StrangeTale of a Winner at a Faro
Bank.

Bank.
THE other day when I was in Phi
ladelphia," said a New York man, d" l
was told how one of their millionaires,
Peter A. B. Widener, walked the streets
of Philadelphia all night once with $IO,-
900 in his pocket, wondering how he
was going to invest it so as to double
it. Now, I'll tell you a story of an
other man who walked all night.
"a judge of a county court in the up
per end of my state came to town to
play faro. His name was Bertram. He
never played cards at home, but he
used to come to my town and go up
against it for week at a stretch. He
was usually a winner.
THE night 1 have in mind Judge Ber-
tram met an old friend who had been
running down at the heel financially
until he looked like a cripple. He fres-
coed his story up pretty well to the
judge, who was a peculiar combination.
When Bertram was a winner at faro
he would divide his pile with any friend
but he would let the same friend starVe
before he would help him until he had
shaken the bank, as he put it when he
won. His unfortunate friend told him
he was going to jump into the river
| that night unless he got some help. The
building that stood facing the river.
Bertram said to the rundown man:
"'You go down on the leVee and walk
up and down until l give you a signal
that have made a winning. If / shake
the bank, you'll get some of the dust. If
you don't see me signal jump into the
river You are no good without money
anyway.
1T was a bargain and they separated
fvia IN
win or die. All night the judge won
and lost alternately. Sometimes he
had stacks of reds and blues so high
| that they cast a shadow on the dealers
box; sometimes he had few measley
whites on a card which looked like a
poor relative.
Meantime the man on the river front
was walking, looking at the dark flow
of the water like the poor unfortunate
| in Hoods Bridge or Sighs,' anon CLAN
cling up at the windows in the gambling
| room. A terrific thunderstorm broke
| over the town and still the man walk
ed along the river front until he was
drenched to the marrow in his SILVER
ing bones.
I'm the gray of the morning, with
sheets Of rain still falling upon the
scene, Judge Bertram left the game a
$40, 900 winner, and walked down to the
river front, where his impecunious
| friend was shiVering.
81 expected to find you in the river,
said the judge. 1 didn't signal be-
cause l made it all in heap.
"'If it hadn't been for the rain said
his friend, L might have jumped, but
l said to myself. What's the use; you
are already wet through, and if the
rain keeps on you'll drown on land
1.-The judge called a hack and the
two drove to the best hotel in town and

gether. A year later they owned one of
the biggest cattle ranches in Colorado.

was the last time his friend ever did

TREASURE HUNTER DEAD.

SEATTLE (Wash), October 3D.
Captain Coogan of San Francisco, one
of the best-known marine men on the
Pacific Coast, was drowned recently off
Diomedes Islands during a severe
storm. He was maxine his way back
to San Francisco on the schooner No-
lante, broken-hearted and penniless,
when the accident occurred Swept
away by an immense wave he disap-
peared from sight and was never seen
again. His son was an eyewitness to
the tragedy and stood wringing his
hands and crying out, My pood dad,
my poor dad, l shall never see him
again"
Owing to the severity of the storm it
was. impossible for the boat TO lay tc
and try to pick the old man up.
Captain Coogan was about 10 years
old and had lived on the Pacific Coast
all his life. In recent years he has been
trying to locate a ledge of fabulous
wealth. His efforts proved futile and
his resources were gradually exhaust
ed. With failure staring him in the
face he was finally compelled to give
up and start for his home in San Fran
cisco on the little schooner Nolante.
His belief that the sea would claim
its own came true.

KING EDWARDS
ROYAL PROGRESS
LUNCHEON AT THE GUILD HALL
THE KING AND NINE. ALBANI
SING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.

LONDON, oct. 25.-King Edward and
Queen Alexandra started on the royal
progress toward the city shortly after
noon today in somewhat dull weather.
The rain, however, kept off and the
temperature was sufficiently mild to
make the day enjoyable outside
buckingham Palace great crowd had
been waiting for hours, watching the
arrivals and departures ana the form
ing up of the procession. The brillian-
Cy of the latter was greatly detracted
from by the fact that all the troops
were Cluaked.
The only touch of color was from the
lace pennants Of the Lancers and the
brass helmets of the heavy cavalry.
The khaki painted guns of the artillery
and naval gun OF the same hue add
ed to the general note of sombrehess.
The roofs of houses near the palace
and other points of vantage giving a
view Of the picturesque panorama in
Green Park ana the historic Mail were
well filled with spectators, whose cheer
ing announced to the less privileged
public the starting of the state carriage
with their Majesties.
The procession formed up outside the
gate ana had already moved off when
the first carriages containing royal per-
sonages and members of the household
emerged therefrom. The veteran Duke
of Cambridge, who was in a carriage
with Princess Victoria, came in for
slight cheering, but Lord Roberts and
his staff passed almost unnoticed.
At the Mansion House most of the
procession stopped, their Majesties
from there being accompanied only by
the sovereigns escort and the Prince
of Wales, the Duke of COnnaught and
other princes, equerries and aides, &c
Guild Hall, where they arrived without
any extraordinary incident.
The most interesting feature of the
royal progress up to this point was the
Kings reply to the address of the
London County Council on Trafalgar
Square. The Boer generals occupied
prominent seats in the center of the
County Council stand, immediate ly
facing the King. His Majesty's reply
was clearly audible to all in the Vici-
nifty
The interior of the great Guild Hall
presented a brilliant scene. 1t was fill
ed with members of the royal family
and diplomats, officers and officials, all
in full uniform with their breasts biaz-
ing with orders.
The Kings reply to the address in
the Guild Hall was much on the same
lines as his speech at Trafalgar square.
After luncheon the common crier
called for a toast to his Majesty.
The King and Nine. Albani, stationed
in one of the galleries, sang the nation
al anthem, in which the whole compa.
joined.

Admiral Beckley occupied the center
of the stage In fact he was the only
one to make an address He spoke to
the point and he spoke with accustom-
ed eloquence. Fully 1000 people were
present and cheered the name of Kuhio
and the words of Beckley to the echo.
Beckley opened with a short prayer
in Hawaiian. The Hilo band was in
attendance. The gathering was held at
the Hilo Hotel grounds. Beckley made
two speeches of 45 minutes duration,
