Along the Germantown and Norris- town branch of the Reading railroad, between Ninth and Tenth above Co- lumbia avenue, there still remains a small row of dilapidated tenements, and in one of theso resides Benjamin B. Diehl, forthusis the venerable vendor of erustacean delicacies defined among his fellow men whenever he retires for awhile to the bosom of his family. Here he was found yestorday afternoon by a Press reporter, seated on_the threshold of his dwelling, in- dulging in the dulcet weed and all the luxury of the dolee far niente, while contoinplating with placid content- ment the animated panorama afforded by long trains of laden coal-cars with a background of immense factories, THE OLD CRABMAN'S 11 ‘“How are you, Mr. Crabman the reporter. » “Dat am not my name, sah! You Nyer behole Benjamin Barachias Dichl, sah, and, and don’t you forgit it.

An’ prevous to continuing de episode I shall be happy ter drink de gem’- man’s good fortun in de favorit tipple ob de Germantown young men. The visitor took the hint, and while the old fellow went to bring some whisky he looked around with some curiosity at the contents of Mr. Diehl's parlor. In one corner were the tools and customary collection of antique boots, appertaining to a cobbler’s pro- fession, and framed on the wall above was an illuminated conundrum: ‘‘What is home without a mother?’ On the chimney piece were saveral shells and a ture or two of the ent periods of his career and a framed chromo represent- ing a plantation scene adorned another | portion of the wainscot. The place did not appear either dirty or uncoms fortable, and a comely-colored girl was busily ironing in the adjoining kitchen I war born,” said Dieh), after he had refreshed himself with a copious draught of whisky, on de Eastern sho’ ob Maryland,” Worcester county, on March 4, 1809, My father was a free nigger an’ my mudder a ve, but she war set free shortly afore my birth. My parents died when I war quite a piccanniny so T was taken in " said charge by de oberseers ob de Poor, who at the age of 10 boun’ me till der age of 21, to & man named Joshua Hummond., He war a schoolmaster an’ farmer, an’ I tended the farm to- gedder wid his son Zedekiah an’ three | slaves.

Howsomeber he died after I had been dere five years, an’ dere war quite a collection of hottles foun’ under his bez bed. As 1 had been boun’ by de oberseers til I war 21, 1 had to stay wid Zedekiah, who ’herited de farm. T soon made de discobery dat a young man os 'tended church regular could wallop harder an’ oftener dan an ole man as got drunk all his time, and de ({ dat Zedekiah marked my back wi nhickory stick war a corshun to a aailroad trac’. 8o one fine mornin’ 1 run away, and after a tramp of many weary days I found mysel’in Phila- delphia, war 1took to de whitewashin’ bizness in spring and summer and to hominy selling in winter.

During the great rush to the min- ing regions of the Black Hills, Cheyenne was perhaps the liveliest town on the American Continent. From sunrise until late in the night, | the main stroet was literally packed | with as motley a mass of excited humanity as was ever congre to- gether on God's footstool, Here the prince and the pauper, tho inister and the cut-throat, the man of integ- | rity and the thief, jostled each other upon the crowded thoroughfare, while within the wide open doors of legion of saloons; the clinking of glasses and the sharp voices of the gamesters around the various tables blended in strange melody, Almost " EVERY GAME IN THE CATALOGUE Was here produced to tempt the in-| nocent or allure the professional, and the amounts of money continually changing hands were almost fubulous, The professional gamblers confined themselves exclusively teo the zames of | furo, poker, euchre, soven-up, ete,, | but the ““tenderfoot” was ever ready | to risk the loss of his cash upon the “'snap” games in which the proprietor | lose or had but a decidedly slim chance to win. Many a poor dupe has excitedly reached into his pocket for the little pile for which he labored for months, and in a moment traus- ferred it to the clutches of the polite gambler under the impression that ho could not fail to pick out a certain one of three cards in the seductive game of monte, 4 1t was 1 this lively city that 1 first met the famous French female gamb. ler, HMADAME MURTACHEF Sho was a tall, dark complexioned, keen-eyed woman, with jet Llack hair, and ever wore upon her faco o wi ning smile for all who approached her table. A delicate mustache graced ber upper lip, the hairs black and silken, and from this unfeminine adornment she ganed her sobriquet She was dealing the game of *“Vingt- un” (twenty-one,) and her table was {surrounded by a crowd of players drawn thither by the Maduuc's aflur- ing smile. Money flowed into her coffers rapidly, and T have heard it asserted, that she could, at any time, have retived from business (/) with a fortune ample enough to cnable her to live in grand style the remainder of her life. The madame, invariably, dressed in a neat fitting suit of black, and always conducted herself in a lady- like mauner. She handled her cards with small, shapely, jeweled hands and with a dexterity any gambler might envy. At intervals when her game was in progress she would touch a small card bell and when the waiter appeared would pleasantly ask: “What will you drink, gentlemen’” her in- variable custom being to keep her | sirens elad in tights whom he fo | erected a builc made it appear that the bank must | * with circular tables, around each one of which four chairs were placed. Up stairs wero rows of private hoxes; whero pevsons could sit and. sip their wines unobserved by the crowd below, and it was a standing rale of the establishment that when not on the stage every actress ongaged at the theater must be in these boxes, in stage dress, to entertain visitors and “honey” them into purchasing all the wine possible, Five dollars per bottle was charged for an inferior article, and it was not at all an unusual oceur- ence for a hefuddled individual to spend S50 or £100 in treating the lish ly imagined had fallen desoerately in love with him. ~ These “‘stars” were women of the vilest character, usually the ofiscourings of the free-and-easy shows of Chicago, St Louis or Cin- cinnati.

A common tirck with an actor or actress who had become a favorite was to station about adozen friends in the audience supplied with one or two silver half-dolla s each. At the first these encore friends would throw thei coin upon the stage, when the audience would catch the hint and oftentimes hurl a perfect SHOWER OF (oL around the favorite. A favorite female clog dancer secured as much as $150 1 coin in n single night, and was re- warded every night by sums ranging AND SILVER from €5 to £100. The theatre opened at 9 p. m. and closed at 2 or 3 a. m., the crowd sometimes remaining until breakfast time The proprietor of this theater, J W.
