All of them are Hungarians. Not so
thrifty us til 5ir fellow-workmen of other
nationalities, they paid little attention
to the warnings of the coming rainy
dav, and basRed in the sunshine of pro
crastination until too late. The wages
paid Hungarians are not princely; their
weekly st;pcnds were eaten away in the
purchase Of necessities of life. When
the lockout began the great majority of
them found themselves without means
of subsistence. while it took little time
TO make the savings of the few thrifty
ones disappear.
Most of the Hungarians have habita-
tons in houses built by the Carnegie
company near the idle millss They are
well housed. but food is not to be had.
The refusal of the leaders to accept out
side contributions of money to carry on
the fight practically makes the condition

probable that the sight of thousands OF

the strikers to let the non-union men

OUR JACK.
How q Little Boy Turned the Heads Of
Whole Camp.

How q Little Boy Turned the Heads OF
. Whole Camp.
Just at the break of day one summer
morning some hunters camped on tile
headwaters of the Jefferson river heard
firing and yelling at a crossing below.
They turned out to a man and made all
haste. 1t was as they expected. A lone
emigrant family, driving up the valley in
search of spot to call home, had been at
tackled by the Indians. The father lay
dead-dead were three or four half grown
children-while the wife and mother had
put her back to a rock and with AK in
hand was defending her youngest offspring
IA bit of II boy abont three years old
whom she had snatched from the wagon.
She was dying woman us the hunters
came up. Those red devils had fired a
dozen arrows into her as she stood like
tigress at bay, but the boy hiding at her
feet was untouched.
1t was two days later when the hunters
came into our camp at Strawberry Hill,
and one of them had little Jack ON his
shoulder. They had buried the bodies
the Indians had secured all else. They
were bound to the north. and were ready
to hand the little chap over to the first
camp which would take him. And yet
not quite ready. There were over n hun.
bred of us-rgged and MISUNDERSTANDING,
delving and hoping, rude, rough miners
who hadn't seen child for years, but each
of us wanted the boy az our individual
property. 1t was finally decided to cast
lots Tor him. One hundred and seventeen
white beans and one single black one were
placed IN camp kettle, the kettle eleva,ed
to the top Of u post. and we formed into
line and each man drew bean.
In after days we said that Providence
had hand In It. Every white bean wH~
drawn out. and the black one left to odd

and always acting IN peacenaker, aud
there must have been something IN his

him in his arms, and though we were IN

It will seem silly and childish To you Ia
read Of our actions. The boy had beet,
snatched from the wagon In his night
dress, and the hunters had wrapped him
in a blanket. The first thing was to make
him a suit OF clothes, and every man IN
that camp had Il garment to offer, While
"Old Comfort" was making the first suit
two or three others were secretly under
way. Ten Of us knocked off work for half
day to enlarge the old mans shanty and
make it weatherproof. and it was unani
mously agreed that the camp should make
up to him the weekly allowance Of his

SOME FAMOUS HYMNS.
The Veil Of Obseurity in Which Their Authors
Live.
ia me-

Boston Globe.
1t seems a singular fact that ap-
parenttly nothing in literary
will relegate a writer to oblivion so
surely as to be the author of a
world famous hymn.
Take a few Instances:
Nearly every one has heard or
sung the line of Shall We Gather
at the River?" and We, how many
know even the name Of the author,
much less the fact that he is living?
The writer is the Rev. Robert
Lowry, ID. d. resident of Plain
field, N. J.
In Richmond, Ill.,, lives DR.. S.
Fillmore Bennett. TO how many is
his familiar yet to whom is his
familiar church song "rhe Sweet
By and By" not known?
In the interior of New York slate
lives Mrs. Anna Sherwood Hawks,
who wrote those famed lines of IL
Need Thee Every Hour"
Hardly known and never recog-
nized on the streets of New York
as she walks out is Fanny Crosby,
the author of countless hymns,
among them the famous one, "Safe
in the Arms of Jesus"
1t is odd that the veil of obscur-
itv should seem to be the newt
able regard of those whose pens
have given us the hymns which have
brought consolation and Joy to 20
many thousands.

is what he heard:
swell, I'll tell you how the little
game gave me a great reputation,
and made me, at least, temporarily
a hero, all through the fact that I,
by the merest accident, got the best
hand and was just smart enough
or foolish enough. as you choose
to call ito stay with it as long
as my money lasted. First, let
me tell you that, while l like to
play poker little occasionally, l
know nothing about manipulating
cards or playing tricks with them.
1 know only in general sort of
way the relative value of pairs,
threes, fulls, flushes, straights, etc.,
but the science of the game is
sealed book to me, and l am abso-
lu,ely ignorant of the first rudi-
ments of the education of card
sharp. But to my story.

to the Pacific coast. On my

where. a sport can get almost any
thing he calls for. l watched the
faro game for awhile, glanced at
the roulette game and then floated
naturally up to a poker table.
Five or six men were playing. 1t
was six table stakes, and if you
wanted to play you called one of
the men behind the bar and he
brought you $40 worth of chips.
Then you made the usual concilia-
tory remark, if no gentleman OBJ
jects I'll sit in for an hour, and
went at it. I watched the game
carefullo for twenty minutes and
made up my mind that it was a
square one, and then sat in The
cards came my way and l soon
had 500 to the good. Opposite
me sat fair-faced young man
who, l learned was one of the pro-
prietors Of the house. The other
players joked with him OCCASION

declaring it was no use trying to
buck against the house. That's
the way l knew who he was.
"Well, the house wasn't in it

saw him go over to the faro table

The two men glanced over toward

self that if my fair-faced friend and
the faro player came into the game
l would cash in and quit. A
moment later two losers left the
table, and the vacant chairs, side
by side, were taken by the faro
player and my former antagonist.
1t wouldn't do to draw out at once,
of course; and so 1 let the deal
proceed. The game progressed.
AFTER few deals the faro player
picked his ha nd, remarked in a
careless kind of a way: I've got
tens up He had no occasion to
make such remark at that stage
OF the game, but when I saw the
other man pass him card knew
what was going on. It. was clum.
silly done and I couldn't help smil-
ing inwardly at the crudeness of
the cheating. The faro player had
simply called for a. ten spot to
fill his hand and his partner had
given it to him. l stayed out OF
that game and was rewarded for
doing so by seeing ten full on
fours shown down. In the next
hand big listed miner dealt the
cards, and | knew that it was an
honest deal. Ihad an ace full pat,
so when the faro player picked up
his hand and murmured, 1--we got
jacks up and | again saw a card
passed which was willing to bet
bet something handsome was
jack, 1 felt pretty easy. 1 believed
that he had jack full. I stayed
in, but left h IN to do the raising.
Before it got around to him another
player raised it. The faro player
saw the raise and showed in his
pile with the words, Il tap YOU
He wasn't after me and expected
me to drop out. I studied for
moment, made up my mind that
the first raiser had threes, and
then showed in my pile, which was
just about big enough to see the
second raise. The first raiser
stayed and the others fled. We
drew cards. 1t was my first say
and 1 had to expose my hand by
standing pat. The first raiser took
two cards, the faro player stood
pat. All our money was up and it
was a showdown. The first raiser
had three kings to 60 with and
didn't help in the draw. The faro
player, as l suspected, had a jack
full. l had an ace full. / wish
you could have seen that mans
face. His fair-faced partner, the
man who had passed him the jack
leaned back in his chair and reared
with laughter.
II could see that he had sized
me up for card sharp, and that
he was amused beyond measure at
the smooth way in which had
done him up. AN ace full!' he
shouted. well, I'll be -. An
ace full!' I raked in the pot,
raked it off into my hat aud said:
Yes, an ace full, amt it? Tn
