SURPRISED BY A SUDDEN SHOWE Thirsty Paving Blocks Float Away oa the Torrent to Indian Creek. The cedar block paving wss about as pro- foundly surprised at the sudden dash of rain yesterday moruing as the pe ple f the city, who had nearly forgotten what the sound of rain was like. When thg water came tearing down Harrison street the blocks along the entire east side of the street rose up about & foot and danced In surprised delight on the top of the flocd, and many of them accompanied the flood on its way down Indian creek. The long hot and dry spell had evaporated the last drop of mois- ture from the half rotten blocks, leaving them loose in their beds. When the w came they Moated like corks. T flowed beneath them snd cut out the san and gravel tamping, and damaged fully half the paving to such an extent that it will have to be relaid. Several members of the council and the street commissioner looked over the wreck yesterday, and pat men to work constructing a defense at the upper end of the street to thrcw the current cn the opposite side In e:se of another rain storm. The damage will amount to several hundred dollars, just how much cannot be ascertained until* the loosened blocks are taken up. The work will be commenced this morn'ng.

During my bohemian days it oceurred that [ sat in an uptown cafe with the sort of a man whom this incident will reveal, ys a writer in the New York Press. A wild-looking, unkempt chap, gaunt, shabby, with a four days' growth of beard, rushed In, looked wildly around and th hurricd over to my companion and took him aside. As a result of their conversation the man with me turned to me and said in a whisper: “I am going to ask you to loan me $2, but don't you do it.” Then he asked me and I refused the loan, and the gaunt man went unsteadily out. “Queer duck, that,'" sald the man at the table with me; “always getting into scrapes, faking out opera ompanies and leaving them stranded. The last scrape he got into was in Montreal. He telegraplied home: "I am in jail on a technicality, but don't tell motker” That struck me as very fun ‘Don’t tell mother.” But he was always an ill-balanced ass, anyway." Now, that thoughtfulness of his mother in the young man who wanted to borrow $2 struck me as a rather deserving trait, and I left my companion abruptly and followed him out. I saw enough of him to convince mo that he was not a man of business, and not even an admirable character. However, I loaned hini the $2. Since then he has been considerably in the public view in many ups and downs. But he is now coming home from the other side as the impresario of a lot of continental stars. | h him well Like Mark Twain, 1 love a man who never shakes his mother. This one’s name is Robert Grau. T e Triek of the Cigar T is a little trick in th which some dealers will confess good-naturedly If you ask them about it, says the New York Tribune. The dealers display a card in a box announcing that the clgs is sold for 20 c nts, $19.50 a hundred The extremely innocent person would sup- pose that a dealer could not expect to sell many of those clgars at wholesale when a buyer of 100 would save only one-half a cent on each cigar. Well, the dealer doesn't expect to 8-l them by wholesale, and he doesn't sell them, but he knows that it just ickles a smoker to death to think that he is getting a single cigar for practically what it would cost him if he bought a ship load of them. by de. clgar bus There iness to e The Deep, Decp Sen. It is a remarkable fact that the deepest parts of the sea are in all cas<s very near the land. The deepest sounding known, 4,666 fathoms, or 27,930 feet, was obtained 110 miles from the Kurile islands; the next deepest, 4,661 fathoms, was found seventy miles north of Porto Rico. With a few ex- ceptions like these the depth of the ocean as far as now known does not reach 4,000 fathoms, or four sea miles. The North Pa- cific has a mean depth of 2,500 fathoms, the South Pacific of 2,400, the Indian ocean of 2,000 and the Atlantie, by far the best in- vestigated ocean, has & mean depth of 2,200 fathoms, that business is picking up. with capital,” sald L.

Bargains are being offered now that inside qf thirty days could not be, Values are bound to go up a little later in the season, and the wise ones are buying now and they are the ones that will reap the harvest Inside of the next year." As for houses to rent, there are no desir- able ones In the city, though there is a good demand. Rents are higher here than they are in Omaha. A house that would rent for $15 in Omaha brings $20 and $25 a month here. But little building is going on, but as the population increases it makes the dcmand for houses greater, and this is the principal reason that rents remain so high.” *Busine Gibson, s men Magic City Gossip, The free silver democrats will organize a club some night this week.

THE PRETENTIOU3 DRUMMER. He 1s Taken Down a Peg or Twa by the Humorist l'eck. Record tells a characteristic The Chicago story of George W. Beek. When his fame as the author of the bad-boy experiences was at its heignt, and while he was ac- tually rolling in riches, Peck made a trip to Californfa, partly for rest and partly to the country of which he had heard so much. A notoriously poor dresser, he was at this particular time very shabbily clad, and in his coarse, ill-fitting| garments you would hardly have recognizéd 'the man everybody was talking about, and' the man, too, whose check was good for a eool hundred thousand, One day, crossing’thel plains, Peck was curled up in a seat in the smoking car,when i lon was attrheted to & group of drummers across thej aisle. The train boy had just gone through the car vending his literature and the drummers were discussing the book entitled “Peck’s Bad Boy.” One of the party, a particularly noisy fellow, boasted of a personal acquaintance with the author of the book—yes, he knew Peck intimately, and forthwith he preceeded to regale his friends with elabora'e stories of his experi- ences with the Wisconsin humorist, From his point of vantage across the way Peck listened In silent surprise to the preposterous Inventions of the fellow. and his amazement deepened fnto horror and chagrin when the garrulous drummer, encouraged by the in- terested countenances of his hearers, pursued his discourse 10 the extent of narrating, with scrupulous attention to detail, the incidents of an alleged spree which "‘me an’ Peck” once enjoyed together. You can fancy how wroth poor Peck became when he heard himself pictured as the veriest sot and libertine, for it there are virtues upon which he prides himselt they are his temperance and his morality. . Having heard himself dragged by this superb llar through the boozing dens d low resorts of Milwaukee, Brother Peck ally arose, gathered himself together angd “One day they met at the race track and Emerson remarked: ‘Say, boys, we couldn't get insured, but I've got a better game than that. Let's put up a thousand apiece, and the one who lives the longest takes the pot.’ ““Why, you poor fool!’ remarked Winni- peg, who was at that time the worst case of all, ‘it's a dead certain will for me. **‘Oh, you don't say so,’ put in Pratt. ‘Why, one of your lungs is missing now, and T don't think youw'll live a month.’ ““After an hour of that sort of chaffing the four men agreed to put up the money. It was given to Billy Elliot, a bookmaker, and he deposited it in a New York bank. It was deposited In such a way that any one of a dozen bookr:akers could draw it out at any time. ‘This was done so as to be sure that the last man would bz able to get the money without any trouble “At this time poor Winnipeg was an awful sight, and the people thought he would die any minute. His cheeks were pale and sunken, his eyes shone like balls of fire, he coughed incessantly, and he could scarcely totter along, he was so weak. Yet he would come to the track every day, and when:ver Le'd run across one of the other three he'd guy him about the money they had put up. “You fellows will be dead and gone before they put me in bed,' he'd say. Those who knew him used to smile pityingly on him whenever he made this boas 'wo ,months after the money had been sited Emerson’s physicians told him that he had to go away or he'd die in a week. So Billy took his money and went to Texas, where he bought a ranch and tried to set- tle down. In six months he was dead. Early in 1887 Sheridan died, and this left only Pratt and Winnipeg, who was verily a living corpse, to contest for the money. Pratt got worse and worse, and his condi- tion was scon as bad as his friend's. These two used to totter around the betting ring, and when they were not betting would tell each other hcw bad they looked. “Jack and Billy have gone,’ said Winnipeg one day, and you're next, Johnny. That coin's mine.’ ‘You'll be dead in a week and I'll collect that $4,000, Pratt replied, and both laughed. “The next week Pratt lost his every dollar in an attempt to make enough 1 leave his wife independent when he died. The week after he was too weak to get up one morning, and after being confined to his bed a couple of days he died, leaving his wife penniless. The very day he died the mcney was drawn from the bank by Elliot and given to Winnipeg. ‘I knew I'd win it,' said the latter. ‘I knew I'd out- live them, and now I can't die too soon to suit myselt. My living for the past six months has been a mere matter of pride, anyway." “Winnipeg had lost all his money in the same deal as Pratt, but he had no need for the $4,000, for three days later he died Just before he breathed his last he drew the $4,000 he had won from beneath his pillow, and with trembling hand passed it over to Elliot, who sat at his bedside. ‘Give that to Johnny's w.dow,’' he said. ‘I haven't got a relative left on earth, and I don't reckon it'll ever do me any good.' - Seven Years Without a Birthday. A Scottish clergyman, who died thirty years ago, Mr. Lelshman of Kinross, used to tell that he once lived seven years without & birthday. The statement puzzied most who heard it. They could see that if he had been born on the 29th of February he would have no birthday except in a leap year, But leap year comnes once In four years, and this ac- counts for & gap of three years only. Thelr first thought would, therefore, naturally be that the old man, who, in faci, was fond of a harmless jest, wes somehow jesting about the seven. There was, however, no joke or trick in the assertion. At the present time there can be very few, It there are any, who have this tale to tell of themselves, for one who can tell it must have been born on the 29th day of February at least ninety-eight years ago. But a sim- flar line of missing dates Is now soon to return; and, indeed, there are, no doubt, some readers who will have only one birth- day to celebrate for nearly twenty years to come. The solution of the puzzle Is to be found in the fact, which does not appear to be widely known, that the year 1800 was not a leap year, and 1900 will not be.
