A SLIGHT Observation-Disclosures
short-card sports of the check guerilla
stripe located themselves in the rear
room of the Magnolia Saloon last even
ing to have dog-eat-dOg' game OF
poker. After a time dispute arose aa
to whether any gentleman playing could
hold seven cards, when Hoyle says in
his rules on legitimate gambling, that nc
player is entitled to but five. The sport
holding the seven-card hand saw that he
was caught, and to get out OF it made 9
bluff" with six-shooter and bowie
knife, which was promptly " called F." by
the other party, who disarmed him OF
his knife and quickly raked in the pot,
and fled through the back door, leaving
the scven-card sport standing alone,
without his precious bowie-knie, and,
as he says, robbed O. Of 800. No
blood was shed.

"WRusTLEn OR" RUsTLxk How
should it be, allowing the expression nd
Missile at all? Is the origin of this
bit Of slang to be found in the perverted
use of rustic. or in u corrupted prOnun-
citation of wrestle ? The sports. who
claim for themselves the credit of giving
birth to the word, hold the former view.
In yesterdays APPEAL We had occasion
to designate An energetic worker as q
:. wrustler," for which we have been
called to task by . pathological sport.
We hold to our notion Notwithstanding;
for "rustle" does not soon to US to con-
vey the idea of the action meant to be
expressed; and body rustling-a leaf
for example, is merely the subject of an
action, in which it can exercise no voli-
ton. .Wrustle, if taken in the sense
of wrestle, however, appears to fully
supply the lack of some word IN our
tongue to convey the idea Of peculiar
sort Of activity displayed by class OF
men who work themselves out of diff
culties and make for themselves n living
business in spite Of great disadvantages.
But be this as it may. the words "wrus-
tie or rustic - wrustler' or rus
tier" do certainly embody a meaning
and spirit which no other words in our
language can convey; and as such they
are sure, ultimately, to cast off the
strange brand of quotation marks and
become legitimate English. Snch has
been the universal history OF the develop
ment and growth of lang'ase. The
term mob" was shockinSly vulgar
when the people first used it.

A CARTOON was abroad, yesterday,
showing off the two champions of the
Gambling bill! whose war-cry resounded
until their pet measure went under:
LET the tiger be chained, or drive
him back to his native jungles.' One
Of these word-warriors is represented AS
retiring with his chain under his arm,
while the paw of the grinning Ben
gal y rests jauntily upon the seat OF his
pants. The other champion is losing no
time to get ont of the company of the
man who first fooled with the tiger, and
now feels the breath Of the monster hot
upon his check.

How Hans Got Even.

Once on a time there lived jovial
Dutchman, whose name was Hans Won
Shrimpetifel. He had wife. He had
little grocery, where beer and such
personal property were sold. He gave
credit to parcel Of day customers, and
kept his book with piece of white
chalk on the head board ofthe bedsteaa.
One day Mrs. Shrimpetifel, during
neat fit, took upon herself to clean the
house and things. So she did, and she
cleaned the head boad, and with soap
aud water settled the old mans accounts
by wiping away every chalk mark.
Pretty soon, before long, the old =en-
der of things came into his house aud
saw what ruin his frau had wrought.
Then he said:
"Mein Gott, Fran Shrimpeti6el, What
for you make a ruined man Of me2 I
guess not? You make wipe away all
dem names and figures what I owe them
feller's what's goinL to pay bsfore they
get ready, and loose mores zWie hrnd-
red dollars!"
His frau left the room in fear and
disgust. When she returned he had
recovered the head-board with chalk
marks. Then she said:
"Hans, you have make them all right,
don't it?"
well, mein tearer frau, I make the
figures all right, but put downsome
peter names as dem old fellers vot you
wiped out, ven you rubbed de head beard
off de names" ~

many years ago, at o camp meeting, that
Brother Higgins, good man but
passiouatelY fond Of dogs, came in one,
day accompanied by > black and tan
hound. Somebody asked him to address
the congregation, aud he mounted the
stand for the purpose. while his dog sat
down upon his launches Immediately In
front, looking at his master. In the
midst of the discourse, which entertain
ed us much, another dog came up, and
after few social whiffs at Brother Zig
gins dog, began to examine the hind
leg of she latter with his teeth, apparent
ly for the purpose Of ascertaining if it
was tender. An animated contest en-
sued, and one ofthe congregation camefos
ward for the purpose of separating the
animals. His efforts were not wholly
successful. He would snatch at the leg
of Higgins dog, but before his hand got
there the yellow dog would be on that
side, and would probably take an in
cidental and cursory bite at the deacoa's
hand. Brother Higgins paused IN his
discourse aud watched the deacon. Then
he exclaimed, "spit in his eye, Brother
Thompson, spit in the hounds eye r'
Brother Thompson did, and the fight
ended. "But Ijust want to say" con
tinued Mr.. Higgins, "that outside Of the
sanctuary that dog of mine can eat up

tors for four generations, without turn

to be common among the few mills now
In operation, and in one Instance profit
OF fifty per cent has been obtained. The

vantages of Southern mills over those of
the North, arising from the facts that
they use the cotton fresh from the field
before its staple has been subjected to the
pressure of baling, that the cost of bag
gins and hopping and transportation is
saved and that the development of the
new coal field of the South will make
'uel cheap and so reduce the outlay for
motive power. These strong points and
IT thoughtful and sensible Southerners
can be brought to see that tho use of

of their own hard labor are the real pr,.

bliitation must come, the next census

for travelling afoot is "riding on shank's
mares" Now these circumlocutions
have an air of sighting the feet as means

have ridden when he had walked. It
