XII DEADLY CIGARETTE. The ill effects of cigarette smoking trpon boys and yonng men have long been "more or less dimly seen and understood, bat it has not been nntil lately that any very definite and direct attack npon the practice has been made. Becently some startling facts bearing upon the matter have been made pnblic and they deserve the attention of all interested in the welfare of boys and. yonng men. Major Houston of the United States marine corps made a report the other day concerning the medical examination of candidates for naval apprenticeships in which he made the remarkable revelation that between eighty and ninety per cent, of the juvenile applicants are physically disqualified on account of heart disease and similar ailments, induced by cigarette smoking.

A few days ago seven out of eight boys who were examined at the navy yard as candidates for the navy had heart trouble and all suffered from defective eyesight -era aeeennt of cigarette smoking. This revelation- has excited widespread interest, and the government officers at Washington have received numerous letters inquiring for further particulars. Medical Director Gibson has instituted an investigation into the subject, and is now examining the canes at the navy yard with great thoroughness. His inquiry has thus far more than borne out Major Houston's statement. Major Houston is said to regard the evil such a grave one that he will prepare for presentation to the next congress a bill making it an offense to sell cigarettes to boys under fifteen yeais of age.

Mr. N. L. Bishop, superintendent ofjthe public schools in Norwich, in this State, comes forward with some valuable testimony concerning this matter. Mr.

Bishop finds that cigarette smoking prevails to a deplorable extent among boys attending school in Norwich. He says that the boys who are addicted to this pernicious habit show such unmistakable evidence of the indulgence that he can pick ont the cigarette smokers at sight. The boys who smoke are dull in appearance, as if slightly stupefied by the fumes of the tobacco. They are also stupid in their mental work and fall behind in their studies. This testimony is especially valuable as showing the mental effect of smoking upon the boys, and is the result of wide and studious observation in the various departments of the schools.

In Newark, New Jersey, the pernicious practice of cigarette smoking has been sharply attacked and boys who indulge in it are expelled from school. This is severe, but perhaps it is justifiable. Probably the best way to diminish the evil is for parents to fully understand it and bring up their boys in the way they should go. EDITORIAL NOTES. The action of the county commissioners in raising license fees will be generally approved.

High license seems to be the most effective check to the evils of the rum traffic which has yet been discovered. The heavenly harmony which has long been connected with the New Haven braneh of the Democratic party is getting to be very noticeable. There is nothing more cheering than to see brethren dwelling together in unity. It is not the best time of the yer for fish stories, but occasionally one is told. For instance, near Marysville, California, there is a large gravel pit in which there are many fish and into which flows the refuse matter of a winery.

Ever since grape-crushing began this year the fish have been affected with drunkenness and come to the surface of the water, where the Chinamen take them in with rakes in great quantities. There seems to be a determination in Pennsylvania to have a general salary law for officials of all the counties and to put an end everywhere to the system of fees. A bill that was passed was by reason of an improper classification of counties declared unconstitutional by the Supreme court of the State and the reform was delayed. This eaused a temporary defeat of the salary movement in several important counties, but the Pennsyl-vanians anticipate success with the measure at the next session of the legislature. The progress made in Texas during the past fifteen years furnishes the press of that State good cause for rejoicing.

In 1870 the grand total of farm product values was placed at $49,000,000, since which time it has swelled to the enormous sum of 000. The yearly product of wheat has increased from 3,500,000 bushels in 1880 to 4,000,000 this year, the cotton from 500,000 to 1,250,000 bales. A corresponding or even greater increase is noted in the value of live stock, which now reaches the magnificent figure of $75,000,000. And there is still much room for growth in the State. At the recent French conference for the advancement of science some interesting ex periments were made on hysterical patients with drags which were not actually administered, but were placed at the back of pa tients' heads and were need without their knowledge.

Under these circumstances opium produced sleep, alcohol caused drunk enness and absinthe brought on paralysis of the legs. In women camphor gave rise to religious ecstasy, and in men convulsions; many drugs were employed and all of them gave their characteristic effects, though they were all contained in vials or wrapped in pa per. A study of the army list shows that every offictr above the rank of major served in the army during the rebellion. There are 235 majors, and of these 213 were in the army be. fore the last rebel force laid down its arms.

Of the 617 captains 475 were in the service before June 1, 1865. None of these officers can be mnch if any less than forty years old, and many of them are fifty or more. Under the present law, which makes retirement compulsory at 62 years, all the majors, with very few exceptions, and a large portion of the captains, will be retired within twelve years. The generals and colonels will be go. ing on the retired list very fast.

The Jones county calf case has cropped out again. Jones county is in Iowa, and eleven years ago in that county four calves belong ing to John Foreman were stolen. A man named Johnson about the same time bought four calves of one Potter of Green county. and said calves proved to be identical with the stolen property. The anti-horse-thief association thereupon prosecuted Johnson.

Johnson was acquitted upon his second trial, and retorted with suits against the members of the association individually, which suits have been tried five times, giving him a verdict every time. But in each case the ver dict has been set aside. The jury now upon the sixth trial have awarded Johnson $7,000, and it is reckoned that $30,000 would not cover all the costs in eleven years' litigation, which has ruined some of the parties involved. The first body will be incinerated in the Long Island crematory, at Fresh Pond, Long Island, sometime next week. The rules which are to regulate this crematory are in substance as follows: Application for incineration must be made at the New York office of the company by the person having charge of the body.

It must be accompanied by a physician's certificate stating the manner and cause of death. Every incineration must be attended by some relative of the deceased person or by some legal representative of relatives. An undertaker will be furnished by the company if desired. Bodies will be received at any part of the city and taken to the crematory at a cost of $10. It is not necessary that bodies should be dressed in spe-oial clothes for the process.

In all cases, when it is desired, religions ceremonies may be held at the crematory during incineration. Coffins must be removed soon after the incineration or they will be destroyed by the company. Xn case of contagious diseases they will always be destroyed. The incineration may be as private as. may be desired.

The ashes of the deceased person may be taken away in urns especially provided. Applications fer incineration must be made in writing and will be kept on file in the office. GHOSTLY.

Boston Gazette. JEANNE LORETTE, Tbe Woman Who murdered Her Courtly Defrayer, H. Sajturada. The Hagrue Special to Boston Herald. The trial of Jeanne Marie Lorette for the wilful murder of her lover, M.

Sakurada the late Japanese Charge d' Affaires for Belgium and the Netherlands, at Rotterdam six months ago, has for the last two days filled the sleepy but pleasant little town with the nearest approach to excitement of which the Dutch are capable. The circumstances of the case were interesting enough to quicken the pulse of the most phlegmatic. The mur deress, self -accused, is a young unfortunate aud beaut if ul victim. The Japanese Charge d' Affaires was a local lion, and the whole affair had a roman tic charm, common enough in France, Spain or Italy, but rare in Holland. Murder eases are not tried by a jury in tnis country, Dut by judges.

Possibly justice is not much the loser oy tnis system. xne unminai court was crowded on both days of the trial. Several ministers, the British ambassador and a number of foreign journalists occupied seats, while the body of halt tne court was niiea witn soiia burghers and peasants, chiefly women, whose snow-white caps and silver head-gear lent picturesqueness to the scene. There was a buzz of curiosity as the prisoner entered. Her loveliness far exceeded expectation and won sympathy from every spectator.

Jeanne Lorette is barely twenty years of age. She is tall and graceful, with speaking eyes, long auburn locks and a sweet little mouth. She was dressed in black, with a shawl carelessly crossed over her shoulders. A large felt hat and mauve feathors complete her costume. As she stood in the dock with tears in her eyes she looked oharming enough to soften the heart of the sternest magistrate.

She answered the questions put to her without bravado or affectioa, making no attempt to play martyr, and evidently feeling the shame and horror of her position acutely. She ad mitted that before she became Sakurada's mistress she had been beguiled by an old roue at eiehteen. She met Sakurada at Brussels and. not knowine he had a wife and family in Japan, followed him to the Hague. M.

Suka-rada seems for a time to have been passion ately attached to his conquest, but gradually his ardor cooled, and Jeanne Lorette's life became so unbearable that she often threat ened to commit suicide, and once actually wrote to a physician asking how she could onen an arterv. About this time she told a friend she "had enough of that devil of a Japanese." Separation was eventually agreed npon, but a few days after Jeanne repented at having consented to it, burst into the Jaoanese legation, and avowed that if Saku rada did not marry her she would kill her self. On her return home she got ont a re volver, set her affairs in order and made her will. In this document she wrote: "My sufferings are too much for me, my position too false. I should have to separate from Sakurada, the man whom I regarded as my husband.

Fourteen months ago I loathed him. but for six months past I have been possess ed by a strange love for this false, hypocritical Japanese a love which will kill me, Life without him will De agony; witn mm it is hell." The next day Jeanne again called on the embassy, and was turned away. Fren zied with rage she bought a dagger. Her plans had been changed. She was now bent on vengeance, though she had abandoned all ideas of suicide.

A week after, when Saku rada left the Hague, she followed him, and for a moment the lovers were reconciled "Our meeting was affectionate," said the prisoner. That night she slept with a dag ger and revolver under her pillow. In the morning she made a last appeal to Sakurada, and declared that, unless he promised to wed her, she would kill him. He refused, and Jeanne, who declares she was terribly excited, drew the revolver out and shot him in bed. He died the same evening.

When his assassin saw him lifeless she went into hys terics and shrieked: Oh! wretch that 1 am! Pity! pity! I have killed him!" Both before and after her arrest she attempted suicide, but without success. A dramatic scene occurred in court when the prisoner had ended her story. The pub lic prosecutor produced a revolver. At sight of the weapon Jeanne uttered a loud cry. threw up her arms and fell fainting and for some minutes tne proceedings were inter rupted.

When the prisoner recovered a num ber of witness's were called. Several declared that Sakurada had promised to marrv her. while others had proved that she had inherit ed epilepsy Horn Her mother, and a doctor testified that her mind had been affected by a criminal assault in childhood. The public prosecutor, taking all this into consideration, did not press for capital punishment, but urged the court to give her ten years' penal seivitude. The prisoner's counsel, in a moving speech, pleaded irresponsibility.

His client, he said, denied premeditation, and he reminded the court that it had become a fashion for women to avenge their own wrongs All the judges, moved by the eloquent appeal to their clemency, like the characteristic Dutchman, declared they would not be hurried into deciding the case and postponed the verdict till Thursday. The crowd went home disappointed and Jeanne Lorette went back to her cell. MliDOHA 6RTIIES. The Rare Reanty Who Broke Her Betrothals To ITIarry Sam Ward. Ben: Perlev Poore in Boston Budget.

Sam Ward, afterwards the king of the lobby here, was, when a young man, the leading gallant of New York city. He soon made a conquest of Miss Astor, the daughter of the then greatest millionaire on the continent, and married her. Mrs. Ward died very soon after marriage, and Sam again appeared npon the town in the new role of a young, gay and rich widower. At this time the greatest beauty of the South, perhaps of the whole continent, Medora Grymes, made her debut in New York society.

The figure, neck and arms of Medora Grymes were so faultlessly perfect -taatghe was constantly sought for by artists and solicited by friends to have them copied, both on canvas and in marble. Her eyes were of a dark olive; as rare as it is beautiful men appreciate it large, and when in repose had a dreamy expression, which was probably owing to the unusual length of her eyelashes; the face was oval; the complexion a rich olive, the eyebrows somewhat heavy, but so perfect in their outlines and arch that none others would have seemed in keeping. Her head was of a shape that she could wear her hair in any style, and it- was hard to tell which was the most becoming. She sometimes appeared with it worn in the antique Grecian fashion, simply brushed back over her ears and braided in a simple knot behind, the most trying style in which it can be worn. Bat she was always the admiration of the men, too often the envy of the women.

A Creole by birth, the daughter of the celebrated lawyer, John R. Grymes of New Orleens, she inherited from him a taste for study, and she soon became mistress of the French, Spanish aud Latin languages. At a later period of her life, while educating her sons in Germany, she acquired a knowledge of the language of that country. From her mother she inherited a vivacity and liveliness of to a quickness of apprehension which was attracted by anything bizarre or humorous, and caused many a scintillation of wit, which, however pungent, never wounded. Her musical education was carefully attended to and she retained all her skill and powers during her whole life.

Her voice was remarkably fine and proud as she undoubtedly was of her arm Bhe made the study of the harp a specialty and often used it as an accompaniment. It was not long before it was announced that Miss Grymes wrs engaged to a young, handsome and rich Frenchman, bearing a title, though a member of a wealthy house in Paris, of which he was the representative in New York, and it was an accepted fact by the friends of both parties that such was the case. At this period Sam Ward appeared upon the boards and soon became an acknowledged vassal of the peerless beauty. He set himselt to work to win her. For his rival or his rival's rights he had no consideration.

"All is fair," quoth Sam, "in love and war." It was not long before the earnest wooing of the handsome lover made its impression. The Frenchman was cool, rather phlegmatic and more used to being sought for than to seek. He made his advances in a cool, business-like way, and considering the whole matter arranged as he would have it, regarded it as unnecessary to give vent to any ardent expressions of his affection. Sam, meanwhile, was whispering soft flatteries into the ears that drank in all their sweetness. Every morning, on rising.

the first thing put into her hands was a bunch of violets accompanied by a note from her admirer. What those notes contained we can only imagine, but "Uncle Sam" was always celebrated for nis skill in getting up telling little letters upon love matters, dinners, invitations, business or otherwise. The end came, the engagement was broken so was the Frenchman heart. He went to France to die, and the fair Medora became the second wife of Samuel Ward, the once recognized "king of the lobby," and perhaps the most accomplished and popular man of his dav. Only those who have put his friend ship to the test know of his unfailing devo tion to his friends; no matter how dark the day or doll the path they might be traveling, Sam was always on hand with a cheering word and a kindly smile and, if need be, something more substantial.

Many a wreck has been saved, many a peril averted and many a shattered fortune redeemed by Sam ard generosity. Some years since and during the most daz zling period of the empire, Mrs. Ward went to tor tne purpose ot educating her two sons. For a period in Paris she was a conspicuous feature of all the court entertainments and was an especial favorite with both Napoleon III. and Eugene.

While npon the eve of her departure for this country she suddenly sickened and after a short illness died. Taken altogether, she was probably the most brilliant woman of her age that America has ever produced. Richard Coyle, of Stonington, was arrested on Saturday for the murder cf his wife in Westerly. He fired at her as she was coming out of the mill where she worked and the bullet took effect near her right eye. She turned and ran, when he fired a second shot which struck her in the back.

She fell and Coyle went to her, took her in his lap and shot himself in the neck. Mrs. Coyle died in a few minutes. When Coyle was arrested he expressed no regret for killing his wife, but said he was sorry he had not finished himself. He tried to choke himself and then tried to tear open the wound in his neck.

It is said that the cause of the shooting was a quarrel which was based practically on Mrs. Coyle's unwillingness to support her husband in idleness.
