Stories of Card-Playing. From the London Globe. Many strange stories are told of cardplaying. Hone, in hia "Every-day Book," gives an account of a child being played For at cards at Durham in 17:35. The parents wagered *it against the modest stake of four shillings, and it was won by the opposite side. A. quaint little book, published in 1790 and entitled "The Amusements of Clergymen," has a goed deal to say about cards. The tiUe ot this work is somewhat misleading, as it alludes to most "amusements" only to prove them unlawful, at least for the ideal pastor. Not only are cards, hunting and theatregoing prohibited, but the generally considere innocent recreations of fishing, chess and music are equally interdicted. In fact, the "amusements befitting a pious clergyman" resolve themselves into gardening for an outdoor, and shuitle-cock for an indoor, amusement the worthy author strongly commending this childish game as one that "gives us good exercise, makes us cheerful, does not empty our

and require# little skill to learn. the man who invented shuttle

cock." As might be expected, this writer is very severe on cards. He denies their utility, even as a means of amusement for the sick or aged, enforcing this opinion by the anecdote of an old lady, who, having "lost the use of her speech and both ofiicr hands by a paralytic affection," was advised by her doctors to play whist for her amusement. A friend sorted and held the cards before her and the patient nodded at the one she wished played but it unfortunately happened that these signals were occasionally misunderstood, which threw the old lady into such fits of fury that she derived injury ratln-r than good from tuisprescription." Dean ltamsey, in his "Reminiscences," tells a ghastly story of another old lady whose pas/ion for cards was such that she

played

them even on her death-bed: and

expiring before the conclusion of the game her partner took her cards, and the player finished the rubber before calling for assistance.

The love of cards still exists in Russia. An old number of All The Year Ih'und gives an amusing anecdote of a priest who was so devoted to this amusement that he played up to the last moment before commencing the church service. Unluckily the cards fell out on the tloor. to the extreme scandal of the congregation. The witty priest, however •was

fully

equal to the occasion. At the

conclusion of the service lie beckoned up one of the choristers and asked him the name of several cards, which the boy "knew correctly. He then suddenly asked the lad the name of the next saint's day, which the child could not tell. "See," cried the priest, turning to the congregation, "you teach your children the names of every card in the pack and leave them ignorant of their religion. Lei this be the last time I am compelled to bring playing-cards into the church to shame

you."

Wanted a Change. Wall street Daily News.

ANew York firm dealing in pictures mottoes etc., was visited last fall by a email dealer from a village over in New Jersey, and the man was greatly struck with the motto: "God bless our home." "Now, that's something original and unique'," said, as ho held one at arm's length. "Down in our town we just hanker after original designs and unique literaluiv,and I believe I can sell a hundred of these. You may make my order an even hundred." lie went away well pleased, and his goods were dulv shipped, and nothing further was heard of him until the other day. Then he entered the store to make some /HAY puivhases, and he was asked to look »t a new style of mottoes just out. "I hain't no more interest in mottoes," he sighi d, as he glunced at"Whatishomc without a mother?' "You remember I bought a hundred of you last, fall "Ye* and ho«v did they sell?"

"Dill yu don't lay it to the mottoes, do you "Well, I dunno. I've lived in Jersey twenty-even yours, and been in this business over twenty, and 1 think a dollar chromo, showing pretty fair hill, a glorious sunset, and a decent sore of a pond with a duel? in it, hits our case a little better than anything else.

It had not yet ceased when a man vith a funeral countenance pushed his way into the crowd, and asked: "Who is he what,s his name "It's Jones," answered a voice. **What Jones?" "Thomas Jones." "Sure?" 'Yes, I've known him for over 30 years." "Then I'll laugh," said the solemn faced man and he leaned against the wall and chuckled and laughed until he conld hardly get his breath. One of remarked on this Singular conduct, and the laugher wiped jihe tears from his eyes, and replied: "Gentlemen, nothing tickles mfe all over so mnch as to see a man fall down. Ten

ago I was salesman in a wholesale ouse, with a fine chance for promotion One day a man jnst ahead of me fall down, and I laughed. It was our old man. and he discharged me on the spot.

Five years later I was engaged to a rich girl. As I came out of the post-office one day a man sprawled on the walk, and I laughed till I was sore. It was my Angelina's old an, and he broke up the match. Again I laughed myself out of a position in a bank, and but for the same failure, I shoulu to-day have a place in the custom-house.

The Life of a Hunter Saved by His Dog From the Helena Independent.

Herman Hutter and Charles Whitman ofMissoulia, armed with rifles and accompanied by a deerhound, the ottier day went up the Rattlesnake rivtir in quest of game. They climbed the mountains to the lefi of the stream and separated, taking opposite sides of of the ridge, in the hopes of bagging a deer. Whitman came down the Rattlesnake side, and soon after separating from his companion he slipped and fell sliding some 200 feet down the mountain side. He vainly endeavored to stop himself by digging into the snow with his hands and feet, and clutching at brush and saplings, till just as he was about to be precipitated over the cliff into the Rattlesnake, some forty feet below, he clasped a strong sapling with one hand and was left dangling in the air over the precipice. By strong effort he clasped the sapling with his arm in the elbow' and grasping liis wrist with the disengaged hand awaited his inevitable fall "With desperation. The hound, seeing hisjn aster fall, followed him to the edge of iie cliff and whined piteously at the predicament of his master Suddenly he dashed off up the hill and disappeared. WTien nearly exhausted Whitman heard his companion, Hutter above him coming to his assistance. He ga'hered(renewed courage and held on desperately till Hut ter rescued him. Hutter says the dog came upon him and seized hold of his clothing, whining. He turned upon him tho dog ran off. Repeating the strange manaeuvre Hutter suspected something wrong and followed the dog to Whitman^ rescue.

A Ferocious Wildcat. Cherry Creek (Nev.) News.

Frank M. Chapman had quite an "interview" with a ferocious wildcat near Schellburne last week. He was out looking up stock, and seeing the cat at a distance, and being curious to know what it was, rode up to it, when the animal suddenly-epr&ng upon him in the saddle. The horse becamtjfrightened and threw both rider and assailant Young Chapman had no weapon other than a loaded whip, and this he used with such force as to kill the infuriated beast. A heavy coat which the young man wore at the time prevented him from being badly scratched by the wildcat. His rare pluck and courage no doubt saved him from a horrible late. The cat was a very large one, and meant business. His skin will be preserved as atrophy in the Chapman family.

The Hero and the Dog

A dozen men were watering their throats in a Monroe Avenue saloon yesterday, when two strangers entered, and one of them raised his voice and called out: "G entlemen allow me to introduce you to Capt. Green, of Chicago, the hero who was locked up in a room with a dog for two long hours, armed only with apiece of lath

The other rules are to the effect that speeches on motion for adjournment of debate shall be strictly confined to the subject of adjournment that the Speaker may decline to put motions for adjournment if lie considers they are proposed for the purpose of obstruction that no member can move or support a motion for adjournment more than once in one debate the Speaker may direct a member to discontinue his speech, if irrelevant or consisting of tedious repetitions that no division shall be taken 011 motions that "the Speaker do leave the Chair, and that the House do now proceed to con sider the bill," and that the Speaker may order a division by rising and sitting, so as to avoid the delay of the present system.

Immediately a terriflic explosion occurred, in which a hole was blown through fifteen feet of earth composing the roof, carrying death aud dcstuction all around. About twenty men were a work at the mine, six of whom were killed outright, and a number dangerously wounded. A mule and a train of eight cars were shot out of the main entrance, as if from a cannon another mule drawing a car on which a man was seated was blown on top of the car, killing the driver. A dog was also blown out of the mine. One man, Jackson Leek, just entering, was blown back over a hieh railroad embankaient into the creek below and badly hurt. The men, not disabled or killed escaped through a shaft to the open air. The killed are J. Logan and son. James Mehan, William Ilaley George Henshelwood and Ed. Smith. The man who caused the explosion was badly multilated, and his body burned to a crisp. The wounded arc Jas. Crouch, Robt. Haley Ed Creighan, John Aiken, Peter Wilson and two brothers. Jfearly all are badly hurt, and some will die. Mrs. Griffith had gone to the door of the mine to cal1 her son, when the explosion occured. She saw the mule shot out of the mine and saw her son injured. The scenes were heartrending in the extreme. Physicians were summoned, and ordered assistance to the wounded.

Was the Vice-President Elect Born in America?

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WASHINGTON, Feb. 10 —It has been repeatedly slated tince the presidential election that Vice-president-elect Arthur is not a native of the United States. There have been quite a number of circumstantial publications pretending to show that he was born in Canada. If he was he cannot, of course, take the office to which he was elected. The attention of the Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections ha3 been called to the doubts as to Mr. Arthur's nativity that have arisen. The committee has also been furnished additional evidence on the subject outside of the publications made. Several members of the committee believe that General Arthur is not an American by birth. It is the intention of the committee to investigate the subject thoroughly. This will be done in order that steps can be taken to prevent General Arthur from assuming the office of Vice-president, in case it shall be found he is not a native. *„t
