Young men ought not to play poksr-or old men, for that mstter-at any time, and when poker is played in business hours the heniousness of the act is Ha,. grant. So when President Warren FL liott of the Wilmington and Weldon rail way came unexpectedly upon Q group of his young men playing poker, with coffee ed their explanation that there was no for amusement.r At some remote period of his existence Mir. Elliott had been in- itiated into the intricacies of the game, and so he drew up a chair and watched it with interest. Each young man had in front of him pile of coffee beans, which, as they were careful to explain to the president, were of no value whatever. As a matter of fact, they had been bought of the banker for twenty-five cents, each. The president of the road watched the game with mild interest, and from time to time absently helped himself to pinch of beans from the different piles on the table, masticating them with. the indiffer- ent air of man who knew that unground coffee was only forty cents pound. The anguish of the young men, who saw their chips melt away, was poignant, but mo- body dared to explain. When the presi- dent had consumed all the beans in, sight he said good night in the most affable way and went of with an innocent smile on his rosy, cheerful face. The gentle man who kept the bank and had no chips to redeem is now warm admirer of the president. #s lMa eaatNtle g.syf

ne New York Prose-. and derived from

by the New York Press, and derived from an entirely trustworthy source, it appears that MT. Schoenhoff has failed twice in business within the course of the thirty years or whereabouts that have elapsed since he dawned on the American public as an emigIant from Poland. MT. Scho- enhof unhappily was not as prosperous as he might have been, for in 1868 his firm failed, paying twenty-five cents on the dollar in time notes, the creditors be- ing left to bear as patiently as they might an ad valorem tariff of seventy-fve per cent
 He continued in business, as appears from the record, with varying fortunes, or rather misfortunes, until, in December, 1876, being then of the firm of Jacob Schoenhoff X Co.,, he failed again, or rath- CT the firm failed. The liabilities of $50,- 900 were settled for 15 per cent. in cash and 35 per cent. in notes indorsed, the tariff on the creditors this being only 50 l per cent. ad valorem. Subsequent efforts to go into business were not received with | WAAu ChtAuSidSu by buo tLduo5 lOI AcdSoA5 that are obvious, so for two or three years he disappeared from view as trader. Later, however, the name of Schoenhoff again makes it's appearance on a firm sign, or rather the sign of firm, with the afterclap of 8 judgment in favor of the relatives of one of the partners, an at- tachment and receivership and subsequent dissolution.
 Now, all these misadventures do not imply any dishonesty on the part of MT. Jacob Schoenhoff; but they naturally suggest caution to people who might be invited to have dealings with him. To persons of intelligence they also suggest that MT. Schoenhoff is not exactly the man to be employed as business expert by committee of congress, unless the committee is seeking for the quickest method of driving the business men of the country into bankruptcy. MT. Schoenhoff might do well enough as an expert in fail ures, but when called in to decide the fate of great American industries, involving hundreds of millions, and the earnings, the happiness and independence of @ vast multitude of American workers and their families, then surprise may well change to amazement and ridicule to indignation.

Volume 37.

It is said that if all the favorable opin- ions of 'sTriby' that have been printed by newspaper critics could be collected they would make a volume of about the same length as Mir. DuMaurier's novel itself The oldest theory regarding this serial which has been attracting so much atten- tion in the page of Harper's was advanced by writer for Buffalo jonrnal, who guessed that the story had originally been intended for short skit, but had made such hit" that the writer had grealy en- larged upon the original plan, and was apparently prolonging the story "indefi- nitely." The facts are that "Triby" will end in the August Harper's, and the story, illustrations and all, was finished before page of it appeared in print.

IS HIS OPINION GOOD LAWf

The name of Jacob Sehoenhof Is prom inently mentioned as the author of 90 much of the new tarin bill as bears upon woolens. ,
 A large woolen importer, who has often often met Mir. SchoenhoH at the apptais- CTS office of the New York custom house, says: 'sHe is theoretically the most ma ignant and notorious enemy of American industries that I know. Personally, his manners are courteous and likeable, hut he is an extreme and obstreperous free trade theorist. It is an outrage that such a foe of American labor and capital should have been intrusted with the making of a law affecting hundreds of millions of cap- tal."

 OR THE SPRING POETS LAMENT. A poem on spring decided to write, The almanac said that 1 might; The mercury stood seventy three in the
 shade, And green was the grass, every blade. I stopped, just a moment, to hunt up a
 rhyme
 That would nicely fit in with "arbutus, D And resolved to have something turn up
 in due time, That would somehow or other "trans-
 mute us" For to tell you the truth the method 1 use When I woo the sweet fanciful muse, Is to choose the rhymes first, then make
 sense if can, Doctor Holmes first suggested the plan. When this difficult point had been settled
 at last,
 I looked up with sigh of relief; But this horrible weather had altered so
 fast,
 My rejoicing was soon turned to grief. For snow-bank now hid, to my deepest
 chagrln,,
 The anemone's delicate blow; And there's nothing to do now but claim
 to have been The author of Beautiful Snow."

FACTS WORTH KNowING.-In all dis eases of the nasal mucous membrane the remedy must be non-irritating. Nothing satisfactory can be accomplished with douches, snuffs, powders or astringents, because they are irritating, do not thoEr oughly reach the affected surfaces, and should be abandoned as worse than fail ures. A multitude of persons who had for years borne all the worry and pain that catarrh can inflict testify to radical and permanent cures wrought by Ely's Cream Balm. Your druggist has it.

ABSOLUTELY PURE

Harper's Bazar: The perfect way to yourself and devour them then and there. What ever equalled the zest of wild straw berries gathered from amid the long lush grasses in an upland meadow, or plucked by the roadside in dewy morning, or gleamed from short stems pushing their way up through green and gray mosses and lichens on the edge of wood? The freshness of the mountain, the breath of the pines are in them. A picture comes before me of two elm-trees on a knoll, below which there is spread in the June sunlight beautiful picture of hill, valley, and stream. Under the tree is 8 group of young people, one of them 8 story-writer whose name is on all mems tongues. He is not thinking of stories now, he is too busy with his guests devouring huge un- capped strawberries out of a shallow basket, dipping them into sugar and eat ing them with his fingers. In this fashion should they be served at breakfast, at af- ternoon teas, and anywhere else where those who are to eat them wish to get the true flavor of the strawberry. Small ber- ries may be served with sugar and cream, or with ice-cream. A delicious dessert is made by placing crushed strawberries in- to a half-frozen, unflavored custard, and freezing. Use a quart of the crushed ber- ries, we'll sweetened, to two quarts of the custard-which should also contain lib- eral amount of sugar-a cupful to quart of the custard.
