BETTING ON THE RAIN.
The oueerest Gambling Game In III.
World Is Played at Calcutta

WorId Is Played at Calcutta
One Of the most curious forms ~
gambling in the world is "rain gam
bling, ~ which in the winter season ~
the year is at its height in Calcutta
dhe principal rain gambling den is in
Cotton street, Burra bazaar
No one who has not visited the nlaco
can have any conception Of the vast
crowds which at every hour of the dav
and FAR into night pass in and out
Inc great majority are Mawaris, who
are born spectators, but there are as
well plenty Of well to do Europoans
Eurasians, Jews, Armenians and Greeks
and women too. All swarm into the
small courtyard where this strange
FORM OF gambling is carried Oh, through
narrow entrance barely 3 feet wide.
Inc courtyard Is about 200 feet SQUARE.
The far famed tank with a spout falling
INTO the courtyard is the one SPOT where
all eyes are fixed. The tank stands at
the edge Of a second floor roof. It is
about feet long by feet wide and 9
inches deep, with the spout opening in
ward, some 3 or 1 inches from the bot
tom From this it will be seen that il
requires pretty heavy downpour for
at least ten minutes to cause the spout
to flow. Intermittent drizzles. which
partly fill this tank, do not count. as
the shower to fill it must pour down un-
lnterruptedly, and then the bets are
won or lost.
Chances are taken either for or against
the spout running. A gray haired.
wlzened old man is the owner of the
den, and there is another similar place
across the road, only smaller. On the
roof, over the fifth floor, there is a
small, square watch tower, in which
are stationed five or six men, whose
duty Is to scan the horizon closely and
report on the formation Of rainclouds.
On these reports the odds rise or fall.
A bet made and won one dav is al
ways paid the following morning.
Everything seems to be "on the square. "
and indeed there is little chance for
cheating. The odds range as high as l
to 70 on some days, even in the rainy
season. Many have made fortune in a
single day. One person won over e5.-
600 in the course of a few weeks. But
he worked the system on scientific meth
ods. New York Herald.

GOLD AND SILVER PLATING.
Process That Is Described as Simple by
a Professional.

The following is a very simple method
for gold and silver plating: Take an
ounce Of nitrate of silver, which is
made as follows: One ounce of fine sill
yer, one ounce nitric acid, one-half
ounce water. Put the silver into Flor
ence flask, then pour in the acid and
water. Place the flask ON the sand bath
for few moments, taking care not to
apply too much heat, and as soon as
chemical action becomes violent remove
the flask to cooler place and allow the
action to go on until it nearly Stacks,
when, if there is any silver still remain
ing, the flask may be placed ON the bath
again until the silver disappears. If the
acid employed is weak, it may be neces-
sary to add a little more. The red fumes
formed when chemical action is going
Oh disappear when the acid has done its
work.
The nitrate of silver formed during
the above operation should be poured
into porcelain capsule and heated un-
til a pellicle appears ON the surface,
when it may be set aside to crystalline.
The uncrystallized liquor should be
poured from the crystals into another
vessel and heat applied until it has
evaporated sufficiently to crystalline.
Then you have nitrate Of silver. Take
an ounce of nitrate of silver, dissolve in
a quart of distilled rainwater. When
thoroughly dissolved, throw in a few
crystals of hyposulphite of soda, which
Will at first form brown precipitate,
but which becomes redissolved if enough
hyposulphite has been added. There
must be present a slight excess of this
salt The solution is now complete.
Take a sponge, dip it in the solution
and rub it over the work to be plated.
A solution of gold may be made in
the same way and applied as described.
A concentrated solution of either gold
Or silver may be used for work that has
been worn off by applying it with a
camel's hair brush and touching it with
a strip of zinc The writer has used this
method with the most satisfactory sue
cess. The gold or silver used in making
must be perfectly fine e-Jewelers' Cir

HE TRICKED JAY GOULD.
How Jim Fisk Checked Out the Little
Mans Bank Account.

How Jim Fisk Checked Out the Little
Mans Bank Account.
Gould kept a balance of some $50, 900
in the Tenth National bank for his per-
sonal account, household expenses, etc.
Being called west on a mission that
lasted several weeks, he left his check
book locked i'll the safe drawer, to which
Fisk had a key. In the Office was a
clever young clerk whom Fisk had
caught in the act Of initiating his and
Gould's signatures, the imitation Of
Gould's being a facsimile. Within an
hour after the wizard s departure check
book and clerk were together under
Fisk's supervision, and at his instiga-
tion more than a dozen blank checks
were signed with the name of Jay
Gould, and in the course Of a month
the $50, 900 had disappeared, Fisk be-
ing at that time in the clutches of Josie
Mansfield
On the very day Of Gould's return
the bank sent notice of overdraft. The
little man nearly tainted. He had sew
eral fits. His excitement was intense.
He declared that there was a conspiracy
to ruin him. He hastened to the bank.
and they showed him the checks, signed
by himself they did not doubt, and he
raved and tore his hair. Nor could he
doubt the signature 1t was genuine,
even in his own eyes. A rigid investiga-
ton was started, which Fisk put an
end to by informing Gould, with many
a poke in the ribs, that he had drawn
and used the money.
"Did Fisk make good?'' an innocent
asked when the story was told.
"Return the $50, 000?'' was the reply.

A Berlin correspondent tells as true
a story about a joke that resulted some
what seriously for the man who invent
ed it. This person was incredulous
about the discriminating appreciation
of wines which a distinguished friend
of his claimed to possess, and to test
the matter invited him to dine at a hO-
tel whose landlord had previously been
instructed to set before the cOnnoisseur
a bottle of excellent moselle. 1t was to
bear no label or other marks to distin-
guish it from win ordinaire, and if
questioned the landlord was to say that
it cost only small price. The invita-
tion was accepted and the plot was
carried cut. The guest had hardly taken
single sip from his glass, however, be-
fore he proved the injustice Of his hosts
suspicion by exclaiming over the merit
of the wine. He summoned the land
lord, and on hearing that its price was
marks instantly ordered 1000 bottles
of the same vintage. The order was
filled, and the host, rather than reveal
the failure of his trick, paid the differ
ence between the alleged and real price,
which amounted to something over
1000 marks

this is all done by simply
TERRACING THE HILLSlDES,

better plans for terracing than then
suggested. II was this: Dig water

a zone of 20 feet between the ditches-and
