It was in the year 1300, while I was staying a few days in a Missouri village, that I first saw Giant Jack. I was seated on the piazza of the only hotel that the place could boast of, when I saw a large, handsome man, accompanied by a very pretty woman, passing down the street He was over six feet in height, with broad shoulders, a deep, full chest, muscular and well formed limbs, glossy, chestnut hair, and a huge beard of the same color, which hung nearly to his waist. He was about 85 years of age, and his companion appeared to be about twelve years his junior. They were seated in a handsome carriage, drawn by a pair of beautiful, blooded horses; and it was evident that they belonged to a wealthy class of people. "That 'ere big feller?" said mine host in reply to my inquiry. "W'y, that's John Norval. Me 'n' him has alius be'n chums ever sence we wuz boys, When ther gold fever broke out in '49, we went ter Californy tergether. It wuz while he wuz thar that he got ther nickname nv Giant Jack an' ther name jest fits him; John is er giant in size, and his heart is big in proportion ter his body. Er better feller than John never stood in two shoes; an' I, who've known him ever senca he wuz knee high ter er grass- hopper, (keri'8war ter it. ' He owns ther an' ther dry goods store jest beyond this hotel; and ther JJig huse yer passed jest before ver entered this village, is lus'n. "Me'n' John didn't make our fortin' diggin' Californy gold, ez some did," continued the landlord. "Arter wed be'n thar erliout five years, we got kinder homesick; anr, ez we'd made er big ernough pile ter start us in business here in our native village, wo concluded ter pull out fur home. "But Jest before we got ready ter start, thar wuz a new arrival at the camp er man named Horton, an his daughter. When Giant Jack see ther gal he decided ter stay erwhile longer, an , uv course, ez I didnt want ter start fur home with out him, I stayed, too. Giant Jack had fell in love with Clara Horton, almost at fust sight, an' I couldn't blame him fur it; fur she wuz purtier n any picter I ever see. 'Horton pretended that he had coma ter dig gold, but we found out after wards that that wuz only er blind. He wua a professional gambler; an before he had be'n at ther camp ten days, he bad fleeced no lees n half er dozen miners. Such scoundrels wus very common in ther California gold regions in them days. ; ' s '' ; 1 "Giant Jack disliked Horton from the fust, but he made friends with him so he could git 'quainted with his daughter; an' before Clara Horton had be'n er week at the camp, she an' Giant Jack wua ther best nv friends. ' "Giant Jack had pitied ther girl on ther day when . he bad fust seen her when ther stage had brought iier an' bee father top from ther city; for she earned er lady, With her quiet ways an her wistful eyes, an' not a tall fitted fur ther wild, rovin' life, which it wus plain her father wuz leadln' her. "Pity is akin ter love, they say; an' mebhe it wua ther cause uv Giant Jack's fallin' in love with Clara Horton so sud den j fer ten days from ther time he had fust seen her, he axed her ter be his wife. ; " 'I like yer better n any other man I ever see,' she told him, 'an' I would be glad ter leave my father, whom I can neither love nor respect; but, on her dyin' bed, my mother made me promise never ter leave my father, without his consent. Ef he dont object, an' you arent ashamad ter marry er gambler's daughter, I will be your wife; but I can't break the promise I made ter my dyin' mother.' , "Horton not only objected, but told Giant Jack he'd put er bullet through him ef he caught him hangin 'round arter Clara any more. ' No one short uv er milHoner, he said, oould have his daughter. ' . . f'rS,y'c'" 'W "Giant Jack drew his pistol from bis belt, thought erwhile, an', then put it back erg'ln. i i- ? ; : -i. v'V- - ; v. ';! 'If yer wa'n't Clara's father,' said he, Td let daylight through yer.' "Then he went back ter Clara, an' tried ter coax her ter marry him without bar father's consent He told bar that her mother wouldn't blame her, ef she knew what er blackleg her father wua, an' that it wua fouliuh fer her ter make her own life mWrable, an' hia'n, too, ! est fur ther tak n keepta' er promise, lut all his argyin didn't do no good. Clara, though aha cried when he wua I leadln' with her, refused ter break hoc I 'Oinlfle, , , , 'Fur three or four days arterwards Giant Jack went 'round looking suller'n er mad bull; then one evenln' he got me an' three other fellers to go up to Hor ton s cabin. j,1 " 'Let's shake,' he said ter Horton when we got thar; 'and ter show I've got nothin' erg'in yer I'll play er game iiv keerds with yer. "Horton shook hands with him heart ily, but he looked er little s'prised, fur Giant Jack had alius refused ter play with him before. " 'Uv course FI1 have er game with yer,' said he, awful chipper; fur he thought he'd got er new victim. 'Set right down thar.' "Giant Jack sot down ter ther table, an' Horton Beated himself opposite ter him. "They cut fur deal, an' Giant Jack drew ther highest keerd. " 'What's yer game? he axed, shufflin ther pasteboards. ' " 'Seven up, said Horton. 'That's ther most pop'lar game jest now.' "Ther game wuz small at fust, an' Hor ton won six out ov ther fust seven. Then bigger stakes wuz made, an' Giant Jack won erbout four out ov every five games. "When ther young folks, back here in ole Missoury, useter play keerds fur fun, John Norval useter be ther stuartes' an' luckiest one ermongst 'em; an', fur ther fust time since he'd be'n at ther camp, Horton had found his match. "It wuz er purely scientific game, each man bein' too clover fur ther other ter attempt any cheatin'. Horton wuz stead ily Iosin', but he didn't offer ter give up playin'. I've noticed, az er gineral thing, that ther more er man loses when he's gamblin', ther more anxious he is ter play. "At last Horton rose ter his feet, look in' pale an' haggard. " 'Ye have cleaned me out,' he said. Tve nothin' more ter stake.' " 'Thar's yer daughter,' said Giant Jack coolly. 'I'll lay half uv ther pile that I've won ter night ag'inst her.' "Horton glared at him er minute, an' then sot down ter ther table erg'ln. "Giant Jack dealt ther keerds, an' ther game commenced. Horton made ther Jack, an Giant Jack wuz high, low, game. "Ther second heat. Giant Jack went high, low, jack an' ther game. " 'I've won,' ha said, quietly. "Horton jumped ter his feet an' drew his pistol; but quick ez er flash Giant Jack covered him with hisjwn barkin' iron. " 'Drap that,' said he, sternly, 'ur ye'U find I ken play at pistols ez well ez at keerds.' "Ther pistol drapped from Horton's tremblin hand ter ther floor. He knew that Giant Jack wuz ther best shot in the camp. "Horton glared at Giant Jack fur bout half er minute, an' then he called Clara from her little, room at ther end uv her cabin;' ; V y.'i;- L, , ,-''.,'.;;Vf' " Tak"her erway from here' at once,' he said ter Giant Jack. 'She can't stay here ter-night; an' I hope I'll never set eyes on her erg in. "In er few words, Giant Jack told her what had happened; an' ther look uf joy that shone in her eyes told plainer than words could have done how pleased she wuz at ther turn erfairs had taken. Without er word uv farewell ter her father, ur even er backward glance, she tuk Giant Jack s arm an he led her from ther cabin, leavin' behind him every thing else that he had won from Horton. "We gave up our cabin tor Clara that night, an' slept in ther cabin that be longed ter ther fellers that went with us ter Horton a, which wuz close to our'n. "The next day we Clara, Giant Jack and myself took ther stage fur Frisco; an' ez soon ez we got thar Giant Jack and Clara wua married." "And what became of her father?" I asked. "I don't know whatever become uv Horton. We never heard from him since that night we left him erlone in his cabin at ther Californy minin' camp, Yes, that woman yer see jest now with Giant Jack ur John Norval, ea be is known erbout hero is his wife; an' he won her, not with er sword, nor exactly by courtship. In plain English, he won her at the old fashioned game uf 'high, low,. Jack."' J. H. Spencer in Chicago Uedger. " A Disgusted Cat. x In some manner a cat .found its way into a oyolorama building several days ago. The man in charge attempted to chase the trespassing feline through the door, but the cat evidently thought there was a better way of escaping the rising temper of the irate man. It looked cautiously about, as if to avoid stepping On the prostrate forma of heroes slain in the battle. Finally its eyes caught sight Of a tree. A projecting limb hung very low, and hero the cat thought to find a place of safety. It gave one leap, and, no doubt, was the most disgusted cat in Portland when it learned by sad experi ence that the tree was on the canvas. It picked itself up and slowly slunk through the door, down the stairs and out of the building, Portland Oregonian. The First Lamp Chimney.

The Star Spangled Banner Much More Coiitfplcuoas Than the Country Bas Been Lel to Suppose Of Course the Confederate Flag Was There, But Mot as an Emblem of Disloyalty, Washington, June 4. Among the correspondents and Republican visitors who have returned from Richmond, the evidence is concurrent and conclusive that the Union flag was much more generally displayed than the country has been led to suppose. The Confeder ate display waa conspicuous enough, though much of it was natural, and much of it doubtless free from disloy alty. But it was not as bad as has been widely represented, as now appears from the oral testimony of many radical Republican witnesses who visited Rich mond. A Radical Man's Views. One of the most radical correspond ents in Washington, who went as strongly prejudiced against the contem plated "demonstration as one could well be, says this upon his return: "There has been much exaggeration concerning the display of Confederate flags at Richmond. It is true the Con federate battle-flag was conspicuous throughout the city, but the American flag the flag of the Union was like wise everywhere. The stars and bars, the official flag of the Cor.Iederacy, was seldom seen. I saw hundreds of houses decorated solely with the Union flag, but a majority of the decorations ail over the city included both the Union flag and the Confederate battle-flag. The Mississippi veterans in the parade carried the stars and stripes at the head of their column, and they were cheered as heai uly and as often as any others. The Texans also carried it in their line. "It was most natural that the old vet erans who followed the misfortunes of the Confederacy for four years should hold dear ihe memories of the banner under which they fought, and they may be pardoned for the display of their old battle-flag upon such an occasion. Bat they did not flaunt it in any spirit of dis loyalty, but rather with reverence for the cad momories associated with it. Those who fought for the Confederacy are now enthusiastic Unionists, with the exception of an occasional crazy old fanatic like Rosser or Jnbal Early, who will never be reconstructed in this world. The old soldiers are less enthu siastic over the Confederate flag than some of the . young men and women born since the war. The young people were occasionally demonstrative con cerning the.flag, and it was a young man who nlaced the Confederate colors in theliand of the Washington statue, v;, "Having putting , aside all jirofesBiomV or consiaerauon ior me uouieuerate flaer. the old soldiers of the Confederacy need yet tb teach some of the youngei generation inac one nag tne union stars and stripes is enough for all, both north and south. The gathering at Richmond was probably the last great reunion of the eK-Confederacy, and the old soldiers themselves concede that the Confederate flag has been displayed upon a public occasion lor tne last time. If the Itichinond demonstration may be accepted as significant, there is no cause for alarm, for disloyalty in the south, with exceptions that maybe termed soli tary, has disappeared forever." Colonel Dan. Grosvenor Talks. Col. Dan. Grosvenor, whose unadul terated Radicalism, both in a military and a political sense, is well known, and who made a- close observation of the whole demonstration in Richmond, rid ing over the whole city on the day of the unveiling, replied as follows to an inquiry as to the flags and the situation in general: "in compliance with your personal in quiry aa to the situation of affairs at Richmond and the incidents of the occa sion of the unveiling of the Lee statue, I have to say that I was in the south from Wednesday evening to Saturday evening, except during the day, Friday, Memorial Day, I was absent at Peters burg. "I saw; heard and conversed. I saw the defunct Confederacy in the saddle ahd on foot. I saw all that one could see, and I took careful note of all I saw. The decorations throughout the city were elaborate and beautiful. Thou sands of private residences were hand so.nely decorated. Many houses, noted- Sr the former residences of Gen. Lee and eft. Davis, while they ware handsome ly decorated with bright colored bunt ing, showed no signs of a United States flag. In fact a Tory large proportion of the decorations consisted of red, white, blue, yellbw and black bunting, with tri-colored shields and devices of various kinds. As to the question of the differ ent descriptions of flags displayed, I should say that, taken together, the state emblems and Confederate flags of various kinds largely predominated. As to the number of United States flags displayed, I should say that the United States flag largely predominated in num bers. . There were trat few of the battle flags' of the Confederacy displayed among the decorations, and they were very hard to get hold of, as I tried for two days to capture one, and oome away without one. "There, were but few United States flags in the procession. I do not think there were to exceed five or six in the whole procession, and they were all car ried bv the state troorjs. one bv the Mississippi Rifles, one by a South Caro lina regiment and one by a Maryland regiment. All the old veterans carried tneir old nags of tne days or oi to 00. It happened that Gen. Longstreet's car riage stopped immediately in front of the stand where I was about 'an hour while the veterans were passing. I crossed the street with one or two other Union soldiers and shook hands with him. and was pleased to see that the old general had a small United States flag pinned on his coat breast. The scene was very affecting. Many of the old veterans broke ranks and shook hands with Longstreet, and not infrequently tney wouia actually emoraoe nun, ana ren wept on his neck. A , tvDical Confederate cavalrvman passed with a small Confederate battle nag, and. waving it in his hand ha shouted . enthusiastically 'Farewell for ever to the star spangled banner' ' "An ex-voxixouexate one-legged soicuer from South Carolina asked me how I liked : their demonstration. I replied very much except the displaying of the Confederate flag; that I thought there ought to be but one flag shown on any occasion in this country, and that the United States flag. He answered that he thought so too, and further expressed, the opinion that the occasion then in nuestion .wopid probably be the last time that the Confederate flag would be displayed in public Tn this country. Just at that time a young man less than 80 years of age stepped up and said: 'No, it is not. It will be kept up and unfurled as. long as the country stands.' "There were two old ex-Confederates present, who heard the conversation, and both rebuked the young man and told him it was snch yonng upstarts as he, who were not born when the war broke out, that kept up tbe strife be tween the sections. A small boy 8 or 6 years old stood near me at the stand waving the United States flag and join ing lustily in the 'rebel yell,' while on the door step near by was a little girl about the same age, clad in a complete suit of flags, waving a flag and joining in the enthusiasm." These specimens of testimony are fair illustrations f the conversation of the more radical Republicans who have re turned from the Lee unveiling. They show that in the one point of ignoring the stars and stripes thf early dispatches from Richmond made the . situation worse than it really was. DUEL IN A CEMETERY. Rival Lovers Fight Over an Evansvllle Belle One Wounded. Louisville, June 4. The Courier Journal says: At 10:4(- o'clock Sunday night St. Louis cemetery, dark and gloomy, was the scene of the first duel fought in Ken tucky for a long time. The participants were Thomas Overby, an advertising igent, who has been here only a few months, and Charles Sanders, a travel ing man for an Evansville, Ind., cloth ing house. Sanders was engaged to be married to Mise Emma Zener, a handsome young lady of Evansville, who is now visiting in this city. Upon coming here to see the yonng lady Sanders discovered th:.t Overby had supplanted him in her affections. A quarrel was followed by a fight in which Sanders was worsted. The men afterwards met at the Alex ander hotel and resumed their difficulty and finally decided to settle the atfair ac cording to the code. Overby was repre sented by Frank Lattrall, a young man who lives in Indianapolis, while a trav eling man from Cincinnati named Harry Thomas nctei for Sanders. Accompanied by a medicnl student named James White, who acted as sur geon, and a reporter of The Courier Journal, the party secured carriages and drove to the suburbs. The principals took their positions, armed with 82-cali-bre Smith & Wesson revolvers, twenty paces apart. It was too dark to see the men plainly, except at a close distance, but they both displayed great coolness. The seconds took their respective positions, after ar ranging that the firing should begin Wara three had been counted. "One, two; three."- As the last nuinbtetf was' called T)t the physician who did the counting a blaze of fire flashed from the muzzles of both pistols. Before one could see whether .or not either man was woundedrfour more reports rang out, and Sanders staggered up to the tombotone near him and supported himself by its cold sides. Dr. White hastily examined him, and found that one bullet had penetrated his right breast near the top of the should ar, another had made a slight flesh wound in his left arm. He had fired two shots while Overby had fired three. The man's wounds were dressed as quickly as possible, and he was placed in his carnage and takea to New Albany, Ind.. where he took the first train for his home, in Evans ville. The other participants in the affair have all left the city. Sanders' wounus are not consiaerea ratal. REV. SAM SMALL Accepts the Presidency of a Methodist University In Utah. Atlanta, Ga., June 4. Sam Small is the central figure in another sensation which stirs up all Atlanta. This is his acceptance of the presidency of a Meth odist college at Ogden, Utah. The an nouncement of this new step oomes in a telegram from the Rev. Sam himself, so it is authentic Just before this, his latest sensation, waa the announcement of his candidacy for the legislature. Immediately after that was made he went to Ogden to conduct revival serv ices. Nothing was heard from him un til Sunday, when a telegram announc ing his presidency of the new Methodist university was received. This is coupled with the announcement that Small will stick to Methodism, and will affiliate with the Northern Methodist church. The most surprised people here are Bish op Beckwith, of the Episcopal church, and Rev. George M. Funsten, of St Philip's onurch. Several months ago Mr. - Small an nounced his intention of going into the Episcopal ministry. His wife is a mem ber of that church, but he went into the Methodist church at first because it gave him better opportunities for evangeBstio work. He had determined to, go into the Episcopal church, however, and all arrangements had been made for his or dination on June 10. He was expected back in Atlanta on the 10th of June. His telegram from Ogden was the first intimation they had of a change of pur pose. , More Telegraph In the South. Cincinnati. June 4.
