a majority of the number of freeholders
in the town as adopted by the board.
l.. d. Childs, the state prohibition chair
man, endeavored to appear before the
board prepared to show the board that a
careful and laborious examination and
comparison of the county auditors books
from which the boards list was prepared
and the city clerks records, disclosed the
fact that $50 names of existing freehold
ers were omitted. At the same time he
showed that some of the freeholders
whose names appeared on the boards list
were non-residents, some females and
some dead The board however, met
with closed doors, leaving Capt. Childs
waiting outside and vouchsafing no invi-
tation to him to come in.

Roulette Players With System. ,
From the washington Star.


At both Nice and Monte Carlo
there are special shops devoted to the
sale Of small gambling apparatus-Cards
to be pricked in following the progression
of the colOrs and the figures, cash boxes
and satchels, record books and books
explaining clearly and simply how TO
break the bank. There are also numerous
loungers about the tables who, under the
title of professor" continue to find
Credulous people to intrust them with
their play. Perhaps half the frequenters
of the tables have some patent system
in their minds which they fancy would
beat the roulette wheel if they could only
have the patience to stick to it. OF ali
system players the most interesting are
those who pin their faith to 'martingales"
and actually play them. There is nearly
as much pleasure standing by their sides,
TO watch the completion of the arithme-
tical problem and the final winning of
the small sum so desired, as there is in
playing for yourself These martin
gale players are most often quite new
cOmers who have got hold of some we'll
known old system from a book. Having
tried it a few times with success upon a
private wheel, they feel that a sure thing
has been found.
The idea of a martingale is to win
fixed small sum with the least possible
FISK OF loss.
For instance, you have capital of 5000
to hazard, and you wish to win s. each
day and then stop. If you do this every
day The expenses of your vacation will be
made. 1t is the simplest thing in the
world.
Go to the roulette wheel and bet always
on the even chance of red You put 81
on the red square. The ball whirls round
the sunken disk and falls with a click into
a compartment, red or black. Suppose
it is black, and you have lost 81 Then
you bet 81, and if red wins you have your
original dollar plus the one you sought to
gain. Continue this until you have won
S..
But if you also lose the second bet, you
go on doubling until you win, placing a
on the third trial, s. on the fourth, SIG on
the fifth, S32 on the sixth and $64 on the
seventh, when if you have still lost each
time, your $500 capital is so depleted that
you cannot bet the necessary $l28 on the
eighth turn.
This is grave defect. Ifyou could for
ever double, red must turn up soon, and
the first time that it appears all your
losses are regained plus-what} The one
miserable dollar that you started out to
win! The remote possibility of an IN
lucky run that will exhaust your capital,
for the sake of gaining veritable rrihe,
is sufficient to make the amateurs quite
timid of this system.

got of in good shape, but they had not
sailed a quarter Of mile before the wind

light nearly opposite the club house.
This put an end 10 the yacht races and
boats from the Scotia had to 90 TO their
assistance and tow them back to the club
house
The race of the naptha launche, how
over. was success. 1t was exciting
from start to finish, and was closely CON
tested. In the first class, Maj. Wiki
ms new boat, the Moselle, carried of the
prize, and in the second, Mr.. L. 7.
Turner's Qui Vive easily beat all COM

The Revenge of Fate.

Here is a letter from friend OF mine in
Kansas" said guest at a Detroit hotel the
other evening to a Detroit Free Press writer,
as he held the epistle in his hand. "and it re-
lates to very serious circumstance. With
out the letter here to back me up l should
not have dared to tell you the story"
He was asked TO drive ahead, and after an
other glance at the letter he continued:
From my earliest recollection l love the
patter OF my rain drops on the roof at night.
Many and many n night I've rubbed snuff IN
my eyes that might keep awake the longer
to hear the patter. Five years ago l built
me house in certain town in Kansas. 1t
cost me $500 extra to get things so arranged
that could hear the rain drops patter as
lay In my bed For two weeks before moved
in 1t, IL rained every night / lived in that
hoose three years, and what do you suppose
happened, or, rather. didn't happen?"
1t burned down and there was no insur-
ance,' answered one of the crowd.
NO, sir, 1t never rained one single night
in all those three years, unless happened to
be away from home. If there were showers
they'd pass away before bedtime If hap
pened to be away itwould pour all night. 1
got so mad about it that L went to bed in the
daytime several times, and pledge you my
word II 1t didn't stop raining before 1 got
fairly between the sheets!'
And what about the letter.
IT'S from the man who bought my house
He bought it because he wanted to hear the
rain drops patter and he says; What in
DlaZeS Is tne matter Win your ola Snanty, any
how" 1t hasn't rained here but one night
since l bought you out and then not a blamed
drop fell on the roof of this houser Isn't il
curiOus?"
Have you any theory about it,"

ton"
How retribution?"

titled, Rain Drops on the Roof" Wrote il

Then everybody got up in the most solemn
manner and walked away and left him to pur
sue the downward path which leads to des-
truction.

COWS MIXED BY FISH.
Remarkable Discovery That Averted
Wholesale Lawsuits.
From the Philadelphla Record.

From the Philadelphia Record.
New Hope, Pa, June 2l.-The discov-
cry that German carp drinks milk has
averted what threatened to be wholesale
suits for theft Michael Herman, for
several months, or ever since the weather
grew warm, has noticed that his blooded
cows return from their luXuriant pastures
with full stomachs and empty udders
There was a suspicion that the cows had
been MIXED by families who reside in
the neighborhOod. This thing continued
and Mr.. Tiernan's dairy product reached
zero. He watched his COWS, bnt could
not discover the milk robbers.
Yesterday he had a startling revelation.
He was standing by the mill race which
runs through his farm he saw his favor
lite COW enjoying herself in the water
which touched her body After a pro
longed bath, the bovine emerged from
the stream. Clinging to the animals I'd
der was a carp that weighed about Is
pounds. 1t had drunk every ounce of the
cows milk. Mr. Herman says that the
cows have regularly gone to the mill race
to keep cool, and the fish have as dill
gently extracted their milk.

he VIII Give Negroes Severe SEN
tences Despite Criticism.
Macon, Ga, June 26.-When the Bibb
county grand jury made its final present
ments to-day it took occasion to compli-
ment Judge Bartlett, who was recently
called down by the supreme court for in
fiicting too heavy sentences upon negroes
convicted of crimes After the report
was read Judge Bartlett responded and
scored the supreme court and newspapers
severely. He said that through his en-
deavor to protect the homes of
citizens from invasion at night
by persons ready to rob and
kill, if necessary, he had brought
down upon himself criticism of the SUI
preme court, which was unwarranted in
its interference, as he considered, with
my usual determination which has charac-
terized all my acts, said the Judge, 81
refused to obey the direction of this court.
Despite what it has done l shall continue
TO do my duty as interpret it and ! shall
not falter on account of criticisms of this

cARRoLLToN's POSTMASTER.
The Present omcial Refuses to vaoate
the once.

Carrollton, Ca, June 27.-It seems now
that Carrollton will not have a demo
cratic postmaster for awhile, although r.
N. Moses, a staunch democrat, and a
brother of Congressman G. L. Moses, was
appointed some days ago. The present
incumbent is Judge G. II. Merrell,
who has been postmaster here for the
past twenty years, with the exception of
three and a half years during Presi-
dent Cleveland's first administration.
Judge Merrill is a straightout republi-
can, but is a quiet man, and never takes
stock in political affairs, and hence
claims to be non partisan, but still says
he is a republican. Judge Merrill was
fought last year by a partisan man of his
party here, and he wrote an address to
Fourth congressional district, which
was headed why we should
vote for Harrison" This letter
was shown Mr.. Bissell and
consequently Judge Merrell was removed;
but he says he don't think he will give up
the office, for the President had no right
to remove him according to the civil SER
vice rules. He says he believes he can
carry the case into the courts and retain
the postoffice till his presidential commits
sion expires. Mr.. Moses, the newly APP
pointed postmaster, has made his bond
and returned to Washington, but it may
be when his commission arrives, he will
not be postmaster till he has a lawsuit
The outcome of the matter is looked for
with interest by democrats, who generally
oppose of the appointment of Mr. Moses.

FIRED ON BY NEGROES.
A White Woman Of Bremen Has a
Marrow Escape From Death.

Bremen, Ca, June 27.-The shooting at
a white woman by a negro woman created
much excitement here this morning.
Mrs. Moore caught Whey Perkins, no
torious negro woman, stealing coffee
from her kitchen this morning Mrs
Moore, who is the wife of railroad man
here, told the negress that she was going
to have her arrested. The negress, who
lives next door to Mrs. Moore, asked the
lady to come to the door, which
she did and the negress shot at her. The
ball passed near Mrs. Moorel and came
near hitting a man who was on a box car
a hundred yards away. AS soon as the
negress, who seems to be quite awkward
with a pistol, shot at Mrs. Moore she
threw down her gun and ran. City Mar
shall Bob Reeves was near and ran
after her, together with half dozen men
securing the woods all afternoon, and To-
Gated her at Waco locked up In room
She was arrested about s o'clock tonight
and lodged in Jail at Bremen.
