ity of IhoHe I'luploycH were gutli
ered about the faro hiyoul. where
Hie card were being run In a per
functory mutiner to an ucromiiunl-
llielll or.gOBsIp uhd reminiscence.
The Bight of Hen Miller in com
pany with n girl evoked some won
der. Thl.i wonder IncreuBed in
Jmaiiement ' when ..Miller, ordered
Ihe dealer out or hi Bctil;. It bc
ijame opeji-ihouthed when Hie girl
iook no. place, men broke n new
deck or carilB. ileflly Hhuffled them
and Kllliped Iheiu into the box. Al
thin proci ilnre the languid lookout,
who had been comfortably resting
upon hia Bplno, iiiuuried hi lcg.
hoisted lliiiiBCIf into an, attitude of
attention, und icuned forward with
u Blorlled exprCBBlon upon IiIb f.ice.
The gambler.1 crowded closer,
exehunsing cxpeclnnt glances; lien
Allllcr and Morris Hpnt helped
llieuiHelves to clilps nnd liegun io
play. 'I'heBe were (nicer doings;
Ihe euse-liadrened- onlookers pre
pared to. enjoy a mildly entertain
ing treat. Soon grins begnn to up
pi.ir; tlie men murmured, ihey
nudged' one another, they shipped
one another on the buck, for what
they buw mdonisheii nnd delighted
thorn. Tho girl deult swiftly, sure,
ly: she handled the pnrnpliernulla
poise, a rertuin reserve und femi
nine dignity which were totully in
congruous.
When, during u pans, she ub-aenl-iulniledly
shuffled a Btuck of
rhlpB, Hie Mochu Kid permitted Ilia
feelings lo get the better of him.
"Hang me for a horse-thief!" he
nickered. "Will you look ut that?"
Now the Mocha Kid was a ribald
character, profanity wua u part of
him. und . blasphemy embellished
ills euHuu! Hpcech. The mlldnesa
of his exeliiiiiutlun allowed that lie
w.ia deeply finovet', Jic continued
In the Hume admiring undertone:
't Been u dame once Hint could
deal u hunk, hut she couldn't pay
and take. This gal cun slue up u
stuck wlih her eyes shut!"
Nothing could have more deeply
intrigued ' the attention of these
men than the night of u. modest,
unlet, well-behaved young wouiuil
exhibiting all the technic of a fin
ished furo-deuler. Jt was contrary
lo their cNiperli nro, to their ideas
of Illness. Mastery of tlie gaming
table rciiulrrs yearn of practice lo
ucMUire, and not one of these pro
fessionals liul wis as proud of Jils
