PLAYING Cards.

The invention of playing cards has
been attributed to the Chinese, Hindoos,
Arabians and Romans, but cards as
nov used were invented by Jacques
Gringonneur, a painter, in Paris in the
fourteenth century. They were sup
posed to have been first made for the
amusement of (Sarles VI of France,
Who was ~deranged. The French had
particular names for the 12 court cards.
The four kings were David, Alexander,
Cesar and Charles; the four queens,
Angine, Esther, Judith and Pallas; the
1our knaves or knights, Ogier the Dane,
LAncelot, La Hire and Hector de Gar
1And. Cards seem originally, however,
% have been taken to England direct
from Spain, having probably been in
PRODUCED into that country by the Moors;
TIE clubs, in Spanish cards, not being
&refoils as with Us, but cudgels-that is,
bastos-the spades Oh swords, espadas.
They were at first stamped from wood
blocks in outline and filed in by hand,
but after the invention of engraving the
best artists engraved them on copper
and struck them off at once. Column
bines were spades; rabbits, clubs; pinks,
diamonds, and roses, hearts. Human
figures opposed TO those Of flowers and
animals were the ancestors Of court
cards.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Among the Assembled Bathers.
ATLANTIC CITY, n. j., Aug. 27.-Wn.
Carr, aged about 90 years, was IN
stantly killed by a bolt of lightning
while in bathing in company with two
young women.
He had just entered the surf and
had but risen from dive beneath the
breakers when the flash came-the
first intina ton of the coming storm,
and the bolt struck him with fatal
shock. His companions, the Misses
Farnum, were within ten feet OF him
when the bolt descended. They suf-
fered severe electrical shock and

their companions lifeless body.
There were hundreds of people in the
surf near by and thousands on the
strand and beach, who saw the fatal
flash and the mark it struck. There
was an instant panic among the
bathers, who. more or less, felt the
radiating shock. and they hurried out
onto the strand as if fearful of another
visitation of the destroying element.
Although restoratives were promptly
applied young Carr could not be re-
vived His death Is said to be the first
by lightning ever occurring at this re-
sort.

An Examination Into It's Cause-Destitute
Families Of the Dead Miners.
SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 26.-An ex-
animation into the causes which led to
the death of thirty-seven men in the
Franklin coal mine Friday afternoon
was in progress yesterday.
A great many witnesses We're sum-
moned and the examination will last
several days. 1t is believed that many
of the men killed by black damp could
have saved their lives had they
fastened from the mine at the first
alarm. Many of them were overcome
by curiosity, loitered and death over
took them.
The mine is still on fire, but it is be-
lieved to be confined to No. 6 slope.
1t will be three or four months before
the mine again starts up. Many of the
families of the dead miners are in des-
titute circumstances. and a fund is be-
ing raised in this city and elsewhere
for their relief
