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.

A BROOM WITH EACH DRINK.
The Kind of Whisky .Tliey r'oWl In Lead
. ville In Early Days.
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." , .
