THE SINGED CAT.

[Continued from Sixth Page.} *4 "It don't matter what's the row asked Hiram, placing the knife in hi* coat pocket. "He was cheating at cards," said Silas, pointing at Ikos. ""You lie, you thief, you lie."

At this rejoinder of Ikes, both young men dashed forward, but were prevent* ed from in contact by Hiram, who flung them against opposite sides of the room as if they were children. "What game?" he calmly inquired, as soon as the curses which this last display of physical powei evoked had. subsided somewhat. "Poker," muttered Silas. "Poker!' iueeed "Hiram. Iiow much did they steal?" "About forty dollars." "Whar's the keerds?" asked the old man of Marks. "I gits 'em pooty kvlck, Mister Inch. Mine Got, look at der damages," and Marks gazed ruefully upon the battle field.

It was indeed a scene of wreck and ruin. The table was lying on the floor, cracked through the center, and minus two legs the chairs were scattered around the room, some of them broken and others piled together, in apparently inextricable confusion. A large mirror banging on oneot the walls was shiver* ed, and th« troken glass glittered on the carpet amidst the fragments of a shattered lamp and hundreds of playing cards that bad been discarded iu* the c?urda of uj mm played there that day. No wonder the parsimonious Jew looked upon the scene with a woc-be-gone expression. "Who bays me der damages?" he wailed. "Ob, shut ub, Marksy, and get the cards," commanded one of the crowd of young men who had been one ot the previous game, and who bad remained daring the fracas an interesting spectator. "Yes, get the cards," «aid another "Ikes, an' Inch *11 make up before morning."

Both young men, after glaring at each other a moment, sat down on chairs at opposite sides ol the table, which Marks hail raised and hastily repaired preparatory to the game about to begin. The others assisted him iu clearing away the debris, and in a few moments Ikes was dealing the cards to three players, two of whom were his friends, ana the other Hiram Inch,

It was "fifty cents ante," and from the start Inch played in remarkable success, winning every large bet that be ventured, and "bluffing" with so much coolness and circumspection that the others could not overreach him. Iu three hours Hiram had not only recovered the forty dollars which his sou bad lost, but was twenty dollars ahead.

Suddenly, and without any apparent cause, Inch rose to his feet, and with bis left hand lifted the light table above the head* of the players, at the sam« time pointing with bis right haod index finger at a pile of cards I3 ing on the laps of Ikes and his right hand companion '^Tbief!" bo growled, as he replaced the table and turned to leave the room For a moment Ikes sat like a statue The whole actiow had been as rapid as strong muscles and supple sinews could make it, and the shock ot discovery for a moment overcame the cheaters, was not until Hiram had reached the door that Ikes spoke. He tried to be calm, but his voice trembled, and it was plain that he only lauked courage make an assault upon thfe tall giant who had twice during the evening bandied him so roughly. "I'll make you suffer fur your treat ment of me to night, lioth of you you needn't laugh, I'll settle your hash the naxt time I see you, d—n you. I'm an Injin when I'm riled, and l'll make both of you pay for what you have done here to-night."

With these words he threw his chair back and followed his enemies out of the door. "Go home," said Hiram to his son, as soon as they reached the street.

The young man obeyed, and when Inch saw that the boy was not followed he mounted and rode after him, dlsap pearing in the darkness, accompanied by the curbing and oaths of the discom flted Ike«. This story will be continued next week. It will run through three more unuibers of this paper.

"SWEET WILLIAM:

AN KPIB30K OF FKATIIEIt RIVER,

FRANK

§W

VIES.

His general appearance was that of one who was sad. yet sociable heart broken, and yet facing the stern realities of life with a sad smile and an effort at cheerfulness.

Ills name was not known, as no one took the trouble to A*k but some genius dubbed him 8weet William, and by that name be was always after known.*

He appeared at Mexican Bar, on the Feather River, in 1852. He was then about twenty-five years of age, and a more unprepossessing specimen of hu inanity could not be found in the whole diggings. He soon located a claim, built a cabin, and commenced work. He seemed to be in some measure sue oesslul and be could not well avoid it, as be worked steadily, aud gold in those days was plenty *11 along tne river.

His steady habits in that land of barbarians soon attracted my attention, and I went around to bis cabin one night for the purpose of extending to biin the sociabilities of the bar.

I found bis Cabin rudely furnished, as all mining shanties were then and will be until the end of time, bat its general appearance of neatness and cleanliness struck me as being a decided departure from the general order of things on the riuer.

I remarked this, bat be only smiled a sad, sickly smile that bad something effeminate in it. I at once set him down as being "soft"—decidedly so—but still there was something attractive about him, and I determiued to cultivate bis acquaintance.

He was small, snd apparently weak He was only about five feet four inches high, and would not have weighed over one hundred and twenty pounds—probably not so much, but not a pound more at beet. His bands were small and well shsped, but tanned and blistered from hard work in tbe broiling sun of California. His feet were encased In a pair of heavy boots, which were evidently several numbers too large for him while his coarse woolen pants and shirt fitted bim equally as bad. His eyes wem Mirge^ grey and melting, with a qhick, "half startled look about tbftffl that impressed me with tbe idea that there waa a deficiency of brain above

th«m, or that the possessor was oontin ually uuder the fear ot something he scarcely knew what.

Another thing auout him struck me a* being decidedly novel he could blush.

As soon as I made thla dlseovery 1 hastened down to Dutch Pete's saloon lor the purpose of communicating the startling fact to the small but choice band of spirits who congregated there nightly for the purpose of enjoying a felicitous game of draw poker and to sample the vile liquors dispensed to thirsty souls by the dignified bartender —Hoogly— a man not lair to look upon, but who was famous for bis precision with the playful pistol, and whose friendship was iu every way desirable. "Gentlemen, he blushes like a girl, said I.

"Who?" demauded the pugilistic bartender. "Why, tho rabbit eyed party up the bar."

"What! the smooth faced galoot who dou't drink nor play poker?" "The same." "Gentlemen," explained Clipper Jim, a Baltimore rough, "he's a great 'find.'"

Having aired his opinion thus, he ordered "plzen" for the house. "Gentlemen and fellow pilgrims," re marked Major Sylvestor Hobbs, impressively, as he drained his glass, "that party is just a little 'off.'" As the Major delivered this, he tapped his forehead significantly. The Major evidently intended to oouvey the idea that the mm was weak minded. "Tbe suggestion is well-timed," re marked Judge Downing. "The Major is right—the party is 'off aud it is the duty of every galoot on the bar to keep an eye on him, for he may break out iu a new place sometime, and do his person violent injury. In other words, gen tlemen, I hope it* is not putting the mat ter too strong to say that be is liable, in a freak of abberration, to assault his own person—his own person, I say—with deadly intent."

Tbe Judge is perfectly and absolute iy right," remarked the Major, decisive ly "the galoot will tied himself some morning deader than a State bank-bill in Mexican bar."

Tbe Judge and the Major now drank again, and adjourned for a little private

fame,

leaving tbe matter to be discussed the lesser lights but a tight between Canada Bill and Long Tom ended the matter and turned tbe conversation into other channels and I soon retired lor the night.

Days came and went and Sweet Wil liam pursued the even tenor of his way regardless of tbe remarks his strange conduct exc: led.

After be had been on the bar a couple of months, another stranger appeared. This latter person was a very different character from Sweet William.

He was a tall, dashing man with keen villainous, but handsome eyes a regu lar practitioner at the bar (Dutch Pete's and a remarkably lucky gambler, as quite a number of us soon discovered to our cost. He had an offhand way of betting his ounces that was decidedly refreshing: and he soon acquired an en viable reputation as a sporting man.

One nigbt I entered tbe "Wing andWing," our leading gambling ball, and muob to my surprise, I saw Sweet William aud the black eyed stranger vested at a table together playing p-)ker. I lelt like remonstrating wilb the latter, as it !*ked like sheer robbery for him to win tbe hard earnings of the gentle Sweet William, and I remarked the same to a friend, but the latter surprised me with the rejoinder: "No need to interfere, for Sweet Wil liam is skinning tbe black eyed pilgrim scandalously." "What! Sweet William beating kimf "You chance your ducats on that, pard. Jest look at bim."

I did look, and in all my experience I do not think I ever saw so skillful 1 poker player as that same Sweet Wil liam. He bet recklessly, but almost invariably won, much to the stranger's surprise and disgust.

The scene attracted quite a crowd and as our meek eyed friend drew ounce after

ouuc9

of the yellow dust to his

side of the table, low murmurs

applanse ran over the room. The cards were again shuffled, dealt, and the betting began, "I see your ten ounces, and make it twenty," ca'.mly said Sweet William. "I call you, pard," said the stranger, "and if you hold over me I am gone, for I am down to hard-pan as sure as you live." "Very well what have you said tbe smooth faced miner. "Four kings," was the reply. "Good, but not good enough," said Sweet William. "What?" gasp«d tbe stranger, for once losing control of his handsome features. "Four aces and— a queen!" said the winner, and he spread out on the table four aces, and—an old photograpL! It represented the features of a very beautiful girl and as the gambler's •yes fell upon it, his face turned pale as death, and great beads of cold sweat stood on his forehead. "Do you know her?" hissed Swoet William. "Yes but who are you?" "Her titter!"

The hall WHS as silent us the grave but in a moment the oppressivestlllness was broken by the silvery tones of 8weet William. "I am tbe young lady's sister you ruined us both she died, but I have lived for revenge I have followed you through every State and Territory west of the Mississippi but now both of our piles are on the board, and the best hand wins."

The stranger sat in a kind of dsxed way through it all, his hands dropped helplessly by his side, and tbe most abject fear was written on every feature.

Sweet William looked like a devil to me now. Gone were the old sad smile and the half frightened look in the eyes —the one now was cunning, devilish and cruel tbe other was steely and glaring. "Have you anything to add to lay little speech, Mr. Jerome Tilford?" queried Sweet William.

Tbe stranger made no audible reply, but shook his bead, and rubbed bis hand serosa his brow, as if to collect bis scattered thoughts.

In an Instant Sweet William leveled a pistol at tbe stranger's breast and palled tbe trigger.

He gave a low, gurgling cry, and fell dead. Sweet William, stnillog like a very Hand, gave one glanoe at the corpse and left the ball, and was nevermore Men or beard of by the denlzansof Mexican Bar.

THAT CHECKER BOARD.

Detroit Free Press,

TTp to three evenings ago such a thing as a checker board was never ktiown in Mr. Grattan'a house. He and bia aged partner have mauageil to pa*a tbe long evenings very pleasantly, aud he supposed they were happy enough until a friend from the east paid them a flying visit and asserted over and over again that tbe game of checkers waa not only all the rage there, but that it served to quicken the perceptive faculties, enlarge the mind aud render the brain more active. After giving the subject due thought, Mr. Grattan walked down town aud purchased a checker board, and when evening came he surprised bis good wife by bringing it in from the woodshed and saying: "Well, Martha, we'll have a game or two beforeswe go over to the social, expeet to beat you ail to Hinders, but you won't care." "Of course not, and If I beat you why you won't care," she replied.

They sat down, and he claimed the first move. She at once objected, but when be began to grow red in the face she yielded, and lie led off. At the fourth move she took a man, cbuokling as she raked him in. "I don't see anything to grin at," he sneered, as be moved a man backwards "Here! you cau't move that way!" she called out. "I cau't, eh Perhaps I never played checkers before you were born

She saw a chance to jump two more men, and gave in the point, but as she moved he cried out:

Put them right hack there! I've concluded not to move backwards, even if Hoyle does permit it 1"

She gave in again, but wheu he jump ed a mau her nose grew red, aud Bhe cried out: "I didn't mean to move there, I was thinking of the social 1" "Can't help the social, Martha—we must go by Hoyle."

In about two minutes she jumped two men and went into tbe king-row, shout ing: "Crown him crown him I've got a king!" "Oue would think by your childish action that you never played a game before 1" he growled out.| "I know enough to beat you 1'' "You do, eh Some folks are awful smart." "And some folks ain't!" she snapped, as her king captured another man. •'What in thuuder are you jumping that way for?" "A king can jump any way "No be can't!" "Yes be can!" "Don't talk back to 'me, Martha Grattan I was playing checkers when you were in your cradle!" "I don't carel I can jump two men which ever way you move

He looked down on tbe board, saw that such was the case, and roared out: "You've moved twice to my once!" "I haven't!" "I'll take my oath you have I ean't play against any such black leg practice

Who's a black leg? You not only cheated, but you tried to lie out of it!" Board and checkers fell between them. He could get on bis hat quicker than she could fink her bonnet, aud that was the only reason why he got out of the house first. A Woodward avenue grocer found him sitting on a basket of cranberries at the door as he was closing up for the night, and asked him if he was waiting for his wife to come along. "Well, not exactly I stopped here to feel in my pocket for tbe key of the barn. I shall sleep on the hay to-night and see if it won't cure this cold in my head!"

A POZZ LED UTCHMAN.

How dn Election Was Won.

The Madison (Ind.) Star says: Some years ago Russ, our own G. W., lived in our adjoining county of Kipley. He was then a Republican iu a Dimocratic county. What his politics are now we don't kuow, and don't care, and we thiuk he don't know or care either. We only know he is a manly, big hearted, genial gentleman, and that's all we care about these times. But to the story. Russ was a Republican candidate for Sheriff tbe Democratic county of Ripley and as a matter of course, wanted ail the votes ho could get. Then, as now, he was passionately fond of gunning, and always owned a finr gun and dogs. In his count.v was an o.u Gorman we will call him Jake. He also, a hunter, and a power "the boys." He kept a little country doggery and his "influence" was worth auout thirty votes. Iu due time Russ nw»t Jake, and talk about bunting, uuns, and dags rather warmed the Dutchman toward Russ, although Jake was a Democrat. Alter a while RUSH saw one of Jake'm l»uk, pot bellied pointers, and commenced to give away taffy. "Jake," said Russ, "that's mighty line do». Where did you get him?''

Jake replied to the effect tout he raised that kind of dogs. "Well, I'll tell you," said Russ, "I am very fond of hunting, and if 1 am elected Sheriff this fail, I ahall indulge myself shooting to my heart's content. If I am not elected twill not be able lo shoot much. I will give you $50 for that dog, Jake, if I want him after the election. Here's a $5 no'e to bind tbe bargain."

Jake, tickled to death at tbe fine sale of bia dog, which was worth about fifty cents, took tbe bill, and as a consequence bis end of the county gave Russ a bandsome majority and he was elected, barely pulling through. Time passed and Russ was duly installed in tbe office of Sheriffof Ripley county. Soon Jake pat lu an appearance, dragging the unwilling cur at bis heels. "Mister Russ," said Jake, "you vos now elected Sheriff von dls gounty und here is dese dog. Gif me my vorty-five to liars." "Jake." mid Rune, "I find that my time will not allow me to bunt so much as I thought it would yott may just keep tbe dog and the $5 too."

Jake studied a long time, then took a long breath, and said: "Mister Russ, I pelieve Id, by Got. you buy me and not my dog! Ain'd id?

tHK PHYSICAL PARADOX. It has been said that "the blood is the source of life." It ts as truly tbe source of disease and death. No life, that is to say, no bealtby tissne can be generated from Impure blood, no organ of tbe body can normally perform its functions when supplied with impure blood. The fluid that sbouid carry lire and health to every part, carries only weakness and disease. Blood is tbe source of life, only when It is pure. If -it has become diseased, it must be eleansed by proper rucdicatlon, else every pulsation of tbe human heart sends a wave of disease through tbe system.

HOW TO FIND THE PLACE. Enquire for the Turkish Bath 11? north Sixth street, or take the street cars, which pass by the establishment every few minutes. After applying lor tieatment and securing a ticket you proceed to the bath rooms and tap on the door, wnich brings an attendant who admits you and shows you a dressing room. Here you disrobe, don a Turkish attire, and signify your readiness for the bath. You follow to the hot rooms, wbere you reellne on a lounge in a temperature varying from 110 to 156, as may be desired, which produces relaxation and softening of the muscular system, and loosening of the scarf skin, while copious perspl ration oozes from every pore, washing out the debris, clearer and clearer, until the pearly drops have freed the skin of its impurities. Thus macerated and disinfected by heat, you wonder what will come n« xt. You are now taken from the fiery furnace to the shampoo room, and laid down on a warm marble slab. Here you must give up and submit to a trcmeadouu rubbing tnd pumme lin^ from head to foot, soaped, and rubbed with sea weed and brushes, sprayed off with warm water, and take the snower, or plunge, which is warmed to suit the sensation of each bather, and fiuishing off with as cool water as can be endured, in order to bring on that tonic reaction and ru.idy glow so much desired by every Turkish bather* You are next rubbed dry with Turkish towels, and a warm sheet thrown around you, and directed to ihe cooling reom, where another attendant rubs your head dry, your feet, and sprays with perfumery and attends to your varied wants, and you are at liberty to read, sleep, or smoke, and ponder over what you have just passed through, wondering if it is your t-ame self again, and how much has been washed out and rubbed off in those rooms yonder. All the way through the exercises at times, are interspersed with sensations of exquisite delight. Try them at home, and you will sigh for neither the Hot Springs, Saratoga or Denver.
