A COCKROACH GAME.
(New York Press.


Once in a while when the com
muting card players get going too
swift, said a conductor on the New
Jersey Central, somebody makes a
howl to tie officials Of the line and
we have TO slow down on all games
until the storm blows over. The
men in the smoker DON t like it, but
they have only themselves to blame.
But if they don't play cards they
gamble, with something else. I've
seen them bet on the number Of pas
sengers that would get out of the car
at the next station and on the num-
Der that would get on.
But my greater experience in
that line was when | was on the
Union Pacific One day the order
was handed out to stop all card
playing on the trains. Some Of the
fellows were hopping mad, but the
Presidents order went One evening
four fellows got on with cigar box
and asked the brakeman to turn over
seat so that they could sit knees
together. In the top of the cigar box
near the center, was asmall hole In
side the box was cockroach. The
men took four Jumps of sugar and
put one lump on each of the four
corners of the box and began to bet
on which lump the cockroach would
tackle first when he came out of the
hole.
"Well, sir, everybody in the ear
just hunehed around those men. Bets
flew thick and fast not only among
the men who were playing, but
among the bystanders. When Mr..
Cockroach came out he seemed a lit
tie bit uncertain Then he put out
his feelers and suddenly made dive
for one corner of the box There
was a howl Of delight among the men
who had backed that particular cor
ner. Then the men put him back IN
the box and made him do it all over
again
"'That game was played five times
in forty mile run, and 5000 changed
hands on the result.

Pittsburger. q can tell you. Old
John Insley Blair. Blair died about
four years ago, leaving a fortune of
some $10O,O0O0O0 to be wrangled for.
At one time he was the individual
owner of more miles of railroad than
any other person in the world. In
hopes of easing his conscience he be-
gan tobuild churches in Goddess COM
munities, and kept at it until about
I125 houses of worship stood in his
name, all with spires aspiring to hea-
ven. He also built a few academies
and colleges Carnegie was warm
friend and earnest admirer of Blair.
He took sudden notion to quash his
own qualms. Among his first offer
inos on the atonement altar was a
church organ. He said jokingly that
he could stand for the utterances of
the organ pipes, but not for those of
the preachers The gift of that first
organ was followed by hundreds of
others enough to keep one factory
busy working overtime. =
It is not generally known that Mr..
Carnegie was the third man wounded
on the Union side in the Civil War.
He was at The time in charge Of the
eastern military railroads and tele-
