THE WIZARD SICK,
Confirmation of Reports That Gould
Breaking Down.

Confirmation of Reports hat Gould II
breaking Down.
Nsw YoRk, Oct. a,-Renewed eoniirma'
tion of the story to the effect that Jay
Gould has broken down physically. and
that his health is in an extremely critica
condition, has, according to an evening
paper, been received, MIR. Gould wss not
at his Office to-day, and 1t is learned that
ander advice OF his physician he did not
leave his home ut Tarrytown. Any further
tax or strain upon his weakened nervous
forces would, in all probability. be fol-
lowed by disastrous consequences, tho
physicians think, and he cannot be FER
mitted in his present condition of health
to attempt any mental or physical exer-
tion. Carefully bundled up, he took a
drive this morning, and those who saw him
said he looked very worn and feeble, and
that his features were pale aud drawn.
That he is very sick there is no
doubt whatever, says the paper quoted, and
it is generally believed that he will be
obliged to give up business activities, at
least for the present. The paper then cites
an incident occurring At the Missouri
Pacific meeting Wednesday. stating that
the accounts previously given OF Mr..
Gould's proatration on that occasion havs
been fully corrcborated by several of those
were present. G5

What Bacerat Is.

Baccarat. rarely played in America,
is the favorite fashionable gambling
game of England and the Continent.
1t is gambling pure and simple. may
be played by any number of players
and with any number of packs of
cards. All bet against the dealer,
who banks and deals from box sim
liar to cigar box. The face cards
each count ten, and the others accord
ing to the number Of spots. After
the bets have been made the dealer
deals two cards to each of the players,
including himself, but the other play
ers must receive their cards before the
dealer is served.
The aim of the PLAYERS is to make
the numbers o, 10, 80, or as nearly
those as possible, as s, IL and 30.
Any player is at liberty to either
'stand" with the two cards first dealt
or call for more, at the risk of exceed
ing 20, when his tabe is forfeited to
the dealer. If, after the first distri-
button of two cards to each any player
has a "natural'-that is, a number
making o, or next in value, 19-he
declares it, and the banker pays all
who hold such superior hands to his
own, and claims from those holding
inferior hands. The players stake their
money separately, there being in fact,
as many separate games in progress as
there ar players, and the spectators
may wager their money on any one
of them, all of which must be accept
ed by the banker.
