DECLINE OF THE GYPSY RACE.-The
tremendous vitality of that strain of blood,
which has now been traced back by phylo-
logical researches to its Hindoostanic origin,
and which commenced its era of perpetual
prilsrmage and exile no less than five hun
dred years before Christ, and has now com
yleted its painful orbit from the extreme
east to the farthest west, is not yet On

Of grief and isolation, as Matthew Arnold
wrote of the gypsy girl seen at the Isle OF
Man, can be found among the wandering
bands in all the countries of Europe, and

GAMBLERS LOCKED IN AN AIR TIGHT
VAULT.-Among the desperate devices re-
sorted to by the Chicago faro-bank proprie-
tors, to evade the vigorous raids Of the po-
lice favorite one is to lock up the in
mates in fire proof vaults, which are sup
piled with ventilatiug holes for this pur-
pose. Sunday morning at o'clock George
Hankinss place was raided, and seventeen
players we're bundled into the vault, the
door locked and the police admitted, Han
kins aud colored servant remaining out
side Instead of going away, as usual, on
finding the room deserted, the officers, who
were up to the dodge, sat down and waited.
Noticing the ventilating holes, they stuffed
paper into them and again sat down and
waited In about an hour the air in the
vault had become so vitiated that the pris-
oncrs became desperate, and from the in
side came faint cries of "Lct us out we
arc nearly dead.Y Even then the proprie
tor refused for time to liberate them, and
when he did the seventeen inmates rushed
out in a state bordering on suffocation. One
old man was nearly dead, and all were ter
rIuy exhausted. The confinement of sew
enteen men in an alright vault only clever
feet square was dangerous experiment
which faro-bank patrons will hardly con
sent to try again, and its disastrous result
will be of value in aiding the police in thei,
efforts to suppress gambling in Chicago.
