 And all the time the dealer pursued his occupation stolidly and carelessly. O, so stolidly o, so carelessly The exclamations of the players now winning and then again and again losing, had no effect on him. He seemed merely a mechanical machine, turning cards. And any one who did not know, would find nothing in his manner to. excite 8 suspicion of foul play. It was the height of theatrical art-that mans face and that mans dealing.
 My companion lifted the curtain by few whispered words, and was behind the scenes.

 There was nothing suspicious looking in the box, and simple silver dealing box such as is used in all gambling houses. To all outward appearance it was as honest as day. But learned that by by an arrangement of springs within it was so fixed that the dealer could take out one or two cards at pleasure, and lay three or four cards on the table at pleasure, though apparently only laying two. I also learned that in shuf1ing the cards a prepared pack was placed in the box instead of the shuffied one, trick which the most ordinary ledgerdemain could accomplish unsuspected by the play CTS. And thus, with his 1.-two card box" the careless appearing dealer had the game in his own hands, and turned up black or red at pleasure.

WASHINGTON, March Is. .
The House COMMITTEE on Reform in

of Colonel Polk, Doorkeeper of the
House of Representatives, have agreed
upon q report to-day, by a vote OF
seven against three, charging him with
q violation of laws and q loose man
agement of his office In the matter of
appointments, recommending his re-
moval, and that the subordinates of
the House be placed under the charge
of the Sergeant at Arms until the
House shall determine upon the cleo
ton of another Doorkeeper. 1t was
shown that many appointments were
made or the importantly of some
members of the House, who promised
appropriations of money to all
deficiencies occurring from such APP
Eointments: and, further, that the
troubles which attended the Door
keeper resulted in part from the fault
OF the present system OF dispensing
patronage. Nothing appeared in evi

that the Doorkeeper intention ally did
wrong in the premises.

POLITICS Ar THE BAY.

The correspondent Of the Carson
Tribune has been talking politics with
a mixed crowd of Nevadans at the
Cosmopolitan Hotel in San Francisco.
The interview Is detailed in a gossipy,
entertaining style, and We doubt not 1t
will prove interesting to the sovereigns
of he Great East. It is evidently writ.
ten with a Republican quill. Hereit is:
There were In the crowd politicians
from Carson, Elko, Douglas county,
storey and White Pine counties. and
other places In sagebrush land, and OF
course the con versation turned on the
coming election in Nevada. There
were some newspaper men in the
crowd, two OF them pioneer editors of
San Francisco, and you may bet that
there was cheap talk" The Guberns.
torial question came after the argument
that ensued as to who are Nevada's
Senators aud whose California's. Well.
on the Democratic side came Jim
Hagerman, Of Reno, j. c. Currie, OF
Virginia, and Broadhorns at large.
The third term was fully discussed,
and 1t was concluded, mem con, to let
the old man "drap," and take up either
Currie or Hagerman. Then they
turned over the other leaf, and one OF
the crowd, drawing out a Nevada
newspaper. read the name OF X.
NJ. Daggett as candidate for the
Gubernatorial position. Well, / really
can not begin to tell you what occurred,
for Notwithstanding the fact that, per
sonally, I love that homely looking
Afigy OF manhood, and admire his
genius ss a writer and political sharp
or, I was not prepared to hear him
mentioned for such an office. But the
laugh OF those newspaper men WAS too
rich to think of. and The remarks they
made about Daggett the smart, n
Bradley the not smart, will ever re.
main impressed on my memory; and
l would have given all my jewelry II
the proprietor G? of the Virginia
Enterprise had been present. All the
candidates were freely c~anvassed, for
there were members of both political
parties present, and I really think that
for once the State ticket will not be put
upon Montgomery street. By the way,
one old newspaper proprietor and edi-
tor remarked that, as Nevada had
never had an educated Executive since
1t became a State, Daggett Tor Govern
or and Harry Mighels for Lieutenant
Governor would make a strong team.
