SENATOR JONESJIRES A HAND.
The Man Proves to Be Believer in Snort
Hours and Lives Up to His Belief.
I . Chicago Herald.
Senator Jones gives (considerable
money to the needy, but he can't be
- fboled. He had been talking poli
tics in the Richelieu for a couple of
hours yesterday "afternoon and
started out for a. walk. As he
reached the street a professional
beggar, approaching with bowed
head, said: t
"Please, sir, help .a deserving
cause. I don't care for money; work
is what I'm after.- I've eaten nothing
since yesterday, but would take
work now in pretence to money."
"You would never get so low as
to work, would you?" asked the
Senator.
' ! "A chance is all I ask, sir. I've
been to every store in Chicago and
; found nothing."
"What would you do ?" .
"Anything triafa honest, sir. '
"You may be a true bill after all,
and I'll give you a chance. . I'll give
you "30 cents an hour to work for
me." ' :
"Thank you, sir, fori saving my
lite. I'll work two days for that."
Senator Jones told the fellow to
walk along and he would find him
something to do. The rich politi
cian from Nevada does not give
.money to street-beggars, but makes
them work for whatever he chooses
to give them. ' He walked with his
tattered old tramp up Michigan ave
nue, and it was a funny sight. Pe-
. destrians turned around to see the
fine-looking companion. Near Har
rison street workmen were moving a
quantity of old timber. Senator Jones
asked the foreman if he wanted to
hire anew man. When he answered
no, the Senator said he would pay
the man. All he wanted was a chance
to have the man work and earn his
money.
. Under Jhese circumstnnces the
foreman was glad to get a new man
for nothing, and the fellow pitched
in to work like a hero, stopping only
now and then to thank his benefac
tor for saving his life. The man had
worked about five minutes when a
gaudy tally-ho came sailing down
the boulevard. The Senator stepped
aside to look at the gay ; coach, and
when his back was turned the tramp
! jumped the . fence and ran down
i Michigan avenue for dear life. No
i man ever escaped from work so
rapidly as he, and the Senator laugh-
i ed very heartily -as he realized that
he was yet to be fooled .by tramps
who are dying to go to work.
Telling the story afterward Sena
tor Jones remarked that 'the greatest
tramp in Nevada was Scotty. 1 "He
has never worked a day in his life,"
jaaid Mr. Jones, -'but he is so clever
that every one helps him.' When I
was out west last time he ran across
me and I asked about his brother."
" 'Don't mention his name to me,'
i implored Scotty, as th.e tears sneak,
i ed down his cheeks. j
1 t "Has he. turned . out ; badly?" I
asked.
j . I " 'Though the subject is painful
t to me I will conceal my emotions
and tell all.'
I. I " 'Is you brother alive."
! t " 'That's the worst. If he had
died his shame might have been bur
ied with him.'
" 'Did he disgrace himself?'
) " 'More than that. He's disgrac
ed the whole family!'
" 'What did he do?' I
. . ; " 'He's gone to work.'; "
I LUCKY BILL.
His Luck was at an End When He Held
I That Hand, j
Detroit Free Press.
l was watering a game ot poker
once at Helena, Mont. The play
ers were a gambler (whom I knew
slightly, who bore the soubriquet of
"Lucky Bill,") and two miners.
Suddenly, after the hands were
dealt and the players had "chipped
in" and drawn cards, Lucky Billr
with perfect calmness and not so
much as the shadow of a change in
; the expression of his face, laid his
cards on the table, took a note-book
! from his pocket and deliberately
wrote a few words. Then he tore
, out the leat and handed it to me.
i"Look at that when you get home
. to-night." j
fHls voice was steady, and did not
betray a jparticle of excitement. I
, thrust th paper aimlessly into my
pocket anki gave the matter hardly
a second of thought. i
The play progressed. Lucky Bill's
face was unyielding as a stone and
entirely unexpressive. He noticed
everything, however, and his vigil
ant eye did not miss the slightest
. move on the part of the ! other play
ers. He was a typical gambler aud
one of the most successful of his
guild. Hence his sobriquet.
At last there was an altercation
between the two miners, j Hot words
ensued and revolvers were drawn,
' - Some of the bystanders interfered at
this pbint and in the scuffle that fol
lowed I heard the sharp ' whistle and
. ping of a bullet. Lucky Bill, his
good star in the descendant, fell to
the floor and expired. He had been
killed by the accidental discharge of
-, a pistol in the hands of one of the
, miners. ' 1
i T 1 .
i x was norrinea at tne occurrence,
and that evening after I reached
home I thought of the line the gam
bier had written me. I took it from
my pocket and read as follows: "I
: nave arawn a pair oi sevens, l now
hold, jacks full on red sevens. It is
' a fatal hand. No one ever held it
and left the card table alive. I shall
die. "T have $6,000 in the First Na

COL. MORRISON'S OPINION.
!The Tariff Will be the Issue in 1892.
Chicago Evening Post,
On the subject of politics the
colonel is not what can properly be
called loquacious. He doesnt say
so, but his manner indicates that he
would rather talk about the weather,
He explains or, rather,1 seeks to
Dy stating that the business of the
commisssion occupies so much of his
time as to give him no opportunity to
keep pace with the affairs of the po
litical world. Nevertheless he scouts'
the idea advanced by certain Reoub
licans to the effect that the success
of reciprocity is certain to lessen the
importance of the tariff question in
the next national canvass.
"The tariff will be as paramount in
the discussion of 1892. as it has
ever been before. It is simply
this question: Who pays the freight,
or rather the taxes, and who re
ceives the benefits? For a thousand
years the question has been discuss
ed, and for a thousand years more
it will continue t&be. Occasionally,
as in the past, wars will come to
divert attention . and change condi
tions; but when a war is over the
question springs again to the front
and remain there till another war
displaces it. Whatever else may be
come an issue in '92 the tariff will be
thelmost conspicuous of all."
BACCARAT.
The
Game Which Sir Wm. Gordon Cum
mins Flayed Crooked.
Although the game of baccara, or
baccarat, has been introduced in tnis
couritry in a modified form, it is com
paratively unknown here. It is
placed with the ordinary playing
cards, and in very simple in its de
tails! and freer from complications
than most games at cards. Any
number of players may participate,
and as many packs of cards majr be
usedfas necessary, the number being
increased to correspond with the
numper of players. One member of
the party is selected to act as banker.
He deals out the cards from a box
similar to a cigar box, after they
have been shuffled. The face cards
each count ten, and the -others" ac
cording to the number of their spots.
After the bets have been made the
banker deals two cards to each of
the players, including himself, but
the other players must receive their
cards before the banker is served.
The aim of the players is to make
the numbers 9, 19, 29, or as nearly
those! as possible, as 8, 18 28. Any
player is at liberty either to "stand"
or to be "content" with the two
cards first dealt, or to call for more
at the risk of exceeding 29, when
higstjike is forfeited to the dealer.
Iffl er the first distribution of two
earas. to-each, any player has a "natural"-
that is, a sum making 9, or
iiext in value, 19 -he declares it wins
and the banker pays all who hold
supeuior hands to his own, and
claimi from those holding inferior
handsL The players stake their
money separately, there being, in
fact, as many separate games in
progress as there are players, and
the spectators may wager their
rhonet on any of them, all ofjwhich
must be accepted! by the banker in
charge.
The great difficulty to an ordinal-
uy prudent: baccarat player is to
now when to leave, off. .hven the
strongest-minded can. scarcely trust
their judgment in this respect, so it
may be readily imagined what sort
of chance any vacilating player has
of being successful at the game.
There are certain matters in con
nectioh with the Tranby Croft bacca
rat affair that are worth considering.
bir. William is allegea to have re
sorted to a form of cheating known
as "pbussette that is, adding to
the stake when the banker has lost
and decreasing it when he has won.
Now, had the table been better con-
ductedL it would have been impossi
ble for this to have occurred. Prior
to the banker making a start he
states the amount in the bank
fpr example, .50. Any one sit
ting down at the tabfe has the right.
to call the whole of the bank, select
ing the left or the right on which to
pick up the cards; If the bank is not
called, then the banker proceeds to
deal tq 25 aide, or as much of it
as may, be "marked jor called the
tormer meaning that the money is
placed on the table: the latter, that
the banker has accepted the bet
without the money being staked.
The latter course, however, is .quite
the exception, the ready coin being
invariably planked. Previous to the
banker dealing the cards it isHhe
duty of two croupiers, one on the
right and. the other on the left, to
count up the stakes deposited on
either side, and then make up the
bank. Thus the banker knows to the
smallest coin the exact amount of
his liabilities. Had the game been
properly played at Tranby Croft no
one attempting the "poussette
would have stood an earthly chance
of either increasing or decreasing
nis stake.
TAKE OUT A SILVER COIN.
Give it a
Squint or Two and Then Bead
This.
What
is the "milling" on a dollar
or other
comr rroDaDiy not one
person
in 500 would answer this
simple question correctly. There is
a popular belief that the corruga
tions on the rim of a dollar are the
milling. A San Francisco Chronicle
reporter thought so, too, until the
point happened to arise in a conver
sation with C. M. Gorham, coiner at
tne -Mint in that city.
Mr. uorham went into the coin
ing-room ana picked up a "blank.
a round
piece of plain silver cut out
of a silver bar.. It had gone through
one machine, which had slightlv
rounaea
. The b
....
the edges.
ant Tiro Cr1 rrrrnA r mill
-rftaAi f f MO Ul S IJ 1U a 1X1111"
ing machine, and when it came out a
second or two later the rim was flat
and the edges of the rim were raised
a little above the level of the sides.
The ver j "milling" is'this raising of
the rim of a: blank piece of money,
and the noun "milling" is this plain
raised rim without reference to any
corrugations anywhere. The pur
pose of the milling is to protect the
surtace Of the sides from wear.
The milled blank was dropped into
a stamping machine, from which- it
droDDed a oerfect dollar. While, in
the madj tine the piece dropped into
a corrugated collar, and the piece,
expanding under great pressure, the
rim was forced into the corrugations
ana Decame similarly corrugated.
i nese parallel notches or corruga
tion!, generally called tne milling,
constitute tne "reeding."
