HELD THE BANK.
How the Great bulgarian StambulofI
Played Baccarat.

I had looked in late after dinner at the
British agency, expecting only to find
the usual Skittle billiards and backgam-
mon in progress. To my surprise
found the cardroOm more crowded than
| had ever seen it before. Not only the
usual attaches, but a bevy Of Ministers
and officers were crowded around the
table NJ. Stambulof was taking a
bank at baccarat. There must have
been over 1900 in the bank. besides a
stack of I. o. U.s-m0re or less worth
less The bankers eyes glistened in a
way which showed that he was taking
the game very seriously. He kept his
hands over the pack, clutching it in a
nervous way, which would certainly
never have been permitted in any
French club. He twisted the cards out
with curious jerk, and when he had to
turn q card up he slapped it violently
I suppose in order to show he was in
high spirits. 1 have never known him to
talk so much. Usually he was the most
taciturn Of men.
His luck was truly phenomenal1
have never seen so many Fights ana
mines at a time before. At last the
stakes against him became so small
that he threw the cards on the floor
with impatience, and then asked, it'll
an air Of magnificence, What everybody
would drink. This surprised me. for
it was q matter much commented up
on that no one who went to see him
ever got as much as a glass of tea out
Of him, and that though both he and NJ.
Grekoff had an extra allowance from
the Sobraje for entertaining the for
eign representatives. Both Ministers,
however. while accepting every invita-
ton which came in their way, made no
return, but simply put their savings by.
The extent of Mr.. Stamubloff, S savings
is another matter which is very hot!y

A TEN MILE RACE.
Jack Prince Matched to Ride His Vince Against Three Horses Next
 Wednesday.

The Age-Herald yesterday announced the arrival in this city of MT. John s. Prince, better known as Jack Prince, the long distance bicycle champion. Mem ton was also made that he desired mak- ing a match between two horses for ten mile road race. The desired match has been made, though not exactly as stip- ulated in yesterdays issue. MT. F. H. Gafford accepted the challenge on the condition that he be allowed to use three horses instead of two each horse to have separate rider and the horse to have flying start. MT Prince is to be al- lowed five horses hitched to sulkies, with a wind and slurt splitter on each sulky, to set the pace for him. The fair grounds mile track has been secured for the race and the track will be put in condition to- morrow morning, when MT. Prince will begin training for the contest, which takes place Wednesday afternoon.
 This race promises to be one of the most exciting ever witnessed here. It seems to be altogether one-sided and in favor of the horses, as they will go a mile each and then have a rest and sponging while waiting their next turn, and MT. Prince will have to go continually, as he will find it necessary to make every moment count.
 The race will be for purse of $200.
