A Game for SIOO,OOO— Big Winnings
in New York at Faro and Baccarat—
Earn Parsons'Last Game—No Lookin’
Round.
From the Sew York Herald.
Gambling has been a prevalent passion
with all nations and classes, in all ages. In
Greece laws were enacted for it3 suppres
sion. The Goths and Vandals not only
risked fortune, but liberty, on the single
throw of dice. English history proclaims
the Normans, Saxo us and Danes to have
been gamblers, and in Henry Vll.’a reign
the use of cards was prohibited, except at
Christmas holidays. James L left on
record that “when it is foule and storme
weather there may be lawful play at the
cards or tables.” Charles 11. forbid gaming
n all its forms, while Queen Anne de
clared gambling debts void. From those
days until these the gambler has been very
properly under the ban. But as there has
always been gambling there always will be.
Borne men are born gamblers, and if yon
offered odds enough they would bet you
that the sun would not rise on the morrow.
Fifties years ago Bony Nash, a Cincinnati
gambler who was ill of a dropsical affection,
bet on Tuesday that he would die before
Saturday, and won the bet by dying Friday
noon.
MONTANA NO PLACE FOB TENDERFEET.
They play a pretty stiff poker game out
in Butte, Mont., if all stories are to be be
lieved. A winning of SIO,OOO is thought to
be about the proper caper when they are
running your way, and if you go that
amount in tho hole you are expected to look
pleasant when you put on your overshoes.
When the big ones got at it they take down
the skylight, and then it’s smoking hot. One
night a tenderfoot dropped in and asked if
he could come in. “O, ves, if he wanted
to.” There was then $5,000 on the table,
and after tho hand was played the new
comer put aside his fur-lined overcoat
and silk tile and presented a crisp SIOO bill
for chips. Tho banker—they have bankers
in poker games out west—looked surprised.
The players looked at each other and then
at the stranger. “YVell, what’s the matter,
gentlemen ?’’ said the easterner with a bland
smile. “Ain’t lin the game?” There was
a silent moment. “YVhy, of course,” said
the dealer; “here, banker, come up for this
gentleman; ho wants a white chip.” You
couldn’t have kept the traveler in that place
with a lasso. He left town that night on
an eastbound freight train.
TWO HIGH ROLLERS OF THE METROPOLIS.
Mnj. Crump and Charlie Ransom were
two of the best known ali round gamesters
New York ever produced. They were
associated for a quarter of a century at the
Shakespeare Club on YVost Twenty-fifth
street. Tee major laid by a fortune of
$50,000, while Ransom w.3 squeezed by
Wall streets firms who had lost through
clerks. Crump loved the jack-pot, pure
and simple, w hiie Ransom was a clairvoyant
on horses. Ho never lost $20,000 on the
turf, while he won over $250,000 at
Saratoga alone. He could lose $50,000 at
faro and win *IOO,OOO on the turf in one
season. The Shakespeare Club catered to
the swells, while Morrissey, around in
Twenty-fourth street, played the heavy
gamblers’ game. In Morrissey’s, one night,
a party of California miners lost $250,000 at
baccarat, and came next night and won it
all back at faro. Ban Wood won $100,(KJ0
from Morrissey at a single sitting, which
cured John of his propensity for heavy bet
ting at faro. Morrissey died with less than
SIO,OOO after his debts were paid.
THE PETTIBONE-C LEVEL AND FARO DUEL.
The two swell gamblers of New York in
the old days were Pettibone and Cleveland.
The latter was a Philadelphian, while Petti
bone came from Tennessee. They nad a
faro duel one night. They had been part
ners in a game in Philadelphia in 1857 and
quit as enemies. They met at No. 8 Bar
clay street. “I’ll settle with you,” said
Pettibone to Cleveland, who was a tall,
raw-boned, elegant specimen physically,
“in a game for SIOO,OOO at a single
sitting. “Come on!” Cleveland re
plied. Tha green baize was cleared
and the tiger had no com
batants m sigiit but the two middle
aged gamblers. At it they went Petti
bone was a heavy loser in the first five deals,
and began to grow white around the gills.
The next deal he was loser to the tune of
SBO,OOO, for there was no limit The seventh
deal the nervy Tennessean made a call for
$5,000. He won, picking up $25,000, and
by midnight he had won every dollar of
Cleveland’s money. They parted as friends,
and were afterward partners at Hot
Springs, Ark. They soon bought the Blue
Pig, a famous faro cottage at Cape May.
CHARLEY PERKINS KNEW HIS COMPANY.
Among the dead games poker has to be
played fair—or, to bo exact—as fair as poker
is played by those who know all the ins and
outs. That, however, does not entitle the
uninitiated to come in, and if they do they
may pay very expensive tuition. One of
the flyest gamblers Western New York ever
turned out was Charley Perkins. He was
also known to the lovers of the prize ring,
as he always attended man figiits of im
portance. Perkins knew poker by heart,and,
as goes without saying, know his company.
One night ho was playing in a stiff game
at a resort in St. Charles street,New Orleans.
it was simply a question of winning or
walking back to Rochester. As he sat
thumbing his corner the people looking on
notioed that his shirt front was fast becom
ing a sight to behold. He was chewing
tobacco at a fierce rate, and though usually
scrupulou ly neat in his personal appear
ance presented a disgusting spectacle. At
last it became unbearable and one of his
friends said, “For God’s sake, Charley, why
don’t you use tho cuspidor?” “Use nothing,
fool,” was the reply, “this yer hain’t no sort
o’ game to be lookin’ round in.”
NO USE RUCKING AGAINST SANDED CARS.
Out west they play stud poker a great
deal. They might as well play that as the
regular game, for they have changed that
until it is quite different from that known
to eastern sports. They allow the one
sitting at tho left of the dealer to pass and
then back in and raise before the draw, and
have plenty of other innovations. They
also use on occasion what are commonly
known as sanded cards. That is, a pack is
prepared with n piece of sand paper, certain
small marks a; given paces indicating
king, queen, ace, etc. With these cards
tho uoalor, who lias sanded tho deck,
knows exactly what is in his oppo
nent’s hands, and he also knows the top
onrd, which ho can probably “finger" to suit
the occasion. On the Pacific slope they
generally uso "angel back” cards, or paste
boards, beating on thoir backs the picture
of an angel. A few years ago a young
player from Michigan mot Luke Bhort in
Arizona and did him out of $14,000 by sub
stituting on tho table two packs of sanded
cards. And it was in Bhort’s own
gambling house. It is almost imtKesible to
detect sanded cards, except by the play of
the man who has fixed them. He eyes the
deck rather too anxiously and plays with too
reckless au air.
BRACE BOXES AND lIOLD-OUTB.
There are plenty of tricks in oil card
games. Among the most common is the
“braoo box” a, faro; that is a box in which
the slot Is wide enough, when a spring is
touched, to allow two cards at a time to be
pushed through by the dealer. These Lusts
will almost defy detection, o:id a t; od one
*d the nee eat s.ylo is worm S3OO. Atpoki r
the nioit common artificial cheat is tito
"hold cut,” by which any card ca t be
sccrelod boos to defy detection. The “hold
out” 3oi!i-,u of a steel link mid
‘bring device, which terminates in
the sleeve, by a pressure of the
'out a smalt clasp steals out, takes
S' urd.and whu the pressure is iamoved
fiu> spring withdraws back into the sleeve,
Uitui.g tha card with it. The link runs up
toe gauihtertk aria, down bis h-ft aide to tbs
middle of his ieft lag, where it crotwas over
to his right, then down to his foot. One
outfit is made in Cr icago and costs $250.
Bay the first card held out was au ace the
gambler passes, waits his chance, holds out
another ace, discarding four cards each
time instead of five. When he has things
m shape he spri gs four aces, slips four
cards up his sleeve and hauls in the pot.

LOVE ME, LOVE MY DOG.
Fashionable Pets that Live in the Lap
of Luxury.
From the Sew York Herald.
“Ah, darling girl! Beauty! Give me a
kiss, sweetheart!!!”
It was not the starry hoar of evening,
nor the whisper of the lover speaking to
his best girl. It was only broad afternoon,
and the voice of Mrs. Charles Wh?atleigh,
president of the American Fat Dog Club,
addressing one of her dearesTftugs, Turns
Turns.
The darling girl thus wooed rose on her
two stumpy hind legs.put up Lor exquisitely
wrinkled black nose, protruded a tiny speck
of a rose leaf tongue and placed a chaste
salute (lick! I should call it) oa her mistress’
yearning cheek.
A LOVELY MATRON.
Tunia Tunis is a charming young matron
of three springs. She has a diamond thumb
mark on her tiow, and wears a bewitching
tail with a double curl in it. You caa hold
her up and “not see day light through that
tail,” and these signs tell one experioaced in
puggies that Tuma Tama ri a lady with an
cestors, a very Clara Vera da Vere of pug?.
But she hat a more amibla disposition than
that rhymed lady, and takes lifa with the
calm begot of a large appetits and a satis
fied soul. Sue took lirsYprize at the show
in 188$.
Tuma Tuma is only one of many such iu
the American Pet Dog Club, au institution
regularly incorporated under the laws of
the state of New York, and some 2-s years
old. It has between thirty and forty mem
ber:-, mostly female. E ich member has one
or more pet dogs, and eac i dog is the dear
est, sweetest creature you ever saw.
Mrs. Wheatleigh, the wife of the actor, is
the president, and has bean since tne c.ub
was organized; Dr. H. M. Cryerof Philadel
phia is the vice president; Miss Marion E.
Barmister is the secretary, and William J.
Freyer, Jr., is the treasurer.
THE CLUB’S OBJECT.
This is the stated object of the club: To
encoura te the breeding of small or pet dogs
to the highest standard of perfection, to
protect the interests of the members of the
club in the ownership of their dogs, and to
advance a general knowledge of the proper
care and treatment of household or i>et dogs
and thus promote the comfort and welfare
of the dogs themselves.
The annual dues are but $5. Meeting? are
held once a month, generally at Mrs. YVheat
leigh’s house, in East Sixteenth street, aud
now and then the dear little doggie? are
givon a birthday party, or there is a chris
tening or a wedding or a funeral or fete of
some kind, to which all are bidden. It is
then that the sweet little pugs, which pre
ponderate, the King Charles, the tei'riers,
the black and tans, the greyhounds, all meet
and mingle iu social communion and
indulge in much the same backbiting and
gossip and sniffing that one sees and hears
at an afternoon tea of bipeds.
A PUG PARTY.
A little select party was given last week
by Mis3 Koto Wheatleigh, the youngest of
the four VVheatleigu pugs. jAliss Koto, who
is a handsome fawn blonde, made her debut
on the first anniversary of her birthday in
a pale blue ribbon. Mrs. M. E. Baldwin, a
member of the club, brought her two pugs,
Peter and Paul, to call on Miss Koto. Yu
place of the usual bouquet, they each
brought tho debutante a rubber chicken
with a delightful squeak iu her. It is
rumored Dow in pug uppertendom that
Paul is engaged to Koto. Mrs. John
Draper’s handsome pug Leunie, who is the
son of Tuma Tuma,, also present and
wore a boutonniere of Parma violets, with a
do 2 collar of silVAr. Victoria, Mrs.
Whatleigh’s 7-year-old pug. who has had
twenty-live handsome children, was also
present, and acted as chaperon,and Mikado,
the prize pug, was there in anew red
necktie.
Turkey, coffee and ice cream were served
on hassocks, tho mort?'careful owners tying
Japanese napkins alipiit their puggies’ col
lars, and after the collation rose colored
finger bowls, filled with scented water, were
passed around for the pugs’ paws. Mrs.
Wheatleigh has a country place on Long
Island called the “Puggery,” where her
darlings pass the summer.
SPANIEL SWELLS.
Lady Hilary is the came of Mrs. James
R. Franklin’s pet King Charles spaniel, just
two years old, and a “perfect beauty, so
sturdy, so dainty, aud so affectionate,” as
its mistress said, lovingly. I found Mr?.
Franklin almost in tears at the dog show,
because her little dog had onlv taken second
prize. “I got her in St. Martin’s lane,
Loudon, and she has a pedigree as long as a
Tudor’s, and she is perfect in every way,
and yet she only took second prize. But
a great many people here tell me she is su
perior to the dog who took the first prize,
so 1 try to console myself,” she said, be
stowing a passionate kiss on a turned up
nose.
Lady Hilary has hair silky black, and,
like all brunettes, she is partial to yellow.
In fact, she howls if another color is put
near hor. She sleeps in her mistress’ room
in a gilded bed, trimmed iu golden yellow
satin' The pillow is of down, and sue lives
on a flowery diet of violets and American
beauty rose petals, with a Maiilard marron
glace and a bit of roast chicken for dinner.
Yes, she dees actually oat a small buuch of
violets each day. At the dog show 6be re
clined in a cage lined with yellow, and ate
and drank from two solid silver bowls, em
blazoned with her coat of aru-s and her
name.
THE MIDGET.
Nadjy, the smallest dog in the club, is a
pug. She is a year and a half old, aud only
weighs three and a half pounds. She is
owned by Miss Marion Bannister of Cran
ford, N. J. Nadjy can beg aud waltz, and
she wears a little coat of royal ruby velvet,
lined with eiderdown, and eats nothing but
roast chicken, ice cream and oat flakes.
Miss Bannister has four other pugs—Fussy,
Jessie, The Duchess and Noma—an Eng
lish greyhound aud a Bieubeim spaniel, and
they live in pence until u bone, a beau, or a
stray cat gets in among them. Miss Ban

Mrs. Wheatleigh is to have a birthday
party next month for Yuma Yuma.
During Easter week there will lie some
afternoon teas and bone parties given by
members before the doggies part for the
summer.
.TRAVEL FOR CONSUMPTION.
An Instance of the Eeneflclal Effects of
Open-air Life.
From the Popular Science Monthly.
Dr. Henry L. Bawditch has given the
Climatological Association an account of
the treatment which seems to have counter
acted a strong tendency to consumption in
his own family. In 1808 his father, then 85
years old, was undoubtedly threatened with
consumption. On Aug. 29 of that year,
when thus ill, he started from Balem. Mass.,
with a fri°nd as his companion and driver,
m an open one-horse chaise, for a tour
through New England. The trip lasted
thirty days and covered 748 miles.
During that time he passed from the deepest
mental discouragement and physical weak
ness through all stages of feeling up to a
real enjoyment of life. His journey, though
benefiting bitn immensely, probably did
not wholly cure him, but it proved to him
the absolute need he had of regular, dady,
physical, open-air exorcise. Afterward,
under walks of one and a half to two miles,
taken three times daily, all pulmonary
troubles disappeared. He died thirty years
after the journey, from carcinoma of the
stomach, his lungs being normal except
that one presented evidences of aa ancient
cicatrix at its apex.
Ha proscribed for his children the same
regular out-of-door exercise which had
been so beneficial to him. As soon as they
were old enough thoy were required to take
daily morning walks of about a mile and a
half. If at any time they were observed to
be drooping thoy were taken from school
and sent into the country to have farm-life
and out-of-door play to their hearts’ con
tent. In consequence of this early instruc
tion, all his descendants have become
thoroughly impressed with the
advantages of daily walking, of
summer vacations in tha country, and
of camping out, etc., among the mountains.
Dr. Bowditch’s father had married his
cousiD, who, after long invalidism, died of
chronic phthisis in 1834. Certainly a con
sanguineous union of two consumptives
foreboded nothing but evil. Yet, of their
eight children, six are either now alive or
thoy arrived at adult age, married, and
have bad children and grandchildren, but
not a trace of phthisis has appeared iu any
of these niDety-three persons.
Dr. Bowditchsees nothing but the influ
ence of out-of-door life to which this im
munity of bis family from consumption can
be attributed. He has prescribed it, under
proper precautions, in his practice for
years, and saj s, in conclusion: “I have no
objection to drugs, properly chosen, and I
almost always administer them; but if the
choice were given me to stay in tho house
and use medicines, or to live constantly in
the open air without them, I should infi
nitely prefer the latter course in case of my
being threatened with pulmonary consump
tion.”
AT THE COURTS.
