1he lads truthful testimony at the
trial which followed so enraged his
uncle that Red no longer found a
home with him. Cast on his own re-
sources. he was attracted by the gilt
tering promises of an expert poker
and faro dealer whom his uncle had
employed. He Joined with him in sew
eral trips on cOasting steamers, "sit-
ting In" with the gambler in poker
games with the passengers and ex
changing signals with him concerning
the cards they held He learned the
art Of denting the corners of the aces
kings, queens and jacks with his
thumb nails so that in dealing with
fingers sandpapered or worn almost to
the bleeding point with pumice stone
he could deta v these indentations and
know when and to whom he was deal
ing the high cards. From this 1t was
only a step to partnership with the
great Jimmy Valentine. the man who
could "cop a gopher" without any ar
tificial aids.
All this was well known to valen-
tine. He himself had drifted into bad
company in a manner somewhat SINH
lar He could see in the lessons Of
his own experiences that Reds mis-
deeds were not entirely blamable on
Red
He was about to inform Red of his
intention to aid him In new career
when he heard in the corridor the
voice of Rose Lane addressing some
