and a bunch of cowboys looking on. The
trick was to find the ace of spades.
One man had bet heavily and turned up
the ten OF hearts, leaving two other
cards lying there. Canada Bill offered
to give him chance to get even by bet
ting him ne could not tell which of the
remaining cards was the ace. The cat
tleman lost that bet also.
Only one card now remained face down
on the layout, and when Canada Bill
1okingly offered to bet his man double
or quits he had not nerve enough to pick
that last card for the ace. OF course
the bet was promptly taken-and lost.
This would seem to demonstrate that
none of the three cards was the spade
ace from the first, so that 1t was I'M
possible to win, no matter which card
you picked.
There are a number of swindles, usual
played with prepared apparatus, when
are sure thing games Persons travelling
in England should be particularly on their
guard against men who offer to match
coins by spinning These sharpers usual
ly work in pairs and are provided with
coins slightly beveled on the edge. so
that when the coin is spun 1t must al
ways fall upon the same face.
If they are spinning for the odd man
to lose the partners use coins that Will
fall with the same face up, so that all
three coins must fall alike or the victim
must be the odd man. When the game
is odd man first out the sharpers use
coins that fall on opposite faces, so that
it is impossible for the victim to be the
odd man.
Some of the cleverest swindling tricks
are based on the principle of making the
victim believe that he has a man beaten
at his own game and is betting on the
sure thing himself The BLACK jack and
ace trick is considered to be the greatest
money maker in this that ever hap
pened.
AS many of those VINO set this traps
are comparatively ignorant men, it some
times happens that there is a flaw in the
scheme, which better educated men will
detect A rather amusing instance of
this kind happened in Atlanta a few
years ago.
A New Yorker, who is well known in
the dry goods district, and is also famous
as whist player, happened to be drawn
into friendly game of euchre at the
hotel, during the course of which the
usual proposition to bet on the five cards
as If they were poker hands cropped up.
The game having been naturally intro
duced in this manner and the dry goods
man allowed to win a bet or two tho
