Too MANY KENos. - Nothing IN .kes d
cessively win two pots Such lnck Is CON
sidered an insult to the rest Of the crowd. A
few nights ago q man strelled into Winston
keno room and selecting a card went Of int
| a corner and won the pot on the seventh ball.
The players looked at the stranger and cursed
| the luck of man who would ruthlessly reach
out for their coin on the seventh ball. The
game was ''all set" again and presently the
voice of the new player rang like clario"
! over the room as he shouted Keno" The
rest Of the players INDUCED in an under cur
rent of profanity and the game went on with
"E-leven for starter" Presently the
| stranger called out "keno" like Hobart cast
ing the vote Of the Eureka delegation for
Sabin on the Goth ballot. The claims of the
man having been verified by the revenue col
lector who goes the rounds the game proceed
ed and the stranger took in four more kenoes
in succession.
"Can this be all luck !" said several of an
inquisitive turn.
They went up and examined his card and
the discovery was soon made that he had du-
plicaues of the numbers which he pasted in
row as fast as called and then laid on the
buttons where they would do the most good
He rose to CO. He Just edged toward the
door as if he wanted more sun and then he &C.
CELEBRATED his pace. The air become filled
with flying stools. Each player flung a stool
and the man just cleared the doorway as the
passage became j4mmed with furniture.
Those who could pursue found the path thus
strangely obstructed aud the man was around
the block in minute. The man who rolls
the machine raked in his per cent, took his
place again and soon the monotonous call Of
the numbers was the only sound heard. The
man who escaped with the plumber is young
yet and full of hope and perseverance, and the
day will come when he will be rich and re
spected, while men of no resources will toll
along the highway of life as poor at the Close
as at the start. We can't all rake in seven |
keno pots successfully, many of us fail to con.
meet on one, but there is hardly man In Car |

back counties, which it usually takes
week to hear from, came to the
front with sonorous majorities for
reconciliation which were given with
the positiveness of official reports. 1t
was noticeable, furthermore, that all
the majorities were in round num-
bers, such as $50, 1900, 1000, 1900,
etc., while the Whole Democratic ma.
jority in the State was put down at
10000. 1t was impossible that ac-
curate returns could haye been re-

that the vote cast had no connection

Connecticut Republicans have acted
wisely in putting into the field a
ticketef such extraordinary strength
that its election is foregone conclu[
sion. The subordination of indi-
vidual ambition to the good of the
party Was so complete that when

majority of six votes over his prin-
cipal competitor, Gen. Bulkeley, of
Hartford, the latter's friends Joined IN
nominating Bigelow by acclamation.
although he was still good ways off
from a majority of the whole, and
then General Bulkeley accepted the
second place on the ticket-that of
lieutenant governor. Thus Hartford
and New Haven, the rival political
centers, are both represented on the
ticket by their most popular men.

THE COVENANT WITH ABRAM.
GENERAL STATEMENT.


The character of Abram has been fully tes-
ted by experience of life in all its phases and
the time has now come for a full, direct and
specific revelation of the divine purposes
concerning himself and his family. The AL
mighty speaks to him for the first time by an
audible voice, at night, in words of encour-
agement and promise. ". l) The patriarch's
faith is so full, and his communion with God
is SO complete, that he ventures to ask how
the promise of seed can be fulfilled to one
in his aged and lonely condition. ". 2 3.)
He is then hidden to walk forth from his
tent, and behold the stars beaming in the
Oriental heavens. and hears the promise that
So many shall be the number OF his descend
ants: ". 4, 81 Though the promise was far
beyond the range of human expectation in
the face ofnatGral laws, and as yet unverified
by any token. the patriarch receives 1t in
simple, undoubting faith, which t}od reeog-
ni2es as the ground of acceptance. (vI ~
He is now commanded to prepare for a cove

strange sleep, and a solemn awe over Abrams

future of his family through the centuries

children. ". 49,
