FINDLAY WARREN Is an eminent scientist whose pen is familiar with the stress ol controversy. He has vanquish ed learned men In his time, and surely he must be held more than a match fot such an 111 taught person as "Honest Dan" Farley, the gambler. They met on a railroad train. Dr. Warren was traveling from Buffalo to New York In company with his neph ew, Harold Archer, a young man of large means and reckless disposition, with a genius for scraping acquaint ance with impossible people, whom lie. was glad to Introduce as his friends. This peculiarity was known to Dr. Warren, and he feared It. Yet when Archer In a compartment of the smok ing car' Introduced "Honest Dan" Far ley the learned doctor was Interested In spite of himself. Here was a genu ine celebrity, a really eminent rascal. "Above all other qualities," said Ar cher, "my uncle admires honesty." ' "Moreover," added Dr. Warren po litely, "this is the first time that I have had the opportunity of meeting an hon est gambler." "Now, I wonder Just what you mean by au honest gambler?" said Farley. "One who takes even chances wltb his opponent," replied the professor promptly. "Honest Dan" slowly shook his head "There's no such thing as even chances," said he. "Chance is what you don't know. If you knew every thing there wouldn't be any chance for you. W7hat you bet on In any game is that you know more than the other fellow. If It turns out that he knows more than you do you have no kick coming that I can see." "In an honest game," retorted War ren, "neither party knows anything, Let me Illustrate my meaning with a pack of cards." . "Certainly," said "Honest Dan," tak ing the professor's words literally. He drew a pack from his pocket and laid them face downward upon a small ta- j ble that extended a little way from the wall between the two divans which furnished seating accommodation In the compartment. Then he spread out the cards with his hand and finally covered them with a newspaper. "Now," said Farley, "I'll shut my eyes, and you reach under that paper and draw out a card. Look at it and put It Into your pocket." The professor took a brief time for consideration, and It . seamed . to him that nothing more fair could be imag ined. He stirred the cards well be fore he drew, and he concealed even the back of the one which he selected not only from Farley, but from all pos-1 slble observation except his own, and, having put it into his vest pocket, he tightly buttoned hia sack.coat. 1 ' "Now," snjd "Honest Dan," still with closed eyes and his Jiands behind hli "TELL MB THE COLOR OF THAT CABD. head,1. "tell me the color of that card and I'll tell you the suit. That's a per- j fectly even bet, Isn't it?" ! "It is," said the doctor, considerably excited. "What's the color?" asked Farley. "Black," answered the doctor. Farley opened his eyes, and they were blank as an owl's In the daytime when he turned them upon Warren. "Spade," said he slowly. "You are right," responded Warren, with chagrin. "But we have proved nothing. How can this successful guess bear upon our argument?" "Because I knew that It was a spade," said Farley, "and you didn't know that I knew It That's what we were betting on. Now wait," he added, raising his band. "Tell me whether the card Is above or below a seven spot and I'll guess the denomination." Warren was perplexed. He knew that the draw bad been perfectly fair. It was impossible that Farley should know what the card was. He bad made a clever guess, and now be was making a beautiful bluff. "Hold on," Farley continued; "you needn't tell me anything. The card Is a ten spot" Harold Archer burst Into uncon trollable laughter as his uncle drew forth the card and threw It upon the table. Farley brained the newspaper to thi floor and turned all the cards face up ward on the table. Dr. Warren be held, to his unspeakable amazement, 1 pack composed entirely of ten spots of spades, fifty-two Of them, with thl same backs. That's the way of chance, speaking philosophically," said "Honest Dan.' "It looks mighty various while you'r coming up to It, but there's really only one thing In the pack, the thing that'i going to happen." "You are a fatalist, I perceive," sali the doctor. "All gamblers are, as 1 have been told." "No, sir," responded "Honest Dan," with emphasis. "No gambler who hat any sense is a fatalist. I've discussed that subject with college graduates and all sorts of people. The gambler be lieves that the pack is always fixed Whether he fixes it himself, as I did In this case, or some other fellow puU it up or the thing Is merely left to cir cumstances doesn't matter In the ldast Every pack Is always cold. The top card has to be the top card. It can'l stand anywhere else. It doesn't have any choice. It's , the player that baa the choice. The trquble with your fa talist Is that he doesn't know the dif ference between the pnek and the play er." ; . ' "1 didn't have much choice with youi pack," said Warren grimly "Didn't you?" retorted "Honest Dan" as he gathered the cards with a prac ticed hand and turned them face down ward. "Draw another one." "Thank you. I don't care to," said the doctor, with his bands In his pock ets.. ' "That's all the choice anybody needs," responded Farley, sinking back comfortably Into a corner of the divan, "You hod It In the first place. The fa talist saysyou lacked freedom. I say you lacked wisdom. If It had been me," he added, carefully striking a match on the side of the box, "I'd have turned over a few of those cards right at th start, Just to see what they looked like. You'll do It another time. Speak ing philosophically again, this shows how a man grows; how he gets wiser and better." Dr. Warren wag not conscious of any V.tto tt mi sHvear, which proved that, upon whole, he was growing worse. the "Honest Dan" bowed, with a wave of the hand. "I think I'll have a bite of dinner," said he, rising. "Will you gentlemen Join me?" Archer promptly accepted the lnvlta tlon, but Dr. Warren declined It and remained where he was, absorbed in bitter and resentful meditation. He was angry with Farley for his success ful trickery and with himself much more for being so easily deceived. A vast intellectual gulf yawned between him and "Honest Dan," and from the high side of this abyss he looked down upon the gambler and 'despised him Surely he should be Farley's superior at any game, honest, or dishonest The fact was demonstrable to him, and he yearned to prove it to Farley. In plain terms, he wanted to "get square." While he was thus unpleasantly en gaged two men entered the compart ment. One of them was a heavy shoul dered, dark visaged fellow dressed all In black. He sat down In a corner and Seemed to sink jnto a doze almost im mediately. The other man Was tall, pale and careworn. His forehead was deeply wrinkled for one so young, and there were dark circles under his eyes. He took a seat opposite Dr. Warren and wrote a telegram, and the learned professor, who, was In a sort of trance, read every word of ' it without the slightest Intention of doing so. Doubly chagrined, he sat biting -an ilulig"hte) clgiu until Farley and Archer returned. The other two men had left the com- 1 partnient while the train stopped at Albany, but presently the fellow In black came back aud resumed' his iu terrupted nap. . "Mr, Farley," said the professor aft er a long SllenCe, !'U the destinies of : Inanimate things are fixed while the acts of men are-undetermined it would seem to me that you ought to bet upon a man and not upon a card," ; "I aiways do," responded Farley. "A card can't deal itself, and it's all in the deal. However, among gentlemen'V- He paused, and the professor winced slightly. "What were you going to suggest V . "Would It not be possible to elimi nate the card altogether?" urged War ren. "For instance, suppose we make a bet upon the action of one of our fel low passengers, a stranger to us all Bhnll we not secure a perfectly fair appeal to chance?" "We'd be more likely to secure a put tip Job, I should say," responded Far ley. "However, as I remarked before.J among gentlemen" "Take that man there," said Warren In a low tone as he pointed to the tall, pale stranger who was visible through the door of the compartment. "Will he go north, south, east or west when we rench New York? Where will he be half an hour after we arrive?" "Honest Dan" rolled his cigar round and round between bis lips, while he closed bis left eye very tightly. "I'd be Inclined to come Into that," aid he at last The professor's palms were sweating profusely. "Suppose," said be, "that we should choose the man outside. He Is un known to us all, I suppose." "Bully 1" cried Harold Archer. "I'll bet the limit We can follow him In a cab. Say, this is out of sight.'' "Where'll he be half an hour after we get in, eh?" said "Honest Dan." "All right Let's call the ante 20." The man In the black suit slowly opened bis eyes and straightened his back. "Gentlemen," said he, "if I'm not in truding" "Not In the least as far as I'm con cerned," sold "Honest Dan." "The more the merrier.'' "It's all right," said 'Archer. "Make 'your play, uncle." . t , j Dr. Warren appeared to consider. In reality the words of the message he ; had rend were rinnptnir thrnncrh Mi brain: 1 John Llngard, Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York: Tell brother I will come straight down there from the train. CLARENCE. It would not do to name the hotel; that would disclose a too accurate In formation, "Let us say Twenty-third street," said he, "the corner of Twenty-third street and Fifth avenue." There spoke the Inexpert and over Impatient bettor. "Honest Dan" Farley smiled. "Well, Mr. Archer," said he, "what do you say?" "Axcher drew his knees nearly un to his chin and pondered deeply. "I name the Fifth Avenue hotel," s&id he, suddenly letting his knees fall and slapping one of them hard as it went ' down. The professor stared at his nephew in amazement, and Farley laughed outright. Checking himself immediately, however, he turned to the man In black. "After you," said that gentleman po litely. - . . "It Is immaterial," responded "Honest Dan." "I shall name the corner of Twen-. "I'M FAINT WITH HUNGBR. " ty-fourth street and Fifth avenue, and you will take the corner of Twenty-second street." "How do you know that?" "Watt a bit. Am I right?" "TeB, sir," sa'd the man in black with decision, "you are." "Very good," continued Farley. "And now, as tho bets are made, it can't do. any harm to have a little talk and find out why we made them." ' "I'll tell you why I made mine," said Archer, with a laugh. "It was a sure thing that my uncle knew where the man was going, but for obvious reasons he didn't care to be too specific.' When he named the Twenty-third street ooruer I said to myself, 'What does that mean?' And I decided that it meant the Fifth Avenue hotel." , "That was the way I sized It up," said (he gambler. "It's a, certainty that you think tho man is going there, and I'v oi) doubt that he thinks so himself. But vur friend hers thinks differently. And I'll tell you why. It's because bur friend s a detective who has a warrant for the gentleman upon whom we have wagered Our money. He intends to arrest him and take him straight to headquarters. In half, an hour they'd be south of Twenty ascond street, and the bet would be won. So our friend was betting' ' on' a ran thing." ' "No more than he was," cried the man In black, pointing to Warren. . - ; ''Honest Dim" pulled hia mustachs down upon one side and then upon the other, and, having thus adjusted hi .countenance lu a manner satisfactory to himself, he said to the man in black; "You've got a warrant for Forbes Hol land, a - gentleman sport who stabbed a friend of his M the Bennlngs rat track on Sept. 8. 'I. v ' ' 1 "I have, was the response. "Well, well," said "Honest Dnn," "As Dr. Warren ' knevr 'where the rnan was going, "and jfou, Mr. Archer, knew what' your uncle knew," and Mr. Johnson, my friend In black, knew more than either of you, I'd like to know what show the poor but honest gambler had in this game?" No one answered. "I'll tell you myself," said Farley, "I knew what you were, up to, Johnson, I got the whole story out of the conductor, whom you had to take Into your confi dence because there might be a atop not down on the schedule. And I know one thing more. This man is not Forbes Hol land." ' Johnson sprang to his feet. "Do you Buppose I don't know every man of that kind in his counLry?" con tinued "Honest Dan." "Will you dare tp make that arrest when I'm prepared to swear that, although this man answci'B Forbes Holland's description perfectly, he doesn't look any more like him than you do and not quite so much like him as I. Warren doesV" "Mr. Farley," said Johnson, 'Is Uw straight?" "Well, you'vs heard of me," responded "Honest Dan." Johnson spread his hands abroad. "That settles It," said he and subsided Into his corner, "And now how does the bet stand?" continued Farley. "There'll be no ar rest. This man, whoever he may be, is free to go where he likes. If he goes to th Fifth Avenue hotel he'll get thsrt Inside of half an hour, and Mr. Archer will win. But our friend li not a pack of cards; he oan bo acs high or deuoe low any time that he wants to be, and until It's all over, gentlemen, I have a hew.' . "We haven't long- to wait," said Arch er. "We're across the Harlem river. By lingo, this has been a great game I" The train rumbled through the tunnel and stopped at last In the station, where all the persons concerned In this narra tive promptly alighted. At the gate the man who was not Forbes Holland wes met by a youth who greeted him with affection. "How Is my brother?" asked the trav eler eagerly. "Oh, he's ever so much better," cried the boy. "He's all right now, the doctor says." The man put a hand suddenly to Us eyes. "I'm glad, glad!" he stammered and then, with a smile, "Since he's all riKht, I won't hurry, I'll step across to the Orand Union and have a morsel of dinner. I've been too anxious to eat since morning, and I'm faint with hunger." "Forty-second street is a long way north "f Twenty-fourth," said "Honest Dan" Farley. "OeuUuuen, I stai.i to win."
