HOW MUCH THEY EARN,
and the Sum Total That San Anto-
MO Now Loses Annually,

A great deal of dissatisfaction is ex-
pressed by the merchants and business
men Of this city, at the closing down Of
gambling establishments in this city.
They say it makes times more stringent
and money tighter, as the gamblers were
won't to spend their money as soon as
made.
There are estimated to be in San An
tonic, as regular thing, about 100 gam
blers. The census will run over this
amount but 100 can be relied upon. Every
gambler in Texas. as well as in the north
ern cities, is paid s. per day for his SER
vices. 1t is his regular income, fixed by
a general custom. 1t will only take a
little arithmetic to count up that 100
men at s. per day will earn
total of 5000 per day, or
SIS, 900 per month, and they get it in cash.
This, at an annual computation, will
amount to $4,000 per year, and all of it
Is spent right at home.
The money they make, too, is not, as a
rule, taken from the citizens, but from
transients, travelling men, and Cinnamon,
the latter forming the great bulk OF
heavy losers.
Where is factory that would paw out
s216, 900 per year in wages that would not
be welcomed by San Antonio or any other
city?

is 1T RIGHT
To shoot a Chicken ThIef2

EDITOR LIGHT:-It appears to me the
county attorney acted inconSiderately
in volunteering, as he did, to make al
affidavit against Mr.. w. ID. Hutcheson
shooting of Moline, the Mexican chicken
thief, The MEMORABLE logic of facts" is
decidedly against Mr.. Dewitt, and :the
| law depends on the facts.
| The hen house belonged to Capt.
| Mackey. 1t was situated on his land.
The chickens in the house were the
property of Capt. Mackey. No other
person had legal right to the land, the
hen house, or the chickens in it, or legal
right to force the door and carry off the
chickens: Moline was a burglar and a
thief. These are undisputed facts.
Capt. Mackey had perfect right to
cause pit twenty feet deep to be dug just
inside of his hen house door, and if Moline
had fallen into this pit and broken his
neck, while effecting burglariouS en-
trance, no blame could have attached to
Capt. Mackey. Or suppose he had put
out some bread, nicely buttered with fresh
butter and trough on rats" and Moline,
the chicken thief, being hungry, had
bolted the poisoned bread and gone over
the river Styx. No blame could have at
tached to Capt Mackey. He never caused
Moline to effect burglarious entrance
into the hen house, nor did he fire off the
gun, VI arrange Iue gun espeCldily loI
Molno's benefit. Nobody knew who wa
| the chicken thief, consequently, there was
no malice towards any particular persons,
no intention to hurt and wound any
particular person, no intention to
wound any person engaged in any
lawful business. That is plain,
i admit that had Capt. Mackey caused
spring guns to be placed so as to shoot
persons going along a public road, open
to the public at all hours of the day and
night, and Moline had been shot in the
public road, while lawfully jogging along,
he would have been guilty of criminal
offence for so entilading public thor
oughfare with spring guns, and ropes or
strings crossing said public road, attached
to said guns.
But the hen house of Capt. Mackey is
strictly private property; Moino had no
right TO enter 1t, either peaceably or for
chilly, day or night. Capt. Mackey had a
right to put dynamite, powder, or what
not; in his own hen house to catch thieves
MOlino shot himself, while he was COM
hitting felony. That is the whole of
But, according to the law of Texas,
nothing is criminal, that is not made so,
distinctly by statute, defining the Of
fence, and prescribing the punishment
The courts in criminal cases, have no
common law jurisdiction, but are tied
down, hard and ia t, by the statutes.
Now, is there any statute making it a
crime for man to set a spring gun in
lar and thier? do not think there is any
statute to that effect, and in the absence
OF such law, no person can be convicted
of setting q spring gun in his hen house,
whereby burglar intercepts a load of
shot. ToNEY.

The Presidents Stand.

The little stand erected on the south
east corner of the Alamo plaza, intended
for the use of the president to address the
people, seems to be wrongly placed: the
room in front is inadequate and will
cause the crowd to surge into the park
A better place would be in front of the
post office. The trash could be moved
off the unpaved space and the crowd kept
out of the park.

Badly Scared.

The editor of the CHRONICLE got real
badly scared last Saturday night. He
had published that afternoon, little
obituary of man who died in Astoria
the other day of what the local paper
called general ability" At night the
editor, while in attendance at social
gathering in the Academy, was met by a
very dear friend who without word of
warning abruptly broke in upon the
pleasures of the evening by the an
nouncement, ''The editor of the Noun
taineer is dead Dead! cried the as
tonished CHRONICLE man as he suddenly
turned pale and sought relief from faint
ing by leaning againsta friendly window
sill. ''It cannot be, it cannot be-"
"Alas! it must be so'' was the answer.
l have just been reading of man who
died of general ability and the des-
cription applies to no one else in Oregon
except the editor of the Times Mountain

himself: t'Sara Bernhardt's former
Ieanness once made me the butt of a
comparison that yet makes me smile
when / think of it. One summer day 1
was walking along the main street of the
sleepy old town of Norfolk, in. Virginia.
In front of the leading hotel was stand
ing group of young fellows, evidently
drummers. noticed that as l drew
near they suddenly ceased their CONVEX
sation and became extremely respectful
in their general bearing. Marveling
much, and perhaps trifle inflated at
this change in their demeanor, passed
on. l had gotten almost out of ear
range when heard sound as of a man
,slapping his knee, aud then this remark
broke the stiffness: We'll, I'll be horn
swaggled if that isn't Sara Bernhardtl = !"
