One Place, Anyhow.
n the Bohemian Magazine.

From the Bohemian Magazine.
 Two men from New York awoke ono morning to find themselves in Savannah. Remembering that they were in 6 prohi- bition state, and having thirst worthy of their surroundings. the pair started out on 6 stf1l hunt for an eye-opener.
 They were not acquainted and were in a quandary as to where to start on their quest and while they were debating the question mentally between them they were approached by pleasant looking po- liceman, who wished them '>Good-morn- ing"
 Say, Jirp," said one of the pilgrims to the other. ''this is an opening. Herss a good fellow; let's ask him."
 It was agreed. and the officer answered their inquiry by saying. laconicany;
 Follow me-"
 He walked them three blocks, until they stood in front of the cathedral Here he paused.
 The travellers looked at each other in astonishment.
 Surely, my good man." said the first, '.you do not mean to tell us that a blind tiger is being operated in churchr'
 You see the church, do your asked the policeman solemnly.

of acts of violence in comparison with other towns of equal size.
 If anybody wants to see Reno at its best or worst he had better step lively, for the prospects are that the present condition will not last long. Just now there Is nothing to hinder you from going as far as you like. The man with money to pay the freight can do as his fancy pleases. if he stops short of murder, and even that might be arranged to suit his fancy Monte Carlo may be more ele- gant than Reno. but it has nothing more on this Nevada metropolis. There the men in Reno who have the Prince of Monaco skinned both ways from the jack, and if they could be assured Of perform ance in the present attitude of state and city toward gambling they would build here the most magnificent temples Of chance in the world But they know rom experience that there will be a revulsion of feeling in Reno, that some tragedy. some overt act or some abuse of license will turn the town upside down in night. and that some of the gentlemen, now leading citizens and most powerful and honored in this curious community, may be hotfooting it to get away from members of vigilance committee
 It is said that in the last year Reno has used on an average $500 packs of cards Q month, or a total or llAsUOO TOT tno yoaI. The gambling paraphernalia in the city Is estimated to have cost between $1bo,Oeo and sl6O,000, which goes to show that the stuff in use is of cheap character. There are no figures obtainable as to the amount of liquor consumed daily, but most gen. tlemen in this part of the country drink red-eye, and they are not ashamed of the fact Beer is the drink of the callow, undeveioped man, and champagne the drink of the foolish persons, but the man who wants to get his blood stirred drinks red liquor. And the red liquor they sell in Reno would stir anything or anybody, from a rutabaga turnip to the mummy of one of the Ptolenys.
 The city, as first move toward the suppression Of the vice, had a referendum upon the question of shifting the gam blers out Of town. It was defeated by 7bO votes in a poll of nearly 5000. The issue was fought by the gamblers in a charac- tertstic method. A few days before the vote was taken they closed their saloons, left their electric lights unit, si1enced their bands, of which there are scores playing all night long, and shrouded their bars It was ns if the end of the world had come in Reno. Business practically stopped. Silence fell over the cfty, and men talked in whispers oppressed with the peace that spelled desciation. With their victory at the polls began q satur- nalia which was only an exaggerated condition of life in Reno but which was regarded as necessary and appropriate to celebrate so great triumph.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-12-20

Reno likes 1t. Most of the gambling games of the town are crooked, but in this respect they are no different from those of New York, Denver, Chicago, Kansas City or San Francisco. Really, the Reno gambling house keeper should have a larger margin of profit or safety than the gambler in New York, for he eaters to rougher element and takes bigger risk. not as to money but as to trouble. Fueds, personal encounters and gun fights are certain in any community where you have men in the raw and where they turn the Ten Commandments to the wall.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-12-20

Reno shut down on the women players long ago. It was not from any moral or ethical qualmss however, but from the cold business side that Reno acted. An eastern woman, sojourning here for the pleasant purpose of obtaining divorce from a gentleman she no longer loved, sought relaxation at the gambling table. She blew in her alimony, her hotel &C., count, her bank balance, the money she raised by pawning her jewels and her fine clothes, and then she did the spectacular thing by getting up from the faro table when she was flat broke and taking a dose of laudanum. She recovered, but tho Reno gamblers declared that if any ladies desired to get into the game for which St. Peter Is the lookout, they didn't want to act as cappers or steerers Since that time women have been permitted to visit but not to play In Reno's houses
 Estimates of Reno's floating population very from 1250 to 25O0. With every vis- itor gambling, the volume of money this floating population brings to town Is large, but the fact Is that the gambling busi- ness Is overcrowded and not more than 5G0 of the houses are making good money. Proprietors of such resorts as are just dragging along hope for something to turn up-a great mining strike, for exam ple-to set the country mad with the gold fever once more, but unless Rawhide shows even better than is predicted, or another Comstock lode Is developed near here, Reno Is going to lose some of it's gambling glory simply because there isn't patronage enough to keep all the games goin. The thing is so overdone that now it is a case of dog eat dog. Tn such a sit uation 1t is no wonder that there is an in- crease in crime. large as is the percentage
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-12-20

Studpoker is the principal game played, and if there are any gentlemen in the East who think they are wise with the cards they will be welcomed to the open games of this fair city. Faro is not the commoners game, and neither is rou- lette, but there probably are more faro and roulette layouts in this town of 15,o0O than in all New York. with is 100000 or more people Klondylce. craps and that relic of old days-keno--also flourish, keno being played in half a dozen or more resorts. It was introduced by one of Bob Pates understudies and gets a fair amount of patronage.
 One thing, and only one thing, Reno draws the line at, and that is gambling by women. In Butte, Mont, young mining king of Montana and New York, who gave Rogers, Rockefeller and other Amalgamated and Standard oil gentle mena lot of trouble. but later got most beautifully trimmed when he tied up with Morse, Barney and others, set the fashion in gambling circles a few years ago by taking a party of actresses to a gambling house, stalking them to 5000 apiece and telling them to go as far as they liked in the pursuit of pleasure and fortune As a result of the affair gam bling house keepers in most of the mining towns lifted the ban against play by wo- men if the women were tourists or sight seers and were introduced properly. What did it signify if the woman lost S1o $20 or $50, if she could relate, when she returned east, how she played roulette or faro or craps in a gambling hell in mining town, where the layouts were on one side of the room and the bar on the other, and where everybody carried at least one gun; where the game was always open, and where the only difference between night and day was in artificial light instead of natural; where the miner who worked at day labor with pick and shovel played side by side with the man rated as mil lionaire, and where nobody was Nils ter" but everybody was plain "Bill," or such?
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-12-20

To the credit of the respectable people who live in Reno 1t should be said that they do not condone present conditions, but they have agitated for clean town, and are fighting to get it.
 It would not be possible for Reno to support as many saloons. gambling houses and vicious resorts but for the large floating population 1t attracts. As the widest-open town in the world 1t has a great fascination for many persons. To the miner 1t Is the first place he thinks of when he makes a strike ut Rawhide, Ely, Goldfeld, Death Valley Bullfrog, Ploche or Tonopah. Each of these mining camps has it's saloons and it's gambling houses, but they do not compare favorably with those of Reno You can get action for all the money you have to bet, and the more you crack down on the wheel or the card the better
