The Santa Fee people are now propos-
ing to content themselves with build
ing dyke for quarter of a mile west
and south of their yard tracks, which
will answer their purpose. Since the
city paid the company in deprecated
scrip when the company paid out good
solid cash, there is no Over-yearnipg
anxiety on the part of the railroad TO
have any more fnacial de alings with
the city. The railroad is "ouJ and in
Jured" 10 cents on every dollar it paid
out in behalf of tie city.
Several sharpers evidently headed
towards this city were in Las Vegas
the other day endeavoring to do up
people playing craps. They placed a
large number of strai ghtened out steel
watch springs under the table. Their
scheme, however, was frustrated before
it was ripe for execution. The two
strangers did not linger logger within
the precincts of the city after they
were discovered, but took hasty de-
parture. While it was not known ex-
actly what the scheme of the two
sharpers was, it is believed that they
intended to magnetic the springs, and
then substitute some dice magnets in
place Of those regularly used.
