PLAYING A MAN ATHIS OWN GAME

OriginalBilly Parmeter went to college where

he became familiar with the differentmethods used by atudeuts who eitherwont study or cant learn to help themthrough their examinations Mindyou I dont say that Billy used any ofthese methods In the first place he-w g BO bright that he could keep wellwp with his classes and find plenty oftime to work most of the mischiefthat was accomplished during his HO

journ in college In the second placeBilly wa fairly honest and would nothave ponied unless he was sure ofbeing found deficient If he didnt BeMils as it may Billys chum was bothlazy and stupid and to help himthrough his examinations Billy Invent-ed

¬

a wire and elastic contrivance thatwould enable the student to hold cardsup his sleeve on which were writtenthe demonstrations of various prob-lem

¬

that might be propounded to thestudent

After being graduated Billy went tothe wild west There he suffered fromthe usual pranks played on a tender-foot

¬

but ashe was a good fellow hemade friends from the start Therewn one custom of the country hewould never follow That was carry ¬

ing a revolver at his hip or rather apair of revolvers at his hips His

I

friends remonstrated with him for notdoing so telling him that there wereplenty of men about mean enough toshoot him down in cold blood eitherfor revenge or gain

Billy played draw poker just as anyother western wan He never wonanything but hitf losses were not great

l and he considered that the fun he gotI out of it was worth what it cost himt He never played with men who were

not supposed to be square so he hadnothing to fear in being cheated andto tell the truth he was a much betterpoker player than most of those withwhom he played In fact It was soonnoticed that if Billy found himself get¬

ting too far ahead he Invariably playedvery badly till he had lost his win ¬

nings >

One day a new man named Morgancame Into town ostensibly looking foropportunities to invest money Hewas a suave talker and soon gainedsufficient confidence to be admitted tothe poker parties The strangec loststeadily for a week though not verylarge amounts then his luck turnedand he won steadily Meanwhile hehad succeeded in getting the boys toraise the limit and his winnings were

1 In far greater volume than his losingsBilly informed the others that he be-lieved the man was a card sharp whohad come among them to get theirmoney Unfortunately they were allby this time losers except Billy sothey turned a deaf ear to him and keptoo playing with the stranger Billytold them that he would keep in thegame with the hope of discovering-some flaw in the strangers play

From this time the hands held byMorgan and by Billy were something

r

J remarkable Billy didnt hold as large I

cards as Morgans but he played themI

with far greater skill At any rate hewon back all tile money the strangermad taken out of his friends Thes4ranc realizing that Billy was amatch for him Informed the boys thatBilly was a card sharp and they mustget him out of the game When theydemurred he Aadarwi tfcat It theydidnt decline to admit Hly and heaoght him cheating lie would get rid

i ef him by shooting him This of courseI was reported to BWy and he was

lurged to arm himself Billy respondedthat if ho mad pointed out the IrreguIcritiw he had observed In the stran-gers

¬

game tile all would UTe rainedlead Thats all he would say aboutthe matter amd as for wearing a re-

T Irer at his hip it was as coosptcn-aaly absent as It had always beenWell the thiag came to a head in

this wise They were all playing in aroom over the store and the handsMeld by both Morgan and Billy werenequaled by the heathen ChineeBiiiy as usual never bet simply be-

cause¬

he had a big band only puttingp his money in large Quantities when

fie knew he had a better hand Mor-gan

¬

was losing steadily It didnt seemto matter how valuable hist cards wereBilly Invariably held better ones Mor ¬

gans brow was every moment becom-ing

¬

more clouded and the brows of theparty Billys excepted were also be ¬

coming more troubled The stranger-wore a revolver at each hip Billy hadno weapon at either hip Finally whenBilly had raked in a jack pot contain ¬

ing 160 there was a sudden move ¬

ment of a hand of every man presentBilly excepted to grasp his revolver

The occasion of this was that Mor ¬

gans hand went back for his and theothers were hoping to head off a move-ment

¬

that was undoubtedly intended-for their friend But both Morgan andthe rest were too late Before thestranger could move his weapon Billyhad covered him with a pair of der-ringers
