Il see by the papers," said a local
sportinls man who formerly lived in
the Vest, that an old and one time
noted gambler, known as Count

whose title was given him as a joke,
and, being willing at all times to stake
everything he had on single turn,
his history was a long succession Of
astonishing ups and downs.
lone of his most picturesque adven-
lures in that connection occurred at
Leadville in rs or 70, when the great
silver boom was at it's zenith. The
Count was just then in one of his tenn
porary periods os financial depression
and had walked into camp in the wake
of a small army of other adventures
with a lone half-do<llar in his trousers
pocket. A little while after his arrival
he strolled into a big saloon on the
main street and noticed the proprietor
lounging at the bar, playing idly with
a dice box. "I'll throw you once for

his solitary coin. All right, stranger,

the dice. He lost, and in ten minutes

over, and the count was leaning against
the bar, alone, at the same place they
had left him. The other man was watt

losses. kept raising the stakes until

changed hands. The last Nbet included
the fixtures and license, and when he
won the Count promptly took possession
and hired the late proprietor as head
bartender. The affair made a lot of
talk, even in those wild and woolly
days; but to the best of my recollec-
ton the Counts ownership lasted only
| about a week. He had a streak of bad
luck at cards and the place slipped out
of his fingers almost as easily as it
slipped into them"

YOUNG FOOL WITH MONEY.
Robbed Express Company and Had a
High Time.

San Francisco, Oct. 12.-Bert Waite, IL
years old. who was arrested at Upper
Lake on Wednesday, charged with for
gerry by the First National bank OF
Berkeley, has confessed to having rob-
bed the United States Express company,
at Ravenna, Iowa. Early in August last,
Waite, who was acting as agent OF the
express company at Ravenna absconded
with over $4,000 in money and bank notes.
Three days before his departure he with
held every package of value in his office.
The money he took west and he has since
been the prey of sharpers. Besides $4,000
in cash, Waite took with him a package
of 81, coo five dollar currency notes of the
Second National Bank of Ravenna, con-
signed to that institution by the treas
ury department at Washington. The
bills were in sheets and lacked the sigma
lures of the president and cashier OF the
bank. He also took a money order book
Of the express company upon which he
has since raised 5000 by forgeries. He ar
rived on September 14th, and Immediate
ly began a career of dissipation. AS his
funds decreased he procured position
in Berkeley and became hale fellow
we'll met with the university students.
His capital was finally exhausted and he
negotiated a money order on the book OF
the express company, which led to his de-
lection and arrest
