CIGARETTES FLOURISH STATISTICS SHOW ALARMING IN CREASE IN USE OF “PILL." Efforts of Anti-Cigarette Forces In 1910 Balked by Increase of 1,856,- 487,308 Cigarettes in Coun try’s Output. New York. —Like a tack in a taxi cab tire comes the news that the ef forts of the anti-cigarette forces had no other result in 1910 than to in crease the output of cigarettes in this country by some 1,856,478,308 of the little cousins of my Lady Nicotine. Except to freshmen and sophomores of “frats,” where pipes are frowned upon, the idea of one billion, eight hundred and fifty-six million, four hun dred and eighty-seven thousand, three hundred and eight cigarettes is a mere mythoplastic figure, flexed to fit the fancy of the mathematical mind. For the benefit of all citizens not ia eluded in the foregoing these statis tics are furnished. Taking the aver age length of an honest cigarette at two and one-half inches, the increase for 1910, if placed end to end, would make a string 73,403 miles in length. This would be sufficient to build an unbroken line of cigarettes around the world, and then third track the system. These, be it understood, are cigarettes of American make, from the native straight cuts of Virginia to the actual and only “pills” smoked by the sultan, and made somewhere down in Greenwich street. No one in the trade know why there has been an increase. Probably boys who read novels have more money, says one. That the increase is due to the fact that hotels provide smoking rooms for women is denied. Dealers do point to the increase in the enrollment at the larger schools and colleges as a possible factor. BULL TERRIER FIGHTS BULL After a Furious Battle Both Succumb to Wounds, but the Bull Dies First. New York. —A fight to the death be tween a thoroughbred English buli terrier and a Holstein bull took place at the stock farm of Eben Grover, at New Durham, N. J. The dog was a perfect specimen of the breed and was valued at $750. It took a dislike to the bull, a $1,500 animal, immedi ately after the latter was brought to the farm. The other night the bull w as placed in a large box stall. When an employee opened the door the dog slipped in and in two seconds the bat tle was on. The dog whirled about the stall with lightning speed, leaping at the _ bull’s throat with snapping teeth. Twice the dog was pinned against the wall of the stall by the horns of the brute, but finally by a quick spring sank its teeth in the throat of the bull. The great animal, roaring with pain, swung the little dog about and dashed its body against the walls, but it would not let go. The battle had raged for an hour and Grover, with his sons, had en tered the stall twice at the peril of their lives when the huge bull sank to his knees and toppled over dead. The dog, loosening its hold for the first time, limped into a corner of the stall and died within a few minutes Grover’s right leg was badly torn by the dog's teeth. A SAVINGS BANK ON WHEELS Paterson, N. J., Has Novelty in Shape of Auto Bank, Fire, Bul let and Burglar Proof. Paterson, N. J. —The city of Pater son now r has a bank on wheels. It is fire-proof, bullet-proof and burglar proof, and can travel 50 miles an hour when being chased by would-be loot ers. This auto-bank is expected to revolutionize the banking business especially in the outlying districts. The car is fitted up with desks and compartments for books, checks and papers. A solid steel safe is in one corner of the machine. A small win dow guarded with heavy steel and brass bars and a liberal supply of fire arms. afford the clerks protection from “hold up” men. Officers of the trust company arc of the opinion that the sending of the “bank” through the country will be welcomed by depositors, especially those who have no place for keeping cash or other valuables in their homes or business places. I Church Fosters Love-Making. St. Louis. —A big club parlor with easy chairs and cozy corners, ad vantageous shadows, a gas log and chimney hearth, are the agents with which the Rev. J. B. Toomay, pastor ? of the Fountain Park Congregational church, will stimulate social activities among folks of his community. The club will be in the basement of the church, and there will be no chape rons, overseers or restrictions and pro hibitions. “The young people of my congrega tion are presumed to conduct them selves properly,” said Dr. Toomay. “Love-making is natural and proper. I expect the young folks to act prop erly.” Joke Lands Him in Jail. Sioux Falls, S. D.—As the result of a practical joke a barber living at Artesian has been arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct because he partially shaved the head of a resi dent of the town, the complaining wit ness against the barber being the wife j of the individual thus decorated. Strong Hold. Bill —Experiments with thousands of subjects have shown that the aver age man attains his maximum strength in this thirty-first year. Jill —A woman’s strong age is twen ty-eight, I suppose. “Why?” “Haven’t you noticed how they hold on to it?” —Yonkers Statesman. A Gallant Man. “Mr. Townman, I am heading a movement looking toward the beau tifying of our city; will you not work shoulder to shoulder with me?” “With pleasure, madam.” “Then the movement has your ap proval?” “Yes. madam, and the shoulder.” Double Pointed. “Say, I don’t know just how to take Miss Cutting’s comment on my sing ing.” “What did she say?” “She said Caruso’s voice was excel lent, but mine was better still.”—Lip pincott’s. Forewarned. The New Teller —I can’t cash this check, madam, unless you are identi fied. Lady— But my husband is the cashier of this bank. “Yes, I know —he just warned me against you.”—Life. A Sufficiency. The Cynic—l suppose she is all the world to you? The Lover —Not exactly; but she’s all I want of it —5,000 acres and an Elizabethan mansion.—London Opin ion.
