This gentleman went to New Yorkfrom
the Pacific Slope a few years ago, with
the avowed intention Of cleaning OUT
Wall street, but was not very successful
in this undertaking; in fact, Wall street
got rather the better of him. In the big
Western Union deal, when over 100, 900
shares of stock were purchased, Gould
and Keene withdrew with spoils to the
amount of 500, 900. Gould, however,
got the money and Keene had to pocket
his wrath. Then came the Atlantic and
Pacific pool when Keene and Garrison
bought more stock than they could car.
ry, and Garrison sold u Gould had
been selling all the time they were pur.
chasing. This time Russell Sage cam
in winner to the amount of 5000, 900,
principally at Gould's expense. Keene,
however, had not unloaded in the trans
action, and came out ahead. In the
spring of 1873, Gould again went West
Pacific at the time, and nearly all of il
borrowed money. Keene got up a big
scheme then. 1t was to make a dash on
the market and send prices down with
a run. Gould returned and found things
in a fearful condition. He unloaded
10000 shares of stock, and but for Sage
coming to his assistance, would have
been compelled to leave Wall street.
One of Keene's operations was getting
into a deal On Union Pacific at 55 and
selling at 95, making S40o, 900. He is
regarded as one of the richest operators
in New York.
Keene is about forty-five years of age,
shrewd, ambitious and bold. While not
uniformly successful he has always man.
aged to make his gains more than
offset his losses. He is the owner Of
Foxhall, and his winnings on the turf
during the last season in England and
France were very large.

Turbulent Smith,

A nickname hat attaches itself to I
person sticks either by fitness or by con-
tract. Turbulent Smith was the
name which some Connecticut Yankees
gave to a neighbor, q little old mani
known for his meekness, and for being
married to a vigorous woman, who kept
him stirred up by her domestic energy:
She had been seriously sick, and q
neighbor in passing stopped. and adj
dressing Mr.. Smith, who was splitting
wood in the door-yard, Asked
"How is Mrs. Smith, this morninepi'
"Oh, Mrs. Smith! She's dead; she's
dead, sir. Won't you come in and see
Fearing the husband might take &c
amiss If he refused, the neighbor went
in. Mr.. Smith led the way with the air
of a person who had something to show,
and was safe in doing it. Entering the
parlor, he threw back the sheet from the
silent face Of his dead wife and said,
Thar Shelf sirp' Then after looking
long and earnestly at the body, he add,

1t appears to be quite well established
that ants and a few other insects have
the highly organized faculty of com
municating their ideas to n another.
The researches of modern observers,
such as Lubbock and McCook, have
confirmed the belief in such a power.
DR.. Franklyn shared the belief, sand
tested the matter in an interesting ex-
pertinent. He placed a small jar con-
tanning a little treacle in a closet, where
a number of ants soon collected to
prey upon its contents. When all was
eaten the doctor cleared the jar of the
ants, and putting some fresh treacle in
it, suspended it by a string from a nail
in the ceiling. A single ant remained
in the jar, which ate until satisfied, and
then sought to find its way out. 1t was
for some time perplexed, but finally
climbed the string to the ceiling, and
escaped down the wall. 1t had been
gone but a short time when a large
swarm of ants locked into the closet,
climbed up the wall to the ceiling, and
then descended by the string into the
jar, where they remained until the ire
acle was devoured, and then departed
by the string. 1t is hardly possible that
this should have taken place had not
the first ant made some communication
to the others.

An Actress, Ambition.

Miss Sarah Jewett, the actress, wa,
recently asked whether she did not tire
of playing the same roles. She said:
"Wel, it depends a great deal upon
how well suited they are to me. In The
Bankers Daughter for instance, having
cried three hundred times in as many
evenings about nothing, l felt a little
wearied of it, but even after a play has
been running a long time, there is al
ways an interest in watching its effect
upon the audience and in the effort to
preserve oneself from sinking into
mechanical acting. But 1 know no
greater satisfaction than in mastering
IA role which l do not like, for if 1 sue
coed 1 feel as if 1 had gained a victory
over my prejudices, and if the public
approve of me in the part, it really
strengthens my power of acting by
doing well what is not to my taste.n

I said to her: "Ive brought 1t, Margaret

The Montgomery, Cal, argus protests
against the Dissertation of the old Car
mel mission, nearthat city, by the vandal
known as the tourists. 1t says: "Visitors
dig up portions of the tiled floor, tear
down the altar, and break off chips from
the walls to carry away as relics. They
would pack off the cross itself If they
could get it."

BIathers. lite Turner d Co.


| To the Editors of the Appeal:
As Mr.. Reichman, at the adjourned meet
ing OF Shaw's followers, at the Greenlaw
Operahouse, Saturday night, endeavored TO
| show that / have done Injustice to the Ger
NAM, please allow me little space in your
paper for reference to Mr. Reichman. He says
| there are eight hundred German votes, and
| that they are solid for the Operahouse ticket.
| If there are 30 many, and they are unable TO
present better man ADLER politician than
| Henry Reichman as their spokesman, | say
! God save the Germans. His political predi-
lections have been OF the lowest order and
he has generally herded with the lowest of
Radical nlalignants- / doubt whether even
the Republican Germans consider him a fit
associate. His moral oh iracter will not bear
uncoyering in the columns OF the APPEAL.
For particulars apply to former neighbors in
South Memphis. His effort to place the
APPEAL in an attitude of hostility 10 the
Germans simply because il admitted my COM
muncation, was the low trick of dirty
demsgogue. The prominence in this move
meHt of Reichman, the Infamous and Theo-
dore Krekel, who figured in the vile article
of Southern DEMOCRAT" is calculated to
drive from the combustion some of the best
Germans in the city, and when the vote
comes it is likely to be but little larger iEan
that usually given by the Germans to Re
publican tickets.
By the Way-has Blatherskite Turner do |
mated the portion of his salary which he so |
soIemnly promised to the widows and Or /
phans? His admiring friends have been |
waiting and watching" for an acknowledge
ment of a munihcsnt donation to the deserV-
ing class who were to be so generously re-
membered. But the acknowledgment has not
come, while the grand jury has made known
the fact that Mr.. Blatherskite Turner has
drawn money that did not belong to him
But he thought he ought TO
have it. Well, many a man has gone to
the penitentiary for taking money that he
thought he ought TO have. Such
ignorance on the part of the law officer of the
Criminal Court is itself highly criminal
Even after the "irregularity" was made
known, did he make good the deficit?
Hardly. He said, practically, keep it out
Of salary vet to be earned" Wanting so
little pay, in order that the "deaT people"
might not be taxed for oficeholders, he
should have knoga what he was entitled to.
Turner's constant efforts Co array the laborer
against the capitalist is unworthy OF his tai
,nts, and his attempt to belittle the APPEAL.
ZONES too close on the heels of the disgrace
al affair in which he is reported to have had
lis head combed by a chair in the hands of
well-known gambler. His assertion that
here was only one good road in Memphis,
md that leading to the Tennessee depot con-
aimed about as much truth as his promises
o the widows and orphans. He knew there

An antique curiosity in the form of wine
glass was shown a friend of the APPEAL yes
tsrday. 1t is about six and half inches in
hight, the hase two inches in diameter, with
a columna- stem th-ce-eighths Of an incb in
thickness, surnounted by : beli-sil@ged cup
which will contain perhaps iiaIf a gill OF
wine or other iuid-the base, stem and cup
being perfectly round and plain, with the
exception that apparently inelosed in the
steB. ia a gpiral thread of glass of uniform
color with the reSt o. tie utensil. What con-
stitutes the interest attaching to shis little
glass is the fact that it is one-perhaps the
only sprvivor-of a dozen brought from
England by William Penn when he came
over to found the colony of Pennsylvania.
The immortal Quaker presented the glasses
to some of his more intimate frienas aEd iol-
lowers previous to his return TO the land of
his birth, and thus they became scattered.
The one of which the APPEAL speaks was
given to the maternal great-great grand
father of its present possassoT, end has been
family heirloom for generations.
