A SPIRIT BABE.
,,,pp,AGE OF MR.. STILLMAN or MEM
pBls TO MISS koBERTs OF THE
SPIRIT WORLD.

No event Of the season has at.
.racted more attention than the
marriage Of Mr.. &. A. Stillman Of
This world to Miss Alice Roberts of
,he other-the spiritual world. This
ceremony, solemnly performed over
the natural body OF StlIlman and
The materialized fern of Miss Rob.
prts, was, to the pubIic, an entirely
new phase of Spiritualisn.
While the public was painting for
more knowledge on this point, the
Acqianche representative, armed with
= peuoi and a determination to
show the utmost respect for these
srcat mysteries lying SO far beyond
his ken, issued forth TO learn some
thing more Of the great matter of
s,,i-itua-carnal lntermarrlage.
He met one OF the faithful who
was present at the Ceremony. To
,his gentleman our reporter is in
aebtrd for confirmation Of the
story before published.
"You were present, slr2
81 was.
"Where did the ceremony take
place.
cat the residence of Mr.. W atson.
Did you ever see his cabinetI"
The reporter had not.
"Therc sir, is where the wonder
of the matter comes in. 1t is shut
off in a corner by curtain, leaving
about sufficient room for one person
TO turn around comfortably in. The
walls beiiud are Of solid brick ma
sorry. cut of this small space the
,naterialized spirits come, about i
dozen in number.
The bride was to have married
Tom Moore, had she not died, ! be-
lieye; was it Tom Moore, the poet:
We don't know what Tom Moore
she referred to, but she was pretty
enough TO be anyone's bride. She
was the most beautiful thing | ever
saw.
"Had negotiations for the marriage
between the spiri6 bride and Still
man been made beforehand 2"
''Oh, YES, for some timo. Two
or three times before had the prep
arations for the ceremony been
made, tut the bride had not until
this evening acquired sufficient
power To remain cut long enough to
20 through the ceremony. She spoke
only in a whisper, but her voice
grows stronger each time she ap-
pears"
"IVhat SORT Of marriage cerc,
aonv was it?'
1T didn't differ much, | think,
from the ordinary seligioas marriage
ceremony"
Nov, is this marriage to hold in
Che spirit vorld?"
"Oh, certainly she was very
much in earnest about it"
Does it debar Stlllman from
marrying now on earth:
81 think he so understands 1t. l
DO
This gentleman then said that
there was subducd lamplight In
the room at the timc, and that fully
nine materialize& spirits appeared.
The company present was composed
of about a dozen persons, and Mrs.
Miller was the medium On the
same evening this gentleman had a
little child baptized by the spirit of a
deceased Episcopal clergyman, who
came out from the cabinet in his
robes of offico, and. taking the babe
III his arms performed the baptismal
ordinance.
"People who haven't learned the
A Is G of the philosophy OF Spirit.
ualSm, I'm aware, can't understand
and will ridtcuie this, but TO me it is
all matter of knowledge-of fact, y
said the geRtleman.--Aeo2gJ'j' Aoa

Noted Gamblers orNew York

From Yesterdays New York Tribune.
From time to time men from distant
cities. attracted by the inviting field for
their operations presented by New York,
have sought to make this city their home.
Such men were the elegant Pendleton OF
Washington, aid Orlando Moore, who
kept noted gambling house for many
wears in Broadway, one door below the
Chemical Bank Moore tor time was
prosperous; but desire to force his fam
ilv into circle of society closed to them,
IN spite of his wealth and the tamilys
education, led him INTO extravaganza
that proved his run. Another notorious
gambler was Patrick Hesrne, An Irish
man, OF great shrewdness and OF polished
afability of manner. In company with
SCHUYLER Halsep, he established and con-
Quoted gambling house for many years
opposite the Metropo itan Hotel.
Hearne, perhaps was the most interest
ing man Of his class. He had a good
education, and his personal attractions al
lured into his society such men AS the
Liyingstons, the Jameses of Albany, and
the Costers of New York, from whom
he won not less than half a mi lion dol
lars. But he loved play for its own
sake. and was addicted to high living and
dissipation, and extravaganza generally.
He died almost penniless. Halsey passed
oil the stage years ago, leaving OF al I'M
mense amount of ill-gotten gains, only

$4,000. A man named Joseph Hall, orlgi-
nally a house-painter, also tried his for
tune in New York. He was handsome
man, but pompous, over-bearing and
presuming. Having succeeded in gsmb-
ling he invested IN trctting-hOrses, al d
once owned the celebrated trottlng stall
lion, Lantern, afterwsrd purchased by
Robert Bonner Hall was famous tor
his suppers, aud knew how to cater for
his guests better than any other gambler
host in New York A story is told to
show his extravaganza, in affect that,
after Lantern had won an important
race, Hall had silver bucket made for
the horse to drink out of. A few years
ago, worn out and crippled, Hail
was soliciting aims to keep him IRON
starving
John |. CassIdsy, who came from Gin
cinnatI, was another prominent gambler.
He claimed, perhaps with reason, to be
by birth AMI education gentleman.
He was man of fine address, and OF un-
doubted literary ability. For n long
time he wrote letters for The Spirit Of
tie Times, over the signature of Lar
kin" Becoming fascinated with play,
CassIday gambled heavily and continu-
ously. But he was never cheat or a
blackguard He died in poverty, leav-
ing u family, reared in luxury, depend
