SMOKING IN HOLLAND.
The Dutch Are the Greatest Users Of
Tobacco In Europe.

Tobacco In Europe.
The Hollanders are perhaps Of
all the northern peoples those who
smoke the most. The humidity of
their climate makes it almost a ne
cessity, and the very moderate cost
of tobacco renders it accessible to
sill.
TO show how deeply rooted is the
habit it is enough to say that the
boatmen of the trekschuit, the
aquatic diligence of Holland, meas
ure distance by smoke. From here,
they say, to such and such a place it
is not so many miles, but so many
pipes.
When you enter a house after the
first salutations your host offers you
cigar. When you take your leave
he hands you another and often in
sists upon filling your cigar case.
In the streets you see persons
lighting a fresh cigar with the burn
ing stump of the last one without
pausing in their walk and with the
busy air of people who do not wish
to lose a moment of time or a
mouthful of smoke. Many go to
sleep with pipe in mouth, relight it
if they wake in the night and again
in the morning before they step out
Of bed.
1t really does appear that smok-
ing is for the Dutchman a necessary
vital function.
Many people think that so much
smoke dulls the intelligence. Never
theless if there be a people, as Els
9--'--- instlV observes, whoseds al
lect is of the clearest ana nignes-
precision it is the Dutch people.
Smoke" said HoDander, "is
our second breath" Another de-
fined the cigar as the sixth finger Of
the hand.-Pearson's Weekly.

0uo OF SiHisouO stolen.
BRIDGEPORT. Conn. Oct. ni.--The
chances that the police win recover
nearly the whole of the $4,000 sto,en
from the Adams Express company Ia
Pittsburg by Edward @. Cunline. who
was arrested here and taken TO PITTS
burg. seem bright. Last night S9.0a5
was found in 4 trunk belonging TO il
butler in a prominent family at Black
Rock but the butler and the family by
whom he is employed were ignorant OF
the fact that the large sum found was
within the house
Although there is a possibility that
the remaining $i0.50O has been de
stroyed. the police are of the opinion
that another accomplish of Cunliffo
may reveal the hiding place of the
missing sum. In round numbers $780,
900 has been found within the past
twenty -four hours.
After figuring ON about $500 as the
amount which Cunliffe has spent or
which was found ON him when arrest
cd there is left ii sum of $10,500 yet to
be accounted for
The discovery of the money IN the
Black Rock home was brought about
by keeping close watch on one of
Cunliffe's chance acquaintance, George
Eisenman.
The story of the betrayal of Cunliffe
by his friend, James Missett, Is inter
esting. Missett formerly lived in Bris-
tot Qua fNuax,, f,,.nlsefa ,,-.ll FIsan,y In a
been together a good deal when Cum
life lived in Bristol and Hartford, and
at the present time Missett Is employed
by one OF the cheap hotels in the sec
tion Of the city in which Cunliffe was
captured. Last Tuesday Missett went
Cunliffe standing at the bar. INSECT
went up to him and said: Hello. Gun
life! What are you doing heref"
Cunllffe turned around and pretended
not to know MisSett, who was sure Of
his man AIissctt then said: why.
you know me. I'm Missett. You used
to play policy with me in Bristol"
Cunlffe still denied that he had ever
seen Missett Missett then left for
New York and visited the Pinkerton
agency.
The Pinkerton people thought at first
that Mssett was a crank, but he as
sured them that he was IN earnest and
said that If the pinkertons would give
him written agreement that he would
get the reward If he told them where
the missing man could be found he
would do so. This was agreed TO and
Missett told them The arrest of Cum
life followed Last night Missett re-
turned from New York with the $500
reward and proceeded to spend it Law
ishly throughout the lower part of the
city.
