NO MACKINTOSH.
Contrary Effect* of the Absence of
One oil u Friend of Col. Calliper.
"1 knew a man once," said Col. Cal
liper, according to the New York Sun,
"a young man who had everything that i
heart could Wish for, who, notwith
standing that fact,wasaprettysaneand
sensible sort of young man, but who,
nevertheless, did at times, in his young- '
tr days, before he had learned tflie
philosophy of life, occasionally have
periods of depression. In one of these
on his way home once from Europe
be came to the conclusion that life
wasn't worth living, and he made up
his mind to end it all right there by
jumping overboard. As he looked over
the rail and realized how wet the wa
ter was, and how much there was of it,
be knew that he ought not to go out
in it without a mackintosh.
"Going below he discovered that he
had neglected to bring one. On this
occasion of all others when he wanted
one most lie had none. But lie couldn't
think of encountering the wet inap
propriately clad, and s-o he deferred
jumping overboard until he could do so
an proper form. Next morning, with
the resiliency of youth, liu was feeling
better, and he arrived in New York j
buoyant, hopeful and strong.
"And, curiously enough, while in 1
other respects he remained as punctili
ous as ever about his dress, he never
after that wore a mackintosh; and he !
went out in all sorts of weather with- :
out hesitation. It was his-carelessness
in this regard that led finally to death.
Out without a mackintosh in a heavy
rain at the age of 07 lie caught a cold :
that settled 011 his lungs, developed into 1
pneumonia and carried him off, and so
it may be said of ray friend that he
owed his long life, and his death, to the
same cause."
HOW HE VOTED.
Character \N bo Had a Way for Cir
cumventing Inspector*.
Citizens of the Second district of the
Fourth ward, says the Rochester (N.
Y.) Democrat and Chronicle, are having
considerable fun with a well-known
character of the vicinity who developed
a novel idea of the blanket ballot sys
tem of voting, 011 election day. For the
purposes of this narrative the char
acter may be called Tom. Tic was given ;
a ballot by the election officers, and re
tired into one of the compartments to
make his little cross marks. After re
maining in the booth for a time Tom
emerged with a self-satisfied air, but
empty handed.
"Where's your ballot?" asked an elec
tion officer.
"Oh, that's all right," replied Tom.
"I put it In there all right."
"You haven't voted yet; go back and
get your ballot."
"Yes. 1 have; you can't fool me; 1
voted it in there; you can't get a sight
at my vote."
After a little more argument on the
same line an investigation was begun,
which resulted in the discovery that
Tom bad carefully marked his ballot,
to his own satisfaction, folded it up and
slipped it through a crack inlheback I
of the booth. From there it had slipped
down into a pile of agricultural imple
ments stored in the place, and it. was
with no little labor and some difficulty
that it was "fished" out and returned to
the would-be voter, who, much against
}.is will, was obliged to permit the in
spectors to handle it before it was de
posited in the box.

I übips are a boon to players who in
j dulge iii' a little game in a boarding
house room of a Sunday afternoon,
says the Kansas City Star. And they
are a boon- to hotel proprietors who have
a room set apart for poker-playing
guests. A detective could hold his ear
to a keyhole all nlglit without determin
ing whether it was a game of whist or
{H>kcr that was going oil' inside. The
new poker chips come in red, white and
blue colors, and are as flexible as a
loser's conscience. The poker room
proprietor and Sunday afternoon play
ers have all laid in a supply, and the
j noisy ivory and celluloid chips, with
j holes bored in them, will soon begin to

I but wow theti it does come tor my mind,

New Orleans estimates its less from
the yellow fever epidemic at $25,00<>.c00,
j and it is doubtful if this corns all the
incidental damages. A twentieth of that
sum spent in-san itation would be called
excessive, yet there are
that would make it a most profit::lde
j investmenft. Owe particular fact about
this year's outbreak of yellow fever in
New Orleans is that the normal average
aiortaliiy of the city has been but slight
| >' increased. The rate, with the cp!-
! domic at its height, was but a fraction !
i over 25 per 1,000 annually, -which i
