WHERE POKER RULES.
The Hot Springs the Most Thorough
Gambling Resort in America.

The Hot springs the Most thorough
Gambling Resort in America.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Almost any man at the Hot Springs
would rather hold four aces than be Presi-
dent. Some men come here for their health,
to get cured of rheumatism, to rest and
change the subject; others come here to get
away from snowstorms and climatic kicks,
or from red liquor and the nicotine fiend,
and others for no reason discoverable except
their ability to pay hotel bills. But there
is hardly a man who does not play poker
when he gets here. Some play 1t for their
health. Some don't. Here and there
some dear old fogies settle down in a
corner for a game of whist, and in
the evening the ladies~-heaven bless them i
make whist an excuse for conversation. The
quiet and harmless Joys Of cribbage, own,
| have tasted, and ell chre, progressive and
straight, is played in solemn state once
week and oftener in the big hotel parlors.
But when a man taxes deck of cards in
sober earnest here, poker is the result. In
the Arkansas Club, the principal gambling
house here, faro. perhaps, is first favorite;
but l understand that more money is lost
and won even there at poker, and the rou-
lette wheel can not whirl fast enough to
keep pace with the "ante" of the national
game.
Nearly all the buildings in town are two
stories high. The ground floor is a saloon
or store, and the second floor a gambling
shop of some sort. The achitects' have
planned with an eye to poker. In nearly
every second-hoor room in the business part
of the city, often in daytime and always at
night men are constantly shutting and deal
ing cards In all tine hotels card playing is
incessant Poker is the game, and the
stakes vary with the place and the player.
You can find negro walters who are content
with 2-cent ante, and from there mount to
the game without limit, at which only a
wealthy man can afford to lose.
There are all sorts and sizes of gamblers
here. The aristocrat, who frequeDts Phil
Daly's when he is in the east, and can tell
you curious tales of Monte Carlo or of
Carlsbad 10 its palmy days; dignifed old
man. with gray hair and a piercing eye,
and grip like wise, not a gambler in
looks, but professional gamester all the
same, survives here still. He is not so often
met here as be used to be, if the stories of
the veterans be true.

to his diary the gold was found on the

entries Of his book from that day to the
middle of May; and then | began an
investigation which made me familiar
with the diaries Of Azariah Smith, a
survivor of the Mormon battalion and
Of the mill builders at Coloma, and
with the diary of Sutter.

TALLY with n another, and with Mar

the discovery he took specimens of the
gold TO Suffers fort. Smith made his
entries on Sunday as a rule. and on the
SOth Of January he wrote that on the
preceding week gold had been found at
the mill, and that Marshall had gone
to New Helvetia TO have il tested. This
was probably written in the morning,
for Bigler's entry made on the same
day mentions that the test was success

DISCOVERY OF colo.

ms Disputed Date Is NOW Established
ny Documentary Evidence.
The various societies Of California
pioneers are accustomed 70 celebrate
the 18th Of January as the date of the
discovery Of gold by J.. ". Marshall az
ColOma. bet that il is an error is shown
NJ. John :. Hittell in The Century as
follows "a fac sini;le of the entry in
Bigler's diary being printed in the mag
zine as ocular evidenced:
The first record Of the discovery, and
the only one made on theSay Of its oc-
~eurrence, was in the diary Of Henry w.
Bigler, one Of the Mormon labOrers at
the mill. He was an American by
birth, then a young man, and now a
respected citizen Of st. George, Utah.
He was in the habit Of keeping a 2
lar record Of his notable observations
and experiences, selecting topics for re-
mark with creditable judgment. His
journal, kept during his service in the
Mormon battalion and his subsequent
stay in California, is one of the valuable
historical documents of the state. On
The oath of January, in the evening,
Bigler wrote in his diary, This day
some kind of mettle was foand in the
~io l.oe that looks like goald."
Nothing was said in public about the
date of the discovery until 1856, eight
years after the event, when Marshall
published a letter in which he said that
he found gold at Coloma about the
10Th" of January, 1s4s. Neither then,
mol at any subsequent time, did he
claim that his recollection of the day
was aided by a written memorandum.
In 1857 he published a statement that
the discovery was made on the 18th,
18th OF goth. His biography, prepared
under his direction, and printed in
1870, fixed the 18th as the precise day.
As years elapsed he became more exact
perhaps under the influence Of public
opinion, which from 1856 10 1886 ac-
cepted the 18th az the day.
On the 9th Of September, 1856, at the
annual celebration of the admission Of
The state into the Union, I delivered an
