Gambling in Souls

OF all games of chance associated
with gambling as a trade. probably
none has a greater fascination for the
average player than has roulette
which was given to the world by the
ingenuity of the French Its drawing
power has been well demonstrated by
the fact that at Monte Carlo, the
world-famous gambling resort on the
shore of the Mediterranean mot now
in operation), only two games were
played in the palatial casino, and rou-
lette was one of them.
Big fortunes have been won and
lost on the spin of the wheel. Delir-
ious JOY. and black despair were daily
and nightly companions of roulette at
Monte Carlo.
The simplest form OF wheel play in
minor gambling houses is to place the
wager on a certain number as the
stopping place of the needle or on the
selection of black or red as the stop
ping place. Manifestly, where merely
color is chosen the chances appear to
be even-as the stakes should be. But
where a player selects a certain num-
Der. his chances of winning are but
one in IS; wherefore the house must
give heavy odds in the players favor.
1t is here that the chief danger of the
player and the chief security of the
house lie. The great odds are a sore
temptation to a man who in fancy
sees a very substantial sum returned
to him for a small outlay; while the
house can view the situation with
perfect equanimity, since its chance
Of losing more than once in many
trials is very remote
An interesting discovery is the pos
sibility of working an honest wheel
dishonesty. This was shown in Chi
cago. The wheel was operated by a
woman, who cheated the player by a
unique method. Detection of this con-
stitutes a thrilling scene in Gambling
