New. York Sun. One of the internal revenue taxes provided Ly congress to' meet the éx pense of the Spanish war was a tax of two cents on each pack of cards manufactired in the United States. The usual pack contains fifty-two cards or with a joker, fifty-three, but for the sake of uniformity the number was fixed by congress at fifty-four. The government revenues from the war tax on playing cards amounted 10 sabout $1,000 for each working day and assuming that all the packs were full decks; "the average nu..ber manu: factured in each year was 15,000,000 packs or 750,000,000 cards. The po: pulation of the United States is ap- | proximately 76,000,000, and there wert Yencards manufactured each yeaf for each man, woman and child in the United States. To the total revenue - of $300,000 from playing cards, Ohio contributed $140 000, New York following with $90,000, and Michigan and Illinois with $40,000 each. These four states have a practical monopoly of playing card making in the United States. A Canon's Chase. OF Canon - Spooner, the new warden of New College, Oxford, innumerable stories: are told. He is constantly twisting up his words, as for example, when he said at a dinner that he never bought goods from Oxford tradesmen, as oi preferred to "steal at the doors." One story, at least ben trova- to, tells how once a gust of wind car- ried away his hat. As he was chas- ing' it down the street a black hen ran out -in front of him. Becoming confused he. chased the hen, thinking it was his hat, cornered it in a doorway and then tucked it under his arm for greater safety. and carried 'it back to the college, where the porter was the first to ask him what he was doing with the fowl. -- -- A Gentleman Defined.
