Mr.. SHAW SETS HIMSELF RIGHT.

HE SAYS HE WAS INCORRECTLY REPORTED on
THE SUBJECT OF AMERICAN-MADE GLASS.
TO the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: I noticed in your issue of yesterday letter
written by Mr. Thomas 3. Kniffn, commenting upon an
interview had with representative or one OF tho
New York evening papers some days ago. The re-
norter did not take the interview down at the time is
would appear 10 any one reading the acle ana trust
ing to his memory in writing II up afterwait, stated
the conversation most unfairly, and quoted me moor
rectlv I'm many particulars. Under these clrcum-
stances trust yo1 will the favor to publish this
reply.
Nothing was said by me against our American manu-
facturers for am well aware that some of the finest
glassware especially heavy cut tabeware, has been
made in this country for many years. and knowing inc
quality made here certainly would not have made the
statement attributed to me In THIS interview Inc
reporer certainly misunderstood my remarks In this
regard.
The bill which went into effect on August taxed
the packages at the rate the goods contained In
them and OF course increased the cost of foreign glass
ware. but no advance was made by any OF the I'M
porinrs as far as know that time. The last bill,
which went into effect the early part OF OCTOBER In
creased the cost of these goods in addition abot 10
per cent This last increase OF course mahes ~ 80
arv for the selling price to be somewhat advanced but
I did NOT state that there would be an ADVANCE Oh 10
per cent ir prices OF glassware.
II was at first my intention OF writing to the e1ltor
Of the paper publishing the interview, eaiis hhi
before yonr readers regret that deferred dOns So
and think should take notice OF the inaccuracies.

Tobacco and civilization.

The development of the American
colonies their rapid growth in the CEN
fury preceding the American revolu-
ton, depended in large measure on
botanical accident, viz, on the in.
PRODUCTION of tobacco into the COM
merce OF tho world. No contribution
from newly discovered lands has ever
been SO welcomed as this so-called
noxious weed. No new faith has ever
travelled so fast and far among men as
the habit of smoking. In scarce CEN
fury from the first introduction of the
plant in Europe, its use had spread to
nearly half the peoples Of the old
world. The eastern coast OF America,
from the Hudson southwark to South
Carolina, is peculiarly suited for the
growthAof the tobacco plant, and the
rapid extension OF the British colonies
in America which brought their pop
ulation at the time of the revolution to
a point where they numbered about
one-sixth part of the English people,
was largely due to the commerce
which rested upon the use Of this
plant. Monthly.

Sound at Different Angles.

In some recent experiments on the
range of human hearing. the ticking
of a watch was distinctly audible at Il
distance of ten feet on line at right
angles to the head. On moving the
watch Is degrees in front Of the line
the tick could be heard fourteen feet
eway; at an angle of 40 degrees only
six feet and at 50 degrees only three
feet. Placed 20 degrees back of the
line, the watch could not be heard be-
yond six feet. The total range of hear
ing was about 50 degrees. the direc-
ton of greatest acuteness being Is de-
grecs in front of the imaginary line
through the ears. Descending from
the horizontal, the hearing distance
increased from ten feet to maximum
of twelve feet at 80 degrees, and then
decreased until reduced to three feet
at so degrees. On carrying the watch
upward the sound decreased steadily
until at an angle of GO degrees it could
be heard only three feet away.
