Two Clever Sharpers Clean
Out the Gamblers on the
Bay

Crowds of the sporting fraternity were
standing in close consultation on Thir-
feenth street yesterday afternoon. The
main topic of conversation was two midi
Viduals who had stepped into the Stenger
club rooms ana after short but high
play against the crap game, won $500
bankrupting the same. While in the
midst of their conjectures as to how the
Ghing was done-what kind of work"
was used. The two sharpers came up and
made their way into the reception saloon.
They stepped up to the game and the
tallest one handed the dice manipulation a
twenty dollar gold piece at the same
time drawing from one Of his other pock-
cts a canvas bag, such as is used by bank
sing institutions for carrying silver. The
one that did the playing asked for the
dice and commenced TO shake. He was
being closely watched by twenty pairs of
eyes, and though he was winning every
bet, no ona could detect anything wrong
The manager of the game asked him once
90 throw the dice little further, to which
the clever gameSter Smilingly consented
In less than fifteen minutes he had about
SEQ, all the silver that was in sight
The dealer called for the prOprie-
tor To bring more money, but
che latter said. mo more, they have won
enough With that they cody bagged
their money and left the place, followed
by large crowd who were wondering who
would be done up next. In front Of the
Senate saloon the pair halted and held a
short consultation, while the crowd surged
into the saloon and informed the crap
dealer that the invincibles would be 10
shortly and bankrupt the game. Still.

Thomas G. Newman, secretary. The
name chosen for the club was the Fair
haven Lawn Tennis Club. A committee,
consisting of Warner J. Duhring, J. L.
Easton and DR.. Darling was appointed to
select grounds and to ascertain the cost
OF fitting up the same. A committee, con-
sisting of Il. j. Newman, j. II. BlOedel, j.
A. Wyllie was appointed to draft a con-
stitution and bylaws. The meeting adj
journed subject to the call of the chair
man.
The item published in the HERALD
yesterday morning regarding the trouble
in society over the organization of a
tennis club, created no end of comment
yesterday, and from present indications
IL seems as II society on the bay bids fair
to be disrupted by the organization Of two
tennis clubs. The following commnnica
tiOn was received at the HERALD office
last evening and in Justice to the "other
side" it is published i'm full. The writer
becomes sarcastic, but his point regarding
the small number of the Fairhayen dele
cation that opposed the two club idea, does
not seem well taken, in view of the num-
Der attending the meeting last night, The
HERALD has no interest i'm the cOntrO-
verSy, but backs the Fairhaven club
against the field, and ventures to assert
that the championship pennant will fly in
its tennis court.
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD; | take
the liberty of correcting an error in your
accOun in yesterdays paper of the New
Whatcom meeting of the Crescent lawn
tennis club.
The conduct of one or two of the. Fair
haven delegation has been criticised on
the score of good taste in bluntly dcclin-
ing in advance to join the common club,
without even waiting to hear the report
Of of tiNn uanFl annn from
each city, which had been appointed to
try and find a site for the grounds that
would be acceptable to the people of both
ends of the bay. But | think your re-
porter is too severe on them when he
says: After wrangling on this and
other propositions for some little time,
the Fairhaven delegation withdrew from
the meeting" The Fairhaven delegation
did not withdraw from the meeting so
far as | have been able TO learu, not a
single one left before the dance which
succeeded the meeting. | would
also abS c sTggest that even tho though
the delegation from this city visited
such an expression as he has used, he
should not make 1t apply generally to the
polite and courteous people Of FairhaVen
who were there in such large numbers.
When these self-chOsen representatives
presume to speak for the people of Fair
haven, one is reminded Of the historic
Three Tailors of Tooly Street" who sent
a petition TO the king which read, 1--WE,
the people of England"
The first meeting Of the club was held
in Fairhaven; its second in New What
com. Its president is Mr. Reginald Jones,
of New Whatcom: its vice. president, Mr..
G. f Warner, of Fairhaven; its treasurer,
Mr., Will +. Pettibone, of New Whatcom:
its secretary, Mr.. d. Daun Egan, of Fair

Lenhardt's Trial

Lenhardt the milkman. who was
brought up before Judge Broyles for com
hitting an assault upon Mrs. Miller, had
a trial Yesterday. The courtroom was
crowded with neighbors who were curious
as to the outcome of the trial. The testi-
mony and cross examination caused con-
siderable amusement among those present
as Lenhardt speaks in a very broken
manner. Judge j. j. Weissenburger ap-
peared for the plaintiffs, Miller and wife,
and Attorney r. j. Hill represented the
posing attorneys on several points had
hot controversy with odds slightly In
favor OF Attorney Hill. Attic conclusion
Of the trial Attorney Hill raised a point

Americana In the Riviera.

The British Medical journal of Decem-
ber 5, 1891, says: The New York Medical
Record, with characteristic enterprise, has
commissioned a member of its staff, Dr.
Wendt, to visit the Riviera and the health
resorts of the south of France in order to
study and to report on the healthy condi-
tions and the sanitary Cor insanitary) ar
rangements, municipal and domestic, of the
towns and hotel at such places as Cannes,
Nice, Pau, Hyeres, Mentone, Monaco, San
Reno, Alassio, Bordighera, Florence and
Naples. He will find much to exercise his
industry and acumen-much to blame,
something to encourage, and many causes
for warning to his countrymen. American
visitors to the Continent are particularly
liable to typhoid-of which the frequently
recurring and sad examples are probably
the main cause of this journalistic tour of
inspection. Part of this special liability
probably arises from their habit of drinking
iced water. So long as, following the ad-
vice of DR.. Herman Weber, they confne
themselves to natural mineral waters of
recognized purity, they are safe. But these
are not always at hand, and all do not yet
understand that icing or aerating polluted
water detracts nothing from it's risks, and
that even ice itself made from impure water
is a source of danger. Where only ''local
drinking water" is to be had in the Riviera
or anywhere on the Continent of Europe, it
should always be first boiled and then
filtered, as DR.. Covers advises.

without the addition of spangles upon the
chenille. These nets are an improvement
on the Russian nets of two winters ago, and
ladies will prefer to any of the foregoing
the tinsel gauzes which are striped with
graduated lines of pink, green, black, amber.
ETC., and are threaded betwixt the stripes
with lines of silver or gold. These are
most charming Brocades are really good
in quality, and the prices are very reason
able, so that women who prefer to see
themselves in rich stutfs might, without
needing the cost, purchase ball dress in
some delicate shade of silk, and trim it with
the chiffon.

fills this place. 1t is of black velvet, so
fashionable this season, and the waistcoat,
which shows in the lower part, is heavily
embroidered. 1t may be made of color to
match the skirt, if preferred.
This coat is intended to take the place,
when extra warmth is needed, of the cloth
or silk waist which belongs to the skirt.
On the cold day, or when one is a bit under
the weather-infuenza is coming, they say
such garment may mean all the differ
ence between sickness and health. Think
of the draughty halls you will visit, to
patronize church fairs, and all the other
half-heated places you will go into before
the season is over, in spite OF weather and
health, and you will be persuaded that you
can't get on without velvet Louis coat.
Again the little mink and sable and Per-
sian lambs are shown just as they are when
alive, and to be put right about ones neck.
They are fashionable, not so very expensive
and with muf to match make very
pretty finish to plain coat. Apropos to

they may be certsinly appreciated - de-

good object to exercise ingenuity and orig

Ardent Appeal Of Two Noted Lawyers. 3
When men of honor appeal to the highest
tribunal of the land to extend time of ac-
tion, it signifies that the intentions are pure
and actuated by noble motive, and above
all, worthy of due consideration, especially
when the case is argued in language of elo-
quence by the brightest and most spotless
attorneys of the Manhattan Island bar. The
time being at an end Saturday night, ends
all further argument.

at an end Saturday at 10 P. NJ, and all the
remaining overcoats, suits and pantaloons
for men, youths, boys and children will be

dollar This is the final notice of the great
est sacrifice sale on record.
