A CALIFORNIA GAME.—A couple of gen- Uemen were playing a game of cards for a small sum tn the Saleruc saloon the other evening, says the Eureka Sentinel, when Pete Canaven, who wak sitting by looking at the game, remarked that a few days be- fore he had an extraordinary run of luck, having won nineteen straight games of seven- quired one of the players. ‘e commenced at # dollar a plece,” said Peter, “and doubled the stakes each game.” ‘Was ail the money putup?” “Certainly,” answered Peter, “it Was all on the table in trade dollars; [ ne rake down after the last. game?” “Weil, I »n't exactly remember,” said Mr. Canavan, but it was a right smart i!ttle sum.” «{ sboul@ say it was,” remarked his friend, taking out his pencil and doing a little fig- uring in arithmetical progression on his | tj shirt cuff; ‘you raked down exactly five bun éred and twenty-four thousand two hundred and eighty-eight trade dollars!” “Jernsa- em :” exclaimed Peter, “I had no idea it was somuch!
