SHUT DOWN AGAIN
TAPE GAMES CLOSED ON AN Or
DER FROM CHIEF GLASS
The Proprietors Are Discouraged With
Fighting the Cases in the Courts
and Will Remain Closed

AS a result of the recent opinion given
by the city attorney that the tape games s
are illegal. the decision Of Justice Nor
rison to the contrary Notwithstanding.
the establishments have again been noti-
fed by Chief Glass that they must close.
and. in compliance with the order, none
Of the places were running yesterday.
The proprietors state that they will not
again fight the case through the courts
because the expense of another suit
coming directly after the one Just fir,-
ished is so great that their business will
not justify them in taking up the mat
ter. Instead they expect to remain
closed or else substitute genuine Quota
tons or markets in place of the ficti-
tious quotations now reeled out of tame
machine.
A lew weeks ago, when the tape games
were closed on an opinion by Assistant
District Attorney Joe Chambers. a test
was made of the case against Preacher
Frank Burch. The case was submitted
to the court on an agreed statement of
iacts and the matter was taken under
advisement for several weeks by Justice
Morrison Finally a decision was rem
dered that the tape games were not in
Violation of law; that they did not come
within the statute against gambling.
but were in effect legitimate business
enterprises. Immediately after the de-
cision was rendered Burch and Fitz-
gerald, proprietors of the principal es-
adjustments, reopeped their places of
business.
The police commissioners were not
satisfied with Justice Morrison,s ruling
and asked City Attorney Dunn for an
opinion on the question in order to de-
eide whether it was necessary to pass
special city ordinance to cover the tape
game operations. The city attorney diff
fered with Justice Morrison and ex-
pressed the belief that the disputed
games are covered by the state law pro-
hibiting gambling.
While no action was taken orr the oues-
tion in open meeting it is probable that
decision was reached in executive ses-
sion and Chief Glass was instructed to
notify the proprietors of the tape games
that unless they closed up for good they
would be further prosecuted.
None of the bucket shops generally
designated as stock ard grain exchanges
have been molested and are still running

A Bee Was Kept

A girl from town is staying with some
country cousins who live at farm. On
the night of her arrival she finds, to her
modification, that she is ignorant of all
sorts of things connected with farm life
which to her country cousins are mat
ters of everyday knowledge. She fancies
they seem amused at her ignorance.
At the breakfast table the following
morning she sees on the table dish Of
fine honey, whereupon she thinks she
has found an opportunity of retrieving
her humiliating experience of the night
before, and of showing her country cous-
irs that she knows something of country
life after all. So, looking at the dish of
honey, she says carelessly: "Ah! 1 see
you keep bee."-Pearson's Weekly.
