working device de-
signed by an Iowa man. This contrivance
takes piece of wire, cuts it to desired
length, bends it into the form of the let

of the gaps in the corrugated carriage
way and as the latter is turned the ridge
behind carries the wire down a slot and
bends it into shape. In another part is
a cutting device designed to cut second

formed. At the back is grip by which
