A tory is told of ji game of po-
ker that moved .he capital of ).-
Ic.'iia. It waj at the tucm ra !
winter session at Ynnkto::, vi- ;
several towns were pitted again.-?, j
one another as to which should mj- j
cuie tho coveted honor. It hat- .
pc-ned that lo towns were tied
on the vote, and a single addi
tional buliot -.vould have secured
the prize for either. Jt was in
this condition of affairs that a jol
was t)ut up to secure the MiiHe
lacking vote by inveigling a po-1
her loving member into a game of
draw.
There were four in the party
three from one ot the rival towns,
and the proposed victim from the
other. The game y.'ks in an upper
room of a hotel, and the play was
high and furious, jus the partici
pants had full purses. The great
jame was after awhile opened
with 100 in the pot. It had been
agreed to give the victim a fine
hand and to give one of the other
three conspirators a hand that
would be it it. He got the hand,
looked at it, looked at it, and said,
as he raised the ante: "It will
take S200 to draw cards."
The other two conspirators
passed out and the victim raised
$200. They see-sawed until 2,000
was up, when the drew. The
conspirators drew one card to four
kinsrs. The victim hesitated, and
finally drew three. Then the bet
ting began and did not stop until
82,000 more was on the table.
Then the conspirator made his side
even and said:
"I am out of money, but I'll
raise you 1G0 acres of land in Bea
dle county. No, I won't either,
but I'll tell you what I will do
I'll bet3rou my vote on the capital."
"Done !" said the victim, and
tho bauds were spread out. Tho
conspirator had four kings and
reached for the pot.
"Hold on !" said the victim, as
I he laid down four aces. "Your
vote wdl brincr the capital to Bis-
marck," and it did.
j His hand had been a queen-full
jon aces, and he discarded tho
j queens, but where he got the aces
nobodv could tell.

Young Bennett was at

Whv did voa not describe the

thundered the gieat man.
"Why, it did baffis description."
""What do you mean, sir?"
"That it baffled tho description
of any 15 a week reporter."
Bennett raised his salary.
