MISS DAVENPORT WANTS THE CASINO

1t was reported Yesterday that Miss Fanny paven-
port anxious to obtain possession Of the Casino
and TO become us manager. The suspicion That
the Casino cub Is short Of funds has been rif" 81
late and Miss Davenport was led to believe that
It would soon be possible 10 get control of the
building. She has had consultations with two or
three persons connected with the club and with III"
estate but nothing definite has yet been done and
nothing be done at present The club has not
given any notice that II is unable to carry out It's
plans. and the rent from the club will not be due
in several weeks yet. No proceedings to dspossess
the present tenants can begin ill the rent mas
fallen due and the club has failed to pay II. There
IL no doubt that Miss Davenport wants the ca
sine but a good deal Of history has often passed
into the records OF that house In less time than
the asno cub stu has before II. and almost any
thing may happen.

MENTIONED As A POSSIBLE ASSIST

ate SmugGier Probably Disposed Of
some Illicit Freight.

a late San Francisco Chronicle
has local item i'll which Opium
Brown, so well known here, figures
prominently. The article is in the
shape of an interview i'll which
gentleman says:
During my residence in Victoria
and the surrounding towns last
October saw great deal of the
band of smugglers who have their
headquarters along the Sound. 1t
was there | met Billy Stewart, who
is known in Honolulu as Opium
Brown" and Jack Forbes, alias
Jack Regain. These men are we'll
known opium and Chinese Snug
glers, and are the owners of the
South Bend. 1t was they, you re-
member, wh1 brought down
twenty Chinese two years ago to
be landed in this city. 1t was al
legged that when the schooner
reached the heads the captain found
out in some mysterious manner that
the authorities were watching for
him, and as be did not care to re-
turn with the Chinese he ordered
them all thrown overheard. That
was the current story.
AT the time there was a good
deal of talk over the mysterious dis
appearance Of the Mongols, and
since then the Chinese of Victoria
refused to hire either Stewart or
Forbes to transport coolies"
Both men are notorious SNUG
glers and swindlers, and are wanted
by the authorities of Seattle and
other Northwestern towns. For a
number Of years they have been
openly engaged in opium and Chi
nese smuggling and have succeeded
in accommodating considerable
money"
The Chronicles informant CON
tinues with circumstantia story
to the effect that Stewart and Regain
loaded the South Bend with arms
and opium for the islands.

FOOTBALL INVENTED IN CHINA.
The Game Was Also Known in Japan
1000 Years Ago.

According to Stewart Culin, the
curator of the museum of archi-
ology of the University of Penn
sylvania, football originated with
with those beginners of everything
the Chinese. Mr.. Culin is making
an exhaustive study of games,
ancient and modern, and has a
curious and ancient drawing show
ing a parsonage in the dress of a
prime minister playing football
with kuge, or noble, and two of
of their chamberlains.
The time is somewhere in the
tenth or eleventh century, but long
before then the game was cultivated
as an exercise suitable for the
training of soldiers. About the
eight century, it was introduced
into Japan, where it became very
popular. From these two coun-
tries it spread over the entire
world.
