TOBACCO BLUNTS TASTE.
Smokers Must Have Highly Seasoned
Foods, Woman SAYS.

"With the sense of taste atrophied
by tobacco, men must have highly
seasoned foods to tickle their palates,
and the constant eating Of such foods
disables the individual from recog-
nizing delicate flavors."
So DR.. Elizabeth II. Dunn, instructor
Of anatomical research at Chicago uni
versity, told the Chicago Medical so,
ciety. She added that 70 per cent Of
the sense Of taste is lost by the habitu.
al smoker over forty years of age. 1t
makes no difference whether he smokes
a pipe or cigars.
Strange revelations would occur to
civilized persons We're the senses of
taste, touch and smell developed equal
ly, she said, with those of sight and
hearing She said that in virtually all
persons the senses Of taste, touch and
smell were either undeveloped or un
used and that the dormant state of
those senses was more marked in men

LINCOLN ON ALABAMAS.
President Told England That One
More Privateer Would Mean War,

President Told England That One
More Privateer Would Mean War.
Samuel r. Moseley, editor of the
Hyde Park (Mass.) Gazette, has writ
ten recently a highly interesting Lin
coin story
An incident in the sad and busy life
of Mr.. Lincoln, Mr.. Moseley says in
the Gazette. was unfolded to a num-
ber Of citizens of the town, of whom
the writer was one, during an excit-
ing state political campaign, an &C.
count Of which we have never seen
published.
General Benjamin F. Butler was
making his campaign for governor,
and one evening he spoke in Everett
hall, and we never saw a larger audi.
ence in the building before or since.
After the rally General Butler pro-
ceeded to the Everett House, where
he was entertained for an hour or
more before leaving for Boston.
At the time the Alabama was de.
stroyed by the Kearsarge there was
great excitement throughout the coun-
try, the general said, especially in
view of the fact that England had an
nounced her intention Of permitting
another privateer to leave an English
port to destroy northern commerce on
the high seas.
The mere announcement was enough
to startle the country, and Mr.. Lincoln
at once called his cabinet together to
consider the matter
The north's resources were greatly
reduced by its long struggle with the
south, but there was an unmistakable
feeling among the loyal people that If
England permitted another privateer to
leave it's shore after the splendid VIC
tory of Commodore Winslow at Cher
bourg the government would be justi-
fed in declaring war on our British
cousins.
At the meeting of the cabinet Secre-
tary Of State Seward and others took
conservative view Of the question, ad-
vising delay, while Secretary of War
Stanton and Mr.. Lincoln were more
aggressive and wanted the matter set
tied at once.
Finally Mr.. Lincoln took card from
the table and quickly adjourned the
meeting after writing these decisive
instructions to his secretary of state:
"Mr. Seward-You will say to Lord
Palnerston that ono moro Alabama
means war. A. LINcoLN."

WALT WHITMAN.

The ship has weather'd every rack,

Tho port is near, the bells ! hear, the
people all exuIting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the
vessel grim and daring.
But heart! heart! heart!
o the bleeding drops Of rcd,
Where on tho deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead!
~ CAPTAIN! My Captainl Rise up

Rise up-for you the flag is flung

For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths
for you tho shores a-crowdingi
For you they call, the swaying mass,
their eager faces turning.
Here, Captain! Dear fatherI
This arm beneath your head;
It is some dream that on tho deck
You've fallen cold and dead.
MY Captain does not answer, his
" lips are pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm,
no has no pulse nor will;
Tho ship is anchor'd safe and sound,
it's voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship comes
in with object won.

Griffith formerly was Little Rock

Of his toes mitigated against attaining

tanned by making Good.'
A "city Of vagabonds" is to be estab-
nshed by Nebraska, and all tramps,
drunkards or delinquents Of other
kinds who drift into that state will be
in danger Of being made citizens of the
new colony.
The "city" will not rob the peniten-
tiary Of any of it's prisoners, but is in
tended to take care of that large class
Of unfortunates designated by profess
sional charity workers as "below the
poverty line" The bill creating the
new colony is before the Nebraska
legislature.
It will be the first institution Of it's
kind In the United States and as an
experiment along untried lines is at
tracing the attention of sociologists
everywhere. No real criminals will be
admitted to citizenship, only unfortu
mates being accepted.
Big Acreage Required.
The bill calls for the establishment
Of a colony on the prairies far from
the temptations of large city. The
size of the institution is not mentioned
in the bill, but its hackers think from
5000 to 10000 acres will be necessary
once the colony is in full working Or
der. In addition to big farming area,
there will be shops Of all kinds, an iron
fnnn6ru chnnohnn hnn1y yhir6apv
tailor shop, furniture factory, a
planning mill and similar industries.
The output Of the colony will not come
in competition with that Of private
concerns, but will be used in great
measure in the different state institu-
tions.
AS described In the bill, it's purpose
is "the establishment of colony for
the detention, humane discipline and
reformation of male adults committed
as tramps, vagrants, inebriates and
those addicted to the excessive use Of
cocaine, morphine and other narcotics
and unable to provide for those de.
pendent upon them"
Freedom on "Makine Good"
When one coming within those lines
is brought before the proper authort
ties, instead Of being sentenced to the
city Jail or the state prison he will bt
sent to Vagabond City. No fixe(
term Of incarceration Is settled upon
but the delinquent is simply sent to
the city until he becomes self support
ing, after which he Is sent back to
the world as man able to take care
of himself While in the "city" he
Is taught an occupation or trade, and
instead Of the man unable to support
himself he is sent out to the world
skilled laborer.
1t Is the belief Of the supporters OF
the bill that from two years to ten
years will be needed in which to make
the colonists self supporting.

Prospect of Peace in Mexico.

1t is sincerely TO be hoped that the
Mexican situation will soon be amicably
settled. The outlook is most favorable.
The United States will welcome the
end of the Mexican insurrection with
profound satisfaction. Mexico is allied
to this country by its contiguity and also
by the fact that American capital has
been largely invested in Mexican enter
prises. The hostilities which have been
in progress, while not of the most seri-
Gus nature, have been sufficient to cause
unrest and have also given opportunity
TO the enemies of the republic TO indulge
in pessimistic forecasts With the set
tlement of the difficulties there will come
renewed confidence in Mexico's future
President Taft emerges from the sit
uation with credit. The wisdom of or
dering the troops to the border has been
amply demonstrated. but nothing has
been done which would afford a sister
republic the slightest ground for ofense.
The whole affair has been handled tact
fully and with proper regard for Aneri-
can interests.

According to Mr.. Hitchcock, the saw
ing has been accomplished without de-
creasing in any degree the postal IA
cilities, while the compensation of the
employees has been increased There has
been, however, 4 marked reduction in
expenditures Cue to the introduction of
methods. and if the revenues
had shown normal increases the depart
ment would have had substantial sur
plus to its credit
Mr. Hitchcock has every reason to
feel proud OF the results achieved By his
