"YOUR UHCLE"
.A Reporter Converses With
His Father's Celebrated
Relative.
The Pawnbroker's ProflU--Gro\V' '
inR Dcmnuil Tor Overcoats.
as City Journal.
Pawnbrokers must bo of necessity
good judges of character. The
tendency of tlio I minim mind , accord
ing to the revised edition , is to evil ,
and evil continuullv , and nowhere is ]
this moro clearly uomonstratcd thai
when a man is driving a sharp bar
gain. His \vholo object is to get the
-advantage of the man with whom lie
is dealing , and this is especially true' '
when ho is making n loan with
pawnbroker. 11 o tells a wonderful
.story about needing a little money ami
Jio wants an advance upon some
article "for a few daysonlj'j" when lie !
will bo back and redeem it. "Theyj
have BOO stories , all' different , " said n [
pawnbroker to a Journal reporter yesterday
"and to tlio advantage
torday , they try get -
vantage of us by cnch ono of them. '
'So by a close observance of thaii
pations the pawnbrokers soon becomcEj
able to read n man like n book , and asj
soon as ho commences his story thoyE
can toll whether ho desires to disposed
of the article ho proposes to place in'
'
pawn , for good , or redeem it when'
the time expires.
Some pawnbroker deal only in one
class of articles , as , for instance ,
olry and clothing , but the majority *
will advance money upon any article ! )
that is salable , no matter what it , mays
be. It is for this reason that a pawn-E
broker's window nnd showcase exhibit ?
such a heterogeneous collection oisi
objects useful as well as ornamental. *
A pair of shoes may repose in close
proximity to a big revolver ; n dirk
knife hang alongside a brass horn ; nL ,
fancy boclquilt bo displayed next to"
an overcoat , and so on without limit.
"Ho\v about revolvers ; are they
not put in often ? "
"Not now The country hero is :
becoming too highly en ilizcct. And !
then his honor puts the fines on too ]
heavy for carrying concealed weapons ,
and , everybody don't possess a pistol.
Occasionally a young follow will come ]
in , and , looking carefully around to
see that no one is watching him , ho
will cautiously pull put a revolver and
ask how much I will advance on it.
-Generally ho wants all ho can got , and
ho will never redeem it. "
"What articles are pawned the ]
most ! "
"Well , jewelry and clothing. People
ple will dispose of those things they
can get along without the best. Jew-
-clry is not a necessity , and people
generally have some surplus clothing.
With young men in the spring , overcoats
-coats are a favorite article for pawn
ing. They leave them in all aumme :
and in the fall take them out. The' '
coats are safe with us , and by paying
a small per cent they are taken carej
of for the boys. "
Loans are made for thirty , sixty
.and ninety days. As a rule the tim
is thirty days. Alter the time has
expired the broker is at liberty to sellj
the articles. On good , saleable articles -
cles an advance of one-half the value ]
is made ; on other articles not so good
only one-third the value is given
Some people always want much more ]
than the pawnbroker can advance and
.make himself secure , and there is
generally a process of jewing to be
gone through with before the loan is ]
Elk effected. Often the people leavi
things with no intention whatever ofj
\ -over redeeming them. With such !
the plan is to pretend that they desire !
a Joan for a few days , perhaps only a
-day or two , when they will come in
.and take them out , but they invari-i
-ably want a good advance , and the
pawnbroker at once sees what they ]
are after , and loans accordingly.
means a sale of the articles , and he' '
knons just about how much ho can ? ;
realize out of them.
While tlio reporter was talking s
man came rushing in , seemingly in a ]
great hurry , and throwing down n :
bundle on the counter , commenccdr
'
.umuappms it , and demanded of the'
broker :
"How much will you give mo upon
this ? "
"How much do you want ? " >
"I want 82.50. "
"What have you ? Oh , I see , r
, plush shawl. "
"Yes , sir , a plush shawl. I jus
paid $1.50 for it , and I want to got i
larger ono for my daughter. It is too
small for her , but I will take it out in
a day or two for my younger daugh
tor. "
In the meantime the broker had
been making a careful examination o
the shawl , and commenced tolling the
owner that ho could not give him m ;
I much.
"All right ; I can got it. I have
lived hero twonty-tivo years , and 1
can got the money. I can got $2.50
-on it , " and he began tying it up. Uy
this time his blustering spirit begai
to wear off , and ho asked the broker
how much ho would let him havo. He
replied ;
"Oh , you said you could got $2.50 ,
and you don't want to take any less
now , do you ? "
Seeing his own words were being
turned on him the impecunious but
fond parent turned away.
The broker informed the reporter
that shawls like that could bo pur
chased for $18 per dozen , The man
wanted to sell , but was trying to do it
> under another name.
While there the reporter saw an
other dicker between the youiiL' man
who , last spring , had pawned his
overcoat , and gone to Arizona. Ho
was on his way back ta Illinois , and
desired to Icavo his old coat and trade
for another which the broker had.
After a good deal of jewing the trade
vaa effected ,
Recently the same broker sold a
fine diamond ring for § 182 which had
been pawned. Not long before it
came into his possession it had bcon
r purchased in St. Louis for 8100 , In
his little room ono can find rings and
Fk watches , and gold jewelry of every
descriptipn. While the owner can
Breach thcso with ono hand ho can with
-the other take d9wn a dilupitatod
looking iiddlo with ono string ,
It is not generally known that ]
pawnbrokers are required to pay ]
license of § 100 per annum in the city.
Tn addition thereto they must give a ]
bond of § 2,000 , signed by good re
" ' i men. Thin ia to make so
II
Jgcuro all damages resulting to any per
son by reason of the broker wrong
fully purchasing or receiving in
[ pledge or deposit any stolen property ,
or the property of any minor. Thorp
are &tx pawnbrokers in this city , and
nil do a tluiving business , tlunujl
they think there are too many.
In London , England , there arc
whole streets devoted to this busi
ness , and no other kinds of trades
ucoplo are represented there.
The sign of the three gilt balls was
adopted by the tnulo because in the
distant past that was the coat of arms
worn by the house of Lombardy , an
Italian family , whoso members largelj
engaged in the pawnbroker's business ,
and uecamo immensely wealthy at it.
From these people Lombard street in
London obtained its 11:11110 : , and the
family lives in history because its
coat of arms wns adopted by this use
ful and exceedingly convcnicmt class
. ) f people.
It is hardly necessary Jo slate that
ho reporter is not in the habit of
frequenting the pawn bicker's ' shops _ ]
for the purpose of transacting busi-
less. The recent cold biiap and an
jjovidcnt necessity for tin overcoat had
"nothing nt all to do with suggesting' '
these few remarks ! Other people may' '
need the pawnbroker , but n now spa-
[ per man , never !
WILES OF THE TOBACCO MEW-
SlipperyElaiRnfiWoc lEtc , , Unctl
tis AdulterantsI I !
1'iom the Eastern Itralit. t.
Many apocryphal otpries are told off
the way plug tobacco is doctored nnds
adulterated , but , sifted down , the ; '
[ truth is fully expressed in the words
> f a prominent manufacturer :
"Nothing over goes into tobacco as ]
ilclotorious or injurious to iho'humani
constitution as the tobacco itself."i"
Nevertheless , skilled workmen com-Jj
'maud ' extraordinarily high saleriesjj
for the dexterity with which they will
Itako a cheap or damaged lot of tobac-j
[ co , and so disguise it in a wrapper as
to deceive oven an old tar.
An average plug tobacco inanuiact-
juring establishment works about 200 ,
hands. The tobacco is sorted into ]
four grades , from which arc prpduced
< is many as sevonty-fivo different
brands , the pencil of thn artist and
the skill of the photographer bein.
liberally brought into requisition for
ornamental designs to catch the toothless -
loss old man as well as the precocious
boy. While the government requires
every package to bear the stencil' '
mark of the manufacturer , it would
bo supposed th.it none but straight
Igoods would be put up ; but it is with
Itobacco as with whiskey always a
fair demand for the stall' , bo it over EO |
'vile. Licorice , oils , molasses , glucose ,
mil similar sweets are liber.illy usedi
by some manufacturers , and , while it
is certainly a cheat , it is as wellaharm-j
less one. For example : On August
29 , Virginia plug was quoted at 44i
cents. Government tax added 1C cents
yet the manufactured product was
quoted as low as 17 cents. .Evidently
the work-up of these plugs had the
tobacco chewer by the lug.
But in fine-cut tobacco and cigars !
is whore the greatest deception is ]
practiced. A western manufacture :
rays that there isno end to the adul
teration of fine-cut goods. Machin-
3ry has been BO improved that , as lies
3ays , with ono pound of tobacco liquor
obtained by boiling down stems and
refuse leaf , ono pound of rag weed
and one pound of slippery elm bark ,
55 worth of fine cut chewing tobacco !
: an bo produced. The suggestion ofj
slipper } ' elm bark was a new one , and
the inquiry was pursued farther.
Ho said it was nicely shaved and
nixed with tobacco ; that it hadapleas-
mt , _ sweet taste hel.d the tobacco to-
jetlior and made the "quid" last along
eng time. This bark costs aboutj&t ,
our cents a pound , and when a third
jf it is made to replace tobacco that
iclls as high as seyenty-fivo cents a' '
lound , ono can easily sco the onorm-HJI
) iis profit resulting. A c'ontlcmanwt
vho linows says that nearly all thc
ilippory elm trees in Ohio , Jmlianalrif
mcl Michigan have been denuded ol
heir bark , yet a leading wholesale
Iruggist affirms that 50,000 pounde ofc
ilippory elm barkwould , for the logit-
mate 'Iruggist and medicinal trade , 3
; lut the entire market of the United jj c
states. S v
In cigars , cheroots , cigarettes and S
imoking tobacco , is probably whore |
ho public gets robbed the worst. The jjl
sunning devices are so many that ovona
rood iudgos are imposed upon. It'll '
iscd to bo a boast among gentlemcnWj
hat they could always select a | (

Exhaustive Farming.
in Franc tea Call.
The people of the United .States
ro exhausting their rich heritage.
L'ho enormous grain crops which amaze
ho old world are produced at the ox-
icnso of the fields in which they
; row. The average crop of oacR year
s lower than the last , Iowa is by
omparison a now state , yet its wheat
rep is down to eight bushels an aero.
? ho August report of crops in Illi-
lois from C2 counties presented iig-
ires as follows ; Number of acres
ilantod , " 1,707,349 : total yield , ! , -
18,005 bushels ; average yield per
ere , 7i buslnls. It is understood
hat tins is not a good year , but when
.llowanco in made for specially un-
nvorublp conditions , the showing is
tot gratifying. Iowa and Illinois arc
onsidorcd the two best farming states
n the Union , They have a rich , ;
,0011 soil which for a time was ]
ufliciontly productive without
ortilizcrs. This soil attracted
ntorprising and intelligent farm-
rs from all parts of the country the
lass of farmers ono would suppose
rho would BOO the necessity of keep-
ig the condition of their land up to
n average standard , and yet with
vorything in their favor , they per-
littod their rich grain land to run
own to a pitiful eight bushels to the
cio , In England the average from ]
year to year is between 27 and HI !
bushels to the aero. But thcso stales
are not the only ones that , ngricullur-
j.Mly speaking , have gene to seed. A
largo cotton crop is produced in the
'south ' , but it takes nioro land than
formerly to produce a baK On coed
jootton lands the product hns boon
jabout ono bale to the acre. The
average the cotton country over is
about one-half a bale to the acre , lii
Ocorgia , the second in respect to the
amount of cotton produced , three
acres are required for one
bale of cotton. This is down
about to the lo ol of eight bushels
of wheat. Wo produce immensv
crops , but immense aero land are cul-
tivstod to secure the results. We
cannot go on this way forever , bring
ing now land into cultivation mid
wearing it out. In time wo shall have
to renovate. The English farmer
docs not think of permitting his land
to deteriorate. Ono condition of its' '
cultivation is , that by the use of fer-j
tilizors ho shall keep its yielding capa
city up to the standard. But there
at * in the older ntatcs signs of a botUr
state of tilings. While funnels who
_ try to cultivate quarter and half sec-
jjtions are scarcely koepimr even with
| the world , niimll fannors n gettingj
U'ich. In Mississippi the number
? of plantations has nearly doubled
rjnitliiu ten yeais , with an average of
Sleus than two hundred acres in place
got almost four hundred. Othorsouth-
geiu states are at last learning that
jthcro is nioro money in a small lot of
Jliuul well tilled than in a large farm
jiuore CAielessly cultivated , hi this
state , farmers have been especially as-
piling. Every man has seemed to
want to bo his own neighbor. Eaot-
'cm ' people are sometimes moved to
2iivy by stories of the immense tracts ]
under ono management , but it is not
on these largo ranches that the mono }
: is made. In a good year a wheat-
grower who runs his ranchmen over ,
20 or ! JO thousand acres may make
'small ' fortune , but how does ho fai
the next year. How many larg
wheat - growers have bccoino ricji
How nnny have failed to moot thei
obligations ? But the small farmer
in this state have boon uniformly sue
[ cessful. From ton to forty aero
( planted with a varied arpp is as sure
source of.a comfortable income as thi
earth can afford. The outlook fo
[ such farms is becomining better over
year. There is a more certain marko
'or fruit and vegetables tha' '
was looked for five j'cars ago. Ii
most cases , men who are trying t
inanago largo farms would find it t
fheir own interest to abandon half c
them , if purchasers could not b
tound , rather than to try to cultivate
the whole.
