Thin DEVICES OF GAMBLERS.-
New York .S,ta publishes long article
on the various means used by gamblers
in poker games, which the Chronicle
repub!ishes. None Of the clever tricks
enumerated by the S,us would succeed
in this section Of the country, from the
fact that they are too well known and
clumsy for the advanced state Of the
game in Carson. A man might strap
a looking glass to his knee in New
York in order to see how many aces he
was giving out, OF he might paint the
denomination of the cards in big letters
On the back, but in Carson, city recog-
nized the world over as the hub of the
great national game, no one would ever
dare to resort to so clumsy device.
The players have reached such perfec-
ton in the pastime that they are all up
to snuff, and cheating is impossible.
Per consequence the game is honestly
conducted, and the man who would
people his sleeve with kings, or start
a colony of jacks in the back Of his neck,
would never dare to be candidate for
Office in Ormsby county.

In yesterdays APPEAL appeared
brief item that an East India millionair,
widow was at the Ormsby House. The
person in question whose real name i.
unknown, deserves more than a passing
notice. She first attracted public at
tention in San Francisco in 1868 or $50,
as the wife Of DR.. Mcbride, known all
over the Union as the "King of Pain y
AT that time she was noted for her reck-
less expenditure Of money to satisfy
personal Whins, as well as in the mat
ter Of relieving the worthy poor. Sub
seGuently she obtained a divorce from
Mcbride, and visited the East Indies
