Sometimes he pays it; sometimes he don’t, especially if he is ac quainted with DILLON, who only asks 30 cent®, and then makes a good piofit on the same identical goods. It is often asked me by the merchants why I cut prices, ami all kinds of arguments are used to induce me to quit it.

Jay Gould Confines Himself to Four Cigars a Day-Rockefeller Pre fers Mild Ones—A Luxury Enjoyed by All. Evening Post Bvreau, | 200 West 47th St. | New York, Aug 21.—The million aires of this city, with hardly an ex ception, are smokers. It is only na tural that mtn who are constantly engaged in the rush and excitement incident to vast financial schemes should find tobacco restful to their nerves. Jay Gould is a moderate smoker and he smokes the - best brands of cigars. Four cigars a day are his limit. Mr. Gould usually buys his cigars at the stand in the Windsor Hotel. He smokes .Henry Clays and he pays 25 cents apiece for them. When Mr. Gould was so ill a yeai ago Dr. Munn told him he must be temper ate in the use of tobacco, and he re lated a little story to impress Mr. Gould. “I knew a mau,” said Dr. Munn, ‘•who recently died at the age of 98. He was the most perfect man physi cally 1 ever saw. He had been a smoker from the age of 10 years. Had it not been for that I believe be would have lived to be over a cen tury old.” ‘ If he hail started to smoke when he was 5 years old,” replied Mr. Gould, laughingly, “he might have lived to.be 110.” However, he obeyed bis physician and he has never since smoked to excess- John D. Rockfeller likes to puff' ! away on a cigar after dinner. He fnicies a very mild brand, usually La Liberador, which are sold for 10 cents each. Mr. Rock feller never smokes in business hours. He is a good billiard player, and his smoking is generally pursued while he plays that artistic game. Commodore Elbridge T. Gerry is an excellent judge of a-bigar, and he smokes a good many of them. A pleasant feature of life oti Mr. Gerry’s yatch is the cigars which are handed around after dinner. They are of various brands, to suit all tastes. The commodore’s favorite is La Rosa, an I he pays $25 a box for th< tn. There are 100 cigars in a box. Collis P. Huntington is an infre quent smoker, and one brand is as good as another to him. lie buys the best, however. One day recently Mr. Huntirgton went into a Broad way cigar store and called for a Henry Clay cigar. lie threw down a quarter and lighted the cigar MjJiich the dealer handed him. It was a Henry Clews, a brand which is sold for 5 cents each, and is named after the popular banker, but Mr. Huntington never detected the mis take. Mr. Clews smokes the brand that is called after him. He is a moder ate smoker. “My cigars do not cost me over 30 cents a day,” he says. “When I was a young man and poorer, 1 used to smoke more and pay higher for them.” Mr. IL Victor Newcomb is one of the few millionaires who smokes cigarettes. He says that he has ' tried on numberless occasions to ' smoke cigars, but that they always prove too powerful for him. and he is forced back upon cigarettes. Mr. Newcomb's favorite brand is the Special Flavor. He smokes on an average ten cigarettes a day and be pays 15 cents a package for them. As there are twenty cigarettes in each package Mr. Newcomb's smok ing bill amounts to only seven and one half cents a day. .lames R. Keene, who is generally believed to be again a millionaire, is an inveterate smoker. He gets away with a dozen cigars a day easily. Mr. Keene is an exceedingly nerv ous man. and he finds that smoking soothes him. He paces up and down broker Sam Booc'»ck'* <4llce I for hours ut u time pulling away ut a' j elgsr. Mr. Keene smokes the Gin. it,, s I cigar that costs 20 cents mil is i pretty strong. Ilia smoking bill' j averages $2.50 per day. Itai.kioii, | SEASIDE COLLEGE. The Faculty of Brunswick's Newly Organized Female Seminary. The President takes pleasure in announcing to the citizens of Bruns wick that arrangements are now ■complete for the opening of Seaside College on Monday, September 29. The faculty of file college will be organized as follows: S. C. Caldwell, A. M , President. Natural science, metaphysics and higher mathematics. Mrs. S. C. Caldwell, lady princi pal. Rev. J. M. M.

To the parents of Brunswick the establishment and maintainancc of such an institution is a matter of prime importance. Upon their hearty co operation and support its very existence will depend. That co operation and support is respect fully solicited. Circulars of information can be obtained at the sto.e of 11. T. Dunn ' & Son, or at the college. LOADED TO THE MUZZLE. With a Selection of Clothing and Furnishinge- Second to None. That will be the situation at the popular Cincinnati Clothing House in about two weeks. Mr. A. S. Berlack, Mr. Apte’s popular and wide-ajvake right hand man, received this morning, a letter from his chief that he was now on his way back to Brunswick. Mr. Apte goes on to say that he has made the largest and best selec tion that could possibly be made, and that he is perfectly willing to compare the Stock he will have to that of any other merchant in the city. Being a clothier and furnisher ol long experience and good judgement! Mr. Apte certainly knows what it tak s to please the people. His many patrons will await the opening of his new stock wjth in terest. In the meantime call around and see Barlock, he is always on hand and can perhaps show you some thing you want. Drunk On The Street. Hon. John Barleycorn is a pugilist of great reputation, and a person he can’t knock out is not worth knock ing out at all. Mr. Barleycorn has just knocked Peter Jack son,the great Australian negro out with case. Last night he got in his work again. This time he did not respect s-x or color. Sue Pidgeon, Carry Dunlap and Grade Smith had a lively tussle with the smasher last night at very “unseasonable” hours, and as usual, they lost the fight. They were knocked so silly as to be unable to reach home. The city, however, provides places for such characters, and they were soon taken in charge by officer W. A. Clark and incarcer ated in that “home for the triendless” where they will remain until the cases agains^them can be considered by “his honor” judge Whitfield, Saturday morning. ■ - - A Nice Cottage Wanted.

The Method of Educating Girls Futher Discussed. k Another Lady Interviewed.-What She Has to Say.—A New Idea Suggested. -At What Age a Girl Should Marry. The articles now being published on the subject of a girl’s education are being read with great interest. Mothers are always interested in the welfare of their daughters and they are particularly interested in the articles. Young ladies are also interested to a great extent, as they wish to profit by the experience of their mothers. The Post does not desire to pass any mother by, who wishes to ex press her views on this all-import ant question, and if there is any lady who wishes to give her views she will confer a favor upon the education editor of The Post, by sending her suggestions to him. A priminent lady, the wife ol a prosperous merchant of this city, was called upon and asked to give her views on the subject. She re plied:—“l have been reading the articles published in the Post with much interest, and I feel that this question should have been brooched long ago. I am glad to note that the question is being agitated every where, all over the union. Mothers can not be too well informed on this great question. The more one thinks about it the more profound it becomes. “1 have one daughter who is in her teens. Ido not consider her of suf ticiant age to consider matrimony. A young lady should not marry be fore she is twenty-one years of sge. A young man is not considered of sufficient discretion to have a choice in the selection of rulers over our country until they, have .u rived at that age and the woman being the weaker of the 4 wo should have as much discretion to use in the selec-’ tion of a husband, that is supposed to stand for life, as a young man must have before be can have a voice and vojte in an election. The law is very liberal and yet, not withstand ing its liberality, it does not con I aider a young lady of sufficient fixed ness of purpose to choose a husband until fifteen years of age. “Youth is full of happiness and it should not be marred by marriage until a person has become settled. Then they- understand the responsi bility oi married life and what is ex pected of them. Many girls marry early; they think they love theyoung man and he probably :s so foolish as to believe that her love is genuite. They marry and as a natural conse quence of a hasty match find only too soon that, they were mistaken. Then they see their folly and two lives are forever wrecked on the shoals of haste. “A girl should have a thorough training in household duties. She , should be taught that “cleanliness is next to godliness” and that to make herself attractive, which she should always do. she must always appear , neit and tidy. It is a very disgrace ful sight to see a young girl loung ing around a house with a soiled wrapper on. “She should have as complete ed ( ucationas her circumstances would permit of. The cariculum can’t be improved to a great .extent I dont , think. A young lady should take a business course at some reputable school whether she is an heiress or not. “As I said before, a young lady , should be al least twenty one years of age before considering the ques tion of marriage. But it is a great mistake for a girl of any age to mar ry a man to reform him. Ninety nine times out of a hundred he goes lower into degradation anil at last becomes an outcast from society. He is ostracized by all his former asso ciatesandyet by her. maritid vows she must remain with iiin., honor, uphold ami cherish him ami be shunned by all the companions of her youth. “I think u young hijiy should ex <*rei»u greut care in selecting a Ims I baud.

O course, if he is wealthy they canaf ford many luxuries not to be ob tained by those of more limitec means. The old adage of “uneasy rests the head that wears a crown’ will apply to the wealthy as well as kingsand Jemperors. Marry an hon orable man that you can really love and that loves you ami “married life wiil be a success.” OUR GAS SUPPLY. The Merchants Say it is Very Limi ted and They Kick. For ' several days complaints poured into the office of The Post against the insufficiency of the gas supply. They say they cant have enough gas to last until 7 o'clocx and they proceed to complain in the usual way, that is by kicking, and some of the kicks are bard. A Post reporter called on some of the hard est kickers to investigate the gas dearth. Here is what they say: Mr. Henry T. Dunn: “We have been compelled to light lamps to see how to transact’our business for the past ten days. We think it an cut rage to be imposed upon in any such away. We may light tile gas at five o'clock and by six we have to light our lamps to see. The gas light is never strong enough to see to read by. However, lamps are selling rap idly. 1 have sold lamps to nearly every man in the <xity that uses gas. Mr. J. T. Palmer, the shoe mer chant, was next seen. He said : “It is an outrage to be imposed upon us we have for the last week by the gas company We were compelled to buy larjps and oil to illuminate our establishment, The gi i service has been a humbug for eight months. I am in for a boycott; 1 think it would have some effect lending to give better service.” Mr. Kaiser, the dry goods dealer was next seen 1 He replied: “1 do not use gas at all now. It is so very uncertain a mau of business cun not put any dependence in it at all. It usually goes out when .you need it must.” Mr. W. F. Doerflinger, the jeweler, said: I am thoroughly disgusted with anything called gas sewer. We have had no gas service for twelve months ami it seems to be growing worse each day. S. M. Glogauer, the crockery mer chant, expressed the same views as those expressed by Mr. Doerflinger. Joe Hall, the almond eyed celestial who runs the restaurant on New castle street, was called upon. Joe speaks English retnarkabl well and with the peculiai-’twinkle of his eye, common to all Chinamen, said: 1 went to a large’expense when 1 came here two months ago and opened my restaurant, to put in gas fixtures, but 1 have never had anv decent light. I think when a man has to pay for a thing he should have value received, but you can’t get ii from the gas company. Only yester day I spent sl6 for lamps to light my dining room. I bought the lampsuf Mr. Dunn, and be told me his ms service was in a similiar con.litio-.i. We can’t have any light at all during the day, and none by night, except from lamps.” Several other Merchants were cal led upon ami all were using lamps or electric lights. They are heartily in favor of a gas boycott. The superintendent of the gas company was called upon and asked about the mutter. He said that their capacity was too limited to supply the city. He said, however, that their capacity would be increas ed this fall to meet the demand. It is probable that the boycott threat will be carried out. If it is a new company wilt probably be formed to manufacture our lights. Delayed Several Hours. The East Tennessee passenger train which was to arrive at 6:15 a. m. had not reached the city up to 1:30 p. m. The cause of the delay was a run <ll about twenty miles above Atlanta.
