with an introduction from Chicago friend
Two DAYS later he returned and borrowed
s2a saying he was fat broke. A few days
after that he came to me once more, with q
fat roll of bills in his hands, and repaid me-,
rep,arking that he would be well heeled II he
could keep away from faro.
ITO make long story short, he agreed to
teach me a trick or two worth knowing. He
showed me how he could deal the cards at

most any cards be wished. I could scarcely
credit the evidence Of my eyes, but there it
was. The advantage be had over me In deal

tonishing Then he had q device which he
called the hold out, by means Of which he
could hold back any card he wished, and defy
detection.
"The hold out consists of . steel link and
spring device, which terminates In the sleeve
of the gambler who wears ii By a pressure
of the foot a small clasp steals out, takes
card, and when the pressure is removed the
spring withdraws back into tho sleeve, taking

ace, discarding four cards each time, instead
of five When he has things in shape be
