TESTING A TALKER.
II II Easy to DO 1t IL You Have
Enough Cash.

Enough Cash.
From the New York Recorder
Well down toward the front OF the smok-
ing car sat four or five men, and one OF
them was man Of garb. Not only that,
but ne was positive man-an aggressive
mana decided man. He was free with
his opinions and beliefs and one listening
to him got the idea that he was the sort
OF man who believed he was dead right
and was willing to put up his cash in de-
tense Of his opinion. Opposite me sat
drummer for a Cincinnati house, and as I
saw him looking over the top OF his paper
and apparently trying to size the man up,
I observed:
Don't You like to meet with a positive
man?'
"Positive-!' he blurted out. II can make
him take water in five minutes"
We'll, don't know about that!'
Then I'll show you. Lend me your hand
kerchief, please. Now If you will trust me,
let me take what small bills you have"
He took his handkerchief and mine and
nade 'wad.' Around 1t he wrapped
about $40 in greenbacks. making a roll of
Doodle which he could hardly put into his
pocket Then he nodded to me and we
went forward. and after a minute he said
to the man Of CAB:
Il have a little wager with my friend
here. How many times did Abraham Lin
coin serve as President?"
Two. of course" was the reply.
Are you posittve?"
Certainly 1 am"
Didn't he serve three?"
mo. sir. What's the matter with your
THE matter is. / think he served three
terms. and am willing to bet on 1t. Come
now, how much have you got that says he
only served two terms?'
How much? Why, man. I'll bet you
hundred to one!'
Put 'er right up!' said the drummer as
he pulled out his roll. II don't want no
one"
Il don't want to rob you," replied the
man Of CAB with his hand in his pocket.
Put 'er up! Here's loo to 1000 that
says you're dead wrong!'
I'm take you even for $780,
Put 'er up! Money talksv howled the
drummer. Il say three terms, and here's
the long green!
why, man, we all know that"
I'VE don't. either! You say two terms
and say three. offered you even money,
but I'll do better. Here's thousand to
five hundred. Select your own stakehol-
der"
1T doesn't seem as If I could be mis-
TAKEN" unused the positive man.
Put up. say!' shouted the drummer, as
he waved his Doodle in the air I'm 20
you a thousand to two fifty that he served
three termsv
well, 1t may be possible, Of course but
I'm so sure of it that"
Then put up! Here's a thousand to two
hundredv'
IT guess I won't bet. We are all liable to
be mistaken, you know, and perhaps 1t was
three terms"
The drummer and walked back and sat
down and lighted fresh cigars. and as he
returned me my property he said:
You see, you don't want to size a man
up too quickly. There are positive men
and there are men of gab There are ag-
gressive men and there are men of brag
When you can't tell the difference try my
way. When you shake big roll at a man
one Of two things will happen. If he's a
positive man down comes his cash. If he's
only a windmill on legs he'll crawfish. I
could have bluffed that chap over a stone
wall with a $40 bill"

Betting ON a Queen.
From the Honolulu Advertiser.

Hilo was the scene of singular spectacle
on the day the Kinau sailed. Henry West,
royalist, had unhappily staked his faith and
his money on the restoration of Mrs. DOM
inis with the incoming Of the new year.
He staked and lost, Of course, and was
condemned to parade the quiet streets Of
Hilo clad in red, white and blue and wheel
a keg of nails through the streets of the
sleepy little village in a wheelbarrow dec
GRATED with the American flag.

MILITARY ACTIVITY AT VICTORIA.

Adjutnnt General Powell Disbelieves
the Report of Intended FilibusterinG.
Colonel Powell. adjutant general. stated
yesterday at Ottawa that the reports
of filibustering expedition being organ
lied in British Columbia for service in
Hawaii were probably caused by the or
ganization in Victoria of a new garrison
battery drawn from Vancouver and West
minister. This battery is to consist of 200
men and will likely contain a good many
of the mounted police force whose term
has expired, and also a few Of those who
served in the Riel rebellion. AS Great
Britain, France and the United States have
an agreement Of neutrality as regards
Hawaii Col. Powell believes the dominion
government would promptly libel any fill
clustering expedition.
