"It don't p.iy unless you nro on th

"A burnt child dreads the fire , '

good way to got your money. Easy

times lluali , but oftcnor broke. One
doesn't know the value of mnnoj
when ho scoops it in by gambling. "
"I suppose you hnvo had n taste ol
both good nnd bad luck in your gam
bling experience ? " the friend asked.
"Yes , both kinds. I remember H
case where I had n little of both. Per
haps you remember , " ho continued ,
"tho race some years ngo in Boston
between John Morgan and Dlackstono
Belle. The Belle was a Boston horao ,
while the other was owned in NOT
York , A friend told mo that Morg.in
was bound.to win , and advised mo to
Inck him. The day the race was to
come olfn couple of llnrlford friends
and myself wont to Boston with well
filled pockotbooka , intending to buck
Morgan. When wo reached the park
wo found the odds were 100 to 35 on
Morgan , and wo didn't care to invest
on the favorite nt those odds. A heat
was trotted and the mare acted so bad
ly that it waa evident that Morgan
could have chut her out if ho had not
been pulled by the driver. Then the
betting was wild. Voices were heard
in all directions shouting , 'Ton to on < )
on Morgan ! " 'A , hundred to tenon
Morgan ! " 'A thousand to a hundred on
Morgan ! "
"I'lioao eddo were so big that ,
although wo came down from IJart-
ford 10 back Morgan , wo agreed to
take the odds , and each of us pooled
in $500 , nnd I went forward with my
§ 1,000 to put it up on the mare. If
anything should happen that she
should win , wo could rake in $15,000
a snug little pile. I sang cut ' 100
to 1,000 on tlie mare ! " My friend
who had gave mo the bolting point ,
and whom I h.id nut before seen that
day , heard my voice mid c.inio up and
excitedly said : 'You nro n fool.
Didn't I tell you to back Morgan' !
Ho ia booked to win , euro. '
"Thia bluffed mo off. It took all
the pluck cut of mo , and I wmit back
to the boyo and told them of it. With
no money up wo lost all interest in
the race and started for the city. Before -
fore wo got thuro wo saw ; \ crowd
gathered around a suburban hotel ,
and soon learned that a second heal
had boon trotccd aad that the favorite
had hurt himself and came near being
distanced. And the result was thai
the mare won the race , and wo
bliinkod our luck at not being in on
the $10,000 pot.
"That was bad luck , but wo had
gene to Boston to make something ,
and so wo went to bucking the tiger.
We lost nil the money wo had except
about $5 each , and wo put thia
together and chanced it on a card and
won. From thia point our luck
turned. Ono of the party did all the
playing , but wo ivoro all in for an
equal share of the winnings. When
wo loft for Hartford wo had doubled
our pile ; but for all this wo felt sick
to think wo didn't scoop in the $15 ,
000. But such ia the luck of the
gambler ! Aa I said nt the start ,
gambling doesn't pay. "

CHINESE PORk-BufoHERS.
Son Francisco Caucasians Forced to
Buy Meat from tbo Despised
Mongols.
Enn Francisco Chronicle.
"Yes , sir ; wo have to .buy all our
pork In Chinatown , " replied a promi
iiont pork-packer and retailer yesterday
day to the inquiry made by a reporter
whether all the pork caton in this city
was sold by Chinese.
"You don't moan to say that all
pork-butcliora nro obliged to go to
Chinatown toobtain a supply of moat
For their customers ? "
"Yes , I do. Every pound of fresh
pork sold in thia city comes from
Ohinatown. Wo can't get it tiny
where else. You'ro a reporter , ain't
you ? "
"Yes. "
"Well , I want you to toll the whole
truth about this business of ours. It
is not properly understood by the pee
ple. A wrong idea has boon given
sut relative to our trade , and wo wish
; ho Chronicle would correct it. The
tapers have spread the impression
.lint Chinamen deal in live hogs , and
control the market in Butchurto\vn.
This is not thu case , us I will explain
o you. "
"Why , where do the Chinese get
hold of the hogfl ? "
"Thoy buy thorn in the slaughter
louse ot white men. You never BOO a
Chinaman handling a drove of hogs at
ho cars or steamboats. Ho never gets
lis hand upon n hog until it is killed ,
when the porker passes into hia pos
session , and remains there until wo
vhito dealers go after it in China-
wn. "
"Please explain more fully , "
"The jobber Bolls his drove of hogs
o ono of the principal hog-slaughter-
era in Butchertown , They are allow
ed to rest nnd recover after their jour
ney from the country , nnd then Hold
o the Chinamon , who kill and dross
hem , and haul them off to Sacramento
, nd Dupont stroeta , where they are
dumped down in a pile until rnpialy
cat up. Hero they nro divided. One
lortion is preserved for the Chinese
rado nnd the remainder is taken into
jack yards , up-utaira rooms , or collars
n Chinatown , to bo cooled off for sale
o the white pooplo. "
"Why don't you white men kill and
landlo your own pork , as dealers in
> ecf and mutton do ? "
"Bocauso wo cannot compete with
John Chinaman. Wo want that por-
ion of the ho which John does not
particularly care about keeping for
lomo supply. Wo obtain the hams ,
ides , and loins that's all. The rest
s kept to feed the thousands of voracious
cious pork-caters in Chinatown. A
3Iuneso will not buy pork unless it is
vartn and soft , with soiuo of the ani-
nal heat in it , Ifo does not want it
lard and iirm , like thia ono wo are
cutting up. No , sir ; John wants hi
meat warm nnd Hubby , hence the car
cass must bo taken to Chinatown to
bo cut up ns soon as U is killed
There the head , shouklors , breast , feet
and offal are cut oil * and sold to
Chinese customers ; the hind-quarters
nro carried up-stairs or down-stairs
Mid hung up to cool. Wo send < > u
men to Chinatonn at o a. m. to buy
pork for the supply of our white cus
tomers. "
"Is not the Idea of eating moai
which ha * cooled in the filthy close
dens and smoky yards of Ohinatonu
very ropublsivo to the people of seusi
tlvo ( antes ? "
"Yes , I have no doubt It is ; but
people who eat pork must shut their
eyes to the fnct that it comes from the
heart of Chinatown. Wo pork deal
era don't like it , but wo cannot liel [
ourselves. Wo pot two white mou to
engage in the uusinoss in Butchor-
town , and nil agreed not to pat rom/
tlio Chinese , They tried it n short
time aud gave it up , and we had to
150 bnck to the Chinese again , "
"What caused their failure ? "
"Thoy could not dispose of the re
fuse and otl'.U , which is cash to the
Chinaman. Ho sells ovorythinu ;
nothing { 3 wasted. He goto thu sun < ?
price for shoulders as would be paid
tor ham . The head , feet , gut-fat ,
and entr.tlis nro all good to John.
Our white people will not buy any
thing except loin , tenderloin , or chops.
The hams nnd aides wo cure nt our
packing-houses. There , you BOO that
poor \unnnn with that ragged drosa
and threadbare shawl ; she would turn
up ler nose at n shoulder or , n pig's
liead. She prefers to pay 20 cents a
pound for tenderloin. No , sir ; our
people have been educated up to de
mand the best part of the hog or
nothing , Wo could not sell that
which the Chinaman cat sand prefer. "
"How long has this purk trade been
in the hands of Chinamen ? "
"Ever since the gold mine excite-
inont in 1850. They have alwnyo had
it. I have boon in the business nearly
twenty years , and they were in con
trol when I opened out. "
The reporter visited several pork
dealers , nnd all gave the same version
of the busincsi. All purchased pork
to retail which had been cooled and
cut up in Chinatown. A visit of in
spection was made in several of the
largest hog-slaughtering houses m
Uutchortown , nnd they were found to
bo in possession of Chinese pork
butchers. On n clouerinvestigation
of the cooling plncco in Chinntonii ,
the reporter discovered that the portions
tions of the hogs designed fi r
the supply of the white population
were hanging , some In garrets , some
in dark hallways , some upon racks
elevated ono nbovo the other , in b.ick
yards , exposed to the pestilential
fumea of the filthiest alloys in that
filthy qaartor. A vinit would moat
certainly spoil the appetite of the
most confirmed pork-loving epicurean

A Baby Son Lion.
A baby sea lion was born nt thu
Zoo ou Saturday. This mnkoa the
fourth nnimal of this species ( Xnlopliua
Californianuo ) brought into the world
nt tins institution , but na yut 1'rof.
Thompson , the supurintondunt , 1ms
never auccodod in r.using one. The
first pair of BOA lions over brought to
the garden was in 1877 , they haying
coino from aouthorn California , and
the first calf waa born in 1878. The
mother , however , waa in the last atgea
of consumption , and died only n fo\v
daya afterward , the calf surviving her
but n wook. Another cow was then
obtained , and in the fall of 1880 the
second baby seal was born. The
mother dying shortly of ulcuration of
the ovaries , it was found impossible-
to raise the youngster , which shufllod
off within n week after its inn , and n
third cow was procured , and another
baby born Thursday , Juno 9 , 1881.
This little follow lived some five or
six months only , when he , too , turned
up his toes , na it wore , and died. The
same cow has now given birth to an
other babe , and additional effort will
bo iniido to raise it. Many eea lions
have boon born in captivity , both
hero and in other fresh wntor aquar
iums , but the one by this same moth
er in June , 1880 , was the first speci
men known to have been conceived
in captivity , The ono now at the Xoo
is , ot course , the second example ,
which , the first now buin dead ,

Mlnintc In Mexico.
Major I. 0. Stafford , who haa ro-
icntly returned from Kuuvo Leon ,
Mexico , has favored mo with an
account of liia trip. In nnawer to
juoatioim ho eaid : "My busincBH in
Mexico was to make a personal In-
'oatigUicm of the mining district of
illaudanu , better known as Manno
Vojas , where the Anglo-Toxas Mining
company of thia city , and of which 1
un treasurer , owns four good silver
nines , and machinery there and un
route to work the ores. There is no
[ ueation about the mineral wealth of
his district , as the records show that
t was a rich silver producing region
vhen worked by the Indiana and
Spaniards nome two hundred years
go. The ere are galena , carrying
rom § 27 to g-100 of silver to the ton ,
nd copper , carrying 30 of silver and
rom 8140 of gold to the ton. The
'opuclio , Moreno , Chihuahua and
< "arandula mines , owned by our com-
iany , are pronounced by our fjontral
uporintendont , Mr. Frank J. Trapp , ;
f liodio , Cal. , an valuable >
iroportioa. Our con.pany IIUH full
unlidonco in the district , and active .
vork has already been inaugurated.
Vo liavo ono improved water-back
molter , cap icity of tv/olvo tons jier
ay on the ground , now being erect-
sd , which will bo ready for buxineai
n thirty days , and four car-loads i/f
machinery , now at San Antonio
waiting completion of the Mexican
lational road to Villaoclamu , which
las n capacity of forty tons per day.
Our general superintendent ha ? four
shifts of men nt work cutting n now
tunnel in our Copncho mine , which
will give us abundance of orca within
200 feet. In fact , wo consider our
enterprise a bonanza. Mexico , long
impeded in her race for empire and
success by revolution and war , but
now n sister republic , extending to us
a welcome hnnd in nil intornationnl
ellbrts looking to mutual prosperity ,
is the long neglected land of promise
as to variety of agricultural produc
tion nnd mineral wealth , Centuries
ago the gold-hunters of Spain sought
her shares eagerly ns the world-
famed ol dorado , and rich re
wards in thu precious metals
ncro sent to the mother country
to excite Iho wonder of the Old
World. Hut the frequent interruptions
tions by marauding tribes of savngct
nnd revolutions forced them from
time to time to desist in their efforts
until , 1812 , the general rising ngninst
the Spaniards forced them to flee the
country. Many of the mines worked
by this race , from which millions of
dollars worth of precious uietnls had
been entombed , hnvo since rouminoit
dormant , nnd yet , notwithstanding
the extremely limited resources nt
hand nnd poverty of enterprise , * ho
product of Mexican mines , from 1818
to 1870 , was S-OS.OOO.OOO. . It was
Humboldt's prediction tlmt the north
ern portion of Mexico would yet sur
pass those of the central nid ( suu'hcrn ,
rich as they wore. And this , bo it
noted , is the part bordering on the
llio ( .irnndo nnd now being girded by
railroads. In Central Mexico and
Nevada , the precious metals are found
it grout depth , whilst in northern
Mexico rich lodes are found cropping
out on the surface. Thia is accounted
for geologically by Humboldt by thu
dip uf thu veins , the rich ere being
found near the surface in the north ,
recedes with departure therefrom ,
thus showing the paying ores n
thousand feet from the surface in thu
former. Ward's history of Mexico
says : I see enough in these records
to warrant the supposition that the
hitherto unexplored regions of north
ern Mexico contain mineral treasures
which are likely to make the future
product of that country inlinitely ex
ceed the amount that has hitherto
boon drawn from the comparatively
poorer districts of the south. An
derson , in his "Silver Country , " re
lates of Don Domingo Asmindi paying
duty on a piece of virgin silver weigh
ing 275 pounds , nnd of the king's
nttornoy bringing suit for duty en
several " nieces together weighing -1,01(0 (
pounds. .J. Itosa Brown , United
Stntert mining commissioner , sayn : 1
have never seen such indication ) * o' "
of inexhaustible wealth within so small
an area. When wo tnko into consid
eration the tudu appliances in u&u ai
thu time for developing the mines and
tlie reduction of thu ere therefor , we
can best estimate the veins of precious
metalo as of exceeding richness. With
the use of the improved machinery
and successful methods which science
developed , what untold wealth muat
thu future of Mexican minus unfold.
1 ho advnntngea of mining in north
ern Mexico are incomparable. Deep
snows , heavy roads or extreme rigor
of climate nro unknown. A beautiful ,
balmy climate prevails , and the
work of mining goes on uninterrupted
the year round. Thu climate ia favorable -
vorablo to health , thu miner
scarcely over needing shelter. Living
is cheap nnd labor cheaper than in
any other mining district by ono-half.
The sight of an Indian in Northern
Mexico ia n rarity. The confidence of
the people in their republic ia univer
sal , removing all further necessity for
revolution , and thu great desire for
foreign capital nnd enterprise is such
as to oiler n ready welcome to all lion
cst adventurers. Since ( ho inaugura
tion of our smelting works in this dis
trict several Americans hnvo located ,
purchasing or lonsing mines ; until now
there is quito nn excitement. We nro
now purchasing ores for cash from the
numerous minus in the district to sup
ply our smelters until our own mines
are developed. The people nro gen
erous to n fault , nnd gladly welcome
the enterprising Americanwliom they
look to for the successful development
of their mineral wealth.
Nuovo Loon is the first frontier
stnto of the republic of Mexico pene
trated by thu steam horse. Palmer
and Sullivan's Mexican National rail
way is no running regular passenger
trains to within a few miles of Yillul-
dama , whore the smelting works nro
located. Track laying is going on nt
thu rate of one mile pur day. At thin
rate , by thu firat of August , it will bo
completed to Monterey , the capital of
the atatu , nn the grading , culvurtn ,
otc. , aru completed ready for the truck
to that point. Nuovu Loon i
ono of thu moat prosperous
Btntca in tlui republic , nnd its
immense trr.do is now at our very
door , und should have immediate nt-
tontion nt the hands of enterprising
Houston morchuntG.From what I
saw I don't ' think much of that par-
ion of Mexico as a furminu country
except by irrigation but the positive
evidence of her mineral wealth is visi
ble on every hand , and hnr mineral
production is going to bo far ahead of
anything our own country has ever
experienced.
