the tobacco grown on the Golden Tobacco
Belt of North Carolina Is the most delic

thau Turkish , more fragrant than Havana ,
freer from nitrates and nicotine than any

praises and the habitual smoker demands.
The very choicest tobacco grown

N. Y. Journal.
A scene on the stage in the Cosmopoli
tan Theatre ycstordny iiftoriioon was one
formed of it confusion of daubed scenery ,
ropes , pulleys , carpenters , painters and n
Itfiiulsomo youiif , ' Inily.
"ilisa Blftokburn ? "
A pair of deep blue oycs looked away
from a huge coimti action that rcsemblud
n tiend-inill , nnd which is cupppsud to
resoinblo n wixterfnll when revolving , nnd
gnvo n chnrm to the reply , which \vns ;
"That is my name , air. Yes , I nm the
lessee of this theatre and hope to produce
on Monday evening a grand spectacular
drama entitled 'On the Yellowstone. '
Wo will endeavor to reproduce the gey
sers and canyon fnl s and represent ns
nearly aa possible the beautiful Yellowstone -
stone Valley. "
Miss Blackburn is a tall daughter of
California , with dark complexion and
red cheeks nnd the general nir of solf-pos-
session born to girls of that clime. She
wna attired in quiet cashmere dross and
sealskin sacque. On her head was a
jaunty broad-brimmed black hut trimmed
with u long ostrich plutiiu surrounding
the brim and drooping down the buck ,
nnd from beneath it obtruded n roguish
cluster of crispy brown bangs.
' 'How do you expect to produce the
geysers ? " Wufl asked of the fair lessee aa
aho chatted away lightheartedly about the
prosi.ccts of her piny.
"NVo'vo got Homo pulverized fish-scales
0 shoot out of a funnel , " broke in the
urull' voice of oneof the untidy gentlemen
vrho wielded n stick of bristles.
"Nonsense , " said Miss Blackburn ,
stamping her slender foot upon the lloor.
"Wo have n quantity of what is called
snow powder. It is pulverized mica and
will bo prurod into a funnel in the lloor
of the stage and forced Into the air by a
tank of compressed nirfrom beneath.
When the calcium lights are thrown on
this white fouutain , the oflbct will be very
real and , I think , pretty. "
"Dye sou that washing machine o\vr
thoro'i" again interrupted the grufl'voice. .
"That big thing with the crank handles ,
1 mean. That is tc > bo the great 'Old
Faithful' waterfall. "
Mr. Dovcrna , ono of the scenic artists ,
was subjected by n good-natured retort
Irom hia fair overseer , and she continued
that the fdlls would bo represented by a
revolving scene. The water olTuct will all
ba produced by the action of lights on the
wooden wheels , and the foam at the base
of the fall will bo created by an explosion
of ctoam that will shoot up through jets
in the floor.
"Tho whole stugo is a not work of rub
ber hose for conducting the steam , "
continued M s Blackburn. "Tho falls
will bo continued across the stag oand an
upper fall will bn realistically produced
at the rear of the largo ono , so that if
you had over visited the Yellowstone , I
am sure when you witness our production
of the niece of scenery you would give it
credit at least for its novelty , if not for
realism. Wo have been at great expense
for several weeks to elaborate this play ,
and the spectacle , aside- from the play ,
which is an excellent one , ill bo some
thing now to Now York. "
"How did you como to go into the the
atrical business , Miss Blackburn ! "
"Did you ever hear of Judge Black
burn , of San Francisco ? He was iny
father , and when ho died I was thrown
upon my own resources and went upon
the stage. 1 have appeared as Rosalind ,
Leah , and such characters. This play
wao written by Mr. Daggott , of The Vir
ginia City Enterprise , who was one of a
party of us on a tour through the western
scenic regions. "
"Suppose 'Oa the Yellowstone' proves
unpopular , what will you do then ? "
"Oh , I have no fear of that. When
once it has a start I think it will win
favor. Besides I have lots of money and
I shall get up another spectacular drama
which will have for its chief feature an
exhibition of the wonderful Gorman
mistfl. "
"On the Yellowstone" is founded on
fact , the character of Nancy Jane Higgins -
gins , taken by Miss Blackburn , being the
heroine. The capture by Indians of Mrs.
Kelly who now holds a lifp position in
Washington and her thrilling adven
tures are the principal events that will bo
portrayed. Tim heroine becoming infat
uated with the husband of the person
who impersonates Mra. Kelly , saves him
from death in going over the falls , tind
finally to her : irott ; Burrntv succeeds iu re
turning hh wife to him.
"This is my first iipacarnnoo in New
York , " concluded the vivacious young
lady , "and I shall endeavor to provo that
the west cnn produce something for the
ontcrtaiiiiiii-nt of the metropolis. I only
fear the critics. "

one's purse can buy ; and at the eamo
time a considerable of n show can bo
made with a moderate expenditure if
shrewd taslo bo employed. Oddity of
shape will often help cheap stuff to a fair
degree of distinction. The now jackets
are frequently very jaunty. They are
made of heavy Indian cloth in many
shades of brown and dull red ,
trimmed with bands of Astrakixn
of a deeper hue. Jorspys of
very heavy wool are trimmed with long
haired furs , so that they have none of the
tight , night-shirt look of the originalnnd
tints metamorphosed are pretty on a good
figure. Regular stockinet Jrraoy cloth is
worn on the direct , but the cfl'ect for cold
weather is not commendable , unless the
trimming bo lavishand warm-looking.
A novel opera wrap is the Chinese cloak ,
and it may botprn by daylight for car-
ringo uao in making calls. It is made of
cream-white Chinese silk , with hand-em-
broidered hedge roses strowi all over the
soft ground. Inside , the lining is palo
pluah the shndo of the llou'OM. The
length is ample for enclosing the entire
figure , and the full Chinese sloovcs make
it easy to got into and out of. The light
ness of color is paliatnd by the afco and
softness , which combine to render the
wearer warm in appearance.
This being the titno ot wraps , it is also
ono of mucli uncertainty as to the figures
which they envolop. When a bulky wo
man is seen on the street with ancestor-
ior of irregular folds and draperies the
observer can't toll how much of it is hu
man and how much garniture. It may
bo a Blonder woman with a great deal of
garment , or a plumnono with only a thin
simulation of heavy"covering. It is now ,
moro than at any Reason of the year , pos-
Btblu to gnidimto one's outlines. By the
way , I had a letter lately asking just how
thick a woman ought to be in proportion
to her length. Of course a very young
girl may becomingly bo thinner than n
million , but T think I have been about
right in making up the following table.

If you take that for a standard consider
also your configuration. If you are
womanly in shupo that ia to say , if your
lines are distinctly curved by your frame
work of bonea as well as by ilosh , you do
not need quite so much weight for your
hoighAs though you wcro of the straight-
order. In outdoor
up-and-down selecting an
door garment you ought to cheese with
reference to what kind of a basis your
form provides for the proposed cloak or
wiup. It isn't necessary to reveal your
knowledge to anybody oho than your
maker I mean your dressmaker but it
is a fact that tlio proper study of woman
is woman , the particular subject bo-
j herself , with a view to artistic im
provement.
Charlotte Corday cloaks are piuticulaily
adaptable to traveling , and are in especial
voguu among the actressoa of combina
tions , who aim at a striking effect upon
the rural observer without delay. They
urs made of golden fawn-colored cash
mere , and lined with Venetian red silk ,
which should invariably bo displayed by
flapping open the front corners. The
outsides are trimmed , ofteii in eccentric
patterns , with bands of natural beaver ,
silver fox , or marten , and there may bo
a cap , collar , and muff to match. Thus
wrapped , the merest walking lady of a
barn-storming party is moro gorgeous
than Salvini in his remarkable ulster.
The redingote ia still popular , and it has
the advantage of comfort and simplic
ty."Wait
"Wait till I change my wrap , " said a
friend , "and I'll walk down street with
you. "
"But I'm in a hurry , " I objected ;
"what's the matter with the ono you'vo
got on ? "
It was a beautiful affair of embossed
velvet and fur.
"I believe in dressing suitable for ev
ery occasion , " she replied ; "I am now
going to call on several poor families
who have applied to our church for help.
It is my opinion that a redingote is the
only proper garment to pay charity visits
in. "
So I had to wait for the redingote to
bo donned. Anyhow , it was u neat and
becoming thing , and I suppose alto know
it. It was long , and had a looao girdle
round the ivaist , The material was dark
brown , and n piece of velvet to match
was Baton the top , like the yoka of a ,
French pcnaant'u frock.
While youii women adhere a great
deal to thn rcdin < ; oto for unceremonious
wear , the poliseo ia in greater favor with
middle-aged poreoua. Long vixites hnvo
sleeves forming pr.rt of the back , and nro
seldom made to fit snuggly. Fur ir-
montfl present nothing new , but the
anomaly continues that , while cloth wxapa
are no short behind in many of the
styles , all fur ones are exceedingly-long"
The reason for the did'eronco is fhia :
Some women , when the fashion of very
long soaliikins came in , put ull tlio-money
they could npii.ro into such au all-covering
garment , knowing that they could with
impunity wuar any cheap old rags'uudor '
it when on the promenade. This wa an
imposition which wealthy ladies didn't
like to bo suspected of , and BO they
encourage the bob-tailing of cloth wraps
BO as to show the -fuiory of their dresa-
skirK Tfco long sealskin coats of the
NowinarkwL style are mistakes , and even
in cloth they never can have more tLnn
a very limited favor. They uro ouly
united to slender figuroa , and tro decided
obstacles to the lifting of dresses fr m
behind , a nacoasity frequently in croaaiug
streets or descending steps , even when
the dregs ia walking length. They nru
tint suitable for visiting , but only far
driving , as they can not readily bo takoa

the neck and oleoves. The fashionable
garment is the lotig coat , shaped liL-o ati
overcoat and made of the richest materi
als -Bilk plush , aealnkiua , and Lyons vel
vet , trimmed with fur. The fineot coats

vet cloth couU in a gray shade have Iwou
made , lined with satin and bordered with
chinchilla ; but chinchilla in not a. fur thst
is now very largely used. Distin
guished-looking coats nro mousn-
colored velveteen , lined with
with uuilted satin surah nnd trimmed
with ottwr , the collars of otter , nnd mmTa
and totjues irmdo of velveteen trimmed
to match. Some long palotota are nd-
mirably shaped. Picture quoucs h the
chief clmr.ictcrLbtJo in the season's wraps ,
and , ui a matter of course , a good many
_ women are nofc satisfied until they have
jgono to the voryo of flbsurdity in otyle of
colon. Some of the guy parmonla in
tended for opera cloaks are boldly worn
in the street. Ono young woman , nnd
perfectly respectable , too , promenades
Broadway in a brignt red envelope with
Turkoman stripes , looking like a section
from a circus procession. She has been
well brought up , the has taken many and
many a lesson in nrt , oho has all her life
boon accustomed to nice society ; and
with all these advantages she doesn't
know any better than to array herself
in a nw.nor which makes folks
turn round to giggle at the eight.
Besides the scarlet warp , the displays a
red jockey cap , pulled down boy fashion
nearly to her oars , while the small
amount of hair in view is cropped closo.
The right way to treat those caps is to
slightly feminize the oflbct by setting
thorn far back on the head , so that the
little poker of a visor , instead of shading
the eyes , curves upward , and allows a
soft Linqtry bang or Hull'of curls to
show. There is nothing more captiva
ting in the toilet of a neat , gentle girl
than something stolen from men's
fashions , and if she may taste she will in
some way unsex it , so that ouly ononah
masculinity is left for cutcnoss. Wo
may never put on trousers , but depend
upon it that if wo do wo will in noino
way render tncm captivating trim them
with lace , or something of tha' , sort.

Iivo Farmer * Sl/.o Eauh Otlior Up ,
A rustic looking man sat in the smok
ing-car of the Omaha train bound for
Chicago the other night , when another
rural looking person c > uno in.
. "Is this seat taken1'asked ? the new
comer.
"No , sir ; sit right down , tit right
down , " said the other , making room next
him.
him.Soon
Soon the two old farmers were in con
versation.
"Where arc you from ? "
"I Iivo near Buda. Whore do you
hail from ? "
"I'm a pretty near neighbor of yours ;
I live near Kovrancu. "
"Farming ! "
"Yes. Are you ? "
"Yes ; farming and stock. "
"Been to town with stock ? "
"Yos ; brought up : i hundred head of
steers. "
" 1 brought hoga. "
And BO the conversation ran on until
just before the train reached Mcndota ,
and the two old farmers were right ,
well acquainted. Presently another
man who looked like a merchant came in
ana was surprised to BOO ono of the old
farmers.
"Well , well , well , " said the now man.
"I'm glad to see you ; maybe you can help
mo out of a littla embarrassing trouble.
I want to pay a man a little bill on the
train before I got ofl at Mcndota , and 1
haven't inonny enough. If you will lot
mo have $ ! 100 on my check I'll bo very
much obliged. "
"Certainly , I'm glad to do it , " and out
came the farmer's pockotbook. But , alas ,
ho only had $10 in small bills an J a beau
tiful crisp § 500 bill.
"You'ro perfectly welcome to the 640
if that'll help you out , or to the § 500 bill
if you can got it broke. "
"Perhaps your friend can help us out ;
the § 10 will hardly answer , " said the
merchant , and then ho apologized for
making so much trouble.
"Well , " softly said the other farmer ,
who until now had been silently looking
on , "I can't change a S500 bill , but I can
give you another ono for it , and I think it
came out of of the aamo batch , and was
printed on the 8:11110 : press. "
And turning to the other old farmer ho
added : "If your partner hadn't como just
us ho did mine would have been hers m n
minute. I've boon getting ready to work
.you on the ' same game ever since wo left
Chicago. "
At Mondota four very much disgusted
confidence men stopped oil' the tram and
stood around in the cold waiting for n
train returning to Chicago. '
Petroleum at Baku on the Caspian
W. Benjamin , U. 8. Charge at Ttlienn , In The Han-
liatUu far February.
Around the old city built by the Per
sians a now city has grown up ; the'total '
population is now upward of 40,000. Fif
teen years ago Baku was.in point of fact ,
a Persian walled town , although under
Russian rule. To-day it la a largo and
rapidly growing European city , with a
highly important commerce. What has
done this ! The answer is , petroleum ?
From the tinio of Herodotus it has boon
( mown that Uro shores of the Caspian
abounded in naphtha , bitumen , and in-
llammablo oil. But it does not seem to
hnvo occurred to any ono to make it avail
able for commerce , until after ita possi
bilities had been tested by the develop
ment of the coal-oil trade of tlio United
States. Theui is uhvays a first time. The
time for { Saku arrived with the governor
who WISH cent there fifteen * years
ago. To him occurred the idea
that in thit vast supply of petroleum ,
Rtiaaia possessed n mine of wealth ,
ditttinod U > rival the gold fields of Cali
fornia. The chief difficulty , from the
outsat , was not in obtaining the oil but
in refining it to the degree Y-hiru it
could irival the petroleum of America ,
It contains moro naphtha than the Amer
ican oil , and great effort has -been ex-
pondud in devising iniuuis to reo the oil
from this ingredient. Although as yet
not an pure as our petroleum , that of
Baku is at least sufficiently clear io make
it evident that unless our traders take
the gBoatoat proeautiona , Uussia is on the
point of winning a large part of our
markets for this very important article
of commerce. Lait year tlio erport of
petroleum from Baku ror shod the enor
mous cum of 815XK ( > , > 000. A largo fleet
of squtro rigged vessels is engaged in
transporting the conunorcoof Baku , which
ia also a station forsovorallHteaof steamers
