SCENE ON AN OMAHA SLEEPER
Card Sharks, Who Thought They
Had u Lamb, Are Forced
to Restore.

Duluth, Mimi, April 4.-"Give UP that
money or l will kill all three of you
scoundrels.''
This demand was made by George
Bracket, Il western mining man, in one
of the sleeping cars on the Omaha limited
train from Chicago, a short distance this
side of Eau Claire. The passengers were
alarmed at the prospect Of possible blood
shed, for the demand was backed up by
revolver Of great size in one hand and a
huge bowie knife in the other.
Must be Chinn," muttered one Of the
men addressed in an attempt to be loquo-
cious, but his hand trembled as he hur-
rledly shelled out two So bills.
The passengers arriving from Chicago
on the Omaha limited tell a story of
thrilling interest. Many in the Duluth
sleeper were still up when the train ar
rived at Eau Claire. Three men who
looked like everyday business men got
aboard the train there. Conductor E. B.
Ryan recognized two Of them as profess
sional card sharps from Chicago, but he
did not know the third man. He kept an
eye on them for developments, and when
they approached Mr.. Bracket with a re-
quest that he join them in a game OF
whist he warned them they must not play
for money. Pretty soon the sharpers be-
gan to draw poker hands, of course. Mr.
Bracket began to get good poker hands
at the same time.
I've got hand here that would win a
cattle ranch" said one Of the sharpers.
Mine amt so bad, either" said Brack-
EFT, unsuspiciously.
The result of the exchange Of comments
on the respective hands led to a wager OF
SIS a side Bracket held four jacks anC
the sharper held four queens. The play
proceeded, and soon there was more tall
about poker hands. Bracket had beer
dealt good poker hand, and he fell into
the net second time. But he observed
what he thought was crooked move by
one of the other men, and when he los
he was convinced he was being swindled
Brackets face was black with passion
He realized that he had played the role
