Florldn is now the land of hotels as well

long ago 1 made a trip into the interior
ana stopped at the big hotel of a small
♦own. C’ol. Culpepper Jones was the pro
prietor. and had cliaractensties that mark
ed him ns a man more prominent than any
of his fellow-townsmen. When I register
ed the colonel came in and noted that i
was front New York. He unbuttoned his
linen duster, put his wide-brimmed strnw
hat on the desk and welcomed me:
“Glad you’ve come; weare full, very full,
but I’ll make room for you. We keep a

Pl How long he would have continued to
Buff his hotel I have no idea; I cut him
short by asking him to come and drink
With me. He stared at me in amazement.
“There ain’t anything in this town but
Jamaica ginger to drink: and I ain’t got no
cramp,” said he. in a sad voice.
I answered that my stomach, too, was
free from pain and wanted no hot bath. I
added sarcastically: “Colonel, I never
knew a ‘swell hotel’ to be without good
whisky.” , ,
He never replied but took my arm and
marched me out on the piazza. He then
stood before me in n proud, defiant way,
slowly buttoned his linen duster and pulled
his hat far down over his eyes. Marching
up closelv he whispered: “I have good
whisky, out few know it. That elcrc of
mine does not know it; 1 keep it hid in
e soon tried the contents of ft jug on
tan. The colonel became communicative
and said that he had a fine young man
boarding with him who had been looking
for cheeks for two months.
“He is a prince, sir; dresses well, shoots
true to the mark and doesn’t care for ex
penses,” he added to counteract the cnect
his remark about checks might have
^“You don’t mean a prince of nobility, a
real article, do you?” I asked.
He said no, only a prince in bis dashing
Way and style. I concluded the young
man was simply a beat and never would
receive any checks.
THE COLONEL AH A POKER PLAYER.
Col. Culpeper Jones was a widower and
had one daughter, old enough to vote.
She had red hair and freckles on her rat her
pretty face. Her name was Melvina Fay
Jones, but the boys in the town cnlled her
“old Cul’s daughter.” Hhe danced well,
read Seaside Library novels ami played a
little on the piano. If the Colonel loved
anything better than a stiff game of poker
it was his daughter. Nobody in town
could beat the Colonel at poker, and lie
Was acknowledged to lie the best player in
that section, if not in the state. Every
night after supper he gathered about him
a few novices ami taught them the mys
teries of poker at five cents ante ami a
quarter of a dollar limit.
“I’m just teaching these fellows, and of
course I don’t play a sure enough game.
Of course I win the little dabs put up; I
could shut my eyes and do that,” the
colonel would say to the bystanders.
He had a colored boy trained to wait
upon the card-table. Whenever Culpeper
was dry he called for Jamaica ginger.
“Any you hoys have a drap?” he would
ask, shuttling the cards. They all took
“a drap,” but the colonel took good whis
ky all the same, while the boys gulped
down the fiery Jamaica ginger. 1 became
deeply interested in Colonel Culpeper’s
daily diversions and the young man who
acted like a “prince.” After a week’s stay
I discovered that the young prince affected
It fancy for Miss Melvina Fay Jones, and
that she reciprocated his royal attentions.
The prince wasn’t bad looking at all. Ho had
a good address and I imagined that he was
some wealthy man’s son on a lark. He
called Col. Jones “Col. Cul,” and abbre
viated two names of all those lie came in
contact with, even addressiong Miss Jones
as Miss Melt He got along swimmingly.
“Col. Cul” loaned him two hundred dol
lars besides the two months’ board bill lie
owed. Ho monopolized the colonel’s
buggy, but that was all right, because he
always took the'fuir Miss Jones with him.
I never saw the “prince” playing poker
with the colonel. The hotel clerk ex
plained it by saying Unit it “ain’tpolicy for
a good poker player to loan money to those
he plays agin.” lie further added that
Kernal Culpeper “didn't want to roll his
guests; that no man in Florida could hold
him a candle in draw, poker.”
HOW THE PRINCE PAID It 18 BOARD.
I wondered how the prince would man- j
age to settle his board hill Ho owed the
colonel $500, counting all his expenses. I
One evening the colonel was entertaining I
his pupils nl draw poker, when the prince |
gayly tripped in ami said
“All there, ‘Col. Cul’?”
Before the colonel could answer, I lie
prince continued: “You sent me my bill
to-day, $500. I got a cheek to-day for
41000. Now I'll play you freeze out poker
to see whether 1 give, you nothing or
$1000?” •
The audacity of 'such a proposition al
most took the breath away from the
champion poker player. He buttoned up
his linen duster and winked to the colored
boy to bring Jamaica ginger.
“What have you been drinking?" gasped
the colonel.
“The same ns you, ‘Col. Cul,’ Jamaica
ginger,” he answered, slapping him oil the
shoulder.
“But it will be robbery to take your
$1000,” bottstingly said the colonel.
“That is all right, ‘Col. Cul;’ I am of age
and want no guardian," was the reply.
“You hear that, gentlemen? lie "dares
me to play. I'll just take in your boodle.”
The prince took a sent opposite the re
nowned player. Twenty chips were
counted out to each, and the paper resem
bling a check put oil the table under a
weight. The game began by the colonel’s
ordering Jamaica ginger lor all liis pupils,
who stood around, as I did, interested in
the outcome of the game. The
prince said he didn’t desire any
Jamaica ginger and winked at the colored
boy. He then put up one chip and
the colonel dealt the cards. The colonel
came in with his blind and the prince
threw down his hand, giving up his ante.
Tlie prince shuffled the cards carlessly and
dealt. Both came in and drew cards'.
“I bet you nineteen chips,” coolly said
the prince, putting them up.
The colonel slowly looked at his draw-
curds and said: “I stand the raise, and
only wish I hud $100 more margin to go on;
I'd make you pay me $1100 .instead of
$1000.”
“As you wish, I'll take it out in board,”
responded the young man.
“Good; it's a call, then,” eagerly said
the champion player.
“It is.”
“Four kings and an ace,” shouted the
colonel as he reached for the check.
“I have a royal straight Hush uud take
the pot,” calmly remarked the prince as
he took down the cheek.
The colonel wilted, and finally raised up
in his chair and said :
“We only play four aeesin Florida.”
“But, ‘Col. Cully,’ you didn't have four
aces, you had four kings and an ace,”
jocosely replied the young fellow. That
young man owns half of the hotel Holl
and has married Miss Mel. Whether he
put up the cards on the colonel, or
whether the check was genuine, are idle
questions now. Col. Culueper Jones savs
his son-iu-Jaw can teach poker.

Nnninamliull.tlr Vagaries.
Brooklyn Magazine.
Few things are so proverbially notorious
as the vagaries of somnambulists. Willie
those addicted to sleep-walking will oft-
times perform the most natural things, it
| is nevertheless true that they will frequent-
I tv perform the most foolish things. Petrus,
! for example, writes of a young man who
| was accustomed rise in Lis sleep, climb
on to his castle battlements, scat himself
' astride them, and then spur and whip the
I wall, under the impression that he was
I mounted upon his steed. Not long ago, a
| well-known Knglish divine was discovered
' at 1 o’clock in the morning in a neighbor’s
garden engaged in prayer, evidently
under the impression that he wai
in church, but otherwise in a deep
sleep. It is likewise related of I)r. Hay
cock, the eminent Oxford clergyman, that
he would often rise from his bed at night,
give out his text, and, while sound asleep,
deliver an excellent sermon upon it. He
was frequently watched, but no amount of
tugging, pulling or pinching ever succeed
ed in rousing him. Dr. Macnish, of Edin
burgh, gives an account of an Irish gentle
man who swam more than two miles down
a river, got ashore and was subsequently
discovered sleeping by the roadside, al
though unconscious of the extraordinary
feat he had accomplished. An incident
of a young girl, a victim of disturbed
sleep, residing in Boston, is told that
she would very often rise during the
night, and, although sound asleep, would
waltz around her chamber in the most
grnceful manner and go through the fig
ures of a quadrille with the utmost precis
ion. A prominent physician had a patient
who was particularly fond of horses, and
while indisposed upon a certain occasion,
rose at night, found his way to the stable,
saddled his horse, enjoyed n gallop, and
finally came back, knocking at his own
front door in a soiniiamhulistic condition.
Of the causes that predispose to sleep
walking little is known with certainty, but
it might safely be affirmed that indiges
tion and a nervous organization liavea
good deni more to do with it than remorse.

Oakland, 111.—While gathering berries

yesterday, Mrs. J. Hanson was bitten by a

her assistance. She was placed ill a wagon
and started lor her home, but before she
arrived she died. Her left limb, which was
bitten, swelled to enormous proportions
before deatli ensued.

being bitten, by the management of Mrs.
