FUEEI.AND, I>A„ JULY 25, 1898. j Practicing Only What They tV.re Taught. From the Philadelphia Times. There Is vory general and profound | prejudice cherished throughout the : country against the Cuban insurgents because of their barbarous methods anil j their unwillingness to submit to the ! discipline of civilized warfare. It is not surprising that tiie widely diverging j methods of warfare practiced by the | United states troops and by the Cuban j insurgents, very seriously prejudice our troops against the Cubans who should be our close and ellicient allies in the present war in Cuba. While no defense can be offered for the conduct of the Cubans after the capture of Santiago, we should gener ously judge the Cuban insurgents. They have been many years at war with ! Spain. The ten years' conflict was par ticipated in by many of those who are j now in the insurgent army, and thev have been at war now for three years without over receiving a lesson from the j Spanish army Illustrating any of the j : humanities of civilized conflict. They know nothing of civilized war- j fare and they have never had any of it. I The onemy that oppressed, robbod and | murdered tlieid was fiendishly barbarous, not only against the Cuban insurgents in the hold, but against their families al i home; and it is not surprising that an ] army made up largely uf semi-civflized Cubans should have no conception what- ! ever of the laws of civilized warfare in ! tha struggle with Spain. It may bo nothing more than a coinci dent, but it is certainly remarkable how I the anthracite coal trade is being push I ed ahead by tho trust managers In due j proportion to the activity displayed in ! the movement to "Boom Hard Coal." J he a Ilia lii o agents of the carrying com- t panies courteously informed the public ( not many months ago thai the coal ' trade depression was a natural sequence j of conditions anil that the anthracite I roads' locomotives were hurtling bitu- j mlnoiis as a matter of economy. The recent convention at Scrantot, and the intimation that certain laws might In looked up before long, added to the I preparations to build an Independent ' railroad to tidewater, suddenly changed . "natural conditions" wonderfully. The monthly output has been ordered in- : creased, locomotives are loading up with anthracite again and the trust managers ! appear very solicitous of the welfare of coal region towns. Very remarkable this Is. Those lfepiihlicans who think that Congressman Williams did not cm ; enough ligiire at Washington to entitle I him to a renomination arc looking about for some one to concentrate their \ strength upon, and tho name of John I Mark In has been suggested. Inasmuch as it Is tho avowed policy of tliu party in ' Luzornn to nominate no man for con gress who is not a coal operator, the suggestion has been favorably received j by Williams' opponents. On the other side, since it Is officially announced that John M. Carman's duties as state chair- i man will not permit him to bo the Demo- I cratlc nominee. Heorge Markle has been ! seriously considered as the man most i likely to carry tho district for the Demo- i crats. It Is quite possible that botli j brothers may lie taken up as standard- | bearers by their respective parties, ami i in such on event Luzerne would witness j a rare political contest for the congres sional plum. When the now county hill Is intro duced in the next legislature there should be less heard of It as "Quay" county than on former occasions. This name was never sanctioned by the ' people of the territory to he included, and instead of ever helpfug the measure in legislative circles It has acted al all times as a inill-stune. The prospects of the new county bill going through both houses again are better than ever, and whether Jonks, Stone or Swallow is in the governor's chair after January l next the act will be judged according to to Its merits, not, as in 1897, by the title a few of its advocates gave it. Therefore, it is necessary that a name j should he selected which- can ho upheld by the people after the act becomes a I 'aw. This would not ho the case with such a name as "Qnav." I THE GAME OF CnAPS. T It Originated Juat After the Civil War When the Darky Had Idle Time. The Southern negro trusts fortune with all the blind faith of a little child. He carries a buckeye for sore eyes, a potato for rheumatism, a wisp of hair from the tail of a black dog for pains I in the back, a voodoo charm to protect him against the machinations of his enemies, and a rabbit's foot for luck. With this collection in his pocket he goes confidently forth to woo the fickle goddess Chance. But not in cards or in twirling wheels or in any of the de vices known to the devotee of Monte Carlo does he put his trust, and not j even the great American game of poker | has any fascination for him. But in craps, played in his own remarkable way. he delights. Who invented it and when or whert it originated no one can say, but soon after the close of the war, when the ue- I gro for the first time in his life could taste the sweets of idleness —and a de licious morsel It was and is—this allur ing device for causing coins to change pockets started, and it spread like a contagious fever. The Greeks named all the numbers on the dice after gods, goddesses and heroes, the lucky num ber being called Aphrodite, and the : negro likewise has a name for every ■ possible combination of numbers, al though his are not so classical as those jof the cultured Greeks. Three he calls "Free;" four, "Little Joe;" five, I "Phoebe;" six, "Jimmy Hicks;" nine, "Liz," and ten, "Big Tom." The rules of the game are few and j simple. The first player takes two dice and shaking them violently in the palm of his hand calls out: "A nickel —put up." Another answers, "I fade you," which, being translated, means, "I cover your money." The onlookers also take a hand In the betting, the one who bets with the player being said to "like him." Every thing being in readiuess, the player drops the dice as if they burnt him, crying: "Come seben-eleben." If he makes seven or eleven, he wins. If he throws the unlucky numbers, two, three or twelve, ho loses or "craps out," but If any of the other combin ations of numbers are turned he makes his "point," and has another throw. Now, the "fader" who has covered the player's money reaches out and picks up the dice with the announcement, | "My dice." After making this state ment he eooly proceeds to carefully ex amine them to see if they are loaded, and, satisfied on this point, hands them back to the player. This iB allowable j just after the first throw, but after this it is an insult to the player again to question their genuineness, and if it is done a fight is the result. The player having scored a point the first time, the excitement becomes In tense. The white teeth of all are shin ing, their eyes rolling until they seem like ovals of Ivory set with a black bead and their heads commence to wag from side to side. The player holds bis breath and not a word Is spoken by those around him as he rat tles the dice. It is the critical moment. If he can make his "point" before he throws seven he wins, but if seven comes first he is undone. The bet tors surreptitiously run their hands In thoir pockets and feel for a rabbit's foot. Suddenly the player blows upon the dice in his hand, gives a deep gutteral grunt, and cries excitedly: "Come to see me, little Joe." The "fader" keeps repeating: "Cut him off, seben. Cut his throat, lucky seben. Jump under him, seben." There Is ail exclamation front the "fader," a triumphant laugh from the player. He has made his point. There Is an exchunge of dirty nickels, and a grunt or two from the losers. The player Is getting warmed up. H takes off his coat, rolls up his sleeves, and spits on his tiande. Lovingly he fondles the dice; luck is with him. The spectators draw closer and watch with increased Interest. Hy the rules of the game he will he allowed to throw until he "craps out," and, elated hy his suc cess, he shakes the dice and calls: "A dime—come up with a dime." With some grumbling the "fader" j obeys. The player drops the dice, at - the same time snapping the fingers of his other hand, a sure way of bringing luck, and again the money Is his. The game now goes on quickly and he wins again and again, until many of the bel i tors are compelled to drop out. Soon the hand of the player trembles as he | reaches for the ivories, and he takes out his rabits foot and rubs it on them. [ "Dat nlggah was born in de full of | de moon. He's bound to halt luck," j some one prophesies, and the player smiles. As he drops the dice there are imploring cries or "Come seben-eleb j en," "Come twelve," "Two, free it is." ! It is nine, and the thrower adds quickly: "Liz is de gal fer me," a saying that always accompanies that throw. Once more the dice roll upon the ground and "Jimmy Hteks" Is the throw. "Big Six, take my gal to Memphis," the player entreats, for there are cer tain propitiatory expressions that must he used when these numbers are I turned. The bettors crowd so close j to him that he scarcely has room to move his arm, and their faces are bent almost upon the ground. One tali, ragged fellow, who has parted with his last nickel, stands disconsolately upon the outskirts of the circle, ills hands in his empty pockets. Suddenly there is a warning whistle from the sentinels, the player hastily transfers the dice to his mouth, thus ! stopping an oath, and a moment later j when a policeman comes in sight be I 6ees only an innocent-looking group | of negroes strolling to meet him. HIS ADVICE —DON'T. He fleked up and said: "Stranger, you've seen a lion, 1 reck on' ■-■ in "Oh, yea." •" f - "Seen 'em caged and looking as harmless as cats?" "Yes; they generally look that way." "That's the way I sized up one In a cago In a circus. He lay there, looking so sleepy and good-natured and barm less that I thought It was a swindle on the public and I'd try to rouse him a bit." "And so you poked him?" I queried. "No, sir, no poking. I Jest calcula ted to gin his tail about three twists and make him feel that life wasn't all beef and bones and sunshine. I wait ed for my chance *nd then I reached my hand in. How far is it from a 11- on'B mouth to the middle of his tail?" "Several feet at l^ast." "I thought It wa= about a rod, but I know better now. I hadn't more'n got hold of his tail whra he got hold of me and wus gulpln* down them raissin' fingers. He wanted the hull hand and arm, but they beat him off. I thought at first I wouldn't '■xpluin matters, but then I thought I wculd. I look a good deal like a fool, don't I?" "Hardly that." "Well, you do, and that's why I ex plained. I was fool 'nuff to want to twist u lion's tail, and you may be fool 'nuff to want to p ke one in the eye, and so my advice 's —don't." How Tlioy Love i;cTi Other.

"I didn't want to keep you waiting, Mr. Western!, so I came down Just as I was," said Miss Darlington, sweetly, as she entered the parlor. "Oh, what a whopper!" exclaimed her small brother. "You know you on ly had on"— And then Tommy was violently hus tled out of the room. His Philosophy. "And so, Pat, you think Dennis had the wrong side of the argument? But what reason have you to be so sure of this?" "Faith, he hadn't another worrud to say after 01 hit him wld me first brick." Pools. We hear of people every day Who overstep the rules. And, by their doings, show that they are various kinds of fools. The woman in flesh colored tights Who dances, kicks and Hlngs; The man that on the frail trapeze So perilously swings; The brazen one who stands before A multitude, and twists A slimy snake about her neck; The tough with heavy flats, Who meets another in the ring. And pounds him till he dies; The man that on a parachute Drops from the starry skies— These and a hundred others we fxiok at in speechless awe. And then declare them all to be The biggest fools we ever saw. But, after all is said and done. Is the fool that thrills us so More foolish than the gaping one Who pays to see the show? LONDON'S LATEST PASTIME, Fencing M nn After-Dinner Amuae ment for I.atllea. Fencing promises to become more and more of a fashionable pastime in Ixmdon, especially among the fair sex. The authority for this statement Is Mr. Mcpherson, a professor of the art. who is Just now taking part in a series of brilliant ussauts d'armes In Paris, and whose presence among the cham pion swordsmen has given rather aa International aspect to some of the bouts. "In addition to the usual orthodox iisplays In the fencing rooms In Lion- Ion," he told a Dally Mail representa tive, "it is becoming frequent to see after-dinner bouts In the circles of the elite between a couple of expert fenc ers engaged for the occasion—a form of amusement which may yet disturb the serenity of the other lions, the German pianist and the Italian vlolin .Bt. ] "There is especially a movement among the fair sex strongly In favor of the foils. After all, nothing is more | graceful in the world than the silhou ette lunge brilliantly executed in a short skirt and gymnastic shoes. And besides, the exercise develops muscle, and that's what the sex goes in for nowadays. "At least one lady fencer, Miss Low thcr," continued Mr. McPherson, "is more than a match for the best ama teur In England, and the equal of most of the professors. She has practiced fencing almost from childhood. More j than one lady in Ixmdon teaches the art, and altogether there are more j ladles practicing fencing in London than men. This result is partly due to the enthusiastic advocacy of the foils I by lady Colin Campbell, who Is herself an expert. Mrs. Ixingtry Is, of course, well known as another, and other ac tresses less known are diligent stu dents. "The Italian school of fencing pre vails rather too much In Ixmdon, and as the reproduction IB only more or less like the original, London fencing leaves much to be desired. Certain umateurs, however, stand out brilliant j ly—Capt. Hutton, Mr. Egerton-Castle, ! and Sir Charles Dilke. The last named is indefatigable, and is well known in I Paris for his prowess, i "Paris Is, after all," he added, "the home of the foils. Whereas there are hardly more than halt a dozen good salles d'armes in Ixmdon there are Bome hundred and fifty in Paris, and ' the virtuosity of the exponents is pret ty much in the same ratio. Rue, Pre , vost, Klrchoffqr, Conte the Italian, and young Desmedt, the Belgian, are the present stars of the professional Arma ment. "Latterly in France the foils have yielded in some quarters to the dueling sword, in which the play is notably different. Thomeguex, for instance, j who fought Pini, is not a marvel with the foils, but one of the most redoubt able of opponents with the sword, and | especially when the wigs are on the 1 green." j There is a prospect of London seeing some of the champions mentioned at a tournumeut to take place at one of the sporting clubs. Hygienic Five O'clock Ten. No woman with any regard for her 'digestion will drink tea*at an afternoon reception unless she arrives Just after the samovar has been lighted and sees the teamaker put the fragrant herb In the pot. When tea is left standing tor hours, as is usually the case at ah afternoon at home, it becomes tanic acid pure and simple, and is almost as effective In wearing away the coating of the stomach as any other corrosive poison. For promoting Indigestion and gastric disturbances tea that has "cooked" for a whole afternoon 1s quite unexcelled by even bakers' pies or hot biscuits. A clever device Introduced at a wo man's club to obviate the calamity of every member becoming a dyspeptic Is the tarlatan tea ball. A sufficient quantity of tea to make a teapot full of the cheering beverage is placed In the teapot. The tea is enclosed in a little bag of tarlatan and as soon as :he liquid has "drawn" the bag is Ashed out and thrown away. When the tea pot is empty a new tea bag IB put in, ind fresh tea made. One result of this hygienic precaution Is that the club in qucßtlon evinces as much Interest in its 5 o'clock rite as it does in speeches and discussions, thus bringing the mem bers into closer touch with each other than they would be if all their time and energies were expended in political pother. llow to UnnrA Dcanly. A clever writer says worry is a mor tal enemy to beauty and charm of man | ner. This is undeniably true. Worry over the Inevitable Is not only a wrin kle Inducer and frown instigator, but , It Is a senseless and wicked rebellion against what cannot be helped. Worry : clouds the eyes, makes the voice sharp and impatient, puts hard lines about the mouth and destroys repose and gentleness of manner. Whatever Is, Is best. Therefore one would best con trol one's feelings and learn as soon as possible to know that bright eyes, sweet voices and smiles about the mouth will add much to one's beauty and to one's circle of friends.

A group of British officers were seat ed In the quarters of one of their num ber in the garrison of Calcutta. Chester Ashby, captain of dragoons, seemed the most deeply Interested. "It Is certainly strange," observed a young lieutenant, "where Miss Blatch ford could have disappeared to. That it is a case of abduction there Is little doubt In my mind, but who Is there who would dure to perpetrate such a crime?" "I know not, Will," returned Ashby, "but as sure us there is a heaven above us I will find her, if I have to search through every palace and hovel in In dia. Gentlemen, she 1b my affianced bride, and dead or alive find he* I will." As the young Boldler crossed the par ude ground a white robed,~dusky form followed closely behind him. When the two reached a spot where the light which streamed from the barrack win dows did not penetrate, the nutive touched the European gently and whis pered: "Would Ashby sahib find the lost maiden? If so. All can direct him to where she lingers." "What? You?" "Sahib, she Is even now a prisoner in the palace of the rapah of Judpore." "What! In the power of that heathen prince! By my sword, I'll go to the colonel at once and ask permission to order out my dragoons and tear his glittering abode down about his ears." "Stay, salilb!" quickly rejoined tho faithful servant. "If English soldiers were seen about the palace of the rajah the feeble spark of life which still flut ters In the bosom of the white maiden would die." "What! Would the villain murder her?" "Sabib! All has said the maiden would die and leave- no trace of her death. Listen, sahib. The slaves of the rajah are the friends of All, and it Is they who have told him of their master's captive. Would Ashby sahib enter the palace of the rajah unaccom panied, save by Ail?" • • • • "Why does the light of the rajah's eyes weep? It should bring Joy to the heart to be the chosen one of so great a lord," and a lovely Hindoo girl knelt at the feet of Agnes Blatchford, who was sobbing bitterly. She offered no reply to the kindly meant speech of her companion. Pres ently the damask portiere at one end of the salon was lifted and the rajah himself entered. "When will the light of my life cease weeping? And when will a smile adorn the face of her who is loved by the rajah of Judpore?" Agnes Blatchford sprang to her feel, and, turning upon her persecutor, ex claimed, "Never, wretch, never, until she is restored to the home of her fath er." The native prince might have made answer had it not been for the entrance of a sable Nubian, who, falling Aat up on liis face, begged forgiveness for the intrusion. "Speak, slave. What would you at this time?" "Most mighty and powerful rajah," said the black. "Will It please the son of a king to look upon that which his servant has brought him?" "The curiosity of the rajah Is arous ed. Let him see." The Nubian arose and left the apart ment but reappeared in a moment, ush ering in a closed palanquin, which was borne upon the shoulders of four blacks like himself. A sardonic smile played about the lips of the rajah as lie stepped forward to lift the rich curtain of the litter. The next moment he started hark in horror with his right hand clasping the hilt of his scimeter. But before he could draw the blade the sword of Capt. Ashby was at his throat. "Wretch!" exclaimed the soldier, "Were you a Christian 1 would award you a moment to make your peace with the Almighty! But, infidel dog that you are, look your last upon things earthly, for your time has come!" The rajah essayed to call for assist ance, but the call died away upon his lips, for his eyes fell upon a body of dragoons that were rapidly Ailing the apartment. Lieut. Carleton sprang forward and struck up the blade of his captain. "Your pardon, sir! Do not forget and overstep your authority. This ra jah Is u man of high position. The British Government should deal with him." "Lieutenant, I thank you," returned the captain, with more composure. "Secure our royal prisoner well. I hold you responsible for his safety." It was now that Capt. Ashby Afst seemed to take notice of the girl whom he had rescued. Springing to her side, disregarding the presence of his sol diers, the captain clasped her in his arms. The faithful Alt had, as he said, ob tained the Information as to the where abouts of the young English girl from the servants of the native prince, who without exception, hated the tyrannical despot. It was he who suggested to th# captain to effect the rescue of Miss Blatchford by entering the abode in a palanquin, for he felt that if his mas ter could reach the side of the young lady hs could protect her from the fury of the rajah until his soldiers could gain an entrance and come to the sup port.
