It was a pleasant full night in Savan

tlemen mot by arrangement iu oue of
the private parlors of Screvau lioue to
liavo tt littlo "draw," which, by the
uforesuitl agreement, was to bo no child's
pluy, but a giimo for all that was iu it.
ihreo of the gentlemen were largo cot
ton merchants; ono was un extensive
manufacturer of fertilizers, and the third
was a genial hotel proprietory, who was
blessed with a superabundance of
wealth. Tho whole tlvo were ''solid
men," whose bank checks were good for
any amouut, and often during the gume
these checks wore piled up when all the
ready money ami ivories were stuked on
a hand.
Ono of tho players, gonerully a hard
man to beat on account of his
perfect coolness und unbounded
pluck, seemed to bo unsually
unlucky upon this occasion, and before

when it camo his turn to put up, he
laughingly remarked, "Gentlemen, this
giiniH is going a little slow. 1 will make
it $1000 to play." Three of the others
saw it, and when his turn came the
major raised the blind $1000. This was
ulo "seen" by the others, aud on the
draw for cards, ho drew ono card for a
flush and made a pair of deuces; the
second man drew three curds, the third
tine curd, and tho fourth, two cards.
Each of the others bet a "chip," and the
major bet $MM. The second and third
men dropped, but the fourth, remarking,
"Major, you can't blulf me," raised him

The produotiuu of eggs is a thing de
sired by every ponltryniuii, and is one of
the inos't protltablo brunches of the poul
try business. Ordiuarily every hen will
lay a ccriuiu amount of eggs in tho year,
but with proper food and can they will
lay more than if neglected and forced to
search for their own living. The pro
duction of eggs is a great drain ou the
lien. During laying time from one and
u half to two ounces of highly eoncen
tratediuud is secreted through the tis
sues every day or every other day. Pour
iiiiiiees of solid food is tho average
amount consumed daily, which shows al
most an ei'iiiil amount needed for egg

mind this is well known, uud few par

for their feathered Hocks, and desirous
uf gaiuiug some things by their keeping,
hut do feed mid euro for them well, ob
tain the best rt suits.
A desirable food for laying hen must
consist ofi'rainiti variety, wheat, trass

"Matters with ns have reached a cri
sis," said Superintendent Jackson, of
Castle Garden, yestordsy. "We have
no monoy and no immediate prospects
of getting any, and I ee nothing for It
but to shut up shop. The Commission
ers of Emigration have had no funds
since the 1st of May. Since then Com
missioner Forest has paid the snlanee of
tho employes, trusting to the future to
be reimbursed. Thfre are over one hun
dred persona on the pay rolls of Castle
Garden and. the Ward's Island institu
tion. We are also in debt abont 820,000
for auppliei, and on the 1st of July there
will be 5,0O0 interest due on the loan
on the Ward's Island hospitals. We had
every reason to suppose that the steam
ship companies, which are very great y
benefitted by these institutions, would
be willing to contribute the very mode
rate Lead tax of fifty cents to maintain
our work. They gave us to understano
that they would do so at our meeting
with their "representatives on Monday,
and the sudden announcement of their
refusal was a complete surprise."
"Do you not expect to receive the
8200,OOOappropriatedforthe use of the
Comtnissiou by tho Legislature?" was
8"No,'"said Mr. Jackson. "The appropri
ation bill will not become a law until the
Governor signs it. aud that I am afruid
he will not do. The Governor informed
tho Commiwsioners, in conversation, that
it was the sentiment of the Legislature
and his own that tho ship . companies
should contribute to the support of the
Emigration board, and that he intend
ed to withhold his signature to the bill
until the steamship companies promise
to pay the very moderate fifty cents head
money for the maintenance of institu
tions' which are of inestimable value to
tho companies in caring for their passen
gers. But eveu if tho Governor does
sigu the bill I think the Board will de
cide to close the lauding depot at Castlo
Garden. We will neod $200,000 in mak
ing mauy necessary repairs, paying our
debts and maitituiug tho present inmates
of the hospitals."
"What is the remedy for the present
stuto of affairs."
"I cun see ouly ono. Let Congress
pass at once tho two bills before it. This
is the only way to forco the steamship
lines todo'their duty. The business of
currying immigrants is enormously
profitable far more so than anybody
outside the stoamship offices know and
these companies should bo compelled
to contribute this mere pittance for the
expeuses of protecting their passengers
from thioves, and caring for them when
sick or destitute.
"Will tho closingof the Castle-Gardon
result iu a repetition of the old scenes of
outrage und robbery upon the poor im
migrants?" "Thorn is every reason to believe that
such will be the case. You can easily
see that even if the steamship com punios
are so disposed -and they cun do just us
they choose iu the matter they cannot
protect thoir passengors from the sharp
ers aud worse who will infest the piers
of tho eompauiosand lay in wuitf jr their
prey. With all the machinery of oar
police force even, we are not always suc
cessful in protecting the enormous
crowds that aro coming here now." N.

Didn't Want to be Good.
A brisk fight botweon two boys ut the
foot of Griawold street ono day recently
was interrupted by a citizen who,
after releasing ono of them, made the
other sit dow u on a salt barrel and bo
talked to.
"Now, thou," ho began, "it is a terri
ble thing for a boy like you to be con
ducting iu this manner."
"I'd a licked him if yon hadn't come
tip!" wailed the. boy us ho carefully
wiped his scratched nose.
"Suppose you had. Do you want to
bo considered a dog? Why don't you
try and bo a good boy, and get along
peacefully with everybody? Suppose
you had rolled oil" the wharf and boon
drowned?"
"Sposo'n I hadn't, too! It's tho good
boys who get drowned!"
"What!"
"It's so, aud I kill prove it ! I'll bet a
dollar again a ceut that more Sunday
School boys have beou drowned this
year than bud 'tins!"
The man reflected aud did no dispute
the assertion.
"And more run over by tho cars,"
continued the boy.
No answer again.
"And more of 'em got sick and died,
and I'll bet I've got more money and
havo more fun and peanuts than any
good boy in Detroit!"
"But the good are reworded," quietly
observed the man.
"So are the bad," replied tho boy.
"I'll bet I make fifty ceuts before dark!"
"But tho pood aro respected."
"So urn I. I kin go up to the potd
ofilce and borrow three dollars 'thout
any security, and I'll bet ten to five you
caii't. Cou'ie, now, put up the lucre."
"My boy," sadly observed tho man.
"you muat thiuk of the future. Don t
you want to bo looked up to aud re
spected when yon uro a man?"
"That's too fur ahead," was tho lone
some reply. "If anybody thinks I'm

The two thousand Choetaws still liv
ing in their ancestral homes iu Mis
sissippi return iu their pristine vigor
many of tho usages of their ancestors.
Auio'ng these are the methods
employed iu conducting a courtship aud
the marriage cereaony. Whe a young
Choctaw of Kemper or Neshoba county
sees a maiden who pleases his fauey, he
watches his opportunity until he tiuds
her alone, lie then approaches within
a few yards of her and gently casts a
pebble' toward her, so that it may fall at
her fe t. lie may have to do this throe
or four times before he attracts the
maiden's atteuti-n If this pebble
throwing is agreeable, she soon makes it
uiDifwt; if not, a scornful look and
decided "ekwah" indicates that hia suit
is iu vain.
When a marriage is agreed upon the
loverw appoint a time and place for the
ceremony. On the marriage day the
friends and relative of the prospective
couple meet at tueir respwmo uuuwaur
villages and thence march toward each
other. When they arrive near the mar
riage ground-generally intermediate
space between tho two villages-they
halt within about a hundred yards of
each other. The brothers of the woman
then go across to the opposite party and
bring forward the man and set him down
on a blanket, spread npon tho marriage
ground. The man's sisters then do liae
wise by going over and bringing forward
the woman, and seating hor by the side
of the man. Bometimes, to furnish a
little merriment for the occasion, the wo
man is expected to break loose and run.
Of course she is pursued, captured and
brought back. ,
All parties assemble around tue ex
pectaut couple. A bag of bread is
brought forward by the woman's rela
tives and deposited near her. Iu like
manner the man's relatives bring for
ward a bug of meat aud deposit it near
him. The man's friends and relatives
now begin to throw presents upon the
head and shoulders of the woman,
these presents are of any kind that the
donors may cIioobo to give, as articles of
clothing, money, trinkets, ribbons, etc.
As soou as thrown they are quickly
snatched off by the woman's relatives
and distributed among themselves.
During all this time the couple sit very
quietly aud demurely.uot a word spoken
by either. When tho presents hate been
thrown and distributed the couple, now
man and wife, arise, the provisions
from the bags are spread, and, just as
in civilized life, the ceremony is
rounded off with a festival. Tho festival
over, tho company disperse, and the
gallant groom conducts his bride to his
home, where they enter upon the toils
and icsponsibilities of tho future.

Hats orr.
Dio Lewis accouuts for the baldness of
men in a simple way their habit of keep
ing tho bead constantly covered, rle
says you never Bee a man lose a hnir be
low where the hat touches his skull. It
will take it off as clean as you can shave
it down to exactly that liije, but never a
hair below, if he has been bald fifty
vears. The common black stiff hat, as
impervious as sheet iron, retains the heat
and perspiratioa. The littlo hair glunds,
which bear the sumo relation to the hair
that the seed wheat does to the plant
above the ground, become weak from
the moisture ami heat, und finally bo
come too weuk to sustain the hair. It
fulls out, aud baldness exists. A mau
with a good head of hair needs very lit
tle prottKJtiou where the huir grows. "And
yet," he says, "wo men wear immensely
thick fur caps, and what amounts to
sheet Iron huts and do not dare
step out in a chilly etinosphero a mo
ment lest we talje cold. It is silly, weak,
and really a serious error. The Creator
knew whut he was about when ho cov
ered 0 man's head with hair. It has a
very important function iu protecting
tho'bruiii. Baldness is a serious mis
fortune. It will nover occur in any man
who wears such a hat as I do. a common
high silk hat with five hundred holes in
the top, so that there will be more holes
than hut. This costs nothing; tho butter
will do it when you purchase your hut.
If the nap lo combed back the wrong
way, aud after tho holes are made it be
combed the right way, no ono will ob
serve tho peculiarity. The hat will wear
quite as long the hatter says considera
bly longer because it is dry instead of
moist; in brief, there is not a single ob
jection to it, while it will certainly pre
vent baldness, keep tho top of the head
cool, and prevent much headache."
A scientist says that every adult person
carries euoegh phosphorus in his body
to make at least 4000 of the ordinary two
cent packages of friction matches. That
is a scientitio fact that is of very littlo
value to a man who comes homo in tho
night, smashes everything on the bureau
in searching for a mutch, realizes that all
tho 1000 mutch power phosphorus con
cealed inside of him will not light the
gas.
