SPURIOUS SCENTS—OLD SHOES CONVERGED INTO JAMAICA RUM.

How Tomato Catsup, Gum Drops, Candies and French Wines are Made— Stcrets of the Mysteries RevealeJ—Cheerful Information for Consumers.

The N. Y. Sunday Evening Journal says it is perhaps not known to many readers that some of the finest scents and flavors are derived from what the world calls impurities, decaying and refuse matter of various kinds. The investigations of census takers reveal many strange transformations of matter, chemically and otherwise, not dreamed of in natural philosophy. The statistics show that manufactured products in New York have increased since the last enumeration $75,000,000. Among the new and strange industries disco ved, the following are named: It was found, for instance, that some use was of old shoe|, but exactly what use was hard to finuout. Largo numbers of old shoes were sold by ragpickers to certain men, who disposed of them at a good price. It is known that bits of old leather make the commercial article known as Prussian blue, but only a few firms manufacture it and the new call for old shoes was evidently for some other purposes. In New York city and Brooklyn about throe million pairs of old shoes are thrown away every year. Formerly old shoes were plentiful in the gutters of certain neighborhoods now it appears that they are sought after as choice prizes in the ragpicker's line. By dint of persevering inquiry it was discovered that the old shoes were used for three purposes: First, all shoes not completely worn out, are patched, greased and after being otherwise regenerated, sold to men who deal in such wares. Sonfe persons wear one shoe much more than the other these'dealers find mates for Hhocs whose ori Secondly,tho & are cut up into used for patching other shoes, and the worthless bits, the soles and cracked "uppers," are converted into Jamaica rum by a process known only to the manufacturers. It is said that they are boiled in pure spirits and allowed to stand for a few weeks, the product far surpassing the Jamaica rum mttde with essence, burnt sugar and spirits.

A gentleman wlio doubted the truth of tins story stopped recently at a low

factory

prog'shop in tho neighborhood of the spoken of, ana inquired if they had any rum made from old shoes. "No," said tho barkeeper, "we don't keep it much now tho druggists, who want a pure article, all sell It, and the price has gone up. But wo have had it, and wo can get you some if you want it." How many old shoes go to a gallon of ruin could not le ascertained. It has been noticed by somedeputies that while manufacturers aro quite willing to put a valuation upon their manufactured product, they hesitate about stating the value of the raw material, and even return the schedules with the space for the value of raw material left blank. In one instance a manufacturer of tomato catsup returned a report giving the value of his manufactured product at §18,000, and the valuo of his raw material at nothing.

His explanation was as follows: Every year in the canning season ho sends to all the wholesale houses which make a business of canning tomatoes clean tubs, with|the understandnig that tho women who trim and peel shall throw the skins and parings into those tubs every day these tubs aro removed tho stuff is then ground up, fermented flavored and sold as tomato catsup to tho extent of $1S,000. Another singular aud decidedly jiernicious business is the manufacture on a large scales of 4ienp candies from white earth, or terra alba, mixed with a little sugar and glucose. Tiie deputy who investigated the confectionery business reports that Boventy-rtvo por cent of some candies is composod of these substances, and such candy, notably gum drops contains still less sugar. The effect of white earth upon the stomachs of the unfortunate children who buv these candies is yet to be determined ny future autopsies.' "What is called a'tino brand of Castile soap has lieon found to ho composed chiellv of this white earth and greaso, but tho evil effects of such an imposture are trifling compared to the results of tunning childreu-s stomachs into miniature pottery works. Among the new industries which havo sprung into existence during the last few years is the nystem of finishing in this city* of foreign goods imported in an unfinished condition. Foreign articles composed of several parts aro now largelv finished in this city, tho parts calling for hand-labor Unng imported, while those calling for machine work aro made here. In this way heavy duties are saved, although the articles are sold as imported goods.

Tho manufacture of spurious and adulterated articles is not confined to New York alone, for we find by the French journals that the question of adulterated aud manufactured wines is greatly agitating the French wine merchants, \vno have petitioned the government to intercede in their behalf by such legal enactments as will effectually prohibit and prevent the manufacture of artificial wines, the petitioners asserting that not one-third of the wine used in Paris is made of grapes. The manv Americans who turn ugjheir noses at the juice of our own grapes will naturally wonder what the spurious French wines are made of. The petition of the French wine merchants savs that there are a number of large factories near Paris it. which wines are made from rotten apples, damaged dried fruit of all kinds, ieets, and spoiled molasses. But there are uot enough of these materials to make as much wine as is required by foreign trade. Turnip juice has been worked over into wine, and American cuter is the basis of millions of bottles of champagne, but good apples and turnips are too costly to be wasted on cheap wines, such as most Americans buv. Some of the temperance societies might find the returns they are after bv satisfying public curiosity about what wines arc made of.

FREEZING TO DEATHS

THE SENSATIONS THAT A MAN FEELB WHEN HE DIES OF COI.D.

Leadville Chronicle.

The readers of the Chronicle will remember that nearly a month ago a man was found in an unconscious condition in a little cabin in California gnlch. He was at first thought dead, but those who lifted him up found that he was still alive, but almost froeen. In this condition he was taken to the Sister's hospital where it was found necessary, to save his life, to amputate his Iteft foot at the ankle*and tjie toes of the right. He stood the operation bravely, and in spite of a great nervous and physical prostration, ne rallied, and was dischvrged a few days ago to battle on crutches with the wide, wide world—an uneven warfare, indeed. While he still lay at the hospital a Chronicle reporter, on his rounds, one day, happened into the building, and ultimately found himself at the bedside of the man who had narrowly escaped a frozen death. The sufferer was a quick, intelligent young man, and seemed glad to enter into conversation. In the course of this he narrated in a graphic way his experience in the lonely cabin. In substance he said: "I was three miles up the gulch the afternoon before, looking after some prospect holes I had up there, and didn't start for home until quite late. I had no more than started when the snow began to fall, and in fifteen minutes the storm was in full fury. I knew the way well, but the fierceness of the storm alarmed me, and the snow fell so thick and fast that all landmarks were blotted out, and it was utterly impossible to see more than twenty feet befose one's face. My principal guide had been a trail made by the burro's feet, but the thick white mantle that speedily covered the earth so entirely obscured this that I had no earthmeans of knowing whether or not I was on the right path. After wandering blindly for half an hour I became convinced that I was not, and, in fact, the extremely rough and rocky nature of the path gave me warning that I had strayed far from the proper route. Up to this time I had forced persistently ahead, but there I stopped, my back to the gusty wind, and tried to calmly consider the situation. Taking the extreme supposition that I had walked in an exactly opposite direction from the right one I could not be over four miles from home, but in the blinding storm I had no assun^nee whether I would be right in walking back or forward, right or left, but finally at random chose the first and continued my journey straight ahead. Up to this time I had felt no cold, but when I stopped to think, the warmth created by my active exertions died away, and I began to feel severely the biting air. Besides this the temperature was plainly falling lower and even my warm breath began to congeal in brittle icicles in my beard and on my scarf, just in front of my mouth. Still I walked briskly on, but somehow my utmost exertions failed to circulate my blood and warm me as it had before. Ten minutes later I began to feel stinging pains in my feet and hands, and the numbness that invariably follows extreme cold. It was about'this time that I noticed my eyes seemed swollen and the lids so heavy that I had difficulty in opening thom.

When they wore closed a constant succession of brilliant lights flashed before me and presently lights began to appear when they were open. In every direction I seemed to see them—green, purile, red, blue and golden—until with ifllculty I could trace the outline of my hand as I held it before my faco. I staggered before—I reeled now—and when I ressed my benumbed fingers to my ace I found it covered with frozen tears. By this time the pains in my limbs ana feet had grown to the most intense agony. Tho pricking sensation felt at first was gone now, and iu its

?rom

lace

J. felt a long, steady, keen pain, as a great open wound. At the time Igro place

my way to a little sheltered noath some socks and pulled my

mittens off in a vafii attempt to warm my hands by friction. The flesh was erfectly livid and blue in place*, as if it ad already began to decompose. The nails were deep olue, aud quantities of blood seemed to have settlea directly beneath them. Finding it impossible to create any warmth, I rose to my feet and walked on, resolving to die, if die I must, in a desperate struggle.

The prismatic colors had now faded before my eyes to long parallel baita that seemed to stretch from the horizon. As I walked taster I noted, too, with joy that the pain in my feet was not nearly so intense as before, I attributed this to tho rapid circulation of the blood, but was sadlv deceived, for when I stooped down anil touched my foot it responded no more to tho touch of my fingers than a block of marble. It was perfectly dead. Up to this time my mental sufferings had equaled my physical, but with my stiffening body my mind seemed to grow dull and torpid, too. Presently I felt no more pain, ami *a heavy and drowsy sensation substituted itself. This grew stronger, aud I felt as though it would be heaven itself to sink down into one of the snowdrifts and go to sleep. A most delicious sense of lassitude and tired ease began to creep over me, and it seemed as if Uie warm breath of summer were playing in my face. I knew dimly and vaguely, as one knows things in a "dream, that I was freezing to death, but had no care or anxiety about it whatever. My outstretched hands struck against something. It was the door of a cabin—my own, although I did not know it—and, falling in, I rolled upon the floor.

The next thing I remember was a sense of awful pain, and opening my eyes I could see people rubbing me with snow, and screamed and begged them to desist, The pain grew keener and more intense, and it seemed as if my whole frame was being rasped apart. I felt this pain fsr davs, and then they cut off my feet. The doctors said that teu short minutes more would have made n:e a frozen corpse.

At Louisville a nun, Sister Mary Funk laid by the veil of the sister to don that of the bride, becoming.Mrs. Hillerbrand after a fifteen minutes' courtship. At Grinsville, Pa., a widower of fifty, Mr. Smith, married the daughter of the widow Snvder, aged twenty-one, while his son, aged twentv-four, married the widow, aged forty-two, thus mixing those families up something after the manner of those in "Little Toddleskins." Matrimonial tangle came before the Philadelphia Courts in September, when Mr. George S. Walker's step-sister married Mr. Edward Bernard, and after some twenty vears Mr. Walker married his step sister's daughter, becoming her husband's brother-in-law and step-son-in-law. The argument was made against Mr. Walker's detention that there was no law which prevented an uncle from marrying his niece, while there was an act which makes it an offense for a niece to marry her uncle, and it was further contended that the father should have caused the arrest of his daughter, and even then as her husband was only a step brother of the girl's brother, it was not strictlv within the meaning of the

MATRIMONIAL ODDITIES.

SOME CURIOUS MARRIAGES AND EPISODES AT WEDDINGS OF RECENT OCCURRENCE.

New York World.

There have been recorded of late several weddings notable because of the age of one or both of the contracting parties. Thus, a traveler through Monroe county, Ky., found a prosperous household composed of a husband of sixteen and a wife ef eleven, and a census enumerator in Troup county, Ga., discovered a husband of twelve living peaceably and happily on the farm of his biixom wife of thirty-six. At Paisley, Scotland, Mrs. Kilgour, aged eighty-four married her fifth husband, James Finlavson, aged thirty-six.

At Stillwater, Me., on the 24th of April, Captain J. R. Blen, a dashing young cavalry officer of the war of 1812, now eighty-seven years of age, led Miss M. C. Johnson, a blushing bride of six-ty-five, to *the altar. At Pomport, France, M. Castang, one of Napoleon'i voterans, wedded, at the age of eightyseven, a woman of fifty-six. It is onh a few weeks since Dr. Close, Dean ol Carlisle, then eighty-four, married Mrs Hodgson, who is past seventy-five. The wedding at Cannes, July 16th, of Father Bruery, an Ex-Catholic priest, to Mile, Vernet, aged thirty-three, would have been better worth recording if he .had been ninety-three, but the cabls tacked forty vears on to his age.

At fhoenix, in this State, a year ago Mr. Vena Roberts, aged sixty, married spinster of sixty-five. They had been courting for some years, and became at last so impressed with the advantages of earlv marriage that, when on the road to church they met another clergyman, they stood up" in their sleigh ana were duly joined by him, standing on the seat of tiis pung. In September last the com ing marriage of the widow of a million aire banker, Mr. J. B. Martin, of Milwaukee, and Mr. F. G. Tibbets, a Philadelphia banker, was announced. Said the report: "Mr. Tibbets is seventy years of age and Mrs. Martin sixty-eight years. Mrs. Martin controls about $2,000,000 worth of property in Milwaukee. On her husband's death-bed he requested that she would marry Mr. Tibbets, who was her first lover when the two were too poor to marry, Mr. Tibbets has remained an old bachelor all his life."

In Brooklyn, Antonio Tesoriere, aged twenty-nine years, married Mrs. Catherine Schaffer, aged sixty, but this marriage was to settle a suit for breach of promise.

Iu February last Mr. Sidney Shores a wealthv farmer of Somerset county, Md., agecf forty-five, married his stepdaughter, Louella Shores, his dead wife's child by her first husband, his own uncle so that Mrs. Shores thus was wife, stepdaughter and first cousin all in one. The marriage was declared void by the courts, and Shores was fined $500 and costs.

The following, by the way, are the legal marriageable ages of different countries of Europe: Austria, 14 years for both sexes Hungary—Catholic, males 14 females, 12 —Protestants, males, 18, females, 15 Russia, males, 18 females, 16 Turkey, no legal limit Italy, males, 18 females, 15 Prussia, males, 18 females, 14 France and Belgium, males, 18 females, 15 Greece, males, 14 females, 12. In Switzerland it varies according to the cantons, males from 14 to 20 and females 12 to 17.

Two marriages of dwarfs were recent ly reported at Rochester, N. Y. "Colonel" Reuben Steere, who is thirty-three years old and thirty-four inches high, was united to Miss Rebecca Ann Myers, second soprano of the Liliputian Opera Company, six years younger than her husband', and one inch shorter. "Admiral" Dot, "General" Totman, Miss Jennie Quigley and Miss Sadie nelton acting as groomsmen and bridesmaids. This marriage, however, looms into insignificance Deside the union at Kiel of the "Marquis," a gentleman of thirty, weighing nineteen pounds, and the "Marchioness Lilli," a lady of 22, weigh ing thirteen pounds. Although both were of German birth, their "routes" through life and in the show business lay apart, but they fell in love through reading newspaper notices of each other, and thus were led to join their hands, hearts and shows. A curious marriage at Nashville was that of a one-legged man and a monolimbed woman another took place in Traverse county, Mich., when a man completed his union with a family by wedding the widowed mother of his two dead wives.

success we aw not aware.

In Brooklyn last year the marriage of brother and sister was annulled it had been contracted through theii mother's concealing their relationship Irom them (thev had been brought up apart), so thafthev believed they w*ere eousins and got married during her absence in Europe to give her a joyful suiprise. On the 16th of October last the gdfden wedding was celebrated in Milatn County, Texas, of a couple whose names at least were mixed curiouslv. On the 16th of October, 1830, in Caldwell Cotnty, Ky., Drurv Mitehuson Kevil married Lucretia 5litchuson Kevil, and %he became Lucretia Kevil Mitehtson Kevil. Thev arc not at all related. He was born in 1778, in Kentucky,and naued for the father of his future wife, and she was born in South Carolina in 181», and named for the mother of her future husband. At Moulton, Lincolnshire, ntt long ago was celebrated a romanic unbn. In 1840 Thomas Griggs became engaged to Elizabeth Goodyear but debilitating illness overtook the kride elect, which so completely prostrated her that she took to her bed and kept fc for thirty years. In the meantime Thotuas Griggs Waited patiently for her recovery, but in 1

«*•, despairing of this, he fed another young woman to Elixabett's bedside and received from her permission to marrv this fresh acquaintance. Thomas forthwith married. Imt after five years of wedded life he became aud remained a widower until last fall, wpen his old sweetheart recovered her health and the use of her limbs as curiously as she had lost than* w.'nt to church wi(h him and was married. %.

CHILDREN'S CHATTER,

When the Sunday school superintendent asked Ids class why Moses smote the rock a little fellow sung out: "I reckon he missed the feller he aimed at.."

Putting it neatly: Said the little pet of the household on her last birthday: "Its a lovely doll, dear grandpa and grandma but—I've been hoping it would be twins."

A little girl of 12 years, the daughter of a clergyman, was asked: "Sadie, does yonr papa ever preach the same sermon twice?" After thinking a moment, Sadie replied: "Yes, I think he does, but I think he hollers in different places."

The following conversation took place between a kind hearted lady and a small boy who politely swung open the gate for her. "Ah, what a nice polished, polite little boy you are. I suppose you live about here" "You lie—I don't!" —Teacher—"John, what are your boots made of?" Boy—"Leather.1 "Where does the leather come from? "From the hide of the ox." "What animal, therefore, supplies you with boots and gives you meat to eat?" "My father."

A little girl living down town was saying her prayers the other evening, and had just finished "give us this day our daily bread," when a precious 4-year-old brother exclaimed: "Say tookies, Mamy!" "Ben," said a doting parent to his gormandizing son, "do you really think you ean eat the whole of that pudding with impunity?" "I don't know, pop replied the young hopeful, "but I can with a spoon." That boy cannot anchor himself quite so comfortably now. The old man has a terrible arm and the strap was stout.

There is a judge in Galveston whose head is as bald as that of an American eagle. A little boy living next door has got it into his head that lack of hair is inseparably connected with the title of judge consequently when a lawyer, whose head is densely covered with hair, called and was addressed as "judge," little Tommy shook his head and said: "You ain't no judge. Can't fool me" "Why am I no judge?" -"Cos yer hair ain't parted wide enough," was the guileless reply.

A Cleveland man whose reputation for uprightness was not proportionate to his great wealth, erected a very handsome vault in the cemetery. It excited considerable comment, and a friend of the family speaking to the youngest, aged four, said: "How would you like to be buried there?" "I would not like it I wants to be buried in the ground." "Why asked his questioner. "Because when the devil comes for Pap, he might take me by mistake.

WITTY AND TR UE.

Some of the sayings of that pious but witty clergyman, Rev. Rowland Hill, were remarkable for hitting the nail on the head. Not another blow was needed to drive it home.

Being very much grieved at the conduct of some of his congregation, who were frequently unpunctual, he once offered the following prayer: "O Lord, bless those who are in their places, have mercy on those who are on the road, and save those wbp are getting ready to come."

He once said of a man who knew the truth, but seemed afraid to preach it in its fullness: "He preaches the truth as a donkey mumbles a thistle—very cautiously."

On a wet day a number of persons took shelter in his chapel, during a heavy shower, while he was preaching he remarked. Many people are blamea for making their religion a cloak, but I do not think those are much better who make it an umbrella."

Entering the house of one of his congregation, he saw a child on a rockin~ horse "Dear me," exclaimed the age minister, "how wondrously like some Christians there is motion, but no progress."

A professed Christian, who was addict ed to drinking, asked him impertinently, "Now do you think, Mr. Hill, that a glass of spirits would arive religion out of my heart?" "No," he answered, "for there is none in it."

A lady who professed religion, but whose aaily practice was not in harmony with it, once said to him, "I am afraid lest, after all, I shall not be saved." "I am glad to hear you say so," replied Mr. Hill, "for I have beeij long afraid for you, I assure you."
