1.-TWO PAIRS OF JAOKS.u
What Henry Wattsrson Did When he Became
Pirate King.
| Chicago Tribune. !

The young comedian, Nat Good.
win, was telling the other night OF
II little poker party isto which be
dropped where the silent and sat
urnine Shed Shook and the gallant
and intellectual Henry Watterson
were doing the heavy business.
Watterson had lately heard the
opera of "Pirates of Penzance, ~
and fallen in love all over again
with It's melody; particularly was
he pleased with the pirates song,
and ever and anon he broke forth
and warbled, II am a pirate kingu
or he burst out and whistled bar
or SO, as he held his hand closely
to his critical eye. Poker, as sew
eral Chicagoans know, is not a
conversational game; but Mr.
Watterson was in luck. and he
varied his musical outbreaks by an
occasional "Reminiscences. Nat
cheertul!y played in the
amount he thought he could
contribute to the evenings amuse-
ment, left the table, and as u look.
eI-on began to eDjey himself. Just
then Tony Hart and young man
named Billy Barry-Ethiopian de.
lineator and variety performer
happened in. Barry was unac-
quainted with the person of Mr..
Watterson, and probably never
heard of the Courier. Journal. Wat.
tersOn had just picked up his cards,
passed them under his eye, whis-
tied q bar of his favOrite song, when
he casually remarked:
1.-THE last time l played poker
was with Grantn
II was with Grant, the old man
said" recited Barry-"I 'spose the
General?n
81 said the General-Gsneral
Grant," responded Watterson loft
lily.
"Oh, hear him!" Barry address,
ed Hart. "Just get onto that
Grant! 'spose Roscoe held flush
as usual, eb? Oh, play de klards 7"
Mr.. Watterson looked horrifi ed
at the low Interruption, but re.
lapsed into his melody and INFORM
Ell the party in A minor that he
was IA pirate kiug.o
AT this juncture Tony Hart
found that he held u pair of kings
and pair of aces, and began bet
ting
Watterson softly whistled. and
passed his nose over his cards.
III have no reason that I can soc
to refrain from seeing YOU and CO.
ing you fifty better. Il am a pi-
rate kiDg.'u
Tony inspected his hand agsin
with such good results that the
stakes were raised. But this time
the other players were ont. Wat
terson and Tony had got Up to $500
"fhe pirate kingn was coming
with a piccolo precision from the
editor's puckered lips; his head
was on one side like u magp pie, and
that gentle, soft expression so often
detected in the Courier-Jourmal, sat
on the editorial face as Tony Called:
"What have you got?"
1.-Two pair" answered Waiter
son.
"So've I-can't be beat either.p
II am u pirate king,n sang the
editor. as he laid down two pairs
all jacks-and raked in the money.
81 am a pirate king"
ppm paralyzed if you n'int,"
groaned Tony, as the stakes disap.
peared, and Nat Goodwin came
away satisfied that if there are any
pirate kings in the poker trade,
Henry Watterson takes the little
crown.
