SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 71 1.691. dated octeberai, i902.

application filed April 2s. 1902.

To aZZ whom it may con/cern,.-

Beit known that' I, ROBERT N'. B ARGER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hopedale, in the county of Tazewell and State of Illinois, haveinvented certain new and useand I do hereby declare the following to bea the art to which it appertains tomake and use the'same. .l

My inventionrelates to certain new and useful improvements'i'n pipes or smokingtubes; and it has for its objects to provide a receptacle and av tobacco cartridge having such relation to each other as to be readily brought togetherin operative condition and so that the burned tobacco shall not unduly heat the receptacle or pipe, and so that thelatter Awill retain and prevent the fall of the ashes resulting from the burning of the tobacco.

Wit-h these vends and objects-inv lview my invention consists of a tubular receptacle closed at one end and provided with a removable mouthpiece at the opposite end and a the closed end of `lthe receptacle and the terior of the receptacle, the receptacle ,being provided with air-ducts adjacent to the mouthpiece, as will be hereinafter and in detail described. l

In order' that those skilled in the art -to which my invention appertains may know how to make and use the same, I will proceed to describe-its construction and the manner in which it is used, referring by letters to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1y is a plan View of my improved pipe or smoking-tu be made in illustration of tudinal section of the same. Fig. 3 is a trans- Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the tobacco cartridge; and Fig. 5 is a similar view of a modified form of the cartridge. shown at Fig. 4.

Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in the several gures of the drawings.'

A representsa receptacle, preferably in the made of Wood or any'other desirable `or suitable material. This receptacle is formed with sen-ai no. 104.287. (No model.)

a closed end B andv with a longitudinal cavity4 C for'thereception of a tobacco cartridge or shell D. The end ol, the receptacleA-opporeceive a mouthpiece F, -which is correspondingly threaded. Adjacent to the mouthpiece F the receptacle is provided with a suitable number of radial ducts G, through which air is admitted to the interior of the receptacle. The cartridge or shell D is made of clay or other suitable material and is preferably of vcylindrical form andopen at both ends, and

when lled or loaded with tobacco the ends are temporarily closed by paper or other bands H. This shell 0r cartridge is of less diameter than the longitudinal cavity'O of the receptacle A in order that a circumferential airspace may exist'between the cartridge or shell D and the receptacle, and the length of the cartridge or shell is such that when the mouthpiece F is in place one end of the shell shall be in con tact with the iuner end of said mouthpiece and the opposite end in contact with the closed end of? the receptacle A, and the outer end of said shell is formed with lateral channels I, com municating with the air-space between the shell and the receptacle, as clearly indicated at Fig. 2. .The shellDmay,

if desired, be formed with longitudinal cor-4 rugations, as shown at Fig. 5, in order to increase the air-space between the same and the receptacle.

While I have shown the open end lof thetub'e or receptacle A provided with a screwthreaded-ring or col-lar E, adapted to receive the screw-threaded end of the mouthpiece F,

-it will be understood' that the said mouthwith 'tobacco or any other material which it is desired to smoke, is placed within the cavity C of the receptacle after the contents of the shell have been ignited at the outer end.' The mouthpiece F is then connected -with the open end of the receptacle in such manner as to make a substantially air-tight connection with the end of the shell and to cause the op- IOO posite end to contact with the closed end of the receptacle, as clearly shown. In this condition when air is exhausted through the mouthpiece the external oxygen surrounding the receptacle A is drawn in through the radial ducts G and travels toward the closed end o f said receptacle to produce combustion of the tobacco and at the same time to prevent the heating of the receptacle, and iu an obvious manner the smoke resulting from combustion is drawn into the mouth of the smoker.

It will be understood that I do not Wish to be limited to any special design or proportion of the smoking tube or receptacle A or to the material of which it may be Vmade, nor do I wish to be limited to any particular manner of connecting said tube or receptacle with the mouthpiece. ned to theexact design or material of the shell or cartridge Dso lons: as the relation between the receptacle, the shell, and the mouthpiece is such that the external oxygen is caused to travel between the shell and receptacle to keep the latter cool and to assist the combustion of the contents of the shell or cartridge.

What I claim as new,4and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

Neither do I wish to be con- 1. In combination with the receptacle A, formed with a longitudinal cavity and one closedend and with a removable mouthpiece and radial air-ducts adjacent to said mouth? piece, a shell or cartridge confined between the closed end of the receptacle and the mouthpiece and with lateral channels at the outer end communicating with the air-space between said shell and the receptacle, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

2. The receptacle A provided with a longitudinal cavity adapted to receive a tobaccocontaining shell or cartridge, said receptacle being closed at its outer end and formed with radial air-ducts near its opposite end adapted to receive a removable mouthpiece, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

3. In combination with the receptacle A, and mouthpiece F, constructed and connected as described the shell D, formed with .longitudinal corrugations and lateral channels I, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature 4in presence of two witnesses.

ROBERT N. RARGER.
