The laws were con stantly qltered and enforced and still tobacco was grown and was smoked. No one could take it "publicquely," nor in his own house or anywhere else before strangers. Two men Were for* bidden to smoke together. A No one could smoke within^ two miles of the meeting-houses on the Sabbath day. There were wickedback sliders who were caught smoking around the /corner of the meeting house, and othfers on the street, an$ they Were fined, and get in fbe%oe£p and in cages. Until within a few years there were New England towns where tobacco smoking in tlii streets, wasprohibited, and innocent cigar-loving travelers were astoundecLat being requested to cease smoking. Mr. Drake wrote, in 1866, that he knew men, then living, who had to plead guilty or not guilty in a Boston police court for smoking in the streets of Boston. In Connecticut, in early days, a great indulgence was permitted to travelers —a man could smoke once during a journey of ten miles. WHY HE KEPT A DOG. The Excellent mad Sufficient Reason Fnrnlalied by a Sympathetic Master. A prominent dog-fancier and wealthy man of Philadelphia stepped into a grocery the other night, says the Press, and accidentally stumbled over a fat old German, who was sit ting in a corner smoking his pipe. Under his chair was the most re markable specimen of a dog that the gentleman had ever seen. It had the appearance of a pug, with rough red hair and a long tail. It was impossi ble to resist laughing at the placid old man and his nondescript dog. "What kind of dog is that?" asked the gentleman. "I don't know,? replied the Ger man. "I suppose you use him for hunt ing?" "No." "Is he good for anything?'' "No." "Then why do you value him so?** "Because he likes me," said the old fellow, still puffing his pipe, and the expression of the dog, as he looked up from under the chair, fully con firmed the statement. "There is no better or stronger rea son than that," asserted the gentle man, emphatically, as he walked away. Klectrie Tabular Railroad. Marseilles talks of having a tuba of a new description This will be. a submarine line connecting Chateau d'lf, made famous by Dumas pere'a "Monte Cristo." The railway will be of the electric'tubular type. The dis tance between Marseilles' old port and the island on which the castle stands is a little under one mile, and the steamers talce half an ho'ui to do the trip. As visitors would ef fect an immense saving of time by the tube the propounder of the scheme fully believes' that he may count upon carrying 500 passengers to and fro per diem, and if this san guine estimate is realized he will thus be enabled to cover the enor mous expense of the tunneling \turks and maks profit 5P: •r*zgp jnS 4 *'f*U fly 'IN Wabaaha. clty' Wabasso village 17g Waeonla vlliage tm- Wadena village :liSSPV: Walfe Park village.............

Regralstlou* Resardlng the We«d Is Old Colonial Dan Were Very Severe. _____ It is one of the curiosities ot old time legislation that the use of tobac co was in early colonial days regard* ed by the magistrates and eldjers as far more injurious, degrading and sin ful.than that of intoxicatiBf^liquors.. Both the use and the planting, of the weed' were forbidden, the cultivation of it being permitted only in small quantities, "for metre necessitie, for phisick, for preservation of the health, and that the same be taken privately by anncient men But the "Creature called Tobacko" seemed to have an in destructible life. Mrs. Alice M.' Earle writes of these early restrictions about tobacco in "Stagecoach and Tavern Days." jjftffenn NBWS s/,»t ,*ii- 'Tbe-.state fair directors have re ceived a proposition for^the estabHsfcf4 'jiibnt tad maintenanoe upon the grounds ot postoffloe during and im mediately before fair week.

According to Mr. Fullerton's* outline of his ideas, there will be some 35 tanks of fish, which will show every prominent variety found in the waters of the state, and will show not only the grown fish, but the fry and year lings of the same class. A Big Contract. As the result of a bet between two well known Minneapolis men, Charles Wintry otherwise "Feathers," will at tempt to swim from Chapman's hotel in upper lake at Minnetonka to Excelsior and thence to Wyzata, without leaving the water or resting The distance is 21 miles, She same covered by Cap. Webb in his long swim across the English channel, and it was a discussion of this feat that lead to the wager on Wintry's ability to make the long trip. As a matter of fact there is no com parison between the two performances. Webb slrttm with the tide in salt water^ whichi is of much greater density than fnsh water. Wintry, if he fulfills his contract, will have to battle against dead water the whole distance, but he is confident of his ability to do the trick if unlimited as to time. Gasoline I^et Go. A gasoline explosion is responsible for the very serious burnt received by Miss Ridgway, daughter of J. A. Bidg way, at their summer home on Car man's bay, Minnetonka. Miss Bidg way was cleaning some material in one of the rooms, when the liquid she was using exploded. She rushed down stairs with her- clothing on fire. Her sister picked up a large rug from the floor and succeeded in extinguishing the flames. The explosion was a ter rific one, and blew off part of the roof: In a moment's time the room was ablaze, but the courage and pluck of the women in the family prevented a conflagration. Many Matches Burned. A carload of matches, s^id to contain 100,000,000 6ticks, were ignited in some way, and the car and contents were to tally destroyed, causing a loss of 93,» 600.

Most readers will ask: "What i» ai cavy?" He is a sort of second cousin to the guinea pig, and his sole mis- „,» sion in life is that of pet. Utility is 1 not one of his attributes he cannot i- catch the nimble mouse like the, fam- ily cat nor guard the household, tike a faithful Towser. He is, however, I quite as useful as the fashionable toy dog, whose beauty is his' only t- recommendation. The cavy is fast growing in popu larity, and is preferred by many a women to the frolicsome kitten. As child's companion he stands un rivaled, from the fact that he bears neglect with equanimity and is easier to rear than a blooded dog or cat. The finer kinds are exquisite little playthings. There are several dis tinct varieties the English, which are the best known, may be classed among the smooth coated animals their hair is short and glossy, and is easily kept clean. They come in sev eral color combinations, among which black and white and red and white are the most usual. .The tri colored, or 'tortoise shell, cavy in red, white and black-is much in de mand. To be correct, the color should be laid on in distinct patches and not mottled. The self-colored species in lustrous black jjr red are extremely attractive the white ones are more common. The Peruvian, breed is so different from the English that one would scarcely recognize it as belonging to the same family. They have a coat as sleek and fine as spun silk, and their abundant manes trail upon the ground and fall in a fluffy fringe .over their heads and faces. In fact, the Peruvian cavy reminds one of an ex tremely diminutive Yorkshire terrier, and is quite as pretty. Mixed color ings are the rule white is the only solid color, and the pure white ones have lovely rose pink eyes and deli cate pink paws they are, in fact, the albinos of the race. The Abyssinian cavy Is a strange looking little beast by reason of the curious growth of his hair, which is distributed in distinct bunches or ro settes over hi3 diminutive body it is as rough and wiry as that of a Scotch terrier, and is white, red or in broken col-oring. The Angora is different again, and is distinguished from the Peruvian by its long straight hair and clean head free of furnishings. The long-haired cavy has a curious way of curling himself up when he goes to sleep, looking for all the world like a ball of floss silk. He is, how ever, instinct with life when awake. The cavy is not exacting as to his bed and board he is quite content with a box on the lawn, or a lodging in the barn, and wilf nibble such kitchen refuse as the parings of vegetables .and fruit he will also eat milk and bread he is inordinately fond of bananas and apples, which may be giv'en him occasionally as des sert. The cavy cuts a number of amusing antics, and is a never failing source of amusement in a household where there are children he expresses his appreciation by twittering like a ca nary or whistling like a mocking bird. Dealers declare that there is a fast growing demand for these cunning little creatures, which have fast coma into fashion. 8MB' Retort Silenced Rim.
