years, and Frank TriDble, sentenced
to serve three years, on q charge of
killing Town Marshall X. II. Reach

with breach of peace for striking his
son with the butt of a pistol while
arresting him. Rogers and the two

son demanded Keach's revolver AMI

ing arrest and that the shot which
killed Reach was fired to save the
life of Constable Ferguson. The lat
ter was tried and acquitted of the
charge of conspiracy.

Washington, Feb. 19.-Beyond the
Burley district in Kentucky, to the
West, lies what the Department of
Agriculture calls Transition terri
tory which produces only small
quantities of tobacco. Farther west
is the Green River district, where the
type of tobacco grown is air-cured
like Burnley, but the general charac-
ter of the seed used, methods of cul-
tivation, ETC., are almost the same as
in the dark-fired district, covering
the remainder of Western Kentucky,
AS f. II. Mathewson, crop techno-
logist. Bureau of Plant Industry,
points out; the tobacco produced In
the Green River district is not quite
a typical manufacturing tobacco, nor
yet is II an export type. 1t is classod
as a dark tobacco and resembles in
size of leaf and general appearance
the product of the dark-fired district
adjoining on the west, except that,
being air-cured, il is free from the
odor and flavor of smoke and is
more acceptable for domestic manu-
facture and consumption. OF the to-
tai production of Green River tobac-
co. which is about s5.000,000 pounds
annually, 1t is estimated that about
two-thirds is used for domestic con-
sumption and one-third is exported,
nearly all going to Great Britain.
The portion consumed at home is
used principally in the manufacture
of long-cut smoking tobacco. Some
Of the finer grades are also used to
some extent in the manufacture of
fine-cut chewing tobacco.

Early Victorian Sleeves, Showing Leo

In Paris.

Tn Paris they are wearing many ear
ly Victorian sleeves which show the
leg o mutton style. AS they are almost
always expressed in flimsy materials.
the "gigot" effect Is not prominent, and
the folds of muslin or lace fall away
from the arms In peculiarly becom-
ing fashion.
These loose sleeves are always three
quarter length, and they are intro
duced on dresses and picturesque
coatees alike. Another fashionable
sleeve-also a revival-is of moyen-
age persuasion, absolutely tight from
elbow to wrist, and finished with Il
becoming petal cuff which almost
hides the hand.
These sleeves should be fastened
with very small pressure buttons or
tiny hooks and eyes on the under seam,
