POKER PLAYING DIPLOMAT
True Story of the Game as Taught
a German Attache.
He Was Game In Spite of Guns and
Knives and Does Not Know
Ii Was Joke.

Mr. Won Schweringcr. OF the German en-
basSy, Is likely TO carry with him always
some ideas Of American ways of doing in
polite society and entertaining foreign
ers III the matter of card playing decidedly
more in the nature OF dime novels
OF the most mcIodramatic and sensational
character than Is at all compatible with the
real state of affairs.
The cause OF all this is that Mr.. Won Schwer-
niger has been made the subject Of prac-
teal joke, the recollections of which are
likely TO be OF lifelong duration The
episode took place at Deer Park within
the past fort night, when some of the young
bloods and sports IN the fa%ionabie life
or that resort put their heads together for
the purpose OF terrorIzing the foreigner,
who, happily for his future reputation for
bravery. proved himself game" in the
most unexpected manner
on the evening agreed upon Mfr Won
Schwernger was invited 10y the ringieaders

that SIX cards had been dealt him There

he with Col. Wilson alighted. They walked
! all around the statue, took it in from
| every point of view and then stopping just
| where they had alighted from the car

marked Little Phil

There is an equally strong probability
that you will have considera bic to do with
the designing and selection OF place for
that statue.
Now. what I want to impress upon
your mind is this, the statue is likely
TO be an equestrian one. Ir you put me on
any such looking horse as that, l Will
come back and haunt you"
Shortly after that Col. Wilson was ordered
away from Washington, and before his re-
turn, a year or two later, Gen. Sheridan
died. Strangely enough, one OF the very
first things brought to Col. Wilson'S atten-
tion after he came back were the drawings
for an equestrian statue OF Gen. Sheridan.
Every detail OF that cventful ride out to
Scott Circle with the general Of the Army
came back with full force TO the colonel
and with all speed possible, he called for
his carriage and drove TO a meeting Of the
committee in charge of the plans for the

regard TO the design of the horse which his

pistols and bowie knives were fIouriShed
about. Then some one in the crowd iumped
upon table, and Immediately a scene of
pandemonium ensued In The midst of il
