OLD JANUARY’S LAST DAYS.
Jra Janree, After Many Vicissitudes of
Fortune, Dying at Last with Not
Enough Money to Bury Him.
From the New York Times.
A T rin with a soubriquet, unless it be of
the ominous “Dick Deadeye” order, is gen
erally popular with his associates, and Ira
Janree, the veteran gambler, familiarly
known in the sporting world as “Old Janu
dry,” who died Monday in his apartments
in the Gedney House, was no exception to
the rule. It takes something very much
out of the ordinary run to disturb the
equipoise of the professional gambler, but
the news that “Old January” had passed
away, and, still worse, the report that he
had died in poverty, produced a shock in
second-story establishments in Barclay
street and Park Place.
The wasted, yet still commanding, figure
of the old man was seen on the Clifton race
track as late as two weeks ago, and the
familiar pleasantry that “no race could
start until Old January reached the track”
was quoted then as often before. It was
the last time, however. Next day and
thenceforward the races were started with
out him. The disease which had been sap
ping his life for six years liad taken the
form of galloping consumption, and he was
seen on tne race track no more.
Ira Janree was born sixty-eight years ago
,in an inland town of this State. He began
business life as a driver on the Erie Canal,
and was then promoted to be helmsman of
a l >oat. Later on he came to New York,
and was for some years card writer at the
St. Nicholas Hotel. About 1853 he entered
upon his career as a gambler, and even
tually, in partnership with Elwood, more
commonly known as Eddy Cline, opened a
gambling house on the southeast corner of
Fulton street and Broadway. Business
was good in those days, and when the firm
■was dissolved by Cline’s death,
he left a snug fortune of $200,000,
and Janree was believed to be the owner of
a “pile” of about the same size. He after
ward opened a place at 573 Broadway,
which was the resort of Southerners, who
were then flush of money and helped to
swell the pile. Later on Janree ran a large
establishment at 5 Barclay street. His last
Slace was on Twenty-eighth street, near
ixth avenue, which he ran up to about six
years ago. This was one of the most hand
somely furnished gambling houses ever seen
in this city, and the suppers supplied nightly
to patrons were of the finest.
There were ups and downs in Jauree’s
career, and while it is a fact that at one
time he was worth nearly $500,000, there
were many other times when force of cir
cumstances placed him on the opposite side
of the gaming table to the profitable one
which he usually graced as proprietor.
There were also many times when he retired
from a siege with ‘“the tiger” with only an
unlit cigar, held very tightly between firmly
closed teeth, as the proceeds of a “session”
which had been begun with capital vary
ing from a borrowed trifle to several
thousand dollars. He was a hot and fierce
player, pressing his luck with determina
tion, tempered by coolness, and whenever
he faced the dealer, the latter kne t that dis
aster to the house was by no means a dis
tant possibility. He fought until the last
chip was gone, and on one memorable occa
sion he took a desperate chance subsequent
to that climax of misfortune. The story is
a classic in New York gambling circles, and
this is how the old man used to tell it among
old friends when the conversation turned
upon the vicissitudes of their peculiar pro
fession:
“I had been,” he would say, “in bad luck
for some time, but had managed to raise a
stake one day and visited old Dancer’s place
on Broadway, near Bond street. It took me
but a short time to lose my pile, and I left
and went into the street. On the corner of
Broadway I met a little girl selling rolls of
lozenges. I had only a few cents in my
pocket, and I invested them in lozenges and
began eating them. I can’t tell how it hap
pened. but the first thing I knew I was
standing alongside of the bank.
Next thing I knew I had for
fun placed one of the lozenges, cop
pered, on the nine. The nine lost, and the
dealer, thinking the lozenge was a split dol
lar chip, and paid it with a real split. I ate
up the lozenge, and, playing the chip open,
won again. Luck came my way, and in half
an hour I was several hundred dollars to the
good. Then I cashed my chips and went
out into the cool air to rest a while. I went
back, and before I left the table that night
I had about $3,500. The next day I went
back, and the next, and before a week was
over I had quite a nice sum of money.”
Just how much the ultimate winnings
which resulted from the coppered lozenge
amounted to the old man never told, but it
is believed that $30,000 was not far off,
certain it is that, when the story got abroad
among the fraternity and Dancer heard of
it, he became furiously angry, and to the
last he never forgave Janree.
Janree was a level-headed man, but he
made the great mistake of his life when he
allowed himself to become infatuated with
betting against the books Confining him
self to the phases of gambling with which
he was by education familiar, and at which
he was a natural adept, he was almost uni
formly successful. With a love for
horse racing he very easily became
a devotee to gambling on the races,
and that proved his ruin. His losses on the
turf cost him his handsome Twenty-eighth
street establishment, and thenceforward lie
cut a figure quite at variance with that he
displayed in his palmy days. He stuck,
however, with characteristic pertinacity to
the unfamiliar form of gambling, which
hail fascinated him and was in constant at
tendance at all the meetings of the East.
The result was as might have been ex
pected. Occasionally he made a handsome
winning. On one occasion he cleared
SB,OOO on a horse called Jake White at Mon
mouth, but this was only a delusive eddy in
the course of his luck. The current was all
the other way, and the result was impover
ishment.
Another story told of him, which illus
trates the vicissitudes of gambling life, is to
the effect that on one occasion he won $lB,-
000 at a sitting, drew the money, and con
verted it into government bonds, with the
intention of taking it home and instructing
his wife to apply them to “taking a plaster”
(lifting a mortgage) off his house. He was
delayed on the way home, and conceived the
idea of improving upon his good luck. He
played again, the result being that those
bonds never reached the wife’s hands, and
the “plaster” was not removed from the
house.
Two years ago Janree married a young
Wife, who cared for him tenderly and was
with him when he died. “I am afraid she
is left destitute,” said a well-known gambler
yesterday, “but if this is so, the gamblers
will not let her remain so. the was a good
wife to‘Old January,’ and though people
who don't know us may not think so, we
don't allow such people to suffer. No; and
I wish you would say that if it is true that
the old man was in destitute circumstances,
which Ido not believe, he would not have
been thus if we had known of it. We
would have been glad to have given him a
good funeral, but ne had expressed a desire
to lie buried by his Masonic brethren, who
havo already taken his body in charge and
had it removed to Senior’s undertaking
establishment.”
FACING A MOUNTAIN LION.
Thrilling Experience of a Hunter In
the Rockies.
From the American Agriculturist.
With well-bitted horses, a complete outfit
and “Uncle” Pierson as guide, wo left Lara
mie City, W. TANARUS., on a bright afternoon for
the game parks of Colorado and Utah.
“Tim” Foley, one of the original proprietors
of the California Gulch (Leadville), and
consequently possessing untold wealth, had
come from his remote Green river cattle
ranch to join us on this hunt. Auditor
Weston, or Nebraska, brought with him his
son Ralph, to indulge in some general “fron
tierism” before entering college life. The
writer was full of the zest and buoyancy
which these far Wastern trips invariably
impart. Through the peculiar hazy at
mosphere of the plains. Sheep Mountain
looked distant only a half hour’s drive. But
it was twilight before we camped on the
base, and we had traveled between twenty
and thirty miles. The hindquarters of two
jock rabbits graced our spit that night, and
what with good appetites and a free use of
salt and pepper our hungry stomachs were
readily able to overcome the characteristic
toughness and tension of these jacks. We
were glad enough to get them before our ex
pedition ended. Before sunrise the next
morning we had “struck” camp and were
on the move, and all day long we broke the
stillness with frequent discharges of our
Winchesters and Sharp’s rifles at the dis
tant antelope.
Just at dusk we drew up at Pinkham’s
ranch, in North Park, and were glad enough
to avail ourselves of the hospitalities there
extended us. Every one slept soundly that
night; the couches, rude as they were, being
a decided improvement over the bare ground
of the night Before. At daybreak we were
again under way, and soon our first antelope
was brought down. Later on in the day we
encountered these creatures in large droves,
and apparently, as never before, manifested
no little curiosity, frequently waiting
until we were right among them before
starting, and then retreating only a short
distance to stop and observe our movements.
We could have shot them as readily then as
sheep in a barnfold. A few miles further
southward, and we were in the very heart
of a game region. Elk, deer, antelope, wild
geese and ducks, sage hens and mountain
grouse, were seen day after day, until we
were fairly surfeited with shooting, and for
a change devoted ourselves to sight-seeing.
After reaching the summit of the moun
tains and feasting our vision for some hours
we began the descent, which was very diffi
cult, inasmuch as falling rain froze as it fell.
I took my cartridges from my Winchester,
fearing lest I might slip and discharge them.
When half way down the mountain we
reached a small plateau in the center of
which was a clump of cottonwood trees.
Ralph was perhaps three rods ahead and
Foley fifteen paces. I turned from the
path to this clump of trees for a moment,
thinking perha;>s I might start a cinnamon
bear. Judge of my dismay when a Rocky
Mountain lion suddenly sprang from the
thicket, resting upon a broken tree not
twenty feet away, and savagely glaring
upon me, apparently prepared to spring
upon the intruder who bad entered his lair.
It was a most exciting moment. I quickly
brought my rifle to my shoulde •, and aim
ing between his eyes, drew the trigger to no
effect. Again and again I attempted to dis
charge the rifle, forgetting in the suspense
that the cartridges had been withdrawn. It
was, indeed, a trying ordeal. If I stopped
to remove what was an imperfect cartridge,
and substitute another one, or, if I turned
and fled, the glaring creature, who looked
to me as big as a buffalo, would pounce
upon me and tear me to pieces in a jiffy'. I
did neither, but fortunately had sufficient
presence of mind remaining to whistle in a
low tone to Foley, just ahead. He turned,
and taking in the situation at a glance,
quick as a lightning flash, sent a bullet
through the animal’s heart. “You look a
little pale, Mr. Judd,” he exclaimed in a hu
morous manner, as he quietly came back to
me. “I don’t think you can blame anybody
for being pale under the cir umstances.” I
responded. It was very fortunate for me
that I had no bullet in my rifle; being in
such close proximity, I should undoubtedly
have shot high above the point aimed at,
and barely grazed his skull, when the then
wounded and consequently infuriated ani
mal ivould have jumped and finished me in
short order. On inspecting the surround
ings we found the remains of n antelope
close by, upon which the now dead “enemy”
had gorged himself. lam told that when
near evening one of these mountain Rons
delivers its peculiar roar the antelope for a
long distance are fairly terrorized and flee
for miles.
Ancient and Modern Meteors.
From the Boston Transcript.
Since Pliny’s time, there has been a long
record of aerolites, which aremore exactly
described, and no museum is so poor that
it does not exhibit one or more specimens of
those visitors from unknown space. About
the oldest known specimen is one weighing
280 pounds, which fell at Alsace in 1492.
which is still preserved in the church at
Ensisbeim. The largest masses on record
were found about seventeen years ago on
the west coast of Greenland by the Swedish
Arctic Expedition. There is now in the col
lection of the Royal Academy of Stock
holm one of them which weighs 25 tons,
and the museum of Copenhagen has an
other weighing 10 tons. In the British
Museum is one weighing 5 tons, and in the
museum at St. Petersburg, one of 1,635
pounds. The Smithsonian Institution, at
Washington, has very remarkable specimen
discovered in Mexico, in 1700, which, ac
cording to an Indian tradition, fell 200 years
before that, during a shower of stones. Its
weight is 1,400 pounds. There are over one
hundred specimens in Yale College museum,
one weighing 1,635 pounds. During the
present century aerolites have been carefully
studied and analyzed, and indeed, aside
from the general outside appearance by
which they are readily recognized byan ex
pert, a chemical analysis is the one sure test
by which they can be distinguished in
doubtful cases/ In many cases they are
largely composed of iron, and from one
which fell in Mexico, a sword blade was
made, which once was in the possession of
Gen. Ord, of the United States Army. The
origin of these mysterious visitors has been
widely discussed, but never thoroughly ex
plained. Of the various theories there are
two which attract the most belief. One
that space is filled with floating masses and
that our aerolites are that portion of them
that comes within the sphere of the earth’s
attraction. The other is that they are pro
jected from the sun and other planets by
the inconceivably tremendous forces at
work there. A few years ago some excite
ment was created by the claim of a German
scientist that he had discovered traces of
animal life in aerolite, but this was never
confirmed. The report concerning the phe
nomenon of Thursday evening stites thut
the mass was still verv hot., so much so that
people could not approach within 50 feet.
In a modified degree we believe that this is
the condition in which others have been
found in this country and elsewhere. It is
strange that in the fall of so -many large
massses with such tremendous force there
has never been any well authenticated case
of loss of life. There have been reports
of fatalities resulting from this cause, but
wo believe they have never been con
firmed.
Mrs. Jam son’s ftrange Experience.
From the Boston Traveler.
“The Story of au Enthusiast,” which was
published recently, is written by Mrs. C. V.
Jainis in, of New Orleans, the author of
“Woven of Many Threads,” and of many
short stories of exceptional power, one of
which is “The Drinkwater Tragedy,” pub
lished in Harper's Magazine a few years
since. Mrs. Jamison his the temperament
of the dramatic novelist. Her organiza
tion is singularly responsive to invisible and
mysterious influences. When visiting Bos
ton last summer Mrs. Jamison related to
the writer a curious incident of her
childhood. Sho was entering the parlor
and saw before her a man in mili
tary dress who seemed entirely at home in
the"room, and the little girl supposed he was
a caller and thought no more of it at the
time. Bator she asked her mother who the
stranger was, describing the military cos
tume, but no one in the house knew of him
or had seen him. Some time later the girl
discovered among some old family iiortraits
at the house of a relative, which she hud
never before secn, the exact portrait of the
man whom she saw in her mother’s parlor,
and learned that he was an ancestor of the
family. There is no doubt that the finer
perceptions which take cognizance of things
invisible toothers are a genuine endowment
of certain organization.-, and wheu accom
panied with the distinctive literary faculty
such writers give the perfection of imagina
tive romance.
