THE GAMBLING MANIA.
HOW 1t Flaunted Itself at One Time
In the French Capital.

how IL Flaunted Itself at One Time
In the French Capital.
Some of the old stories told Of the
gaming tables can hardly be believed
nowadays. though they are related in
such a cool. matter of fact style by
writers of the time as to show that in
the eighteenth and early nineteenth
centuries the practice formed a part
of high class social existence. Captain
GrOnOw relates that having been ap-
pointed to the staff Of General PictOn,
who was then starting for Brussels
0S15). he obtained $1,000 from the ar
my agents, which," he continues, II
took with me to a gambling house in
St James square, where l managed,
by some wonderful accident, to win
1900" With this sum he subsequently
provided his necessary outfit
When the allies marched into Paris
after the battle of Waterloo, GrOnOw
found the Palais Royal a hOtbed of
gambling-"the very heart of French
dissipation" There were tables for
all classes. The workman might play
with 20 SOUS or the gentleman with
10000 francs. The law did not prevent
any class from indulging in vice that
assisted to fill the Golfers Of the munich
pality Of Paris" The English visitors
were not slow to participate in the
play, one officer Of the guards obtaining
leave of absence and never quitting the
Palais Royal till the time came for his
return to the regiment
Large fortunes were often lost at
gambling in those days, the losers dis
appearing never more to be heard Of.
Lord Thanet. for instance, who had an
income OF $25O,OOO a year. lost every
farthing at play and, concludes Gro
now, Il do not remember any instance
where those who spent their time in
this den did not lose all they possess

ing'one of the largest and best in
the state and it would seem that there
is room in Smyrna for a large
basket and crate mill which would
give employment to many men and
boys. 1t has been suggested that
such a mill could be made to pay if
it were located at Smyrna Landing
near the Steamer Brady wharves,
the terminus of a large fruit ship
ping district. Such an industry
would be possible if our growers
and citizens would take ahOld of it.
The water facilities would add
much to the getting of lumber and
other materials and located as it
would be, convenient to the grow
ers, there is every reason to believe
that basket mill could be made a
profitable enterprise andi one that
would mean much to the people of
this town and vicinity. Let Smy-
rna have industries and plenty of
them.

THE announcement that Tucker

couragement to those recentlv

dustry can give employment to as
many women and girls as may ap-
ply and with this opportunity
thrown opon to the residents OF
Smyrna there is no reason why
this industry should not grow to
large proportions. Now let us
have basket mill in operation,
something for the men. Smyrna

To the average man, there are
few things more enticing than
politics and during the excitement
of a campaign many are lead on by
greed for gain or political prestige
with the result that their business
suffers and their exchequer is de
pleted. Now days, the man who
runs for Office is expected to put
up" a considerable pile for cam
paign purposes and he must run
the risk of being elected and gain
ing it back or being defeated and
losing it all. There are others bet
ter fixed in life who are into
politics for the enjoyment they get
out of it. The Baltimore Herald
says: "Mr William H. Jackson,
Maryland Congressman, is reported
to have said to an inquirer in
Washington" do not depend up
on politics for a living. With me
it is a luxury. Understanding as
he does the conditions on the Eas-
tern Shore, where the sinews of
war are said to pay as important a
part i'll elections as oysters, crabs,
or fish, Mr.. Jackson may have been
talking in fun, grim and expensive
sort OF. fun, when he referred to his
luxury in winning a fight in that
section. However, if he likes the
fun, and doubtless he does, for he
has been engaged in it for some
time, and being "well fixed" as
they say, he can enjoy it as much
as he likes.
"There is such a thing as en-
joying politics, although it may be
expensive, when an Office is not
necessary as the means for provid-
ing living. Senator Thomas c.
Platt has declared that he gets
great enjoyment out of it. As a
diversion from business cares, he
says it operates as a fine tonic.
Such men as Mr.. Jackson and Mr..
Platt are the fortunates in politics,
and they should be full of fun and
be ready to make humorous
speeches every night during the
campaign. The terrors felt by the
impecunious candidate who has
mortgaged all his prospective salary
for years to carry on the fight and
IS in mortal dread of losing it are
unknown to the man who cannot
be unnerved by any thought of loss
of cash.
"The men IN politics for fun are
usually generous, as the weaker
candidates can testify. They are
real benefactors to the party when
districts and wards are known to
NRe close. They positively enjoy
helping men out of difficulties, and
they would be sadly missed if they
abandoned politics. Ifhumor, fun
and even luxury-not counting the
cost-can be extracted out of
politics, the thing cannot be wholly
bad. "
