He put up two bits, call four, an" the others all come In an' he wouldn't make g-ood That left him just $6, but it -were his deal "When I seen that deal I kind o' says to myself that mebbe I'd sorter mistook Winterbottom, an' mebbe he'd been practiein' some. It were Pear- sail's ante, an' he made it a dollar to play The firet stranger, he -were a little cross-eyed man, he come in, an' the other feller raised it $2 Jake he made good, takln' $3, an 1 Satn he raised it $5 Then the cross-eyed man. made it $5 more to play, an' the other one staid, an' Jake called for a sight for his pile Sam took two cards an' the cross- eyed man took one The next man took two an' Jake took two Well, they all filled. Sam made a full, the croes-ej ed man filled a flush, though it a the straight flush he were after, the next man made a seven full, Sam's beln' nines, an" Jake caught a fourth deuce 1 course, all the bettin' -was a-mongst the othei three, Jake on'y havm' a show for the $24 his $6 called for, but Sam raked in considerable over $100 on the show-down The next pot were a jack on the fours, an' Sam made it $5 to play Neither one o' the strangers opened, so it were up to Jake, an' he busted it for $19, beln' his pile Sail staid out an' the cross-eyed man came In, but he failed to fill, an' Jake was on velvet, with $48 in front of him, lavm' opened on two jacks.

"There was nothin' 3om' on the next deal, so that made it a $1 jack, an' Jake's first saj He opened it again for the size the pot, an' got histed twice, so it cost him $20 moie to play. When it conie to the draw he said he reckoned he'd split his openers, an' he laid aside a queen, holdin' up four "Well, that made a rlppin' good pot, for he filled his flush an' bet all he had before he looked at hi3 draw Just naturally Pearsall an' the oross-eyed man both saw the bet, Sam havm' three aces an' the other man thrpe kings. "By this time they Tras all gettln' pretty sore to think they'd let Jake in with hig $7, but it were too late to kick 1 an' -when it come his deal again, as it I -were, the next hand, I says to myself that I'd just about make- up my mind accordin' to wiiat he did with the cards. If he was to lose, I'd consider it a streak of luck that he'd been havm', but if he was to deal 'em as well as he, had afore I'd conclude that he waa a- learmn' the game "Well, after that deal was over, I never had no more doubts about Winterbottom O' course, havm' as much money as he had to play with, 'twa'n't necessary nor proper to look after Sam's interest in the pot, so he didn't deal Sam nothin', but he gave the cross-eyed man three aces and the other feller a pat straight, takln' care to have a seven spot handy when it would just fit into his up on the draw. An' the bettin' juet come so's't he had a chance to give the second raise, an' tie scooped about $140 on that pot "That left him winnin tol'able near all there was on the table, but the two strangers they both dug an' Sam stayed along with about $30 that he bad left, an' the game went on, "But, Lord bless ye, tnem fellers dldn have no show.

They couldn't win, no matter what they did, an' the game broke up in about twenty minutes, with Pearsall $4.0 ahead and Jake winnin' all the other money in sight, "I ast him about it the next day, aura) he told me ttiat he'd been a the game all the time since he'd first begun to play, an' the way he sized it up it were no use for a man to bet on any cards unless he had a pretty good notion what was out against Mm. 'Some fellers seem to know by he says, "an 1 some has luck, but I -never 5iad no luck to speak of, an" when I come to tryln' to judge of another man's cards by instinct, I didn't ever seem to strike It right, so I made up my mind that the on'y thing for me to do was to study the cards an' get so's't I could tell them by the ieelin'. It takes a heap o' work learnin' but I worked an' if I do say it, Greenhat I don't reckon there's any man on the river that can come I can to tellin' what cards is out, especially when I've dealt 'em' "Well, just naturally, a man with, such talents as that ain't a-goin' to have his light hid under no bushel basket not for very long. The boys leco mzed his talents as quick as I dlfli an' there ain't no man in Arkansas City as is more respected an' more of than Jake is The best of it is that he's square an' don't never play it low down on the home talent. But when it comes to a difficult proposition, such as sometimes has to be tackled when there's a couple o' clever strangers town, I never feel safe thinkin' Jake Winterbottom is in the game."
