Not so very 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.

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. Tovrist. 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 with several other ladies, near this city, yesterday, Mrs. J. Hanson was bitten by a rattlesnake. Her screams called the at tention of her companions, who went to 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.
