MORITURNS. I feel the slow, soft shadows in the room And through the curtains I can faintly see The patient face that was so much to me When life and love and hope were in their bloom; Through all the mist, through all the deepening gloom, It gazes down in mild serenity, As if to make as gentle as may be The echoing pathway leading to the tomb. Oh, Mother, let me grasp thy hand while yet. My eyes can see thee; let thy lips touch mine, Thy cool hand trembles, and thine eyes or wet. The tears I weep are tears of joy divine. I have no pain, I have no grief or fear, And death seems sweet to me while thou art near. —Burton Egbert Stevenson in New York Suz. THE FATAL CARD. Years ago the Mississippi river was famous for its "floating palaces," as the large steamers plying between New Orleans and the ports above were called. Now the railroads have driven all the boats off the river. The former class of steamers were, in many respects, delightful, but they never ceased to be objects of dread to timid people, for if the racing, which was on that river reduced to a system, did not result in the loss of the boat, there was sure to be one or more encounters between the more lawless portion of the travelers, in which pistol bullets would fly rather too thick for the comfort of the steady going people. The cause of such disturbance was generally a quarrel over the gaming table. The regulations of the boats usually required that all such amusements should be conducted in a saloon provided for that purpose in the "Texas" (officer's cabin), situated on the hurricane deck, but the sporting gentlemen were by no means careful to observe this rule, and the gaming was most commonly carried on at the dining table in the main saloon of the steamer, to the great annoyance of two-thirds of those on board. Many professional gamblers used to make these boats their homes, traveling back and forth with them, fleecing all who were foolish and verdant enough to fall in their clutches. One of the most remarkable men of this class was named Daniel Sturdivant, a Frenchman, the son of a broken down scion of nobility who had settled in New render the gallibber powerless. He insisted a moment and then said bullyingly: "I never play with a man whose face I cannot see." "Never mind my face; if you are not afraid of losing you shall see it when I am done with you." "But how do I know that you have money for such sport?" persisted Sturdivant. "You look seedy enough, my fine fellow." "There," said the stranger; "I have $10,000 there. If you can win it you shall do so." With an oath Sturdivant placed himself at the table and bade his challenger do likewise. Those of us who had listened to this singular dialogue now gathered around the table, expecting to see a scene of more than usual interest. The stranger had not raised his hat brim and none of us had seen his face, but we all felt from his general air and manner that Daniel Sturdivant had at last met his match. It did not take long to show us that the stranger was an unusually good player. For an hour or more the playing went on in silence. The stakes were high and the contest marked with rare skill. Sturdivant exerted himself as he had never done before, but in spite of all his efforts he lost steadily. By the expiration of the time indicated above he had lost over $2,000. I noticed the flush upon his face deepen and a strange light come into his eyes. At last, with an exclamation of triumph, he drew toward him the heap of notes. "That was well done," said the stranger. "You are an expert at cheating. But go on; I can best you whether you play openly or dishonestly." Sturdivant said nothing, but dealt the cards again. The hand was played and Sturdivant was about to seize the stakes again when the stranger laid down a card and checked him. The gambler uttered a sharp cry and sat motionless, with his eye fixed on the card, a worn and faded ace of hearts, with a dark stain across the face. Sturdivant's face worked convulsively as he gazed at it, and the spectators gathered more closely around the two wondering at the strange scene. "In God's name, who are you?" asked Sturdivant, with his eyes still fixed on the card. "Look at me," said the stranger. but the sporting gentlemen were by no means careful to observe this rule, and the gaming was most commonly carried on at the dining table in the main saloon of the steamer, to the great annoyance of two-thirds of those on board. Many professional gamblers used to make these boats their homes, traveling back and forth with them, fleecing all who were foolish and verdant enough to fall in their clutches. One of the most remarkable men of this class was named Daniel Sturdivant, a Frenchman, the son of a broken down seion of nobility who had settled in New Orleans before the transfer of Louisiana to the United States. Sturdivant had been raised a "gentleman" by his aristocratic father, but on coming of age and finding his fortunes very bad, had taken to cards as a means to better them. His success in this field was so great that he was induced to continue it, until at the time of which I write he was one of the most notorious gamblers between St. Louis and New Orleans. He was a man of fine personal appearance and of great physical strength. He was also noted for his personal courage. As a gambler he was most expert and successful. There were dark stories of deeds which he had committed while under the influence of play and liquor, and it was said by some that he had killed half a dozen men in his lifetime. Yet no one dared to speak these stories openly, for no one dared to bring upon himself the anger of such a man. He had attached himself to one of the magnificent steamers plying between New Orleans and Vicksburg, being heavily engaged in cotton speculations. I preferred the steamer of which Sturdivant had taken possession, inasmuch as it was not only the most comfortable, but also the swiftest, and time was of the utmost importance to me. It was known that I carried large sums of money, and I was also aprehensive lest Sturdivant should ask me to play. I had fully made up my mind to refuse him, and if he attempted to draw me into a quarrel to shoot him without mercy, as I knew that the only chance for my life lay in getting the advantage of him. Strange to say, he did not make any such proposition to me, and I gave him no chance to do so. One night we had started out from Vicksburg, and were heading merrily down the river, when Sturdivant came up to the group which had gathered around the stove. He had been drinking. All made way for him. "Well, gentleman," he said in an unsteady tone, "you seem to be terribly dull. Who wants to play for twenty dollars ante?" There was no reply.

One night we had started out from Vicksburg, and were heading merrily down the river, when Sturdivant came up to the group which had gathered around the stove. He had been drinking. All made way for him. "Well, gentleman," he said in an unsteady tone, "you seem to be terribly dull. Who wants to play for twenty dollars ante?" There was no reply. All present seemed to know the man, and no one cared to volunteer to place himself in his clutches. "Umph!" he exclaimed, with an expression of contempt, "afraid to try your luck with Dan Sturdivant, eh? Or maybe you want a little coaxing. Some of you must play with me. I can't stand such treatment. Come, let's see who it shall be." He glanced around the crowd as if to secure his victim. For the first time I noticed the gaze of one of the group fixed steadily upon him. He was a stranger to me and was dressed in a plain suit of homespun, and his face was partially concealed by a broad brimmed sombrero, which was drawn down over it. "Are you Daniel Sturdivant, the gambler?" he asked in a calm tone without rising. Sturdivant flushed darkly and gave the stranger a keen glance. "Some persons call me so behind my back," he said insolently, "but no one would care to apply that term to me before my face." "Nevertheless," said the stranger quietly, "I want an answer—yes or no." "Well, then, I am," said the gainbler. "What of it?" "Simply this," replied the stranger, "I have heard it said that you claim to be the best card player in the southwest. I have come 200 miles to prove you a liar." Sturdivant strode forward a step or two, and thrust his hand into his breast, as if to grasp a weapon. "Stop," said the stranger. "If you shoot me you will simply prove yourself afraid of me. Take your seat at the table, and I will make my words good." There was something in the calm, stern manner of the stranger that seemed to AYER'S Sarsaparilla Is superior to all other preparations claiming to be blood-purifiers. First of all, because the principal ingredient used in it is the extract of genuine Honduras sarsaparilla root, the variety richest in medicinal properties. Also, because the yellow dock, being raised expressly for the Company, is always fresh and of the very best kind. With equal discrimination and care, each of the other ingredients are selected and compounded. It is THE Superior Medicine because it is always the same in appearance, flavor, and effect, and being highly concentrated, only small doses are needed. It is, therefore, the most economical blood-purifier in existence. It makes food nourishing, work pleasant, sleep refreshing, and life enjoyable. It searches out all impurities in the system and expels them harmlessly by the natural channels. AYER'S Sarsaparilla gives elasticity to the step, and imparts to the aged and infirm, renewed health, strength, and vitality. AYER'S Sarsaparilla Prepared by Dr. J.C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass.
