inside the gaming rooms, maybe, but
that is ones own affair. Entry to the
casino is ones own choice, and the
authorities stand either to lose or win
by it. That they win on the average
is obvious; otherwise they would
scarcely be able to pay Ell, 100000 per
annum in dividends. But, while they
are content to win, they do their best
to protect those who provide the win
nings.
And while protecting the poor
of Monaco, the casino helps those

the cash allotted to each table at the
commencement of play-a 5000 in the

the maximum allowed is G480, dou-
bic that permitted at roulette. If the
player be lucky enough to clean out

Percentage of Profit Small.
While the average gambler loses
his money at Monte Carlo, there are
many who leave winners. He who Is
content with a reasonable percentage

with the wheels or the cards The
percentage taken by the Casino is
small-very small in comparison with
the terrible cagnotte of the baccarat

to risk his money on petits chevaux
