any considerable extent. In st. Paul

called for, while in this city thus far only
1900 have been ordered The govern
ment offcers, however, are looking
sharply after the matter. Every man
who has q deck Of cards for sale will have
10 pnt q 2-cent stamp upon il, and If the
cards are sold without the stamp it will
mean 8 penalty Of $500 Or . years i'm
prisonment. T. is thought that Mime
