Recent Developments in the KýWOOD district, comprising the Bradford,
Brooke and Syndicate Additions to Helena, make the above staItement almost
absolutely true.
But there are other features of this part of Helena that out
weigh the probability of finding gold in paying, quantities, and
those are the freedom from smoke and dust that

IOMEN WHO PLAY POKER

They Are More Reckless
Than Men.

The gaming instinct is as old as the world
and when occasionally there arises a hue
and cry as to its prevalence in modern
Gotham, public interest is at once awakened
and we are supposed to be on the road to
ruin says the New York Recorder. In one
of his studies Hogarth represents two ruf
fans, seated upon a tombstone and engaged
in matching pennies. In the eager, hawk
like expression of the eyes. the set lines
about the mouth and the look of absorbed
interest in the faces the artist has faithfully
portrayed the gamester. Gamblers of the
present, however, do not match pennies;
instead they play poker. As for women,
once imbued with the spirit of gaming they
become even more reckless than men. In
New York there are to-day any number of
quiet little poker parties made up of women
who secretly spend every cent they can ob
tain in the seductive sport.
One of the most inveterate gamblers I
have knowledge of is a young widow whose
valor is equal to her discretion, but whose
mad propensity to gamble has brought her
to the brink of bankruptcy. She invaria
bly resided in a fashionable locality, where,
installed in luxurious apartments, she re
oeived her numerous feminine visitors.
These ladies frequently remained late,
often deferring their departure till long
after midnight. The little bird that tells
tales soon spread the report, and it was io
mored that high play was indulged in, that
hundreds of dollars passed from fair hands
to others equally as fair during these
seances. One evening there was an uproar.
Chairs were overturned. There was stamp
ing of feet, while angry feminine exclama
tions issued from the room. Investigation
showed three indignant women, who were
pouring the vials of their wrath upon the
discreet widow, who had been detected in
"filling" her hand from a "hold out" ar
ranged beneath the table, a contrivance
into which could be conveyed cards from
the pack, to be drawn from at pleasure. In
consequence, the widow was obliged to re
linquish her illicit gains and simultaneously
her apartments.
Then there is the married pair of profes
sionals, who practice is to make boarding
house acquaintances, whom they entice
into a little "friendly game." Their usual
method is to "whip-saw;" that is to say,
when their opponents bet. one or the other
will proceed to "raise" until the outsiders
withdraw. No one venturing to "call," the
husband or wife sweeps in the stakes. A
pair of this description have a cleverly
devised code of signals by which they
ascertain each other's cerde. /1'hey
fuonish a buffet, to which their guests have
access, and nothing is spared to provide
material comforts for the unwary. Many
s mnan who drops in there for a social ga.lsl
dlrops out with barely his car fare. As tlhe
predatory nature of these amiable enter
taiuers becomes known it is necessary for
them to change their quarters from time to
time. They frequent the larger boarding
houses, and a peculiarity of their prolonged
stay in a house is that while they pay puuo
tually, other lodgers fall promptly in ar
rears.
Women gamblers usually associate with
masculine companions. A favorite mode
of procedure for a gambler is to select two
pretty young women and establish them in
a flat, where he will invite casual acquaint
ances to pay a social call. The women,
who have "learned their little book," treat
the gambler and his companions with
polite reserve. During the evening
one of the women will propose a game of
poker. The men acquiesce and the
game begins. The women carefully watch
the eye of their leader and play under his
direction. He deals them good cards, while
he himself is a loser. 'Ihey win and the
outsiders lose to the amount of $50 or $150
in, perhaps, half an hour. To watch one of
those dainty decoys, with her hands
clasped, the tips of her fingers resting
against the dimple in her chin. one would
suppose her a marvel of guilelessness. She
is not to be trusted. She poses for effect,
but not in the artistic sense. With her fin
ger tips thus. she indicates to her compan
ion that she holds a pair of aces and awaits
instruction. Not one of her countless little
tricks of gesture and intonation but con
veys its meaning in cipher to her partner.
After a time the gambler and his friends
take their departure. The outsiders have
passed a pleasant.evening. and, having lost
in agreeable company, no one is disposed to
grumble. The true nature of these sittings
is not suspected, and the stranger returns
again and again until he has no more
money to squander. This class of gambler
divides his profits with his feminine ac
complices, who often become as expert as
himself. It is then that the gambler grows
uneasy, his abiding fear being that one or
the other of the women may become at-
tracted to some wealthy victim whose re
current visits mean a steady profit. Should
his fears be realized, the woman in the lan
guage of the sporting fraternity, will "give
the whole snap away." Consequently the
gambler selects for his "side partners"
women who are non-susceptible and hard
ened as himself.
There are also other games in progress
less systematic and for lower stakes. A
Fifth avenue dressmaker, considering the
proceeds of her establishment insufficient,
quietly intimated to her patrons that they
might play in a room which she had fur-
nished for the purpose. Htercustomers, find
ing it a convenient rendezvous, made ap
uointments with others who were in the
secret, and, as a result, the modiste netted
a neat profit by this new formuof patronage.
Poker playinu is rapidly invading the
salons of society, while abroad it is referred
to as the national game of Americanss.
:Nociety women in giving toeas and recep.
tions have become weary of the inevitable
recitations and piano playing and have
taken to cards. At first the stakes were
small, but this being voted a trillo slow,
they were gradually increased. Now it is
no uncommon occurrence that after one of
these delightful little "at homes" there are
those who leave with purses considerably
lightened. Poker playing is unquestion
ably the popular fad among young matrons,
but as the husbantds of the fair exploiters
do not interpose their objectione, there
seems no apparent excuse for the prohibi
tion of this fashionable amateur highway
robbery.
