THE GREEN CLOTH

In the Bella Union, or the California Ex-
change, aristocratically pitched on the Plaza,
the style of conversation across the green cloth
in cases of difficulty" was different, being
more debOnair, not so broad: .r
"a moment, IL you please" quietly remarks
an almost beardless desperate, covering his
pile with firm hand, and fixing his dangerous
eyes on the burly dealer of monte whom he
addresses; you can't stop there"
"Well, sir.n
Well-excuse me- but think you drew
two cards" ...-i .+. a.-.
{" / believe not I'll take your pile, if you
please; the keerwaiyo takes II. !"
-" Two cards 90 -.s. ."
"Your money" ...
And in each case the words are accompanied
by q quick but quiet movement, which dis
closes a revolver With the appearance of
these two new disputsnts-polished curt, Of
brief, but sharp and downright speech-there
is quick but fussless stir among the specta-
tors around the table. In a moment clear
space is formed in the midst Of still circle of
flashing eyes, compressed lips and clenehed
hands. You may count twenty, deliberately,
ere you hear breath drawn or see the slight
est movement.
