Its Present Condillon Indicated by
Statistical Paradox.
Last year. contrary to the usual run
Of the tobacco trade. a large decrease
in the manufacture OF snuff was re-
ported In 1893 nearly eighteen mil
Jon pounds were Manufactured and
less than fourteen million pounds 10
1900. says the New York Tribune, on
the face OF it, one would say that the
taking Of snuh was passing away with
the nineteenth century and the linger-
ing last leaves who clung to the his
toric and unaesthetic practice As
matter Of fact. however. these figures
really show an increase The average
for some years previous to 1898 was
between ten million and eleven million
pounds. The competition Of enterpris-
Ing firms and the growth Of the indus
try cansed no little oyerprodnction,
which has now been stopped BY con-
solldation Of the snun-manufacturing
interests. The last year managed,
therefore. 70 raise the average Of SNUFF
production some three million pounds,
besides using the surplus Of 1899. So
there Is plenty of snun in the United
States Who takes itg An ordinary
mortal probably numbers no snun
takers among his acquaintances; but
according to dealers, this may be be-
cause he has no access to the sanctum
sanctorum. II IS IN the East that the
sale Of snuff is most decidedly increas-
ing. and. Of all cities, Boston seems
most enthusiastic over the gentle art.
There Is a legend that women are be-
ginning 10 exchange silver snuff boxes
as Christmas presents. but this story
seems to bear the light touch Of play
ful fancy. But statistics. n spite OF
their evil reputation, must tell a cer-
tain amount Of truth. and figures de-
clare that New England Is now the
happy hunting ground Of the snun
seller. The speculative brain OF
mathematical turn may find pleasure
in calculating how long It will be be-
fore snun-taking assumes the dignity
OF Boston fad. and what will be the
effect. If any, on the Anti-Imperialist
league In the South It IS less surpris-
ing to find snuff-taking Among the
old negroes and the 'po' white trash
the habit is known to be general, but
few realize how widespread among the
older generation OF gentlewomen Is the
practice Of dipping" or rubbing the
gums with snuf. The poorer classes
use a stick for the purpose, while the
manufacture Of little ivory wands for
the rich Is a steady if diminutive, in
dustry But among the well to do dip
ping" is losing ground, for as the old
enthusiasts die none arises to take their
places. But dipping" IS said to be on
the increase IN this state. Certainly
the sale Of snuff goes merrily on. I'm
tn recent years New Jersey and Penn
sylvanla made most OF the countly's

OF these states showed a decline Of
100000 and 100000 pounds respec-
lively, while Tennessee alone gained
about 225,000 pounds In fact. the In
