CIGAR RIBBONS.
0inety-four Styles Made and Their Man.
ufacture an Important Industry.


One New York firm alone turns out
yearly an average of more than $2OO,OOO
worth of cigar ribbons and on these en-
ploys nearly 500 hands Until 1868, IL Is
said, no cigar ribbons were manufactured
here The use of silk ribbons to tie up ci-
CARS originated in Cuba. The Spaniard's
patriotism impelled him to choose the ma
tional colors Of red and yellow, and these
two colors, separate or in combination, are
still the fayorites The first ribbons were
made in Barcelona and were the rich Grim |
son scarlet known as the Figaro, the vivid !
yellow of the Cabanas and Partigas and |
the red and yellow of the Espanola
The first domestic ribbons made were OF
cotton, of pale yellow with brown
stripe running down the center, and this
was speedily followed by II ribbon made
wholly of silk. In 1868 cigar manuiac,
turcr in this country conceived the idea OF
having his name printed on the SILK rip-
bon, which had hitherto been plain, ana
also the shape Of the cigar. This was at
first done i'm black, then in colors ana
eventually in silver and gold, with en-
bossed work and coats of arms. linen the
name was woven into the ribbon instead
of being printed. Many of these ribbons
are still in use on expensive goods. Woven
since it is impossible TO duplicate 1T in
| small quantities.
In 1868 the first ribbon factory was es-
tablished in this country by man named
| Wicke who established a small factory
near the East river. 1t was operated by
two Swiss. The demand for the ribbon In
creased, and in 1870 the profits were SO
good that four loom factory was started
and operated by Swiss weavers especially
imported. Only two widths OF what Is
termed "Londres' ribbons were then
made. In 1887 there were more ribbons
used in proportion to the total number OF
cigars manufactured in this country than
i'm any other year. and since then the pun
ding of cigars has steadily decreased In
favor of the system of packing 20 or oo III
a box without ribbons, but so great has
| been the increase in the number OF cigars
made, now over 1000, 900, 600 yearly, tha'

FOSSIL MINES.
scientists Often Buy Stone Fences to Get
the Treasures Therein.

The pavements of cities are not infre-
quently veritable mines of fossils. Slate
nags often contain the visible remains of
marine whelks and ancient mollusks re-
lated TO the modern pearly nautilus, etc.
The paleontologist, walking down Broad

the purpose of knocking it to pieces and
getting out the fossils, which stand out in
bold relief, so as TO attract attention.
Among the fossils are many kinds of COR

and not few "sea llies'-animals coun-
