that gamblers literally rob the men who occasion.
ally take dyer'' at their games by q variety Of
trickery that people on the outside can never
learn for the reason that the sport has too much
sense to break up his business by letting 1.-THE pro-
ducers' into the secret. So. whenever you hear
of the gamblers luck and the gentleman.s bad fort
une just put it down that the gentleman has
been robbed. don't care whether the play was
at Monte Carlo. in the gilded palaces of New York
in the dingy dives of the frontier. Gambling is
the same the world over and all gamblers are
alike. The man who wants to play and risk his
money on the law of chance can do so only in
circle Of friends and not in a gambling house.
We do not agree with him that gambling
among friends is ION the square," 1t may
be at times, but cheating is one of the laws
of gambling. and the law must take it's
course in this just as it does in the case of
the poor who get caught in crime.

QUEER SMOKING CONTEST.


Account Of Ono of Georges rvs Little
PIeasantnessos.
The wild recklessness and extrava-
gance Of George Nv. have become prov
erbial in history. During one OF his
carouses shortly after his coronation
he, in seni-intoxfcated state, com
manded that six Of the palace chamber
maids be brought before him. The or
der was obeyed, whereupon the king,
turning to his associates, asked them to
make wagers upon the ladies as to
which one would smoke the most cigars
in half an hour.
Upon hearing what was expected Of
them two or three Of the maids en-
dsavored to beat hasty retreat from
the royal presence, but were prevented
from doing so by the attendants. A
box of mild cigars was produced and
each chambermaid hidden to light and
smoke one.
The ludicrous manner in which most
Of them attempted to light the weeds
caused the most boisterous merriment
among the courtiers, in which the mon
arch heartily Joined. With the excep-
ton of one maid the rest tried to light
their cigars without first cutting Off
the end.
Only one succeeded in struggling
through whole cigar, but she had to
be removed in a fainting state. The
others refused to smoke more than half
of theirs, to the great annoyance of the
ixir0 and his courtiers.rPearson'

LIVERPOOL, March 29.-The coroneris
jury investigating into the deaths OF
the woman and four children whose
bodies were found buried under the
6oor of Dinham villa. at Rain Hill,
continued its investigation yesterday.
Among the witnesses who testified was
Bertha Deening. a sister of tho
murdered woman, who is the wife Of
Albert Deening. brother of the
murderer.
The jury returned a verdict of will.
full murder against Deening. In their
verdict they severely criticised the &C
ton Of the Rain Hill police, who, al
though everybody was suspicious OF
Deening. took no action against him.

1t has been arranged that the landing

PARIS. March 29.-The excitement
caused by the explosion at the resi-
dence of NJ, Bulot, at 80 Rue Clochy,
has in no way abated. Some persons
say that the time is rapidly approach
ing when the people will depend no
longer upon the police for protection.
but will take the law into their own
hands and rid the city Of anarchists by
hanging them TO the most convenient
tree or pole that presents itself.
Stringent orders have been given to
the chief Of police to take into custody
anyone whose actions or language show
that they arc in sympathy with the
men who delight in calling themselves
teriorists. II is the general opinion
that instead Of exciting terror the an
archists will arouse such . wave Of in
dignation that they will be themselves
the greatest sufferers.

Grain and Fruit In Excellent Condltioa n
Kansas-A Large Yield Indicated.
TOPEKA, Kan. March 30.-The Kansas
Farmer will publish tomorrow reports
from every county in Kansas showing
the condition of wheat, the progress
of spring fruit and general condition
Of live stock. These reports show
q remarkably favorable condition
for the farmers. While the fall was
unfavorable for seeding. q good winter
has brought up the average 50 that tho
wheat yield will be much better than
was anticipated. Thirty counties in
the Southeast and Northeast, which
show an average prospect Of little
more than half a wheat crop,
have neve; had in recent years
large areas of wheat and have
never been depended upon for it. The
acreage in these counties has been
greatly reduced as compared with last
year, and the present prospect il
placed at so per cent. Twenty-Five
central counties show an average wheat
prospect of IS per cent of the usual
crop. Forty-three western counties
show an increased prospect over the
big crops of last year of from 10 to 20
per cent, which, with continuation
of favorable (. editions, gives q
prospect in the entire state
of S. per cent No Hessian fly or
other pest has been reported from any
section and the small amount of wheat
winter killed is confined to the Eastern
counties. Owing to the unusual wet
weather spring work has been greatly
delayed and only about twenty per
cent of the oats have been sown, which
reduces the oats prospect, but will
cause the largest acreage in corn the
state has ever known, as an unusual
amount of fall blowing was done in
the Western counties.
Everything is reported fav orable for
all kinds of fruit, except peaches,
which have not been SO generally win
ter killed as was supposed. From all
stations in the state the ground is re-
ported soaked, which makes the cOndi-
ton for general farming favorable.
The reports covering live stock show
that all kinds of stock are in good con-
dition, March being the only severe
month. A sufficient abundance of good
rough feed to last until grass is re-
ported throughout the state. Work
animals are in extra average condition
and no disease prevails.
