WHIST MANNERISMS.

The mannerisms of whist play
ers have been a theme of comment
and often or Cbjurgation ever since
the game has been established.
Whist-players who have no man
nerisms are very few, but every
player is keenly sensitive to their
Objectionable nature when dis
played by Others.
Re IS no valid reason for I'M
putting their use to any intentional
unfairness. Whist-players do not
stoop to that sort of thing. Some
times they are merely due to atfec-
tatiOn-little tricks of habit cop
led from some better player upon
whom, as so often happens, the
learner has modelled his methods
of play. More generally, how
ever, they are purely involuntary
and used in perfect innocence,
though the user succeeds, never
theless, in being thoroughly exas.
peratlng.
1t is common enough expe-
rience for player to condole with
himself for losing a trick, but
there are few, we imagine, who
concern themselves much with the
tricks which they might have lost,
but did't. In one of the open
games Snow, of Albany, had fig
ured out line of play for himself
in the event of one of the adversa-
ries playing as he expected him to.
But the adversary did the other
thing, and Snow was immensely
concerned to find. when the deal
was through, that if the game had
gone through as he had expected
his intended play would have
proved a loser. 1t was with an
air of perfect CONSERVATION that
he calculated:
Nv by, | NEARLY lost a trick!'

Knew Him Well and Thinks He
Had a Master Mind
NO RATS IN HIS GARRET
In the Opinion of the Man
aged His Business Affairs
With Ability.

Matthew Hogan was the first witness
to testify at this mornings session of the
Larkin hearing. He sal that he resided
in Jefferson county and was engaged in
mining. but spent his money in Butte.
He came to Butte in 1881. and a few years
later removed to Jefferson county; knew
James Larkin well, was a personal friend
of Larkin's. Whenever witness would
come to town he would be with Larkin.
Had a number of small business deals
with Larkin; had borrowed some money
from him. and Larkin had reciprocated.
He worked for Larkin in 1891, 1892 and
1898, doing assessment work on various
claims in the Nez Perez gulch.
Witness then described the work of the
various years in detail, as to dates and
work performed, n various CONVERSE
tons of minor import had with Larkin,
but tending to show that during these
years Larkin was attending to business
and looking after his interests person
ally.
Larkin told witness about the sale of
the Snohomish and Tramway to the
Butte & Boston company. Larkin said
that the Butte 4 Boston people were ION
the square," Later Larkin old witness
that he received $4,000 for the proper
ties. Robert Burton engineered the deal.
receiving about $14. COO for his trouble.
Later Burton lost this money.
What is your opinion of Larkin's
mental condition during the years 1892
and 1892 asked Mr.. Evans.
II considered that he was a man in the
possession of a master mind. l never
considered him weak mentally" replied
the witness.
What was your opinion as to his abil-
ity to transact business?"
The witness replied that he considered
Larkin a bright, shrewd man, ~abundantly
capable of attending to his affairs.
; Then began the cross-examination.
The witness said he was we'll acquaint-
ed with Larkin in the sos, but did very
little business for him during those
years. although he might have borrowed
some money from him; saw much of Lar
kin during 1890.
Then the witness went into details as
to his working for Larkin in Nez Perez
gulch.
Witness said he saw Larkin drink fire.
quently, but never saw him drunk.
You say that you saw Larkin on ar
average OF once a month and never saw
him drunk?' asked Mr.. Leonard.
well, l never saw him in a helpless
condition. replied the witness.
The attorney wanted to know of a man
must necessarily be in a helpless condi-
ton to be called drunk and the witness
replied that that was his idea of drunk
enness. Witness saw Larkin in the Cali
fOrnla brewery on one occasion when he
noticed that he was under the influence
of liquor.
Would you consider Larkin a hare
drinker" asked the attorney.
We'll, | can tell. How many schoon-
ers would, in your opinion, constitute d
hard %drinker?' asked the witness.
How many s%chooners would Larkin
take daily" asked Mr.. Leonard.
The witness replied that. having nc
memoranda, he could not say. He finally
admitted thatsle saw Larkin again under
the influence of liquor.

OF
VIM. G. COLE
A Well Known Pioneer Of the
NO CAUSE FOR THE DEED
The Deceased Was in Comfortable
Circumstances and His Domestic
Relations Were Pleasant
NO CAUSE FOR THE DEED

William G.. Cole. a we'll known Old
timer of Butte, committed suicide by
shooting yesterday evening. The news
shocked the dead mans many friends in
| the city, as he had everything which goes
to make life worth living.
The home of the deceased at NO. ao'
West Quartz street was the scene OF TINS
unfortunate tragedy, and the deed was
done during the absence of the family
from the house. About $50 o'clock Mrs.
Cole returned to her home, and a few mo-
| ments later a son, Harry Cole, arrived.
After an hour or more Mrs. Cole became
anxious of the whereabouts of her hus-
band as he usually spent much OF his time
at home. Harry Cole, thinking that his
father might be somewhere on the prem
ises, started upstairs into some vacant
rooms and found his father lying on the
floor, in a pool of blood, dead, with a
double barreled shot gun lying alongside
of him. The young man hurried below
to his mother, and broke the news to her
as gently as possible, and went with her
to the residence. of her son w. H. Cole,
and the brothers, after caring for their
mother, notified Coroner Julien.
Lit UOuy IdU uOI UeCll UlSluIUcu WlCA
Coroner Julien arrived at the scene OF
the tragedy, and was lying just as the
man had fallen after inficting the death
wound, face forward. A few feet away
was a double barreled shot gun, in one
of the chambers of which vas an empty
shell, and in a corner of the room were
found the shoes, which We're the only ar
ticles of wearing apparel that had been
removed. An examination of the body
disclosed the fact that the charge had
entered just above the heart and death
must have been instantaneous. From the
circumstances it was evident that the
deceased had placed the muzzle of the
gun against his breast, and pushed the
trigger down with his foot.
In a financial way the dead man was
in fairly comfortable circumstances. His
domestic relations were of the most
pleasant nature. His health was good,
and for two years he had drank nothing.
His family are at a loss to know what
prompted the deed.
The deceased was SO years of age and
was a native of London, England, but had
been a resident of the United States since
his youth. He came to Montana in 1856,
N had since made this his home. In
1880 he was master machinist for the
Anaconda company m later worked for
the Parrot company in the same capacity,
and about three years ago went with his
WlIe 10 IlNe Oh q IdICH III the Bitter ltOOC,
near Corvallis, returning to Butte last
November.
The deceased leaves one daughter, Mrs.
Louisa Boiler, and four sons, w. H. Cole,
with the Electric Light company; Harry
j. Cole, an employee Of the Parrot: Walter
r. Cole, who is looking after his fathers
ranch, and Frank J.. Cole, of Bridger.
The inquest will be held at Sherman's
undertaking rooms this evening. The
funeral will probably be held under the
auspices Of Ivanhoe lodge, knights Of
Pythias. of which the deceased was a
member.

A NEW TRACK.
MIR. MARCUS DAILY WILL CON-
STRUCT ONE AT NEW YORK.

1t is reported in the eastern press that
as soon as Richard Croker returns from
his travels abroad a magnificent new race
track will be built near New York.
According to the Tammany leader the
new course is already an established fact.
Croker Is deeply interested and is ready
to put up a fair share of the money need
ed to buy a and make the necessary
improvements. He will hardly be called
on to do much, though, as two men much
richer than Croker have pledged them
selves to support the scheme.
One of these is Marcus Daily, and the
other is w. c. Whitney. Mr.. Daily has ex-
pressed his Willingness to subscribe $500
900 to the fund for the proposed course,
and Mr.. Whitney also promised to give
the new course his financial support.
In this offer Marcus Daily Declare that
he would put in a half million dollars to
build a track somewhere on Long Island,
and would be satisfied to get five per cent
for his money. All earnings over five per
cent, the club operating the new track
will turn back to the racing FUND to be
distributed in purses and stakes. Messrs.
DAILY, Croker and others have talked over
all the details of the scheme n have al
ready selected a site on Long Island at
a point easily accessible.
The promoters of the scheme have in
mind a plan for cooperation ar,ong turf
men. While Mr.. DAILY is reaay to make
up any sum needed to construct and
equip the h~orse-owners' race track it is
expected most of the stock will be taken
by the turfmen, who have complained
long against the enormous profits earned
by the New York race tracks. One promi-
nent race track earned 5000. 900 in a single
season and others have earned nearly as
much. Croker. DAILY and their assistants
believe that a cooperative track will save
to hOrsemen the great sums distributed
in dividends to race track shareholders
and will force other race tracks to offer
more valuable prizes than have been hung
up in four years.

In response to an inquiry from the Sec
rotary of state, the attorney general has
passed upon a point hat has been dis
puted by some attorneys as to the new
law in regard to the fees for certificates
of Incorporation applying to benevolent
and charitable institutions h same as
to other corporations. The fee for filing
articles of Incorporation of companies
having a capitalization under $34, 900 is $50
under the new law. Some attorneys have
claimed that this could not apply to
benevolent organizations having no capt.
tai stock. The attorney general finds
that the law is very clear, that it applies
to all corporations filing certificates of
Incorporation whether they have any
capital stock or not. If benevolent soci-
cites should happen to lave a capital
stock and Of ar noun In excess of $34,-
900 they must pay the same pro rata for
the excess amount as other companies.

quite common just now:
WANTED-A position as second girl, by
an honest and capable young man.
WANTED-An able man. to cook and
wash for a private family.
WANTED-A position for general
housework, by a capable man.
Several hotels have put men in as
"chambermaids," and declare that they
are as we'll pleased that they will never
return to the old way. 1t is said that
many women and girls have quit cook
ing and housework tc go into lines OF
work usually performed by men. Hence
the exchange. The free state depart

as cooks. general housewOrkers, maids

people in need Of help take the men eag-
