CHURCH GOING.

Rev. Prof. r. G. Hitchcock, of New
York, in recent sermon, spoke in sub
stance as follows, in reference to the
causes of neglect of public worship:
A report reaches us from New Eng
land, where thirty or forty years ago
every farmer hitched up his team and
took his family to worship on the Lord :
day, that the horse sheds are all rotten
and not required for use, and well-to-do
farmers lounge around instead of going
to church. And so it is i'll different
sense in the great cities.
People who go to church nowadays
dress so well-like Indians going to Il
pow-wow, in all the glory of paint and
fcathers-that those who can't afford to
dress will remain at home. Then, again.
skepticism and rumors of it are in the
air. undoubtedly the battle raging be-
tween science and revelation is great
drawback to the attendance of the
masses at worship. We are now, as it
were, on the banks of Newfoundland,
through heavy fog. Let us
keep our steamers head stralgh., and we
will come out all right on the other size.

YOU ever saw. lie used to set aside just
50 much money for this little fun. If he
was in luck he'd play ahead, and some
times cleared stake, but generally he
didn't turn up well, and when so much
was gone he'd push his chair back from
the table and say quietly, in always the
same words:-Ze appropriation for Eat is
all exhausted" Then. if he didn't feel
tired, lie looked ON for while before
going home, He never went over his
limit on the appropriation. The fellows
connected with the Russian legation then
used to come around nearly every day,
some Of them playing big. If they
didn't have the cash it made 10 differ
ence, for they were just as good as wheat.
The bank kept regular account with
them by the month, and when their
sinews of war came around they'd clear
the slate. But Lord! l don't believe
any of those good old fellows are in the
country any more. Just appears like a
pestilence or hurricane had come and
swept the whole crowd into the grave.
In the old days there was money in the
game, and it paid to dine and wine your
patrons. When game used to clear
upwards of 100000 in season, we
could afford to be generous and give
away the lunch. / can remember one
year when we got away during the sea-
son with 1900 baskets of champagne.
Yes, of course, it cost good deal less
than now, but other values were in pro-
portion. We never thought Of asking a
gentleman what he'd have to drink when
he looked thirsty: We just wrung the
neck off a bottle, and that was the end
of it. Champagne then was the only
drink. But nowadays there isn't Gus
toner who comes to tie rooms who don't
eat up his head and drink up his jaws
three times over in twenty-four hours
Why, would you believe it, even the
old Summer resorts don't care any more
for the game. | went down this Sum
mer to White Sulphur just to see if [
couldn't find some of the old Southern
blood. We opened out. One day the
bank took s34; then didn't do a cents
worth of business for several days, until
some youngsters dropped in and We
cleared about $50. That sickened me.
and l packed up. l thought you know,
if there was any game left i'll the old
stock it would grow up in the White
Sulphur, but it is all changed; the crowds
there are different; getting too general.
too prOmiscuous, and too poor. The
men sit around on the veranda. take the
girls driving and buy ball tickets for
thcm-all such soft sport as that but
they've quit risking stakes on a turn like
the old boys. 1t make me feel sick look
ing round that place to think how
changed everything is. But | must go.
So long.

GAMBLING IN WASHINGTON.
"reminiscences of the Golden Age When
Solid Old Statesman Fought the Tiger.

An "Old Gambler" talks rs follows in
the Washington Post: In old times l
don't believe there were more than half
a dozen members we didn't know well in
business way, but l swear now as 4
gentleman that not more than four men,
beers of the last Congress ever came to
our rooms. They got together on short
cards in their room ut the hotel and play
ed on a twenty-five cent ante and s. limit,
and if a man lost so in the course of
night he goes out next day and puts Grape

on turn now thinks his reputation for
gambler is established, and he begins to
talk about us fellows that play. If we
can t do better than that we'll have to
turn in and eat each other up.
Now, in old times we thought nothing
of having a thousand OF two up on a turn.
There was old Humphrey Marshall. He
was prince. never saw an amateur in
my experience of forty years who would
put down as much cold money out of his
hands as Marshall. Some fellows. you
know, are queer about cards. There
was the other Marshall. lie was differ
ent from Humphrey that way. He laid
himself out on piling his stack of chips
up to the ceiling. But Humphrey would
come in and pull the cold cash out of his
clothes, and put it all down on turn
He made lots of money, lived like
lord, and never seemed to be short
Hold up. Yes, he was short once, that's
y fact. 1t was about the time that he
came from Chill, where he was American
Minister. He came into the rooms one
to the house, and lie was going to give
her money to build it with, right off that
table, and, by the Lord, he did. He
walked OFF with 81, 400 on three turns.
and next day, began work on his house.
He played just like one of us-cool as ice
all the time.
One Of the grandest old men at the
business was Thad Stevens. Thad.
played a pretty game, not very big, but
scientific; and then, too, he was regular
about it. Never came across any one
who had bigger soul of honor about
him than Thad. used to love him like
brother. lie always played blue chips,
never got excited at all, but took more
solid comfort out of it than most any one
ever saw. Poor old Thad, | remem-
