HINDOOS GREAT GAMBLERS.

Thcy Even Bet Property on Raceu
and Steal to Recoup Losses.
Most of us are familiar with the
old joke which asserts that the best
way to find the winner of a horse race
is to cut out a list of the runners, get
a pin, shut ones eyes,, stab at the
anne and put your money on the
horse whose name is first pricked.
The native of India has an equally
amusing method. He wagers his
money according to the coloats worn
by the jockeys and takes no heed of
the merits Of the horses; OR he will
back a horse ridden by his %favorite
jockey, no matter whether the animal
is a rank outsider or not.
His ideas Of gambling, in fact, are
distinctly novel. Some of the more
wealthy Indians form rings and back
every horse in the race. thus gaining
the satisfaction Of getting a winner
every time. It IS really only Of late
years that the native Of India has be-
come a habitual gambler on the turf,
and nowadays the bulk of the betting
at the various racing centers in India

ties are becoming somewhat concerned
about the growth of the betting which
takes place among Indian natives, 1t
being asserted that as many as 8 laos
of rupees (a,out $500. 0O0) is lost
and won in the course of a season.
1.-The ignorant masses have not a
great deal of actual money to wager,
hr1t en- ba61y bitten are many of them
with the craze for betting at race
meetings that they will frequently
wager what little property they pos
sess on a horse and if they lose they
simply replace their loss by stealing
a neighbor's goods. The consequence
is that when the racing season comes
around the police are kept very busy
dealing with cases of petit larceny and
other crimes involving loss of prop

what pride he held out the crooked
little body toward me. nOr the love-
light that transferred the hard face
as he said: Now, isn't she a bonnie,
bonnie bairn?' Somehow, one felt
that in the rough furnace man the
world had lost a saint.
With the summer came the news
that Bob of the Furnace had lost his
little lass and gone to the bad again.
For a full month he was absent from
his work, and only when word was
sent that his place was about to be
filled did he return. With his return
came also a return of the old tenn
per, the snarl reappeared, and it came
to be said that Bob had come back
and brought t greater part O. ovid
Nick in t. inside O. him"
But our opinions were to undergo
another change, and this is how it
came about: AT the farther end Of
the shed where Bob worked a deep pit
had been eXcayated in the floor. Into
this pit the large castings were craned,
the molds knocked apart and the thing
left to cool at leisure. Needless to
say, an intense heat vas given off in
the process. Exactly how the accident
happened may never be known, but
one night one Of the laborers slipped
and fell into the pit, in which a cast.
ing had lust been lowered. Amid the
uproar that ensued one of the men
flung a pail of water upon the hot
metal. A report like a gun followed,
and it was this report which brought
us pellmell out of the office to know
what had happened. and we were just
in time to see an almost naked and
blistered figure climb out Of the pit
bearing another naked and blistered
figure in its arms. 1t was Bob, the
furnace man, who had risked his life
to save his mate.
Swathed from head to foot, the res
cuer and the rescued lay side by side
in the-Quiet hospital ward. In one OF
the intervals of fearful pain the res
cued man half turned toward the 9TH
er bed and spake.
Bob, owd lad" he whispered, "ye're
a brave Una brave 'un." A faint
hoarse reply came from the heap of
cotton wool on the other bed.
"If yer ses another word about It
I'll smash yer head when l gets on
my legs again"
And these were the last words that
Bob of the Furnace ever spoke.-Lon-

Public opinion is still so strongly

DEADLY SNAKES IN CARGO.


and Csbras Brought to Bose
ton from Calcutta.
, Deadly cobras and pythons in heavy
wooden boxes filed the bridge deck Of
the Hansa steamship Hohenfels, which
came into port from India and Ceylon
and went to the Mystic wharf, the
Boston Globe says. The reptiles were
taken on board at Calcutta, having
been brought from the interior of In
dia at great expense.
The cobras are the most deadly
snake in India and a human being bit
ten by one of them would die with
in three minutes. There were eight
cobras on board when the steamer
sailed and also twenty-seven pythons.
One cobra died and the body was
thrown overheard. 1t had no sooner
struck the water than 1t was swal-
lowed by a monster shark.
The pythons cas- about twenty
five feet in length, and, while their
bite is not deadly, they would crush
a person to death in the folds Of their
long bodies.
Capt. II. Muller, the commander OF
the steamer, said the snakes had not
been fed since they left India. Twice
each week a bucket Of water is thrown
on them, and this is all that Is re-
CURED to keep them alive. The cap
tain said that they go without food
for six months at a stretch. The
boxes are covered with a wire netting
to prevent the snakes from escaping.
The Lascar members of the crew have
a wholesome respect for the reptiles
and they refuse to go on the bridge
deck on which the boxes are carried.
