Young men oujht not to play poker or old meu, for that matter at any time, arftl when poker is played in business hours the hcinonsness -of the act is flagrant. So, says the New York lress, when President Wan-en Elliott, of the Wilmington & Weldon railway, came unexpectedly upon a group of his young men playing poker, with coffee beans for chips, the other day, he accepted their explanation that there was no work on hand and the game was "just for amusement." At some remote period of his existence Mr. Elliott had been initiated into the intricacies of the game, and so he drew up a chair and watched it ivith inter est. Each young man had in front of him a pile of coffee beans, which, as they were careful to explain to the president, were of no value whatever. As a matter of fact, they had been bought of the banker for twenty-five cents each. The president of the road watched the game with mild interest, , and from time to time absently helped ! himself to a pinch of beans from the different piles on the table, masticat ing them with the indifferent air of a :nan who knew that unground coffee was only forty cents pound. The an guish of the young men, who saw their chips melt away, was poignant, but nobody dared to explain. When the president had consumed all the leans in sight he said good night in the most siffablo way and went off with an inno cent smile on his rosy, cheerful face. The gcutUiiuan who kept the bank and had no chips to redeem is now a warm admirer of the president. I THE EVERL ACTING CLUB. An Odd Organization Tout Continued In KeHHlon t,i Vear jtrctind. Addison in one of his papers de scribed the Everlasting club. It con sisted of a hundred members, who di vided the whole twenty-four hours among them in such a manner that the club sat day and night from one end of the year to another, no part- presum ing to rise until they were relieved by those who were in course to succeed them. By this means a member of the Everlasting club never wanted com pany; for though he was not upon duty himself he was sure to find some who were; so that if he were disposed to take a whet, a nooning, an evening's draught, or a bottle after midnight, he went to the club and found a. knot of friends to his mind. It was a maxim in this clnli that the steward never died; for as they succeeded one another by way of rotation, no man was to quit the great elbow-chair which stood at the upper end of the table, till his suc cessor was in readiness to fill it; inso , much that there had not been a sede vacaute in the memory of man. This club was instituted about the middle of the English civil wars, and con tinued without interruption until the time of the great London fire in 166C.J The steward at that time maintained his post till he had liked to have been blown up with a neighboring house; and would not leave the chair at last until lie had emptied all the bottles on t he ' table and received repeated di rections from the club to withdraw himself.

As three men were standing in front of the bar of a Smithfield street saloon the other day, says the Pittsburgh Dis patch, one picked up the glass of whisky that was placed before him and, tasting it, made a face that looked as if he had taken poison. "My, but that's rank stuff," said he, as he put down his glass and wiped off his mouth with his handkerchief. "That's almost as bad as the whisky we got out west during the great gold and silver excite ment. I remember in Leadville there was a wag kept a saloon who did not try to disguise the quality of the liquor that passed over his bar, but rather made careful preparations for the effects that he knew it would cause. It is said that a tenderfoot once came in and asked for a whisky. He was passed a bottle and a glass. Then, to his surprise, the bartender placed a small whisk broom by the side of the bottle. Of course he was puzzled, but he poured out his drink and drank it slowly, unwilling to profess ignorance in the ways of the wild west and think ing that some person might come to his rescue. The door, opened and he saw the man who saved him. A big, burly fellow, bristling with revolvers antl bowie knives, stepped in the door and, going up to the bar, ordered whisky in a voice that 6eemed to come from somewhere below the cellar. A bottle and glass were passed to him and, as before, a whisk broom was added to the layout. . The tenderfoot wa tched the man carefully. He poured out a good-sized glassful, then, after gulping it down, quietly picked up the whisk broom and, going over to a cor ner of the room, brushed away the sand from a portion of the floor. He then lay down and had a fit. ' But, -of course, all the whisky we got out there was not as bad as that." ARTIFICIAL.. MARBLE.' The Natural Stone Is Now Closely Imi tated by Chemical Means. - Marble is now so closely imitated by chemical means that there is "often great difficulty in telling the imitation from the natural stone, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. By a new proc ess limestone or chalk may be con verted into the. nature of marble of any tint or combination of shades, while the specific gravity is increased.' On the surface of the water bath used for the veining there is sprinkled a varnish composed of scsquioxide of iron, gum and turpentine, and, water being unstable, a freedom of design is obtained, cspecia lly when the tur pentine is broken up by the addition of soap. After the stone is dipped in tur pentine it is immersed in solutions of sulphate of iron, copper, or zinc, sep arate or in combination. The difference in shades is obtained by varying the per iod of immersion and the order of tanks used. Copper and iron sulphate give dark colors, zinc and iron alternately give light yellow, while the use of the three consecutively gives dark vellow and brown in variegated tints. After being treated in the sul phate baths the stone is immersed in a warm-water bath to fix the colors, all air being meanwhile expelled. The color is said to permeate the full thickness of the stone, which is after ward dried in an oven. The next step is an immersion in an indurating bath of solution of sulphate of zinc, which so closes up the pores and hardens the stone that it accpiires nearly the den sity of natural marble, and is then ready for polishing in the ordinary way. . SMALLPOX IN MEXICO. Ignorant Natives I-ook Upon It as a Vis. Itatlon of Divine Wrath. "The poor and ignorant class of Mexicans have an uncanny religious superstition about smallpox," said a traveler to a St. Louis Republic man. "On a recent visit to the interior of Mexico I saw mothers carrying around in their arms babies whose little bodies were almost eaten up by smallpox. 1 wasof course shocked at the frightful spectacle, and even offered one deluded mother money if she would take her terribly afflicted child home and call in a physician to attend it. ' But she re fused my proffer with scorn and began to croon some weird incantation as she tenderly caressed ' the little half-clad sufferer in her arms. I afterward learned that the ignorant class of Mex icans consider au outbreak of the red pest in their miserable hovels a visita tion of 'Divine wrath for some sin they have committed. So set are they in this belief that they will do noth ing whatever to check the ravages of the disease except when it attacks their infants, to take the victims in their arms, press them closely to their breasts and pray devoutly and contin uously to God to forgive them for their wickedness. Of course the smallpox runs its course after awhile, though never before claiming several members of every family as victims; but not un til it does arc the afflicted parents purged of their sins." Ouaint Old White Meeting-Houses. . , In the midst of the prevailing craze for odd and bizarre styles of architec ture, it is pleasing to come across a plea for the simple and homely build ings such as contented our forefathers. AVilliam Henry Bishop, in an article in Century, in which he gives his experi ences while searching for a summer 'home in upper New England in the form of an abandoned farm, says: "Two small white meeting-houses show their Christopher Wren steeples complacently. Time has been when all these white country meeting-houses alike seemed to freeze the imagination with their coldness; but times change, and we with them. The charming grace and lightness of design that many of them possess have been rec ognized; their whiteness is a refresh ing spot amid the greenery; in short, they are coming back into favor again, with the many other nice old-fashioned things of the period, and the in vasion of Gothic chapels that succeed ed them had better look well to the se curity of its domination." , . m Yorlt ' Weekly AND- SHERIFF'S SALE.
