So being involved in a pot, but the

Ii Lung? He's the biggest and best
gambler in Chinatown. He runs half
dozen card shops in different parts of

did you hear how Boston fixed the
politicians?" asked Chinese. One of
the players had not, so he continued:
THE other night Tim Sullivan, who
runs place on the Bowery, sent word
to Ii Lung that some of his friends
wanted little game that night. There
was judge from Brooklyn and two or
three political people who are all well
known. They thought they had an
easy thing in the Chinese, and he knew
that he had a regular snap in them.
The game started up in 'BOston's' place,

got hungry for a chop suey and came
down here to finish the game. Lung
had been winning all night from the
judge and from Sullivan. He plays
straight poker and they were trying to
bluff The end came when Lung got
four kings. Sullivan had good hand
md went the limit The kings were
good and Lung drew out $50. That

The Chinese laundrymen who have
laces of business in different parts Of
he city would like to see the police
stop gambling in Chinatown. They
say that they cannot get Chinese to do
their work, because there are so many
games running. The poor Chinese
gambler can live on pound of rice a
day, and it costs him only seven cents,
consequently it takes long streak Of
bad luck to send him to work. When
he does go to work it is only for a week
at most. BY that time he has saved
another stake and goes back to
Chinatown to again try his luck.-New
