The Cause Was Dealing from the Double
Pack Used in PInochle.
A party of five gentlemen were play

friend the other night and had most

The old gentleman who lives in the
house is German and is very fond of
the game of pinochle He was not pres

started their game, but it seems had

evening, says Washington Post. The
younger crowd were playing 10-cent

about an hour when one of the young
fellows discovered that owing to his
run Of bad luck he was SO loser. Seek
ing to retrieve his lost chips he sug-
gested change of decks, and, having
seen another deck on the mantelpiece,
procured it and started to deal. Five
hands were thrown around and the
betting began. They all stayed. The
hrst man bet the limit and was raised.
The next man squeezed his hand a few
seconds and raised again. So it went
all around the table, every player rails
ing the bet as ii came his turn. Fin
ally they all ran out of chips, but they
kept on betting aud several crisp
greenbacks were put in the pot When
the showdown came a riot was mar
rowly averted. One man had four aces
and a king, while the man next to him
held four kings and an ace. Another
threw down four jacks against a fourth
hand, which contained three queens
and pair of kings. The fifth man
wasn't in 1t at all, for he only held
three tens and a small pair. The old
gentleman's pinochle deck had done it
all All bets were declared off and the
game stopped. 1t took them all the
rest of the night to divide the pot ac-
eording to the bets that had been made,
after which one of the players said a
bad word and threw the double deck
il the fire.
