Speculative knowledge is, of course,

speculation and practice cannot be
drawn absolutely. A Pashs who had

Save Your Cigar Clips. "

The tips" or head of the cigar,
which the American bites off and
throws. away, is carefully preserved
In EuroE e, and in some localities is the
basis OF vas organized charity. Its
use for this purpose dates back only a
couple OF decades. A German phil
osopher, observing that much valuable
tobacco was wasted by the rejection o
the cigar tip, conceived the notioB
that II general collection OF the tips
could be made. and the material put
to use, 8 handsome revenue would
result. he was laughed at by many,
while a number of smokers halt seri-
ously agreed 10 assist him by con-
triouting their tipe. At fret the lack
Of al organized effort did not produce
encouraging results, but those inter-
ested kept talking about the move
ment and public attention was ex-
cited. After awhile "Spizelvereins." -
or tip societies, were organized in ell
parts of Germany and a regular sys-
tenn of collections was devised. Ev-

and boxes we're placed in tobacco
stores and saloons. The tips we're
collected monthly. and at the end OF
the year sold to snuff or smoking to-
bscco manufacturers. The system
in time grew to extraordinary proper
tions, and hundreds OF children in
Germany are to-day fed and clothed
through this simple agency. This
''tip" collecting plan has been
adopted in England where the pre-
ceeds are given to the hospitals, snd
in Denmark, where the tips" help
to sustain a charitable hospital in
Copenhagen, and pay for the educa-
ton and support of a number of poor
girls until they are able to take care
of themselves. 1t seems probable
that the tips thrown away in this
country, where there are said to be
more cigars smoked than in all Eu.

used for some good purpose. What

would doubtless support the Child

The Woman Market at TuRis.

A most impressive journey is to the
palace OF the Boy, the Bardo. Pass
ing through the Marine Gate We
enter the quarters Of the town which
lie between the ancient wall and the

fused multitude of huts and houses

savage faces; bent old men leaning

Yanderbilt's New Mansion.

Il will be good many months gel
before Mr.. w. Fl. Vanderbilt's mag.
nificent mansion on Fifth avenue
will be ready to occupy. All the work
is so elaborate that even the least part
of it takes a great deal of time. The
exterior is neither ss imposing nor
attractive as one might expect 10 find
il after reading any OF the descriptions
written up from the architects plans.
The fat surface Of the walls gives the
whole g rather dull look, which, at a
short distance, is hardly relieved by
the fine carvings and scroll work on
various parts OF the stone. As the
stone itself is the common brown stone
common to all parts of New ork.
there Is nothing particularly striking
in the outside effect The building
is, iE fact, rather plain, much more
80 than they are on the adjoining
block. which will be occupied by
Mr.. Varderbilt's oldest COD, and looks
more substantial than ornate. In
this RET pect it may be regarded as re-
1ectiDg the owners character, for
Vanderbilt is not SNOWY man by

him being those rather stringy eide

Whereas, It has pleased the Almigh-

That wo deeply deplore the sad and
untiinely death of our chief executive

rous in spirit AMI intrepid in action,

energies to tho best interests Of his

LOUIS ALFRED WILT.


Unhappily for Governor Wilt he
entered upon the duties of his office, in
the condition his health then was, with
too great strain upon his physical re-
sources. He was ambitious, and sought
to attain distinction in his native State,
for which he taxed all his energies, even
from boyhood, gathering around him
a host of friends devoted to his eleva-
ton, and when elevated eagerly ex-
pectant of official recognition. 1t was
not to be expected that Gov. Wilt
could possibly negative tho claims Of
his friends and supporters, no more
than that he could crafty the wishes
and wants of them all. He had Il trying
place.to fill, and after his campaign of
the State, was left with but little physi-
cal strength to undergo the vexations
resulting from tho distribution of
patronage. He was hardly free from
the opportunities Of officc-seekers from
the hour it became known that he was
elected Governor; and we suspect that
the exigencies of his situation caused
him to make appointments which in
some other place he would not have
approved, and gave him no mental
quietude, something of which he stood
greatly in need.
A young life has gone out, and a man
of generous impulses and warm friend
ships has closed at an early age bril-
liant public career. A whole State
mourns his death. He died at the age
of thirty-eight years-his death univcr-
sarly lamented-and before the blight
and entanglemcnts of probable disaster
and the frightening cares Of Office and
accumulating years came upon him.
We are not sure but that Louis Alfred
Wilt, exhibiting as he did in his suf-
ferings great fortitudc, determination
and will, and in his death philosopllic
resignation to that he knew to be
enevitable, did more to pcrpetuate his
memory and to cxalt the youth of his
State than if he had been Governor two
terms and lived with honors the
allotted ago of three score years and
ten. History, and romance perhaps
will give him enduring fame, as nuci
that nc died young and possessed O
brilliant prospects, rs because he die
the best and all that hc could.
