Long Bill Learns a Trick in Piute Poker. San Francises Call Tt remains to be explained just why every new mining camp locates, fencos in and roughly lays out in walks cut through the sagebrush, a buryi g ground immediately after the camp | rest, as there was always itself is located. The first saloon having been opened, and the rude code of minmg laws adopted, the locator’s next duty, always performed is to establish a burying ground on some convenient knoll, and then wait with scarcely concealed impatience for an opportunity to appropriately dedi- cate it, There may natural sequence_observed in the first order of events: The saloon, the laws, the burying-ground. The first two are the chief elements of cause, con- tributing toward the subscquent events which make the tence of the burying-ground a wise public measure. he decisive argument of the pistol, t.rmi of cards in the saloon, and the scatter- ing remarks of the double-barreled shoteun, upholding a claim under the accepted codo of laws, furnish the op- portunity for a proper opening, so to say, of the cemetery. The first burial is a sort of first-night-of-the-opera affair, A mining eamp with anun- occupied cemetery sets up no claim as a live or promising camp. It realizes its youth and inexperience and the hollowness of its pretensions, and keeps discreetly quiet. THE FIRST KILLING And the subsequent planting of the late lamented, therefore, are matters of importance and great importance and great cause for congratulations. The dweller in civilized lands, and the inquiring tenderfoot, have long mis- apprehended this question. The flip- pant writers on an uninformed press have contented themselves with the theory that a mining camp'’s pride in the possession|of bad men and sure shots, was in the notoriety their deeds gave the camp. How unjust, unkind and superficial, It is not in the notoriety they tring, but the yeoman service they d» in populating the burying-g ound, that make the bad mer esteemed ritizens and objects of pride. When Aurora, Nevada, first bloomed forth ¢s & mining camp in all the glory of tlree saloons, each run- ning two gambling games, one frame and cotton-wal hotel, and various promising mims, there was still an unsatisfied lofging, a reaching out after a highet and nobler plane of oxistence; forls week had passed since the cemetery {was laid out, yet it re- mained uninhtbited. Pioneer citizens, who had locapa in the camps weeks before avertedtheir eyes in conscious insignificance jvhen the new arrivals anxiously inglired the number of burials, The fdges were rich in free co was)seeking investments. Theroad to Glrson was being made vy freight teams, and ) fflld to be sur| and capital frulfl'Snn‘T“ £ the passable for h one ot the sal whiskey for a b a glass! Yet where- in lay the glorgpf all this, with an un- occupied cemjtery mocking the promise of a {jricht future? It is needless then, §¥ describe the feelings of the camp wlk, one night, a prom- inent citizen sl ““Guerrilla” Gibson —s0 called fronfhis habit of preying upon the ungagihd chips and coin of faro players. Gifion was never known to have had a fr}nd in the world. He ! had long existe¢junder the cloud of H by his appellation, and in a commuyity striving after the reputation of sqdare game and fair players, no greajgr depth of infamy could be attained'han to be known as a “‘check guerrilla’’ A RE}IVAL. Yet next to the citizen who had made Gibson desimble and usoful, by making him dead, the corpse iself re- ceived the greateet smount of respect- ful attention, New life and/ emergy took possession of the camp.” fndus- try thrived and & mising ‘woom set in. After that the burying ground became a spevial boast, for ¢he seitle- ment of advertz mining ‘claims was attended with frequent shooting af- fairs; miners fell down shafts, and blew themselves up with powder as if with an eye single to the permenvuce and glory of the cemetery, and ro- sultingly the ¢amp. |Years aften, I saw that cemetery, he camy was deserted, and Goldsmith's ‘‘Duserted Village' was a scene o.s cheertul, bub- bling life and gaiety edinpared tw any deserted mining camp, But who can describe the desolation of a deserted mming camp's deserted cemstery! The only path not choked up with sagebrush was one used by the Piutcs in going to and from the camp, and walking along that path | discovered a weather-browned head-board, on G, GIBSON, Who died for the Sbry 5 of the i 4 cAMP, 3 < It was during that visit to Aurora that 1 made the acquaintence of Long Bill, an estimable gambler, and the | 8'% most chaming liar I ever met. He is known to be the only white man who ever mastered tho mysteries of Piute poker. He lived to reyrei that dis- tinction, however. In the early days of Aurora the Indisns thereabouts earned in one way and another, eon- siderabloe money, The young bucks shot rabbits and quail, which they sold at any price their untutored innocence suggested -gonerally a fabulous price, The old bucks grubbed sage-brush for fuel, and the squaws did such wash- ing of flannel shirts and cotton table- cloths as was required. All these earnings, by sure 'and nop)| ro cess, centered in the hands poker-players in the tribe. LONG BILL LEARNS ®uk 5. Long Bill, obserying thi and learned the gawme, wh unpracticed eye, has abo systom about it as has the he bos! me sort of | | Tndians had none. Ho lost evergthing s were already selling |, of a woman learning to play lawn ten- nis, But Bill learned the game, and, with a superior aptitude for gambling, beat them at it, in such odd hours as he could spare away from his own taro-table, The Indians played; lost agan and again, and then thought the matter over. Early one morning a squaw ontered the saloon where Bill | dealt faro, and asked the bar keeper | for all the unused packs of cards he had on hand. There were n\mmr- five packs, which she purchased with- out a word and walked away. An hour afterward she came back, weep- ing Dbitterly, followed by a stalwart buck, who threw down twenty-four of the pasks, and explained, apparently, in a lordly rage, that the squaw wa: “heep big-a fool-a.” She had beew| told to buy only one pack. The bag keeper charged the Indian three prices for the one pack, and good- naturedly feturned the money for the a ready sal for them, The next day after that Long Bil struck a rich Pinto poker game on the sunny side of a vacant lot. Ho tok a hand and lost. He sent a Piutotoy to the saloon for & half dozen packs of | eard (Tn a mining camp o peker decl not used for more thaw ‘o hands avound.) Bill 'continugd to lose, and sent for moro cards, a the | he had with hiwm. - Then he gebmad, went to the saloon and returned with all the money he could borrow, | wise with the remaining pack of cards, The game grew in size and faterest. The playing was on av old red blanket stretched on tho ground, around which the players squatted ecoss-leg- leged. Back of them stood & circle of ‘squaws, papoose laden, and tke picture was completed as to the figires by a lot of skulking yellow dogs, so dear to the Indian youth’s hieact. Pack after pack of cards was opaued, dealt and thrown away, and stl Bill lost. The bucks’' faces were stolid, the sqaws’ inflexible and the pipooses’ inis movable; but Bill’s was a fine study df rage and surprise, Bill's last dollar went with the last deal of the last deck. When here: turned to the saloon, and was steady- ing his nerves with several fingers of brandy, the barkeeper remarked: ‘‘I didn’t know, Bill, when you bought all those cards, that yot.'d return 'em un- used, like Piute Sam did, tother day. What luck, old son?” Then a suspicion the size of amoun- tain tell upon Bill, but he didn’t say a word even when hehad made a dis- covery by going and examining the back of one of the cards. He only muttered to himself, ‘“Who'd think of looking for marks on a pack of cards you buy yourself and break the wrap- per oft of?"’ But the story got around, despite Bill's efforts to keep it dark. One of the Piutes, in the excitement of his success, got himself gloriously drunk, and talked about how they had doc- tored the cards in Bill's own place—— poisoned the very foumtain-head of Jjustice, so to sa; te MR.

He had a hag- gard look, and kept his hands contin- ually in his pockets, for he had mort- gaged his farm for 800 and come to San Francisco to take unto himself a wife, and was in mortal fear lest some sharper should spring some city fraud upon him. He put up at a third: class hotel and ‘‘cale’lated he’d range ‘round a bit and take pints on femi- nine beauty.” “Old Crisis Hopkins” happened ing hus *‘No hell! No devil! No here- after! Righe this way, gentlemen. Matrunonial paper! Large list of la- dies in tho present number.

A little thing hke that, however, need mnot stand in the way, She knew where she could get a divorce turned out ready made ‘in three days for $200, Could Mr. Sparks of Yreka put up that amount of coin? He could, and would and did. Four days after the mairiage bells were to be set a-going, and Mr. Sparks of Yreka was to take unto himself to wife, Nancy Sprig- ins, But Mr. Sparks of Yreka didn't wed Nanoy b‘firig ins, for on that very morning his honor was_occupied in iving her ten days in lieu of $10 fine for getting drunk and raising a dis- turbance, and she had not enough of Mr, Sparks’ $200 left to meet the de- mand, But the gentleman from Siskiyou had come down for & wife, and he swore he would capture one if he had to go through the whole list. The next candidate for a share of Mr, Sparks’ affections and spending-money was a maiden lady of uncertain age and most mellifluous name, Miss Emily Sweot. mers, and laid on the paint in a style that would have put the most accom- plished scenic painter to blush, Mr. tudied | Sparks admitted that he was fifty-five| = to the | anyway, although he didn’t correctl, much { remember, and looked a mild reproac! ations| when she suggested that his ‘hair | NOW. tw along about that time, merrily chant- |1 A ad if it had ‘departed. at lonst thatfong ago. ad ho any property?” Well; he rather calenlated he had, £100,000 ntine anda £10,000ranch od the sealyr any.” THE HONBYMOON BEAINS Mr. Sparks, of Yreka, left that eve- nfng With hie bride.

But aftor he had walked three miles through he wopds and brought up in front of a shake cabin of most primitive build and diminutive proportions, ghe came back to earth. “‘Where's the house, Mr., Sparks!” demanded the bride, with a wicked gleam in her eye “Right here,” returned the guilty Mr. Sparks of Yrcka, as his« knees smote together. ‘‘Oh, heaven!” shricked | the,horri- fied lady, as she flung horgeli! despair- ingly over the ash birtel at the door, Sparks, full of remdrgé andh foar, cast on his kneos boeside her, can ] do to pleage you?” he asked *'What el Y6t i) said the hy terieal lady, brfeiig up, “*Build m stonghotige, ity mea piano, in't got no money,” pleaded od Spurks, * “You have eredit," haven't you!” snapped his ddeidedly hetter half. “Ldon’t lmow about that, either,” muttered tho deceivers TRUE WOMANLY REVENGE, Next morning's sun was not_two hours high hefore the new Muys, Sparks had ordered $500 worth of furniture and the plans of a new resi- dence. ' ““Charge it to my husband,” said she, with an engaging smile, “Could’t think of it mi'am,” meek- ly protested the storekeeper and the ‘nrghitect. X Whan they told her that the only ming Sparks owned was an old hole on the ‘fillaide, and that his ranch comprised just twentyacres, valued at $-,000, and mortgaged for 8800, there was some excitowent in Yreka, The leading legal luminary of Siski you was spoiling paper with a divorce case inside of twenty minutes. Then sent for Mr Sparks and he came; but, he had followed Toodle’s excellent ad- vice meanwhile, and braced up, and was looking for a fight., He said he valued his mine at $100,000, and he could whip the man who said it wasn't worth it, and more, too. No- body said it was not. ‘“‘Wouldn’t somebody please insinuate that that thar ranch of his wasn’t worth $10,- 000?” Nobody was: assessing valua- tions that day. He’d heard some talk about a divorce. “Did anybody want a divorce?” Nobody did. They left Mr. and Mrs. Sparks alone for a while, and he was just five minutes in convincing his darling that a di- vorce was not what she wanted. She gets along very well at the cabin now. ‘When she wanta to sit down she goes. outside and uses the chopping block. That is how Mr. Sparks of Yreka won his bride. Experientia Docet.

The magis- trate who committed him for trial kindly remarked that he was *‘a dissolute, impi- ous, hypocritical scoundrel.” *“Brethren,” said the Leadyille clergy- man as he breathlessly entered the pulpit twenty minutes late, ‘I know I'm behind time, But'here is my excuse, I had a Mlush royal and Deacon York had four «queens and though he bet Jow I knew he'd put his entive pile in, and T couldn’t bear to break up such a good thing by caliing hin, 8o | stayed and scooped his pile Can you pardon me for the delay?” And the congregation shouted ve,” g three cheers for the pgeacher and then the services were begun, A Chinese wittiess in o Philadelphin court, after taking the oath with o par- ticularly loud kiss of the Bible, was asked if he considered himself bound thereby to tell the truth.© He complacently answered that the Bible was no more to him than his sermon, the lawyer's old white bat, Theonly form of oath that he would respect, he said, was tocut off a chicken's head while repeat” ing certain words in Chinese, A chicken and knite were provided for him by the opposing counsel, but the judge said that, though iaclined to Kermlt the ceremony, he would adjourn the court for one week to consider'the question, The Mubdatine Journal puts this in: *‘One of the most popular young men, by the name of 8—, volunteered yesterday afternoon to ‘help out’ in teaching n class at the Presbyterian Sunday school, He remarked to the class that he could not call the m‘fmlnru by name, as_he was not acquainted with them, when & little eight- year-old broke out, in a voice to be heard afar off, ‘T guess you know me, "eause you come to see my sister every week,”!
