that intrinsically worthless thing to bring
them luck.
Among the English card players Of the
last century what was called a carp
bone"-that Is, the curious fieshy palate
Of the fsh-was supposed to be of singu-
lar efficacy in bringing luck at cards An
arlstocrauc devOtee Of the green baize
table, Lady Mary Coke, wrote to friend
something more than 100 years ago: The
GArp bones are intolerablei IN the evening
| lost ght-and-twenty guineas at Lady
Hartford ] have thrown one"--carp bone
in the fire; but whether It's yours or
Mrs, JacksOn's l can't tell" Was not this
Just like the African fetch worshipper?
The untutOred savage. when things go
wrong with him, beats his fetch; the Eng
lish lady, when her fetch failed 10 bring
her luck, threw 1t into the fire.
Again, the African beats and maltreats
mis- tetlch, but continues 10 worship A or
another; Lady Mary Coke chung 10 her
belief in the virtues OF the carp bone"
Six years later than the date of the pre-
VlOus extract she wrote TO a friend con-
corning another card party: Il lost 10
guineas, though the carp bone lay upon
the table; but l fear the princess me-
lia-"has taken away the virtue, for she
unfolded the paper, took it out, and called
pany more than it did me, for from that
time | lost At cards I am superstitious,
Lady Mary was candid although her rea-
soning Is open 10 question. Two centuries
earlier Reginald Scot the famous author
ity on witchcraft, had written that "a
bloud." There is no obvious connection
between this piece of superstition and
Lady Coke's absurd fetch, but, in folk
lore, luck, like other mysterious virtues,
is apt to be transferable and and object
which is considered good for some par
tlcular purpose gradually acquires a char
acter for virtue Of general application.
Even the cards themselves are some
times liable to be treated the way Lady
Mary treated the treacherous carp bone.
Edward Fitzgerald. the translator OF
"Omar Khayyam," was well acquainted
with the customs of the Suffolk coast folk,
and in some notes on their words and
phrases which he wrote many years ago,
he remarks that although cards were Of
ten carried on board their boats by the
fishermen to pass away the time at ALI
fOurs, Don or SirWiser' games unknown
TO the London card rOoms-yet they were
regarded with some suspicion when bust
ness did not 90 right. "A friend Of mine, :"
he says, vowed that If his luck continued
over the cards should go; and over they
went" Once more the fetish paid the
penalty.
Card sayings or proverbs are few Ev-
eryOne IS familiar with zone, two three,
four, if the cards are not played in sue
cession, kiss the dealer" To cut an honor
for the trump card is unlucky, for, says
a country proverb, when quality open
the door there is poverty behind" Corn
ish folk say that good luck turks under
a black deuce"-it should be touched by
says, Good luck in cards, bad luck in a
husband-or wife" But this is monstrous,
and may be relegated to the limbo of those
very numerous proverbs which may not
unfairly be defined as condensed foolish
ness.

Man Badly Whipped by an Eagle

From the Chicago Times Herald.
Petoskey, Mich. May 31.-Oscar Talcott
a solicitor for a farmers insurance COM
pany, had a startling experience to-day
four miles from Rondo. While passing
through a dense wood he was startled by

ceived tearing blows on the head and neck
that hurled him into the underbrush Ris-
ing he grappled with an American eagle
which had taken this way Of resenting
piunglng his talons again and again into
Talcott's neck and face. The female bird
did not join In the fight. After a dozen
rounds he drove his eagleshiD OF and
started for assistance. Huge gashes were

rho Mercury ut and Beiow Zero, In This
Vicinity, Yesterday Morning.
The average citizen Of the Upper Ohio
Valley shook in his shoes when he got
ont OF bed Yesterday morning.
This was not from fright, but was
owing To- the fact that the mercury WAS
dallyirg with the zero mark in a most
persistent manner At Schnepf's the
lowest was I'VE above zero, while at
the steel bridge toll house il got as low
as one above. In the country surround
ing the city as low as four and a half
below zero was reported and rs a result
q large amount of ice was manufactured
on the spot. The river was free of ice
at dark Friday night, but yesterday
morning at daylight it was so heavy
that navigation had 10 be suspended,
and this morning the river will be a
succession OF broad sheets. The water
is too high to permit gorges to form
readily, unless there should be two or
three more very cool nights.
Yesterday the mercury did not get
above fifteen above, at the highest, and
last evening it again dropped rapidly,
until at nine o'clock it stood at three
above at the steel bridge and nine above
at Schneprs. They there was let up,
and at midnight the figures were a de-
gree higher than those last above men
toned.

This City Tomorrow, and the

Matthew's Church Tuesday-A
Sketch of His Lite.

A week or so ago the Register printed
a statement to the effect that DR.. James
e. Reeves, was dying at Chattanooga,
his malady being a cancerous affection
Of the liver.
Yesterday evening a telegram was re-
ceived containing the sorrOwful news
that the distinguished physician was no
more, death having ensued during the
day. From the time his illness took a
serious turn DR.. Reeves had the benefit
OF the most skillful specialists in the
country. several physicians making
long railroad journeys in the hope OF
doing something to alleviate his suffer-
ing and restore him to health, and this
was invariably done through apprecia-
ton O. the distinguished service DR..
Reeves had given to the science of med
icine, through his many admirable pa
pers upon technical subjects and by mis-
microscopical researches. All these
efforts failed however. and the dis
tinguished patient steadily sank until
death came yesterday. The remains
viii arrive in this city tomorrow, and
the funeral services will be held at st.
Matthews church on Tuesday.

cieti> and a corresponding member of
several European Medical Societies. He
was the auth6T of many valuable papers
and treatisises, and of several books,
among them "A Practical Treatise on
Enteric or Typhoid Fever" and "A
Hand Book of Medical Microscopy" He
was recognized authority In sanitary
matters. but it was in microscopy that
he won his most enduring fame, and his
practical work and research was widely
recognized and appreciated
DR.. Reeves was born at Harrison
burg, Rockingham county, Va, in April.
1929. He graduated in medicine at the
University of Pennsylvania, and began
the practice of his profession at Philip
pi, this State. lie thence removed to

1865. From this city he removed TO
Chattanooga, about eight years ago.
I'm this city he took a very active in
terest I'm public affairs. and served ot
least one term in the city council. He
was one of the most genial and COM

wide circle of friends, and his death
