Very respectfully, ' GEORGE LoCKWOOD. ‘- What a Creolé'ls. A creole, strictly speaking, is any person born in this country or the West Indies of European ancestors; also any person born in or near the tropics, and this is the sense in which the word is usually employed. The use of the word, however, has been by some restricted first to children of foreign parents born in Louisiana, and, second, to children of Spanish or French parents born in Louisiana, and then in the north the word has been perverted so that it is believed to imply some strain of negro blood in a. person to whom it is applied. It does not imply anything of the sort. Electricity in Spain. Spaniards, although slow in the adoption of many improvements, are decidedly not so in regard to electric lighting. ' A large number of the prin- cipal towns, as well as'many very small ones, have insulations of their own. The latest venture is on the part of the owner of some water power near the two very limited towns Elgalbar and Eibar, in the Spanish province of Viscaya. These towns will shortly be supplied with electric current for both lighting and power purposes. The nec- essary working power will be furnished by the water of the River Dova. - NOTICE. HERE will be an inspection and muster of Buckingham Post, Q. A. R., at Head nar- ters, on Wednesday evening. Nov. 22d. ere Will be camp fire also. All members are re- quested to be on hand for duty.

Englishmen Set” Elie Patterni- 5‘ '“fPipe'7-Sni6king -is annual-1y becoming ,. , more'pOpular in'thé‘United'States. *‘ In past times pipes were relegated to the alleged lower classes. Of late years, however, and particularly since the craze for everything “English, you know,” came in, pipe smoking has in- creased. It is now considered quite too awfully swell, "says the Cincinnati Times-Star, to drop from a tandem dog cart with the stem of a short briar r‘oot pipe tightly clinched between your teeth. It is a sort of finishing touch to your rough-andTready fishing cos- tume to have a. stubby pipe in your mouth and gives onea delightful sense of easy, graceful, negligent swellness. Just as soon as the approval of society alighted upon the custom of pipe smoking, pipes became much in de- mand and the cost of the same in- creased proportionately, especially for the strictly English shapes. It is amusing. to see a fellow pretending to be a judge of a pipe. . The fact is, that nearly all pipes smoke pretty much the same. The cheaper pipes smoke bet- ter than the more expensive ones as a general thing. For instance, a corn- cob pipe is one of the coolest, sweetest smokes you can get. Next comes the penny clay pipe. If ini will smoke a clay pipe a .few times and throw it away you will always be sure that you are enjoying pipe smoking of the most delightful character: » The tendency of the average human is to buy an. expen- sive pipe and then color it by blowing smoke against the bowl. This practice renders the pipe ornamental, but as a general thing these highly colored pipes are very strong and it is anything but pleasant for persons averse to to- bacco to be in the same room with them. The English, smoke pipes be- cause pipe smoking is cheaper than cigar smoking. Americans smoke pipes because the English smoke pipes. The only man who can properly under- stand a pipe is the plantation darky who puts a live coal on top of a pipe filled with plug tobacco and puffs gen- tly at “turrer end” of a. reed stem while the purple night shadows gather around the cabin and the screech owl scares itself and tlie'neighborliood with its weird laughter. ' A TRUE POKER STORY. An Ex-Senator was Made a. High Bluff ~ on a Bobtail Flush. This is a true poker story from the Albany Express. The incident hap- pened not long ago on an Albany boat bound down from the zapital to New York. The game was that in which the man with the most money had the- best of it. That is,‘there was no limit and the players coming in were forced to lose unless they “called” a bet. In the party playing were an ex-senator, three assemblymen, and a physician. The hand with which this story has to do saw all the players in. All drew cards, the ex—senator drawing one, and a. certain assemblyman next to him taking three. The' others drew also and the .betting commenced. .It pro- gressed steadily until semething like one hundred dollars was in the pot. Suddenly the ex-senator planked two hundred dollars down on a raise. The big bet scared out all but the certain assemblyman. He looked at his cards for a long time, studied the ex-senator’s face, and nervouslysaw the two hun- ‘ dred dollars and raised it One hundred dollars. There was a forced smile on the face of the err-senator. He quickly saw the one hundred dollars and raised it one hundred dollars. The assembly- man looked sick, but he put down one hundred dollars and feebly said: “I call.” The show down revealed the fact that the ex~senator had a king high bob-tail flush,,wliile the assem~ blyman held a pair of deuces. The (ax-senator said something to , himself and went to his stateroom. The rest of the party remained 'up all night and a. goodly part of the nine hundred dol- lars and over in the. pot was spent in quart bottles. It is said the ex-senator has never bluifed in a game since. HIGH PRICES. Times ‘Vhen Living Was Expensive in Montana. A reporter for the Salt Lake Tribune reports a conversation with a man who kept a fruit stand in Helena in 1868. It was only a. small stand in front of a store, but the rent of it was thirty dol- lars a. month, and he was obliged to pay in advance. Much of his stock in trade was brought sixteen hundred miles by stage. It is not surprising, therefore, that fruit was dear in Helena. Twenty-five cents would not go far in those days at a fruit stall. One man who was courting a. young lady used to come to my place and buy four. apples for five dollars and carry them to his sweetheart. I always picked out four of the best ones, wrapped them in tis- sue paper, and put them into a. neat candy box. After awhile he got mar- ried and I sold him no more apples. The first year‘s pineapples sold for seven dollars apiece. Oranges were two dollars and a half or three dollars each, and the men who are rich in Montana to-day did nOt buy them. The first sweet potatoes ever in Mon- tana were sent to me, and cost me one dollar and thirty-five cents a pound. My first customer for them was a 011i- nese, who bought two pounds at One dollar and a half a pound. Bookkeepers were then paid twelve dollars a day. A very ordinary wooden building rented for four hundred dol- lars a month. Newspapers sold for fifty cents each, and magazines for a. dollar and a. quarter.
