Sinoe Monaoo, in Northern Illinois, has been the only place in the 01d Warld where King Rou- Iotte and Queen Rouge-ot-Noir are atill allowed {o publicly wield their seductive sceptor, it has attracted a crowd of desporadoes and blacklegs, such as, perhaps, ore not found in a similarly limited compass in sy part of the globs, A most oxciting occurrence tonk‘ffluo m those gilded halls an the 28d of April last. Tha gambling saloons hiad hoon crowded from an early hour by » throng in which all civilized natious wero rep- resentad. The groat contre of attraction wasthe socond rouge-st-noir table, whero 8 middle-aged Bpaniard wag playing with'an extraordinary run of luok. He hnd staked a 100 frauc note on red, snd rod had won fifleen times in sucoession, He had loft his winnings, oxcopt some gold, in which the bank had paic Tim at first, on the table, and when the hoad croupior Bang out in a monstrous voice, for the fifteenth time, Rouge gagne st couletr,” there was a atir of oxoitemont among tho dense owd of speotators, whose eyen wore riveted upon the lucky winner. Ths bank officials, see- ing that the Bpaniard wanted to risk his whole winnings, amounting then to $200,000, bacame nervous, and deolared they could not accept so heavy a stake. The Spaniard, whoxe imperturbability oxcited eneral admiration, replied that, mccording to ho rules of the ‘*Bank," stakes to the amount of 2,000,000 francs were ‘admissible, A wrangle onsned, and finally he arose, and said con- temptuously : #Very well, if you are afraid, I will play no more!” Ho prepared to take in the pile of bank notes beforo him, when several men, who had been erowding afound him for soms time, exclaimod, “ Stop] stop!" The Spau- iard turned towards them, and asked, in a fone of surprise, “ Why?" Bocause,” - they anawered, “ part of the winnings bolongs to usl” Tho] men maid that they had staked a ono thousand frano note and won eight times. They claimed upward of one hundred thousaud france. All 8 caused intenso exocitoment, "The Spaniard had part of the -monoy, but his vehement intorlooutors snatched " it. 'ho spoctators crowded round the up. The licomen were unable fo force their waj owards tho mon who were souflling witl the Bpaniard. All at once there was a loud shiriel, and then suother, A moment after the crowd foll back & f0ot or tiro from the fight- jug party, and tho Bpaniard was scon, deadly ale, with a bloody poinard in his hand, while wo of Lis adversarios gaspod out that thoy had beon stybbod, A woment afterward the oon- fodorates of the stabbed mon, who sank to the round, folled the Bpaniard to the groud with oir hoavy arme. Meanwhile, durlug this indeacribable scono of confusion and terror, tome sdrolt blacklogn helped thomsolves frocly to the vaat sums of ‘monoy still lyiug on the green baizo table, sud the bewildered croupiers hardly attompted to prevont thom from so doiug, At last ten wol- dlers ontored, oommanded by a Lioutenant.
