From the San Francisco Chronicle,
That well-dressed and generally pc

OF gossip affecting one Of its members
of most robust proportions and 1
young professional man who is only
dilettante in the sporting world
The story goes that two men were
members of poker party which
played from Monday evening unit
Office hours yesterday morning In the
club room of well-known Kearny
street gambling house. The party
then became reduced 10 the two con-
cerned in the story, when the diet
tante suggested that they should re-
tire TO small room in the rear and
play alone. They did so, aud twice
when their privacy was disturbed by
a third person the diletiaute request
ed that they should be left alone.
They played until O'Clock yesterday
afternoon, when the sport remarked
to his opponent, who had been losing,
but had 1928 left:
when you lose 800 more, ifyou
do, I'm going TO quit. Pm tired"
The 800 was soon lost, the sport
pocketed his winnings and the other
asked, carelessly:
slow much have you wonr'
The sport empticd his pocket on
the table, counted the money and
found that he had 1928 Then the
dilettante.coollyr reached for the pile
put it in his pocket. and arose with
tho remark:
"Come TO my Office and I'll settle"
The proceeding was 30 cool that
the sport thought he was to be paid
in II check, which would include $500
which the other prviously owed him.
lie followed the amateur as Ear rs the
corner of Bush and Kearney streets.
when the latter turned on the sport
aud said:
81 don't want you to follow me any
further. lfyou do there will be
tr uble."
AS he said this he moved his hand
in the direction of his pistol, wea-
pom with which he Is an expert. The
adipOse sporting man was decidedly
amazed at this, but only remarked:
"Well, don't propose to get into
shooting scrape over measly $780,"
turned on his heel and departed
The gossips last night referred with
particular emphasis TO the fact thai
the sport has no legal redress, as the
manner In which the money was la
ken could be claimed 10 be merely II
loan, and there is no evidence to
prove even that. 1t was also re-
ported that when the couple reached
Bush street. the dilettante said, "you
robbed me of this money, aud now
propose to keep IT," The comment
on this was that anyone would have
to play very fine game TO rob that
man at cards"

Suicides in Austria.

In Austria the dog-days appear to
have tie curious effect of causing more
suicides than any other season of the
year. To-day (July y several re-
markable cases are reported. In one
instance, cadet, aged twenty, living
in barracks in Vienna, put the muzzle
81 ~ gun to his chin, and, pulling the
trigger, died instantly. Another case
is that of an artillery lieutenant at Cat
taro who blew himself to pieces by
firing a large cannon against himself in
a rather ingenious manner. In third
case ayoung man and girl jumped into
the Danube together. A fourth suicide
was that of sculptor who hanged him
self. These by no means exhaust to-
days list. At Prague two young lovers,
aged respectively sixteen and fifteen,
fastened themselves together with a
rope and then jumped into the Moldau.
At Pesth fashionable master tailor
ended his troubles by hanging himself
to bedpost, while a waitress at Brunn
shot herself with revolver. A son OF
rich Vienna merchant, aged twenty
one, and a clerk also took their lives
with revOlvers. The latter gives as his
reason his inability to support his
parents owing to the smallness of his
salary, while the other was the victim
