amount of debts incurred at play, ana
has gone hocauso he sees no wav of re
covering his losses and pnyln ' the debts
already made. Tho career of tho King
of Laecarat In Paris has been a remark
able one, .mid if his wonderful successes
wore alone considered, his example
would bo rather an encouragement to
tho gambler than otherwise; but tho in
terview which we publish below will
how the dink, honeless side of tho
.. picture; and its publication is not the
leant charitable act dono by "Uilly"
Deutach.
W. It. Duutsch Is an American, and.
was for several years a well-known the
atrical manager of New York, having
nco been prominoutly connected with
Booth's Thenars and with other public
r laces of entertainment of that eity.
In rnnio to Europe about two and a
half years ago, and during tho past two
years has beeu a prominent figure at
several of the best known Parisian
tilllbs.
; Tho htorles told of his play seem al
most iucrediiilo, but it is certain that ho
bad two years ago one of the moat re-
, markuble runs of luck over known at
urcla. In August, IHH'2, Mr. Deut.seh
won for twenty-eight consecutive days
at tho Washington and Press Clubs, and
during those days his smallest winning
was eighteen thousand francs and his
Idghost two hundred and sixty thousand
francs, lie never lost on any one of these
days, and his total winnings wore over
, one million, seven humm-il Willisana
francs. That all of this sum has gone,
and much more with it. in two years it
at not necessary to say. How it has gono
tho sumptuous baniiets at lclmonico's,
Mew York, in Pans and in Loudon
ousting thousands and Urns of thousands
f francs each; still further, heavy and
ulueky play, and indeed all the ex
travagances' of amblouly acquired
wealth, will tell.
A correspondent of the Morning
Hews met Mr. Deut.seh before his de
parture and expressed surprise at ills
going.
"ea," said Mr. Deutsch, "Iain going
tack after a terrible experience. 1 have
wperienced all tho tips and downs thata
nan possibly can, and now I
have found the means and the
eourago to return, to begin lite
rer again. I leave with spirits
far from gay, and I am anything except
happy. I go to meet abuse at homo for
tuy folly, and to hear from Paris that I
- have been condemned for what Is una
voidable. I leave with debts behind
ao debts of honor, but somo humiliat
ingwhich it will tako time to pay.
All 1 have left now Is my health and,
what my friends will admit, Integrity of
purpose." .
"llow did you manage to get in so
bad a -position after being worth up
wards of two millions of francs?"
"Yes, I was worth two millions francs
two years ago. Hut no man, except
oue who has made such a sunt in one
nonth, knows how to spend it in so
short a time. The winner at cards Is
tfie most reckless, careless and extrava
gant man living. Ho gives right and
' left, ha literally throws money away,
: and only appreciates his folly whou ho
wauls."
"Why did you not buy an annuity or
put a sum where you could not 'gut it
again and could oulv draw tho niter-
"My Christian friend, I linvo soven
fcoxos full of letters of ad vice: Vntwheu
I havo wanted a hundred francs 1 sel
dom got it.
Tie a beautiful world thnt wo live In,
. 1 lend, or to upend, or to a-lvo In;
Mnt to Ihk or to borrow, or auk for four own,
"lis the very worst world that over was
known.
"Hut there is no use of crying for
pill milk, and 1 do not care to say
, much til out my personal affairs. I
only trust that my experience may tend
to reform amno and discourage others
from continuing In tho pursuit of what
is only a pleasure wlule rortuuo smiles,
out Is always a vice, and to all, ruin,
ttamblors have success, but tho greater
kha success tho greater the fall
and tho greater tho mtsery. A
gambler may In a moment of
kick win, say two hundred thousand
r tin eo hundred thousand francs but
ao sum will repay him for sleepless
lights and for hours of anxiety, for
aighls to ado Into days. No occupation,
legal, political, or mercantile will pay
for Uioxlravagances he must indulga
n. Whilo he is in the full tide of pleas
are the clouds are near, and the gam
bler finds his 'hell on earth.' For every
hourof picn.su re he spends davsof misery
Tho pleasures become only recollections
wlule misery, despair, and often suicuio,
stare lam in tho face.
"A man with the passion forplav will
do anything to procure money in.order
to recover his losses. , no win borrow
live thousand francs from his bank,
one thousand francs from a friend, live
hundred francs from an awiuaintance,
one hundred francs from a comparative
stranger, lifty francs from a club
waiter, twenty irancs irom tho coou,
ton francs from a cabby who may havi
driven him three or four times, and
then live francs from anybody to get
dinner or breakfast with. All taste for
honest Industry leaves you, honor even
takos wings and finally you are slighted
by your friends and vilified by those
you have served."
"You have won and lost large
amounts during tho past two years,
have you not, Mr. Deutsch?
"Yes; my differences in two years
have been fully four million francs
that is, I have won quite two million
and lost over two million.
"How much of this went for percent-
ases to the clutwf" , '
. "Well, I should think that'at least
four hundred thousand or five hundred
thousand went into the clubs as percent
ages. It is only a question of time
when the entire capital of a player
must be consumed by the proprietors of
clubs, and tho various fees, ttc., nec
essary. Play at Paris clubs means cer
tain ruin if a man keens at it long
cnotiirh. Ihey must In time rum every
man who plays at them, and they win
finally consume all the capital or drive
away the capitalists. '
"What do you mean-by ruining all
the tilavers?"
"X mean simply this: lake ten piav-
i . . . . . . .
crs each with ten thousand francs, or
five hundred louis. They take alter
natcly bank' each of an average of fifty
lotus, which costs two louis to the canoite
for each bank. Now they can deal fifty
banks a day, which makes one hundred
louis to the cnuette, and thus in a cer
tain number of days easily calculated
the entire party must have lost the en
tire sum they went in with. Outsido of
this, the taxes are terriblo. In tho
first placo there aro the dues of
tho club; second, the man who
deals a bank at bacqarat of ten louis
must givo one louis to tho house, or ten
f or cent ol tho original Investment.
f ho loses, the players against him win
but uino lotus. II ho wins but one
louis in his bank, the players havo
lost two louis, and tho banker wins noth
ing. Then if a man has occasion to
ask credit at the caisse ho has to pay
one louis per day for every fifty louis ho
has lost. . '
"Tho charges at eearto at the clubs
aro even worse, five francs have to be
paid for each pass, so thut it is easily
possible for two players to play and both
lose. I have played with a gentleman
iorty-six games at ono louis a game.
My opponent won twenty-two and I
won twenty-four times. At tho finish,
therefore. 1 had won two louis from
my friend, but we had paid live francs
for each pass 1 paying six louis alto
gether and my friend livo and a half
fouls, so that the net loss was nine
and a half louis. I lost four louis and
my friend seven and a half.
"J hero Is no chanco for any ono un
less ho has a remarkable run of luck
and then stops. Hut who will do this?
No ono has a 'rlht to plav except tho
man with unlimited capital and the
man with nutuinz. i :
"HiiHides tho proprietors of clubs,
some of tho servants in the gambl'ng
rooms havo made large sums, have they
not?"
"Yes;' there is a garcon at a club in
rarls who, twelve or fourteen years ago,
was an ordinary servant at a hundred
francs a month. Hy small loans of a
loins or liity irancs, charging tremen
duns interest to players, ho built up i
fortune valued at from four to seven
million francs. Ho drives fine horses,
has coachmen and footmen, a splendid
hotel, and some of the most priceless
pictures in rranco.
After a few further remarks of minor
interest on the subject of his experience,
and with expressions of hopo for tho In
tore, Mr. Deutsch took his departure.

Evenings at Home
The long evoninrs, which follow tho
short days, aro lnatle in como families
the happiost of all happy times. The
cares of the day aro ended: tho mother's
resting-tlme has come; tho fattier has
como; tho father has dropped all sorts
of business worries and perplexities, and
tlio whole family throw themselves w.tli
zest into the innocent pleasures of tho
home circle. ,
It is well for tho women of the house
hold to remember that the pleasant
evenings at home aro strong antidotes
to the practice of looking for enjoy
ment abroad, and seeking for pleasure
in by and forbidden places; for relaxa
tion and recreation will bo indulged in
somewhere by most men, and happy aro
they who find in tho home circle tho
diversion they noed. . ,
A. lively game, an intorestinsr ljook

new song to be praetked, will furnish
pastime that will make an evening pass
pleasantly. , , .
A little forethousrht durinz the day. a

and diilcrent ways and means may be

We visited onco in a lure-a family
where it was the duty of each sister, iu
turn, to provido the evening e occupa
tion, and thoro was a pleasant rivalry be
tween thorn as to whoso evening should
be the most enjoyable. The brothers en
tered fully into the spirit of the simple
home entertainments, and wore as loth
to be obligod to spend an evening away
from home as their sisters and parents
were to havo them absent. Every otie
spoke of this family as an uncommonly
united ono, for each and every member
ahowed such a strong attachment for
the home to which each one contributed
to much pleasure. Signal.
A Sofa'l'illew.
A handsome sofa pillow can be made
at small cost; tho material may be
cashmere, sjiould silk, velvet or satin
be dcemod too oxpensive. Soloct a lino
pioeo, an excellent quality will not
come to mora than $1 yard; about
inreo-quarters or a yard win make a
lanro cushion pillow. A rich blue
cashmere or a deep cherry gives a
bright and cheerful effect wlitiu prettily
decorated. Make tho top side as orna
mental as it may he desired; the oppo
site sido is better perfectly plain; run a
largo silk or gold cord around the edge;
this will cost from eight to twelve cents
a yard; two or two and a half yards is
all that is needed; finish tho cornors,
with tassels to correspond, or ribbon
bows; sometimes looping? or a bow-knot
of the cord forma a neat and effective
inish to tho corners. Tho decorativo
design is best wrought in embroidory.
Applique work is handsome, yet the
former is much to bo preferred, espe
cially on all wool fabrics. A lovely
pillow design Is had by clustering flow
ers for instance, Juno roses in oue cor
ner, July pinks the oppos te comer,
balsam widen blossoms in August,
mixed with Paris daisies; tliesoliavo
loar white petals and yellow disc. An
other artistic design has a bunch of
fancy grass, the top of which is Hying
open, as if disturbed by tho wind; on
the ground aro scattered dais es, butter
cups and wild roses, lbe ground is
close cut lawn grass, which is wrought,
in chenille, presenting: four shades o:

and others just ready to light on the

Deer Slalaliiir In Scotland.
A day's stalking, from tho beginning
to the end, is lull of incident and ex
citement. The highest bos may bo
dashed by sudden disappointment, and
there aro perpetual slips between the
cup and the lip. It is so much the belter
when toils have been crowned by suc
cess, and the stag round which your
maneuvers have been concentrating
themselves, at last, in his magnilicent
1roportions, is lying dead at your feet
'irst comes the finding of the deer.
Time after lime your trusty stag may
have been driven into the hillside and
the telescope steadied against it Time
after time the wild landscape may have
been swept in vain. After the closest
examination of each rock and patch of
heather there has not been a glimpse of
hide or of horns, then all at once, ana
ncrhans where vou least cxnecti'd it.
you have seen the littlo herd, of deer
leeding, unsuspicious of dangor.
Tticro is a heavy stag, wo may sup
pose, with a respectable head, and ou
him you have set your affections. Hut
he is surrounded by a small seraglio of
hinds, one or two of them having been
told off upon sentinel duty. Sinking
down uon tho heather, crawling back
behind tho nearest cover, you hold quick
but anxious consultation as to tho cir
cumventing him. A great circuit has
to be made before you can creep down
upon him against tho wind. Taking
the bearings of the herd by certain land
marks on the sky line, you start awav
upon the long detour. You have af-
ody dune considerable walking in the
course of your peregrinations; but it is
now that strength and breath are
tasked, or, rather, they would be tasked
were it not for tho excitement. The
sinewy keeper steps out in most decep
tive stylo, getting over the ground twice
as fast as you might fancy. You may
have to breast suudry stiff hills in suc
cession ere reaching, the last jwint of
vantage, whore you begin tho critical
operations. I here, where you hope
again to sight the deer, is a moment of
intense expectation. Ihey may have
shifted their ground by chance, or may
have taken alarm and left altogether.
To your satisfaction you see that they
are much as they were; but the satis
faction is by no means tinminglcd.
The stag is recumbent and ruminat
ing so quietly that it appear you might
almost step up and stroke him; but one
of the binds on duty is constitutionally
restless, and it is her ceaseless vigilance
you have to elude. Tho approach is a
sharp descent down the hills, anil thnt
makes the task all the more dilhcult.
Then it is that the red Indian instincts
of tho keeper are called into play. He
pioneers tho path,1 if path it can be
called, where you are either crawling
like a snake or groveling like a rated
spaniel. Now you nregnnillng oil your
buttons against the angularities of ini-
iraetieabfo stones. Now von are mak
ing a rush between hillock and hillock,
bent nearly double, while the head of
the scutinel hind happens to bo turned
In the opposite direction
xou know, nevertheless, that sho may
sight you at any moment, or that some
treacherous air current may givo her
your wind, in which ease all your labors
ave been thrown nwav. Or perhaps
your lines of painful approach may have
fallen the broken beil of a mountain
burn, and then all the crawling and
the crouching have to, be dono with the
cold water running in at tho neck of
your shirt and filtering out at the knees
of your knickerbockers. i Surmounting
these, trials and vicissitudes successfully
you may congratulate yourself when
yon find yourself safely ensconced with-
.. " - !!.. I 1 - I
in sixty or eigniy yams ot me itcer.
It is then thnt the keeper may be
thrusting the ritlo into your hand, urg
ing vou to shoot ; it is then vou will do
well to assert your independence. In
Iho lirst place you hao been overheat
ed, overstrained, and then soaked; so
it is next to impossible thut the pulses
can bo beating quietly, or that even by
tho aid of somo convenient slab of stone
von can make sure of sleailvimr the ritle.
In tho next place, as wo have imaginod
tho deer lying down, it is possible he
may offer but a doubtful mark. Yet
undue delay will bo dangerous, as well
as irritating to the nerves. Kach fleet
ing minute is pregnant with hopo or
possible incident. Luck may befriend
you, tho stag may stretch himself and
get up, or a low whistle may at last be
necessary, which will land him at once
ou his legs, when ho will stand station
ary and listening for 'a moment. Then,
as the bullet goes home with a thud be
hind the shoulder, you know that all
your labors are repaid; ' should you
shoot wild and miss or merely maim

Treatment of Criminals.
somewhat remarkable account ap
pears in tho Paris Temps of the way in
which persons convicted of murder are
treated in some of the European States
where capital punishment is cither abol
ished or never enforced. In lielo intuit
appears that many murderers, who are
eoutinod under life sentences, may be
seen "going about unshackled or work
ing at some easy occupation, like toy
making, in colls that have been made "to
look iiomcliko with pictures and other
little things which the convict has
bought oy,t of his earnings. This is one
way of punishing murderers, because
tho King is too tender-hearted to allow
a capital senteneo to take eflect. The
other side of the picture is shown in
Italy, where conscientious scruples also
prevent tho executioner from doing his
duty." Passamante, who tried to niur-
ler King Humbert in 1878, is confined
to tho Islaud of Elba. Ho is secured to
the wall of an almost dark eell by a
chain live feet in length, which is ri rited
to an iron ring around his ankle, and
which does not allow him to lake more
than ono step in any direction. HU
keepers are forbidden te speak to him or
answer his questions. He hits become
mbecile. The most sensational trench
novelist never invented anything worse
than this of the Castile in its ualmiet

Process of Canning Fruit.
The process of canning fruit adopted
by tho large tanneries in u
science. The guess of tho thrifty house
wife as to tho amount of sugar, water
and fruit to mix together Is ttupersedec
in the canneries bv an exact measure
ment of every thing. The following is c
ln ii.f rticriition of tho method of can
ning string beans adopted in oue of the
largest canneries in the State: A score
or more of long tables are piled high
with bright green beans; at each table
there are a dozen or more Chinamen,
who, with nimble fingers, break the tips
of the pod and pull ttie string irom me
sides: after breaking tho pod In three
and four pieces, the beans are put Into o
ke.itle of hot water and washed. After
helnir drained they are taken to a doen
or more , Chinamen, who stand before
the tables with great piles of cans In
front of them. Each can has been filled
about hnlf full of salt water. The Chi
nanian fills tho can' with licans am!
wi.i.riw it mlilinir to or tukin? from U
brimr it to the exact weight The tilled
cans aro taken on trucks to other tables
where a number of Celestials aro wait-
inr to solder them. When they are
eli4i'il t.hev sre out on travs. each hold
ing forty or more caus. T ho trays are
piled in great wooden vats filled with
water. Through the bottom of tho vat
runs a steam pipe full of holes. The
steam is turned on and in an instant th
hot steam is bubbling up through the
water. In a few minutes the water -is
brought to a boil and tho beans begin
to cook. The trays are taken out and a
small hole punched In the top of each
can. The air rushes out of tho cau at
once and before it cools off and more
air enters the small hole is closed by a
piece of solder. Iu this way almost ull
of the air in tho cans Is removed. ' The
cans are a.'ain placed on tho trays am
put into the boiling water, when they
cook tho requisite time. The trays are
then taken out and tho labels pasted-on
the cans, which aro then placed in
cases ready for shipment. The wholo
process does not occupy more than half
an hour from the time tho fruit or veg
etable is placed on tho table for picking
till it is cooked and canned, ami wacKeu.
The process of making jellies anil
jams is as exact and expeditious. The
currants or wnntever oinor irun or oer
ries tho jelly is made of are lirst placed
in great copper kettles, which aro
slightly heated bv steam. Tho currants
are softened a little by the neat ami
miiile ensv to urefis. Thev tire then
placed in a press and all the juice
squeezed out of them. Tho pure juice
is taken back to the polished Kettles,
which shine like a mirror in the sun.
and for every gallon of juice, which
weighs eight pounds, there is added six
pounds ol sugar. After fifteen minutes'
cooking the juice and sugar, "jells," as

half pound cans, which are labeled and
packed in cases, ready ior t-oipmcnt.
An interesting experiment was tne.i
in the cannery a few davsago in regard
to tliu use of sugar in making jellies,
The proprietors desired to know
whether it was .more economical to use
much or little sugar. He put thirty
gallons of juice into tho bright kettle
and one hundred and twenty pounds ol
sugar, that being four pounds to the
gallon, lie found that it took a long
while for tho juice to "jell," because
the juice could absorb much more sugar
and was unite thin. It did not "jell
till a largo n mount of the) juice had
evaporated. iNext he tried oue hundred
and fifty pounds of sugar with thirty
gallons of juice, and found that it took
some time fur the mixture to tie brought
to "jell," but not so long as in the tirst
ease. Again ho mixed one hundred and
eighty pounds of sugar and thirty gul
ions of juice. in a lew moments the
mixture "jelled and little juice was
lost by evaporation. He found that th
jelly of all three experiments was of tho
same quality, but that he made one
hundred and thirty cans of the first,
one hundred and sixty of the second and
onu hundred and ninety-two of the
third mixture. He found that it was
more economical to use a large amount
of sugar with the juice. It not only
produced more cans of jolly iu propor
tion to the amount of juice and sugar

Or. Robert Newton, late President bf the
Eclectic College, of the eity of New York, and '
formerly of Cincinnati, Ohio, used DR. WM.r
HALL'S BALSAM very extensively In his prac
tice, as many of his patients now living, and re-s
stored to health by the use of this Invaluable
medicine, can amply testify. He always said1
that so good a remedy ought not to be consid
ered merely as a patent medicine, but that It
ought to be prescribed freely by every physician
as a sovereign remedy In all cases of Lung din- '
eases. It cures Consumption, and all pectoral
complaints.
