At the present moment, the best bridge player in Londen is uardsman. | the wife of a well-known G This lady is generally supposed to make $6500 a year at bridge, and this result is due entirely to skill, A curious feature of the gambling spirit in society is the way idge tournaments have taken the place of bazaars. At these tournaments the entrance money and a percentage of the stakes is devoted to some charit- able object.

There is a cer fain countess, wellknown in the bridge world, who has a method of her own for testing her luck before- hand. Every morning, after break- fast, she plays a couple of games of patience. If the cards come out well she regards it as a good omen, and gues to the bridge club early. If the cards are perverse, she accepts the warning, and abstaine from bridge that day. Patience, by the way, is often made a medium for big gambling, especial ly that form of it known as "mon- tsua." In a certain ladies' club it is no uncommon sight to see two mem- bers gambling heavily at "montana." Oae plays the cards, and the other bets her a certain sum against the cards coming out. In this way $50 or $75 often changes hands in a sin- gle afternoon. As long as they are in England, society women do their gambling in private. But all this secrecy is thrown off as soon as the Channel is cross. ed. At Monte Carlo in the winter, and at Dieppe and Dinard in the sum- mer, any casual visitor to the Casi- nos at these places can watch some of the most exclusive of society dames playing baccarat or chemin de fer with Ram, Dick, and Harry. They are there for the purpose of gambling, and, so long as y win, it is no concern of theirs from whom their winnings come, 'or to whom their losses go, for the matter of that Many of them gamble in the most reckless fashion; but, with hardly an exception, they are most unemotional ; players. i There is no greater offence than to grumble when one loses or te chortle when one wins, Fitzwilliam Meir. With the and ceremony of feudal days, Viscount Milton, the in. fant heir of Earl and Countesy Fits. william, was, on Saturday, Feb. 11, christened at Wentworth Woodhouse, Yorkshire, perhaps the most nifi- cent mansion in the whole of Eng- land, and the ceremony acquired sn added interest from the fact that it was the first time for nearly threes Suaniony, of a century that a direct heir been born to the reigning head of the family. Outside in the great park hospital- ity was dispe on 'a lavish scale to the seven thousand guests who had been pidden to the christening. re Were fireworks, football matches, and enterfainments galore for the multitude of guests, includ- ing all the old English sports.

According to tradi. tion, this seral was presented by William the Conquerer to Sir William Fitzwilliam for valor at the battle of 3 CHOLERA 'N INDIA. How Mahomedans Seek to Avert the Dread Plague. During ihe past century cholera has made frequent ravages in India, which "this year dlso bas crept inte the wallev silently along with Hindu pilgrims, ssh-besmeared fa girs, little children, men and women from every part of India on their way up to the sacred caves of Amamath ~which are situated in the snow- covered mountains at the top of the valley--either by the pass over the Pir Panjal range or a the IS miles of road which leads here from the nearest railroad station, Rawal Pindi, in the Punjab. Despatches describe the methods to avert the cholera adopted by these semi-developed Mahomedans, who have many superstitions more of a Hindu character than in accerdanece' with the faith they profess to follow. A small party of men and women parade up and down following some leaders with a long pole from the top of which flutiers a small triangular flag. the very shape of which is Hin. du, and a couple of tom-toms; this is to invoke the aid of some of the many saints these people worship. The fact*that the pilgrims carry "chatis" is due to a brilliant notion arrived at by the chief "mullah," or priest, of » mosque situated on the hill crowned by the fort of Akbar, whieh is seen in the distance. He had a vision this year, and in consequence it was noised abroad that the tank df the holy "edifice, which had lain parched and dry for some time, must be filled if the cholera were to be subdued. So inhabitants from vil lages far and near flocked to the capital carrying "gurrahs" of water, which were emptied into the holy tank whether they had been brought from some badly-infected district or not. Each villager, feeling that he had done all in his power to avert the calamity, returned happily enough, little realizing that ppuy he wag destined to die on his several days' march back or was carrying in- fection to his hitherto unaffected home from this city of mud-roofed } houses, in which dwell huddled to- gether some 120,000 exceedingly dirty inhabitants. What can a civilized nation do (writes our correspondent) to help such ignorant wretches, who will go down to the river, wash themselves and their clothes, throw all refuse into it, and then drink of its water in preference to that brought hivugh pipes clean and pure, direct from the snows, fo their very doors? The Fatteh Kadl is very typical of those in Kashmir.

His brie! martyrdom seems to have taken place on his return journey from Kashmir; it is said that after his death his coffin miraculous. ly completed the journey to Kuttan in Persia by itself. He was poisoned, one may surmise, by who resented his having converted the Hindu priest of the ancient temple on the site of which the mosque stands. How to Grow Rich.
