Legal status of Poker.

Poker has now, on a test case, been de-
clared to be a game of chance and pro-
hibited as illegal says the Vienna cores
pondent of the London Post Five play
ers were proceeded against and each fined
10 forms. The defendants included two
lawyers as wen as the proprietress of the
cafe where the game was being played
when the police made their appearance.
The action of the authorizes against this
popular game dates from 1886, wnen it
was decided that poker was a game of
chance. For a time the game lost a good
many devotees, but it gradually regaiaed
its old widespread popularity in the cafes.
The disastrous consequences of poker
playing for many of the citizens, with
whom it had become a ruinous passion,
led the authorities two years ago 10 put
the old decision once more into force. The
defendants, however, were found not
guilty on appeal, and, as a result, the
game was played with impunity in every
public cafe and restaurant under the eyes
of the police. A few days ago, however,
the wife of desperate and almost ruined
gambler appealed as a last resource to
the authorities, and in consequence the po-
lice made a raid on the cafe in question
One of the arguments produced in defense
was that the cards used for poker We're
stamped by the authorities and prepared
under their supervision, and that thus
the state itself had countenanced the play
ing. The decision'i is to be appealed against.

WORRYING THE POPUIJsTs.

Some of the papers of the state seem to
think 1t is their mission to bring back into
the Democratic party those Populists who
yet remain outside of the Democratic fold
Day after day they take occasion to re-
mind them that the latch string hangs on
the outside of the door, and that the best
thing they can do is to take advantage Of
the opportunity offered them and get back
into the Democratic household. This ad-
vice, with much more like 1t, is not cal
culated to cause the Populfsts to hurry out
of their own moribund party and into the
Democratic party. Such seeming eagerness
to get the Popuhsts into the Democratic
fold is likely to make the Populists sus-
pect that the Democrats are not so anxious
for their company as they are to see the
Populist party in its political grave.
The better way to deal with the Popu-
lists is to let them atone They know that
they are welcome to come back to the
Democratic organization and that is all
they care TO know. They don't want to be
nagged and worried about coming back
In fact, they feel well able to take care
of themselves. They are in no need of the
officious advice that every Democrat who
has access to the columns of a newspaper
sees fit TO give them.
1t is not good policy to let them get the
impression that the Democratic party is
afraid to have them continue their organ
ization. An impression of that sort is apt
10 keep them out of the party rather than
draw them into 1t.
If the Popufists in this state are let alone
they win not give the Democracy any more
trouble. Their party has received its death
blow. The Populists know that as well as
the Democrats do, and they will be thank
fun if it is permitted to disappear into
nothingness without any further notice.

Kissed by the Empress.

Dave Leahy was once kissed by the EN-
press of Austria, says the Topeka Capital
This is not a fairy tale but the abso-
lutte truth. 1t is one Of the most romantic
episodes of Dawes romantic life. Dave
has told the story hundreds of times, and
always with more than a suspicion of ten
derness for the unfortunate woman who
fell under the assassin's knife.
Mr.. Leahy is 40 years old, and the En-
press Elizabeth was 81. Twenty-eight years
ago she was the most brilliant and beau
tiful woman in Europe and the most ac-
complshed and daring horsewoman. At
that time Leahy was a handsome youth Of
twelve years, his hair black and curly.
The Empress did not dream there was
such a lad as young Dave on the globe,
but he was a ro-worshipper, and had
long admired her on her periodical trips
10 Ireland, and had been thrilled by hear
ing of her. adventures in following the
hounds over valley and mOOr-the most
Venturesone rider in the chase.
One day young Dave was stretched by
the roadside on his fathers farm in Lime
rick county, Ireland porting over books,
as was his custom, when there was heard
all at once a great Gathering of horses
hoofs and the baying of hounds 1t was a
fox hunt, and the boy knew what that
meant. He tried hard to get out of the
way, but the party had rounded sharp
curve, and was upon him before he could
reach a place Of safety.
In a flash he caught sight of a woman
wOndrously beautiful, mounted on a coal
black horse. Then he knew that the
horses hoOfs had struck him, and, Gu
riOusly enough, he began to wonder why
the blow had not killed him. Then he lost
sight Of things earthly.
The party halted, turned and came back
to where the lad was lying. The woman,
who was no less a parsonage than Eliza
BETH Empress of Austria, dsmOunted and
helped to raise Leahy from the ground.
With her own delicate handkerchief she
wiped the blood from his face and coaXed
him back to consciousness. Then she kissed
him and expressed profound regret over
the accident, and hoped he was not hurt
badly.
After being assured that he was not Sc
riousfy injured, the Empress pressed a
piece of money into his hand, mounted her
horse and rode slowly away with the par
II.
All these years Leahy has kept the coin
as lucky talisman, and one of the bright
est of his cherished boyhood memories is
that day In far-off Ireland when he was
kissed by an Empress.

Social Lines In Chicago.

Mrs. Bingley-Murgatroyd resides on the
Lake Shore Drive, says the Chicago Trib-
une Everybody who knows, anybody
knows Mrs. Bingley- Murgatroyd, by
reason of her position in society, her
distinguished appearance, and her prom
inence in club and philanthropic work.
Miss Gushley is a cherubic young wo-
man, residing far out on the South Side.
At a meeting of women's clubs, Mrs.
Bingley- Murga troyd made a speech, which
pleased Miss Gushley, who happened 10
be there.
Miss Gushley asked to be introduced to
her. Her wish was granted.
Mrs. Bingley- Murgatroyd was gracious.
Until Miss Gushley said: 81 was so
delighted with your remarks! Your name
is familiar to me. You reside in South
Chicago, do you not?'
Then Mrs Bingley- Murgatroyd froze
her.
The next day Miss Gushley dined at
the house of a friend
Among the guests was a distinguished
looking man of the name of Jones, who is
a consulting engineer of extended reputa-
ton, occupies one of the finest houses in
South Chicago, and is proud of it.
Miss Gushley, TO whom Mr.. Jones had
been hurriedly introduced, sat next TO
him at dinner.
Struck by his appearance she took spe-
cial pains to be agreeable, and Mr.. Jones
was remarkably gracious
Until she said: lone has to be so care

blunder the other day. / met Mrs. Bing-
-Murgatroyd, whose home is in one
of the finest portions of the city, and I
asked her-just think of tiff she didn't

And then Mr.. Jones froze her.

AN UNINTENrIoNAL INJUSTICE.

Those who edit the dispatches in Wash
ington for the news associations do the
South an unintentional injustice by per-
hitting the yellow fever, now prevailing
in portions of the states of Mississippi ard
Louisiana, to be referred to always as be-
ing In the South. The fever is of course
in the South, but in only a small part of
the South. From what they see in the
newspapers people in the North and West
who read the papers hastily, are very
apt to get the impression that the fever
is prevailing all over the South.
1t is not an unusual thing for persons
visiting New York who live in the South
Atlantic states to be asked il they are not
afraid to return home before frost Those
who ask these questions are entirely sin
cere. They don't know whereabouts in the
South the yellow fever is. They lave
heard or read that it Is in the South.
Hence they think it dangerous to visit
any one of the Southern states. or any
part of any one of them.
When officials In the Office of the mead
of the marine hospital service for in
stance give out information respecting
the progress of the disease 1t would be an
easy matter to name the state in which
the disease prevails. BY doing so the i'm
preston that the fever is prevailing in all
parts of the South would be quickly cor.
rected
New Orleans does not look upon the
fever situation as being at all alarming
Her leading physicians gave it as their
opinion a day or two ago that there would
not be an epidemic of the disease and the
Louisiana board of health was asked to
take steps 10 have the quarantine against
| New Orleans declared off.
In epidemic years the fever comes much
earlier than It did this year. There will be
! scattering cases from now on until frost
but there viii be no such outbreak of the
disease as will justify the adoption of shot
| gun quarantine to stop its spread.

ApMIRAL sAMPsoN,s TRouBLEs.

The story that has been set ahoat that
there was a settled purpose 10 make Ad-
miral Sampson responsible for the suffer
ings of the soldiers during the Santiago
campaign has had the effect. it seems, Of
making the admiral ill., The Havana dis
patches say that he has been incapacitated
for his duties as one of our commissioners
to arrange for the evacuation of Cuba
ever since the story got into the pews-
papers.
As a matter of fact, it is doubtful If
ever anybody in authority had a thought
Of trying to make him responsible for the
things complained Of in connection with
the Santiago army. The report that he
was to be made a sort of scape goat grew
out of the fact that he sent dispatch to
the President and also to Gen. Shafter
that an army of 10000 men could easily
take Santiago in forty-eight hours He
sent that dispatch as soon as he became
satisfied that Admiral Cervera's fleet was
in Santiago harbor. After that dispatch
was sent Santiago was reinforced.
No doubt Admiral SIMPSONS dispatch
had the effect of hurryng the army from
Tampa to Santiago. 1t is not improbable
that Gen. Shafter had the idea that he
would make quick work of Santiago and
that that idea was due TO what Admiral
Sampson said. The soldiers were rushed
forward without waiting for siege guns
or adequate supplies after Cuba was
reached, because it was believed probably
that the Spanish army could be captured
without them If it were quickly and bold
ly attacked But it is not rea-
sonab!e to suppose that Gen.
Shafter depended wholly on Admiral
SIMPSONS understanding of the situation.
After he reached Cuba 1t was his duty to
find out for himself what the situation
was, and doubtless that is what he did.
He knew that Admiral Sampson could not
be thoroughly informed of the number of
Spanish troops at Santiago nor what the
character of the defenses were, because
the admiral had no special means of know
ing. No doubt Admiral SIMPSONS dis
patch was based on such information as
was obtainable at the time it was written.
1t is safe to say that Gen. Shafter. when
he goes on the witness stand, will not
plead that he was misied by Admiral
Sampson. Therefore. it can hardly be
probable that Admiral Sampson has wor-
ried himself Ill over the story that what
are called the blunders of the Santiago
campaign are to be saddled upon him. II
that story is the cause of his sickness
there is more in it than the public yet
In ta,;,
ready said, however, the probability is
that the story, in the main, Is simply a
newspaper sensation.
