Backet shops.

lie following is an extract from the
annual address OF President w. T. Baker,
of the Chicago Board of Trade, January
Al, 1897:
~fhe determination OF bucket shops
sheuldcontinue to be the aim of thieboard
They furnish the most attractive gamb-
ding bells in every city and village where
they can effect Judgement, and are more
dangerous TO public morals than other
HORNS OF gambling because of their quasi
respectabilty and immunity from police
raids. Their proprietors are, without
exception, thieves and swindlers.
Bucket shops and pool r. oms are twin
outlaws IN nearly every State in the
Union. Their united corruption fund has
enabled them To battle Justice by debauch-
cry of the constituted authority for the
Investigation and prosecution OF crime,
but they could not continue in existence
a day but for their alliance with the
Western Union telegraph company. That
company furnishes all the machinery and
all the news on which bets are laid, and
dt is the only telegraph company In the
United States that leases wires for the
private use OF bucket shops IN swndling
their patrons. The spectacle OF corpor-
alton with 800, 100000 capital paying
dividends CLEANED from the vice and crime
Not the country il one to make any Ameri-
can blush"

At the ArmOry Last Evening
AnJtes Were sold ut Panic Prices, as
Were. Also, Some OF the Gentle
men Purchnsers-LacOni

The weather was ANYTHING but favor
able for the shadow social gwen last
evening at the Light Guard Armory by
Lady Willard Hive, Ladies Of the Macca-
bees. but, nevertheless, the attendance
was very pleasing to- those in charge and
showed that the reputation the ladies
have made az entertainers had the de-
sired effect of bringing out large attend
ance at anything they may foster.
The affair was called shadow social
and many who attended were in doubt
as to where the shadow was to be, but
this was cleared up early IN the evening
and in a manner that proved very enjoy
able. Another feature OF the evening was
the giving away OF two quilts-one called
the Maccabee quilt and the other was a
fancy one. The Maccabee quilt had some
400 names worked on it in the hand writ
Sng OF the subscribers. who were taxed
dime to get their names on the quilt.
This was given away by chance and was
won by Miss Goulette. The other quilt
was won by Mrs, George Calverly,
The shadow was something entirely
new here and proved interesting. A
large white cloth was stretched across
the front OF the stage and lights arranged
$50 that the shadow of lady was cast on
the cloth. Az each lady appeared the
auctioneer sold her TO the highest bidder
among the gentlemen, and the ladies we're !
given away at prices ranging from 10 !
cents TO half a dollar. The gentleman !
who bid highest was given "A number,
which corresponded TO the one the lady
had, and he had TO hunt her up and take
ner to supper, besides paying the price he
b9d for the lady. The shadows caused
much merriment and several fond hus-
bands, who bid high for ladies', thinking
they were their wives, found out their
when il was too late, for the
shadows were deceptive.
