"Kid" Day hiKl" I'lilrnjjn In
Hard Imck.
Ctilcngo Ttlinino
The "Kid from Denver" is just now
the wonder of the locil sporting world.
The "Kid" is n youth of tlio "candy.
butcher" or train-boy order Ho lias
largo , any eyes and brown hair , a pale ,
but well-fed look , is .something of n
dutlo in dress , an inveterate smoker ,
find is said to wear the finest diamond
sported by any chap of his ago in the
west. The "Kid" has money , which is
his most distinctive possession. Whcto
ho got it nobody knows , but , judging by
the lavish way in which ho scatters it
around , ono might suppose ho had cither
inherited a gold mine or discovered Alnd-
( tin's lamp. Ho has been n pnriodical vis
itor nt the gambling-tables of Chicago for
a week or ten days past , and yet ho has
formed no alliances and remains as much
of a mystery as over. A description of
ono of his visits will servo to illustrate his
methods. Ono night in the early part of
the week hu entered a gambling-house on
Clark street where a heavy game of faro
isdcxlt , supposedly "on the square. " In
the midst of the u'litno ho prctflcd up to
the table and throw down a 20 gold
piece.
"Stack , sir ? " asked the dealer , hand-
in out § 5 worth of white chips.
For the "Kid"
answer throw down
four other gold pieces of the same de
nomination and ( mid "Itud chips. "
The dealer's countonauco changed
slightly as ho pushed forward the five
stacks of chips. Tlioso wore immediate
ly placed upon five case card < < , after which
the youth bit oil' the end of an unlightcd
cigar ho hold in his mouth and carelessly
watched the successive turns of the box.
Every bet was lost , and the dealer raked
in the chips with the usual hugging , fond
ling movement which accompanies a big
winning for the bank. Then the loft
hund of the youth went i nto the inside
breast pocket of his coat , and out with it
cnrno three bills of § 50 each , which ho
throw down upon the green cloth , calling
this time for blue chips , which are worth
" apiece in the gaino. These w ere scat
tered in piles on various cards , all of
which lost but ono. This was a bet of
two chips. The bet was not touched ,
and on the second turn it doubled up ,
making in all 810. On the following
turn the man at the boi hugged it in.
The "Kid" wns atill unmoved , and.with-
out a tremor or sign of trepidation ,
thrust his hands into hia pants pocket
and drew out another wad of bills , which
were tossed to the dealer.
"Ono hundred , " said the do.ilei as ho
counted the tons.
"Blue chips , ' ' was the response.
The youtn made four bets and lost ,
after which ho lighted his cigar and
walked away as if ho had aomo other
trilling business to attend to.
"He's a good "un , " said an olJ-timor ,
as ho made a fifty cent bot.
"Ho playa right , " said another. If a
man wants to win lie can't ' hold his money
in his hand. It must go on cards. "
"That's twice 1'vo soon him in a
week , " said the first speaker. "I hear
lie's lost about § 1,000 since he's boon
lioio , but they say ho turned up a bo.i in
Denver and took all the bank had. "
'Broke" on Change The Seedy Jlnli-
It lies of Gambler's Alloy ,
Trlbuno.
A very seedy , yet extremely dignified
oldo'rly individual emerged from an adja
cent bucket-shop and joined the crowd of
excited speculators collected in Gamblers'
alloy.
"That man , " said a habitue of the lo
cality , to a reporter , "was rich a few
rears ago. Ho nad cash in the lnnkrcal
( state , and securities enough to inako
lim worth # 1 50,000. Now ho hasn't a
i dollar , I verily boliovo. How did ho
ese it ? The same way ho made it
speculation , and a good deal of whisky
nixed in to quicken the process of get
ting rid of his wealth.
"Ho is a fair typo of a class well rep-
'csontod around hero , " the speaker con
tinued. "There are a do/on of thorn
vho at sumo time have boon positively
rich , and numberless others in the differ
ent grades of well-oil' to comfortably-
jxcd and independent. To all alike a-
ivo-dollar bill now is a rarity seldom pos
sessed. There is ono who loss than Kvo
, 'cura ago made $ MO,000 in a sint-lo deal
jut never saw a dollar of it. Ho hung
in to make more , and when the market
.urnod lost not only every penny of that
) ig profit , but all ho possessed besides ,
ind his membership certificate in the
ward also. The shock affected his mind
little. Another had § 1115,000 and lost
ill in a few months. Another , two ye.-wa
igo vras a big commission-merchant , rich
ind influential , now a wreck. Another
drew $5,000 every month from his com-
nissiona and lived nearly up to it ; now
10 hasn't a dollar. There are plenty of
hem , elderly men generally , too old to
jegin anew.
"Usually liipior i us much to bluiiio
'or their piosont state as the change in
heir luck. They hang around the punio
hey can no longer play. Its foacinution
is just as strong as in the days of their
; pod fortune. Still poasosaiiu ; a largo
circle of acquaintances among the com-
illusion men , they are bete noir of
lookers' lives. Ono of thorn will walk
into his old broker's ollico and l > ei ; him to.
make n trade for his urrount. Vor tbo
suko of old times ho does to. I sually
it's a loss and the broker 1ms topockot it.
Hut that doesn't deter the broken down
speculator. Ho repeats the request ngain ,
and of course is refused , although its un
pleasant and hard to the commission-man
; o Bay 'no,1
"They rarely recover lost foitune , or
my pnrt of it. Their luck might change
Jilt then habits never do. "

Diphlcrlii ,
I.tlU Jwuriiul ot llrnlth.
Diphtheria is generated by breathing
impure air , such an coinofrom damp apart
ments , dirty collars , gutter1 , sinks , decay
ing matters , pools of standing liquids ,
and other sources of filth. It is usually
confined to peraons from two to fifteen
yeaMofiii-o. The tvtmosphoro , the breathing -
ing of which causes the disease , seems to
be full of Iking things , \ eatable and
animal , the bactcrh and micocoppins ,
sumo of which lodge in the throat and
form whitu splotches , which are distin
ctive of the malady , and whose presence
quickly poisons the blood : hence there
should not be n moment's delay in send
ing for a physician , as tha inarch of the
disease is always rapid , nnd its virulence
increases every hour.
As with moat other diseases , diphtheria
is more likely to attack those whose sys
tcms have been debilitated by illness ,
poor diet , or any cause whatever. Anj
irritation of the throat prepares the wai
for the disease. Any person atfoctcc
should bo taken to an upper room , into
which no ono should como except thoao
in perfect health , and who have not tin
slightest scratch or sere on any part o
the body , particularly the hands. The
room should bo ventilated all the time
all discharge should bo quickly removed
the clothing frequently changed , and a
once coycicd with water containing car
bolic rtcid.
Diphtheria taken from another porsoi
is moro malignant than that generated by
bad air.
TKK.VTMK.NT OP MI'IITH KllIA.
One of the best plans of treatment is
the following :
Gargle Chlorate of potassa , 2 drams
hot water , G ounces ; alcohol , 4 drams
creosote , 8 drop ; muratio acid , . ' (0 ( drops.
This to bo used as a gargle every thirty
minutes.
Internally , use the following remedy !
Chlorate of potasaa , . ' 1 drams ; water , ( ' .
ounces ; sugar , 1 ounce ; tincture of muri
ate of iron , 2 drains.
Dose A teaspoonful every four hours.
It is claimed that the abo\o treatment
will euro nineteen cases out of twenty.
The principal point is to find out what
will destroy the bacteria ,
Tannin will kill them in two hours. \
solution of copperas , that is , sulphate of
iron , will kill them ; also chlorine water
and diluted muratic , sulphuric and nitric
acidn. If copperas is used as a gargle , it
should not bo stronger than u piece half
as largo as a nutmrg , dissolved in a pint
of wjitor ; or a level teaspoon of tannin
disolvcd in a toaspoonfull of warm water ;
but it is better to rely on chlorine washes
above namodand ; it would bo a safe plan ,
should any member of a family have
diphtheria , for each of the others to gargle
glo the mouth every hour with chlorine
solution.
Instead of using solutions , a few grains
of either chlorate of potash , tannic acid
or copperas , known as sulphate of iron ,
may bo placed dry , far back on the
tongue , to dissolve and spread over the
surfaces. It is a moro simple method of
applying these remedies , and would bo
moro likely to reach farther down the
throat and to remain longer in contact
with the diseased surfaces than when ap
plied in gargles or swalowed.
These remedies are powerful to cure in
proportion to the promptness with which
they aru used.

Wolf and fox skins arc made up in
largo numbers , though they arc not as
plenty as could bo desired , and coon
skins are very scarce. Beaver nnd otter
aru in great demand , and are much
scarcer than suits the dealers. On theao
furs arise of at least 10 per cent , ovoi
last year's prices in reported. Not loi\j

beaver. Missouri river , beaver nd
thoao from its tributaries are worth
about § 2 2fi per pound. Boar skina are
comparatively plenty , and the black vari
ety is the favorite for robes. Carriage
mid house robes of Japanese gout are
much in favor. They are imported in
many sixes , and in colors running from
white to dark , mixed gray. The fur is
long and silky and the price reasonable ,
ranging from ? 0 to 810 per robe , accord

1'ruiiliiK Transplanted TreeH.
An eastern nurseryman who has had
great experience in planting trees writes.
A tree in full life may bo compared to a
powerful pump , the roots absorbing
water from the sail , which is carried up
ward through the stem and exhaled from
the leaves in the form of vapor. This
exhalation from the leaves is really the
primary operation , however , being sim
ply a process of evaporation. If , now ,
tlio principal portions of the roots bo cut
away , and especially the fine rootlets
which are farthest from the stem , and
through whose extremities nearly all the
water is absorbed , the leaves , if al
lowed to grow , will exhaust the water
from the stem and rootn more rapidly
than it can bo supplied by the remnant
of the latter , and the consequences
will bo the destruction of the tree.
Hence , in transplanting trees the leaf-
bearing twites should bo cut nway in pro
portion to the loss of rootsand it should
be remembered that the root surface is
generally equal to that of the twigs ;
consequently , the safest rule is to re
move nearly all the branches , trimming
to bare poles. It is hard to do this , but
the aftergrowth of the tree willboenough
moro rapid to compensate the apparent
loss. In moving largo trees it is an ex
cellent plan to dig down and cut oil'n
largo portion of the roots a year before
transplanting , removing a portion of tho-
top at tile same timo. This will cause
the formation of new rootlets near the
stem , which may bo nreserved in the
final transplanting.

Construction of Carp Ponds.
A carp-breodoT in Pennsylvania says a
> roper system requires three ponds ,
'hoy must all be shallow in the main ,
> ut each must have- deep place next to
he outlet. Each must have a collector
n the deepest point made of wood or
nasonry. This i& a sort of trap in which
o collect the fair ; ! eels , etc. , which are
uro to got into all ponds. Con-
icctod with the collector must be a sluice
rhich will drain * the pond dry at will.
L'his should bo done early in the spring
and late in the fall. A\ \ ] wood and ma-
onry should bo avoided in the construe-
ion of embankments- except the simple
luice referred to , and thb sluice ahould
