A New Card Game.
New York Sun.

"Fifty-nine the game that for
months past has been such a boon to
the winter resorts, promises to take
the place of "grand" this winter.
" Fifty-nine" may be played by from
two to six persons. but four, playing
partners, make the best game. The
entire fifty.two cards are used, but
only six are dealt at q time. The
value of the cards is as follows: Ace,
l; king, 26; jack l; ten, 1; nine, 8;
fiye, 5; tray, Is; deuce, 1.-The sum of
which is fifty-nine. The player to the
right of the dealer has the first bid,
and, according to his hand, he may
wager all the way from one to fifty.
nine. He who makes the highest bid
names the trump and, discarding all
his cards but trumps, calls for what.
ever number fills out the hand TO six.
The other players do the same. He
who makes it leads, and he must lead
trumps. Trumping in is forbidden
until a suit is exhausted. Gains are
counted according to the value OF the
cards in each players tricks when a
hand is played out. In case OF a
" euchre" the loser subtracts from his
score whatever he bet. the winners
add to their score whatever they have
made. Two hundred or more is the
game. Unlike most card games, fifty
nine does not come from the West.
Its origin, indeed, is wrapped in mys.
terry. But it is a firet-class game and
it is undoubtedly in for long lease OF
popularity. The oftener you play it
the better you like it. There's more
in it than greets the ear.

Woman Dentist Goes to Cape Nome Clad in q
Mans Garb.

DR.. Lu Ella Cool is woman who
has made quite wide reputation as
dentist, traveller and explorer on the
Pacific coast. She has determined to
60 to the Cape Nome gold fields and
while there will wear male apparel.
She says this kind of a costume will
enable her to get along better in the
land OF gold and cold. She has already
worn the clothing, "just to get used
to it," during the early morning hours
while she was busy about her Hay
wards home which she calls "Casa
Esperanza." The first morning she
appeared among her various pets at
tired in the costume Of man the an
imals failed to recognize their mistress
and it was only by repeated coaxing
that. she could induce even pet dog
to approach her. DIR. Cool is confident
that she will do as we'll as any OF the
many people who are tempting fortune

Adventure is no new thing to this
woman dentist. Several years ago she
went to Central America to practice
her profession, and, though she could
not at the time of her arrival there
speak word of Spanish. she speedily
learned the language and prospered
financially. A revolution, however,
lost for her in forty-eight hours the
results of years labor. Counting
herself lucky to escape with her life
from land where she had lost her for
tune, been sufferer from yellow fever
and had several narrow escapes from

her residence at Haywards, where she
has since conducted a dental office.
Haywards, however, proved too slow
for her and when the Nome excitement
broke out she was not long in making
I'D her mind to forsake dentistry for
prospecting.

Manila, January 1.-THE presence Of
Archbishop Chapelle, apostolic delegate
to the Philippines is greatly stirring THE
Catholics. The Filipinos gained an i'm.
preston that he is joint agent of Pres.

the friars in their former power. One
cause is a statement the Dominfcans

told them he favored the retention OF
the brouheahoods, and President Nc
kinley shared his views, which We're
that IF the friars returned to their par

OF good order, and, therefore, Ameri

accuracy of these statements.
To quell the excitement, General Otis
consented to- the publication in local
newspapers of statement he made to
a delegation of Filipinos, as follows:
IF the church authctatfes assign the
friars torcuracies who are obnoxious to
the people they will mot be compelled
to accept them. Individual liberty is

Polygamist'
COMMITTEE OPPOSES HIM
The Minority Report Would Give Him a
Seat and Then Fire Him from the Halls
of 0ongress-He Declined to Tes-
tify for Himself.

| Washington, january 17.-The special
comomittee of THE house to investigate
the case of Brigham H. Roberts of Utah
| to-day reached a final conclusion On
| the polygamous Status of Roberts the
| comomittee unanimously agreed upon a
| formal Statement Of facts. On the ques-
| tfon of the procedure to be Adopted, the
committees divided. ALI the members
except Llttlefield of Maine and De Ar
mond of Missouri favored exclusion ait
the outset. Littlefield and De Almond
will make a minority report favorable
to seating Roberts on prima facie
rights and then expellHng him.
The statement of facts found by the
committee is AIS follows: 1--WE find that
B. H. Roberts wtats elected as repre-
sentative to the flfty-sxth congress
from the State of Utah, and was at the
date Of hLis election above the age of 25
years; THAT ne had been for more than
seven YEARS a naturalized citizen of the
United States, and was am inhlabitant
Of the state of Utah. We further find
THAT about 1878 he married Louisa
Smith, his first and lawful wife, with
whom he has ever since lived as such,
and who since their marriage has borne
him six children. About 1885 he married
as his plural wife Celia Dibble, with
whom he has ever since lived ais such,
and who, since such marriage, has
borne him six children, of which the
last were twins, born August Ii, 1897.
That some years after his said marriage
to Celia Dibble he contracted another
plural marriage with Margaret c.
Shipp, With whom he has eyer since
lived i'm habit and repute of marriage
Your committee is unable to fix the ex-
act date of this marriage. Tt does not
appear THAT he held her out ais his wife
before january 1, 1897, Or THAT before
THAT date she held him out as her hus-
band, or that before that date they
We're reputed to be husband and wife.
THAT these facts were generally known
in Utah and publicly charged against
him during his campaign for the cleo
tion and We're not denied by him. That
this testimony bearing on Et.hose facts
was taken in THE presence of Mr.. Rob
eTts and he fully cross examined the
witnesses, but declined to place him.

An Injunction Issued to Prevent Some

| Joliet, H. January 17.-Fears of ac-
tion on the part of ST. Louis to prevent
by injunction the raising of the gates

| drainage canal at Lockpor't caused a
| hurried conference between the sani-
! tary trustees and the special committee

| The object was to secure the necessary
permit from the commission This was
secured. The trustees and the commits
sioners left few hours latter for Lock-
port to open the gates. The hurried ac-
tion of the drainage trustees was the
result Of a movement ON the part Of ait
torneys in Chicago to secure an injunc-
tion from Federal Judge Kol1lSaat re-
straining the board from opening the
gates controlling the works ait Lock-
port. The trustees had a special train.
1t was expected the work of opening
the gates would mot consume more than
am hour. 1t is probable the gates will be
only PARTIALLY opened, as the work at
Joliet is not yet finished.

trustees to lift the gates controlling the
