FoUR our "BROKE."
An Honest Poker story Which Beats the
Record.

Stories Of big hands held al cards are
going the rounds in the papers just
at present, and in this line, it IS be-
lieyed that Wheeling can furnish an in
stance which beats all poker stories
ever ehronicled.
Five young men sat in a little game
of draw Wednesday night at one OF the
wel-known resorts in town, aud as
none OF the participants are card
sharps, there can be no doubt that the
remarkable hands which were out came
20 the surface honestly. One held
a straight flush Of clubs, from the
ace to the five spot, another had
an ace flush Of hearts, third had three
kings, the fourth had straight flush OF
diamonds from the seven TO the jack,
and the fifth had three Fights. In the
draw the man with the three kings
drew two Jacks, and he who held the
three Fights drew the fourth eight. As
An argument that the cards came out
honestly II may be mentioned that The
dealer held the four Fights and was the
heaviest loser.
Old card players say they never
heard Of an instance in which five such
hands were held out against each other.

ONCE A TRAMP.
He Had Good STUFF In Him and Is Now
Doing Well.


Doing Well.
Sometimes there is some good in
tramp" said Edwin Wood, all old-time
telegrapher. ~ remember fellow
named Harrison. We used to hear of
him all over the country. He was a
splendid operator, and those of US that
didn't know him liked him because he
was first rate fellow TO have at the
other end of the line. We'd work with
him, say tonight in New Orleans.
couple of nights later he'd be In
Atlanta or Jacksonville. Then he'd
be in Savannah, and the next
week he'd have q key in the
Washington Office. Then we'd lose
sight of him, and the first thing we'd
Know we'd hear of him In Portland,
Ore. Well, one day in 1889, he came
into Chicago. / was sitting in the Sher-
man House. He got TO talking with
me, and he told ne he had left Frisco
few days before without cent and had
landed in Chicago with 81, and had
lived well on the way and travelled on
sleepers. He was well dressed, clean,
and quite In the fashion in everything.
on Tedully LAKE ulu lOf d WoiESo'uo
business man. Well, the day he struck
town was payday. I asked him what
he was going to do, and he said he
was going to Europe to take in
the Paris exposition. He went around
among the boys and collected about Sl2
and left for New York. / heard from
him few days later over the wire. He
said he had made deal and was going
to the exposition as the agent for a
New York electrical concern. He
spoke French pretty fairly, and did well
over there. After the exposition he
travelled all over Europe putting In cleo
trio light plants. He got tired OF that
and came back to America about a year
ago. and now he has got big thing
with Edison. He's settled down COM
pletely now, and Is making barrel OF

LOOKED UPON AS .FUr UP"
The Howley-R Riley Fight and What was
Thought of It.

There was considerable gossip about
town yesterday over the Howley-Rlley
fight, ana a good deal of it was OF an
unsavory nature. II is difficult to find
anyone who believes that anything gem
uine in the encounter was ever contem-
plated.
While it has been quite generally
known that neither of the principals
were here under their right names, IL
has not been fully known what degree
of intimacy exists between the two men.
1t is reported that they are not so much
strangers as they would make it ap-
pear. 1t is also reported that these
same two men, under their real or other
assumed names, have met once before,
aud that they fought 43 rounds; and
also that Howley came here at Riley's
suggestion. Certain IL is, however, the
contest had the symptoms OF having
been cooked up.

Final.

The semi-annual examinations which
were recently concluded at the Mount.
gave universal satisfaction. The ex-
ercises or each class were conducted
with a thoroughneSS OF detail that
gave fattering evidence OF an earnest
application to study, during the preced-
ing session OF five months, and of a
gratifying success on the part OF the
Young ladies. Beginning with the little
Spanish senOrlta, OF five years old, who
could point out all her letters and an
swer questions in arithmetic and cate
chism, the examinations passed in turn
TO every class Of the Lng'ish course,
and concluded with the French, Italian,
German and Latin languages.
The general order Of the school was
not interrupted, each class being sum
moned in its proper course to the
Science room for examination, while all
Of the others followed the ordinary
routine. Now that the trying ordeal is
past, VT enter upon the second session
with renewed energy and determine
tiOn that the June Final and the Com
mencement exercises shall not ind US
unworthy Of reward.
The successful termination OF the eX-
animation zas celebrated as usual with
a delightful hop. killmyer was en-
gagged for the questionable Mount.
