A Portable Gambling Den.

Manuel Blasos, commonly called "Old
Blazes," IS a New Mexican gambler
with portable hell on wheels. This is a
car, something like those used by travel
ing photographers, but is as bright and
gay as a circus band-wagon, and is
drawn by six handsome horses. The in
terror contains a faro-table, a roulette
wheel, and other fixtures for gaming.
Manuel has several assistants, and goes
from place to place according to the out
look for profitable business. Thus he is
sure to appear at every large fair within
200 miles of the Mexican border on
either side. A new and prosperous min
ing-camp offers inducements, too, and
lately he established himself close to a
Texas camp-meeting with pecuniary
profit. He has the reputation of run
ming square games, and his party goes
so well armed that they defy robbers.

if Immortality is a splendid but delusive

nate, be not supplemented and perfected

Divinino Rods

In lecture on "Divining Rods" in
Cooper Institute, New York, Saturday
evening, Mr.. r. W. Raymond said:
In ancient times whenever people
could not understand phenomena they
ascribed them to the devil. Knowing
this, the practitioners with the rod in
the middle ages usually made a great
show of piety. They went out at night
naked, and under the influence of GER
tain planet, to cut their forked rods,
which we're then put in bed with baby,
and solemnly christened. When the rod
was used the following formula was
pronounced: In the name of the
Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spir-
it, adjure thee. Augusta Maria Carolina,
pure as the mother of our Lord, how many
fathoms is it to the ore?" And Angus
ia Maria Carolina was expected to dip
as many times as there were fathoms.
There is man in colorado who makes a
good income by indicating gold and sill

An Aunostic on Immortality.

From Senator Ingals ths.I nulogy.J
"Ben Hill has gone to the undiscov-
cred country.
Whether his journey thither was but
one step across an imperceptible from
tier, or whether an interminable ocean,
black, unfuctuating, and voiceless,
stretches between these earthly coasts
and those invisible shores-we do not
know.
Whether on that August morning
after death he saw a more glorious
sun rise with unimaginable splendor
above a celestial horizon, or whether his
apathetic and unconscious ashes still
sleep in cold obstruction and insensible
oblivion-we do not know.
"Whether his strong and subtle ener-
gies found instant exercise in another
forum, whether his dexterous and disci-
plined faculties are now contending in a
higher senate than ours for supremacy,
or whether his powers were dissipated

Brazilian Homes and Habits.

ICorres of the San Francisco Chronicle.l
The dwellings, are usually made OF
saplings or canes crossed and plastered
with mud. The floors and windows are
never washed. Brooms, used only In
extreme instances, are made of a sapling
tied around with few green branches.
Scrubbing brushes, mops, busters and
whitewash, paint and varnish are I'M
known. The windows have no sash
weight, but are held up when opened by
nail or piece of iron of some sort.
The doors are made of heavy wood,
hacked out with AIDES and secured by
locks of medieval pattern, having keys as
ponderous as that of the Bastile at Mt.
Vernon; the floors have no covering.
the bath-tub is tin basin; the towel is
made of sheeting; soap is luxury.
Portugal is hundred steps behind
America, but step In advance of Africa.
Everybody knows how to ride horse
here, but nobody can push saw or
drive plane. Such a thing as board
sawed "true is unknown. There are
numerous little saw-mills throughout
the country where boards are sawed by
means of water power, but the boards
are never of equal thickness throughout.
ranging from half an inch to two inches.
Nor are they of equal width, varying
from to Is inches. Nor are the edges
cut straight; nor are they even planed or
smoothed by machinery. Consequently
all the woodwork about the house is of
the most wretched description, and
painting, whitewashing or cleaning is
almost impracticable. l have seen few
sewing machines throughout the coun-
try. They are all moved by hand. /
have seen three pianos in the course of
500 miles of travel. They were all
cracked. / have seen houses that pos
sessed Illuminating lamps. They were
so few that they we're distinguished from
the rest. For instance, In this town of
400 inhabitants there are known to be
three lamps. Senior P. has one, Senior
B. has another, and the Baroness of r.
has third. People go about at night
through the dark of streets with lighted
candle in their hand. A piece of paper
encloses the candle to keep off the wind.
Although but 100 miles from railway
and $50 miles from Rio there are bui
mails week, and when one arrives the
postmaster, even In daytime, lets off a
rocket to notify the town. To send q
letter to Rio requires five days; to get
an answer requires eleven. To fill an
order consumes a month. In conse.
quence, dirt, laziness and procrastina-
ton are the prevailing characteristics.
Nothing can be done, nothing is ever
proposed to be done; it is always
" AMANDA" (to-morrow). When to-
morrow comes it is the same thing over
| again.

Pennsylvania have frevently been located
by the same means. Recently, Mr.. Peck,
OF Denver, who claimed to have located
millions of dollars worth of mines, was
taken into an Office in San Francisco in
which were safe and some furniture.
He was then bllndfolded and asked to
devine where there was gold. He de-
clared that there was none in the room,
and when shown the safe full of it, and a
quantity under the table, he coolly said
that the rod had been over attracted by
the larger amount of gold in the Nevada
bank on the next block"
Mr.. Raymond concluded that while a
very sensitive woman might detect the
presence of water underground, there is
no virtue in the rod. The dipping is
either the result of fraud, or of expecta-
ton OF the mind, which finds involun-
tary expression through the muscles.

Thackeray as a PhIlanthropist.

Thackeray was one day saunterin g
away from the Garrick Club, then close
to Covent Garden, and strolling through
Cranbourne Alley stopped opposite a
pieshop around which several urchins Of
both sex es were cOngregated, looking
with wolfish eyes upon some pork pies
which the baker had just placed in the
window for salo. Thackeray hada great
kindness for children and dumb animals,
IN fact for any creature that could not
hit back if injured, so his soul was
touched by the hungry looking children.
Calling the tallest, slip of girl some
eleven or twelve years old, he gave her
half crown, telling her to buy five six
penny pies, take one for herself and give
the others to her companions. Presently
he saw the girl with the five pork-pies,
In her hand and the others In her apron,
making off at her best pace. Overtaking
her he reproached her with taking al
and not giving her friends any, where
upon the girl screamed out: "Let me
alone, you nasty, dirty old beast, or I'll
call policeman! The novelist, it is
needless to say, dropped this Flower Of
st. Giles like as he said ga hot pota.
to-, and never dabbled in practical phi.
lanthrophy again. He took a cynical
pleasure IN relating the story as an in.
stance of early depravity. All who know
anything about juvenile vice in London
will understand that there is nothing
wonderful In the incident, except that the
girl spent all the money in pies instead
Of pocketing, if she had pocket, the
silver,
