WON $4,000 IN ONE NIGHT.
Remarkable Game of Dice and Re
marknble Run of Luck.
Era oil


A few nights ago two South Americans
and the wei-kno wn capitalist and clubnIan
of San Francisco, william Rourn, dined to-
gether at one of the small restaurants on
O'Farrell street. There were others in the
party, and several joined in little sport
with the diceboX. Twenty-dollar pieces
changed hands with such rapidiiy that all
the players, except the two rronithe south
country and the resident high roller, drew
out of the game.
i'iro Pinto1s played with two dice, each
PLAYER holding Il box of his own. In course
of time the game between the three pla yers
closed with the San Francisco man win
ner of $4,000. Then new game was
opened between the winner and bIooded
South American.
The outconIe of this game i s the talk of
club coteries. The stakes We're so high and
the payments of the loser so promptly made
that Tue old-tinlers, who saw fortunes won
and osi in lSiS. are falling into a reminis-
cent frame of mind.
This particular after-dinner session is
sure TO be the talk OF the town for months.
The amounts staked ranged along from
$500, 81, 900, then up to $1,000 on Single
throw, finally reaching $4,000 side
Fortune still smiled oD Mr.. Bourn, of San
Francisco. and he stood a winner of
S14, 1000 aud S32, 900 or S46 900 In all.
Atthis stage of the game, when the spec
taters expected to see the South American
play the role of a ''quitter," the blood of
the sport from the south land was tested.
He proposed one final cast for double or
quits" $32, 900 a side, S64. 900 or nothing.
1t is not every player whom fortune has
favored by a steady run OF luck that Will
consent to stake all of his winnings on one
hand, and, besides, it is an axiom of dice
throwers that the proposition to double at
each throw will break any bank in the world
If the player has the coin to double his
stakes as often as he loses.
This after-dinner seance was not in the
line of regular banking game. The play
ers Were gentlemen, and not gamblers by
profession, hence the winner consented to
give his friendly antagonist chance to
even up.
The bones were tossed for $64,00o or
nothing, and chance again rendered de-
cree against the South American. The
San Francisco capitalist won the stake,
and on the following day cashed the South
Americans check for S32, 900.
Well known men who saw the game
assert positively that the South American
did not plead intoxicatinn or mental in
firnity when the time for a settlement came
but paid his losses like a thoroughbred
sport of the old school.
So in that famous game OF piro pinto
Mr.. Bourn viii be known as the winner
of $4,000 in one session.

HIS REPUTAF1oN MADE.
One Critic who, Gained Renown by
What He Didn't Say.

What He Dtdn't say.
Chicago Record.
To establish reputation as an art con-
noisseur a man may spend two or three
years visiting the, salons of Europe and
writing criticisms for publication.
Thismethod is buth tedious and expensive.
BARLEY, who lives onfthe South Side, has
discovered a better way. BARLEY wears big
spectacles and he can't tell Corut from q
Turner.
Not long ago he paid visit at the home
of a SouIn Srue millionaire who has O col
lection of pictures on which he prides HIM
self greatly. The millionaire was showing
BARLEY his treasures, and BARLEY was nod

the corner of the library where the paint

lionaire was descanting enthusiastically TN
;neir merits. AT last he passed before a
black old picture, cracked and scanned with
age.
And this is my Murillo. rate ii very

Just at this moment BARLEY thought 1t
would be necessary tn say ing TO ac-

having any ideas on the subject, he re-

More than seventy years ago, when this
practice OF stIbstitutfIn of state Interference
for free individual enterprise and energy
was first mouted, and before-the destructive
policy lef protection had struck its Roots in
American legislation, my great country
man, Danief WEBSTER, had sad: How, sir
do shipnwners and navigators accomplish
| this? How IS fr-ttiat they are able to meet
and in SONG measure To overcome universal
competition? Not, sir, by protection and

relies on itself 10 protect ITSELF
II need not say the navigation of the
country is essential to its Lonor and its de-
fcDse.
ut is=iBcoTrect TO speak of protection
as national policy, for that il can never be,
because IT can never be other than the
fostering of special interests at the expense
of the rest, and this oveTtlrows the great
principle of equality before the law, and
thal resultant sense Of Justice and equity
in the odRlinistra tioa OF sovereign powers
which is the true cause of domestic tram

HIGH SCALE OF LIVING.
THE value or protective taxation to
its beneficiafies consists in its in
equality, for without discriniina tion in
favor OF some one there is no advantage
TO any one, and if tie tax is equally laid
ON all, ali will be kept on the relative
level from which they started, and this
simply means Il high scale of living 10 all,
high cost of production of everything, and
consequent inability to compete anywhere
outside of the orbit of such restrictive laws.
''But the enforcement OF individual ener-
gies and the impairment of manly self

belief in mysterious powers of the State
and a reliance upon them to take the
