Death Of Little
Wyley TL. ‘Ballard
Wyley Estelle, 3-year-old-son of Mr.
and Mrs. John L. Ballard, died yes
terday afternoon at their home on
Brunei street. The little fellow had
been desperately ill for several days,
and his death was not unexpected.
The death of this-bright little child
came as a great shock to the fond par
ents. The Herald deeply sympathizes
with the bereaved ones.
The funeral services were con
ducted at the residence at 3 o'clock

The Taste Of A
Gamblers Passion
At first we played cards merely for
the sake of passing time. Then, as
the Aasto for it grew, we staked small
sums of money to Increase the inter
est and excitement wbich it did most
effectually. The stakes were very
small indeed, but the changing fortune
in winning and losing stimulated the
gambling passion until finally a ca
tastrophe occurred. One particular
afternoon I happened to have the
money in my pocket with which to
rest in Lott cemetery.

Iso carried away that at last I took
J out of my pocket tho money intrusted
I to me by my parents. Of course, with
| it I expected to win back all I had lost.
J We played on feverishly, but luck
would not turn till at last the entire
sum of the tuition fee was swept
away. It amounted only to a very
few thalers, and my cousins helped mo
out of my immediate embarrassment;
but my horror of what had happened
was so great, my consciousness of
guilt so painful, and the sense of my
mortification so acute—for I consid
ered myself, and with reason, to be
a criminal—that the inward suffering
of those days, especially when I made
a confession to my parents, has ever
remained in my memory bb a terriblo
lesson. I had gone through a very
serious experience with myself. In
playing for stakes the desire to win
money had really not been my impel
ling motive, but tho evil fascination
which the demon of fortune alwnys
possesses had led me to commit an
act which, committed under less fa
vorable circumstances, and upon n
larger scale, might have ruined my
character Irretrievably. Card-playing
for money is frequently classed among
the so called "noble passions;” but I
believe there Is no form of amusement
which, when it becomes a real pas
sion, is so dangerous even to nobly-
cast natures. It was, perhaps, very
fortunate In my own case that this les
son came so early In life and appeared
in so drastic a shape.—Exchange.

Cleveland Talks
On The Jews
The address of Grover Cleveland at
the Jewish anniversary celebration in
New York on Thanksgiving Day was
a clear and moderate exposition and
review of tho life and work of a
race th?.t has been and is becoming
more and more an Important factor
In the life of the nation. "If wo
ever have fnvors to ask of them,"
he said, "we can do it without tho
■hame-faced rememberanco of humlll-
gtlons and persecutions." Ho called
attention to the Impress that tho
Jew has made upon the life of the
nation, his Industry, obedience to
the laws and easy assimilation of the
spirit of freedom. Nor Is thero a lag
ging in any of thoso virtues of cit
izenship. Tho immigrant population
Impresses more powerfully upon their
children tho forco of tho arguments
of knowledge, civic pride and blame
less lives, while taking utmost advan
tage of tho peculiar opportunities of
fered under this government for edu
cation, advancement nnd the uplifting
of tho cltizon and the race. The
former president has made a study
of tho Jew, and ho marked his good
points not too strongly nor drew In
to the cnlcfum his frailties not too
critically.

Modest Uncle Remus.
