would win the race. In the mile and SO
yards which the horses ran J. B. Bmlth
did not have a call and then the bettor
, called that particular horse a hound.
But he was not the only man at the
Mllwaukle club yesterday to lose money
on the horse races. There were between
40 and E0 visitors in the clubhouse who
' paid close attention to the entries,
-watched the betting odds, looked up the

The bettlns on the horse races wee
greatly supplemented by the downtown
gamblers. These men live in Portland
and place their bets at various saloons
' and cigar stores, the proprietors of
' which telephone them out to Mllwaukle.
These downtown places are nothing
,less than handbooks and the proprietors
are liable to fines and imprisonment, the
same as the pool sellers at SMlwaukle.
The arrangements for pool selling at
the Mllwaukle club are on a' par with
any of the eastern clubs and accommo
dations are provided for the ease and
comfort of the bettors. Two windows
ara maintained, for taking, bets, while
another is employed Dy tne cashier to
pay the winners. This last window was
the one least used yesterday.
, To the right of the poll-sellers, and
raised upon an elevated platform, sat a
.' telegraph operator, receiving reports of
the races as xney were oemg run ore at
Seattle and Butte.- As- the-horses lined

If their very lives depended upon the
outcome of that particular race.
As the horse which had been picked to
win by some devotee would be an
nounced in the lead at one of the posts,
a shout or exclamation would escape
tne tensely drawn lips or the listener.
while thase whose horses failed to re
ceive a call sat eagerly awaiting some
word from their "pony" as he was
gamely struggling hundreds of miles
away to win their money.
They oould see the horses running
and one man shouted: "See her come
down that stretch! What did I tell you
about that horse Sheen?"
.toad Odds Wins.
In the handicap raoe at Seattle, the
premier eveni 01 me aay uie crowa
plainly showed the excitement prevail
ing. The betting was quite even, and as
the man at the telegraph key announced
some flash which changed the odds on
a certain horse that was being heavily
played at the track several would hasten
lo the "bookies" to change their bets,
hoping by the shifting process to hedge
on their losses.
The favorite was Fred Bent, and
many dollars were placed in the hands
of the deft coin handlers of the club
upon hlra. Bent received one call In the
mile and one sixteenth run, while
Johnny Lyons won the race at 4 t 1.
Across rrom tne noolsellers. extendinar
the full length of the lona- room Is a
blackboard on which the names of the
horses, with their weights and jockeys
are written. This board' is about IS
feet high, and Is well lighted by electrio
lights, making It easy for the betters to
read the odds which a little man with a
large moustache was constantly writing
down and erasing as the operator an

The wisdom of this shows the "hroeA

the track with only 50 cents. Were It

monotony. At that time a man dropped
the balance of tha $700 he had been
using in an unsuccessful effort to
"buck the games which are run for
the benefit of no one else but the man
who owns them.
This morning, the managers of the re
sort and the loter met in the office of
a local attorney to compromise and a
part of tha heavy losses were paid back.

that a ' riffle has . marred the opera

Is owned by Ike Oratton. Some months
ago he made a "wash" sale of the place
in order to escape litigation which was
threatened.
Two men had won several thousand
dollars at the tables. Their luck turned
and as they saw their dollars disappear
they threatened - to bring suit for the
money which they had won 'from tha
club and were then losing. The sale
was the result nd another compromise
was effected.
A short time ago all tha old dealers
at the gambling house were discharged
for tha reason, it was said, that they
had acquired tha habit of tipping off
soma of the patrons on bats so money
could be won. Tha patrons In turn paid
a commission to the dealers for the bets

place of those who lost their Jobs and
