But IL does not do TO feel too con-
fident as To tendencies indicated by
events In Paris 4 sensation one day
is pretty sure TO be followed by SEN
sation TO contrary purpose a few days
later. Already de Beaurepaire has
taken a drop for all OF the conse-
quences that the sensational advocacy
OF the cause Of Dreyfus on the part
OF man OF his standing seemed TO
threaten. He went too far For a
member OF the highest court i'm France
to accuse his associates Of corrupt con-
duet evidently located the burden of
proof with the accuser Three days
ago Paris was apparently looking for
"A coup d'etat. But the Chamber OF
Deputies. which promptly took cogni-
zance OF the new Dreyfus manifesto
tion. after one OF those stormy meet
ings that are become so familiar voted
by a big majority to support the gov
ernment and the courts Of the land. To
what wild and ridiculous length the
discussion in the deputies thus aroused
by the new turn TO the dispute be-
tween the military and the civil au-
thority is indicated by the frantic mo-
tion by a royallst member that the
whole Court of Cessation should be
tried by court martial.

A more mild ana genial feature Of
the discussion in the Chamber Of Dep
uties was the evidence of the Minister
Of Justice to show that no favoritism
was shown by the nigh court to the
Drcyfusites. as De Beaurepalrc had
charged. but all witnesses had been
treated with equal courtesy. and the
courts refreshments were az the dis
posal OF anti-Dreyfusites as well as
Dreyfusites. The refreshments that
the high court kept Hospitality handy
consisted Of carafe Of water and IA
bottle OF rum. The Chamber seemed
satisfied from this testimony. without
further inquiry that Il was not true. as
de Beaurepaire in his charges may have
intimated. that While the carafe was
always fun the bottle was empty when
ever an nti-Dreyfus witness was on
the stand.

In cur own disgraceful military situ-
alton the newest development is the
censure by the war investigation board
OF General Egan for the labored black
guardism of his testimony, and the
refusal To place the testimony ON the
record untu IL has been amended TO
more nearly approach the proper in
deliberate evidence before a dignihed
body. Egan has splendid record as
soldier ana an administrator. The
record shows him 30 be a fearless
fighter. and his associates describe him
asa fine fellow. There Is but one ex-
planation OF the amazing exhibition he
made before the war board, and that is
a purpose TO compel his own arrest and
trial by court martial as the only way
to get out the whole truth of the dis
pute between the army heads. Be
cause hot as the language was IL was
not hot headed. since IL was carefully
prepared and put into typewriter copy

THE TRADE IN TOBACCO PIPES.

Some Curious Information Concerning
Briar, Corncob and Amber Pipes.
dealer in pipes on Broadway was
putting some goods away after sale.
Few people outside Of the business" he
remarked to Sun reporter, "have any
idea of the curious features Of the pipe
current concerning 1t. See this pipe?
What Is it? A briar? Well, that Is
what every one thinks AS matter Of
fact, 1t is made from the roots of the
rock ivy which grows in the Pyrenees.
The roots reach down among the rocks
in search of water, until they are like Il
mass Of frozen snakes and as tough as
leather There are no large pieces of it.
The name Is bruyere, hence briar.
"Then take the once popular corncob
pipe, which is passing away here. 1t
was not corncob at all, strictly speak
ing. Take the average cob, when dry
enough to use, and you will find that it
measures about an inch and quarter in
diameter, of which third is fuzz Now
look at these corncob pipes The bowls
average an inch and half in diameter
and have every appearance Of very
large cob. The patent for making these
netted the inventor, man named Tibbe,
large fortune. 1t was the name that
caught on, added to the fact that the
farmers did actually make pipes of the
veritable cobs but these had small
bowls. In the Tibbe pipes, now almost
extinct the cob was taken while fairly
fresh and plunged into a handful Of
plaster of paris, to which some secret
glue had been added. This was well
worked by hand into the fluffy outside
Of the cob and allowed to dry. Then the
exterior was smoothed down into the
shape of pipe and the cob interior cut
out to form the bowl, but mark this, the
interior cut away was practically all
cob, and so nothing remained bpt the
very outside fuzz. 1T was a corncob
pipe sure enough, but the cob was all
gone. This idea was still further en-
larged upon when the patent expired,
and the mixture of plaster etc, was
used to form 4 pipe which was called
the buckwheat, although it had not so
much buckwheat as the cob pipe had
cob but it was a good pipe and sold
well.
Years ago charcoal was treated in
similar manner and was sup
posed to be the great hygienic pipe of its
lay, but 1t has died out. Then there was
the meal pipe made of veritable meal
and plaster, but after time the oil in
the meal burned and the pipe lowered
the rents for block around the smoker
Mark Twain had just gone into raptures
over an English pipe. It Is bowl with
a double draught, one coming through |
the tobacco and one through the side of
the pipe, making the tobacco burn
longer and the smoke cooler, Then the
smoke passes along the stem in round !

"STATISTTCS OF COLLEGE, GRAD.
YATES

An article in the current number of
the Yale Review entitled "Statistics Of
College Graduates" is here presented.
The information contained as to the vo-
cations pursued by Yale men upon their
graduation from college is most inter-
esting.
The movements of no class of people
in the community are mora carefully
recorded than those of the American
college graduates. This is especially
true of the graduates of Yale College,
whose whereabouts and occupations are
the basis of the successive class secreta-
ries' reports, the high statistical value
of which we owe to the persistency and
intimate relations of the class system in
the academic department of that uni
versity.
During the ten years. 1SS3-1S92, 1868
men were graduated from the college.
The birthplace, permanent residence
and permanent vocation of almost all of
these is on record; also the vocation of
four-fifths of their fathers. The distri-
button among the different professions
and occupations in the case of both the
fathers and of the sons is indicated in
percentages of all the fathers and sons
whose records are obtainable, as fol-
lows:

Occupation Of Fathers; Sons

In an earlier number of the Yale Re-
view (for November, 1899, an analysis
of the occupations Of the graduates of
Yale college was given. Some Of the
facts there noted are further empla-
sized by the above table, The fraction
of ministers among recent graduates
has fallen from a much larger figure to
ST Ter cent. A larger fraction of the
fathers Of these graduates, namely 101
per cent, We're ministers. Their sons
ev lently turned to other professions.
Iuch the same is true of the farmers
md planters. Eight per cent. of the
fathers were so occupied. But Of the
above generation of college graduates,
less than one per cent devoted them
selves to agricultural pursuits. In the
case of business occupations, half of the
fathers were business men (merchants,
bankers, manufacturers, brokers, etc.);
of the sons, less than one-third were; a
striking fact when we recall that in ear
lier times the college education was al
most exclusively preparation for
professional career. which was pursued
so largely by the sons of professional
men. OF recent graduates, as is seen,
