The difficulty Of selecting site for
the erection Of the Garfield monu-
ment in Washington, is increased, so
the gossips say, by the indisposition
of property owners to have the mon
ument near them. The truth is that
sensible people have come to the con
clusion that vast amount of post
mortem gush has been INDUCED in
about Garfield, and sensation Of dis
gust and nausea has followed the
reaction. The memory Of Garfield is
not what it was Immediately after his
death, and when a few years have
passed away, the late President will
be remembered as the man he was;
by no means II saint, and far from the
paragon Of intellect, patriotism, and
virture, that sympathy for his suffer
iugs endowed him with. When the
impartial historian comes to paint MIR
Garfield, he will "nothing extenuate
or set down aught in malice" but por,
tray him as he was. He will receive
credit for good ability, and IL certain
amount of good nature, but will be
pronounced weak, vascillating anc
inGm Of purpose, utterly lacking ii
the stern, heroic qualities which are
never absent in the make up Of a tru-
ly great man. The pitilul farce OF
Keeping a guard of soldiers about his
! grave, still goes ON, however, to the
belittlement of the American people
and the derision of Republican theo
ries.-Ex.

A Pehs6E}as GAME.

The Kansas City Journal tells of
game of poker played recently in that
city between Ma or Drwmm, and a
Texan; The Journal says the Texan
had no money but plenty Of cattle
and an immense desire to play poker
with the Major. The latter Is known
around the stocll-yard for his natural
resources, and he swept away the
seemingly insurmountabIe difficulty
by proposing a game OF one-steer
ante, two steers to come in and no
limit, They played On that basis.
Maj. Drumm dealt and the gentleman
from Texas anted one steer. Both
came in and the came opened with
four steers on the table. Major
Drumm drew two tens and caught an
unexpected full, while the gentleman
from Texas struck bobtailed snag
and passed out. The third was a jack
poland it took three deals to open it.
The gentleman from Texas finally
drew two jacks and opened the pot
with a fine breeding bull which count
ed six. Maj Drumm cogered this
with five steers and two year-old heif-
err, and went him twelve COWS better.
The gentleman from Texas, who drew
another jack saw the twelve and went
him fifty steers, twenty two year-old
heifers, four bulls and twenty-five
heifers better. Maj. Drumm looked
at his hand and placed ON the table
six fine Aldernay COWS, five imported
Durham bulls, one hundred grass fed
two-year Odds, fifty prime to medium
cron-fed Colorado hall-breed steers
with a side bet of a Normandy geld
ing to cover the bar bill. The man
from Texas made his bet good with
an even 25O straight Kansas wintered
Texas halfbreeds, ten Scotch polled
! cattle, fourteen mustangs and n. c. or

The NeIc Detroit and Chicago Short L inc
DETROIT, June 30.-A new line between
Chicago and Detroit is just upon the point
of being opened. A party of prominent
railway officials arrived at Detroit this
evening from Chicago, passing over the
new line between this city and Chicago.
The party consisted of G. Stiff, general
superintendent, and Wm. Edgar, general
passenger agent of the Great Western rail-
way; II. NJ. Howe, vice president, and H.
@. Townsend, general passenger agent of
the Wabash railway. They were accom-
panied to Auburn junction by officials of
the Baltimore & Ohio railway. All the
gentlemen expressed themselves as highly
delighted with the condition of the track,
and feel assured that the new line can do
large share of the traffic between Detroit
and Chicago. The line consists of the
Wabash railway from Detroit to Auburn
junction, 126 miles, and the Baltimore &
Ohio from Auburn junction to Chicago,
272 miles, or thirteen miles shorter than
any existing line. In connection with the
Great Western railway from Detroit, this
will make the shortest line between Chicago
and Niagara Falls and Buffalo. The new
line will be opened for business July 8, and
fast trains will be put on to run through
solid between Chicago and Niagara Falls. E

MILWAUKEE, Wis. July 1.-The day
after the now famous Mrs. Bush left her
Seventeenth street residence so suddenly,
a part of a letter written in masculine
hand was found upon one of the mantels
in the house by neighbor, well known
west side lady Mrs! Bush had evidently
dropped the note in her haste to leave the
city. The portion of the letter
left intact conveyed some very warm
sentiments. The style IS very Ioverlike.
The letter complained Of the time that had
elapsed since the two had met, and the
writer said he was counting the hours
when they would meet again. 4 meeting
had evidently been agreed upon or was
expected between them in the very near
future. The note was signed s.
