NEW CARD GAME.
'Fifty-nine" Likely to Take the
PIace of HGrnnd', This Sumner

1Fifty-nine" Likely to Take the
Place of "Grand" This Summer.
"Fifty-nine," the game that for
months past has been such n boon to
the winter resorts, promises to take the
place of grand this summer, says the
New York Evening Sun. Fifty nine"
may be played by from two to six per-
sons, but four, playing partners, make
the best game. The entire - cards are
used, but only six are dealt ut time.
The value of the cards Is as follows:
Ace, 1; king, &c; jack, l. ten, / ; nine, 9;
five, >; tray, 10; deuce, 1.-The sum of
which is 50. The player to the right of
the dealer has the first bid, and, ac-
cording to his hand, he may wager all
the way from to 80. He who makes
the highest bid names the trump and,
discarding all his cards but trumps,
calls for whatever number fills out the
hands to six. The other players do
the same. He who makes it leads, and
he must lead trumps.
Trumping in is forbidden until n suit
is exhausted. Gains are counted ac-
cording to the value of the cards in
each players tricks when n hand is
played out. In case of n "cuchre'' the
loser subtracts from his score what
ever he bet. The winners add TO their
score whatever they have made. Two
hundred or more is the game. Unlike
most card games, fifty mine" does not
come from the west. Its origin, 3indeed,
is wrapped in mystery, but it is first
class game, and it is undoubtedly in
for long lease Of popularity. The
Oftener you play it the better you like
1t. There's more in it than greets the
ear.
