Not force the gambling rooms at Monte Carlo by’ night would be to miss the grand show of the place. There are not people enough in the town to make £ the crowds that press through the corridor and the atrium in the even ing. They come in trains from all the neighboring places—from Cannes, Nice, Ban Remo, Mentone, -Timatimna from as far as Genoa. People ride down from Paris, 30 hours in the rapide, just for a little “shy” at tbs tables. AH outside is as bright as day, though chilly. When I set out for the casino, I came upon a young English couple standing near the big fountain, discussing some thing with great earnestness. They were good looking, well dressed, with something of an air of a bridal couple. What became of them at the moment I did not notice, and inside I stood for a few minutes watching tho roulette ta bles. Ten minutes later I went into the trente et qusrante room and met them 1 just inside the big arched doorway. They wore on their way out. Her rosy , cheeks were rosier than before, and her face was wreathed in smiles. He was fairly radiant and looked “very fit, ” as the Londoners say. In one hand he held u great bundle of French notes, all stretched out at full length, justaa they came from the tables. It took no great shrewdness to see that for ten minutes they had been leading active, industri ous lives and had reaped the reward of industry and virtue and Were getting out of the place before they were tempt ed to try again and lose. One elderly gentleman was at the moment doing the leading busineasin that room and attracting the most at tention by risking ten 1,000 franc notes (13,000) at every dealing of the cards. He was particularly interesting tome, because he was beyond doubt an Ameri san. He was a fine looking man, with 1 gray hair, iron gray beard, well trim med. a shrewd eye that watched every move tho dealer made, and of course in the regulation black evening clothes. His face showed him to be a man who had made his money, not Inherited it I think that lumber was the foundation of hie fortune in the northwest some where, but long enough ago to give him time to have the sawdust brushed out of his clothes, for he was very smooth and well groomed. Not a word was said around the table, so there was no chance to hear what language he spoke. He was cue of those men who would not look at all out of place leading a prayer meeting, but who might be de pended upon for a ready revolver if he caught the dealer at any foul play. The notes came out of one of his vest pockets, but not carelessly. There was none of the usual effort to look aa if risking $2,000 every three minutes was an everyday affair with him. He did everything with caution, always delib erating over what square he should lay his money upon, and sometimes chang ' ing it to some other square after he had laid it dawn. But whether he won or lost he showed no emotion whatever. He won oftener than he lost while I watched him, putting the winnings al ways into the same vest pocket At one time the banker made a mistake in du plicating a jdleof his notesthat had won, but thia did not bring a word from him. His eyes were open, and instead of picking up the pile he merely pushed it back toward the banker, which waa a sufficient hint for a recount When the mistake was corrected and the miss ing note supplied, he added the pile to the big lump in his pocket Like almost every player around the trente et quarante tables, he was there strictly for business. It was not a few dollars laid on for the novelty of the thing, but a deliberate speculation in the hope of winning. My experience of gambling houses is fortunately rather limited, but I have men the big places of Saratoga and Long Branch and one or two in New York and some very large ones in Cuba and Mexico. Never have I seen such a businesslike air in any gambling room as there is here. You may not be wicked enough to know that generally a great deal of smoking and drinking and some eating go with fashionable gambling, but that Is the case. The sideboard is almost as neces sary aa the tables, and George and Sam bo and Henry are kept busy carrying champagne and cooktails to the thirsty I players. Thia is pure business with “the house, ” even where these things are not charged for, for does not a man become the more reckless the more al cohol he absorbs? But there is none of that here. There is no smoking in the rooms, and no drinks are served at the tables. As far aa I have seen, there is no place in the casino building where drinks can be had, though possibly there may be some coxy corners that I have not discovered. It is as much a business house as a wholesale dry goods store, and the profits are larger for the firm. This gives it a very cold blooded atmosphere, for there is not a particle of interest in either of the games outride of the finan cial risks involved. They are stupid games of doctored chance that a navvy can play as well aa an arithmetician.— New York Times. IMylema&ie.
