TEST FOR CIOAR SMOKERS.
How mii Inveterate Lost a liet ami a
Dealrr Lost a Cuatouner.
"I have a customer who thinks he
smokes twenty-five cigars a day," said
a New Orleans dealer. "As a matter
of fact he smokes about three-eighths
of that number. The other five-eighths
represents what he gives away, lays
down partly consumed and a generous
disregard of 'butts.' However, he is
firm in the conviction that he smokes
more actual tobacco than any other
man in New Oilcans and a boast on
the subject In my store yesterday led
to a curious bet. He declared, to be
gin with, that he could smoke three
ordinary cigars in half an hour, and a
bystander remarked that no man alive
could smoke even one cigar continu
ously, until it wi'.s consumed, without
taking it from his lips. 'Hush,' said
the 25-a-day gentleman. I do that
right along and think nothing of it.'
'I'll bet you a box of perfectos you
can't do it right now, said the other,
and in half a minute the wager was
made. By its terms the cigar vas to
be consumed in steady, consecutive
puffs and not removed from the lips
until burned to a mark, 1 V4 inches
from the tip. A clear Havana, Colo
rado maduro in color, was selected for
the test and the smoker took a seat
and began. He puffed like an engine
for about two minutes and accumulat
ed something under half an inch of
ash, and then he began to wobble. He
shifted the cigar from side to side,
pulled slow and fast, and seemed to
have difficulty getting his breath be
tween the draws. At any rate he
kept moving his head to avoid the
smoke and finally got to coughing. I
could see he was in torture, but he
stuck to it until lie got within half an
inch of the mark. Then he jumped
up suddenly, threw the cigar away, and
walked out of the store. I paid tht
bet and charged it to his account, and
he told me last night that the very
idea of tobacco made him sick. It is
not unlikely that the affair may lose
me a good customer. I doubt wheth
er it would be possible for anybody to
smoke even a moderately strong cigar
through in the manner I have de
scribed." New Orleans Times-Democrat.
DELICACY
Of Touch Acquired by llaudllua Money
at the Mint.
New Orleans Times-Democrat: "One
often hears it said that the blind learn
to see with their finr tips," remark
ed an old mint employe, "and the sim
ile is not so far-fetched as might be
supposed. The extent to which the
Bcnse of touch may be trained and de
veloped is amazing. Here in the mint
we have women employes who can de
tect a counterfeit coin the moment they
lay their hands on it, yet If you asked
them how they do it they would be
utterly unable to give an intelligent
explanation. The only thing they can
say is that 'it feels wrong.' Such ex
perts never make a mistake, and will
spot a spurious pifce when the most
delicately adjusted mechanical coin de
tector passes it as O. K. They will
know a coin is genuine even after th
inscription has been partially worn ofl
by hard usage, but a counterfeit, old
or new, Is instantly thrown out. Ol
course they use their eyes as well a
their hands in the work, but theii
main reliance is placed in their finget
tips, and to see them run over a pile
of money, occasionally pushing aside a
bad piece, is well worth a trip to th
mint. In my younger years I possess
ed the faculty myself, but I find I
have lost it to some extent. I believi
as one grows old the skin hardens im
perceptibly and the touch becomes lest

cold will affect the hands In that re

Anil Hail an Expensive Tombstone Plaeed
Over the Grave.
Calumet (Mich.) Correspondence of
the Detroit Journal: In the little vil
lage of I.'Anse lives a shoemaker
named Peter Murphy, who is one of
the most eccentric men in northern
Michigan on just one subject. Ten
years igo" the physicians found it nec
essary to amputate one of his legs just
above the knee. When he recovered
from the operation he decided that the
part of his leg which had been taken
off was dead and therefore it should
be buried, and he arranged to have a
funeral service. The amputated mem
ber was placed in a small coffin and
buried with all the pomp and cere
monv Air. Murnn.v woum nave ex
pected if it had befn his own funeral
He attended the i'uneral himself and
wept genuine tears as the earth was
shoveled on ton of the rough box. But
this didn't end his devotion to that
nart of his body which was dead. . He
purchased an expensive tombstone,
had a likeness of the leg cut into the
tone, and then had it inscribed with
the facts of the case, telling that it
was Peter Murphy's leg, and the date
of the funeral. Although this all hap
pened teu'years ago, Mr. Murphy never
neglects the sacred spot where his leg
is buried, and every week he hobbles
ont to the cemetery., where in the sum
mer time he keeps the grave prettily
decorated with flowers. His wish is
that when he dies the remainder of hia
body shall be interred with his leg.
Murphy is a veteran of the civil war,
and his injuries during one of the bat
tles were the indirect cause of his hav
ing the leg cit off.

Moon -.limit lie Precipitated by u Change
of Orbital Attraction.
The fate of the earth if the moon
should cease to exist would depend up
on several circumstances. Her proper
motion is now held in check by the
earth's attraction, which converts it
into a circular motion round us. If we
ceased to be this motion would be in a
straight line at right angles to a line
joining the centers of the earth and
moon. The force that carries her round
the sun in the earth's orbit would con
tinue to act, but this would be com
plicated by her proper motion, which
again would depend upon her position
at the time of our disappearance. If
she was full her proper motion would
be added to that of the earth's orbital
motion, and if new it would be sub
tracted, but, as it is only a thirtieth
part, it would not be an important ad
dition. If she was in her first quarte
it would act in a direction away from
the sun, and might carry her into
space, and if she was in third quarter
it would set toward the sun and wouid
probably precipitate her into that lurui
nary. If, however, one of the other
planets happened to fall in her new
track she would probably become again
a moon, or she might fall into one of
them and be destroyed. The removal
of the earth would probably upset the
whole solar system, so any forecast
cannot be very trustworthy.
