MAKE BALLOON INTO CANOES
Hudson Bay Indians Get Wonderful
Craft from Wreck of Giant
Arship.

Cochrane, Ont.-Some wonderful ca
noes appeared mysteriously recently In
the james Bay region. They were con-
structed not of birchbark, but of u
strange material the North had never
seen.
The big balloon that carried three
United States naval aviators into the
wilderness several months ago has
since lain where it descended. Officials
of Moose Factory. one of the earliest
posts established on American shores
by the Hudson's Bay company, had
given orders to all the Indians who
owe allegiance to the ancient fur COM
pany, to leave the great gas bag un-
disturbed. These orders had been
strictly observed, but band of out
law Indians, whose home village Is
sixty miles northwest of Moose Fac
tory. found the balloon and from the
sides of the fallen monster mnde

THIS BIRD HAD REAL TEETH
Lived rs Million Years Ago and
chewed Its Food, Says Museum
Curator.

Lawrence, Kan.-One of the two
known specimens of birds TEEN
was found in the chalk beds OF west
ern Kansas and has been preserved
at the University of Kansas museum,
according to Curator Fl. I. Martin,
who found the specimen.
The other is at the Yale university
museum. The Kansas fossil is OF the
cretaceous period, about twenty-five
million years ago and includes ten
teeth.
1t is the most complete specimen
that has been preserved. The bird
was of the Hesperornis family, was
five feet long, had short vertebrae
tail and possessed no wings. 1t was
a marine bird.
The specimen is more valuable than
any other, according to Professor Mar
tin, because it gives clear idea OF
the semi-plumaceous feathery cover
ing that the bird possessed. No 9TH
err known specimen gives this evil
dence.

Spinner's Size
Regulates Bets

chance in 81 against the bettor. the
odds are 10 to Is in favor of the house.
With absolutely even luck, in every 81
bets you will lose one more than you
will win. The odds are all calculated
on the basis of the thirty-six numbers
on the table, and the thirty-seventh
number (zero) is the perquisite or the
establishment. With this qualification
the game is absolutely fair.
Few sane men, l think, suspect the
Casino of cheating. 1t does not neeo
to. That thirty-seventh chance-whlch
Is no chance, but a certainty-is sur
ficient. 1t operates inevitably; as re-
morselessly as 1.-The blind Fury with
the abhorred shears" does at the end
of the life of each of US.
The tables in the various sales IN
the Casino and the Sporting CLUB 90
not all run for the same hours. Also
some of them are for trente ct quar-
ante and not for roulette. But l be-
lieve it is fair to say that the result
Is about equivalent to twenty-one
tables at roulette running for ten
hours a day. At all events the rough
calculation will suffice.
How It Figures Out.
Now, the time taken by each turn OF
the wheel, with the necessary settle
ments, is about three minutes; or II
has been when have timed it in these
last days. That is to say that on one
or other of the q tables seven coups
are being cleaned up every minute.
The house wins one bet in every " ;
and IL is, again, not unfair to reckon
that same number-37-as the aver
age number of bets on every table
taking the two ends together. There
may be only 10 or 200. But 81 Is not
an unjust average. Therefore, II
seven tables clear up each minute, in
each minute the house is seven bets
to the good.
The average unit staked Is impossi-
BILE to guess. The bets range all the
way from the humble Of. white counter
to (rarely) the permitted limit of six
plaques of 1,000f. each. But whatever
the average unit is, the Casino wins
it seven times over every minute, or
400 times every hour, or 1900 times
each day.
So far as the individual Is con-
cerned that 37th chance-the pesky
zero-may not operate to his disadvan-
tage in long sitting, and if luck Is
with him he will win. Or 1t may
operate so actively as to ruin him in
half an hour. But regarding the pub
lie as a single bettor, that bettor is
roughly losing regularly to the tables
1920 units (subject to more accurate
calculation) every day in the year.
1t has to be so. The Casino, with
