Terrible Game OF Cards-.A HR-
man Life At stake.

A game of cards in which human life
was at stake was played on the 9Th OF
September at the Ritter Hotel, Heidei-
burg, by four youne students, one on
whom, Silfred Meyer, was an American
from Chicago. 1tappears that the four
men had formerly been intimate friends,
and they met, it seems, on the above day,
at the Swami Tavern, where they drank a
good deal, and finally began to quarrel -
One of them, Count Ottendorf, called
Meyer acowsrdly Jew, whereupon the
latter promptly challenged him. Often
dorf accepted the challenge Immediately
Meyer, in tone of great excitement,pro
posed that all four should retire to the
Ritter Hotel and there play a game OF
"sixtv-six." The loser should shoot him
self with pistol This proposal wa;
accepted, and the students repaired to the
hotel. They ordered wine and cards tc
he brought up to private room, and Lu
deken, one Of the four, procured two
loaded pistols from neighboring armo
rer. The fourth student dealt the cards
/ and Oltendorf and Meyer seated them
selves, pistol lying by the side OF each
The first few minutes the game remained
almost even But then Meyer obtained
single advantage, and Ottendorf,seein9
that he was lost, suddenly jumped upan'
exclaiming, s'Adieu, my friends" seize'
his pistol, and shot himself through tn
ii hit temple. He fell corpse to tn
floor, while his companions stood as

sy-Among the manifold results,which
must necessarily follow the Democratic
victories this fall, there is one which will
especially operate to strengthen the
Democratic party.
The yearly, and oftentimes overwhelm
ing, defeat of the party, had so badly
discouraged many sound Democrats
that, when solicited to attend the polls
their answer was, invariably, so, it's nc
use to vote; we'll be beaten anyhow,
and they staid at home.
The cause of this depression has beer
entirely removed. The recent elections
demonstrate the fact that the Democratic
party can succeed, and this is all that il
required to insure a larger and more re
liable Democratic votein the future.
