The Luck of a Man Who Happened to
stroll Into n LOuisN lie Pool Rnnn

The Luck of a Man Who Happened to
Stroll Intoa Louisville Pool Room.
A good story is told about Oliver p.
Lucas, who died while holding the po-
sition of secretary of the board of alder
men, and Bob Cathcart, horseman who
was widely known and who had many
friends in Louisville, says the Louisville
Courier-Journal. Cathcart was inter
| estcd in poolroom here and was selling
pools on big race one day when Lucas
came in.
The two were well acquainted ard Lucas
nodded his head as saIutation or greeting
when ne caught Cathcart's eye If he
noticed it, he attached no significance to
the fact that Cathcart Immediately cried:
sold for $40" Lucas passed out of
the room and some days later an attache of
the poolroom meeting Lucas asked him why
he did not come and get the pool he had
Won. Still ignorant of the fact, and think
! ing some jest was intended, Lucas flour
ished his hand careessly and replied:
'oh, don't need it. I've got plenty of
money"
A day ortwo passed and Lucas received a
second inquiry about the money. By this
| this time his curiosity was excited and he
| asked friend to go to the poolroom and
find out what all that talk was about This
! friend speedily learned that Cathcart had
| accepted Lucas nod as bid, knocked
down the pool TO him, and, as is often
done yet where the bidders are known,
/ simply slipped a ticket in the box The
horse that the pool was sold on won the
race and there was something over $500
/ awaiting Lucas.
When told the circumstances Lucas said
/ to bis friend Il hardly know whether to
take that money or not never bid on the
! old plug and never thought of such a thing.
/ I rI nj ha horse hefpra -
! friend told him be had just as well take the
! honey, for some one would have bought the
! pool for dollar or two less, and Cathcaert
was not loser, as the commission money
was all be was looking for. Lucas allowed
| the money to remain there for nearlya week
| and then told some one about the pool-room

Confederate General Shelby Tells
Story of the War

Confederate General Shelby Tells
Story of the War.
II know this fellow Meade, Admiral
Meade, that is in such bad odor with the
administration at present The fact is
l captured him during the war; said Gen.
10 o. Shelby to Kansas City Times re-
porter. Gen. Shelby is veritable ency-
clopedia of war stories, so every one in
the United States marshal's office at
the time gathered around to hear what he
had to say.
That was in 1 1863, down near Clarendon.
Monroe county, Ark" continued Gen.
Shelby. My men were encamped near the
White River, just below Clarendon, and
one night We discovered the gunboat
Queen City lying at anchor in the White
River near our camp. Just before day
engaged the gunboat. We had a six-gun
battery and 1000 men along the shore,
and we disabled the Queen City at the first
fire, and then fought for two hours before
She blew her whistles as a token of sur
render We ceased firing When the whis-
ties blew, and the boat floated down past
us without making an attempt to send
line ashore. We opened on them again,
and after awhile the whistles blew again.
We ceased firing, and she tried to float
past again. We opened up abain, and they
had to give in.
1--WE took the dead, wounded, and the
prisoners off the boat. The captain of
the boat was named Hickey, and this fell
low Meade was a lieutenant and the next
in command. When we got every one off
the boat We set fire to it. AS we did so we
heard the signal guns OF the Tyler and
gunboats 81 and SO. They We're lust
rounding the bend above Clarendon, but
they came too late. The Queen City had
blown up before they got there
Here Gen. Shelby paused for a moment
and indulged in a quiet laugh.
I'VE fought all three of those boats
after that, and crippled No. 33 SO that
she had to draw out of the fight The
others got one above and one below us
after that, though, and gave us cross fire
that cleaned US out in - short order.
We kept our prisoners, though, and /
tried to exchange them at Helena, Ark
/ couldn't Work an exchange, though.
and we let the whole crowd go l after.
