a Cute Celestial.

In Butte, where Cinnamon play faro
a GOOD deal, d mlld-mannered heather
eld into q faro game, and after losing q
few dollars, pulled out 2 little package
OF gold dust and laid it on the ace. The
ace lost, and the dealer, picking mp the
package, untolded it and weighed out
the dust, which wa $50 worth. HeWas
about to Castillo paper aside when the
Celestial motioned to him, and asked
that it might be given back, as IT nad
some washing a%ccounts on it. The pa
per was returned, and the next night he
was there again; betting $50 IN gold dust
as before. He put his package carefully
on the ace and won. The dealer handed
out $50, and the Chinaman shook his
head.
Whats the matter, John7o
"you payee allies I bet-one hundred
and fifty dollars.o
The dealer laughed contemptuo'sly,
| but tho heather, unrolling the package,
| showed a hundred dollar bill laid i'll be-
| tween the double piece Of paper which
! contained tie dust.
The dealer looked very cheap but the
| Chinanan never moved 3 muscle. He
acted az fit was d regular thing to keep
D hundred dollargreenback folded Up IN
his gold dust packages.
PAY it, said the lockout nan, he's
got rs dead
The Same bill was put il the paper
the night before, but the dealer had
handed it back, thinkingit . Wash-blil.
But, Of course, this wasn't the China
mans fault.-N9K Lake tribune.

to the former, and it spring her cut OF
bed and stands her on the floor at any
hour for which it is set. It remains
turned up on edge, % she can't get, back
again, at least on her side of the bed;
and she won't come back on his side,
for she's too ALFRED mad to come, near

reduction Of the ration to the lowest pos

This Conductor and the Teaderfeet.

"At 1922 answered the conductor.
'Can't you stop somewhere and let
me get a cracker?"
mot very well, sir, There are no OPP
portunities between her and JimtoWn.'
Finding himself treated in such a gen.
tlemanly manner, the tourist turned
loose and cursed the road from St. Paul
to GIendive creek, and after finishing
his dinner he took in the Duluth branch
and wound up with the officers and
trainmen, c%onsigning the whole BUSH
ness to bitterness and wrath eternal.
The conductor made every effort TO pae-
ify him, but his exertions only s%tiInuiaf-
ed the volume Of abuse until the train
stopped at Bismarck.
"Can I see you a moment?f asked the
conductor, taking the tourist by the eli
bow and leading him to the quadrangle

BEST BAKING POWDER.
Interesting Tests Made by the Govern
ment Chemist.

DIR. Edward G.. Love, the present
ANALYTICAL Chemist Of the Government,
has recently made some interesting ex-
periments as to the comparative value OF
baking powders. DIR. Loves tests were
made to determine what brands are the
most economical to use, and as their
capacity lies in their leavening power,
tests were directed solely to ascertain
the available gas of each powder. DR..

The Railroad Cases.

In tho Police Court to-day Colonel Totten
called Judge Snells attention to the charge OF
obstructing Maryland avenue southwest and
maintaining a nuisance which is pending
against tho Baltimore Il Potomac Railroad.
Mr.. Tottcn said that he was not prepared to
proceed to-day, and would ask n continuance
on behalf of the defense for ten days. Tho
District made no objection, and tho case was
continued. Judge Smell said that he had once
decided the same case some years ago, and
that unless there were new points involved he
would suggest that an examination be waived,
facts admitted and the case certified to the
Court in Banc for a decision OF the law. He
had held previously that while the railroad
and the distractions were undoubtedly q
nuisance to those living in the immediate
vicinity, and were not complained OF without
good cause, tho evil could not be remediod
through the medium of the courts. He had
held in his previous decision that whom Con.
gress granted the charter to the company, and
gave tho railroad the right of way, they under
stood the obstruction, noise, etc, that was a
natural consequence, and contemplated them
when the bill was passed. He could not over
throw or deny what Congress had granted, and,
therefore, unless somo new phase of the case
was presented, he would be obliged to dismiss
the case, as he had done on the previous occa.

The Garfield Hospital.

Tho board OF directors OF the Garfield Me.
mortal Hospital held meeting last night at
the "wirt House," on Seventeenth street, to
receive reports from tho various committees
appointed TO consider tho business AFFAIRS at.
tending their project, tho most important mat.
ter TO be reported upon being tho selection OF
a,,t site Tor the proposed hospital; Justice ,
mittoo on sito reported that OF the
various sites offered 20 them they con.
sldered tho Columbia University property the
most suitable. This property, consisting
OF the old university buildings and surround.
ing grounds, sixty and a.half acros, was of
fered to them for 100000. After a compre.
hensiye discussion of the report the impress
sion prevailed that unless arrangements could
be made by which, part OF tho price being
paid down, the balance could stand for q long
term Of years Mt fair interest, they would not
have enough money to pay for II; and the
matter was reforred back to tho committee,
with the recommendation that they ascer-
tain tho easiest terms at which the property
possible.
Reports wore received from tho various
other committees and placed on 1le. The
committee on legislation recommended that
application bo made to Congress for u moro
liberal charter. The finance committee re-
ported that the property donated to tho hos
pital by tho directors Of the Soldiers and
Sailors Orphans Home had been appraised at
$4,000, and that therc had been about
$4,000 collected, besides probably $1,000
communication was received from tho sec-
rotary OF tho German legation, stating that
there were parties at Berlin who would like to
contribute TO the hospital fund, provided they
might bo allowed TO name one OF the wards,
and wanted 10 know what amount OF money
would be sufIlcient TO secure that privilege.
Tho matter was referred to q committee.
A letter was read from Colonel Corbin, OF the
Garfield Monument Fair Commission, Offering
tho cooperation OF that body with the hospital
board; and resolutions were passed by the
board expressing the same sentiment with re.
gard to the fair commission.

AbheY,a New Tenor.

Theodore Brooksben, Mr.. Abbey's now tonor,
owes his present position TO Christine Nilsson.
When last at Stockholm the prima donna was
somewhat annoyed by the assiduous attention
OF q number OF young men, and among them
was Brooksben. ono evening she was sere-
naded, and she could not fail to be struck by
above the rest. Sending for the singer, she
discovered that this tenor was none other than
her young admirer. He was the son OF the
Governor OF the Castle, and, against the
wishes OF his father, who wished him to entor
the navy, determined to devote himself to
music. Mime. Nilsson was so attracted by his
voice and enthusiasm that, taking him under
her patronage, she placed him with one OF the
best masters In Paris,
