The "Layouts" OubIaW@u An Cno WINDY
City Were Taken Across the Indiana State
Line, and Now 10000 "sports" Make
Daily Pilgrimages to Roby.
That America possesses a rival to the
world famous Monte Carlo is perhaps not
generally known. Such is nevertheless
the case, according to the New York Re
corder, though the new courts of the god
dess of fortune are as yet only few weeks
old In the little Hoosier town of Roby are
some of the largest gambling establish
ments to be found anywhere, within the
United States 1t is estimated that no less
than 10000 persons visit the town daily for
the purposeof playing at some of the games
of chance which are being run without
even pretense at cOncealment.
Roby is situated just over the Indiana
line, east of South Chicago 1t sprang into
prominence a few years ago by the estab-
lishment of a race course watch soon be-
came one of the most popular near the
Windy City With the influx of racing
men and sports came several shining lights
in the pugilistc world. AS it was difficult
to arrange anything but rather tame box
ing bouts within the city limits of Chicago,
an athletic club was organized in Roby, and
fistic encounters were of weekly occurrence.
Meeting with successful these ventures, the
Columbian Athletic club, as this organiza-
ton was called, erected a colossal arena
about year ago to accommodate their
large audiences
The arena was, however, never used The
sheriff of Lake county, in which Roby is
situated, put an end to both smuggling
matches and racing This action practical
ly killed the club. A few weeks ago Chief
of Police Brennan acting under the in
structions of Mayor Hopkins, closed every
gambling house in Chicago and has COM
PEELED them to remain closed ever since.
Several of the gambling fraternity whostill
held stock in the Columbian Athletic club
met and decided to move to Roby, opening
establishments there.
In three days no less than 80 'layouts,"
including roulette, faro, keno, craps, byron
omus, hazard and various other games, were
shipped to Roby and arranged in the arena
of the club Gamblers who were not mem
bers of the club FASTENED to secure rooms
and houses in other parts of the town.
The arena is just outside the town limits
Oh land owed by the club 1t is an enor-
nous wooden structure, nearly circular in
form and painted dull brown One end
is reserved for Offices, baths and a few
sleeping apartments. The remainder of the
building is arranged like huge amphithe-
alter, with tiers of seats around the sides.
In the center of this amphitheater are the
gambling booths. There are no ''lookouts"
to be passed before one may enter this
gigantic den. The heavy door swings as
readily for the novice as for the professional
gambler, and no questions are asked so
long as the visitors conduct themselves in
an orderly manner
Within the little booths or rallied inclo-
sures are games of faro, roulette, "Old Hy,'
craps keno, etc. The faro fends seem to

His "ioven Text.

The story is related of bishop who
came to one.of our state prisons and
was told: No need of you here, sir.
We have eight preachers safely locked
up who are Brought out each Sabbath
to minister to their fellow prisoners. ,
Ifsthis appear doubtful tale, it can be
varied with the following abouta young
lady Sunday school teacher who has a
class Of rather bright boys averaging
between Z and years.
Recently she requested each pupil to
come on the following Sunday with
some passage of Scripture bearing upon
love. The lads needed the request and
in turn recited their verses bearing upon
that popular subject, such as Love
your enemies, " - Little children, love
one another, etc. The teacher said to

The Paying Teller's story.

''In our bank, you know" said the
paying teller, 1--WE never allow any ciga-

is to see that nobody comes into the bank
with one of the vile things burning.
Well, the other morning young fellow
came in with a note he wanted certified.
He was nice, country looking sort of a
boy and must have been new at his bust
ness, as he wandered all around the bank
before he struck my window. But as
soon as he came up to me caught the
smell of cigarette. Somebody is smok-

he, too, was charged with being common

things, person who frequents any place
where gambling is permitted or carried on.
To frequent place, according to the legal
meaning of the word, is to visit that place
more than once within space of two years.
The clergyman, having visited the arena
