"HOW'S THE KITTY?"
Not the Animal, But the Conductors Inquiry of the Sunday Card Players.

Not the Animal, But the Conductors
 Inquiry of the Sunday Card Players.
 A general order issued to conductors of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad, which prohibits card playing of any. kind on the trains on Sunday, has raised an indignant storm of protest on the part of large num- Der of the regular patrons of the road. The order, which was issued from the main offices at New Haven, does not apply to the playing of cards on week days, but appears to be a slap at the one town to another on the New Haven road on Sundays.
 Complaints have been made to the company's offices in New Haven about the members of theatrical troupes who offend certain passengers on the Sab bath by card playing. According to some of the complaints, the games played are hearts, euchre and some times they even go so far as to indulge 1 in a game of draw poker, using real chips. The limit in the latter game is ! usually twenty-five cents, but it is said that an occasional game with the | limit as high as two dollars has been played. .
 | Heretofore the officers of the road ! never interfered in quiet little l game" as long as no cash was exhibi- | ted, but within the last couple of months passengers who come to the city l LlA. churches here have been interrupted in the perusal of their Sunday papers by the sound of some one shouting at the top of his voice: ''Ill make it fifty cents to play" or If lose this thirty l five cents I'm going to quit" This greatly disturbed the peace of mind of the residents of the good old New Eng land towns who travelled all the way to New York city on Sunday mornings to worship. The very idea that gambling on the Sabbath was carried on in the same cars that brought them to their respective churches shocked them so much that they complained to the off, cers of the road.
 l At first little attention was apparent | ly paid to the complaints, but after a while they became so frequent that an , investigation was ordered. The conduc- 1 tors and the brakemen were instructed to keep sharp lookout for gambling of any kind and to break up any card game where it appeared that money was at stake. But the conductors and brakemen saw nothing and heard noth- ing that might lead one to believe that any playing for stakes was being car ried on. There were poker games to be sure, but they were only for fun and l he chips were valueless. NotWth- standing the latter fact, in almost eve " game kitty was kept, and some persons declare that the conductors in- quiries were directed to this more thon to the game itself. Every time con- ductor passed through a car where one of these innocent games was in pro-
 gress he would say to the players:
 Remember, gentlemen, I told you that
 you cant play for money" Then in an
 undertone he would mutter something that sounded like Flows the kitty get
 ting along?" And upon receiving a
 nod from the players which appeared to mean that the kitty was increas- | ing in size he would pass on to the next
 car smiling good-naturedly.
 Besides this, it is said, the conductors

question, "Why do we grow oid?' q

In the open air, we are poisoned by mi
