George LatOur. who in the sos
snrned the title of prince OF gamblers.
returned to his old haunts In Cali
fornia the other day. after spending
twenty years in a Mexican prison. He
served part of his life sentence fer a
crime that he never committed, and
his release came years after he had
given up all hope of ever gaining his
freedom.
When gold was plentiful II the early
days OF the mining excitement, Latour
was one of the best-known figures on
the coast. Tall. handsome, and fas-
tfdious in dress he was the best type
OF the man whose goddess is chance.
There were good profits to be made in
the times when the stakes were high.
and Latour earned the reputation of
being honest. Everyone gambled and
there was no stigma attached to his
business. He became the friend of all
the prominent men on the coast. He
spent his money like prince and for
ten years he prospcred according to the
standards OF the mining camps. where
all is more or less question of luck.
Then times changed and Latour
wandered over the border through Ne
vada, New Mexico, Arizona. and thence
down into Old Mexico. He tired OF

ed by lot Of cheats of the sure
thing" variety. The percentages
dropped and the chances for great
profits grew smaller and smaller. The
position of the gambler in society WAS
not what 1t had been. The mining
kings were inclined to give him the
cold shoulder. So George Latour de-
termined to give up the delights and
hazards of the green cloth and become
q ranchero.
In Mexico he entered into partner
ship with Don Guadalupe Ascarate.
and secured a half interest In one OF
the largest and finest ranges In all the
republic. He built magnificent ha-
cienda. He gave fetes and balls. Ev-
erywhere he was lavish and princely.
But always he had an eye to business.
No herds were as carefully watched
and tended as his. No cattle brought
so good a price. So he made money
for himself and Don Guadalupe.
Fired IN UnIucky Shot
When he was just in the prime Of
life and in the fun enjoyment of pros

crane that he happened to notice
standing on the edge of 4 marsh.

cartridge fastened upon him the sus-

Ii is the edict OF his physicians. A
short time ago he returned from TIP
abroad and under the stress OF an at
tack OF indigestion went TO several
eminent specialists. They told him Il
few things he must not do and also
told him few things he nnst do. Here
is the list;
He must NOT bother his head about
the Standard oil Company. which Is
paying s4S.O00,O0 In dividends this
year. To say nothing OF the profits from
IT'S 10 great banks and trust com
panles. He mustn't sit up late, he
mustn't smoke. he mustn't drink any
thing but skinned milk and mineral
waters, he mastn't eat anything but

long walk every day whether he feels
like ii or not: hc must wear 4 flannel

CInver Seed.

A communication from the Vermont
Experiment Station says that clover
seed absolutely pure Is an unknown
article in the market. In buying clover
seed it is just question of how much
impurity there shall be and what the
impurity is. 1t is not necessary to
have great quantity OF foreign mat
ter in order to have very undesirable
mixture. II there is half ounce OF
seed OF some bad weed In bushel of
clover seed it may be enough to infest
the farm for years. Vermont clover
seed is probably no worse than any
other; and it is better to SOW poor
seed than not to grow within
certain limits-but in many cases the
goods offered on the general market
may as well be subjected to an ex-
animation.
The Vermont ExpeT.men Station
made a number of these exam nations
last year Twenty samples OF red
cloYer seed showed an average impur.
ity OF g per cent by weight Twelve
scapils G. aisike clover showed an
average impurity of 3.2 per cent. BY
cGtual count Ia small samples the
