BEANS AND A BLACKENED CORK.
erS.

A noiser and jolly game may follow
this. A bag of beans is brought in and
every one present puts his or her hand
in it and takes ai7feW beans, which are
held in the hand until all are served.
Then they are to count the beans. and
all who have odd numbers to form in
line on the right, and all with even
numbers to form a line on the left.
Then the first person on the right line
starts over to the left side, and gives
one in that line a bean as long as they
last, and then he Oh she sits down. The
same time the first one on the left
begins to give out what beans he or she
has on the right line, and when they
are AL gone, he or she sits down. The
next couple do the same, and SO on I'M
til the beans are all given out. The
Last couple by this time have all the
beans, and if one is dropped a burnt
cork is brought in and a little mark IS
put on the face for each one, and when
the total is counted the one having the
odd number is to have black marks put
on for every bean in excess of the num-
Der the other has.
The number of persons in the lines is
often not very great and the desire of
the person who goes into the bag FOR
the beans may be, and as he or she
are some left over sometimes, and in
that case those persons must have
burnt cork marks put on also. to teach
them to be less grasping another time.
This game wants to be played with
spirit, the head of the line ALWAYS
starting before the others reach the
end. The one having the odd number
at the end of the game is ''old maid or
old bachelor" OLIVE HARPER.

There is no more popular pose among

NEW JERSEY EXECUTION.
Murderer Beat His Employer t
Death For Money.

New York, March 1o-Louis Roesel
was hanged today in the Union county
Jail at Elizabeth, N J., for the murder
of James c. Pitts of Summit. Pitts
was murdered on the night of Sept. 8,
1897. Roesel was said to have planned
the murder, and to have actually struck
the fatal blow. His partner in the
crime was George Manshanda.
The object was robbery. Roesel work
ed for Pitts, who was reputed to be
wealthy. He left the farm and went to
New York some months before the
crime. There he met Manshanda and
the crime was planned in a Bowery
lodging house. Pitts lived alone ex-
cept for Mary Davis, a colored woman,
who kept house for him. The plan was
to beat out the brains of the man and
sack the house at leisure. The plan,
through a misdirected blow, failed. but
Pitts was killed. The two men were ar
rested a few weeks later. Each con-
fessed, but the state accepted Man
shanda as states evidence and convict
ed Roesel. Manshanda. was sent to state
prison for twenty years.

A QUICK REToRT.
The Secondhand Book Dealer Scores
One On Speaker Reed.

Speaker Reed is a frequenter of sec
around and is very apt to make several
calls to one purchase. One incident
connected with this trait is told in the
New York Sun: There is one old dealer
whose stand is near the capitol, and
Mr. Reed passes it daily on his walks
to and from the house. He has had
many call from the big speaker. and
like all the rest, has had poor success
in selling to him. The dealer is noted
for having sharp tongue, and he is
no respecter of persons. The other day
the speaker dropped in there and began
to browse in the old mans junk. After
awhile he picked up the novel, "Scru-
pies. and looked through it's 'pages.
Evidently he thought he would like to
read it, for, after he had laid it down
turned to it again, and again began to
look through it.
What is this book WORTH he finally
asked of the old man
THAT is just one-half of a doller,
sir" said the old fellow. very politely.
That's too much" replied the man
from Maine, with his characteristic
drawl.
well sir. do you know of any law
that cOmpelS you TO Duy IL II you QOn
want it?'' retorted the old dealer
Mr.. Reed laughed and turned to go.
AS he stepped out of the door, the old
man picked up the novel and looked
sharply at the title on the back.
Furthermore, SIR he added, now
that l look at the title, can't see what
on earth you want of book with that
title, anyway"
The remark fell harmlessly on the
expansive back of the speaker, but the
old book store man shrugged his Shout
ders every little while all the rest Of
the day, and chuckled softly to him

Stories of Actors.

GoRMAN's RETIREMENT.

Senator Germans retirement is a Sc
we're blow to Democratic organization
in the senate. For fifteen years he has
been the most active and forceful man
ager among the Democratic senators,
respected and followed by his party
colleagues; admired and feared by his
Republican associates.
Another very strong man is lost to
the senate by the retirement of the Pop
ulist leader, William Vincent Allen of
Nebraska. His valedictory speech in
the senate on Wednesday was a fine
effort. 1t was a comprehensive review
of his own senatorial term and also
of the course of the Populist party
within that period in the senate He
was one of the first Populist senators
elected, but since that time Washing
ton, Idaho. Nevada, South Dakota,
Kansas and North Carolina have all
chosen senators belonging to that
party. In his address Senator Allen
referred with feeling to the difficult
task which had befallen him to be the
pioneer of a political party. He spoke
of some of the mistakes of both politi-
cal parties and closed with the predic-
ton that the Peoples party would be
strong and active in 1900, fighting the
battle of free coinage of silver and

gress will depart tomorrow and the best
information is to the effect that we
shall not have the body with us again
before the 1st of October. OF course
eXigencies may arise which would lead
to the calling of an extra session earlier
than that date, but the president has
indicated to the Republican leaders
that he will refrain from summoning
a spring session, but will probably
bring congress together early in the
fall
The purpose of this action will be to
get the legislation of the Fifty-siXth
congress we'll advanced, so that there
can be an early adjournment for the
campaign of 1900. All indications now
are that there will be a spirited presi-
dental canvass in the centenary year,
and probably with the same leaders as
in 1896. The Chicago platform and
anti-imperialism will, in the judgment
of Democratic and Populst leaders. be
the declaration of Democratic princi-
pies and there is increased hope of sue
cess.
Senator Germans last act in public
life was to force the administration to
accept the increase in the army as a
temporary proposition. This not only
exhibited Germans great skill and
power as a leader, but it makes the
continuance of a large and menacing
standing army a direct issue in the
next presidential election. The most
prominent Democratic leaders now here
say there can be no question as to how
the people will align themselves on this
issue.

EVIDENCE ACCUMULATES.
nian to Borrow Money to
Bribe Him.

FRESNO, Sept. 25.-Dr. G. H. Gazarian
of the firm of Cook & Gazarian, dentists
of this city, claims that he is one of the
victims of the wholesale bribery practice
charged against DR.. F. F. Tebbets of the
State Board of Dental Examiners Ac-
cording to Gazarian's story he is a victim,
not because he was fieeced out of $500, but
because the board refused to issue him a
diploma after he had passed the examina-
ton but had refused to pungle.
Gazarian is an Armenian and speaks
English with difficulty, but he is reputed
to be one of the best practicing dentists
in Fresno, notwithstanding he has never
been granted a diploma. He has appeared
before the State Board of Dental Ex-
aminers three times and has taken the
examinations twice. the last time in
his story, DR.. F. F. Tebbets made over
lures to him.
In August, 1898, Gazarian decided to
take the examinations and went before
the State board, but failed on account Of
his inability to speak fiuently the English
language.
II was about to leave San Francisco In
disgust said the doctor to a corre-
spondent of The Call tonight, "but met a
young friend at the depot who told me
not to be discouraged; that he was sure
if / came next year he could arrange 1t
so that / would pass. l thanked him and
told him that l would. Before 1 left he
said / had gone at the thing in the wrong
way: that what i needed was not to study
English and dentistry but to get an in
fiuential friend on, the Board of Ex-
aminers. / told him didn't know any OF
