' * I In 1805 or 1888 I was a civil engineer J ; on tbe Union PnciBc railroad, then : building. The western terminus waa I at Julesbnrg. a city that, like Jonah's ! gourd, sprang up In a night and, 1 ■ like Sodoin, disappeared as suddenly, though Jalesburg's e-:U- H •> was ] from tbe establishment of a new ter- : minus farther on, at Laramie. My headquarters were In Julesborg, and a - more thorough exponent of ail that la 1 vile In humanity never bloomed on the ] face of the earth. All night could be heard the' sound of fiddles In the dance halls. "One more lady In this set," [ "Keno!" and other similar cries. On the evening of my arrival, cnrVraa i to get a glimpse of what was going on, I visited tbe different places of [ hilarity, finally bringing up in a heap 1 of boards that had been nailed togetfi- , er for a gambling den. There wen faro, keno, roulette and In one corner a table at which two men with heaps of money before them were throwing dice. I noticed that this table waa . not Improvised, like the other furnltnre of the place. U was of polished . black walnut and ornamented. One \ of the men throwing dice wks-a pockr marked, red headed man With a aln1 lster countenance, the other a fine - awhile and waa ajrtonliibed at tbe way ; tbe dice rolled for tbe plainsman's ad1 veraary. I bad beard of loaded dice ! and tbe skill with which tbey could ; be thrown, but I han never dreamed of . anything like this. It seemed that tbe red beaded man could do with tbem aa he liked. Finally the plainsman Intimated that all was not fair. Tbe " other, instead of resenting the Imputation. called on me to throw for him for awhile. I did so and met with the same astonishing lack as himself Handing the dice back to him. J stood wondering how the' trick was done, for J did not doubt that It was a trick. Of course the pockmarked man lost occasionally, but it was plain to me that such losses were Intentional. At times his luck seemed to be very poor, while that of the plainsman waa never very good or very bad. How the dice could be manipulated, aa I waa sure they were. I could not conceive, but while I was racking my brain t* . discover tbe plainsman had lost several thousand dollars, and tbe pile before him had been reduced to nearly nothing. While In that country I carried ao valuables. In my trousers pocket I had a sliver watch worth perhaps $5. Having an appointment at 10 o'clock. 1 pulled out my watch, aa I thought, to note the time, but Instead drew forth a pocket compass, an article I needed constantly. What was my astonishment to see the needle^lbrate feverishly, and when It settled. Instead of pointing to what I had supposed was north. It pointed due east. Tbe men at the table were so Immersed In their game that I did not ask tbem where tb« ' north pole lay. but turned to a man behind me. He told me It was where I ) supposed It was. 1 Here was new food for thought I , looked at the table and saw that und« , Its top there was an Inclosed space about a toot square. I wondered whj a piece like that should be In a dice 5 table. Then It occurred to me that ^ there was something In It to Influence i the dice. From that I argued that this : something also Influenced my needle, t therefore It must be magnetic. "Stranger." I said to the pockmarked man "whafs In the box under tbe table?" He glanced at me without reply. The plalusmsD bent down. then, putting his bands to the table top. gave a lift The top came off and exposed the Interior of the box. There In plain view was a horseshoe magnet, or. rather, s f telegraphic machine. The plainsman f whipped out a revolver and covered his antagonist, f "Thank ye. stranger," he said to me. • "Please look Into It while I 6ee that " yon baye fair play. Hands up. please!" } to the pockmarked man. j The order was obeyed, and 1 made the examination. Inside the tabic, be- | sides the magnet, was a battery eon- • nected by Insulated wires running Inside a leg of the table, with a button about midway down. On one face of the dice were metal disks. When the gambler wished these disks to fall face on tbe table he would press the button with his knee, turn on a current, end the magnet drew them down. Without tbe current they fell by chance. Over the disks wss a thin coating the color of ivory. The plainsman kept one eye on the man he covered, while with the other he reapproprlated all the money he- had loet There was no disposition an the part of any one In that country at that time to pnnlsh such rascality, and aa soon as -he had got his own he went out, asking me to go with him. When we were alone together be oald: "Young man. I've got a thousand dollars to give you for the secret you fonnd out about what was inside that . table." I replied that I never gave nothing ' for something, but be was welcome to the secret, and I told him how my compass had been influenced by the battery. He seemed very much Interested and pleased, remarking that he must have "one o" tbem pizen p'lntln' little things" himself, and offered me the thousand dollars for mine. I declined this new method of rewarding me for saving bis money from the pockmarked maD. who, by tbe bye. was connected with the gambling den, whereupon he said the least I could do was to "shake," which I did. - - - , S.
