ASKING THE

Just What Happened when Information
Was Sought From the Commander.
"Onco on an ocean steamer, " said q
traveller, 1--WE had a heated shaft bear
ing, or something Of that sort, so that
the engines stopped for Ave or six hours
/ had often read and heard about how
the captain was the great mogul aboard
ship, how about all things pertaining
to tho affairs Of tho ship he held aloof
and must not be approached by the pas
sengers, and that it was a sort Of viola
ton Of the unwritten rules Of the sea
for a passenger to ask the captain any
thing. And there may DO some reason
in all this; If one passenger might ask
him, 40 might, and surely the command
CT Of the ship ought not to be %unneces-
sarily disturbed by useless questions.
We had been lying there three or fouI
hours waiting. There was no danger
whatever, bnt it was a delay and an in
cidcns Of interest, and Of course all the
passengers talked about nothing else
the common information was that the
delay was duo to a heated bearing.
Il was standing ON the upper deck
by the door to the main companionway
leading to the deck below. The captain
came along the upper deck from the
after part of the ship and went below
by hat companionway. He must pass
within a foot of me, and under the cir
cumstances it did not seem like a VIC
lently unreasonable breach Of salt water
etiquette to ask him what was the mat
ter, which 1 did. A passenger who stood
ON the other side of the doorway looked
at me with the amused smile Of an Older
traveller. The captain said nothing. He
simply passed on, to all outward ap
p~earances quite unconscious of my ques
ton or ever my presence. New Yorl

eaid General Wade Hampton. "%rofors 70
Henry Clay. Ho was a frequent visitor
at my fathers house in South Carolina
Both Clay and my father were ardent
whist playc-s, and nothing was more to
their minds than tho collection Of a
brace Of gentlemen equally addicted to
whist, and then tho quartet would play
FOR hours. While the name Of whist
might serve to imply a game where ST.
lence reigncd, my father and Clay
didn'i play whist that way. They ex-
ultcd audibly over n succoss, and did
not hesitate when they were playing as
partners to violently point ont mistakes
the other had made aud attributed de-
feat 20 the others ignorance and utter
lack OF natural intelligence. Indeed, on
occasions particularly trying, they were
even known to apply hard names to one
another. This they did In no slandorous
spirit, but 70 brighton up and sl-rpen
the wits Of the other 70 the improve
menis Of his play. A. they were sitting
down 10 % gamo as partners one evening
Clay remarked:
ITS a grcat outrage tho way we
talk 70 each other, and my idea now,
ut tho outset. Is for each Of MS to put up
$50, to belong 70 the one who is first
called hard names by the other. If you
assail me, the money is mine; If for
get myself, you take il.
my father readily agreed He felt
in n mild, agreeable mood. He was con-
hdent he would nevor again be a prey TO
the slightogt impulse to speak harshly
10 his dear friend Clay. And. besides, it
was his recollection that Clay was the
man who ragged and did the loud talk
ing. So my father cheerfully placed the
$50 ON top Of Clay's. He Thought it
would be a good lesson to the blue grass
orator to lose IL. As they proceeded
with the game Clay made some excess
lively thick headed and III advised plays.
He led tho wrong cards; he trumpcd
the wrong tricks; he did everything
idiotic in whist that he well could. My
fathers blood began to boil As he and
Clay lost game after game his wrath ran
and suffered in silence. It went ON for
hours, until Clay made some play Of
crowning imbccility which lost him and
my father the eleventh game. Flesh and
blood could stand no more. My father
sternly pushed tho $40 over to Clay.
why said Clay, opening his gray
eyes with a look Of innocence and amaze
meut, why doyou do that? You haven't
said a word.
"'No,' retorted my father, but I'm
going to tell you, sir, that you are the
most abject idiot, tho most boundless
imbecile that oTer dealt n hand at whist.
Yes, sir 1 repeat it, you are the -
fool 1 ever met in my life. "-Chicagc

Roe at that time, however, dividends
amounting to $4,000 which had not
been entered in his passbook, and the

The balance went on accommodating
dividends until 1875, when it became a
dormant account and ceased to draw in

$343. 25. Efforts were made without
success to find him. He had become
very poor, was too old and feeble to go

From what can be learned, the new movement is splrtuallstic in character, and tables move, bean pots talk and chairs write of the next wonders of the new world, and Of the wonders of the new creed. The infection is said to be courageous and old and young are fall ing in line. One of the conditions ex- acted by the new apostle of faith isan absolute severance of all old ties that bind them to the mother church. This is supposed Co be etiectually done by the discarding of scapulas, the break ing of cruciiixcs and the expatriation of saints, which, strange to say has been done.
