The Whist Party.
The bachelors' rooms, where about
twenty young men thoroughly enjoyed
themselyes last night at whist, was, truly
a sepnee of many amusing features.
"The bachelors" provided every con
venience for their guests, and a mgrc
social evening could not hav been im
agined. The largest number of tricks
made during the evening on one deal,
whs seven, which were taken in by Messrs.
Witcher and Frank Morgan.
No table afforded as much amusement
during the evening as that held down by
two Dutch and two Irishmen. The
Dutch would reveal their bauds to each
other, much to the dissatisfaction of the
Irishmen, their opponents.
Such expressions as the" following
passed between the Dutch:
"Wjis Ut truuif, (what is trump) IK-Sn-rit-h?"
' Eikstvin, (diamonds) Louie."
"lleiurieh, bus due der kaiser, Willi
clin (tleury, have you. got the king)?
- "G.jus savis. (sure tiling) Loui-."
' Yutz is tie dome ouch gur, (now l!u
:pjvt u is good) Louie."
"Vdz xpiel du m il anslt-ndicii, (no .r
play decent) Ilt-inrich."
"Spiel tnal de ase funi shippen (play
the ace of spades)."
"Yetz spiel ich der kaiser Welhelm,
(now rii play the king) Louie."
"Hob due de dome (have you got the
queen) Louie?"
"Xein, ich habe ein-Jdeine trumf (no,
but I've got trump,) Ileinrich."
" Wer habe sex gemacht met das ist
grote ganuch (We've made six, Louie,
that's good enough .
The two Irishmen named "Ox" and
"Beckie" also worked in their ccebbrish.
"Say, Ox, let us don't play wid suh part
ners. "All right lieckie."
