able card party now involves an ante
of five cents and limit of twenty. FIVE.
Society ladies can talk by the hour
about The game, for It's mysteries are
10 them as an open book.
Two well known young ladies of

the place. the other day. One of them
was making II purchase, which only
the day before, she sad she didn't
think she could afford to make. She
was questioned by her fair eompan-
ion, as 10 why she had changed her
mind. What followed is on the word
of the store owner.
"Jack called last nirht,' SAID the
lady who had changed her mind, land
by and by other company came in, and
after while somebody suggested
little game and we made up board

was ten cents out and felt just awful
Someone said play one jack pot fer

down, and raked in the pot. Wasn't
it sweet IN Jack TO think | wouldn't

How She hept Him Straight.

Smith, who Is given to naughty
ways, has n wife who keeps him
straight, in a measure, by shrewd
device. When he goes away on bust
ness, she sends him postal every day,
and always signed your loving wife"
Smith, in coniiding to Jones, declares
il AN awful bore. You see | don't
dare to stay out late with the knowl-
edge that the hotel clerks have read
those internal cards. Maybe they
haven't but ! always feel rs If they
had, and |! | take an extra glass of beer
it seems as ii the clerk had his eye on
me, and was grieving over my deprav.

doesn't want the clerk to know he
has loving wife, in another city. 1t
isn't ialr shake "Give her
wrong address, says Jones. Darsent;
there's always something on these
cards, some nonsense or other have TO
answer and she expects me to bring
the whole lot home with me. She
puts them all IN an album, and says
sweetly, lrll be SO nice, my dear in
after years, to look over them and see
where you were at such and such Il
time, and how you always thought of

Patrick Brodfe Meets Two Land
 Sharks And Is Taken In.
 Patrick Brodie, seaman, arrived in port yesterday with 8 schooner, and thought he would celebrate his arrival in the good old-fashioned way of sailors, by seeing the sights of the town. In pursuit of his purpose last evening he took in number of saloons and in enc of these places met two boon com panions who answer to the names of Thomas Gibbons and Thomas Carroll. Gibbons halls from Weehawken, N. J., and Carroll claims Tariffville as his stop ping place when at home: Both earn their living by braking on the railroad. After they had shown Brodie all they knew about New Haven they brought up at the Woolsey House where the tired sailor proposed to stop for the night. Gibbons and Carroll, however, had another plan, they invited Brodie out to have one more drink and the latter was willing. They enticed him down the railroad track a short ways and there set upon him, knocked him down and took $50 from him. Brodie made his way to the Union depct where he told his story to the officers, giving description of his as sailants. While the officers were listening to his tale who should walk into the depot but Gibbons and Carroll, and these were identified by Brodie and placed under arrest The officers took them to the Woolsey House where they were also identified the men who had been there and had left in company with Brodie, whereupon they were brought to the lookup. On being | searched one had $3.30 in his pockets, while the other had just a dime. I No trace of Brodies money was found upon them, but the officers got trace of place where they had put up $50. and it is quite l likely the money will be recovered.

 Battleford Surrounded and Camp Fires Burning-The French Cana dian Troops Showing the White Feather.
 OTTAWA, April 15.-There is little change in the condition of affairs in the Northwest as shown in the official reports to-day. The Indian uprising is attracting more attention than the half-breed insurrection and mem bers of the government admit that they are greatly alarmed for the welfare of the help less settlers. Battleford is again surrounded and camp fires are constantly burning. Sig nal fires have been lighted, which fact is looked upon with alarm. The Indians dis appeared from Battleford a few days ago and all efforts of the officers to discover their whereabouts have failed. It is believed that within the next few days accounts will dement's. The government denies the report that it is dis posed to effect a settlement with the half breeds and Indians by treaty Sir John states that he will first put down the rebellion and then listen to what the rebels have to say. A conditional surrender will be accepted. General Middleton telegraphs to-day that he will hardly encounter the rebels until Saturday. He is now pushing forward with his eight hundred men as fast as possible and tonight is fifteen miles north of Hum boldt. The minister of militia states that there is not the least foundation in the repor: that the artillery ammunition is of inferior quality. It was sent from here in advance of the troops by way of St. Paul to Winni- peg and is the same as used by the batteries at Kingston and Quebec all summer.
 MONTREAL, April 15.-Great surprise was caused here today by the receipt of news that the Sixty-ffth (MontreaD regiment vol unteers now at Calgary refuses to proceed against Riel making the excuse that they need equipments. Colonel Ouimet of the regiment has returned to Winnipeg. This is the only French Canadian regiment of Mon treal, and it's refusal to proceed is supposed to be unwillingness to be led against the half breeds under Riel.

SPRINGFIELD. H., April 15.-Thousands of people participated in the Lincoln memo rial services and tramped around the city in pouring rain. The parade was aban- doned and as much of the programme as could be conveniently carried out was given at the State House from hastily improvised platforms in the halls. The floral decora- lions at the monument and State House were lavish and magnificent. At o'clock about one thousand members of German singing societies defying the rain gathered at the county court house and marched to the State House under umbrellas with several bands of music escorting the speakers of the day.
