District Attorney Jerome, New York City, who is active in the work of suppressing the gambling dens of that city, in response to the question : 'Are there any iy Square gamblers ?"-- that is to say, there any profes- sional gamblers who always and. in all circumstances" play fairly 77 To this Mr. Jerome smphatisally says "No." To all who doubt this shops: tive he suggests that they, or on who Fit foolish eno! to 4 can an easy to th thro a gambler's den, to consider') the against them: In the first place there are the chan oes fixed by the rules of the game, which vary, but are always regulated to bring the "house" out away ahead before year is out. Then comes the question of the rair- ness of the game. It is to be remem- bered that the professional gambler is an outlaw and social outcast; that his greed for money has made him so; that he is perfectly familiar with the tools he his hands, knows full well how to mani a them to the swift and certain disadvaut of his victim, and then say how much chance there is that this habitual violator of law will permit his adversary to leave his "house" a victor in the struggle for gain. Moral restraint, did you say? He has none or be would not be a gam? r. Practical regsons, did you say ? The saying runs \jn the fraternity, "A sucker is born every minute." If he refrains from robbing you, it is because by letting you win he can' rob your neighbor or friend, and so he makes you the accomplice of his erime. Your time will come. It is as dure as any fate. A man who has deliberately placed H outside of the law and be- yond the obligations of society for the purpose of taking your money money of other donkeys is basdly ib) be trusted to permit you to walk ou of his ""house" night after night w the cash for which he has sacri secwity, ce of mind and the re" 8 of his fellow man. Would that erome's practical view of the folly of gambling could he hammered into the wooden heads of young men of this generation--that they could be made to see how ridiculous they appear to the eves of common sense. Jerome thinks that of all vices that sap courage and corrupt seli-respect a om Be the duct and excess, list. In this tie something might be said for the benefit of young oll men who pay for the expen- sive offices and establishments of stock brokers, and 'think they are business nien when they bet against the marked cards and double dealing combinations of Wall #treet and other stréety and allovs with "special wires" Tunning to Wall street.
