They are telling a rather good story
Of Mr.. Bradley-N tin and his l.
counter with London cabby, which
is related In the Saturday Evening
Post. Tie cabby is easily the quick

piei Of the queens highways in this

when he begins to use bad language

as naturally as ~ duck takes to water,
and the streets swarm with cabbies
who have received university educa.
tions and have been in their day we'll
to-do and of good socialpositions. The
Londoner knows THAT he cannot score
Off cablJy under any circumstances,
and so leaves him to fight his never
ending battles with brother cabbies,
bus drivers and policemen. The 9th.
er morning Mr.. Bradley-Martin was
crossing Pail Mall near the Carlton
club, and cab coming down the
street at a good pace came within an

PRETORIA IN CONFUSION.
british Regard The War As Practically
over, Hut Bocrs SIN Resist,

Cape Town, June 3,--The telegraph
TO Pretoria is still open, but the town
is in great confusion. There has been
general outpouring, and among
those taking part In 1t are the foreign
legion. Six special trains left We'd
nesdny and one Of them Is reported to
have been deraied. No British refu-
gees have arrived.
Museru, Basutoand, June l.--Gen-
ernl Brubant's Horse have been the
subject of small captures at the hands
of the Beers. Lieutenant Rundle, with
twenty men, while searching Il farm
house in the Fricksburg district, were
captured. Two of the men were wound
! ed. Lieut. Lees and two men were
captured while communicating An
other patrol of the Border Horse, num-
bering twenty men, while pursuing Il
small party of Beers, was surrounded
and captured.
Count Gleichen sent thirteen men of
the Provincial horse under Lieuten-
ant Bowker with flag of truce to
Senekal to demand the surrender of
that place. The Beers captured the
entire party and, after robbing the
men of all except their clothing, sent
them to Urede, whence some Of them
managed to escape, Most of those
who succeeded in eluding their guards
were recaptured.
London, June 4..--London is TO-
day enjoying the Whitesun Monday,
bank holiday, undisturbed by deScrip-
tions of engagements between the
British and the Beers in South Africa,
and the public here is full Of conf
denCe OF Lord Roberts entering Pre-
toria before many hours have elapsed.
The latest theory of the day is that
Lord Roberts is moving his thanking
columns so as to envelop such of the
,Boer forces as may be in the neigh
borhood of Pretoria.
In the Orange river colony the
burghers are reported to be keeping

HE CAREFUL WITH YOUR CARDS.
II You would Avoid Trouble do Nos
Use Them Tor Memoranda.


Many have found to their cost that
II Is dangerous habit to write mem-
oranda of any kind on the back Of
ones card, especially II II Is put into
the purse or cardcase again. A socle-
ty woman called a fewdaysago ut the
mansion OF a certain great dame, and,
finding the latter out, deposited her
collection Of cards on the silver salyer
which the servant held for the pur-
pose. As she turned TO go down the
steps she suddenly felt a doubt as to
whether everything was right, and,
turning quickly, motioned to the foot
man TO reopen the door says the New
York Tribune.
Let me see my cards again." she
demanded to his surprise and, taking
them up, she found, as she had feared,
that the back OF one was covered with
q list for the butcher, headed: "For
Wednesdays dinner" function to
which the great dame in question had
been invited.
Even worse, however, was the mis-
take Of this kind made by another
careless caller who had scribbled a
list of visits she intended making, not
on the back Of her own card, but on
one belonging TO an acquaintance
which she picked up ait random from
collection in the receiver. One OF
the names on her memorandum was
that Of an exclusive dame who, as was
well known, decidedly objected to en-
larglng her visiting list, and, of course,
such was the irony of fate that it was
precisely on that naughty parsonage
that she left the casually scribbled
card Of her friend who had not the
pleasure Of the formers acquaintance.
Tt goes without saying that the card
was never heard from or that Mrs.
NJ. ever dared TO confess her mis-
take to the victim.
"How nice II is Of the great Mrs.
2. to call In person." remarked an
impecunious member Of one of the
old families who had felt quite fiat
tered one day on returning home to
find card Of the well known society
leader on her in ordinary fashion.
"Don't hatter Yourself" laughed her
friend, to whom the remark had been
addressed; "her secretary leaves all
her cards. Mrs. Us Of the old
school and likes to do everything in
the good old.rashioned way in contra
diction, ] am told to the new people
with whom the ancient shibboIeth
'noblesse oblige' is not recognized I
thought like You, she made personal
visits, but one day picked up on my
doorsteps her secretary's list, which
the footman had presumably dropped.
My name was on it, and opposite was
written Personal visit leave one
card with one corner turned down."

THE WOMEN PLAYED POKER.
All Sorts OF Things Were Put Up aAd

The story OF the big poker game
played on train between Chicago
and New York, and concluded In
Gotham, was a good one. IL was O
big game, too, but II was not q
marker TO one played In Omaha q
few days ago. The men engaged in
the Chlcago-New York game had
money to cremate, while the parties
in the Omaha game were rather
! short on cash. However, the lack
of cash did not prevent some lively
betting, and there are several
husbands who are wondering where
certain articles Of jewelry have gone
The game In question was played
In a private house, and the players
were seven married women, IL was
a small game TO start with cent
ante and 10 cents limit-but as Is
often the case the limit was raised
and the fun increased. Mrs, Blones
picked up set OF threes and as she
moved her ante to the center she
remarked that she never did like
these little antes,
Mrs. Kersmythe smiled as she
skinned the cards" and observed
that she held aces up, and remarked
that nothing would please her better
than TO take the roof OIL
well, | am not much Of a sport"
said Mrs, MacMac, but | am ready
to make the game little sitter"
Other participants were OF the
same opinion, so the limit was taken
of and the real fun began, II was
a case Of bluff, raise, come again and
raise some more, and when the sup
ply Of cash gave out little articles
OF jewelry began to appear on the
table, The trouble eliminated with
a jack pot IL was opened with
puir OF kings, and everybody stayed,
The opener showed five pennies, a
dime, a hat pin and a silver glove

player raised with quarter,
brooch and Nn exchange check hay

next player saw by showing in

ments and then het an empty but

the gold chain that anchored her
eyeglasses, and the seventh ended II
all with II turquoise ring.

chain was worth S3 and that every
player must give her SO in cash to
redeem their jeweIry, This is dis
puted by others, who insist that
they had no intention of betting 90
high. But No q holds ca 10 G
stuff and will not let go until she
gets tlio three plunks, and the others
say she is real mean thing and n
