RULES OF PROGRESSIVE POKER
Game Where n Small Fortune Is
Needed to Play Each Hand.

progressive poker IS a game not often
played in this country, though 1t is said
10 De comparatively common in England
1t is not played anywhere excepting
among those who are eager for the ex-
citement of high play. The limit in this
game is not a restriction of the bet to a
given amount, but rule against betting
Tess than given amount To illustrate:
Six men are playing, and y has the age
lie antes, say 81. 3 looks at his cards
and If he desires to play he must put
up Sz Up TO this point the game is the
regular one. Z, however, cannot come IN
by paying 2. If he thinks his cards lust
ify play he must put up ST. D in turn
must put up s., & SIG, and F S32 If then
A desires to play 1t costs him $63 In ad-
diuon to the one he put up originally, and
each player in turn must make his ante
good TO the extent of S64 before he can
draw cards. In that case. 81 being the
original ante, if all six should come IN
AMI no raise should be made beyond the
compulsory doubling each time, there
would be 1884 on the table before the
draw.
1t must be remembered, however, that
each player, when 1t comes to be his turn
to bet, may raise If he chooses, though
not less than the amount he is called
upon by the rules to bet If he bets at
all Thus c, when he comes in, must
put UP 81 or drop out. If he desires 10
raise-he may do so, but his raise must be
at least 81 If he does not raise, but
simply comes in, and D wishes to raise.
he must raise not less than S. 1t VIII
be seen, therefore, that in case all the
players make good, each raise made hy
any one of them means that the pot is e.
least doubled. Even if some drop out,
as some would be likely to do unless the
game were played In Bedlam, or some ex-
traordinarX hands had been dealt, the
geometrical progression In the betting
makes important money to be played for,
even If only three or four of the players
stay in.
When the betting begins after the draw,
the same rule obtains as to raise. A
| player may either see the amount put up
by the bettor before him. or he may raise
but if he raise he must raise the full
amount of the bet, or, In other words.

Hon. John 3. Taft, who. has been a
resident of Washington county since
early in the SOS, died early yesterday
morning at the Lake Elmo sanitarium
where he had recently submitted to a
surgical operation. Deceased was seven
ty-five years of age, and had been in
failing health for several years. He Is
survive by a widow. Deceased resided
in the town of Grant and for many years
held a number of offices in that town.
In 1888 he was elected to the legislature
as an Independent candidate, defeating
Fayette Marsh, who had received both
the Republican and Democratic nomina-
tons. The funeral will be held Sunday
afternoon from the family residence and
will be largely attended.
Henry L. Benner VINO has been stew
ard at the prison for many years, re-
signed on Thursday, his resignation to
take effect at once. Although rumOrs
have been in circulation for some time
that Mr.. Benner was about to resign, his
action was a surprise to his friends. The
letter of resignation states that 1t is
done because he desires to enter into q
business more to his liking. Fred Bord-
well, who has been a guard at the prison
for many years, has beeen appointed to
fill the place temporarily, and will hold
1t until Col Reeve returns from the East.
The Rutledge left yesterday with
tow of logs for Rock Island, Ill; the
Vivian left with logs for c. Lamb &
Sons, Clinton, 10; the Eclipse and bow
boat left with logs for Lindsey & Phelps,
Davenport, and the Ten Brock left with
logs for the Empire Lumber company,
Winona
Louis Moffatt, a prominent logger, who
resides at Gordon, Wis, was in the city
yesterday, and Mr.. Moffat states that
the country in that section is excep-
tionally dry. He has been with the Mus
ser-Sauntry Eau Claire lakes drive,
which is now at the mouth of Moose
river, and is of the opinion that it will
not arrive in Saltwater this season un-
less heavy rains occur. Mr.. Moffatt says
that a heavy rain for twenty-four hours
will be the means of bringing in at least
50,G00,OGQ feet of logs in one day.
Judge ]. c. Nethaway leaves this morn
ing for Cobleskill, n. Y, where he will
visit until the grand lodge meeting of
the 8. z. Q. Elks convene at Atlantic
City.
An effort is being made by the COM
mittee having in charge the Fourth of
July celebration in this city TO induce
.. NJ. Swain to postpone the launching
Of his new steamboat until that day,
and prospects are that Mr.. Swain will
consent. Thousands of people who have
never witnessed the launching of a large
steamer will come to Saltwater on that
day to witness the sight.
The funeral of Miss Myrna Westergren
will be held from the First Presbyterian
church this afternoon.

ever, and within three hours the child
died, recovering only sufficiently to pit
eously ask for a drink of water.

and, according to the story told by eye
witnesses, no one is blamed for it. The

shortly before o'clock, taking little
Frank with her. The accident occurred
while she was in the store So quick was
the motolman's work that the car, which
was travelling slow, was brought to a full
stop before the second wheel could touch
the child.

advised its removed to ST Barnabas' hos
pital, where DR.. James H. Dunn and DR..
Chapman performed the necessary oper-
alton.
Mrs. Wilde was crazed with grief ovt,

O'clock and fears were entertained that
she might loose her mind.
