The President and the Bows,

From the Boston Post
The one thing that stands out most
prominently in the politics of Ar
thurs administration is that he has
not changed his method, and that he
will rely for winning on the old games
that have won so often in days gone
by, and are of that peculiar character
that they are best carried on under
the supervision of such men as Mr..
Stephen w. Dorsey. He will make
no effort to conciliate the swallow-tail
element of his party. His reliance is
on the ''boys" and on trading with
alleged Democrats like John Kelly,
as it has always been. Moreover,
1.-THE boys" in whom Mr.. Arthur con
tinues to repose confidence are the
Stalwart "boys''-thc same old ssboys''
with whom he used to train in New
York. The utterly unfit Teller was
made the Secretary of the Interior
because he is one of 'the boys" of
the new and far west. Brewster rep
resents Cameron's "boys'' in Penn
sylvania, Folger the New York
"boys" who follow Conkling and the
President, Howe the old fashioned
'boys" of the Northwest, and Chan
dler "the boys generally.

TRANSCENDENTAL POKER.
The Straight Flush and Four Aces.
New York Times.l

New York Timesl
1t is not many years since the
straight flush was introduced into
the game of poker and given the
power to beat four aces. The history
of the development of the straight
flush since the date Of its introduc,
ton affords a curious instance of the
way in which nature supplies every
demand that is made upon her. In
1856 q straight flush occurred once
in every 167, 900 hands, four aces oc-
curing at the same date once in
every 1927 hands. With the de-
mand for straight Pushes the fire.
quency of their appearance increased,
until at the time of the famous tran
sit OF Venus, when scientific parties
were sent out by our Government to
the end of the earth, the straight
flush, according to the excellent au-
thority of Prof. Hardness Of the Ma
val Observatory, could be expected
to appear once in every 32, 1000 hands
in round numbers. In the very
able paper on poker read ut the meet
ing OF the American Scientific Asso-
citation last August, it was asserted
that the straight flush had so great
iy increased i'll frequency that it was
commonly met once in every 1,147
hands, thus being very nearly as
as four aces.
