Mark A. Hanna has had his last
conference with Mckinley before the
St. Louis convention, going to Can
ton last Saturday. He said that his
visit had no significance because
Senator Proctor was there as a
guest of Mr., Mckinley. They were
not picking any running mate for
Mckinley and there would be no
conference with view Of grooming
Proctor for second place in case Reed
declines. Hanna said it was a job
they were willing to leave to the St.

losing any sleep over it as he had
his hands full looking after the Nc
Kipley end of the campaign.

CHANCES AT FARO.
Figures Prove That the Dealer Really
Has the Best Of 1t.


Has the Best Of 1t.
The expert calculator on the New
York World who figures out the dis
tance TO the moon and sun in inches
and does various other things of that
nature has figured out the odds in IA
vor of the bank in faro. roulette ana
rouge ct noir. He finds that the dealer
in a square faro game has an advan-
tage of nearly per cent and that he
cannot fail to win in the long run. As
there are not very many people In
Butte who do not play faro occasion
ally, the Worlds manner of figuring
out the percentage will be interesting.
1t says:
Faro. the most distinctively Ameri-
can gambling game, has this adNant-
age for the dealer that when splits cc-
cur-in other words, whenever the card
turned up for the dealer is Of the same
denomination as that turned up for the
players-half of the stakes on that card
go to the dealer. This percentage in
favor OF the bank. though seemingly
small and hardly noticeable in its er-
fects on a small number of turns. viii
in the end result in a large total gam.
To ascertain the exact chances in the
dealers favor we have only to find
how many twO-Card combinations can
be made from full pack, and next see
how many Of these combinations VIII
have both cards Of the same denomina-
ton. Then dividing the latter result
by the former we will get the chance
of a split occurring on any one turn.
We find the number of sets of two
cards each which can be formed from
full pack by dividing % times 81 by
times 3 The result Is 1926. Now. to
satisfy the condition that both cards
must be of the same denomination,
any one Of the - cards may be drawn
first. but the second card must be one
of the three Of the same denomination
which were left in the pack. This
gives - times 3. divided 10y l times ,, or
IS sets which contain both cards of the
same size The chance of split oc-
curing on any one turn is therefore IS
divided by 1926. equally LII. As the
bank only gets half the stakes when a
split does occur the dealers actual per-
| cen;age will be 1-34, or about per
cent
That ie to say. the bank has an ad-
vantage of nearly 3 per cent. in a faro
game that is entirely square. But the
average dealer has other resources
than those provided by the odds Of the
game. Any one who glanccs over the
pages Of the catalogue of dealer in
| so-called sporting goods" Will observe
| that faro boxes are of many kinds, and
| that their price varies not according to
their material or ornamentation, but
| according to the degree and kind of
unfairness of which they are capable.
| 4 square faro box can be bought from
| s. to $15 while a "sand-telr' or nee
| dle-telI' box cannot be obtained for
| less than S25 to 500. As a matter oi
| fact more dishonest boxes than square
ones are sold This gives some idea
of the odds against which the faro
| player goes up.
