THE GAMBLER WINS ALWAYS.

Electrical Device for Winning at Die.
Revealed by an Odd Table.
Among the battered fotsam and Jet
sam that has accumulated in second
hand store in New Orleans, says the
Times-Democrat, is shabby round
table with curious secret, and no
doubt a still more curious history.
The top was once covered with green
billiard cloth, which is worn to tatters
and discloses steel plate set in the
centre and perhaps ten inches square.
The whole top is loose and can be re-
moved, revealing an interior space
containing horseshoe magnet wound
with wire and connected with an arma-
ture very much like that of an ordi
nary telegraph instrument. A close
examination shows an insulated wire
running down one of the legs to
small knob OF button, protruding oD
the outside. When the top is in place
the steel plate rests directly over the
magnet.
This strange device is explained
clearly enough by its present owner.
1T is dice table," he said, ION
which lot of money has been won.
When it was in order there was good
sized battery inside connected with
the magnet. When the knob on the
leg was pressed the current was turned
on, and that made the steel plate mag
netic. The dice they used with it had
small metal disks on one face, and as
long as the current was on they natur-
ally fell that side down. When the
knob was released they would fall any
way they CHANGED to come, so all that
was necessary for the operator to do
was to keep his knee on the button and
he could absolutely control his play

Shirt Waist For a Miss.

The shirt waist of 1899 is charac-
terized by the yoke extending loss
over the front, the moderate fullness
and shaping of the sleeve, less pouch
at the waist line in front, and more
elaborate neck decoration than ever
seen before. In place of the simple
linen collar stock with projecting
flare portion at the topis ofttimes worn,
and very dressy effect is given by
ribbon passed twice around the neck
and tied in small bow with long ends
at the front. Pink and white striped
percale is daintily depicted in the large
engraving with a stock tie of sea foam
green taffeta ribbon. The fronts are
gathered at neck, shoulder and waist
lines, the closing being made with
studs or buttons through buttonholes
worked in the box plait that edges the
right front. The back is laid in side
plaits, three on each side turning to-
ward the center, and the yoke that
forms the upper portion meets thetop
edge in q pretty curved point at the
centre. The yoke extends far enough
over the shoulders to hold the gath
cred edges Of the full fronts firmly in

EVIL Effect of the Cocktail.

II one goes to a dinner party Of three or
a banquet of three hundred, the first duty
is held to be to pour a highly alcoholic
cocktails into an empty stomach-an in
suit to the digestive organs as brutal as
could be offered them, and for three hours
excess Of heterogeneous food and flooded
with many kinds OF acoholic mixtures un-
til in the early morning hours they are at
last allowed some chance to repair their
injuries. But what an idea of nutrition
and of life it all presupposes! If visitor
from some other planet should stumble on
surely be long in fathoming the mystery of
why otherwise sensible and honest men
make themselves such slaves to the drink
fen1- And what the result of it is we all
see and know. The reliance upon alcohol
once established in youth, the tyranny be-
comes all the more furious in later years.
Republican news item. [volume] (Laport, Pa.) 1896-19??, 1899-04-20

pleats deftly arrange the fulness of
the draped vest over smooth plast-
ron, that is secured to the right front
lining and closes over on the left. The
stock collar is closed in centre back,
the Medici collar faring prettily
around at the sides. The sleeves are
stylishly gathered in the arm's-eye,
the wrists having slight rounded
flare. A black satin ribbon crush belt
is worn at the waist. The skirt has
the clinging, eel-like tendency at the
top that characterizes the new modes,
faring below the knees and falling in
soft folds. 1t is shaped with mar
row front gore and two wide circular
portions, fitted at the top by small
darts. Two backward-turning pleats
meet over the placket that is formed
at the top of the centre back seam.
Braided ornaments are used in clos
ing. Extremely charming will this
design be found for gowns of broad
cloth, Venetian, poplin, velvet, satin,
taffeta or the new novelties now shown,
chenille and silk, passementerie,
ruched or frilled ribbon, lace or irreg-
ular insertion providing suitable gar
niture.
To make this waist for woman of
medium size will require one and one
half yards of material forty -four
inches wide. To make the skirt will
require three and one-half yards of
same width material.

when he would not renew the mort
gage. That was the day killed him.
I pleaded with him, but in vain. He
insisted he would foreclose the mort
gage. He called my mother a vile

picked it up and aimed at him. He
wheeled around in his chair toward
his desk, and the bullet entered his

''While he was telling this story the
prisoner several times pressed his
hand to his left side and moaned as if in
pain.
Have vou anything else to say?'
asked Judge Blank.
&c 'Yes. 1 want to say, explained
the prisoner in gasping tones, that
after I had retained that lawyer
pointing to Horace Dash-I told him
was guilty; that wanted to plead
guilty. He forbade my doing so-said
it was splendid case. He would ac-
quit me and cover himself with glory.
He said he would ask no fee. I urged
that was guilty, but he said he could
clear me. | consented to the plea OF
not guilty.
''Again the prisoner placed his hand
to his heart and with an effort said:
Il could not save my life at the ex
pense of an innocent person, and that
person a woman. L am guilty.
''He sank back into chair, and
Judge Blank turned to Horace Dash,
the prisoners counsel, and asked:
What have you to say for your
self?'
4 did my duty-my plain duty, ;
said the lawyer. 'As understand it,
it is lawyers duty to defend his eli
ent and to acquit him as best he can
:" Not at the expense of an innocent
person, remarked Judge Blank.
L maintain it is, replied the
lawyer. Although prisoner may
confess guilt he may be innocent. He
might be insane when he confessed.
He might be actuated by desire to
save, at the expense of his life, a guilty
person. He might
" L am guilty!' shouted the pris-
oner. Il did it. I did it. +
"He fell backward on the counsel's
table, gasped and, after few convnl
sive movements, attempted to rise, fell
back, twisted half around, and his soul
passed to a higher tribunal. Judge
Blank, after ascertaining that the pris.
oner at the bar was dead, said: Il &C.
cept his plea of guilty"
The teller of this story then added,
"The man who so strangely passed be-
fore me today was the prisoners law
yer. He never prospered at the bar.
His career was ruined with the case
which he hoped wo1ld earn him fame"

stylish shaping or the length of front
that is necessary to handsome figure.
The fullness at the waist line may be
regulated by draw tape. The fashion
able sleeves are gathered top and bot

The slashed openings are faced by over
laps and narrowly hemmed or faced

style may be of silk, fine wooden or
wash fabrics, foulard, taffeta and
Japanese silks, lawn, dimlty. ging-
ham, plain and checked nainsook,

the newest materials.
To make this shirt waist for miss
fourteen years old will require two and

QUAINT AND CURIOUS.

In Germany clock has been made
that is warranted to go for 5000 years.
The yellow silk spider of Ceylon is
perhaps the largest of his species.
His average weight is nine ounces.
Artificial legs and arms were in use
in Egypt as early as b. G. 700. They
were made by priests, who were the
physicians of that early time.
Only seventy years have elapsed
since the first railway in the world
was finished. During that compare
lively brief period four hundred thou
sand miles have been constructed.
In this country placing the thumb

English Authors and Abstinence.

Waller, one of the liveliest and wittest
poets of the Restoration period, was an in
flexible abstainer from all intoxicating
liquors.
Lord Byron confessed: "The effect OF
wine upon mo Is to make me gloomy
gloomy at the very moment it is taken; but
1t never makes me gay.'
De Quincey wrote in eulogistic terms Of
the modern temperance movement: at has
attained, both at home and abroad, ma
tional range Of grandeur
Doctor Samuel johnson abstained for
considerable periods from Intoxicating
drinks, with great advantage to his mind
nnd feelings, and always absolutely con-
tended for the wisdom OF this course.
Lord Lytton wrote in 1S46): 81 agree in
the main In the principles of the temper
nnce society, and heartily wish it success,
being calculated to do much more"
Shakespeare, in several OF his dramas,
depicts the misery Of indulgence in strong
drink, and puts into Cassio's mouth the
celebrated words: "Oh, thou invisible spirit
of wine! II thou hast no name to be known
by, let US call thee-Devil!'
Sir Isaac Newton, John Locke and Robert
Boyle were examples Of remarkable abstem-
iousness, amounting almost to total abstin-
ence from all Intoxicating drinks. When
composing his treatise upon Optics, Sir
isaac used only water as beverage; and
LOCKE, In his writings, strongly recon-
mended abstinence, especially In the physi-
cal training of the young.
William Cobbett wrote: "In the midst OF
society where wine aud spirits are con-
sldered OF more value than water, have
lived two years with 10 other drink than
water, except when have found it con-
venient to obtain milk. Not an hours i'll
ness, not q headache for an hour, not the
smallest aiiment, not restless night, not a
drowsy morning have known during these
two famous years of my life."
