A well known army officer on furlough was interviewed by a New York Sun re- porter in regard to tho prevalence of card playing in the army. ' The major said: I don’t mind admitting to you that this card-playing for money is a vory bad thing for the army, It's against army reg\Suiuns, and contrary to good disci pline, and it plays the very devilwith the youngsters; but, bless your soul, you might as well try to cashiera blizzard or court-martial a flood on the Missouri a8 to abolish cards in the army. Human nature is human nature, even when it re- orts for duty at Fort Sill or Fort Ar- ‘)ucklc, and the days out there, especial- ly the stormy ones, are apt to stretch out as long as an Indian buck's idea of his treaty rights.

I noticed, though, that the other stranger did not indulge in like folly, neither showing his hand nor calling. “The next deal the captain received four queens and asmall card. There was lively betting before the draw, and then he drew a king. I saw the king as he picked it up.

Then the storm that had been brewing broke; the dealer made no disguise of consulting with his moneyed partner, and the captain no longer tried to look as if he were bluffing. Out of their combined funds the strangers man- aged to make a raise of a thousand dol- lars, “Their cards lay on the table in front of each, tho dealer’s arm lying across the pack as he looked triumphantly at his advers The strangers had evidently gauged the captain’s resources to a fine point. As the train stopped I leaned over him and whispered a word of warn- ing, while the ncmn{» across the table scowled as if ho would like to pick a quar- rel with me for interfering. “‘Lay down such a hand as that? Non- sense,’ was all the satisfaction I got from the captain, but he held up his cards for my insj on, and T assure you, sir, on my honor'as a gentleman and an officer, that, in place of the stray king I had seen him draw, was an ace—an ace of dia- monds, sir—flanking his four queens. Of course the hand was not intrinsically worth more than before, but the wherea- bouts of that floating king had become an important factor, and when the cap- tain asked me te loan him money, I de- termined to see the thing out, and emp- tied my pockets as eagerly as he did. Un- fortunately, I had but 8700, and, all told, we could only muster 8800. ‘* ‘Not enough, 1""? for the row he had evidently sought. for the balance? asked the captain. ‘¢ ‘Not much; we ain't pawnbrokers. ad, when the game 1s done.” fourth-rate shar self-control of an angry man, money boldly, call for that sum ame.’ ‘¢ “The h—1 it is! such child's game, travel.' *‘Just here a benevolent, patriarch across the ai watched the game with a pious-lookin who h ing, in a sing-song nasal tone: s g money to thy salvation.” him, to teach the leer the gambler turned his cards face up with one hand, while with the other he reached to draw in the money—reached only half way, though, for his" jaw drop- and his face grew white with rage and astonishment as he saw his own cards facing him.

It happened that Dubois had what was known as Post 4, which waa ut tho extromily of the grounds, where there was little danger of being roported for neglect of duty. The fair Fanny remained until ‘‘taps” and all lights were out. It was a bright moon- light night, and her way to the hotel lay along the gravel walk past Dubois’ post. I looked the other way, sir, at once, and left him to pay the penalty of his sweat- board swindle.” ““And the professor,” inquired the ro- porter, “‘did he touch the cards?” *‘He must have done so, though I did not see him, and I thought I was watch- ing the game closely all the time. I sup- pose, though, I was watching my adver- sary's eye and not his weapon, an excel- lent rule in broadsword practice, if not in poker.” ‘‘And you say that you dare not play poker?” “‘Yes, sir, dare not,” and the major's oyes flashed. ‘‘You must know, sir, that 1 lost my head, and might have lost my commission for that game of poker. The money I put into that game was not my own. I had 8700 which had been handed to me just as 1 left home to give to one of my men, and, I give you my word as an officer and a gentlemen, Idropped that money on the table just as if it was mine. That was lesson enough for me. A man who doesn’t stop to think whether money belongs to him or not had better leave the army or leave gambling.” *‘And you think that Paymaster Was- won may have been careloss rather than criminal in his gambling transaction?” ‘No, sir, I think nothing of the sort, sir. A man who will gamble with gov- ernment funds,manufacture false returns, cook his pay accounts, and then pretend he has been robbed, while his accounts show him to be a thief, sir, may have lost his head at last, but he lost his honor be- fore, if he ever had any, and is unfit for the society of gentlemen and officers.

Arrantic Crry, July 24.—Secretary Lincoln, his daughters Mary and Jessie, his son Abraham, Dr. Muhlenberg, of Philadelphia, and Mr. W. E.
