CHEATED AT POKER.
A PAGE FROM THE UNWRITTEN HiS- TORY OF A UNIVERSITY.
Punishment Meted Out to a Dishonest Student by Society an/l the Faculty—A Young Man Who Kept Step With His Not Brilliant Antecedents,
%?
‘Talking about poker,’’ said a mic gle aged man to a coterie at Chamber lin’s, ‘‘reminds me of something that yxecurred about 20 years ago at the Uni- versity of Virginia. That was about the liveliest epoch in the bistory of the university since the war, or for that matter of that before it, when the life led by the students is taken into con- sideration. There was a hig crowd of devil may care young men there, most of them with plenty of money, and they made Charlottesville and sur- rounding Albemarle fairly hum. These kindred spirits formed a society which took the name of ‘Eli Bananas.’ ”’
Here the speaker smiled at evidently amusing reminiscences. ‘There is no telling what the ‘Eli Bananas’ didn’t do. For the quintessence of mischief and devilment they took the laurels. There was nothing downright bad about them, but their antics were awful. Fan- tastic were the tricks they played and grotesque their jokes. Between freaks the Elis were prone to poker, and it was customary down there for the players to assemble at this or that student’s room. That brings me to my story. One coterie of poker players comprised sons of some of the best known and wealthi- est men in the south, and into it was introduced a young Virginian who was gifted with many attractive traits appar- wutly, but whose antecedents were not particularly brilliant. 1711 call him Dick Lurk, but that wasn’t his name.
**Most of the other fellows in the co- teria had roommates who were boning up for the final examinations. It was well along in the spring, and Lurk had quarters to himself on East Lawn. Con- sequenily the poker began to be played exclusive!y in his room. When the evening seemed propitious, the word would be passed around at supper that ‘three Kentuck’ would be in order, and at 8 o’clock or thereabout the players would assemble at Lurk’s. Lurk’s luck was stupendous. He won steadily, and as the game was pretty stiff his win- nings were substantial. It was noticed after awhile that he always passed out when somebody had a particularly big hand on somebody else’s deal, but that he always beld a top hand when there were big ones out against each other on his own deal. Then somebody noticed that the seals were always broken on the half dozen new decks of cards pro- vided each night before the game began and that Lurk in dealing always closely scrutinized the cards as he) gave them out.
‘*At last one night the son of a fa- mous Confederate general who now lives in Baltimore became convirced that Lurk was cheating. Picking up the deck that Lurk bad just dealt and out of which he bad got a hand with four queens against an ace full held bya young Kentuckian the young man said quietly:
‘* *Some one is cheating at this game, and, Lurk, I think it’s you.’
‘*‘Now, at the University of Virginia such a declaration, if improved, meant somebody's death to a certainty, and ip au instant the party was on its feet.
‘**Just wait a minute, gentlemen,’ said the accuser quietly. ‘I’ve been watching this man. Let some one exam- ine the backs of these cards with this magnifying glass.’
‘*‘The Kentuckian took the glass and closely scanned the geometrical designs on the backs of the cards.
‘* *By Cesar!’ he ejaculated. ‘Every court card is distinctly marked!’ Exam: ination by the otber players quickly proved the truth of this.
‘‘There vas a consultation over what should be done with Lurk, who stood with head hung dawn, overwhelmec with the proof against him. It was de cided that he was not worth calling out, as he was not a geitleman, ahd the 72. dict was that he should make restitu tion of all the money he had won since bis participation in the game and suffer ostracism in the university. He war — to sit down and write out 4 check for all the money he had won, the memorandum books of the other players showing the amounts they had lost at various times, and he was kept under surveillance until the Charlottes. ville bank, in which he kept a heavy account, opened next morning. One of the party rode down to Charlottesville

and cashed the check, and then the sen- |
tence of ostracism went into effect. ““That fellow bad the unheard of ef- frontery to remain at the university un- til the finals were completed. He was there six weeks. No student or professor or servant or townsman, DO Man or wo- man, white or black, spoke to him oi took any-notice of him. He attended the final balls, and no one recognized him. He was not quizzed in a lecture room or addressed by « professor. Still he re- mained until the university closed for the season, but he might as well have been in the middle of the Sahara deser! so far as intercourse with people was concerned. ’’— Washington Star.
