Toledo Blade We had on board, as a matter ot course, the betting young man from Chicago. No steamer ever sailed that did not have this young fellow aboard and there is enough of them to last the Atlantic for a great many years He knew everything that everybody thinks they know, but do not, and bis delight was to propound a query, and then, when you had answered it, to very coolly and exasperatingly re- mark, “Bet yer wrong.' The matter would be so simple, and one of so common repute, that im- mediately you accepted the wager, only to find that in some minute par- ticular you were wrong, and that the knowing youth had won, For instance: 3 ompson, do you know how many states there are in the union {” Now, any citizen of the United States who votes, and is eligible to the presidency, ought to know how many states there are in his beloved coun- try without thinking, but how many can say, ofthand? And so poor, Thompson answered : “What a question ! know.” ‘* Bet yer bottle ye don't.” “ Done,” ** There are—" And then Thompson would find himself figuring the very important problem as to whether Colorado had been admitted, and Nevada and Ore- gon, and he would decide that one had and the other hadn’t, and finally stato the number, with great certainty that it was wrong. The Chicago man's crowning bet oc- curred the last day out. The smoking- room was tolerably full, as were the occupants, and everybody was bored, as everybody is on the last day., Tho Chicago man had been silent for an hour, when suddenly he broke out : ““Gentlemen—"" ““Oh, no more bets,” was the excla- mation of the entife party. *Give us a_rest.” “I don’t wantto bet, but I can show you something curious,” “Well 27 ‘I say it and mean it. I can drink aglass of water without it's goine down my throat.” L Am{gel it into your stomach !" ‘¢ Certainly.” There was a silence of considerable more than a minute. Every man in the room had been victimized by this gatherer of trifles, and there was a general disposition to get the better of him in some way if possible. Here was the opportunity. How could a man get a glass of water into his sto- mach without it going down his throat? Impossible! And so the usual bottle of wine was wagered, and the Chicago man proceeded to accomplish the sup- posed impossible feat., It was very easily done. All he did was to stand upon his head on the seat that runs around the room and swallows a glass of water. It went to his stomach, but it did not go down his throat. It went up his throat. And so his last tri- umph was greater than all his previous ones, for every man in the room had been eager to accept his wager, From that time out had he offered to wager that he would swallow his own head he would have rot no takers THE YOUNG MAN FROM OSHKOSH. Among the passengers was a youn, man_from Oshkosh, Wis., named Tribbetts, He was an excellent young man of his kind, and he very soon ac- quired the reputation, which he de- served, of being the best poker player on the ship. He was uncasy till a game was organized in the morning, and he growled ferociously when the lichts were turned down at 12 at night. He was impatient with slow players, because, as he said, all the time they wasted was so much loss to him, He could drink more Scotch whisky than any one on the ship, and he was the pet of the entire: crew, for his hand was always in his pocket. He ruined the rest of the passengers by his reck- less liberality, His father was a rich Wisconsin farmer and this was his first experience in travel, What time hecould spare from poker bottle of wine you're Of course T DAILY BEE: are having which they do to as certain the speed the ship is making. Mr. Inman, the owner of this ship, is a very wealthy man, and he has every- thing of the best. He vessel with nothing but black-walnut logs to heave, while the others use pine or poplar. Capt. Leitch is a very humane man, and;never uses profane language to this crew. On the other ships the men who go aloft are compelled to climb tarred-rope ladders, but Capt Leitch has passenger-elevators rigged to the masts; such as you saw in the Palmer House in Chicago, which they sit’ comfortably, and arc hoisted up by a steam-engine. “‘Great heavens. You arc not sure- ly going to send that?” “‘Why not! What is an old lady in silver spectacles ona farm thirty miles from any water more than a well go ing to know about a steamer’ 1 must write her something, for she persuad- ed the old gentleman to let me take the trip. Tain't ungrateful, 1 ain't. T'll give her one good letter, anyhow. Why, by the way you talk 1 should suppose you never had a mother, and if you had, that you didn’t know how to treat her. T hate a man who don't love his mother and isn't willing to sacrifice himself for her. All T can do for her now is to write to her, and write such letters as will intcrest her, and the dear old girl is goingto get them, if the pen and ink lold out, and they are going to be good ones, too,” I have gotto bea good deal of a sailor, and if it were not for leaving you, weich T couldn’t do, T believe should take one of these ships myself, I know all about starboard and port, —vport used to be the larboard, and 1 can tell the stern from the bow. On a ship you don’t say ““I will go down-stairs,” but you say “I will go below.” One would think that T had been born on the sea, and was a true child of the ocean. Owing to my strictly temperate habits at home, and my absolute ab- stemiousness on the ship, I have es- caped the terrors of sea-sickness, As you taught me, true happiness can only be found in virtue. The wicked young man from New York has been sick half the time, as a young man who keeps a bottle in his room should be. The nice woolen stockings you knit for me have been a great comfort, and all I regret is, T am afraid I have not enough of them to last me till I get home. (The young villain had purchased in New York an assortment of the most picturesque hosiery Yrucumblo, which he was wearing with low cut shoes. The woolen stockings he gave to his room-steward.) The tracts you putin my valise I have read over and over again, and have lent them since to the passen- gers who prefer serious reading to trashy novels and literature of that kind. What time I have had to spare for other reading I have devoted to books of travel so that I may see Europe intelligently. (“fiythu way,” he stopped to say, “are the Argyle rooms in London actually closed, and is the Mabille in Paris as lively as it used to be! Great Cwsar! won't I make it lively for them ") In another day we shall land in Liverpool, and then I shall be only five hours from London, 1 long to reach London, forI doso desire to hear Spurgeon, and attend the Exeter hall meetings, as you desired me. But as we shall reach London on Tuesday I shall be compelled to wait till the following Sunday, five long days. Please, ma, have pa send me a draft at my address at London, at once, T find the expense of travel is much greater than I supposed, and I fear T shall not have enough. Your affec- tionate son, Lemuer, ““There,” said Lemuel, as he sealed the letter, “‘that is what I call a good letter. The old lady will read it over and over to herself, and then she will read it to all the neighbors, It will do her a heap of good. Good-by. The boys are waiting for me in the smok- ing-room.” And stopping at the bar to_take a drink — the liberality of English measure was not too great for him- he was, a minute after, absorbed in the mysteries of poker, and was and his meals was devoted to writing a| “‘raking in” the money of the others letter to his mother, for whom the scapegrace did seem to have a great deal of respect and a considerable nount of love. His letter was fin- ished the day before we made Queens- town, so that he could mail it from there. He read it to me, The sen- f|tences in parenthesis were his com- ments: ON Boarp tHE Cr1y oF RIcHMOND, NEAR QUEENsTOWN, May 23, 1881,— Dear Morner: While thereis every- thing to interest one from the interior in a sea voyage, I confess that I have not enjoyed the passage at all. I have no heart for it, for my mind is contin- ually on you and my home in the far west. (You see it will please the old lady to know I am thinking of her all the time, Didn’t I scoop in that jack- pot nicely last evening? Hadn’t a thing B i W actually opened it with three deuces.) The inp is one of the strongest and best on the ocean, and is communded and manned by the best sailors on the sea. The passengers are all good, serious people, with perhaps one exception. There is one young man from New York of dissolute habits, who has a bottle of whisky in his room, and who actually tried to tempt me to play cards with him, But he is known and avoided by the entire company. We have regular services in the grand saloon every morning, and oe- casional meetings for the vocal exer- cises and conversation at other hours, I have just come from one at which— ““You are not going to send this in- fernal aggregation of lies to your mother, are you?” 1 asked, “Why not! She don't know an better, and it will make her feel gmn‘).' I have wmy opinion of & man who won't give his 0ld mother a pleasure when he can justas well as not, I will, you bet.” ‘‘But such atrocious lies!” “I'll change that. 1.can stand lies of that kind when they are told in so 00d a cause, Ilove my mother, I 0, I’Lul.‘u see where was 1§ Oh, yes. T have just come from one at which the discussiod was mostly on the pro- gress of missions in the far west. (The old lady is treasurer of a society for Orvica—Jacobs' Block, corer Copitol avenue sad Fifteenth strest, Owaba Nob. the conversion of the Apaches, or some other tribe.) Just now the sailors at a lively rate. And the letter went to the good old mother, and probably did her good. And she doubtless worried the old gentleman till he sent the graceless fellow a remittance. Boys can always be sure of their mothers,—would that mothers could only be half as sure of their boys. “Ever Your Annie,” She lett the élevator with an energy that sent the platform rebounding several feet, and flaghed into the hum- ble den of the city editor with a rush that made even the portraits of cele- brated base-ball clubs turn pale. Then she towered over the pale young man at the table and said: “I want to see a good reporter— one that's got some get up in him!” The young man managed to insist that all the local staff were energetic young fellows who were working them- selves into early graves, over which the tears of great sorrow would fall from many eyes, “Oh, 1 know all about them,” she continued, ““Some of them can get at some things that others couldn't get e “Well, madam?’ suggested young man with a pause, *‘My husband,” she continued, ital- icisg the my, ‘“‘looks considerably younger than he is, and he is carrying on flirtations all the time. I found a letter in his pocket last night, and it will give you a good article for the paper if your reporter can find out who the poor little fool is. She thinks my husband is a single man,” *‘Well, madam to what extent has the entanglement gone?”’ “T'msure I don't know; but she ought to know that he is a married man, I haven't got the letter with me, but she said in it that she was a picture of death, and that she was much ubl't d to him for the book he had sent, but she wasn’t able to read, and for him to send her a basket of fruit and a bottle of medicine; and the funt think of a girl wanting her sweet- heart to send her some medicine! Why, I think it's shameful, and the mudu. ridiculous thing I ever heard of, ey ke ‘‘But,"” interposed the weary jour- nalist, “‘it would appear to {m your furnished his | JULY 1, 1881. husband’s fault and not the girl's, if | she thinks him unmarried. He has evidently been deceiving her.” “Now, don't you fret yourself about | that " answered the business-like young woman. “If you can just manage to let her know, T'll attend to my husband’s side of it. I'm just waiting tor him to come home this evening.” ““What was the namo ¢ note 1" “‘Fver your Annie,’” and she smiled a grim smile as she utterod the confiding phrase. “T'll make him ever her John when he shows up. You just put that_in to show ‘em T'm on the racket, and if T hear any more I'll come for a reporter to hunt it down,” And 5o Annie had better lay mighty low and keep very dark, if she docs not want the picture of death im- proved upon by an irate and energetic wife, gned to the RE, PREPARATIONS FOR THE GLORIOUS 4TH In order to close out our whole stock of Millinery before July 4th, the following sweeping reduc- ductions have been made. 700 LADIES’ AND CHILDREN'S HATS Ranging in price from 7dc to £1.25 each.

Carson Appeal Now that every newspaper in the landiscontributing little reminiscences of Carlyle to the general fund, The Appeal has taken the pains to gather u\n several anecdotes of the great man which have never seen print. About five years ago, the prince of Vales called at Carlyle's house and was asked to dinner. The great eritic gaye the prince a bowl of mush and reserving quail on_toast, f egs, and a bottle of Budweis tor himself. The prince said: “1 don't like mush,” “Then gnaw the toothpicks, you d——d impudent rascal; who the devil invited you to my house, anyway,” The prince was guite delighted with the sturdy old Scotchman’s bluntness, and when he got home laughed very heartily over it. One day Olive Harper, correspon- dent of The Alta, called to spend the afternoon, and hegged Carlylo to give his opinion of the great writers, “I hope you adore Dickens?” she ad the i 80, YOU—— ass. 1 tell you don't mention Thackeray tome, or I'll brain you with a poler, “Walter Scott?” “‘The P 60 LADIES AND MISSES’ TRIMMED HATS Worth from £2.50 to #3.75.

It cameto me from America wrapped around a bottle of California wine. The wine was beast- ly, and the letter like the wine, only worse. Nothing but dregs. ~Here, Jeemes, kick this woman out of the house,” Miss Harper afterward wrote o column letter to The Alta describing her charming evening with the great man, ‘When Daniel Webster was in Eng- land he met Carlyle on the street and introduced himself. Mistaking him for Noah Webster he gathered a brick and knocked five front teeth in, shouting savagely. ‘‘Are you the-—-— who d(-m.rnyeg the English language?” Finding next day that he had made a mistake and hit _the orator, he was very sorry that he had not known it at the time, and calling at the hotel with a shotgun filled Dan with No. 6 goose-shot, Webster was very fond of telling this anecdote, which he thought was very amusing, and gave the shots to his ~friends as souvenirs of the meeting.
