How Freddie Gebhardt Paid the Gam

ford Times. Butler Is a young man
about % years old, aud is inclined to be
what tho boys call blood. Since his
father became United States Senator,
Butler has been in many arapes. HIS
latest adventure was In New York City.
IL appears that Builer went TO New
York, and while there he became nc.
auaintod with Freddie Gebhardt, Of
i.angtry fame Gcbhardt Is u member
of the most fishonablc club in that city d.
One evening he introduced iiutler at tho
club ns his guest. Gebhardts associates
received Batter cordially and the latter
soon felt himself qniic at home. During
the evening gnme Of poker was pro.
posed. Butler asked permission TO take
hand. His request was granted. aud
he soon lost all the change he had in his
pockets. amounting to about $50. He
played along until he was ont about
$500. When the game concluded he
drew n note upon his father and Geb-
hardt, who had Introduce him, indorscd
tho note. Butler said the money should
be paid ns soon as be returhd 10 Wash
ington. This statement appeared salts
factory and Bniler eamo on TO Washing
ton.
Gebhardt waited several weeks before
writing to Builer to tell him that the
party who held the note claimed that he
(Gebhardtl. as the indorser, would be
held responsible unless the money was
Immediately forthcoming. Butler paid
no attention 10 Gebhnrdts letters. so the
latter addressed a letter 20 the senator,
stating the facts in the case, and re-
questing hun to pay the debt contracted
by his son. Tho Senator replied that he
know nothing about his sons conduct in
New York, and iutimated that Gebhardt
was bunko man or n three card monte
player, eudeavoring to blackmail him
out of 5000. Gobharit showed tho Sen
ator's letter TO several members OF the
club. and good laugh was had mt the
expense of Gebhnrdt.
The party holding the note insisted
upon its payment; 50 Gebhardt finally
drew n check for the amount aud took n
receipt. TLis he enclosed to Senator
Malone, with the statement that instead
of trying to swindle him out OF the
money, he tGehhnrdtl had been obliged
to pay Buffers gambling 6bts. He
denounced the Senator as q repudiator
as well as n r,a1imsier. This story is
from n well-tnown New York club man,
who says it is current gossip in New

Leaning Tower of Pisa.

The tower has such n strange effect
upon youl You see that the stairs are
very steep in some places. and that the
inner walls crowd down upon You in an
unpleasant way The effect is little
like being in the cabin OF ship at sod;
you realize kind OF undulating motion,
without having the visible cause of IL
before your eyes We stopped to rest /;
IA small window was at hand; we looked
down into the interior of the tower. 1t
was like doep rouud shaft that had
been sunk slantwise; there was Just
enough slant to it to be unpleasant. We
trudyed ON and on, and looked again.
The tower was beginning to move a
little; we both saw 1t aud felt IL. The
walls saggcd very much; il was with
some difficulty that we kept from slip.
ping out of the door level with the stairs
when the tower reeled over on our side
wonder that we had the courage to
complete the ascent. Towers have fallen
before now; leaning towers are not ex-
peeted to stand any longer than they
choose. The earth has sunk about the
Pisi, 30 that you go down several steps
to & Vt to the d, or on the ground floor.
We were near the ton; the roofs of
the city lay far below US; We caught
giddy glimpscs of the world from the
opening in the wall-the tempting doors
that invited us to step into eternity
without waiting our turn. by this time
the hollow OF the tower looked like a
monstrous funnel. We were stumbling
over the stone stairs in an .unplea antly
suggestive manner, whom we came to the
top chamber. where tho great bells hung.
Hero we breathcd more freely. The
big bell, weighing six tons, hangs on the
upper side of the tower, ito windward,
as il were; the smaller bells take their
chances on the down grade. This little
fact relieved us, for we were still affected
by the unsteadiness of the long, spiral
stairway. While were looking OF upon
the country from the lurrets above the
bell chamber, lol all the bells began
ringing right under our feet. The SEN
satiun was as ii the tower was about to
he shaken to pieces; every stone trem-
bled pcrcoptibly; the air was whistling
about our ears; one man did il all! He
sprang on to one of the bells and set it
swinging, then leaped gaily ON to the
other, and at last caught the big bell to
the windward and got its thick black
tongue in motion; So he skipped lightly
from one to another, dodeing the roaring
monsters as they h,ayed about him.
Escape was impossible while this con
cert was in progress.
The grecu hills wero about us on the
inland side; tho country was as flat rs n
floor from Pisa to the sea. Away of in
the corner by the shore lay Lcghorn.
Should we not so to Leghorn when il
lies but an hour hence by rail? We
thought it best, and as soon as the bells
were quiet We went down the corkscrew
stairway and came tn the outer door in
capital order. had thought to receive
the finishing touch on the way down,
but, on the contrary, lhaving become
