GAMBLING, The Passion Prevalent in Washington Soc Washington Letter in New York Tribune, In no city perhaps, considering its size is the spirit of speculation so rife as in Washiugton. Especially true is this of speculation in asmall way, Among the thousands of Government employes re ceiving on an average from 8500 to £2000 a year, there are very fow, 1 venture to say, who have not at one time or another taken & “flyor” at stocks or dabblod in wheat. The opportunities for do- ing so are many. The temptation to increase their little income by some lucky hitis not always withstood and the victims who are “'bitten” at an early stage of the game do not always benefit by the lesson taught them. The spirit of gambling extends to the army and navy, and even fome of the foreign diplomats, attaches principally, whose way of eking outa living is as much a problem to them perhaps as to others, have caught them ever and arescen at times to make their way into ‘‘bucket shops” and kindred institutions. The latter in some quarters are as plen- tiful as groggeriea in the Fourth ward in New York. Some of them are highly respectable looking concerns. You would suspect them of doing anything but a legitimate banking business. Others carry on their trade—1 might say pro- fession—without the least attempt to conceal it. Flaming signs announce to the pacserby that So and So are ready to make orders for stocks ata margin of 1 per cent. In windows you will see screens which inform the public that private wires offer special tacilities for the transaction of business. viz: the fleecing of the innocents, No wonder then that with such temptations thrown into their way, women and clergymen even walk into meshes out of which they cannot hope to find their way with- out being ruined in reputation or bring- ing disgrace upon themselves and others. ' think Cngress has suceessful- ly put a stop to the ten-per-centers, as they are commonly called, the men that lend money to government clerks upon assignment of their salaries in advance at the rate of 10 per cent a month is to sup- pose something very erroncous. The business of these sharks is in as flourish- ing a condition as ever. It wasonly yes- terday that one of them morgtaged his house, his furniture and_everything up- on which he covld possibly raiso money that 4 OIN G VWV IER ST at 6 per cent, in order to be able to lend it out again at 10 per cent a month. The government, it is true, does not rec- ogmze any more the validity of pay vouchers assigned to others in advanco of the time when they fall due, but the shylocks, apparently, are willing to take the risk, and, so far as I can hear, have no reason to regret their willingness to trust the honesty of their victims, It is necdless to say that most of the money lent out by them find 1ts way into their own pockets within twenty-four hours after having left them, they being for the greater part cither owners of or part- ners in “bucket-shope.” Some very curious skeletons might be PRINCIPAL LINE ST, LGY CUAHA AND LINCOLY T0 DENVER, OR VIA KANSAS CITY AND ATCHISON to DE: Zonnecting in Uy n Depots at Kansas City, Omuha and Denver with through trains for SAN FRANCISCO i W And all points in tl W Connceting in Grand Union Depot at Chicng with through treins for NEW YORK, BOSTON, And all Enstern Cit At Peoria with through trains olis, Cincinnati, Columbus, e South. st.

How many of them, I wonder, manage to keep up the style of living they do no the salary they receive! They were not rich when they entered office. Their wives did not bring them handsome dowries, To suspect their integrity would bo doing tnem a gross injustice. But to speculate a little eh? Trade, may be, upou a superior knowledge of affairs which their official position may give them. 1sit, after all so very strong? Is it, atany rate, considered 8o by many of them? Without wishing to moralize any fur- ther in thisline, I cannot help remark- ing what a horrible thing the official register is. It tells youat once every public man’s income, or, in a majority of cases, very ncarly so. You cannot help expressing some astonishment at how Mr. and Mrs. X., at whose house you dined only the other day, can afford to entertain so handsomely. ~Turning to | pago 16,306, you run down your finger ' | until you come to friend X's name, and and oposite it you find *‘$1200.” Well T declare, you exclaim, how X manages to dress those girls of his is a mistery and, by Jove, there is W.; look here! Heo gets only $2500, and lust weok ho oy, | gave entertainment whichmusnthave cost « | at least-well,Iwouldn’tliketomention the figure. Let's seo what Z. gets. 1 know the Z's pay at least $1200 rent for their house, not to mention the wages they give their big, greasy porter, whom they pass in the presence of their friends as a family servant (has been in the family ever since he was a pickaninny, sir 7. says; played with him when 1 was a boy, on our old plantation; his mother was owned by my father and brought up the whole family, etc )—Yes, 7. gets—here it is—only $3500. How do they manage tolive?! Speculation! Washington is unique, perhaps, in pre senting examples of men broken down in #pirit and fortunes, whose unconirollable aesire to feed at the public crib, makes them willrng to accept any position, how- ever lowly, rather than be kept out of Government employ for any time. Not that they are unable to secure employ- ment elsawhere; on the contrary. their past experience should make their servi- ces valuable in many respects to private individuals, and undoubtedly would do 80 if they could bring themselves to aban- don what they perhaps consider *‘public life.” Iknow of an ex-member of the Wisconsin Legislature, now a doorkeeper and messenger of one of the Senate com- mittees; another, also a doorkeeper, who not long ago was a bank President in Vir- inia and occupied some responsible pub- lic position in ti state; still another, who is the son of an ex-United States Senator, and as such very likely, im- bibed the taste for holding public office, which he now gratife: by ng the posi- tion of a doorkeeper; and I could go on citing an indefinite number of cases to support my proposition, if epace per: ted me tooso.d The Senate and House have presented a deserted appearance this week after 3 o'clock. The explanation is to found in the fact that the races have begun at Ivy City. When the hands of che Senate clock poiuted to 2:45 o'clock you can sce Beck get ready to lock his desk (even a tarifil debate would have mo attraction for him then), get his hat and cane and toddle down to the Baltimore and Ohio depot in a hurry. This is the sign for the ‘“‘sports” of the Senate to depart, which “they do with as much glee as schoolboys when school closes. In the House the departure of the *‘boys” at- tracts less attention. The body is too large. But when “Joe” Blackburn leads the van they generally stop on their way to the depot ata place over the door of which 8 mysterious sign hangs, display- ing the cabalistic words: **First Chance.” When they return the sign reads, *‘Last Chance”—and you may just rest assured they take it, every time. — Suoke Seal of North Carolina Tobacco, OMAHA DALLY BEE--TU OMAHA DAILY BEE--TU List of Letters Remaining in the office at Omaha, June 7, 1884; GENTLEMEN'S LIST, Adams J Boyle M J Bockingham J 2 V-owning W. 1D Darry 8 Beulton N Batard A Burch B Bush C N Babeocx C B Brown C B Berg M Buchecker A 1, Bergesch J ¥ Belmont, Boyd 1, W Buchter S Brayton T R Bowman S Conklin W arter T Cunuingham J T Canley J R Clark'J M Coincellor 1 aniels H Doherty C I Dasia F I Dadisman J 1 Davidson J Duncan G Dummett J W DLillon O Dautrick A g Dooly C Dayton 1 L, Duncan G Finkelstem M Faster H ¥ Gross 1 H Graves W 1§ Gydeson W K Gould W S Gritin D 8 Gillison (i Gestin © 12 H Guisyyse Hughes ' 1, Hutchingon K Halford Helwzol C M Hammond J C Grogory D W Granlich J N Gileson & Buiney Haryud O W Hewett 1 Harlow 1 Hunt C Hochstomer ¢ Hansen J Hughe P I, Jeffers A T Jansed 15 Justus D 1 Johuson J W Johuson J Jos C Johnson M Jackson M Trwin § Kennedy H Koisor M Kyler M Kyral I Kahl H Kinder W Loning K L Looker W A Lumbart C 1 Louis G Ludwig P 11 Miller W H'C Myrtle O 2 Mills G cDonald C McCowan 1, H Mathows P’ H Martin J F MeMiletery J McCluskoy D Murray I’ Mellott M Murray J Matney W MyroJ Rt Myers A A McCrea 8 Majors A Mills J Morrison 8 P Newcomb H R Nelson H 1. ilsson A Neb Silica Manf'g Co Outhwart M C Oroech G Peterson R Pohlman C Patrick D H McDowell ¥ C Noble W L Neison J V Newman H C Orr ' B Okland J Prokish I I Powers Mr Presser T Pation J S Persson B Perry T M Raver (: N Reed C l(m\(: C Rasmusson C Robinson N P Robinson W Rohee A Rice A Risdorph F E Roe P Ri ds 1, Ruotschi K Rice I} Ross A B Snowftler 1 Segerstrom A Shrader 1 Sherman A H Schwamb J Sperlock H Strasser S Steiner 8 Spierling A Sandwich Manf'g Co Schmitt C Smith C F Sutherland E L Smith J A Smoot M B Scandlen M Salerm 3 8 Smith L, Schoomnaker F Sims J Streeter ' H inaon 11 nderland I, A Smith K Sasinam Simpson (¢ Smails C K Smith J I Skinkleo J Stewart W Smith C D Sellers U Tileborg J M “Theatre Dramatic Co Taylor W J Tioty C Tippery $ Todenworth A W Truman A E Turner J W Walters J Weexs A C Wallace R ‘Woodburn J Wassell H Whitcher 12 C Worthing E £ Woods ¥ ‘Wakefield Mr Wolfe G Wallace S R Fulkelstein M Young H LADIES LIST, Arons Miss M Arnold Mrs M Ballivger Mrs J Chinington Mrs L Comody Mrs C Davis Mrs Faulk 5 C Freeburg M Gordon Mra J Gleason Mrs J Hampton Miss M Hall Mrs G Hogan Mrs 1 Hall Mrs B Joslin M Johnson Mrs H Johavhast ¥ J Tsabella King Mrs H Lagerquist Miss M Lockerman Miss 1, M McGonigle Miss M McCraa Mrs M Niclson Miss I Osborne Miss O Olson Miss G Pitts Miss Porter Mrs M Re 1 Ruger Miss 1 Steelo Mrs D IR Shaw Mrs A Throne Miss A Vallance Mies Watows Mics L leer Mrs I' A .

A faint 5 ) idea of the clegance of the trosseau may be formed from che fact that the hand. kerchief alone cost §1.624. Tt was the common remark that the bride was pretty enough to eat; indeed she did eat quite freely as soon as the ceremony was con cluded. Sho was attended as bridosmaias Ly M sses Stella de Courtney and Effie do Swipes, who performod their part in a most admirablo manner. Although conducting themselves so staid and digni fied, ns one of the party expressed it, that oleomargarine would not have melt ed in their mouths, they were, neverthe loss, remarkably genial and pleasant They were attired in beautiful fitting robes, cut out in historic style, one of which appeared a triflo more antiquo than the other. The supper was got up as_woll as got down, in & manner eminently calculated to meet tho wants of the inner man as well as two or three outsiders who chanced to drop in at the opportune moruent, Among the good things were hot coflee, sorambled oggs, sorambled fruit cake, ginger and other schunappes, strawber. ries, rich and poor mince pie, A abundance ot tonguo, Saratoga potatoes, Schencetady ditto, jerked beef, jorked molasses candy, mushrooms and arti- chokes alloy mode, oto. The party ad- journed sine die at 4 o'clock, and by 430 all the gueats had taken their departure, except two or three who had become en gaged in the fascinating game of *‘mixty- six,” the rest of the party having labored under the mistaken idoa that there were ‘“‘no cards,” The friends of tho wedded pair exhibit- od most excellent judgment in selecting wedding presents, articles of substantial use having been gonerally given the pro- ference. As germane to this point may be mentioned a eot of german silverware, the gift of the cousin-german of the bride. There were also a eet of wouden- ware, parlor and kitchen stoves,six cords of second growth hickory wood, a racoipt for a year's rent of a piano, a beautiful and artistic sheet-iron lambrequin, §500 in silver lead stock, 100 horse car tickets, & barrel of pickles, ten gallons of the very best kerosene oil in the market, the form- ula of a certain cure for corns, and many other acceptable gifts. The happy pair took the b o'clock train for Oshkosh, via Peoria. Should they return safely from Oshkosh they will be happy to see their friends wher- ever they can secure a favorable contract for rent. | —— A FATAL MISTAKE, The Defeat of Blaine Predicted—The Nomination Repudiated by Mas sachusctts Reformers, New York ' Evening Post, indepen- dent republican: The nomination at Chicago means tho triumph of the genius which has long been at work for the dis- integration of tho republican party When it came out of the war in control of an overwhelming treasury and vast patronage, nothing could have saved it from the clutches of the jobbing eloment but the stimulus of a new hope or theappearance of a purified opposition. Neither of these things came to the res- cue. That Blaine cannot be elected we regard as certain. The extent of his de- feat will depend largely upon the action of the democrats.

To live prominently or exclusively in this city, as upon some very prominent sireet, and avoid all personal attention to purchasing one's own supplies, is about as dear as to live similarly in Paris or London; but if one compares the place where he resided in those capitals at a moderate rate, with with a relative situation i: New York, he will find the cost hers probably lews.
