PIpEY "REMINISCENCES.
Midnight Stories Told at the Army

The boys were taking their midnight
lunch and the talk as usual, was horsey.
In the course Of time it drifted from pipe"
stories OF yesterday and to-day to those
sf the old days when Gloucester and Gut
tenburg were in their prime aud the merry
rattle OF the drum was heard at Brighton
Beach.
The professor had just been speaking
Of the bet Of SO, 600 that "Pittsburg
Phil" made when Domino beat Clifford.
Phil had his chips down on the great son
OF Bramble -Dutchess and needless to
say lost.
That's not half as bad as losing a 600
10 j combination by one horse,' spoke up
one Of the jocks, land that very thing hap
peued TO a well-knOwn secretary of the
Beach. IL you fellows don't believe me,
you can see the ticket TO this day. A 4 to

tackled the ticket up on one Of the posts in
the betting ring

said the Lobster. Its not a marker to
the hard luck one of the telegraph opera

HE wrote a combination which figured
300 TO /. 1t wound up with a horse
who looked to have bis field cinched, and
was made a ! to 4 shot. He jumped
to the front and going down the back
stretch was galloping out in front, ten
lengths to the good, when-biffl and he
went down in front with a broken leg.
The worst part OF il was that the
Dutchman who wrote the combination Of
fered the operator S225 before the race
was run if he would give up the ticket
He was told to go to a warmer climate,
and so saved himself the 1925.
Speaking OF odds-On favorites going
down do YOU fellows remember the day
at Guttenburg that Miss Belle was made
8 i 10 20 shot and was beaten out by
Panway7"
As they all remembered it well, the
speaker went on:
well, there was a fellow in Brooklyn
named L0Zier who was stuck on playing
at those kind of odds, and he laid $20,-
600 against 81 900 in Carley BIS book
OF course he lose, but he was game, and
win 81 800 against SO, 600 on Kirkover
IN the very next race.

up another, but the luckiest chap ever
knew was q baker up in Third avenue

He had a speaking acquaintance with
one Of the bookies at Brighton and used to
bother the lie out OF him to give him tips
The bookie thought he would shake him
by steering him onto a dead 'un.

Annie F. Wilson, Saturday, is entirely
sane and in good health, so long as he
remains in the Government Hospital for the
Insane at Anacostia, but liable when at
liberty 10 become a mailman with hOmi-
cidal tendencies.
Although they spent thirteen years Of
happy married life together he now man
ifests an unexplained repugnance for her.
He is in the hospital OF his own motion,
and she understands that, being on the
retired list he now purposes to leave this
country and go TO Europe In that case
she would be left wholly without means.
She has neither father nor mother living,
and is not trained for any calling that
would afford her living. In addition,
she has the support and education OF their
ten-yearold daughter, Jane, TO look after.
She therefore asks for an order OF court
directing that her husband who draws
S131.25 month and has S4OO to $500
accumulated, shall pay reasonable sum
for the support Of his family while the
csae is pending, and that upon a hearing it
be decreed that a suitable sum be set
aside from his income TO maintain his
wife and provide for the proper care OF
their child. She asks that the little girl
be left in her custody.

NOT ROBBED BY BOYS.
Denial of Newspaper Theory of IL
Moy Ung Affair

Denial of a Newspaper Theory Of the
Moy Ung Affair
A Sensational story, with scare
head, !" published in a local morning news
paper Saturday morning, stated that the
robbery OF Moy Ung's laundry, corner
Of Ninth and East Capitol streets, about
two weeks ago, had been committed by
little school boys, and that the police
had arrested Frank Stansberry. twelve
years Of age. who, the publication stated,
was suspected OF having engineered the
affair"
The Times published, soon after the
robbery, an authentic, full aud exclusive
account or the operations of a trio OF
desperate Chinese highbinders, who held
up Quong Sang Lung, the importer, on
Pennsylvania avenue, and who the police
believed had also robbed Moy ing.
The morning newspaper referred TO also
said that young Stansberry had confessed
to the crime, and the police had implicated
several other lads, pupils IN the East Wash
ingtOn public schools, and the sons of "a
prominent broker, department clerk" and
Others 1t was also stated that the Stans-
berry boy and his colleagues in hOusebreak-
ing, would be arraigned in the police court
10 answer the serious charge on last Satur-
day.
4ucic was no HucH dTTdlgniDe0t or V1G
boys on Saturday, nor viii there be. StanS.
berry alone was arrested and was released,
as Lieut.. Heffner, OF the Ninth precinct, in
his good judgment, saw there was nothing
in the charge of suspicion which had been
placed opposite his name on the blotter.
Inquiry at No. station last evening
developed the fact that there was nothing
in the school boy feature OF the Moy Ung
robbery, and no further action was con-
templated
In the meantime the boys parents are
indignant at the accusations made against
their little sons, and those policemen who
are familiar with the operations OF the
Chinese thieves in this city agree with
the exclusive article in The Times that
Moy Ung's laundry was robbed by these
and not by public school boys
