DIED ON MS WAY HOME.
Sudden Decease of New York Man as
His Train Was About to Leave London.


His Train Was About to Leave London.
LONDON, Sept. GA sad scene occurred
at Waterloo station yesterday afternoon.
A few minutes before the special train
carrying passengers from London to
southampton TO catch the Hamburg
American line steamer Fuerst- Bismarck,
bound for New York, was upon the point
of leaving, group Of excited railroad off,
Gals gathered about one of the compart-
ments of frst-class carriage. Then a
tall, stout gentleman was lifted out Of the
carriage and laid upon the platform. A
physician was promptly sent for, but be-
fore he could reach the saloon the traveller
died without uttering word.
Papers found upon the dead mans body
showed him to be L. Dissau OF New York
city. The coroner was notified of Mr..
Dissau's death and the body was subse-
quently removed to an undertaker's estab-
Iishment.
The coroner's investigation determines
that Mr.. pissau died from heart disease.
He seemed to be travelling alone and is
supposed to have been diamond
merchant. Before he was assisted out of
the carriage Mr.. Dissau was able to call
the railway men, who came to his assist
ance, when it was seen that he was dan
gerously ill, to take care of the jewelry
that was in his possession. After the
coroner's examination the body was taken
to the morgue.

Romanism and Rebellion"
SARATOGA, N. Y, Sept. 25.-The Rev.
DIR. Burchard died at p. m. to-day.
The Rev. S. ID. Burchard, ID. d., who
was New York clergyman, achieved
national distinction in the campaign of
1884. The Presidential canvass was near
ing its close. A delegation of clergymcn
visited Mr.. Blaine at his hotel in New
York city. The Rev. DR.. Burchard made
an address and in the course of his adj
dress, which was highly eulogistic of Mr..
Blaine, referred to the Democratic party
as the party of rum, Romanism and
rebellion" The remark was instantly
seized upon by the Democratic newspapers
of New York and of the country, and ''the
three RS" were welded as an effective
campaign weapon by the supporters of
Mr.. Cleveland as going to show u religious
prejudice on the part Of the supporters of
the Republican candidate in the pivotal
state of New York. Many of Mr.. Blaine's
warmest adherents claim to this day that
but for the bigoted ALTERATION Of his
clerical eulogist Mr.. Blame would have
carried New York and thus been elected

Historical Bets on Horse Races.

Historical Bets on Horse Races.
1t is quite probable that there are just
now no men who gamble quite so heavily
except in stocks, as did the "plungers"
in the early part of this century, There
were in England a dozen men who made
$3.50, 900 abooks' on the Derby alone,
and as late as 1856 a "bookmaker" bet
$500, 200 to $1,000 against each of three
horses in one race. In 1S43 the owner
of the Derby favorite backed" him
publicly to win $3.50, 900, besides the
amount of his private bets, The ring of
"bookmakers' paid to one circle of
betters million dollars when Lecturer
won the Cesarewitch. The owner of
more than one Derby winner collected
$500, 600 on the next settling day, and in
several other years would have pocketed
million if their colts had been first
past the post" Most men who now
have the money aud the nerve to make
such enormous bets have given up horse
racing in favor of a game which has
still higher possibilities, and instead of
wagering $500, 900 on horse and calling
it gambling thsydeposit the same amount
as margin" in a speculation and call it
business. Although individuals do not
lay such heavy wagers as were some
times made by the "plungers" of old,
much more money is wagered now than
was risked fifty years ago. The differ
ence is that, while then one man bet
$100, 900. now ten men each bet $40, 900,
and the total amount waeered is doubled
OF single bets made on American horse
races the following instances are taken
from the records: Haughton bet Walton
$14, 900 to 81, 900 against "Girofe;"
Haughton bet Kelly $50, 600 to So 900
against "Henlopen;" Appleby aud John
son bet P. Lorillard $l1 900 to $40, 900
against "Pizarro. " and s25, 600 to $1,000
against LEO" in the same race. In
each of these cases it is probable that
the owners risked ten times these
amounts on each OF the races. as the bets
above stated were only made with one
'bookmaker."- ~. B. Curtis, in the
October Forum.

IN HORSE
BLANk ETS

Nearly every pattern of 5A Horse
Blanket is initiated in color and
style. In most cases the imitation
looks just as good as the genuine,
but it hasn't the a0a,p threads, and
so lacks strength, and while it sells
for only a little less than the genu-
inc it isn't worth one half as much.
The fact that ga Horse Blankets
are copied is strong evidence
that they are THE STANDARD.
and every buyer should see that
the "a trade mark is sewed on
the inside of the Blanket.

TWO ALTERNATIVES.

Shrewd Young Man Chooses an Unfair
but the Expensive One.
A young man came to this city some
time ago with no capital, but with an ex-
perienced and expert knack of getting rid
of money. He brought letters introduce
ing him to the favorable attention of
several rich and influential New York
business men. His relatives in the west
some means-were very glad to grant
such courtesies to him in consideration
of his departure from their immediate
neighborhood. He had proved an ex-
pensive indulgence for them.
One of the gentlemen upon whom the
young man called was the president at a
fiourishing down town bank. This bank
president had been the intimate friend
of the young mans father, and, without
thinking of the consequences, he offered
to do any thing in his power to advance
the interests of the son of his old friend.
The young man had "a business scheme"
in his head and he wanted credit at the
bank until his expected remittance ar
rived. The bank presid ent told him
that he might draw up to $1,000
The checks came in promptly for large
and small amounts until the young
mans oyerdrawn account amounted to
81, $50. The hard headed cashier then
went to the president and suggested
that the bank ought to have some COL
lateral. He frankly admitted that he
had no confidence in either the young
mans schemes or his intentions. The
president saw the force of his cashiers
suggestion, but, still chary OF offending
his old friends son, he wrote a personal
letter to the yonng man, saying:
MY DEAR YOUNG FRIEND-It has been
pleasure for me to accommodate you
with small line of credit at the bank.
Sufficient time, however, has elapsed,
think, to enable you to realize on your
own resources, and | trust that you are
now able to make a settlement. In
fact, | am constrained to say that you
Luuot ClthOi Joui dSSouub boOu VI
cease drawing checks on the bank.
The young man was not thin skinned.
and this letter did not offend him He
smiled as he read the closing sentence,
and stepping into the office of a friendly
broker, be penned the following note:
RESPECTED SIR-Accept my cordial
thanks for kindness. OF the two alter
natives that your suggest l am obliged
to accept the latter. | shall cease draw
ing checks on yonr bank. With kindest
regards, etc.
The kink hearted bank president was
somewhat nouplussed by this reply, and
he showed the note to his cashier. That
practical functionary looked over his
gold trimmed glasses at his superior and
said: "Umph! well, that is pretty slick.
But you have got rid of him cheaper
than l thought you would. ~ Y
Times.
