AT THEIR OLD TRIcKs-Alth0ugh the
thleving bunkO game at Second and streets
has been closed, the rascals that were run
ming it are still plying their vocation of
robbng unsophiSticated persons. Yester-
day the steerer," who was arrested on
Wednesday at the Western Hotel, was out
with his associates looking for 'greenies.'
A reporter saw them with q blue-shirted
COunUVman in tow, whom they ran into
saloon near their old headquarters, and
piled with liquor until they got him mel
low enough 10 suit their purposes While
the reporter stepped out for moment they
spirited their victim off through some back
door. and no doubt roped him into betting
all his money on their lottery game. Why
such scoundrels should be permitted to be
at large in this community is something
difficult to comprehend. There are plenty
OF persons who know them to be thieves,
and that they lose no opportunity to rob
every unwary person who once permits
himself to get IN their power. There must
certainly be authority enough vested in the
police department to take in the whole
gang ofbunko thieves on general principles.
