His Strange Garaar as Told by One of the Mourners. The Lfe and Death of the Most Hxpert of Three-Oard Monte Men. New York Sun, There was a strange funeral from the undertaher’s shop 82 Greenwich street yesterday afternoon, No min- ister, nv weeping relatives, no flowers, no tears wore to bs seen, Only a coaple of dozen rough men went into thie shop, singly or in couples, and took a look at the corpse. It was the body of a man of 30, with a high fore- head, prominent nose and the expres- sion of a man who had seen life in some of its roughest phascs. The un- dertaker said: There is no use in pub- lishing his name. His lasv request was that it ahould be kept a secret, because he did not wish his poor old mother to know of it, Sheis 70 years old and living in a comfortable home down east, which he provided for her. He said it would not do any good to let her know he was dead, ‘‘He was tho slickest-handed man that ever tossed a pasteboard,” said one of the by-standers. ‘‘He went by the name of Jordau, but his real name was Bruce. He waswell known among the sporting fraternity as the original ‘Slim Jim, king of the three- card-wmonte men.’ His real name was James Br. ce, and he was a farmer boy away down in Maine up to 1868, One day he went to a county fair and saw aman tossing the three cards. He thought he could pick out the little joker. Tt looked 8o easy to make $5 by saying ‘that’s the card,” when he saw the corner turned, He bet and lost, and bet and lost as many a green- horn has done before and since. In trying to get $26 out of the three- oard-monte man, on what he thought a sure thing, he lost $25. Then he made up his mind it %ould bs a good game'to learn. Heo learned it so well tlfmt he made cver $400,000,000 out of it, ‘‘Jim was five feet eleven inches tall, weighed one hundred and fifty pounds, had a smooth face, and looked like & natural verdant, or ‘sucker.’ To look at him when he was made up for businees you would think him a coun- try lout, who needed to be taken care of. He vsed to wear a suit of dunga- rees,’ or brown country garments that mado him look like a farmer’s man in store clothes, When he got on those dungarees, with a straw hat, big boots, with his pantaloons tucked in and a hunk of gingerbread, he was ready to skin the sharpest countryman that ever tried to rob a monte man by pre- tending to guess a card when he thought he had it sure. “Jim, dressed in this rig, would stumble into an express train ata country station, sprawl cver the floor; spill a fow out of a bag of $20 gold pieces, swoar that he had been robbsd of a part of the money he had got for selliog his farm, and in & clumsy woy bring out the cards to show how the gamblers got the best of him. His cappers or confidants would gether about, and soon Jim would have a first oclasa game under way, The greenhorns would be eure to bite, Jim would tarn up the corner of the ace in such & clumsy way and let them win a few times to get them excited, Then the simpletons would bet all they had and Jim would ecoop it. “‘For years Jim has been known at races, fairs and on the principal rail. roads, He worked them ail as long as ho could, He was very successful on the Union Pacific and Central Pa. cific railroads, and was the best *sure- thing gambler’ in America. He was the equal of the celebrated ‘Canads ill, the three-card monte man who died in Philadelphia recently, *Jim offered the Union Pacific Railroad company $10,000 for per- miesion to ply his game on their road in 1870, and agreed that he would not fleece m(ybudy but deacons and clorgy- men, o uedd to say that it was a perfectly fair thing to awindle the pious people who were trying to cheat others by betting on what they thought was & sure thing, “Jim was well known in Utah, Cal- ifornia, Nevada, and, in fact, thruugh out the west. Often the railroad companies would pat detestives alter him to keep him off the trains, Lat- terly he has worked the trains be- tween New York and Washington, He was not without sympathy. If he won from a man who could afford to lose he would not care how wmuch he took away from him. Bat, if . | Hotel, Mat Gooderson’s old place, he would give hnck pnn of the money with the good advics, ‘Don’t mblc don’t even bet that you are alive, “Jim was registered at the Par James Jordan, and by that name he was mostly known. A week ago last Saturday night he was out with some . | frisnda protty well on to Sunday morn. ing. He got to seofilivg and fooling, all in fun, with Mat Oarroll. Carroll got into a souflls with another man and shot at him, hitting Jim by mistake. The ball lodged in the_groin, and he was taken to Bellevue Hospital, where he died Some of the bo, 38 visite d him in the hospital, and did what they oould for him, They raised $150 10 bury him deom\tly, and somo of thom sat up with the body Iast night. Who were thvyl Well, perhaps thero is no nsoe saying who they were, ns the man wes crooked, But, though ho was a crooked man, he hnd 8 good heart, and many is the dollar he took from those who could afford to lose it and gave to some pogg emigraat without a dollar in the world, The Resurrection ol'lmxnrnl Was a miraculous operation. Mo one thinks of raising the dead thes o times, though some desperately cl e to death's door have heen completely restored by Burnock Broon BITTERS to geuuine and lasting health, Sleeping With Serpenta Prof, Bell, the Smithsonian institu tion’s agent, shipped his colleciion of snakes w the north two woeks ago, and already has his muscum fall agein, It 18 surprising how rapidly they become domenticated under his treatment. During tho recent cold snap somo of them that he turned loose in his room at night climbed up the bed posts and coiled thomselves up in his blankets.” He felt them huut- ing for cozy epots about his legs and knew that he ought to get up and provide them with some looee straw, but a sleepy man in & warm bed of a cold night is not over-obliging, and the professor snored on musically, as is his custom. The reptiles crowded upon one another, quarreled, fought a little, hisaed, but the professor did not budge; only now and then he would wake siightly and ory softly, *‘Whist, boys; be easy, boys.' At last & {:Ig coachwhip uuake found an opening near the edgoe of the blankets and slowly glided in. There was a gentle waving up and dewn of the bed-clothes as the big olny bank serpent moved about getting himself comfortable, when suddenly he alap- ped about two-thirds of his frigid length against the warm loss of the professor. The professor made a vio- lent romark. He sat up in bed, gath- ered a handful of snakes in ench hand, depositing them carofully on the floor; then, throwing back the bed-clothes, he administered a kick that sent the coachwhip flying through the dark to the other end of the room, encoun- tering the lamp in its aerial flight, and knocking from its bracket on the wall the fragile skull of an ancient ¥lortda mound builder “‘Freezs and be hanged!” oxclaimed the irate professor. “I'll share my bed with you, but you ehan’t drive me out,” He drew the blaukets over him. A few moments later several pairs of little red eyes moved up the bed-posts on either side and soon snake herder and snakes, in one couch, were lost in peaceful sleep. —— “Don't Hurry, G-nthm.n.

Swine Breeders' Journal. Pure air helps to make pure blood, which 1 the course of nature builds up healthful bodies. Out-of-door pigs would not show so well at the fairs, und would probably be passed over by judges and people who have been taught to admire only fat and helpless things which get the prizes, Such pigsare well adapted to fill lard kegs, whereas the standard of perfection should be a pig which will make the most ham with the least waste of fat, the longest and deopest eides, with the most lean meat; it should have bene enough to stand up and help itself to food and carry with it the ovidence of Lealth ‘and natural de- velopment in all of its pazts, Pigs which run in a range of pusture have good appotites—the fresh air and ex- ercise gives them this—hence they will est a great variety of food and much coarser than when confined in pens, Nothing need go to waste on a farm for need of a market. They will consume all the refuse fruit, root, pumpkins, and all kinds of vegetables, which will make them grow. By ex- tending the root patch, and planting the fodder corn thicker, 8o that nub- bine will form on it, by putting in & aweet variety, the number uf pizs may be increased in proportion, The pig pasture will be ready the next year and ten times the ad- ue to the farmer than if the pigs ate confined in olose pens, for, a8 pigs are usually managed on the farm, but Jittlo manure is cver made from them.

Western Agriculturist, Early maturity by usiog the im- proved breeds of stock, together with judicious feeding according to the latest improved methods, enables us to market our stock earlior. As young small beef, says A. B. Allen, in Live Stock Juurnul, is what the English butchers will be oftcnest tn demand by their customers in the future, from 15 to 24 months of age, of com- pact form, fine bones and full of well. marbled, juicy, tender meat. To meet this" requirement fully breeders will see that it is not neces- sary to look for the largest eizes among their arrivals for the future breeding, but to select those which are closely put together in all their parts, and especially fine in all their points, Even the Dovon and Gallo- | way are not too emall for this new purpose, and the nicer selections from thought the victim could not spare it, the ehorthorn, Hereford and Angus, n By | this, we snppose, they mean animals | our | not too large. Such as are naturally of the great- ost size may be more profitably kept on growing till 3, or even 4 yoars old, and then sell at top prices to make beef for salting and barreling, Thus the market for both fresh and ealt beef will bo properly supplied, and all requirements suited, Thero is considerablo advantage realized in turning coff animals as young ns possible, after gotting a good growth, as it riquires less capital in conducting the busivess of breeding aud foeding, and the risks of acoidents, diseases, and sll other things are much lessenod.
