A Mexicnn Gnmbler.

Don Felipe Martel, the famous GAM
bling house proprietor of the City Of
Mexico, had made a fortune in the
business before the government decid-
ed to abolish gambling houses by levy
ing on them a license tax of $1,000 n
day. one by one the gambling houses
closed, and when the field was clear
Don Felipe Martel approached the au-
thorites with $1,000 in cash and de-
manded a days license. In a few
hours his place was thronged. At a
single stroke he had won the patronage
of Mexico, and his doors have never
been closed since. The daily outlay of
1000 is not missed from the daily
revenue of thousands. His strong re-
ligIous tendencies are so well known
that nobody was surprised when nc
built in the village of San Angel q
church that cost more than $4,000
The poor people of the vicinity, and
many of the rich as well, have come tC
regard him as a sort of fairy prince
His own style of living encourages this
belief. The Martel mansion in the
City of Mexico is magnificent affair
constantly filled with guests. A curl
GUS feature is that it contains 40 win
dows-the number of cards in the Mex
lean deck.

Burgundy Roses.

But few f1ower-lovers of the present
generation are acquainted with the
lovely rose, which was in everybody's
flower garden fifty years ago. The
bush seldom grows over fifteen inches
in height; the foliage is OF dark green
color and thickly set. In the blossom
ing season every plant, though not
more than three inches tall, will be
literally covered with roses of velvety
crimson so double as to merit the
title "Thousand-leafedR Rose" its COM
mon name. By a house gray with
wears which was once the home of the
grandfather and father of the late ex-
Governor Samuel ]. Tilden, but now
deserted home, we dug up the few roots
which had survived the trampling OF
cattle. For several seasons the rose
slugs destroyed the beauty of the
leaves Last year we sprinkled the
bushes as soon as the buds appeared
with white tobacco, and as the result
until the late autumn the plants were
perfect in beauty.
