Leadley telegraphed last night that
he had signed Jerry Denny to play
third base for Cleveland until Captain
Tebeau is in shape. Denny was laid off
by New York earlier in the season be-
cause his arm was not in the best of
condition, and as Bassett is playing the
position well it was not thought policy to
take him out of the team when Denny's
arm recovered its strength. He is now
in splendid condition and everybody
knows he can play third when he is in
shape. Jack Doyle will go in and
catch in his regular turn. He will
catch Viau and Seward on the trip and

THE GAME OF BACCARAT.
How it is Acknowledgment mt
Tranby Croft.

The game of baccara or baccarat,
which is the talk of the civilized world
i'm connection with the English scandal
i'm which the price or Wales has been
involved. is similar to the familiar game
of ''twenty-one." 1t is played with or
binary playing cards. Any number Of
players may participate, and as many
packs of cards nay be used as necessary,
the number being increased to CORES
pond with the number of players. One
member of the party is selected TO act as
banker. He deals out the cards from a
box similar to a cigar box, after they
have been Shuiiled. The face
cards each count ten, and the
others according TO the number OF
their spots. After the bets have been
made the banker deals two cards to
each OF the players, including himself,
but the other PLAYERS must receive their
cards before the banker is served. The
aim of the players is 70 make the num-
berS Q, 10. %, or as nearly those as pos
Sible, ;, is and IS. Any player is at
liberty either to "Stand," or TO be ICON
tent" with the two cards first dealt or
TO call for more at the risk of exceeding
%, when his stake is forfeited to the
dealer. If. after the first distribution
of two cards to each, any player has a
natural is, sum making 9, or
next in value, 19-he declares it wins,
and the banker pays all who hold super
Tor hands to his own, and claims
from those holding inferior hands.
The players stake their money separate
ly, there being, in fact, as many Separ
ase games in progress rs there are play
erS, and the spectators may wager their
money on any of them. all of which
must be accepted by the banker.
Sir William Gordon Cumming is al
legged to have reSorted TO a form of
cheating known as the "pouSSette,"
that is. adding TO the stake when the
banker has lost and decreasing it when
he has won. Now, had the table been
better conducted it would have been i'm
possible for this to have occurred. Prior
To the banker making start he states
the amount in the bank-for example,
$50. Any one sitting down at the table
has the right u call the whole of the
bank, selecting the left or the right on
which to pick up the cards.
III the Oanh Is not Cdtleu Iuen Ine
banker proceeds to deal to F25 a side,
or rs much of it as may be marked" or
called the former meaning that the
money is placed on the table; the latter
that the banker has accepted the bet
without the money being Stakcd. The
latter course, however, is quite the eX-
ception, the ready coin being invariably
planked. Previous to the banker deal
ing the cards it is the duty of two Group
ierS, one on the right and the other on
the left. to count up the stakes deposit
ed on either side and then make up the
bank. Thus the banker knows, To the
coin, the exact amount Of his
liabilities. Had the game been proper
~ played at Tranby Croft, no one at
the ''pouSSette" would have
stood an earthly chance of either in
creaSing or decreasing his stake.

was watching a game of poker once
at Helena, Mont. The players were
gambler whom l knew slightly ana
who bore the sobriquet of Lucky Biz
and two miners.
Suddenly, after the hands were dealt
and the players had "chipped in" ana
drawn cards, Lucky Bill, with perfect
calmneSS and not so much as Shauow

His voice was steady and did not be-
tray particle of excitement. l thrust
the paper aimleSsly into my pocket ana

The play progressed. Lucky Bits
face was unyielding as stone and en-
tirely inexpensive. He noticed every
thing, however, and his vigilant eye did
not miss the slightest move on the part
of the .ther players. He was typicai
gambler amp one of the most successful
of his guild. Hence the Sobriquet.
At last there was an alteration be-
tween the two miners. Hot words en-
suei and revovers were drawn. Some
of the bystanderS interfered at this
point, and in the scuffie that followed, !!
