SARATOGA HIGH LIFE
JULIAN RALPH DESCRIBES AMER
ICA'S MONTE CARLO.
Wall Street Magnates and Profes
sional Gamblers Woo the Goddess
of Chanc* Together—Immense
Sums Won and Lost.
The faro games attracted the grpat
players and the high play. It was
difficult for an ordinary man whr,
earns his living by the sweat of hit
lianas or his brow to comprehend
what sums of money were represent
ed by the chips upon these tables. A
great Wall street operator sat In a
Napoleonic attitude, with head down
on his breast, hands folded on his
stomach, and hat titled over his eyes,
at the head of the table with half a
dozen idlers behind and beside him—
one an employe of the place, on a
high stool, watching ail that went on.
And this stock exchange nabob was
one of the men who were playing.
The stacks of ivory lozenges in front
of him represented $1,000 for each
pile. The casekeeper. with his little
Chinese frame of ivory markers, tal
lied each card played by the dealer
opposite, who dealt in the most leis
urely manner, stopping to rake in or
pay off the bets, and taking, some
times, seven minutes between deals.
There comes a stage in faro when two
similar cards cannot or are not likely
to be played one after another, and
then the strong play begins. This
stage had been reached, and all the
players were betting heavily, putting
$500 here. $1,000 there, $250 else
w’here—and topping a pile of chips
with a button now and then, to bet
against instead of on a card. The
stock exchange nabob was on the
other side of the casekeeper, and a
veteran gambler w'as on the other
side betting hundreds where Wall
street staked thousands.
A long, lean, thin-faced young man,
evidently from the west, wearing a
lounging suit of blue flannel lightly
striped with w'hite, lounged along, sat
down by the Napoleonic onlooker, and
pulled from a trousers pocket a thick,
flat pancake of hank notes. Every
note was a $100 bill. He threw out
five of these, received twenty chips,
lost them with promptness and dis
patch,and then threw upon the green
cloth $100 more.
"Who?” I asked.
“Johnny - of Denver, a book
I matter.
“Geting rid of his day's winnings at
the races?” I ventured.
“No; he was hard hit at the races
to-day. He always has stacks of
money.”
What an enviable man! What a
delightful reputation and condition!
May he come to no grief, and may the
last man to whom he tosses a $100
bill be a stone-cutter, who shall grave
upon his headstone: "Here lies John
nie Dash of Denver. He always had
stacks of money.”
I do not understand faro. I cannot
master it “on the salary I get," as
Frederic Remington, the artist, would
say. I saw so much money paid out
and paid in and moved about in little
ivory columns of so many colors—all
without the faintest idea of how or
why it came and went or why so much
of it dwadled idly on the board as
in no other game I ever saw, where
quick and agile croupiers knew their
business—that I came away hopeless
ly befogged. I paused a moment by a
roulette wheel. A mere boy with the
touch of a mother’s caresses still on
his chubby cheeks, came by my side,
and, rolling up a $100 bill Into a pel
let, flung it on a number. The crou
pier knew his calling and gathered it
in. The youth crumpled up another
yellow rag and tossed it after the
first. His aim was true, and it fol
lowed its mate, nimbly, into the till.
Five times he did this, and then, hav
ing made his sacrifice upon the altar
of the ruling deity of the village, he
lighted a cigarette—with a match—
not a bank note—and went beside me
into the street.—Julian Ralph in the
New York Times.
The La«t Resort.
A near relation of the late Baron
Munchausen on the maternal side,
lineally descended from Ananias and
Sapphira, was telling a party of
friends abort treeing a bull buffalo
in one of the great trees of Califor
nia.
"That story lacks likelihood," re
marked the man who knows every
thing, iike so many other men; ‘‘the
buffalo belongs to the ruminant fam
ily, has four or five stomachs, and
walks on hoofs. It has no claws at
all and could no more climb a tree
that, a Jersey cow.”
“As a general proposition you are
right,” said the story teller, with per
fectly unruffled mien. “But this case
was quite exceptional. We were after
tlie buffalo with four of the most
vicious dogs that I ever knew. One
was a hoar hound, one a groat dane,
one a psovie, er wolfhound, and the
other a registered bulldog, with jaws
like wrought iron, 'U’ell, they brought
the buffalo to bay at the foot of the
big tree and pressed h.m so blamed
hard that he just had to c!'. mb. That
was his only salvation.”
California’s Mineral Wealth.
The report of the State Minerals
gist on the production of minerals in
California for the year 1901, which
was made public this week, shows
that the output of the mines was $34,
355,981, against $32,622,945 for the
previous year. Gold heads the list
with $16,989,000, while copper is sec
ond with $5,501,000. Oil is the third
with $2,961,000.
Zola on Education.
Emile Zola was asked the other day
by a French journalist to give his
Ideas regarding education. He replied:
“I was educated at the municipal col
lege at Aix and the I.yeee St. Lou'
in Paris. I lost my father when 1
was quite young, and as my mother
was very weak in her attitude toward
me, I was able to develop in my own
way. I did not learn to read till I
was 8 years old. I may say that I was
educated myself, anil I think that is
the best way. I do not believe in
school education.”
What Puzzled Him.
Sir Joshua Fitch told a story at the
Nature Study exhibition in london, il
lustrating the peculiar wonder at sci
entific knowledge. Sir John Avebury
was showing the heavens through his
telescope to some neighbors and ser
vants, when one exi aimed, ”1 do not
wonder. Sir John, that clever people
find out the sizes and distances of the
stars anil how they move; hut what
beats me is how you ever could tell
their names!”

Statement Showing the Remarkable Prosperity of
Manufacturers of Nebraska and the Light
Taxes They Have to Pay.
The oensus report* for 1900 show the following to be the condition of manufactures in Nebraska:1
Value of land owned by manufacturers.$ 5,359,075
Value of buildings owned by manufacturer* . 15,822,335
Value r.f machinery and tools owned by manufacturers. 23,201,553
Cash and sundries on hand . 26,599,163
Total value.3 71,982,127
By the use of this capital the products of the manufacturers of Nebraska in the census year were val
ued at . 143,990,102
They paid:
Salaries, officials and clerks .$ 2,325,038
Wages to laborers. 11,570,668
Rent of works. 555,750
Taxes. 248,760
Rent of offices and interest . 6,838,018
Contractors . 292,871
For materials . 100,866,255
Fuel and rent of power and heat. 1,341,452
Total expenses . 8123,028,813
Net earnings of manufacturers . 20,961,290
The state auditor reports the following amounts as being returned for taxation by manufacturers In the State
of Nebraska for that year:
Material and manufactured articles .3 136,436
Manufacturers' tools, implements and machines . 268,367
Property of companies or corporations . 1,908,132
Assuming that all of the property in the state reported as being property of companies or corporations’*
should be property of manufacturing corporations (which is improDable, as street railway companies and many
other corporations are known to be in this item), this shows that but 8 6-10 per cent of this class of property vai
returned for taxation, and more direct is the proof that but 1 2-10 per cent of the value of the manufacturer*’ ma
chinery was so reported, as both the census and our tax schedules have this item reported separately and 3268,367
is less than 1 2-10 per cent of 823,201,553.
fci the foregoing statement, the interest paid by manufacturers is reported together with the item of rent* to
the census bureau, and is deducted with the amounts paid in operation; in, a comparison with the railroad net
earning*, it should be remembered that the interest paid by the railroad on its bonded indebtedness is paid out of
the net earnings after the operating expenses have been deducted. The percentage in the comparison is so low that
it i* not changed by our statement.
The Manufacturers Pay One and Two-Tenths Per Cent of Net Earnings for Taxes in Nebraska.
The Railroads Pay Ten and Six-Tenths Per Cent of Net Earnings for Taxes in Nebraska.
Manufacturers’ Net Earnings Were Ten Times Their Assessed Valuation In 1900.
