So ended the old Doctors story
whose parallel have listened to many
times in the folklore Of this primitive
community-stories of the old and
young, the grave and gay, whose souls,
like that of Barkis, had gone out with
the tide. oi'a-@ aya gag
..Mind you" +" reiterated the grim old
practitioner, II proffer no explanation
of the fact. But fact it is, sir, and no
superstitious fancy of sea-going popu-
lation, that the pulses of the living hu-
man heart rise and fall with the tidal
movement of the sea. Form your owl
theory of the phenomenon. Within
the. last five years, in district en-
bracing sixty square miles or SO by the
sea, I have noted the hour and minute
of no less than ninety three demises in
my own immediate practice, and every
soul of them has all gone out with tho
tide, save four who died suddenly BY
fatal accident. 1t is a riddle "a mystery.
But Iwho have sat with my fingers on
the wrist of many feeble patient, and
notice the pulse rise and strengthen,
or sink and Danish with the turning
of the tide, know that it is fact. =

under h command OF Captain Whitney.
lhey have been IN duty since the first
week III November, when they succeeded
Captain Berry's detachment, which had
had charge oince the funeral. The re-
cent cold snap was especially severe on
the men, as the bluff at Riverside is the
most exposed portion of the CITY and is
at the mercy of the Winds that sweep up
the bay Some Of the soldiers were H.
ht for duty, as both their hands and
feet we're f%rosthitteD, and guard had to
be mounted every hour instead of every
Two. 1t woald have been impossible to
live on the bluff, if the new barracks
had net been erected before the cold
weather set In, for the officers had to
leave their tents and live in the hotel
near by. Two OF the tents were blown
over the banks into the river. The city
police will henceforth have charge OF
Riverside Park and General Granite
tomb. Thirteen patroimen and two
mounted police have been stationed
there.

OF state, died suddenly to-day. The Sec
rotary was sitting at his desk, o few
moments before 3 o'clock, whe the

Brown, started Tor his residence, while
MI. Bryan, his secretary, ran to the
whlts house to convey the sad intelli-
gence to Mics Cleveland and her
friends, with whom Miss Bayard

with her sisters, and appeared to be
in the best OF health. Last night her
father held an official reception, and she
assisted him 10 receiving the guests, as
she always does, her mother moi being
strong enough to endure the fatigue.
Her vlvacity, which was unusual, was az

reception q few young people remained,
and thsre was an informal dance. About
Q O'Clock she retired and asked that she
be allowed to sleep later than usual, az
she was to receive with Miss Cleveland
in the afternoon. AT 2 O'Clock Mrs
Bayard directed that Miss
Kate be called in order to
dress for Miss Cleveland's reception, and

Gambling in New York.

On both sides of Ann street, Park

gambling houses still flourish, says New
York letter to the ST. Louis Republican.
The greatest downtown game Of all,
however, is at Barclay, in which com
bination concern old Dancer, who died
principal partner. The play here ranges
very high and those who go there are
technically known as high 'rollers." II
you may believe the dealer, they are all
colonies, Judges, counselors or senators.
The chips of this house range from fifty
cents to IS each and there is practically
no ''lmit." Some time ago there was

and every man jack of them moved over

No. s. 1t is house of great influence

game was set up in one of the back
rooms of Cortlandt street hotel, but the
ordinary guests of the house soon took
fright at the constant stream of queer
looking visitors going up to the parlors
AMI the proprietor was compelled tc
forego his uni lwful gains.
The night games are all uptown, and
those, of course, are of the aIistocra"y OF
the order, Play in all of them, except
those in the Bowerv, is for hi III stakes
and at each splendid supper, attende
