E_ x Report says that the czarina has set bher face resolutely against cigaretteâ€" smoking by women. CUigaretteâ€"smokâ€" ing by ladies seems to be very much more common in Ewrope than in this country, and the fact that the czaring is so emphatically opposed to it indiâ€" cates that, in Russia at leasb, it must be rather prevalent. Of the few Amerâ€" ican ladies who smoke, the mejority will be found to have brought the habit back from Eirope, where ib is possible to form and practice it in very good society. Why women don‘t smoke s greab deal more then they do is a puzz ling question. If tobacco is as good a biing as the consumption of ib indicates, there is noâ€"obviors reason why men should have a monopoly of it. Perhaps women‘s indifference to it is ons more mign of their superioity, or possibly fashion, which has so much to answer for, has some things, and this among them, to its credit.â€"Aarper‘s B zar.

After a business career of sixteen years n Preston he discovered what he thought a more profitable field for his ambitious spirit, and forthwith he came upon the present site of Baden. The route of the Grand Truok had just then been surveyed. He at once shrewdly foresaw great opportunities in this then sparcely settled section for the promoâ€" ter of industrial enterprises. Once satisfied in his mind that it was a promisiog‘field for his plans he illustratâ€" ed his faith by purchasing two hunared acres of land, and as soon as the trailâ€" road was completed, laid out a large part of this land into village lots. He then built a fluur mill (cow operated by Mr. Peter Shirk). While it was not to be compared to the modern equipped establishment of toâ€"day, ib answered the purpose at that time and proved a profitablé venture for its founder. Farmers came in from great distance to have gristingâ€"done and to dispose of their wheat, grist® mills at that period not being quite as numerâ€" ous as they are now. Young Jacob did not possess the adâ€" vantage of an early education, but he was amply endowed with patiencs, honâ€" esty and energy, the all powerful levers that command success in all walks of life. He was a mere lad and did not anderstand a word of the prevailing language of his adopted country, and to cap the climax, was penniless, His firet position in the New World was in the office of & physician at Schenectady, N.Y., where he remained for seven years. But in the meantime he was preparing himself for greater achieveâ€" ments by frequently visiting the neighâ€" boring machine sbops and making himâ€" self familiar with the construction of machinery. It was some time in the year 1854, when no sign of & village existed and the surrounding country was yeb sparcely sethled, that Jacob Beck came to the neighborhood. Beck was one of those energetic and enterprising Gerâ€" mans who come to the New World with a firm determination to win life‘s battle for an honorable position among the industrial classes. No tempting bonuses awaited him as is generally the case in this age with enterprising corâ€" porations seeking industrial aggrandizs ment. _ He was the progeny of humble parents, the latter having been reduced to that position from one of efflaence and wealth in the Dukedom of Baden, Germany, by the aggresive policy of Napoleon, which bad plunged the Faderland into a disastrous war. > It was there that Baden‘s founder was born in 1815, In 1831 the family emigrated to America, landing in the city of New York. A short bime after the completion of the@ mill Mr. Beck established a foundâ€" ry. In the beginouing the former was on a small scale, but from time to time additions were made until the concern occupied nearly three sides of a tweâ€" acre square. . Sâ€"eam engines and generâ€" al mill machinery were manufactured, including the celebrated Corliss engine which was given the most special atâ€" tention. A large number of skilled mechanics were employed, and for many years Providence seemed to favor this man of marvelous energy with unceasâ€" ing prosperity. He took great interest in the growth and prosperity of the village he hbad created, and he was for many years one of its leadifAfp represor â€" tatives, But unfortunately in the course of time financial reverses overâ€" took him, and finally the vast concern which unaided and alone he had brought into existence, passed into othâ€" er hands. His misfortune was a serious blow to the village, but it did not seem to have weakened the energy of the victim, for now in the 82ad year of his age, he is proprietor of & large concern for the manufacture of oat ineal, corn meal, &c, in Detroit, Mich., and is epjoying & prosperous business. THE VILLAGE OF BAJ In writing a description of this classicly named village it will probably 7e qaite interesting to many who are now, and have been in the past, identiâ€" fied with it, to give a brief sketch of its founder? and a resume of its pionesr days. Wobile Baden has not made an uninterrupted advancement toward the cxtent of & city, ib is not to be classed as a commercial centre of secondary imâ€" portance. Its location, natural advantâ€" ages and the splendid agricultural secâ€" tion surrounding it are positive assurâ€" ances that ite real estate will never decline in value. Prior to the construction ‘of the Grand Trunk the village was known by the name of Weisenburg, named in hounor of an old batchslor who resided on the lob now cecupied by Mrs. John Wiler. But the name did not seem acceptable to Mr. Beck and he decided to cbhange ib, Among other names sugâ€" gested were Becksville and Baden. The latter was finally adopted, it being more classical and the namcâ€"sake of Bdecâ€"Badsn, the famous health resort of Germany, Mr. Beck‘s native town. The Livingstone Brothers came to the neighborhood & short time after the advent of Beck. Their coming hastened its further growth in populaâ€" tion and wealth, and it has been mainâ€" ly through their energy, enterprise and persaverence that the village toâ€"day is able to boast of one of the largest eil manufacturing concerns in the Dominâ€" The Chronicle‘s Corresponaent Takes a Reâ€" prospective Glanceâ€"Its Presert Importance as a Commercial Centre and gsome of its Leadâ€" ing Business Men, Io addition to its inexhaustible supâ€" ply of the purest quality of that among the most necessary elements of Nature ‘for the use of man, Baden is surround ed by a magnificont and fertile farming section. The soil is principally & rich clay loam, and large yields of wheast are snnually the result. The farms are on the average well improved, the buildings being of the best. The villâ€" agois distinguished for some picturâ€" e:que natural features. A short disâ€" bauce to the east are several high hills or pinacles, from whose summits an aweâ€"inspiring view can be had of the surrounding country, and so far as I know, it is the most extensive view of beautiful rural landscape to ke oktained in the country. _ I am told by old settâ€" lers that the surveyors who surveyed the route of the Grand Trunk through this ssction in 1853, made the calculaâ€" tion that the highest of these peaks was 960 fset above the level of the lake at Hamiltovn, and is the highest point between Sirnia and Niigara. It was upon the highest of these eleveâ€" tions that the Inudian warriors were signalled by beacon lights to assemble aba council of war, the war dance or perchance the periodical feasts of roast dog, given to commemorate a victory over the pale faces or some hostile tribe. The immense oil works of the Livâ€" inystone Linseed O o. is the largest of the kind in the Dominion. The baildings cover between two and three acres. The annual outpuat is some:â€" thing eco:â€"mous,. . About three car loads of Aax seed are daily required for the manufactu e of cil. Mach of the seed is brought from Manitobs. Bstween thirty and forty hands are®employed. The village also affords a number of very handsome residences and business blocks. It contains several large moiâ€" cantile establishments and threehotels and a wholesale liquor establishment. Among its industries is an extensive oil mill and foundry, a grist mill, saw and plaining mill, cigar box factory, woolen mill and small tannery. It at one time afforded a brewery, but that industry was abandoned several years ago. _A flix mill, though temporarily idle, gives employment to quite a num:â€" er of inhabitants. The latcer industry has been in operation bere for many years, having been established by B:ck for Perine Bros: in the early days of the village. â€"IS now belongs to Mr. J. Livingstone estate. There are several good blacksmith shops and wagon and carriage manufactories. Badon is the municipal seat of govâ€" ernment for Wilmot township, a posiâ€" tion ib has held for many years. In & topographical description of Baden I must say tkat it has a number of admirable natural advantages that would be of great value to aâ€" populous city. Sze skeb:h o H. M. Brubacher‘s woolen mil!s. Near by is the large foundry and machine shops founded by Beck. This establishment became the property of the Livingstones about twenty years ago. Itb is a pity that such a well equipped foundry should remain idle when it has all the facilities for manuâ€" facturimg high grade machinery. Four or five men are employed for repair work principally, which is from time to time reqaired in the oil mill and the various flix mills of the company. The foundry contains some very expensive machinery, such as ponderous lathes, drills, &c. The water to supply the tank at the (Frand Trunk station is pumped from this department, and has been done for many year. Buden is strictly a Garm»n commurâ€" ity, though the majority of the citiz>ns speak the Eaglish language flaently, especially the younger portion of the population, It is plainly apparent that they take a deep interest in educationâ€" al matters, as their echool is the largest and finest between Berlin and stratford on the Grand trunk line, There are four departments and each brauch has a competent instructor. The number of pupils is about 300. ion of Canada. Perine Brothers were also identified with the industrial interâ€" ests of the villege in its pioneer days, baving established a flax mill. But the latter, as well as the B:ck estate were finally absorbed by the Livingâ€" stones. _ In all probability, had it not been for the firm determination of the latter gentleman to carry out to the fullest extent the completion of the great enterprise they had undertaken to formulate, Badem would never have recovered from the sbhock it sustained from the collapse financially of the first individual who was mainly respor â€" sible for its existence. The foundry is in charge of a master mechanic, Mr. Wm, Melrose. _ He has been emploayed here for about twentyâ€" nine years, having for ten years been in the employ of Mr. Beck prior to the time the property came into the hands of the L‘vingstone Bros. As toâ€" age Mr, Melrose‘s appearance is very decepâ€" tive. The stranger would take him to be about thirtyâ€"five years of age, but he is now in his fiftyâ€"fcst year and has several grown up sons, He has a family of nine children. He was born of Scotch parentage in Eogland, but the family subsequently lived in Hawâ€" ick, Scotland, where the subject of this sketch learned bis trade, His father assisted in building the first Stevens locomotive and was an eminent mechâ€" anic in his day, _ William is evidently a‘"chip of the old block," but with more modern ideas, As a drafteman of machinery he has few superiors if What greater boon is there to a community than a flouring mull that tucns out notbhing but first claes flour. Baden is fortunoate in baving such an instibtution. The above mills were built by Jacob Beck in 1854. They were purchased by the Livingstone Brothers about fcurteen years sgo and came into the possession of their present owner, Mr. Poeter Shirk in 1889 Since he took charge the machinery has been overbauled and the greater portion cf it replaced by that of the most modern type. Tnere ares‘x set of double rolls with a capacity of tarning out a bundred barrels of choice family and export flour per day. A new addibion bas just been made to the machinery part in the shape of three bran new gyrators the very latest invention in mill maâ€" chinery, the sieves of which are so fine that to the novice it would seem utterly impossible for the finest flour to pass through. Oae cf the special brands of fljur turned oub is the "Nava" a product that is rurpassed by none. Much of it is for export and the markâ€" ets of the maritime provinces. These mills bave a very large custom patrorâ€" age, many farmers coming from beyond Hamburg and other points to have gristing done, Steam power is usel with water auxiliary. All the grain that comes to the doors is purchased and the highest price is paid. One particular feature of these mills that the visitor will immediately notice on entering the establishment is the rcâ€" markably clean appearance â€"of the inâ€" terior from the first flaor to the third. I must admit that they take the lead of any in this respect I have inspected. In one apartment of â€"the lower story is an electric dynamo operated by water. The apparatus furnishes a brilliant lightfof® the entire establishment and the Sherk Fresidence in Baden. The business here is under the management of Martin, the second son, the father during the greater part of the time is at his mills in Bridgeport; but the latter comes up frequently to sea that things are getting along all O K. Martin, however, takes a decp i_terest in the business. Ho is yet a young man, but is amply qualified to manags the busâ€" iness in every way satiefactory to the potrons. Mr, Sberk is probably ons of theâ€"oldest millers at present in tke barness in Oatario,having been engaged in the business for over forty years and there 1s not one more widely known than he in Waterloo county. He was born in Lancaster county, Pa., fortyâ€" tbree miles west of Philadelphia, in 1839. Helearned his trade in Morâ€" ‘gantown, Pa. and in 1862 he came to the town of Waterloo where h3s was for one year head miller in the mills there. Subsequently he had charge of the Blair Mills for three yeats and in 1870 he took charge of the Bridgeport Mills which he now owns and operates The latter establishment is one of the largest in the county, the building being three stories high and 40x94 feet in dimens‘ons. Ib has six set large double rolls, is eqaipped with the latest improved machinery and has a capacity for turning oub two bundred barrels of flour per day, While Mr. Sherk is well known as a miller he is also popu‘lar among his fellowâ€"men For about five years he has been treasuror ef Waterloo township and for twenty conscutive years has been a member of the Board of Trustees of the Berlin High School, â€" He is a member of the Mennonite church and a staunch Re:â€" former from the ground up, being an earnest supporter of the principles as promulgated by the presont Reform government, both in the Jower and upper houses. In 1866 Mr. Sherk was joined in marriage to Miss Magdaâ€" lena, daughter of the lato John Martin of Wool wich township.. The fruits of this union were fourteen children, four of whom are deceased. Mr. Orphen H. Wismer a practical and experienced miller is employed in the Baden Mills. mechanism, He bhas sumerous other dr fos of machicoery cf different kinds that pone but the most experienced draftemen could attempt to duplicate. any. His drawing of a locomotive of the most modern style is an excâ€"edingâ€" ly fine piece of work and in every paiâ€" ticular shows the hand of au expert in These woolen mills have been in existence for many years. The buildâ€" ing was originally used as & grist mill, and subscquently as a shirt factory. It is a large three storey structure 40 x 60, including a dye bouse 20 x 60 feet. There is ample water power thke year round, the dam being constantly No doubt the name of this subjeact is familiar to the majority of CUnrontâ€" CLE readors, espocially thuse who have reached the middle age of life. He was born in Woolwica Township in 1838, and ab about seventeon years of ago served a thorougb apprenticeâ€"hip with his father, the lave John W. Bruâ€" bacher, who was theu enogaged in the maoufacture of woolen goods atb Hawksville. _ H. M. never relicquisbed his adopted trade and prior t> coming to Baden in 1878 he was engaged in conducting woolen mil‘s at Hawkesâ€" ville, ‘St. Jacoos and Chicopee. He has been twice married, but his first wife died aboubt three years after marâ€" riage. In 1869 he was again united in marriage to Magdalena Allgeier, a sister of the Jeceased. Mr. Brubacher has a family of fourteen children to his credit, all of whom are living exâ€" cept two. Two of bis sons, Elias A. and Heory, are occupied in the factory with him. Euas A. is the general manager of the business, and who, beâ€" sides being a man of considerable busiâ€" ness ability and energy, bas commencâ€" able literary tastes. Ho at present is the representative here of several of the leading county papers. M .

FREDERICK HOLWELL,P. M Mr. Holwell was born in Brantford in 1845, being now in the 53 d year of his ago. At an early age he learned telegraphy. â€" After he reached manâ€" bood estate he was epgaged with thâ€" Grand Trunk Railroad in an official capacity, and for that company he was employed in Baden in 1865 and in Petersburg in 1870. In 1874 he took charge of the Petersburg hote‘, which be conducted with good success and acâ€" quired popularity and a wide acquainâ€" tance. While living at the latter plecs he was also engaged in farming. In 1888 he removed from Potersbhurg to Baden. In 1886, induced by the esrnesbt solicitation of his friends, he camse oub as the opponent of the late Isaric Master in the race for a seat in the local legislature, but he was defeated ef:er a epirited contest, having at the same time to contend with some disâ€" affoction theno ~existing wi hin the party ranks. For six years be served as Reeve for Wilmot Township, and has been township clerk since 1887 He bas at diff.rent periods held the cflize of county auditor, and in 1887 he was Warden of tke county, His first exporience as a servant of the people was in 1881 when he was apâ€" poirted a censts commissioncr.
