passenger for the Falls City, quietly seated
himself at side table, upon which had been
previously placed "hietory of the four kings"
He began with some awkwardness to give the
cards "rifile." Anon selecting from che deck
two aces and q king, he remarked to a ''cap.

in succession, and pocketed his winnings with
considerable gusto.

ious though quiet spectator, doubtless debating
with himself whether he could bribe his con-
science to make just one guess. The game he
thought O very "sOft one" as he could keep bis

resolved, as palliation to hia troubled con-
science, to devote one-half his gains 30 come

Our novice gambler Was confounded, excited
and aggrleved at his loss, and unaccountabiy
surpraed that no had lost sight Of the winning

success; and again, and again. He was fairly
