THE GAMBLERS DEED.

A Game for q Gun, hut 1t Meant Lilo Oh
Death. and the Miner Won 1t.
Sixteen months of hard tunnelinp
and he had reached the bonanza. AS ne
stood gloating over the richest ore his
eyes lad ever Toasted on, he became
conscious of a presence, and turning
saw the tall form of Long Brown"
the gambler.
He was about to speak. when a duh
rumble was borne to their ears and q
tremor shook the earth as pieces Of
loosened rock fell at their feet.
Both knew what it meant. Brown
went back few rods with his lantern
and returned with a blanched face.
1--WE are shut in by cave, and it may
take days to dig us out" After pause
he continued:
How long will your provisions last2''
'Four days-for one."
''Then I'll be the one.'
The click of his weapon sounded
through the drift as he covered his old
enemy.
'Have you q pack of cards?" said tho
other. quietly. If so, let's play game
of draw, with the gun for stakes"
They gazed in each others eyes for =
few moments
Brown had never taken advantage of
mortal man. He would not do it now.
He produced pack of cards from his
pocket. He always carried them.
Cut" Deal" g.
The gambler drew three cards; so did
the miner.
"Queens.'
''Aces.'
The gambler looked second at his
opponents hand as it was laid down.
"You win," he said, quietly, and he
lifted the weapon.
Click, click. Bang!
His body lurched forward, sprawling
over the cards, after the smothered re-
port. The miner, with alook of horror
on his face, lifted the lantern and held
it over the body. As he shook his
sleeve four cards huttered down on the
PROSTATE figure.
1T was close shave" he said, but
I downed him!'--Short Stories.

public in Cashier Hayes office at the
post Office, about month ago. A gem
tleman who had fallen into the river
had so completely saturated his clothes
that when he was pulling some paper
out of one of his pockets forgetting
thirty dollars in currency he tore the
money all to pieces and had only wet,
soggy mass left. He was referred by
the treasury department to Mr.. Barlow
in order to furnish a necessary af1ida-
Wit, and. when he found it would take
some little time, work and patience. he
said he wanted to start to Philadelphi
that night, and he guessed he wouldn't
take the trouble on the slim chance of
getting anything. In this and all SIM
liar cases the real feeling of the appli-
cant almost invariably is that any ef-
fort to regain what is lost is simply
time thrown away, and so he dismisses
the matter:
Mr. Barlow, mentioned above as be-
ing connected with the cashiers Office
in the post office department., has a
great many applications for assistance
in getting mutilated currency re-
deemed, and as he prepares the affi-
davits for the parties he makes him

some interesting cases. An old man

W4TCH THE APPROPRI1 TION.

A bill passed the State Senate this week;
which aprropriates $1,000 for canal bridge
at Rochester. This may be a meiitoriOuS meas
ure we have no reason TO suppose that II is
not. But why does not the Democratic ma
jority include all the appropriations for canal
purposes in single bill? Last year Governor
Flower suggested that this should be done and
he renews the recommendation in his message
Of this year. 1t certainly need no argu-
ment to prove that the comse which he advo-
Gates is in the interest OF economical legisla-
ton. Let all the canal items OF all sorts be
gathered together in single measure, and the
members by footing them mp will be able to
know just how much of the peoples money
they are devotng TO a single object. But if
this is not done they are left in the dark touch
ing the sum total so that it could readily hap
pen that the canals would be given for one
purpose or another diSproportionatc share OF
the public bounty.
There are several organizations in the State
which have for their object the promoting OF
the welfare of the canals 1t would seem that
they would find it to their interest to scrutinize
every canal bill which is presented. and to
make a rosolute protest against any appropria-
ton which is not absolutely necessary. These
organizations have learned from the course Of
events at Albany during the last few years
that there is a large element in the State which
cares little or nothing for our canal system,
holding that it has outlived its usefulness. This
element may not have a valid reason for eX-
isting-we are not arguing that point just now.
The fact to which we now desire to direct the
attention Of the Canal Union and related bod
les is that it does exist. is in vigorous health,
and bids fair t. go on from strength to strength
unless the annual canal appropriations are kept
within reasonable bounds. \ few years ago
it was discovered by somebody with a taste
for figures that the canal appropriations pend
ing in the Legislature near the end of March
amounted t. nearly S+.00O,0OO. Was II any
wonder that n contemplation Of the statement
produced profound impression in what are
known as the anti-canal'' counties and went
far to gain them reinforcemcnts?
The worst enemies of the canals have always
been their fool friends-persons proceeding on
the theory that it is well year by year to

now BROOKLYN rs GOTERNED

There are many practical evidences Of mis-
government in Brooklyn apart from the illegal
and scandaous acts for which many officials
have been indicted. Property owners are
heavily taxed there; they have just cause for
complaint if the municipal administration
which is costly and burdensome, is 50 neili
cient as to increase the risks and expense Of
general business. The condition Of The Fire
Department is an apt illustration Of the cost
OF disagreement Property valuations are
excessive and have been steadily advancing
during recent years the tax-rate is high vet
the insurance companies have been compelled
to raise their charges on all property except
residences. This is a pIadica! matter which
deeply concerns taxpayers They are Justly
entitled to an administration Of the Fire lie
parmcnt that will be 50 thorough and efficient
rs TO exclude brooklyn property from the
category Of extremely hazardous risks. They
pay heavily for it, and their insurance bills
prove that they do not get it.
The inefiiciency of The Brooklyn Fire Depart
ment has been apparent for a long time. When
the great building occupied by Smith. Gray <
Co. was burned the incapacity of the iircmen
in their present laxity Of organization TO pro-
tect property was clearly demonstrated and
similar evidences OF imperfect discipline and
inadequate plant have been disclosed at every
large fire which has recently occurred II has
been shown in conspicuous instances that the
force does not understand the liIst principle of
successful ire-iighting; that is. 10 keep the
flames under control from the outset Remark

occasions rlatc glass windows have been
