though New Jersey won by twelve TRICKS, six OF

IN response TO several requests for informa-
hon rs TO how THE Sun is getting on with Its

SO far there have been received 1850 hands
actually dealt and recorded, in addition 10
which there nro outstanding about 1000 blanks
which have not yet been Allied up or returned.

turned unified, but tho majority in the

how tho results obtained from the second batch

toercd to deal hands have made q brief analysis
OF them OF their own account, and have called
attention to various pocultarities in tho distri-
but on Of the cards. Curiously enough. tho ma

In the following proportions:

A similar result was found many years ago
by the whist editor Of tho Australia stan, which

made to deduce any principle OF play from the
observed fact, or to suggest any use 10 which
the knowledge Of tho prevalence OF siugletons

teered their services in dealing tho 10. 600 hands.

about 500 blanks, have made no returns 10 yet
In addition to all the hands already received

The Missions Invites Investigation
Editor Of The Virgininn:

$500 VI INC ' Xxi
Dear Sir-1 notice in your issue of to-
DAY u communication signed by me
Timothy Crowley, in which it is stated
that the ".so-called religious people who
are running the Union Mission, on
Church street. after giving n cordial, in
vitation to sober w~oIEingmcn, who have
been reduced to poverty by the introduce
lion of labor saving machinery, 10 seek
Its shelter, have been refused the assist
ance so offered" and cites the case OF n
man. who although having Il ticket en-
titllng him To lodgings, was refused.
We wish To state in reply to MI.
Crowley thai. tho managers of tho mis-
sion reserve the right 10 admit or to re.
fuse admittance To any man, whether
he has II Ticket or not. professional
amps whose sole business in life Is to
prey upon the kindness OF the charit-
able; drunken men, and men no. willing
TO work are not allowed i'm the mission,
but no sober n with or without Il
ticket, who is willing to work and TO
conform to the rules OF the mission is
ever refused aid. We do not know Mr..
crowley, nor the man to whom he refers.
but we venture to say that the labor
saving machinery known best to these
gentlemen is that invented TO extract
the juice from the corn. The mission
cordially Invites investigation us 10 the
manner and methods OF its workings.
The mission desires to establish the
following facts:
l. That 1t encourages neither laziness
nor begging, and is not a place where
professional beats can obtain food ana
lodgings.
=. That 1t compels air men, with or
without tickets. seeking food and shelter
to work for the same.
THESE sort of accusations have been
made against the Central Union Mission
or Washington. ID. c.. and against every
mission in the country. Missions are es-
'abliShed to help those who are willing
10 help themselves. and M others need
apply. If Mr.. Crowley will bring his
man TO the mission we think we can
convince him mat no sober man has
been refused aid. BY kindly giving this
communication Il prominent place in
your paper. you will greatly obllge.
