IHe lighted s cigar, dropped into a chair at a faro yn'fle and bought $1,000 worth of checks, ‘I'm going to win out the house,” he laughed. Before two hours had passed every gambler in the town was talking about what was Yrobnbly the stiffest gfiht against pub) f history of Chicago. 10,000 0, and- $50,000 is common, Gam- blers pronounce most of it fiction. But Newspaper bere was an actual case of half a dozen | bets of #2500 on the turn of a single card, The limit at this particular house is “1100 on “doubles”—the first three o remaining or ‘‘case” card, The plunger filyad this limit for a few deals and | en demanded a higher one, He yoo ic faro in the gam- | about winnings and losings of | of a denomination—aud 850 on the | given $100 and #200. Again he de- manded a raise, and to satisfy him he was allowed #200 and $400. Finally he broke out impatiently: “ ean’t pike along this way. Take the limit off and give me full swing. The dealer communed with one of the proprietors of the house and he in turn communead with his partner, Tho re- sult of the commuuning was that one of the owners sat in behind the table and called out: The limitis off. Bet 'er high, old man!” ‘The plinger bought 45,000 more of checks, making $6,500 in all he had in front of him and sailed in. His first bot made the experionced gam- blers standing around gasp in astonis ment. o bet #1,000 on the ‘‘seven’ spot and won. He continued to lay 500 o 81,000 til! “‘cases” began to come, and then he jumped to 82,500, Men who were standing around the table and had no financial interest were a8 nervous as the spectators at a horse race. But the littlo plunger and the dealer were cool and tho cards slipped out of the box as swiftly as if the “blue” checks represented only nickels instead of one-hundred dollar notes. For an hour the board of trade man won, until with 816,000 *‘velvet” in front of him his luck turned. The “bank” hit him hard, and in another hour he had lost his $16,000 and $6,000 besides, Then he cailed his companion—a well known board of trade man—and his companion took the chair while the plunger slept. Board of trade man No. 2 won back the §6,000 and the two went to lunch. When they returned the plunger again satin, this time with a$200 and $400limit, and he and his friend lost $7,300 before they quit at daybrenk “The game s the biggest over played here,” said an old timer. “At one time the little fellow had 812,000 on the table, aud the bets were so placed that action must come for $5,000 at overy turn.” £l California, the Land of Discoveries.

By mail R SR T PATTI'S TERMS TOO LOW. F.gures in London Showing What Her Concerts Yicla. A writer in the London World says of Mme. Patti’s terms for singing in con- certs; *'[ have all my life bad a weak- ness for ladies, and ladies have always had the weakness to know what is not their business, so 1 am going to betray a secret of the trade to the lady readers of this paper in order to let them get an insight into affairs diseussed by every- body, although ‘‘eyerybody” knows nothing about what is really the mat- ter. F'rom all sides I hear of the greedi- ness of Mme. Patti, the exorbitant prices she asks, and how she does not care whether people in whose concerts she sings are ruined so long as the re- ceives her money. The fact is this: Mme. Patti received for every concert in the Albert hall £700—an enormous amount, no doubt. ‘*Now, let us see as to the ruin of the people Who engage her. The expenses of the hall are about £100, other artists £200, advertising, etc.,say £150; the whole forms £1,150 to £1,200 costs. The receipts of this year’s first concert were about £1,700, of the second over £1,800, and the third will probably be still larger; that is to say, £500, £600, £700 profit. I know that once in a concert in which she sang the expenses were a little over £1.200 and the receipts £2,143, with £163 taken for programme books. These are figures, not opinions. I have known what is perhaps still more astonishing. One evening the fog was 80 thick that I was retlecting whether I should go to the hall, imagining that Mme. Patti, whom I had to accompany, would not go. I went, however, after all, by the underground railway, and the receipts that evening left over £600 profit. “Let any other singer do this, if he or she can,and nothing will be fairer than that they should demand exactly the same price as Mme. Patti, and only too happy will anybody be to pay, and take the certain profit; but as there is nobody in the whole universe who can fill the Albert hall,and consequently bring anything like the receipts, it should be well understood thap Mme. Patti receives enormous prices because she alone makes enormous profits, This does not prove that there are not other singers of great talent, young, hand- some, fresh voices—of course not. But here stands the: fact undeniable. You engago Mme. Patti and pay her five times the sum the best singer gets, and your receipts will be what no singer on earth cun bring you but Mme. Patti,” e Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup re- duces inflammation while children are teething. 25 ceats a bottle. SRt THE GERMAN SERVANT GIRL. She Wears No Bangs, But She Can Work Like Ox, The German servant girl hasno bangs nor bangles, nor tur-'ined coats, nor four-buttoned kid gloves. She is square- shouldered, heavy featured, and large limbed. She is neither clean, quick nor intelligent, but she can work. She has the strength of an ox and is always willing to use it. Most servant girls in German citiesare peasants, Daughters of the poorer town-bred families usually become fuctory hauds, shop girls, or waitresses., The conscrvative peasants, however, with thewr old prejudices in favor of eyerything feudal, prefer domestic ser- vices for their chllsmn to any employ- ment. Assoon asthe peasant’s daughter is fourteen or fifteen years old she learns how to split wood, hoe notatoes and plant cabbages. She milks the cow before breakfast, hitches her to a lough after bren‘(h\lt, and often turns urrows all the morning under the direction of her father, who, in the meanwhile, smokes a pipe and rests, She mows hay and digs water trenches. During the harvest she carrvies great basketfuls of vegetables from the fields to the barn on her back. When her ounger sister becomes old enough to elp her parents to work the litule farm, however, the eldest daughter loses her grip on her father’s heart. She 1s re- gorded by him as an incumbrance, for nothing is more useless in the eyes of a German peasant than a grown daugh- ter who does not earn her living. Therefore, if no Hans or Fritz wishes her to be his helpmate in raising cab- bage and potatoes, she must go into do- mestic service in the city. Like almost all novices in an ocoupa- tion on the continent, she serves an ap- prenticeship, For several months she receives no wages, nor does she deserve any, for her stupidity is phenomenal, She has never walked on a carpet be- fore, and doesn’t know a napkin from a disheloth, or a coal bucket from a ket- tle. She blacks the herr’'s patent leather shoes and oils his rubber hoots. She puts the table-cloth on the floor and the rug on the table. In fact, she is as strange to must of the furniture and customs 10 a comfortable house as & Persian or an Indian, She loarns slowly aud laboriously, but she never forgets. BONNER'SNEWWORLD BEATER The Great Horae Lover Has Groat Hopes of Sunol GREYHOUND OF THE PACIFIC. The China's Wonderful Trip from Yokohama to the Golden Gate— Huntington and Stanford ~A Versatile Man, Bunol a Rising Sun, SAN FRrANCISCO, Dee. 11.—[Special to Tne I ]—Robert Bonner and Sunol have occupied a large share of public attention during the past fow weeks, To your correspondent the famous horse owner and editor said last evening: ‘Sunol will be left here under Mr. Marvin's care for another year. In fact, that was understood at the time I bought her. She will not go east until about next October, Marvin has done wonders with her, and he will do more. She will be left entirely in his charge, to be trained as he thinks proper. Whether she will beat Maud S. is a question. Sunol now stands third on the list, with Maud S. 2:08%2 and Jay Llye Sse 2:10f ahead of her, But Sunol is merely a baby yet, and it cannot be foretold what she will do. “I can only hope, but I dare not ex- pect to soe my little filly do 2:05. Mar- vin has had her so far, and if there is any man who can get her there he will. She has done a quarter, he tells me, in 80 seconds; that promises such time as I feared I never would live to see. “*There isa thing which is not quite well understood here. When Governor Stanford wrote to me on October 26 about Sunol he knew exactly what to expect of her. He wrote me then, very modestly, that ho believed she would eventually lower Maud S.’s record ‘if any horse ever did.” o said then that he expected her to do 2:10 in her noxt trial. When she did 2.10 he wired me that he was disappointed because of the fraction. Do you see that the governor was not unaware of the value of his filly when I answered him on November 2, stating 1 accepted her at the figure I had ulready offered.” “The price I paid for Sunol?” “*Now I’ll tell you young man. Tam bound on hunor not todivulge the exact figure, but I gave more than $10,000 and less than $50,000; strike your own aver- age.” THE NEW PACIFIC GRAYHOUND. The mnew steamer China, which ar- rived from Yokohama in the phenome- naily fast time of twelve days, twenty hours and fifty-four minutes, thus eclipsing all previous records by nearly eighteen hours 1s regarded as a wonder in marinecircles. This time made by the China is even more commendable to the new steamer for the reason thut throughout her voy- age she encountered unusually heavy seasand head winds, which delayed her several hours. The new steamship China was built by John Elder & Sons, on the. Clyde, and her tonnage is 5,400 tons, consider- ably greater than the City of Peking. She is 400 feet long, 48 feet breadth of beam, and 30 feet depth of hold. She is therefore 43 feet longer than the Pe- king. She has four decks and five water-tight compartments, three of which extend to the spar deck. She has room for 120 first cabin, 80 second cabin, and 1,000 steerage passengérs, although if it were necessary 2,000 pas- sengers could be crowded into the ves- sel. The saloons are fitted out 1n a lux- urious manner, and the finest woods n employed in the finish of the cabin. Every modern convenience is supplied on board. There are numerous bath rooms and lavatories and the vessel is lighted throughout by electricity. At present the Ckina flies the British flag. It is the first of the Paciflc Mail vessols to fly the cross of St. George, and it is thought that the company will order the registry caanged so that she will carry the Hawaiian colors. While shipping men are elated over the re- sult of the China’s trip, there 1s soma regret made that the run was not made by an American built vessel. The record-smashing made of late by the transpacific steamers has been done by British-built steamers. The Cana- dian Pacific company’s steamers beat their time, and now a British-built steamer owned by an American com- pany, beats the fastest time made by the China vessels sailing to Vancouver. Not only is the time made from Yoko- hama by the China the fastest on recora, but the time from Houngkong of twenty-two and a half days is faster than all previous records: FAIRY RAILROAD STORY. A story has been published to the effect that C. P. Huntington recently telegraphed to Senator Stanford asking him whether he ‘felt disposad to re- sign the presidency of the Southern Pacific company,” so as to obviate the necessity of a fourth vice presidency, and to allow each of the second and third viuu([)rusidonu to move up one, Colonel Crocker, when questioned about the matter, asked whether he was expected to give a serious answer or not, ‘‘Senator Stanford said he had not under any circumstances offered to resign, nor has he ever been asked to dos0. There is absolutely no truth in the story, and if possible there is less in the statement that it was ever groposed that 1 should step into Mr. tanford’s place. I would not for a moment expect to be his successor, even if he did resign.” . THE VERSATILE SPIDER. Ike O'Neil Weir, the champion feather weight pugilist who is matched to fight Billy Murphy, the champion of Australia, on December 27, is probably the most accomplished pugilist in the world, He is a first-class jockey, having ridden some of the fastest steople chaso races ever seen in this country, He shoots copper cents from between his wife’s fingers, and plays the most diffi~ cult music with boxing gloves on his hands and a sheet over the keys, Heis an expert swimmer, wearing two gold wedals for life-saving in evidence of the Iuct. He sings character songs and dances jigs, and besides being the champion pugilist of his class is a good all round athlete, The versatility of the Spider, as he is known in the vrofession, furnishes no end of amusemens for those who hap- pen to stop at his training quarters in Suusalito. For the last two weelks while not engaged in running on the road and punching the bag he has devoted his time to writing a play, which will be {;roduoed at the Dexter cottage by local alent some time before the date of his fight. Unlike most play-wrights he is writing his play to fit the personuel of his company. THE ORANGE CROP. Several statements have been circu- lated of late of an overproduction in this year’s orange crop, and a conse- quent decrease 1n prices. These reports are denied. by the secretary of the board of horticulture, uu states that overproduction never cAl occur in Cal- ifornia, owing to the many advantages possessed by the home product. The best oranges grown im; southern Cali- fornia are not ready for market until the frait of Florida and the Mediter- ranean countries has been exhausted. The Florida oranges are also grown under climatic disadvanhtages which are not found in California. Frost is also largely a factor in main- tamning the prices of the California fruit, as that of Florida suffers greatly from it, the orange belt gradually mov- ing south and the product consequently gotting tess. The California orange is vastly superior to all others as ashipper and keeper and outranks the product of other countries in quality and flavor, This fact is demonstrated whea the products of the Mediterranean, Florida and California are brought into compe- tition, that of the latter selling invari- ably at greater prices than its compet- itors. HUNTINGTON'S OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE. The people of California can measure the extent of theirgratitude to the rail- road corporation by C. P. Huntington's language when discussing the Chinese exclusion act, He denounced the peo- vle of California as hoodlume for de- manding protection against the count- less Mongdlian hordes of cheap labor- ers. His offensive langunge was prompted by the fact thatone of the nu- merous branches of the hydra-headed Southern Pacific of Kentucky was suf- fering from a slightly dimimshed in- come. If the ola iime receipts of the O. and O. could be restored the Central Pacific people would cheerfully turn the whole state over to the Chinese. “If Californians seo any cause for gratitude in such conduct,” observes the Chronicle, “‘they are welcome to ghow it, but to us it looks like a case of licking the boot that kicks us.” THENOMENAL RAINFALL. The phenomenal rainfall of this year has completely broken the record. Hitherto it has been possible to match every experience with a previous one, but there is no year sinco the occupa- tion in which so great a rainfall has been noticed o early in the winter as thisyear. The writers who can see a direct connection between 1increased population and rainfall must still ex press themselves cautiously. Theve is no foundation as yet for the belief that California will never more be affiicted with drought, althought there is abun- dant reason to believe that we shall never experience a total failure of crops as we did in 1876 Grave Cause for Anxiety exists when the kidneys lose their activity. Prompt measures should be taken to renew it, otnerwise Bright's disease, diabetes, or some other organic diseasc, i3 to be apbre- hended as a consequence.

The women were a strange contrast to the men in While tke latier were as than most the forme least those under twenty or so—were plump, solidly built, full bosomed crea- tures, and there were at least halfl a dozen in the crowd before us who might fuirly be termed good looking. But the older members of the com- munity, the women especially, almost surpass my powers of descriptiol an idea of their weird uglin 3 companion tersely summed them up s “baked monkey:” but a monkey would at least have had a covering of hair, whereas these dreadful persons had nothing but their very scanty clothing to conceal any partof the leathery in- tegument that was so tightly shrunken over their skeleton bodies and looked 80 hard and dry that you expected to hear the crackle when they moved. Their faces seemed to consist _solely of skin drawn over a skull without a particle of flesh, and looked precisely as if some one had tried to make a mask out of old leather, and. failing, had thrown it down in disgust and stamped onit. Yet they secemed neither de- crepit nor idiotic. The men carried their complement of arms; one old fel- low had givded on the longest and crookedest sword there. He looked like Death with his scythe, A woman, who resembled one of the dried mummies of blacks found in North Queensland, reanimated, was pounding paddy in a wooden mortar, so I concluded that appearances were de- ceptive, and that they were not nearly 80 old as they looked. Indeed, the Malayan races are not long-lived, and really old people are very scarvce, such an instance as the sultan of Brunel, who lived to nearly one hundred, being almost unheard of.
