How He Lost 1t.

In the days when 18 Royal street was
one of the most notable gam bling houses
in the country, said an old-timer in the
rotunda of the ST. Charles to New Or
leans Times Democrat reporter, a fel-
low who had lost his right arm in a
sawm i'll two years before was playing
faro in such luck that he had nearly all
the white and red checks out of the rack,
besides having better than half stack OF
blues. Two countrymen we're watching
his pay in open mouthed admiration,
when one made the remark:
That's smart man; wonder how he
lost his right arm ?"
Perhaps it was in the war"
II wonder how it was"
Don't you know how he lost his right
arm? ?" said an old gam bier who had been
losing and was in bad humor
Mo-
Would you like to?''
Yes
He lost it on the five of the deal before
the last"

NOTES.

Favorites were successful on three diff
ferent occasions yesterday.
"Chub'' Russell, a California boy, who
made quite reputation for his saddle
work in the West the past two seasons,
arrived here from Cincinnati yesterday.
Russell piloted the FIeischman horses last
season.
Abe Shields says he is glad to get back
to California once more and is confident
old Logan will be as big public favorite
as evel. Mr.. Shields brought along sew
eral other useful bread-winners from New
Orleans with him.
Ed Purser and his friends were all con-
fde nt' that Modestia beat Racina out in
the opening race of the day. notwit hstand-
ing the fact that the Burns e. Waterhouse
FLY Racina was given the decision. There
was much snarling and crashing of teeth
over the result.
Golden, who had the mount on Moreno
and Shultz, who plloted ST. Apollo, were
both set down for indifferent riding.
