8 ' THE SAN FRANCI THE DELUSIVE ROYAL FLUSH, Offered as Bait in the Nickel- in - the-Slot Machines. DOCTORED INSTRUMENTS The Prevalent Gambling Fad Made to Bring in Heavy Returns. POOR CHANCES FOR PLAYEBS.‘ The Cards Are Fixed in the Machines | So as to Easily Defeat the Players. ‘Who hasn't dropped a nickel 1n the slot of those seductive. little machines to- be found almost in any place where men most do congregate? ‘Who, also, has not on some occasion, felt himself clever or lucky when the | nickel therein placed brought forth either cigars or drinks far in excess of theamount expended in the venture? These successful occasions rémain in- | will, the cylinders that the jobberyis done. While the remaining fifty cards are placed. they are arranged in siuch a way that there is not a machiné running in this City to-day with more than one royal flush in'it, if there is even that much. Speak to a proprietor of a machine, he will look at you in perfect amazement if you even suggest this possibility. He will iry to make you believe that the usual four royal flushes i an ordinary deck of cards may be turned out at any time, but it is not a fact. And to prove this a cus- tomer has but to insist on the runner of the game opening up his machine, if he It is not that the five top cards of each suit are not on the cylinders, but that in each suit, excepting one, two ot the cards necessary in the royal flush happen to be on the same cylinder; and but one can pos- sibly show up. § Therefore, in the machines where there is but one royal flush to be had it may easily be computed what few chances a player has to draw it. To get the first card it is one chance in ten. To get the second at the same time is one in a hun- dred, the third card one in a thousand, and so on. In other words, it is one chance in one hundred thousand for a single royal flush to come out. Is it there- fore astonishing that the saloon proprietor can risk four bottles of champagne against a nickel ? Asto the four-of-a-kind cards the ma- chines are usually all right, excepting with the jacks and tens. In a machine exam- ined yesterday by a CALL reporter and an artist of Tue CALL's staff both the jacks and tens were short. 5 The cards calculated to bring about straights and flushes are also.placed so as to minimize the‘chances of them. And it | is so with the hands calculated to’ bring good returns to the players. If people will gointo saloons or cigar- stores to drink or smoke it would not be a bad idea to buy their requirements out- right. Atallevents itisa good thing to let the nickel-in-the-slot machines severely alone, HIS DEATH AN ACCIDENT,. Verdict of the Coroner’s Jury in the Case of Russell Warren.

A HARD GAME TO BEAT. 1 delibly impressed in the player's mind, | and the hope of a recurrence has been as | disastrous alike to the youths and grown men of this State as the worst implements | for gambling that have heen prohibited by police regulations It is almost an axiom that & man play- ing faro-bank for the first time, without even the knowledge of how to place his checks on the Jayout, will win his wager. Whether it is that Providence looks out for the innocents, or some other inexpli- cable reason, the virgin player’s luck when he takes the initiatory degree, is always a source of anxiety to faro-bank dealers. 1t is only after he has had the first. taste of blobd that he is expected to rush in and lose, yes, keep on losing until some fine day he has landed himself behind prison by It is the same thing with the nickel-in- the-slot machines. They are located in nearly a1t the saloons and cigar-stores in | the City, eating up nickels as fast as the | s‘tiger’” cam eat up dollars. ! ltisa cammon thing now for clerksin | downtown houses, boys in .retail stores and promenaders along the thoroughfares toform pools. They each put in afew nickelsand play the machine, expecting to win at least an equivalent in drinks and cigars to the investment. | The players always bear in mind some previous winming, and forget entirely the subsequent loeings, and they go ahead. The machine whirls around thousands of times daily, and_ the saloon man or cigar- dealer sits back in happy contentment | from the xnowledge that he has ali the ad- vantages and cannot but quit winner. The desire for playing these machines has become so great that in most of the ale houses of this City the players have found it necessary to place their winnings to their credit, or else take tickets or metal checks entitling them to drinks at some. | future time. Itis not that the winnings are so great as compared to the number of nickels dropved in the slot, but that the gambling inferest beinz once aroused the player keeps on feeding the machine hop- ing for some good stroke of luck which will bring to him tickets enough to off- stand the money expended. Seldom, if ever, this occurs, and the player finds himself overwhelmingly out of pocket, but | with tickets galore which he must pack around or fill himself and friends up with \"beverages undesired at the time, In every way thesé nickel-in-the-slot machines are against the public good, | and, strange to say, while they were «athered in, confiscated and broken up by ‘the police & year ago, they are now per- } mitted to run everywhnere with open doors snd unmolested. The craze for this kind of gambling has \sbecome so great that the handlers of the ymachines are brazen in their methods of | dealing with their customers. They but “p head cards with alluring prizes. “Free Drinks” or “Free Cigars” in big |+black letters top. the quantities that may e won. - In some saloons four guarts of cham- ‘pagne are given if the player secures a | woyal flush. That appears to be very tempting. A straight flush winsone quart «©of champagne, and four aces one pint of | champagne.. For these sanme hands in the irotation mentioned 100, 50 and 18 cigars fare given to the successiul player. From ‘these top hands down to a pair of aces drinks or cigars are dispensed in accord- ance with, the vproprietor's judgment of tie value of the hand. - 1f these little machines - only were straight and honest, and the player had a fair chance of winning an equivalent of the money ne invests, one element of wrong would be removed. But such .is not the case. When the machines were introduced here a short time prior to the Midwinter Fair, they were comparatively new and as fair as such a game could pos- sibly be. Since then, however, like in many other things success brought about & greed for more. Like the man of the golden eg, story, - the machine handlers were no satisfied with their rich harvest, and they have doctored their games so that at this time the goose is being killed. 1t seems superfluous to describe the ma- chine. In its- ordinary appearance it is already well known, but few people ex- cepting the owners know of its inside workings. In fact. the proprietors of the establishments where they are in operation find it judicious to make some excuse in not acquiescing to the request of a cus- | tomer to see the inside works. The reason is obvious to anyone who has | investigated the affair. It is'composed of five little cylinders or drums, on each of . which are ten cards. This makes fifty cards in all, or two less than 2 complete deck. Hence, these two missing cardsare 1 an element against four of a kind coming , out at all times, and lessening the players’ [ chances in making even a pair or three of a kind in the two missing suits. But this | ds only a small matter. Ivisin the distribution of the cards on ] years and who was found asphyxiated at his home, 620 Folsom street, on Thursday, was said by a Coroner’s jury vesterday to | have come to his death by accident. It came out that he had, the evening | before, maae arrangements with a friend, Harry Loy, which discounted any sus- Yicion of suicide. The supposition is that Warren turned off his gas when he re- tired and by some accident turned it on again. ‘Warren was very popular among those who knew him well and his untimely death is much regretted. GUARDSHEN BE ANGR Officers of the Defunct Third Regiment Vote Blank Ballots. Members of the Nationals Say Their Only Fault Was to Have a Majority. There were & sorry lot of National Guardsmen assembled at the armory at the corner of Gough and Page streets last evening. They were representatives of Companies A, E and H, which had just reluctantly moved from their late quarters at Tenth and Market streets. Captain Conley of Company A was mournfully directing his men as they groped abont with lanterns, no gas fixtures having yet been erected, stowing away the paraphernalia. : These three companies, all of the de- funct Third Regiment, feel as if they were being pursued by fate. As one of the members remarked, “It looks as though somebody is always trying to zive us the worst of it.” - At the election held in the armory of the Nationals, on Ellis street, near Polk, the companies in question feel that they sustained an irreparable injury. Accord- ing to their story, ex-Captain John Tilden had made arrangements with them to have the members of the old Third Regi- ment and the Nationals. vote for either J. F. Smith or J. C. 0’Conn or for lieuten- ant-colonel. Either of these would have been satisfactory to the members of the late Third, but when they learned that Tilden was engineering his forces to elect Victor Duboce, a distinctly National can- didate, the Third rebelled. Tilden then told them, so they claim, that their votes were immaterial, as he could elect any man he chose without them. An addi- tional sting was added to this boast by the fact that a count of noses indicated that he could make it good. ‘When the evening for the election ar- rived the officers of the Third, fifteen in number, duly attended and cast their bal- lots, but.when the returns were canvassed fifteen ballots were found unmarked; and these were the ballots cast by the ofticers of the Third. Asa resl?lt Charles Tilden, Charles Baxter and Captain Mangel were elected majors and Duboce was elected lieutenant-colonel with 20 votes out of a possible 35, with no opposition. At the conclusion of the election the victorious Nationals invited the vanguished Third to a banquet. The scorn with which the in- vitation was rejected was not altogether silent and a free fight at one time looked imminent. The explanation of Captain E. C.

STHE AMERICAN DOLLAR DOG. Death of the Famous Canine Detector of Counterfeit Money. Tony, “the American dollar dog,” died at Cheyenne, Wyo., last Tuesday, aged 8 years. When Tony was a year old he was found to have an ‘unaccountable craving for American silver dollars. He 'would refuse to touch any other kind of coin, and as his passion for American dol- lars was fostered by his owner, George W. Brown, he soon became an expert in dis- criminating between a good dollar and a counterfeit. Tony would refuse to pick up a counter- feit dollar, a Mexican dollar, a 5 franc piece or $20 gold piece, but would catch a good American dollar in his meuth before diminish- and even in his last and fatal | sickness he could onfy be kept quict by al- | lowing him to play with an American_ sil- | ver dollar. Tony's death was caused by | | dropsy ana a cola contracted on a recent | | trip on which he was taken to Denver and Salt Lake City. Tony was a cross beiween a Yorkshire setter and a bulldog. Aside from a bright intelligent face he was not very prepossessing in appearance, being a typical “yellow dog.” is owner valued | him at $5000 and refused numerous tempt- | ing offers for him. ——————— The Word Motorman. As the word motorman is already in common use to designate a man whose | occupation is to operate a motor which | propels a car, it seems quite consistent with good logic and good usage to extend the use of this term to include those whose 2N W\ A\ \ LS TONY, THE SILVER DOLLAR DOG. \ . AN it could reach the ground whenever one was thrown to him:. He became the talk of the town and was always shown to vis- itors as one of the attractions of the city. Hundreds of these visitors were credulous of the stories told of Tony, but went away convinced after trying him with good and bad coins. The dog’s wonderful faculty was fully tested wnen he was about two years old, when he was taken to Denyer, and in the presence of a number. of bank officials ‘and other coin experts tested with coins by the United States Treasury Department. Scoresof counter- Nationals, does not entirely accord with the story as told by the officers of the Third. *All is fair in war,” he _said, “‘and the only thing they have to complain of is we had more votes. There was no boast made that we could elect any man we wished. They said all they wanted was their late major, Thomas Drady, for major of the new regiment. There were three vacancies to be filled. We made all three nominations, Charles Tilden, Charles Box- ton and Thomas Drady, their man. On the first ballot Tilden and Boxton each received 20 votes and Drady received 15. ‘‘Had they all voted for their man, he would have received thirty votes. As it was he lacked three votes of receiving enough to elect. Another ballot was re- uired, and as they refused to vote for their own man, we put np J. H. Mangel and elected him, They dirf not nominate any one for lieutenant-colonel, but in- sisted on a ballot and then voted 'blanks.” Asa result of the clash, several of the officers of the olu Third, including Cap- tain Fitzpatrick of Company E, are said to contemnvlate resigning, feits, some of them excellent enough to deceive the ordinary bank cashier, were thrown to him, but he refused to pick them .up, while he would jump for joy and eagerly snatch up every good - dollar. Upon one’ occasion a dollar of doubtful appearance was given to Tony’s owner. Thinking it ‘was counferfeit, Mr. Brown threw it to Tony, who' without hesitation vieked it up. ‘Mr. Brown accepted the coin as good and included it with his next deposit at the. bank. The bank cashier threw it out and declared it counterfeit. Mr. Brown then sent the coin to.the Treasury Department, where it was found 10 be genuine. & _The wonderful faculty of the animai lea his owner to utlize him for mone{_ making purposes and for almost a year Tony was a dime museum star in Denver, Salt ‘Lake City, Butte and other Western cities, al- ‘ways attracting attention and never mak- ng a failure in discriminating between £00d and bad coin. The constant work of picking up coins wore out the dog’s front teeth, and he had to be retired from the stage. - Although his teeth were almost gone Tony’s love for silver dollars did not occupation it will be to operate motor ve- hicles, whether public or private. In the case of public stages and omnibuses this extension will be easy, but thé aristocratic term, “coachman,” is likely to prove more obstinate, because of the love of the aristo- cratic classes for terms which separate or aistinguish them from anything "public or common, . e But if the men whase occupation it is to operate a motor vehicle is to be called 4 motorman why may not the term apply also 10 & man whose occupation it is torun and care for the motor boat? . With the increased demand for motor vehicles and boats will come a corresponding demand for men - competent to manage them. Those who take up this work will consti- tute a special branch of skilled laber, and for the entire class no better word appears than “‘motormen.’” E ————————— An 01d Railway. | : There was a railway in'full working or- der in 1805.(perhaps the Surrey Iron Rail- way). I have an advertisement card of thisline dated ‘“Wandsworth, 8th Jany., 1805,”" in_which' it is stat¢d that the Croy- don and Merstham Iron Railway is open to the public, and thas the tolls vary from 1d per ton per mile for dung to 2d per ton. per muile for chall, ‘brick, ete.; 3d for lum- T, metals, coke, corn, flour and potatoes, and 3d per caldron* for- coals. A= memor- andum in manuscript-at the back of the card indicates that sixty miles of the line cost £50,000, that each wagon carried two and a half tons, tbat one horse drew two wagons, and that the carriage cost 4d per ton per mile, besides the toll. ' The gauge of the rails appears to have been 4 feet 2 inches.—Notes and Queries. i Mail orders should be sent at once.
