Toledo tllade. Wo had on board , na a matter ot course , the betting young man from Chicago. , No steamer ever sailed that did not have this young fellow aboard and there is enough of them to last the Atlantic for n great many years. Ho . know everything that everybody thinks they know , but do not , and his delight ' was to propound a iueiyt and then , when you had answered it , to very coolly and cxaspcratingly re mark. "Bet ycr bottle of wine you'ro ' wrong. " The matter would bo so aimplo , nnd one of so common repute , that immediately orm mediately you accepted the wager , only to find that in some minute par ticular you were wrong , and that the knowing youth had won. For instance : ' "Thompson , do you know how1 many states there nro in thu union j" Now , any citkon of the United States who votes , and is eligible to the presidency , ought to know how many states there are in his beloved coun try without thinking , but how many can say , utf-hand V Ami so poor , Thompson answered : "What a question ! Of course I know. " " Hut yer bottle yo don't. " "Done. " " " "There arc- And then Thompson would find himself figuring the very important problem as to whether Colorado had been admitted , and Nevada and Oregon gen , and ho would decide that one had and the other hadn't , and finally state the number , with great certainty that it was wrong. The Chicago man's crowning bet oc curred the lost day out. The smoking- room was tolerably full , as wcro the occupants , and everybody was bored , as ! everybody is on the last day. The Chicago man had been silent for an hour , when suddenly ho broke out : "Gentlemen " " Oh , no more bets , " was the excla mation of the cntifo party. "Give us a rest. " "I don't want to bet , but I can show you something curious. " "Well ? " " I say it and mean it. I can drink a glass of water without it's goinc down my throat. " "And get it into your stomach ! " "Certainly. " Tlicro was a silence of considerable more than a minute. Every man in the room had been victimized by this gatherer of trifles , and there was a general disposition to get the better of him in some way if possible. Hero was the opportunity. How could a man get a glass of water into his sto mach without it going down his throat ? Impossible ! And so the usual bottle of wine was wagered , and the Chicago man proceeded to accomplish the sup posed impossible feat. It was very easily done. All ho did was to stand upon liia head on the scat that runs around the room and swallows n glass of water. It wont to his stomach , but it did not go down his throat. It went up his throat. And BO his last tri ' : umph was greater than all his previous ones , for every man in the room had been eager to accept his wager. From that time out had ho offered to wager that lie would swallow his own huad ho would have cot no takers. THE YOUNG -ALAN FROM OSIIKOSII. Among the passengers was a young man from Oshkosh , Wis. , named Tribbotts. Ho was an excellent young man of his kind , and ho very soon ac quired the reputation , which lie dc- seivod , of being the best poker player on the ship. Ho was uneasy till a game was organized in the morning , and ho growled ferociously when the liphts were turned down at 12 at night. Ho was impatient with slow players , because , as he said , all the time they wasted was BO much loss to him. Ho could drink more Scotch whisky than any ono on the ship , and ho was the pet of the entire'crow , for his hand was always in his pocket. Ho ruined the rest of the passengers by his reek- lens liberality. His father was a rich Wisconsin farmer and this was his first experience in travel. What time ho could spare from poker nnd liia meals was devoted to writing a letter to his mother , for whom the scapegrace did seem to have n great dual of respect nnd a considerable amount of lovo. His letter was fm- ishpd the day before wo madoQueons- town , BO that ho could mail it from thoro. Ho read it to mo. The sen tences in parenthesis were his com ments : ON BOARD THE CITY OP RICHMOND , NKAit QuEENhTOWN , May 23 , 1881. DKAII MOTIIEU : While thcroisov6ry- thing to interest ono from the interior in n sen voyage , I confess that I have not enjoyed the passage at all , I have no heart for it , for my mind is coijtin- ually on you and my homo in the far west. (1'ou ( see it will please the old lady to know I am thinking of her all the time , Didn't I scoop in that jack pot nicely last evening ? Hadn't n thing in my hand , and Filkins actually opened it with three deuces. ) The ship is ono of the strongest and best on the ocean , and is commanded and manned by the beat Bailers on the sen. The passengers are all good , serious nooplo , with perhaps ono exception. There is ono young man from Now York of dissolute habits , who has a. bottle of whisky in his room , and who actually tried to tempt mo to play cards with him. But ho is known and avoided by the entire company. _ Wo have regular services in the grand saloon every morning , and oc- casioiwl meetings for the vocal exer cises and conversation at other hours. I have just como from ono at which "You are not going to send this in fernal aggregation of lies to your mother , are you ? " I asked. "Why not ! She don't know any bettor , and it will make her feel good. I have my opinion of a man who won't give his old mother a pleasure when ho can just as well as not. I will , you bet , " "But such atrocious lies ! " "I'll change that. I , can stand lies of that kind \vhun they are told in so coed a cause. I Jove my mother , BOI do , Lot's see where was I ? Oh , yes. " I have just come from ono at which the discuuiod was mostly on the pro gress of missions in the far west. ( The ; old lady is treasurer of a society for the conversion of the Apaches , or some other tribe. ) Just now the sailors are having a log. which they do to as certain the speed the ship U making. Mr. Inman , the owner of this ship , is a very wealthy man , and ho has every thing of the best. Ho furnished his vessel with nothing but blnck-walnut logs to heave , while the others use pine or poplar. Capt. Lcitch is n very humane man , and' , never uses profane language to this crow. On the other ships the men who go aloft are compelled to climb tarred-ropo ladders , but Capt. Loitch has passenger-elevators rigged to the masts ; such aa you saw in the Palmer House in Chicnuo , m which they sit' comfortably , and are hoisted up by a steam-engine. . "Great heavens. You arc not sure ly going to send that1' ? "Why not ? What is an old lady in silver ! spectacles on a farm thirty miles from any water more than a well go ing to know about a steamer ? I must write ! her something , for she persuad ed the old gentleman to lot mo take the , ! trip. 1 ain't ' ungrateful , I ain't. I'll give her ono good letter , anyhow. Why , by the way you talk 1 should suppose ' you never had a mother , and if you had , that you didn't know how to treat her. I hate a man who don't love his mother and isn't willing to sacrifice himself for her. All I can do for her now is to write to her , and write such letters as will interest her , and . . the dear old girl is going to get them , if the pen and ink hold out , and . they nro going to bo good ones , too. " I have got to bo a good deal of n sailor , and if it wcro not fur leaving you , wcieh I couldn't do , I believe I should take ono of these ships myself , I know all about starboard anil port , port used to bo the larboard , and I can tell the stern from the bow. On n ship you don't say " 1 will go down-stairs " but "I will - , you say go below. " Ono would think that I had been born on the sen , nnd was a true child of the ocean. Owing to my strictly temperate habits at homo , nnd my absolute ab stemiousness on the ship , I have es caped the terrors of sea-sickness. As you taught mo. true happiness can only bo'found in virtue. The wicked young man from Now York has been sick half the time , as a young man who keeps a bottle in his room should be. be.Tho . The nice woolen stockings you knit for mo have been a great comfort , and all I regret is , I am afraid I have not enough of them to last mo till I get homo. ( The young villain had purchased in Now' York an assortment of the most picturesque hosiery procurable , winch ho was wearing with low cut shoes. The woolen stockings ho gave to his room-steward. ) The tracts you put in my valise I have read over and over again , and have lent them since to the passen gers who prefer serious reading to trashy novels and literature of that kind. AVhat time I have had to spare for other reading I have devoted to books of travel so that I may BCO Europe intelligently. ( "By the way , " ho stopped to say , arc the Argyle rooms in London actively closed , and is the Mabillo in Paris as lively ns it used to bo ? Great Ciesar ! won't I make it lively for them ! " ) In another day wo shall land in Liverpool , and then I shall To only five hours from London. I long to reach London , for I do so desire to hear Spurgeon , and attend the Exeter hall meetings , as you desired mo. But as wo shall reach London oil Tuesday I shall bo compelled to wait till the following Sunday , five long ' days.Pleaso Please , ma , have pa send mo a draft at my address at London , at once , fth find the expense of travel is much greater than I supposed , and I fear I shall not have enough. Your aflec- tionato son. LEMUEL. "There , " said Lemuel , as ho scaled the letter , "that is what I call a good letter. The old lady will read it over and over to herself , and then she will read it to nil the neighbors. It will do her a heap of good. Good-by. The boys nro waiting for mo in the smok ing-room. " And stopping at the bar to take a drink the liberality of English measure was not too great for him ho was , n minute after , absorbed in the mysteries of poker , nnd was "raking in" the money of the others nt a lively rate. And the letter wont to the good old mothnr , and prpbably did her good. And she doubtless worried the old gentleman till ho Bent the graceless follow n remittance. Boys can al.vuya bo sure of their mothers , would that mothers could only bo half as sure of their boys. "Ever YonrAnnlo. " She lett the elevator with an energy that sent the platform rebounding several feet , and Hashed into the hum ble don of the city editor with a rush that nrndo oven 'the portraits of cele brated base-ball clubs turn pale. Then she towered over the pile ; young man at the table nnd said ; "I want to see a good reporter ono that's got some get up in him ! " The young man managed to insist that all the local staff were energetic young follows who wcro working them selves into early graves , over which the tears of great sorrow would fall from many ayes , "Oh , I know all about them , " she continued , "Somo of them can got at some things that othcis couldn't gnt .near. " "Well , madam ? " suggested the young man with a pause. "My husband , " she continued , ital . icising the my , "looks considerably younger than ho is , and ho is carrying on ilirtatioiiH all the timo. I found nit letter in his pocket last night , and it will give you a good article for the paper if your reporter can find out who the poor little fool in. She thinks my husband is n single man. " "Well , madam to what extent lias the entanglement gone ? " "I'm sure I don't know- hut she ought to know that ho is a married man. I haven't got the letter with mo , but she said in it that she was i a picture of death , and that she was much obliged to him for the book lie had sent , but she wasn't able to d , and for him to send her a basket ol fruit and a bottle of medicine ; and just think of a girl wanting her Bweot- heart to send her some medicine I Why , I think it's shameful , and .the most ridiculous thing I over heard of , and " "But , " interposed the weary jour nalist , "it would appear to bo your > husband's fault and not the cirl's , if she thinks him unmarried , lie has evidently been deceiving her. " "Norr , don't you fret yourself about that 1" answered the businoss-liko young woman. "If you can just manage to lot her know , I'll attend to my husband's side of it. I'm just waiting tor him to co'mo homo this evening. " "What was the name signed to the note ? " " 'Ever your Annie,1" , and she smiled a grim smile as she uttered the confiding phrase. "I'll make him over her John when ho shows up. You just put that in to show 'em I'm on the racket , and if I hear any moro I'll ' como for a reporter to hunt it down , " And so Annto had bettor lay mighty low and keep very dark , if she does not want the picture of death im proved upon by an irate and energetic wife.
