sobriquet of Lucky Bill'O and two
miners. says the Detroit Free Press.
Suddenly. after the hands were dealt and
the players had "chipped in" and drawn

on the table, took notebook from his

Then he tore out the leaf and handed II
to me.
"Look at that when you get home to-
night"
His voice was steady and did not betray a
particle of excitement. thrust the paper

ter hardly a second thought.
The play progressed. Lucky Bills face
was unyielding as a stone and entirely mex
pressve. He noticed everything, however,
and his vigilant eye did not miss the slight

He was typical gambler and one Of the
most successful OF his guild. Hence the
sobriquet
At last there was an alteration between
the two miners. Hot words ensued and re-
volvers were drawn. Some of the bystand-
ers interfeTed at this point and in the
scuffie that followed / heard the sharp
whistle and splng Of bullet. Lucky Bin
(his good star in the descendant) fell to the
floor and expired without groan. He had
been killed by the accidental discharge Of
pistol in the hands of one of the miners.
