New York, Nov. 22.-There was the

days past. Neither the beginning nor the
end however, was so well defined as yes

were very confusing all do. and made it
difficult to analyze the tol.e. except dur

developed after the opening and an
close. The close itself was rcactionary

local traction stocks made the readieSt

QUEER THINGS IN POKER.
Among Which Is the Luck OF BeEil


There are three things in poker"
said a Michigan man the other day,
(which have always impressed me
strongly. One is that beginner gen.
orally wins; that the simplest tricks
are used by the most successful card
sharks, and that the ruling passion Is
stronger than death. One case in par
ticular comes to my mind to illustrate
this latter fact. In New York town
lived man-we will say Mr.. B.-who
had played poker all his life. He was
seventy-two years Of age when taken
seriously sick; the doctors gave him
up as dying, but the sick man invited
in a few of his friends and insisted on
a final game Of poker. They played.
That was eight years ago. The man
is alive today, and the best doctors In
New York say that card playing saved
his life. From that time until today
a small card game is run at his home.
and, while the town is rabid on the
anti-gambling question, the authori-
ties, understanding the circumstances,
make no kick. In an honest game
new player almost always wins. I've
seen them go in against old players
men who thought they understood the
game-and win where professional
would lose his wad."
