Muth's Garden.

Prof. Carl Beck's grand concert at
Muth's Garden attracted its usual
large audience. A fine programme
was rendered and greatly appreciat-
by all present The piece termed
"Militoria," Grand Potpourrl and
Prof VIM. Marx violin solo entitled,
Romance" was received with great
applause. Other mem bers also claimed
popular attention. The only draw
back to the scenes of these concerts Is
the difficulty the public experience in
getting transportation by street cars
after the concert. Although cars may
be chock full. they are made to wait
sometimes 80 minutes before they
start home, although other cars are
waiting their turn to pull out, also
loaded.

''BREAKING UP THE GANGS"
"how the Police are Hindered In
failing Crooks"

"How the Police are Hindered in
failing Crooks"
The above is the heading of a paid
for local in the Express of the 10Th
inst. The first statement is: "For
sometime past strangers to the city
and even old time residents have
been lured into the gambling dens
across the San Pedro, and while there
fieeced OF their wealth by sharpers at
cards or drugged and then robbed
The item then goes on to tell how
the vigiIant police officers are circum-
vented by the slick crooks over the
San Pedro. 1t is evident that this
article was perpetrated in order to
divert atten ton from the private
gambling dives, otherwise "club
rooms" or poker resorts, etc, east of
the san Pedro.
The truth Is that the ambling
"across the San Pedro" has been of
the open, general gam bling house va
riety, and these establishments have
been effectuaily closed by the sheriff.
While it is also notorious that Skin
games" where "suckers" are fleeced,
flourish in other portions of the city.
The result of the closing up of the
general gaming places has been TO
spread the disease over the city in
hundred spots in far more malig-
nant type, where the sheriff seems
powerless to act.
ACROSS the San Pedro" is "no
saint" but it wont do to palm off the
misdeeds of others upon it.
