A NEW GAMBLING JOINT
A "MONTE CARLO" ESTABLISHED
NEAR THE FAIR GROUNDS.
Sunday Was a Dull Day with the
scents, who Preside Over Faro
Bank and Crap Table.

The new Monte Carlo at the fair grounds
is not one of very large proportions. There
is a place there fitted up for gambling
There are a few well-known faces about the
place-faces which have been seen for years
about Indianapolis gambling resorts-but
for one day, at least, there was no gam
bling. Whether it is because the sports are
not aware of the fact that the place is in
existence or whether there is sufficient op-
portunity in the city for the satisfaction of
the gambling passion may be a question,
but the fact seems to be that the patronage
of the Fair Grounds Monte Carlo is light
A visit to the place yesterday-Sunday is
a day when few gambling houses operate
showed that everything is there for the
accommodation of the sportively inclined
There is Charlie Johnson, one of the oldest
OF the old-timers. He sat with his feet rest
ing comfortably upon a table which sus-
piciously resembled a faro LAY out" He
smoked good cigar" and seemed to be
prosperous, but it may have been in antici-
patton of the good times that he expected.
There was also table upon which dice
might have been rolled" but there We're
no dice and no players. There were also
two round tables around which the great
national game of draw could have been
played very comfortably There were no
players, however. Sunday is always duh
The place seems to be conducted by
Charles Johnson and Kid Pence. On the
first floor of the place Is restaurant and
cigar stand Soft drinks are also served
TO catch the bicyclists who ride that way.
This department is said 10 belong 10 Pence.
The gambling paraphernalia is on the sec
ond floor. The building Is an old affair,
moved from the fair grounds to the oppo-
site side Of Thrty-eighth street.
