CLERGYMAN.

The prince of the three-card monte |
and bunco men in Virginia is a man
named SkiVington- He tells some very
interesting anecdotes. He picked up a
clergyman who was on a visit to the
capital for the first time. He invited him
TO witness the explosion Of some myth
cal patent torpedoes under several equally
mythical old hulks across the Potomac.
The clergyman went, and they met the
customary coterie Of three-card-monte
men, and pretty soon the usual cattle
drover came along, apparently drunk and
displaying a big roll of money. The
game was. of course. three-card monte,
and the droVer reckIessly bet with his
confederate and lost a considerable sum-
Skivington showed the clergyman how
the drover was being cheated and invited
him to take a hand and win some money.
The clergyman, however. had con-
scientious scrupies against gambling, but
finally Skivington made proposition TO
him, saying that the drover would Ger
tainly be swindled out of all his money
by the sharpers and suggesting that it
would be doing a Christian act to win
his money, get his address and then
place the winnings in the bank to his
credit where he could recover them
when he was sober.
This looked like a charitable act, 30
the clergyman gave Skiv.n gtOn his Pock-
etbook containing several hundred dol
lars, and II was ventured on the cards
and lost Skivington was profuse In his
apologies and regrets, and while the
drover was gathering in his money
stranger appeared on the scene with
very wicked looking double-barreled
gun? He was furious at the discovery
that gambling had been going on on his
i E.,.v,
dred yards away, where, he said, a con-
stable resided. 1t was explained to the
clergyman that the statutes of Virginia
impose penalty of two years upon All
persons detected and convicted Of the
crime of gambling, and no sooner had
the bogus farmer taken a dozen steps
toward the house than the clergyman
made a dash for the river, followed C-ose-
IL by Skivington. They jumpad into a
boat and ro~ed back to Washington, the
minister actually thanking the gambler
for having saved him from arrest and
disgrace, so little did he suspect the real
character of his companion
Skivington had another adventure
with a lawyer, under similar CirCum-
stances; but the lawyer even risked his
watch and returned 20 Washington ab
soIutely penniIess. w hen the bogus
farmer appeared with the shot gun, tie

nv LITTLE WOMAN.

Ny little woman IL not rich.
Stands not in that strong blaze OF giory.
By fame flung 20 the lowest niche;
Che is not praised in song Or story,
She wears no costly disdem.
Or medal for some deed heroic;
She Is not angel OF = stole.
She never braved the roaring gale
To bring to land some half drowned sailor.
She'll never write deathless tale,
Nor thousands At her death bsvRil her.
She clsEnors not for wOman's rights"
She aims not for the Legislature.
She has her little human spites,
And sees her own weak Wromsn's nature
She'll never sound the trumpet's blast
Or shine q star OF any splendor-
She's just herself, from first 20 last,
willing or willful. cold or tender.
This is her portrait. Not 70 good,
OF earth and dew, not suPerhumsn,
For common life, and common food
Ny best beloved, my little woman

She Appreciated It.

A widow whose age might have been
forty, went into business a few weeks ago,
and the first move was to get a sign
painted. The services OF a sign-painJer
were secured, and when he finished his
work he put on his " imprint" by placing
his initials wv. A. H." down on the left
hand corner Of the sign. When the
widow came to criticise the work she
gueried:

the painter.
