Canada Bill.

'Gentlemen!', It was on a Midland Pacific train,the writer was about hall-way between Nebraska Csty and Liucoln, and every seat in the smoking-car was occupied In fact, it might be said that the train to which the aforesaid smoking-car was attached was one of the longest that had ever rolled over that well-worked and well-conducted frontier highway, Th" State Fair was to open on the fol lowing day, and it was advertised to be the greatest enterprise of the kind the State of Nebraska bad ever attempted Farmers, stock-raisers, merchants, !dlers, gamblers and newspapermen formed the party which occupied the smoking car, while some of the green est-looking and greenest-acting crowd of countrymen that ever danced at "corn-shacking" were strolling from one end of the train to the other, in vesting in pop-eorn, oranges and dime novels whenever Peanuts came in their vicinity. They seemed to be well supplied with ready cash, $nd to the eyes of a newspaper reporter they had painful as well as disagreeable habit of showing it whenever au opportunity occurred. AU were in high spirits, as they anticipated a week of enjoyment at tbe Capital. But somebody opened the door, and a deep voice repeated the word, 'Gentlemen.'

BKWAitB.

He spoke loud enough to be heard by everybody in the car, and the eyes of all were tamed in tbe direction of tbe speaker. It was tbe oonductor, and as soon as be saw that all were listening, he continued:

I want to caution every man on this train. There area number of three-card monte men aboard. Among thfrn is the notorious Canada Bill. I am not at liberty to put any man off, as my instructions are not to that ofTeot. If there is any money lost the company will not bold itself responsible. 1 caution you for your own sake.'

Canada Bill,' 'Canada Bill,' was board in whispered tones all around. Tbe countrymen pressed their wallets closer In their bands merchants feared to meet tbe magnetic oye of the man some left Lbe car, and a few Chioago drum mora laughed and swore tbat Canada Bill, or any other rough, could not win money from them.

BNTBR THB WOLFK.

A seedy-looking man, heavily whiskered and with a sorrowful and dreary look, stood by tho conductor as be spoke. He seemed to tako in every word of the conductor's remarks, and when the latter left the car, be attracted the attention of the now rather exoltid crowd by saying:

Yes, G— d— him, ho is on this yer train. I knotted he be around.' He seemed to be speaking to himself, and as he was au awkward-looking man, a drover to all appearances, the crowd listened attentively. He oontlnued directing bia voice to a few farmers who wore sitting tiwar him. 'I knowed it. I alters knowed it. 1 was on this yer road a week ago to-morrow, and he was beim. I knowtd he'd be here to-day. I wait ter see bltii. He beat me out of three tbousaud dollars with his infernal three keerd monte game. I wan to see him do it agin. I've got a stako now friends, and ir that ther Kenader Bill os on this yer train I want him to step out like a man. I'll lose or win. I ve lost money before, aud never squoaled. I squeal now because I think lean bent htm. I'm dogon'd ef 1 dwn't know I ken beat him. I want to see him, any how.'

By this time he was snrroanded by a oruwd of passengers. Now, my good man,' remarked a Chicago drummer, 'that game oan't be beaten. You had better keep your money.'

No, sir no, alree bob. I have Jeat one thousanter lose, and I says I'll lose or win, and you nee I know how its done.'

THB STOOL-FIOSON.

Hero, stranger, now, honeet,'calmed in a greeny, 'kin yer beat bin, honest, now, do yer think yer kin beat him?'

Wahl, I kent say I ken bet him. Now, bere,' and be palled from hie pocket a dirty pack of cards, 'I've looked this thing clar' through and through, and I'll bet any man in Nebraska tbat loan win every time, I'U show you bow it's done.'

He selected three cards, and commeftoed to shuffle them. The interest became intense. Some of tbe men stood up on the seats and looked over tho sbouldem of tbe other*. Rven the dignified merchants were anxious to see what waa going on. He shuffled them very awkwardly, and when he bad them arranged on the back of tbe seat be aald:

Now, gentlemen, I don't want to bet with any of you, "cause I want ter see Kenada Bill, but, just for fun, now you,' speaking to a verdant youth, who atood with bla mouth wide open, 'you lift a card.'

He did so. It was tbe ace of hearts. Now,' said tbe dismal-looking matt, 'pot it baok And it vraa put back. 'Now, watch tne*' He shuffled the eards again.

Now, gentlemen all, I don't want to win any money, 1 only want my own out of Kenada BUI, but ef eny of ye think ye know where that aoeof hearts

is new, want to lose ten dollars by batting that don't.' He leaned back and looked xathough he knew it couldn't be done. He waa tbe very peraootfieatioo of a aeir-satla-fied man, who bad atinek a good thing and there was no way of getting around it

Every pereon in the ring waa silent. No one neemed to want to bet, butthry all looked aa though they could put their finger on that identical card. At last an elderly-looking gent made tbe feet visible that he was getting excited. Re first put hie hand down to the elbow in his pantaloon pocket, left It there a moment, put it down again and pulled it out with a jerk again. owrruto sown TO nvsutnas.

Stranger,' said be «t last, «I may be mistaken, hat I think I ooald win your ten dollars.*

The excitement grew more and more

said the old gentleman. Tbe bet was made—tbe old tn*u won Wail, good-bye, stranger. I've got to get off at tbe next station, but I'll see yon again,'and the lucky old gen tleman took hts seat, his face beaming with smiles.

There were others that wanted to Ho some winning, and the man who knew be could win 'every clip' was not satis tied. One or two countrymen bet dollar each, and won. The betting grew heavier. The dismal man would win occasionally. As the game grew more exciting, be won oftener, and before we arrived at Lincoln he won every time. Every man in tbe car had made a bet, and every man had lost something some of them all they had. Tbe dixmal man got off tbe train at tbe A. aud N. Junction. Tbe old man followed, and one greenish, conntry-look-iHK young ru&n followed the old gentleman. The train moved toward tbe city,'and there was not a word to be beard issuing from tbe mouth of any one. Ail looked as if they had just beard some very bad news. The con doctor came into tbe car, looked around, smiled and said: 'Gentlemen, remember I cautioned you I can see by the way yoa look that Canada Bill has been here.'

It is almost unnecessary to remark that Canada Bill had been there, and tbat he was tbe dismal man, and we can see no reason for our saying tbat the old gentlemen and tbe greenish-look-ing young men were bis 'pards.'

Although we bad heard of Canada Bill a thousand times, and often wondered at tbe tales that were told about him, yet this was an introduction to the man. Oh yes it only cost us five dollars for tbe pleasure afforded.

WOW WB KNOW MOBS ABOUT HIM* Canada Bill has made a name for himself. No matter how he has done it, or what kind of a man it is, the bare mention of it throughout the West is ever sure to draw out an anecdote lrom somebody. Tbe stories tbat are told about him would fill a book as large as Webster's Unabridged.

There was a merchat, and we believe there is yet, who resided and did business at St. Joseph, Mo. He was a member of a fashiouable church, respectable in every way, temperate in his hab its, never swore, and taught a class in Sunday School. This gentleman had occasion to take a trip to Omaha for the purpose of collecting a large sum of money—$10,000 it is said—and as it was Christmas time, and be was anxious to return as soon as possible, he hurried up his work and was at the station ready to take tbe train for St. Joseph long before schedule time. He happened to meet a young fellow whom be trmerly knew in tbe latter city, and as tbe young man had told him be was also going down to St. Joseph to spend

Christinas, they kept together closely all the evening. The young man expressed bis desire to adjourn to the nearest saloon and take a drink. To this tbe merchant objected. The younx man said be would have to go alone then, as be must have a drink. Tbe inerchaet knew he was in a bad local!tv, and he dared not remain alone in the waiting-room. He said be guessed he'd go, but be wouldn't take anything. Th*y went Into tbe saloon. One took a lemonade, tbe other a whisky-cocktail. Tho young man suggested that as they could hear tbe traiu when it baoked up, that it would be more comfortable to take a seat and wait until time was ap, in tbe saloon. They talked about old times and business and everything. The merchant arose and thought it about time the train was starting.

What train asked tbe bar-keeper. 'The down train on tbe Kansas City, St. Joe and Council Bluffs.'

You are at tbe wrong depot besides that, the down train etarsad folly balf an hour ago.' •You don't tell me so?' queried tbe young man, looking as though he felt very bad over it.

It's a fact.' Well, it oan't be helped,' said the merchant, 'so we bad better

MAKS THH BB8T OF IT.'

Come into the next room,' said his partner, 'we may see some iun. But you'd better take a little something tske a drink, between yoa and me, you know that'll be all right. 8ay, barkeeper, bring ia two oooktails.'

The merchant refused first, but afterwards he drank, drank again, felt good, and waa in for a good time, no matter what it ooat.

The young man commenced to tell something be had just beard about Canada Bill—some tale that waa setting tbe country wild, when—

Look here,' said a young, neatly dressed fellow, who was sitting when they entered, with bis head resting on a table, 'I have beard nott-ingbut 'Cana da Bill,' 'Canada Bill,' since I oame to Omaha. I'm commercial traveler, and I'd like lu see him.'

Weil, blast me if I want to see him agin. Tbe last time I saw blm it ooat me utgb a thousand dollars—give me a rest on Canada IMI, if you please.*

Tbia all came from a shabby-looking individual, who was playing a game of

UUIVIUH««T "W I««WWL seven-op, for the drink*, with another shabby-looking Individual.

No, air Pveaeen enough of Canada Bill.' Onr merchant Mend thooght It very queer that men were found foolish enough to bet on any such game, or to gamble at all.

Yes, that's all tight,' said ouryoung friend, 'but if yon saw him deaf tboee cards of hie you'd bet in epiteof yourself.'

Correct, partner,' eaid the seven-up man. 'Yon bet your bottom dollsr on that. That's Jeat why this chicken dont want to eee him. Now I'll ahow yon how it's done.'

He moved his chair over to the table where oar friends were enjoying their cocktails. He boasted that he ooold beat Canada Mil. If he wasn't afraid of him. He shuffled the three cards around. Onr young friend bet and tost several tlmea. Our merchant friend aaw how it was car young friend ioet. He wouldn't play cards, however no, be wouldn't. He wen determined on that. He woold try It ooee, just to ahow those men how sharp he was, and If he won he wonkl glvs the mon«gr to ftoMs rooat rnsezr. He hat flee dollars and won. Be owns nt» smiling, bet ton this time, and won. He bet five next time, and Hat, Was snreef It next Uma, and hot twenty and tort. Wasn't quite ao ante of it next time bet five dollars and lost.

Bot whyjcoon? When be g4$ b|jj& to St. Joseph be did not {iave ten dollars oat or nearly thirteen thousand. Be saw throngh it ail. Toeyonng man whom be had known in St. Joe, as a wild young fellow, who gambled occasionally, turned out to be a 'capper' for Canada Bill. Tbe bar-keeper was in tbe game also. Tbe commercial traveler was another cappen and the man who didn't want to see Canada Bill—was laboring under that very cognomen himself. He, tbe merchant, tried to keep (he thing quiet but it leaked out. He lost some of 'the respect which previous to that time was his came very nearly being expelled from tbe cbareh, but he confessed bis sin said he was sorry for it, and he, we understand, is no worse off now for the little experience he gained by his visit to Omaha.

THE KIND OF A HAN HE IS. We have said tbat to tell the stories we have heard about Canada Bill would fill a large volume, so we can't go on with any more of them but the traits in his character are folly as interesting as the anecdote? aj-e. He has probably duped a thousand countrymen in his time, hundreds of merchants, lawyers and professional men generally, but his great fort was ministers of the gospel and Chicago drummers. He despises Chicago drummers, and explains his hatred of them by saying that he never failed to beat one of them when he tried, and he never beat one yet but he (the drummer) squealed. He makes a boast that he can manage clergymen better than any other class, and this fact will be better demonstrated by the following petition sent by him to a member of the City Council of Omaha, and presented by the latter to that honorable body.

OMAHA, January 29,1872.

To the Mayor and Honorable City Council of the city of Omaha: A petition.

I, William Jones (Canada Bill,) re-

speetfully ask of your honorable body the consideration of tbe following preposition

As you have determined to drive me out of this city, on tbe ground that I am wrongfully taking from poor people their hard-earned mouey, and that I jet this money dishonestly. I will pay nto tbe treasury ol tbe city of Omaha, ten thousand dollars ($10,000,) five of it to remain there, the other five to be a bond

bindiHg

me, to be forfeited

if

I pray your honorable body to grant my prayer. WILLIAM JONES, (Signed) (Canada Bill.)

The above was probably gotten up by some shyster and dictated by Bill. It shows how he stands on tbe preach er and Chicago drummer subject, however.

It is told of him that be is one of the most liberal-hearted men in the country. He ia ever ready to help a friend, and he ys himself that he has loaned a hundre/i thousand dollars to 'burst ed'gatnli rs since he came west. He will do anything for fun no matter what it sts, ne is bound to have it, and sometimes gets himself into trouble "ii accouut of this humorous proellvity of his.

Two deteetives were sent from Kansas City to arrest bim, not long ago, and ht* knew it. They were playing the sly dodge, but be beat tbem. Before the detectives ooold arrest him be bad all their money and a gold watch belonging to one of them. They dare not 'squeal.' so Bill got away. He went to Kansas Citv a abort time afterwards and was arrested, but he is out again.

WHO IS HBT

So secret has he kept bis history that ed from you in spirit, she will hardly but ftitw, even of bis chums, know where he came from. Bis name is William Jones—he persists in saying that it bis name. He was born in De vonshire, England. He came to this country some fifteen years ago, and slaoe then be has lived everywhere, and yet nowhere. When be first came ver, he lived a few months in Canada, and has by some means bad the name Can ada prefixed to his same ever since. He claims that he waa the most sue cess fa I gambler that ever lived in Canada, and that after iiving there only three months he was compelled to leave. He plied his vooation oa the Hudson River, Erie, and other rail-

tbat, ling cards, be has msde his name notorious throughout the length and breadth of the land.

A NEW LINCOLN ANECDOTE. Col. Lewis D. Campbell, under the skillful playing of a reporter's fingers, recently gave lOrth the following anecdote. He called upon President Lincoln during the war, and was kindly received with the question, "What can I do for you, Lew?'' Informing him of my wish to go with McLean to Fort Lafayette, I said I desired him to give me permit to do so. "Is that all?—mo*.t certainly will I and picking up a blank card, he wrote on it in pencil "Allow Col. Lew D. Campbell to enter Fort Lafayette. A LINCOLN."

I

fall to comply with this contract, on condition th*t~you allow BIH to remain iw and around Omaha and I will interfere no other persons than preachers and Chicago drummers. Iam willing to add to the above sum two thousand more per annum for this privilege, tbe latter sum to be given to the poor.

I read it, and thanking him, said. "All right, Mr. President, so far as it goes but I would inucb prefer to have you add one thing more." Taking the card agaiu and readiug it aloud, be inquired, "What more do you tbink necessary Please add the words, 'Abo to come out!" Catching tbe idea, he stretched out bis long legs, and, leaning back in bis chair, he again laughed loud enough to be heard all over the mansion. After adding the words which be said were very important in thoso days, he inquired, "Lew, why did you not remain in the army?—yon ought to be there." I replied. "My health failed, and I con id not have lived until now in the service, but whv do you think I should have remained?'' "Because," said he, "you seem to have the natural elements for successful military service. Whilst you are disposed to push forward you have at the same time the prudence to guard the rear and provide fbr a safe retreat if necessary."

Another one runs thus: While trav eling on the Hudson River Railroad Wag advised them to purchase but one ticket, as tbat would be sufficient to satisfy the demands of the road. Tbe conductor presently came along, when Chang presented bis ticket, which was dulv punched, taken up, and a cheek given in lieu thereof. Eng was then touched on tbe shoulder and his ticket demanded, but he significantly shook his head, saying bis brother had given for both. "That will only answer for himself," said the guardian of the pecuniary interests of the railroad com

"Don't dare to put me off," said Chang, with imperturbable gravity. "I have given my ticket and if you'll put me off I'll prosecute yoa."

Tbe good-natured conductor saw tbe dilemma in which be was placed, and joining in the general laughter of the passengers, chalked the hat of Eng and allowed bim to pass unmolested.
