Three Card Monte.
tFrom the Sacramento Reeord.l


A Trustworthy correspondent sends us
the following account OF three-card
monte playing upon tho cars: At Bat
tie Mountain I was a spectator OF rob
berry in the line Of three-card monte.
The train remains at that place thirty
minutes for dinner; while there a COM
pany Of passengers were edited by a
simple looking fellow with q mining
"wamus" on and three cards in hand.
He seemed to be q good deal drunk, and
told an amusing story about his old
dad" who he said was a farmer in
"Arkansaw." He continued TO shuttle
the three cards awkardly, telling OF a
trick he saw played on q fellow. andhow
il was played on himself, and, further,
that he meant to play II on some fellow
the first chance. One OF the cards bore
a picture OF an eagle, and he declared
that no fellow could turn up that
Eagle Bird" Turning away from
where he had laid down the cards, a fell
low passenger Of ours turned up q cor
ner OF the eagle at n sharp angle and
Strengthened 1t out, leaving a plainly
perceptibls crease. The tipsy fellow
failed to notice the cheat, but turning
around resumed the cards, and shufied
Thorn very slowly and stupidity through
his clumsy fingers, offering to bet any
amount that no fellow could pick up the
Eagle Bird from the back. Ono OF the
passengers in our car. a sober. staid and
honest fellow from Ohio, who could see
the crease In the corner OF the card M
plain m any ono Of us. embraced the OPP
p~ortunity Of fleeing the drunken chap
out Of whatever money he might have.
Looking half ashmed Of himself, no
asked "Tipsy" how much money he
had. "Tipsy" proposed to cover his
pile. Ohio planked ups5O0. and Tpsy
becoming perceptibly sober. covered II
with a like amount. The groups sur-
rounding them manifested the highest
excitement, and many protested against
seeing n man sc drunk robbed on n
"dead thing;" but the 0hian stood his
ground, declaring that it was Tipsy's
own proposition. The cards were spread
out, the fatal and ~telltalo crease showing
so plainly that any Of us could have
picked up the Eagle Bird. "Now which
Is iti said Tipsy. This" answered
Ohio, pointing to the creased card with
an avaricious leer. Turn him right
up" (hic) said Tipsy, "and II its him
the moneys yourn." Ohio turned the
card confidently, when 10! II was notthe
Bird. The crease had been a snare and
delusion; the Eagle Bird had fovn,

A MAS-MoSxKY's ApvEsruRE.-How
sad II is to have ones bright anticipa-
ton quenched in night, was discovered
by q young Englishman the other even
ing. He determined TO attend q masked
ball, and with genial discrimination
chose to do II in the character OF q mon.
key. The night was fine though cold,
and he was Of a frugal mind; so. instead
Of taking q carriage. no set out to walk
in costume from his hotel to the ball,
two blocks distant. Cheerfully walking
along in the costume Of his forefathers,
he was suddenly deserted by two i'm
mense dogs, which. not able calmly to
endure the sight Of q monster OF so
frightful n mien, Immediately bounced
after him. The poor young man scam.
pered. and with great presence Of mind
frantically climbed q high board fence,
and there ON the sharp edge Of the same,
in the cool night air, he reposed for two
hours, while the big dogs beneath sat
serenading him and the moon, and the
dance vent gayly on in that ballroom
80 near and yet so far.

RaIlsteass the Six, Of oraas...

One Of the most extraordinary phe-
nomena ever witnessed In this country
took place on the Fourth Of July, in
Bergen county, New Jersey. About
5:l5 p. NJ. in the village Of westwood,
during the celebration Of tho day. asud-
den darkness came over the village, and
before the alarmed inhabitants could
seek shelter. a violent storm Of hail
stones descended upon the heads OF the
crowd. Hailstones two inches and O
half in diameter, and As hard and heavy
Is cobble-stones, came down ina furious
shower. Hens and chickens were killed
In large numbers, and cows and horses
were stunned. The frightened pop
ulation ran in every direction, seeking
shelter in sheds and beneath trees, and
in every available spot. Fortunately,
the majority escaped without injury. A
young lady named Miss Bogart was,
however, struck on the hand by one OF
the hailstones. and her wrist and arm
were rightly lacerated. At the Ridge
wood House, in the village, an enor-
nous amount OF damage was done. Not
q single pane Of glass was left in the
building, and. incredible as 1t may APP
pear, tho hailstones actually broke
through the slate roof as II they had
been cannon balls. The storm covered
an area OF about twenty-five miles, eI-
tending from Spring Valley to Kinder
Kaimaick. The storm prevailed at its
utmost at the stations Of Pascack and
Ridgewood. which are on the Hacken-
sack branch OF the Erie Railroad, and
the depots were completely riddled, as
though a battle had been fought in the
neighborhood. As late az 0 o'clock yes.
terday morning hailstones were picked
up ut the station the sizo Of walnuts.
Through the section Of the country
where the storm ragged q most perfect
scene Of desolation can be witnessed.
Trees are stripped Of fruit, grain fields
OF rye and corn laid low. and the hope
Of the hay this Fall Is utterly gone. The
sensation created in this vicinity was. as
might be expected. tremendous. In one
sewing-machino factory, just above
Ridgexood. over 1000 panes OF glass
were broken and the slate roof damaged.
The shower continued Just thirty min
utes. and in this short space OF time
damage to the amount Of many thousand
dollars was done. The hail-stones, on
an average, were the size Of turkey eggs,
and OF every conceivable shape, with
sharp edges that cut like knives. Dur
ing the continuation Of the shower the
thunder and lightning were i~ncessant,
and with the screaming OF men, women
and children, and the shrieks Of fright
ened cattle, the scene was truly awful.
