THE COLONEL'S LUCK.
BY WILLIS BROOKS.
We bad been telling our various ex-
periences with burglars, footpads, pick.
pockets and the like, when the colonel,
who bad been silent until now, spoke of
the time he was robbed of a litte wore
thas $15,900 by confidence operators
This promised to be a story worth
hearing, so we all settled back la our
chairs and gave attention
It was several years ago,” the col
onel began At that time | had pever
owued so much as $15,000 all at vnce,
$0, B88 JOU may guess, the loss fell very
Beavlly upon me. | had bought a ticket
in the Loulsiana lottery without any
very great expectations 1 would pot let
| myself expect but the fact that one of
our towusinen had, some months belore,
wou & small fortune In this way made
‘amy two brothers and me take several
fiyers in the lottery, and | confess that
(once In awhile | did ask mysell, What
if my ticket did win a capital prize?
{1 didu’'t expect It to, you understand,
| but | speculated a good deal ou What
i H—
| “Well, on the morulag following one
{of the drawings my younger brother
tcame bursting into my room with the
| local newspaper In his hand and a look
of excitement on his face
“Ed.” sald he, stifling his voice, that
our father and mother, who were plous
people and did not belleve ln lotteries,
might not hear Ed, wake up. You've
won $15,000.°
“l was awake on the instant— wide
awake. The pewspapér was before me,
and my brother's finger was upon the
spot In the telegraphic report of the
drawing, where the pumber of my
ticket was printed In plain figures op-
posite the amount for which It called
To say that I shared my brother's ex-
citement would be to put it very mild-
ly, but I concealed my feelings better
than he did, even going so far as to say,
with apparent calmuness that there was
probably some mistake about it and
that we would better keep the matter
quiet until the report was confirmed
“However, by the time | had break-
fasted, and started for my office | wus
then practicing law in a small way in
my native town—Iit seemed as if every-
body I met knew all about my stroke
of luck I was congratulated on all
sides, though | didn’t suppose half a
dozen persons knew even that [ had
ever bought a lottery ticket But f{t
seems my brothers, who had gone
downtown ahead of me, had told a few
in confidence, and those few had in turn
confided it to everybody else they met
“From eight o'clock In the morning
until two in the afternoon my office was
thronged with men, who came to offer
congratulations, to suggest this, that
and the other good investment for me,
aud tw offer excellent advice about not
losing my head over my sudden ac-
quisition Meantime [| passed out
cigars—the best that could Le obtained
in the town-—by the boxful. | must
have spent $16 or $20 In this way before
the Chicago mourning papers arrived, on
the two o'clock train that afternoon.
Then 1 found that | had been rubbed,
willfully, cruelly, robbed of my $15,000
by wen In whom 1 had placed the ut-
most confidence, and from whom | had
reason to expect better treatment”
The colonel sat ln silence for a full
minute, apparently indulging in bitter
wemories of the experience. The rest
of us maintained silence, too. The sit-
uation was a delicate one. We were
all probably agreed upon the thought
that his brothers had In some way pro-
cured possession of bis Ucket and
drawn the money upon it, but none of
us felt like venturlpg to suggest such
a thought, since it might not be true,
Finally, when the silence had become
paluful, one of the company asked:
“Who robbed you, colonel?”
“My brothers,” he answered, sorrow-
fully—"my brothers and one other
man.”
Again we were silent. One does not
like to express adverse opinions of a
friend's brothers, even though he him-
self may not seem to hold them iu very
high esteem.
“How did they do it, colonel?” some-
body at last ventured to inquire.
“By making me belleve | had won the
$15,000 prize” he answered “Those
rascally brothers of mine had connived
with a printer in the office of the Jocal
newspaper to change the number of the
winning ticket after the editors had
read the proofs.”
The joke went round, the old colonel
enjoying the joke as much as any of us
“But.” he added, seriously, “| was just
as surely robbed of that $15,000 as if |
had had the money in my pocket and it
bad been stolen from me What with
the congratulations and the discussions
about Investments and the unquestion-
ing acceptance of the situation By every-
body with whom | talked. 1 had come
to regard myself as the actual possessor
of the little fortune and as a man of
affairs. It was a mere joke, of course,
and | had to accept it good-naturedly as
such, but 1 don’t mind telling you now
that It was the very severest financial
jolt | ever received in my life—{fully as
hard to bear as If | had actually drawn
the money and been swindled ont of it
in a lump by professional confidence
men. And when you come right down
to it. what is the difference between los-
ing money that you have and losing
money that you think you have? '—
