kiln. These 'saggers, made also by the
pipe man, are of clay, nodded into drum
shaped receptacles, and fired TO stand
strong heat After the kiln is
fun of "saggers'' containing the I'M
baked pipes. its opening is bricked
up. wood fire is made in the firehole at
the base of the kiln. and is kept burning
at even heat for eighteen hours. When it
is allowed to die out the firehole is also
bricked up 10 keep out even the slightest
draft of air, which might cause the brittle
wares to snap, thus running in an instant
the result of the careful labor of hours.
Not until the kiln and saggers have grad
ually cooled is it deemed discreet TO inspect
the condition of their contents.
Among the forty or fifty ppemolds owned
by Barney Spring are some of great inter-
est. A James Buchanan pipe-with the de-
sign of brick on one side and a cannon
on the other-was q prime favorite in 1856,
and an Abraham Lincoln pipe, decorated
with flags crossed under an eagle, had
also it's day and hour of political prestige,
The features of Tom Sayres, the one-time
champion of the English prize ring, form
the bowl of another pipe, and England is
also represented in the Tom Thumb pipe"
"a small, short pipe for opium smoking,
which is adorned with three feathers the
crest of the Prince of Wales. The "Bowsley''
or long straw, is a pipe fully two feet
long and is highly esteemed by tobacco cpl
cures who delight IN what Is known as
cool smoke" These long pipes resemble
those similar pipes of foreign make which
are much priced by the exclusive st. Mich
olas Society of New York city, the ability
to carry safely home, after the annual BAN
quet of that organization, this long and
ticklishly brittle souvenir pipe being con-
sidered positive testimony taat the member
who could achieve the feat had been tenn
perate in his cups and was in every sense
a gentleman. Other interesting molds in this
Hoosier workshop are a curtain pipe,
adorned with festoons, a bootleg design,
bent pipe and wheat sheaf pattern.
An extensive market for these clay pipes
formerly existed in Cincinnati, Louisville,
St. Louis and other Western cities, the ship
ments of each year amounting to about
five hundred boxes but latterly, for tariff
reasons probably, trade has dwindled to
merely retail proportions. Recently DR..
Marcus Benjamin, of the National Museum
at Washington. sent an order to the Indiana
log cabin clay pipe studio for specimens
of the campaign and other curio pipes
here manufactured, and another order fol-
lowed from Philadelphia AS a general rule,
however, the clay pipe maker burns but
two or three kiIns a year, selling to the
tobacco shops and drug stores of this vicin-
ity, from a basket on his arm such pipes
as will supply the reduced market at such
prices as will meet the demands of his own
simple living. EMMA CARLETON.
