Then be it said to the credit of Josephine county, there was not a single insane case in ' the coiuitv passed upon by the au thorities during the entire month of , Hfptember. The average lias kbeen about one each month, which was not ; bail for a county of this size, tin in 1 Hrptember even the average was not 1 kept up. but thero is at least one busy ' man at the courthouse and that is j deputy SheiifT Smith, who is still 1 taking in money paid by tardy tax payers. He finds that the county has collected about fSO.OOO thus far and that this year will probably come I up a bit bettor than is usually the lease. However, it looks now as though several taxpayers, all over j the count? would have ti py extra entits as they are going to per n it their taxes to go delinquent.

I he only routi; was bv the (iliin ami Mississiiii rivers, und I made the trip in one of the big steam (; of that day. The main feature that 1 reiiienilier was seeing men sit lui',' In the caliiii playing cards, with beautifully colored chips. Why Hi u-e.I (he chips I was too young to un derstand. In this connection 1 also re call their leaving the tables occasional ly to pi to a little box ah n:t the size of a "Punch and Judy" shaw, placed firuard lir the cabin, where they drank drinlis of (to mel beautiful cul oi s. The Mississippi was one vast gam bling resort from Cairo to New Or leans. There were llatbuals lilted lip far the purpose that Heated slowly .:.iun the river, tyiui; up at any p .ia! where there were people to be llee. e 1. and wherever there were planters there were victims. One afternoon one of these llatboats deseendiiif; with the cur rent was seen from the shore not far below Memphis to be luruini; In to slmre. The only power aboard was In the arms of men and a couple of loin; sweeps or ears on either si.le. Those on the starboard side flashed In the KiiulU'ht, while the tiller oar left a rip ple astern. The boat In this way was br.ni.uhl ashore, and a hawser was pit out and tied to a stump upon the river bank. That niyht Julian Manin, a younjr planter, stepped aboard the boat and, with one or two of his friends who were al-eady thera. opei'd the iraine. Marau had sold his plantation and ne Kroes n n I was Kiin;; to Itatou Kontfe to marry his sweetheart und take up his residence there. The money he had re ceived was in" bank except a Hundred dollars, with which he proposed to nmiise himself on the llatboat. lie lidded considerably to his hundred dol lars ilurini; the evenim; and. belli'' a chivalrous fellow, considered himself bound to . ba.-k the next day and give the bank a chance for "revem;!'." In n few days the fortune he had In bank was every cent transferred to the safe in the fatborit. That was a u i ei aire. If there are elavahoiis p. ,.f,s .';,c,a 1 gamblers now. we hear nothing of Mieui. There were chiva!:-. us giml Vrs then, and they made i heir inilu, felt.

Ii liafth & Son, Inc. t i a .i That evening M.i'-an. Sterling and two others whom Sterling had asked to be present opened the game on the flat boat. The owner of the o'iittit and two assistants were of the party, making seven in all. They had played fin hour or more when a jackpot was opened, and the pile on the table prew enor mously. Suddenly Ste,"ling chipped one hand down on the money ami whipped out n gun with the other. At the same moment Marau and his two friends drew their weapons and cov ered the three professionals. The coup was effected so quickly that not one of the latter was able to draw. 'Tut jo' arms on the table," ordered Sterling, raking olT the money into his lint. Then, setting the hat on n chair, lie went to the owner of the bont nnd began to search him. "Il-m!" he remarked, drawing sev eral aces held by n clasp attached to n rubber cord In his sleeve. "A cheap device, but good enough to fool usses with." Then, going to the next man. he took a lack of cards from his pock et, held them up to the light and continued: "Marks big enough to seei In the dark. All the court cards nre plain on the hack as on the face." After going through the three men and Ilnding evidence of fraud on nil. he politely asked the owner for the key of the safe. The man, having n pistol muzzle within a few Inches of his ear, complied. Sterling opened the safe and counted out nil amount eipinl to Jin ran s losses and handed It to him. Then ln paid what losses the others h id made from the inonev in the hat. He was himself n winner. and this amount he took from his pock et and tossed It on the table. When the party left the boat thev cut the cable, and It floated down wiili the current. Its profits and losses at Its last landing place had been nil. jfaran left the next day for Baton Iiouge and was married soon after his arrival. Hud It not been for Sterling's lutcrfereine he might have become n professional gambler himself.
