pels herself 20 and from the cupboard and the

sometimes in the past. she rolls her chair before
the cupboard door and brandshes her cane.
She threatens 10 crack the skull Of the first
man that ventures in her reach. The ba e and
authority Of A United States marshal have no
terrors for her.
Various plans have been made for the dis
position of Dame Ouillette. At one time new
deputy United States marshal came 10 the
house with full determination 10 take into Gus
tody this doughty old defer OF Uncle sam
When he looked at her weight and then looked
ct his buggy his resolution weakened. But he
told her that she was under arrest and must
go to Portland with him Dame Ouillette smiled
amiably and told him 10 take her She declared
that she ready 10 go just as she was The
deputy walked first one side of the huge
chair and then the other. He lifted eau
tiously. He could not bulge her. She only
grinned at him. He ordered her 10 stand up
and walk 10 the buggy. She explained that
she had not been able to walk for years. The
neighbors verified her statement. The marshal
men standing around to assist him in carrying
the woman to the carriage. But once out OF
doors at the side of the conveyance, the npos-
sibility OF getting her in made itself manifest
So she was conveyed back to her kitchen, still
smiling. Since that time no United States OFF,

Dame OuiIl-tte only smiles when the officers pay
her occasional visits TO if she will not cease
posing as a determined outlaw. Some OF them
threaten 70 break her bottles. but she bran
dishes her thick stick. and no officer wishes 10

with care and 10 base their opinions upon facts
that are thoroughly established
This subject having been brought to the at
tention OF Ismar s. Ellison Editor Of The
United States Tobacco Journal" he expressed
much sceptcism He resents the suggestion
that one method Of smoking is more injurious
than another He thinks that it all depends
upon ones constitution and taste one person
can smoke without harm, while another cannot
When Mr.. Ellison cannot smoke at all it is a
sign that he is sick. And he prefers a cigar to
pipe or a cigarette, and despses cigar holders.
He is particular about the brand OF cigar which
he smokes. There many kinds that he
cannot tolerate. Mr.. Ellison would interfere 10
prevent children from smoking just as he would
restrict the sale Of liquors But he severely
condemns doctors who try to prevent mature
people from ndugng in the practice.
Some idea Of the relative amount of tobacco
smoked in the three ways referred to here may
be derived from the following figures kindly
furnished by Mr.. Ellison. The domestic pro-
duction Of leaf tobacco in 1899 was about
coo 900 900 pounds. Nearly half Of this eX-
ported. But good deal was imported, also.
About 92-aoO00 pounds Of leaf were made up
into cigars in this country The tobacco manu-
factured for smoking in pipes amounted to about
lO2 100000 pounds, while the raw material go
ing into the domestic cigarettes was not far
/
here for imported cigars. These numbered
30 oE0 600 or not to exceed 1,0jD0D or lJOOOJU
pounds. in 1899 1t would therefore appear that
the amount OF tobacco smoked in the pipe in
this country is almost great as that smoked
in the other two ways put together. Whether
this is because a man can get more smoke for
the same amount Of money in this manner or
not it is hard TO say Mr.. Ellison SCOTS at the
idea that the pipe is the poor mans smoke
While one cannot yet regard The Lancets"
| theorv that nicotine is harmless as fully estab-
! hsbed il is interesting to note that a so-cailed
! health" cigar has been invented in Germany
which is made Of tobacco in which the nicotine
&c neutral lized by chemical means. The cigar has
found some sale in this country, and the patents
covering the process Of manufacture nave been
y .ouired bv the American Tobacco Company.
This story also suggests another curious line

owing to the close game played this sea-

loose playing on both sides. but after the
second inning both teams settled down
and some splendid work was done by the
teams. as well as by Individual menu
bers. In the fifth inning Webster City
tied the score and from that until the
eighth 1t was a toss-up. In that inning
Manson gained lead of two scores and
seemed to have the game won, but in the
last half of the ninth came the sensa-
tional climax that was fitting close for
two days of fine sport. With the bases
full, Town went to bat and hit Noyes
for home run, boosting the score to the
eleven notch, with Manson in the seven

fahela.

Pittsburg, Aug. 21-The strike situa-
ton has not materially changed today.
The strikers have not called any more
men out and none of the plans of the
manufacturers for additional resump-
tions with non-union men have ma
tured. The feelin Of Irritation at
Wellesville has increased by the APP
pointment of thirty breakers as special
officers to guard the plant of the Ameri-
can Sheet Steel company and police here
have had to dispense noisy crowds at
the recently tied up tube plants, but
there has been no serious trouble at any
point. ut is claimed an attempt was
made last evening to fire the Mononga-
hela works of the American Tin Plate
company. and the police have been
called into the case to run the supposed
incendiary down. According to the story
told by John Schuster. general labor
boss of the plant. the pressure guage
was knocked off an eight inch gas main
and burning paper thrown into the
place, with the idea of destroying 1t
with an explosion and fire. He says he
plugged the break before the brand was
thrown and saved the works. The
strikers Indignantly deny they had any
thing to do with any plot to wreck the
plant and are inclined to discredit
Schuster's story entirely.
The promised break in the Carnegie
property has not yet come and as far as
outward appearances so the Lower I'm
ion mill in this city has not been af-
fected, but the strikers insist they have
seriously impaired it. The strike lead
ers are trying hard to gain a foot hold
in the Clark MILL which is running with
non-union men, but that property too
seems to be going at practically full ca
pacity. 1t is quieter at Dueuesne. but
the fight for supremacy there is by no
means over.
Strikers Paid OF.
Milwaukee, Aug. 81. - The Illinois
Steel Company, at its Bay View plant
today, paid off the strikers and those af-
fected by the strike in full and they are
considered no longer as employees.
Everything is quiet.
