Great Smokers.

The Hollanders are more given to smo-
king than any Northern people dreaming
with the eyes open The boatman of the
Trechskrit, the aquatic diligence of Holland,
measure distance by smoke; from one place
to another, not so many miles, but so many
pipes. Entering the house, your host Of
fers you cigar, often insisting on filling
your cigar case on leaving Some go to
sleep with pipe in their mouth, relight it
on wakening in the night, and in the morn

The cigar is not the companion of Incidence,

the sixth finger of the hand A French
man tells the story of rich gentleman of
Rotterdam, Van Klaes, surnamed Father
Greatpipe, being old, fat, and great smo-
ker As merchant in India he had
amassed fortune On his return he built
palace near Rotterdam, in which he ar
ranged, as in a museum, all the models of
pipes from all countries and of every time.
This was open to strangers, to whom, after
his display of smoking erudition, he gave
catalogue of the museum, bound in velvet,
with pockets of cigars and tobacco. Myn-
heer Van Klaes smoked $50 grammes of
tobacco per day, and died at 50; from Is
years of age he smoked 4, ,333 kilogrammes
making an uninterrupted black line of to-
baceo of 20 French leagues in length.
When but few days were left to complete
his 9Sth year, he suddenly felt his end APP
preaching, and sent for his notary, smoker
of great merit, and said sMy good notary,
fll my pipe and your own; am about to
die When both pipes were lighted Van
Klaes dictated his will, celebrated over
Holland.
After the disposal of the bulk of his
property to relatives friends and hospitals
he dictated the following articles:
Il desire that all smokers in the country
shall be invited to my funeral by all posi-
bic means, newspapers, private letters, cir
eulars and advertisements. Every smoker
who shall accept the invitation shall receive
a Gift of ten pounds of tobacco and two
pipes, upon which shall be engraved my
name, my arms and the date of my death
The poor of the district who shall fellow
my body to the grave shall receive, each
man, every year on the anniversary of my
death, large parcel of tobacco. To all
those who shall be present at the funeral GER
emonies, make the condition, if they wish
to be benefited by my viii, that they shall
smoke uninterrupted during the ceremony
My body shall be inclosed in case lined
inside with the wood of my old Havana
cigar boxes. At the bottom Of the ease
shall be deposited box of French tobacco,
so-ealled eaporai. and parcel of our own
Dutch tobacco At my side shall be laid
my favorite pipe and box of matches, be-
cause no one knows what may happen.
When the coffin is deposited in the vault,
every person present shall pass by and east
upon it the ashes of his pipe
The viii was carried out. The funeral
was splendid and yelled in thick cloud of
smoke. The poor blessed the memory of
the deceased, and the country still rings
with his fame

ENTERTAINING A BARON.
A Fete Champetre at the Spot.
ford Mansion.
Correspondence American.

PULASKI, TENN, July 18.-The
chief social event of the past week has
been the arrival in our midst of the
handsome and accomplished Baron
Won WendlaRd, of Bavaria. The
Baron is guest at the residence OF
Mrs o. N. Spoford. The hostess
being in mourning, series of enter
tainments, al iresco, have been ar
ranged in compliment to the young
visitor.
Thursday evening fete champetre
was given upon the lawns and in the
gardens surrounding the old family
residence, which, though situated in
the center Of town, presents all the
aspects of a rural home when one has
passed the high and vine clad cedar
hedges that enclose the premises.
The grounds were brilliant with
light, revealing the beautiful costumes
OF the ladies, musical with song and
laughter, and at atmosphere fragrant
with the breath Of flowers was per-
vaded also by the spirit of happiness
reflected by the animated faces Of the
gay young revelers.
Refreshments were served in large,
densely shady arbor, lighted by many
and various hued lanterns.
Archery meetings, rides, drives and
similar amusements vile away the
hours, and invitations are just issued
tor gipsy tea drinking, to be given
upon an island Of picturesque beauty,
encircled by the tranquil waters Of
Richland.
Baron Won Wendland expresses
himself as charmed with Tennessee.
