STRANGE POKER DEAL.

lFrom Philadelphia Evening Telegra phi
Four well known gentlemen sat down
to a game of poker several days ago
at a club which is only two or three
minutes walk from this Office. They
agreed to play with the joker In the
deck so as to add excitement to the
game. For the benefit Of the unini-
tiated it may be stated that the joker
in a poker game can be counted as any
card in the deck. That is. if you are
drawing for a straight, a flush, a full
house, or four of kind. or in fact for
any hand, and you are dealt the joker,
you can use it to fill in lust as If you
had drawn the desired card.
The four gentlemen in question pro-
duced a new deck Of cards. and on the
second deal. after the draw, three of
them dropped. out; the fourth, whom we
will call Mr. Long, had drawn four
cards to the joker. He was lucky
enough to draw the seven, eight, nine
and ten of hearts, and by calling the
joker the jack of hearts he had a jack
high straight flush. Poker players and
those who understand the game need
not be told how good this hand is and
to what use it can be put in a big
game. Unfortunately, however, for Mr..
Long, no one stayed with him and he
was about to throw away his cards in
disgust, when the gentleman on his left,
whom we will call Mr.. Short. stopped
him. Mr.. Short, who acted as the Off
ciaI coroner of the game, had performed
a post norton. While Mr. Long had
looked sorrowfully at his good hand Mr..
Short had picked I'D the five top cards
from the discards, and to his astonisn-
ment he found that they were the
deuce, tray. four, five and six of hearts.
as good a straight flush as can be de-
sired.
Mr. Long, said Mr.. Short the coron-
eT., 4 would like to make a small bet
on the hand I just picked up"
you're the man I've been looking
for promptly replied Mr.. Long, as Wis
ions of raking in the long green appear
ed before him.
@Ill bet you $4,000 I have a better
hand than you" The mention of this
sum came as a surprise to Mr. Short
and the latter answered that 800 was
all ne would wager. There was some
good-natured bantering and finally the
bet rose to $3.50. Mr.. Long then showed
his hand, and when Mr.. Short saw the
jack-high straight-flush of hearts he
came near being a subject for a real
coroner.
It was the strangest coincidence of
hands that these gentlemen ever en-
countered, and it can only be explained
by the fact that the cards had only been
shuff1ed once and therefore had not been
fully mixed

cent. It should be pointed out, however,
that as British mining is very largely
on the long-Wau system. the 81 ma
chimes include a large number of long
wall and heading machines, while the
1907 machines in America include 1850 of
the pneumatic persuasive type which is
of course much smaller and cheaper
machine. Still, in the states there were
l,50s chain breast machines and As long
wall machines, and the increase in the
percentage of coal mining by machinery
IN West Virginia was from 9.27 per cent
in 1883 to 1909 per cent in 1900 The cor
responding increase for Pennsylvania
considering the bituminous coal only
was % 81 per cent to 81. s. per cent.-A- 5.

WHY DO BIRDS MIGRATE?

rFTrom the Woman's Home Companion
Speaking of birds coming back from
the south, let me explain, so far as
can, where they have been, why they
went, and why they take the trouble to
come all the way back again. Many
thousands of years ago birds didn't
migrate at all. There was no occasion
for them to do so. All the northern
countries, even Greenland and the most
northern parts of Europe, We're warm
the year round, and the birds and other
animals which lived there found every
thing they needed close at hand. Grad
ualy there began a period known as
the Ice Period" when a large part
of the northern counties became ex-
tremely cold, and were buried under the
ice. The birds which lived in these
countries could not stand the severe
change, SO the sensible ones all went
south, and made the best of it. But
they never quite forgot their northern
homes, and long after, when the great
ice cap melted away, and when the
northern countries became warm again,
the descendants of the birds. which were
driven out by the cold, went back to
their own country. There they found
plenty of food, so they stayed and made
their nests and laid their eggs.
But alas! the climate was no longer
as it used to be-mild and warm the
whole year round. It was divided into
seasons, and the warm summer was fol-
lowed by a cold winter They had
scarcely reared their young before they
found that the air was beginning to get
cold again, so as soon as the little ones
were strong enough to stand the long
journey they all flew away to the south.
But they never forget where their real
homes are. Every spring there comes
over them a great longing to go back
and make their nests where they them
selves were born. They cannot resist
that longing No matter where they
may be-down in the gulf states, in the
West Indian islands, or perhaps thou
sands of miles away in the southern
part of South Anerica-back they
come by tens of thousands, and by mill
lions, to their old homes in the north.

Americas Enormous Coal Measures.

The very first feature that attracts the
attention of the European visitor is the
enormous difference in the total area of
the coal fields of America and Great Bri-
tain, namely 222, 500 and 5000 square miles
respectively, and also the fact that nearly
all of the British ones have been worked
for so very much longer period The
result of this is that most of the thick
seams and those nearest the surface have
been worked out: and while 10-fOOt and II
foot seams are not unknown, nevertheless
they are exceptional, and seams as small
as Il and Is inches are being worked In
America on the other hand the coal fields
are practically untouched. At present only
the thick and upper seams are being work
ed. and these TO a large extent with per
maps little thought for future generations
of mining engineers. Another very great
difference between the coal fields of the
two countries is that in Great Britain
faults are frequent and great, and the coal
IS found in various parts at almost all
conceivable angles. In the Lancashire coal
field, for example. the seams dip II to 80
per cent In America. on the other hand
I did not meet with single instance of
fault, and only with one man who said he
had friend who had seen one while the
greatest dip I met with was about 5 per
cent.-A. s. z. Aczernann in the Engi-
neering Magazine for June.

The Use Of Coal Mining Machines

Actual figures referring to the use Of
coal-cutting machines IN the two coun-
tries show that 81 such machines were
in use in Great Britain in 1900, whereas
in America there were 1901 or about 123&
times the number. this figure correspond
ing approximately with the ratio Of the
percentages cut by machines in the. two
countries, namely II per cent and % per
