the News in company with hundreds of
others from prominent men in the
nation on tlio presidential question.
The people of Lindoln and the people
of Nebraska entire will bo interested in
Mr. Kuan's views of the president nnd his
policy. The letter sent to the Chicago
News was as follows :
My Dear Sir : 1 have to acknowledge re
ceipt of youi esteemed letter requesting my
vlows on the administration of 1'rusldent
Cleveland , HIII ! In reply 1 rt-grut that what 1
Imvu to miy on Hint suujuct must be unfavor
able to the distinguished visitor whom your
ft i city is preparing to receive. But as you have
asked uiu tor my oulnlon 1 will state U with
candor ,
1 regard the administration of President
Cleveland very much as a Scotchman regards
11 "a chip In 'porridge" capable ot neither
' much uonil nor gretit harm. 1 regard It ns
lacking In oriuliiullly , lacklm : In foice , lack-
In In Utility , but not intentionally vicious.
1 consider It lias failed to Increase the com
merce , tlio prosperity , or tlui wealth of the
people at home , and it certainly has not inadu
the nr.tlon more respected abroad.
1 am ono of those who belluvo that In the
case of nations , as of Individuals there IH
inorit to live lor than mere material existence
or than the accumulation of wealth , una that
nations , as well ns Individuals , should strive
to mm and to com maud tlio respect nnd es
teem of their contemporaries. America Is
recorded in Kurope , nnd especially In Kng-
Ir.nd , as a nation of money grubbers una
sharpers , whoso ideas of glory nnd patriotism
never raise above the mluhty dollar , and
who.so principles art ) regulated solely by thu
standard ot expediency ; us a nation which ,
while possessing the freest , the greatest , the
most glorious itnmbllcan lorm ot govern
ment in tlio world , produces sumo of tlio
worst and meanest toadies on the lace of the
earth toadies who moro "dearly lo\e n
lonl" than does tlio veriest Hedge In Kng-
land. President Cleveland's administration
has done nothing to remove the urst of these
Impressions , mid It has given tangible color
to the second by bunding to Knglnnd ,
and maintaining there as minister Mr.
I'lielps , n man who from the lirst ( . 'ay '
lie sctblsfootln Urltain forgetful of the dig
nity which should surround Ills ollico ns
rcpiesuutntive of this great American re-
puulic prostrated himself In liumblovor -
fihip of everything aristocratic and every
thing Kngllsh. I know that Minister Pheips
does not rcpicsent the manhood of tlio great
American people , and 1 regard tlio continu-
nnco of sucli a man m a position of so much
Importance its ono of tliosu blunders which
arti L-onerally considered us repruhinsiulu us
crimes.
Keeling , as I ( to , Jealously proud of Ameri
can national prestige and of the honor of the
American Hair , 1 desire to sec as president n
man who would give us an administration
such as James U. Hlalno would give on thu
republican side , or Allen U. Thtirman on tin ;
democratic , an administration with n policy
boid , strong , active , vigorous , manly , ana at
and at the same time di iilueUly conserva
tive ; In a word , an administration with a
policy woriny of tlio greatness arid worthy
of the dignity of tlio American nation. I
remain , my dear sir , yours very tailfitiilly ,

"Check Your
M. Quad in Detroit Free Press : The
more I go about the country by rail the
moro I want to kill a railroad employe.
It was fully fifteen years ago that I tir.it
got the idea that I should gome day shed
the blood of a railroad man , nnd that be
lief has been growing stronger every day
since. There is a chap in the union
depot at Uuflalo who is hourly courting
death. I shan't kill him , but some day
some other sullcring victim will surely
sited his bilious blood. I wns in liiill'nlo
the other day , and naturally wanted to
conic to Detroit. 1 think the same fecl-
intr would have possessed _ any other
stranger in Hullalo. Tlioro is not one
single valid reason why any one should
remain in Uullalo when ho can start for
Detroit. Ho was figuring on the distance
of the sun from the earth when I stepped
to the window. I waited seven minutes
before interrupting him , and then asKed
for a ticket to Detroit. He Hung down his
pencil , yunkod a ticket out of the rack ,
stamped it in a vicious manner ami flung
it at my chin. It was a ticket to Louis
ville.
" 1 wanted to go to Detroit. "
"Wiiy didn't you say so , then ! "
"I did. What time does the train go * "
"Kight o'clocK to-morrow morning. "
" 15tit I want to go to-night. "
"Then why didn't you say so ! How
did I know when you wanted to go.
Train goun at 10 o'elock. "
"Hut the time table says 11 o'clock. "
"Then why did you ask me ? "
1 .started to apologue , but lie shut the
whitlow down on mo. Then 1 told him
lirough the glass that I would go to
xmiavillc , wait over 'till ' morning , or do
ilmost anything else to secure his for
giveness , but ho continued obdurate anil
refused to see me again.
It is the baggageman , however , who o
gore 1 sigh for. It sometimes seems ns if
hey wore employed to add to the number
> f lost souls. When I wanted to go down
to Cincinnati the other day I saiil to the
ir.ui at the depot :
"Can you check this trunk for Cincm-
wti ? "
"llumpl" ho replied , looking at mo in
search ot hayseed.
I took the check he offered nip , saw
dm place another on the trunk , and four
days afterward , after much worry and
! onsiderable cost , trot my trunk' from
Cleveland , wJiuro il had been carried as
straight as a string. When 1 think of
.nking a trip trom Detroit to Moscow
there arc no anxieties connected with
change of ears or jumping to steamboats
and back. I know I'd bring up all right
and at the head of the procession , but
my trnnk , I'll bet $100 to f 1 it would
never go ono rod beyond Toledo !
Tiie boss baggage man in thu union
depot in Cleveland lias been living for
Forty odtl years , but his days arc num
bered. It won't bo my hand which will
make his wife a widow , but the slayer is
no doubt on his way tho. I had been
down to Klvria. 1 chocked my trunk
from Detroit to Klvria , but of course it
didn't go there. The Lake Shore road
felt under obligations to mo for patroniz
ing twenty-live miles of its line , and
therefore carried my trunk on to Nor-
wulk. 1 tried hard to appreciate the
kindness of this "long-haul" clause , but
didn't succeed until the baggageman at
Klvria got his coat off. The trunk finally
came back with oao liingo broken and
the lock out of repair , and three davs
later I checked it for Cleveland.
1 bad a check rending from Klvira tr
Cleveland , and I saw another put on the
truck. I was assured by the baggomr.n
and tlio ticket agent und the drayman
that I need not worry. I .stood there
and saw it put on the train , ami saw it
como oll'i.ii Cleveland. . After getting : !
bit to eat I went into the baggage room
and my trunk was not there. After twc
hours' hunting I found it in a Lake Su
perior line of boats. went back tt
tackle tlio baggageman anil after I lint :
jawed him for twenty-live minutes with
out a break , lie coolly turned and said :
"Twenty-livo cents for the transfer
please. "
"Hut 11 didn't order it transferred. "
"Hut it was checked that way. "
"Then , your man at Klyria is U
blame. "
"Perhaps , but I am not the man a1
Klyria. I am the man at Cleveland. "
\Vo jawed' , and called each other liar :
nnd horse thieves , but 1 paid the transfer
Then 1 got the trunk and tied it up will
fifty feet of clothes line and wrote "De
trait1 on it thirteen places , and said U
the check man :
"Can you check this trunk for Detrol
by stearaorr"
"Certainly. "
"And will it go there ? "
"It will. "
"To-night ? "
"Yes. "
"No misfako1
"What do you take mo for ! Are yoi
getting soft in the head ? "
He checked it. When I reached De
troit it was not on the boat. It had no
been put on. A telegram said it was no
in the steamboat baggage room in Clove
land. It had not gone buck to Klyria. I
was not on its way to Xorwalk. It luu
not come around by rail. Three day
later I got news of it. The tclegran
read :
"Trnnb with check 080 carried up t (
Kennurd house , Cleveland , my mistake
How shall wo forward it to Detroit ? "
Ami I telegraphed back :
"Send the whole durned thing to anj
hospital which will accept it as a gift. "

GAMBLING DID IT.
A Prominent Philadelphia Broker ,
Driven to Suicide.
Long Brunch Letter to Philadelphia
Times : On the south side ot the West
Knd plazxa tlio other night sat John Pon-
dir , still a New York broker , with a com
fortable balance in bank. Ho has tried
all the games , from poker nnd sovon-up
down to keno , and last of till crlbbage ,
and is not much the worse for wear for
his participation In some ot the greatest
games of chance over played on the
American continent. The cinvcr blos
som in Pondlr's buttonhole looked droopIng -
Ing and faint with the heat of the day ,
and the still alert and nllvo Now YorK
broker tossed agido a cigar ho had
smoked to the bitter end and seemed in a
reminiscent mood.
I asked : "Do you remember Ed Hill-
son , n wool broker of Chestnut street ?
Wn both mot thirty years ago at Joe
Hall's game in Walnut street , Philadel
phia ? "
"Indeed 1 do , " replied Pondlr , "and
thereby hangs a talc. No man ever
lived who was fonder of all games of
chance than poor Hillson , thu wool
broker. He lived in Philadelphia for
forty years nnd was , 1 think , from Alsace
or Lorraine , for he was certainly half
Frenchman. Hillson never. had the
Napoleonic courage or nerve needed to
make a great gambler , but with him it
was the fatal passion for cards. Ho
seemed to begrudge the hours spent m
the ordinary vocations of business , albeit
ho was recognized as the best wool buyer
on tlio street.
"In 1870 ho found hnns-cH f5,000bo-
ilnd and disappeared from Philadelphia
'or ono year. Nobody made any search
'or him , as them scorned to bo a general
repression Hint the little Alsatian-
Frenchman 'would come out catbird' ( as
they say out west ) . And lie did. In a
year to a day from his disappearance
llillson appeared , full of cine , bright ,
breezy , well dressed and with a heavy
bank balance to Ids credit. He paid all
his outstanding bills and no questions
were asked. His story to his Intimates
wns that he had but $500 when he
reached Paris and he could not
resist the temptation to take a run
over to Monte Carlo. Ho iirat purchased
a return ticket to America , avowing that
lie was not afraid to face his creditors ,
tnit only waited tor his luck to turn.
Hillson said he had flUO cash left. He
mil some 100 francs on the retl. It won.
He put the winnings , 100 francs , between
the 0 nnd the ( K ) , which pays 17 for 1. lie
won. He picked out the number 13 be
cause It was called an unlucky number ,
and put 50 francs on that number. He
won' He wns now a high-roller in luck
nnd in ono hour was possessor of ; tO,000
ratios. He returned in the next steamer
o America nnd liquidated all outstand <
ng accounts.
"In 1884 , Hlllson's luck turned. HU
commissions as n Wool-buyer did not fur
nish forth the wherewith to gratify his
elegant dcsiror. ' He had sailed with a
more swelling port than his faint uiuaus
did grant continuance.
' 'Iln had friends , " continued John
Pondir , "who would have loaned him
fj.OOO. He wis : too proud to tell why he
was poor. Hillson became tired of the
struggle , anil one .Juno day he left Phila
delphia for Niagara Falls. Nobody know
where ho had gone. As soon as the tram
reached Niagara lie gave a harUnrui $ u
and simply said :
" 'Drive me to the Falls. '
"Onco there ho laid off his coat and
ended It all by one wild leap into the an
gry , death dealing current of the river.
His body was never found. The horrified
hackman fouiui a bill of sale for hit : fur
niture , covering the rent then due his
landlord on Chestnut street , _ and a note
asking the same person to give a colored
boy he hail around his ollice his last 9 ,
inclosed. The last page of Ids letter rend
thus :
I have called the turn. 1 missed the call.
Tell the Duya I'm In hnrd luck , nnd they will
not tilamo mo if 1 leave the Ills 1 liuvo undlly
to others t know not of. It Is bast so.
John Ponder rose up sadly , lit a fresh
cigar nnd said : "Young man , as I told
you before , never gamble.1

ing storm ; but when he draw from his

Galreston News : One of the small
cratts , while anchored on the flats
in the bay yesterday , on pulling up its
anchor , drew up a small octopus winch
had attached itself to the anchor by its
tentacle' , . Hut few ot thesu lish iirc found
in these waters and none have ever neon
caught hero wliiuli have ever attained
their full growth. The octopus is by some
styled the devil fish , doubtless from its
hideous shape and appearance , but au-
thoilties do not so class it , the fish of tlic
ray species , which was caught and G < tlub >
ited at the beach about two years at0 ,
being the only lish classed in the encyclo
pedia as the devil lisli. The octopus K ol
the cuttle-fish family of winch there are
numerous varieties , the octopus being so
culled trom its having eitrlit projectiles or
arms , with the mouth located at the center
of their bases. Thcso arms are located
.symmetrically around the mouth , anil are
used in drawing in food. They are ver.v
long as the lish grows in size , and on the
inner surface are suckers in the form ol
muscular , cup-like disks , which are ar
ranged in several rows. When these
suckers nre applied to any object tin.
adhesion is very forcible , and they an
frequently known to stop vessels. Tin
ono caught yesterday was very young , it-
body not being larger than an egg , whili
its unns stretched out would cover the
crowu of a hut It died soon after beinp
taken from the water , and was turnec
over to Ollicer Stansfield , who had II
placed in alcohol to bo preserved as c
curiosity.
