New York. "Wasn't it dreadful?"
buzzed the lady with the floating veil,
to the one with the bundle of steum
er rufis, as they came down the gang
plunk of the Olympic. "That dread
ful man slapped him, right in the
eye!"
The Olympic lost a propeller, ran
into a fog and had a fight on board.
The fight was In the smoking room.
There were two blows struck. One
man hit another and he hit the floor.
But the tale's worth telling.
H. C. Adler, a New York business
man, who lives In Paris and who
was coming" home on a visit, sat in
the smoking room Tuesday afternoon.
"I believe there are professional
curd sharps on board," he said.
"That so?" queried a fellow smoker.
"Yes sir!" he replied. "And thut
big fellow with the broad brimmed
hat and the breezy, open work man
ner is one of them."
Lands Right to the Eye.
Somebody "carried the message to
Garcia." The big fellow came on
the run, his coat tails standing out
with wrath. He walked up to Mr.
Adler.
"I understand you've been telling
folks that I'm a professional gamb
ler!" he roared, as he shot a straight
right into Mr. Adler's eye.
While Mr. Adler was taking the
count the man with the broad brim
med hat pulled a bundle of yellow
backs from his pocket. He flung them
down. Then he Jumped on his hat.
"I'm from the west,' he siijd, "and
I can lick my weight In wildcats. I'll
bet $1,000. and there it Is, that there
isn't another man here who dare to
call me a gambler. I'm a western
lumberman und this is my first trip
on the ocean. I won't be culled a
gambler."
Naughty,"' Says Captain.
Captain Haddock heard the rum
pus. He sent nts strong arm squad,
consisting of the purser and the chief
steward to quell It. They took the
westerner and led him gently to the
captain's cabin.
"Naughty! Naughty!" said the
captain. "You must not fight on the
high seas. Remember what happened
to Captain Kldd."
The westerner was quiet during the
remainder of the voyage, while Mr.
Adler nursed a damaged eye back to
nature's color. Mr. Adler said that
he had no proof that the westerner
was a gambler, but be fe'.t sure about
It just the same.

Patient Resembles Wild Animal on
Reaching Insane Asylum.
Pittsburg, Pa. A prisoner in chains
for twenty years, with his parents his
Jailers, Is said to be the strange ex
perience of an Insane man received
as a patient at the Dixmont asylum

thorities of the asylum will not di
vulge the man's name, they admit
that he was shipped to them in a
rough pine box from his home in In
diana county.
When removed from the box' tho
man, who was bound with a rope,
was almost exhausted. His hair and
beard - were more than a foot long.
He wore no clothing and resembled
a wild animal more man a numan
being.
According to the story related to

by the county official and physician
accompanying the patient the un
known man has been insane for
twenty years His condition was kept
secret by his parents, who feared If it

by every member of the famly and
did not leak out until a few days ago,
when the father died. As soon as the
county authorities learned the state
of affairs, they took charge of the
demented man. The only method
known to them for taking the pa
tient to the asylum was the method In
vogue fifty years ago shipment In a
pine box.

gers and spectators.
The bull pup was strolling along

when the bird swooped down from a
shade tree, alighted on the dog's back
and began its attack on the abbre
viated tall.
The astonished dog suddenly sat
down, whereupon the bird changed Its
tactics by darting at the animal In
swift rushes, pecking at eyes, muzzle
and ears and emitting shriek notes of
anger. The dog stood It for a few sec
onds, suddenly bolted, yelping every
ten feet.
"Well, I'll be !" exclaimed the
dog's owner, starting off on the dog's
