A Scarcity of Corn Cabs.

There is corner in corn cobs some-
WHERE said a wholesale dealer in
pipes, s'for the demands of manufact-
urers of corn-cob pipes can not be met,
even at advanced prices. There has
never been such scarcity in the supply.
The pipes. too, seem to be in greater
demand than ever. Many men won't
smoke any other kind. know one rich
society man who would be in disgrace
if he was seen in public with a corn-cob
pipe in his mouth, but who keeps his
pipe in his bedroom, and has quiet
smoke before he goes to bed The man
who invented the process of hardening
corn-cob has become independently
rich. Some cob pipes are costly because
of the silver mountings. but the pipe
that sells for five cents is the most pop
ular. Smokers say that corn-cob pipe
is swecter than any other. Southern
negroes, who know what is good, from
a hoecake to a spossum, wouldn't give a
cob pipe for the finest meersehanm, if
he couldn't get another. ! suppose the
short corn crop has had something TO do
with the scarcity. The cobs of q poor
crop are not fit to make pipes out Of. -

The late DIR. Bellows used to relate
with glee an incident which occurred to
him in his early days. At the close of a
lecture in small town in New Hamp-
shire he had returned to the village
tavern, and was warming himself at the
village fire before retiring for the night,
Win a farmer came in, and, introduce
in himself, stated that he had attended
his lecture with great instruction and
delight; and in closing said: II have
got more than my money worth. Please
accept this, as I now want to pay you
up at the same time presenting a silver
dollar. Like a sensible man. DIR. Bel
lows avoided any hurt to the feelings of
the generous-hearted visitor by accept

Hangnan's Rope as a Talisman.

The popular pocket piece just now in
this city is a piece of hangman's rope.
If all the hangman's rope were taken
from the pockets of superstitious St.
Louisians they would form a rope of
considerable length. The five hangings
recently taking place in this city have
brought out again the superstition that
hangman's rope is a sure cure for rheu-
matism, consumption, heart disease,
apoplexy and everything else. The
rope is s. sure cure for all the ills that
flesh is heir to, if properly applied and
adjusted; but that is not the way that a
great many St. Louis men and women
look at it.
In the police stations nearly every
prisoner who is searched carries bit OF
rope, and a great number of private
citizens treasure up the CHASTITY hempen
and in the alleys frequented by the col
ored populace there are yards of rope
will. which Ellis and Ward were execut-
ed. The supply is not yet exhausted,
and half an inch of the execution rope
sells for the phenomenally low sum of
five cents. A gentleman with whom a
reporter had conversation stated that
very nice lady had asked him for a
piece of the rope. She was handsomely
dressed, and pretty, too. With reckless
ness he promised to procure afaece,
not thinking she was in earnest. He
met her again. She asked for a
piece of rope. He straightway pro-
ceeded around among his friends, but
could not get any genuine. He had to
have piece for that lady, however, and
the brilliant idea struck him that he
could give her any piece of twisted hemp.
She would never know the difference.
He gave her a piece of the frayed and
broken clothes-line, saying that it was 81
strand of the rope, and she put it in her
purse and went away happy. Several
parties have been selling the rope about
town and taking in the gullible people.

A white mist drifts across the shrouds,
a Wild moon In this wintry sky
cleans like an angry lions eye
Out OF a name of tawny clouds.
Inc mufffed steersman at the wheel
Is but shadow in the gloom
And in the throbbing engine room
Leap the long rods of polished steel.
The shattered storm has left its trace
Upon this huge and heaVing dome,
For the thin threads of yellow foam
Float on the waves like rayelled lace.

The lily's withered chaIice falls
Around it's rod of dusty gold,
And from the beech trees on the void
The last wood-pigeon COOS and calls.
The gaudy leonine sunfiower
Hangs black and barren on its stalk.
And down the windy garden walk
The dead leaves scatter,-hour by hour.
Pale privet-petals white as milk
are blown into snowy mass:
The roses lie upon the grass.
Like little shreds of crimson silk.
