Cash in your chips and close the game
The cops are on the raid again.
The tools are taken to the Jail,
While gamblers can go out on bail.
The officers now have chance
To practice their munifcenee
By setting up the game again
Within the confines of the pen.
Dan Day can deal. the others play,
And Kirkham slick for seepers lay.
One Volk will do the porter act.
And Coskran buck with such great tact
That in the end he'll break the lot.
And rush the can with the jack pot
Then quiet will the others lay,
Dead broke, until the next pay day.

evenings, only at matinees.
This is nice charter that Minneapolis has.

He who has supposed that Golightfy Nor
rlll had quit talking 10 hear himself talk is
undeceived. Morrill, now puts intdels, nthe-
lists and Catholics in the same class, which
opens another opportunity for newspaper
war between him and Roger Vail.
The painters and decorators will waste
their time if they discuss rs Organized
Labor Necessity There are two opinions
OH the subject and one settled fact-tbat 1t is
a necessity to the professionally working
man.
R. r. Alderman-Oh. these Minneapolis
taxpayers. They will drive us crazy.
Sympathizing Friend-What is the matter
now?
r. &R. Ave have done all we could
done The best we co Id as we'll as we knew
and now they howl about spending money In
wrong directions and are getting ready to
kick against helping Ed Davenport to fix up
the city's population. Why can't they be
reasonable and be contented that they have
a pure and holy administration, without be-
ing so inquisitive?
Any man who believes the slush put forth
by G. A. r. leaders that the 'war-worn
heroes" are fully reconciled to their Southern
war feeling, should notice the way these
same magnanimous warriors receive the
startling intelligence that seventeen Con-
federate soldiers out of several hundred
employees are working in the national pen
