SECONDHAND TOBACCO.
How Old Cigar stumps Are Utilized
i'm the Manufacture of Cigarettes
and Smoking Tobacco.

"Just sec them go for theml suppose
they enjoy tho 'old soldiers as much as we do
sour Havanas.
Two gentlemen had Just cast their half.
smoked cigars into the street, and the above
remark was called out by seeing couple of
gamins dive into the gutter for the stumps.
"Enjoy them? Well, guess not. Do you
imagine that they smoke oil OF the old butts
they manage to scoop In about the clty?"
81 never gave It thought, but don't see
"You will be surprised then when tell you
that these old stumps which are gathered by
the ton about the city, from hotel cuspidores,
saloon ashboxes, railway waitlng-rooms and
public places generally, as we'll as from the
cutters, are manufactured into cigarettes and
smoking tobacco, but am informed that such
is the case, and that this ''second-hand" bust
nees is becoming quite an industry. Why, a
dealer was explaining the process to mo the
other day. OF course you don't see any large
concerns engaged in this business. The trade
is carried ON In obscure shops and tenement
houses, and hence a few people outside those
who are engaged In It have any idea of its ex-
tent. There arc probably hundreds of per-
sons connected with the industry right here
In Boston.
"Tho process of transforming the nlthy ac-
cumulatlons OF CUTTERS and cuspidores Into
bright, finely favored smoking tobacco Is thus
explained: The old cigar stumps, after the
charred ends are cut on are soaked In O solu.
ton OF ammonia andsom other chemical which
takes nearly all the nicotine from the tobacco
and removes all traces Of smoke and creosote.
Inc mass Oh puppy t)Dhcco ls lhen pressed
Into cakes and sliced by a cutting machine,
after which It is given q bath in some bleach
Ing solution which removes nearly all the
properties OF which the weed is pos
sessed when 1t comes from the plantation.
II is now taken TO the roof on trays and left to
dry In the sun. When thoroughly dry, II is
carefully taken up on the trays and carried
below, where 1t is passed under an atomlzer,
by which II Is dampened with q preparation
OF glycerlne and some navoring extract, after
which 1t is In shape to be made into cigarettes
or put up I'm packages as smoking tobacco. The
business Is said TO be perfectly legitimate, as
the manufacturers comply with the require
ments OF the revenue laws, and the tobacco
thus pays double tax"
sits good thing that those who smoke this
secondhand tobacco don't realize what II Is,
or Its use might befessened 2"
81 don't know about that. Those who ought
TO know say that the cigarettes thus made are
far less harmful than many Of those put up In
more attractive shape, and that II would DO
good thing for the youth of the country II all
cigarettes were made OF second hand tobacco,
prepared by this process. "-BoSt0n GLOBE.

The Edmunds.PheIps Letters.

Tho correspondence between Senator Ed
munds and VIM. Walter Phelps In relation TO
the latter's recent letter In defense OF Mr..
Blaine was made public yesterday. In Me-.
Phelps letter to the New York Epening Post,
In which he undertook TO refuto charges OF
corruption against Mr.. Blaine, no argued that
II Mr. Dlalno were censurable for owning stock
In the Little Rock Fort Smith road, IN whose
favor he had made ruling In the United
States Senate which resulted In tho connrma-
ton OF the land grant TO that road, other pub.
lie men wore equally blamable, and cited
tho case OF Senator Edmunds, who, he
said, had block of Burlington &
missouri securities, and had voted In
the Senate in favor OF the confirmation
OF the land grant TO that road. Senator Ed
munds took exception to this statement, and
on Monday wrote Mr.. Phelps letter, IN which
he characterized MIR. Phelps statement as In
accurate. At the time OF hts vote Mr.. Edmunds
said he had no ownership or interest In the
burlington Missouri road. Three months
later, he admits, he bought some OF tho stock
and lands for cash at market rates. He sug-
gests that II Mr.. Phelpsor any one else wishes
TO know anything concerning his business at
iaiis ne VIII put them In possession OF precise
Information. He adds that he Is "neither Will
ing nor DESTROYS TO be either candidate or
PRESIDENT" but dislikes to be accused OF bias
or corruption. To this letter Mr.. Phelps re-
piled, denying any intention TO reflect upon
Mr.. Edmunds, but claiming that his statement
was entirely accurate, and that the parallel
no had drawn between Mr.. Edmunds and Mr..
Blaine was complete.

cause why che should not be adjudged In con-
tempt OF court for failure 10 obey It's decree.
She was the complainant In the divorce suit

cree from which an appeal was taken to the

cree originally required that Mrs. Vincent

Tour months In each year for tho purpose OF

The ngississippi River.

The New Orleans correspondent Of the Iowa
lOskaloosa) Standard writes that Captain
feathers OF the magnificent steamer Natchez
eaid: III want you to remember what say.
Captain Cowdon is right. This great river
must have free course, or you must get out OF
tho Valleys" Said he: "Pve been here since
the first levee was built, and before the upper
rivers were bridged; have seen the oostruc-
ton of these floods and tell you these waters
must flow as the Almighty intended, and
where they seek a level or channel; and
proper attention must DO glyen this subject
now, or the people must go TO the hill coun-
try TO live" Our query is: Is 1t not very
probable that this very practical man, who has
boon son deck" here forty years, IL peter
prepared to give an opinion than mere
theorist2
He insisted that 1t "would have been bettor
II 100000 had been paid Eads to keep out OF
the Mississippi Yalley" Again In an argu-
ment Captain feathers said It was the obstruc.
lions in the river which caused such over
flows. oSee the proof; rise of 81 feet at
Pittsburgh, and ~ feet at Cincinnati whore
the Newport bridge seems built only to drown-
out Cincinnati. All such bridges with their
piers and abutments are a standing menace OF
overflow and ruin 10 all In the valley. Tell
Congress 10 help us every way-to levee, 'dy-
Mantle, dredge, blow out the bottom OF the
river, but especially consider the Oowdon
theory and make these 'cut.offs that this
river may have some relief.

of the surplus water into that sink that II may.
