A New Gambling Device.

A Washington correspondent writes:
For many years Washington has led all
other cities of anything like her popu-
lation in specializing and gambling.
Westinghouse play poker, bet on
horse and boat races, buy and sell stocks
and grain, and speculate in every con-
ceivable manner in excess of all other
people. They only want an opportuni-
ty to chance money, and they take the
risk. But it has remained till few
days ago for them to go mad in this
business.
About week ago a man came here
and opened a stock and grain exchange.
In the room adjoining the board where
the telegraphic quotations are posted an
outfit like that usually made for buck
et-shop was opened. Instead of posting
telegraphic quotations, however, the
proprietor put up stock and grain quo
ting machine. 1t Is a contrivance-a
piece of fine mechanism-somethi
like an automatic clock. It is wound
up SO that it runs from the opening, at
9 A. NJ, till the closing, at P. NJ. Every
half minute two cards, on which Is
printed the name of 8 stock and its
imaginary price, drop down upon
dial, one beside the word decline"
and the other beside the word lad
vance" AS the quotations, which are
printed in large letters and figures, so
that all in the room may read, appear,
the old ones drop out, and the change
is announced by the ringing OF q gong.
When the change of quotation comes

er writes it upon the board, the same as
the quotations are taken from a sstick.
er." When there is an advance, Of
course there is like decline, by which
the shorts suffer when the s.longs''
win, the same as legitimate speculation.
The broker charges the regular one
eighth commission. The correspondent
visited the place, and, finding more
people before the machine-board than
that announcing legitimate transactions,
inquired of a dealer if he did not think
men were pretty nearly insane when
they played against a machines piece
of mechanism made to beat the dealers
and win for the owners.
'Oh, mol" exclaimed the enthusiastic
Spectator. This machine is Just as
fair as the regular speculation. You
see, when one man loses another wins
that is, if there is man on the other
side. The dealer only makes his COM
mission-that is, If there is always q
man buying when another sells, and
vice versa. Why, a man sold yesterday
all day, beginning with $40, and he
drew out 1920. It's SO quick and reg !,

"For four years, rheumatism and neuralgia

pounds in weight, and for months was expect
