Besides the five prisoners, gambling par

eral thousand chips. many packs of cards
and about $50 in small change were taken
away by the raiders as well as the ac-
count books of the establishment. The
latter were kept i'm very crude form, but
an unexplained item of expense in the sum
of $500 led Mr. Moss and Justice Jerome
to say that this item might prove an i'm
portant link in the chain of evidence
against the mysterious John Doe. who IS
alleged to give protection from police in
references to the gamblers of the city.
The raid taking place as it did in the
heart of the financial district. created a
great deal of excitement. Justice Jerome
held the prisoners in sums of $1,000 each
for examination next week and they were
committed.
After spending a few hours in the
Tombs, the prisoners furnished bonds

himself so badly with his claws in try

able whiskers are then removed with

1t is stated that the statesmen of
the fowery kingdom are considering
the advisability of altering the Chinese
law which requires Mongolians to wear
cues. The Chinese, it is. said, ore
their hair American fashion some 300
years ago. at which time they likewise
wore garments similar to those in use
in this country today. With a new
emperor came an alteration in the
two fashions, and ever since cues and
blouses haze been quite the proper
thing.
Now there is a great agitation for a
change back to the old style. The Chi
nese are of a practical turn of mind
and say that too much time is requir-
ed to dress their long braids. There is
considerable objection to the style now
in vogue, and so persistent for a
change has become the demand that it
is likely the law establishing the style
of headdress will be altered. 1t is
stated that the Chinese will not wear
their hair long, but that their heads
will be kept shaver.

A Democratic
. = Emperor

Like many who live in the rarified
atmosphere of courts, Emperor Francis
Joseph enjoys nothing better than a
glimpse into the lives of his humblest
subjects. So. in order to come closer
in touch with the peasants, he has
fallen into the habit of walking out
alone every Sunday afternoon. Usual
Iy he turns his back upon the city and
strolls out upon one of the country
roads, where he almost invariably finds
a companion going the same way, a
simple tiller of the soil. When the en-
peror's questions regarding the details
of life in the work-a-day world bring
down no suspicion of his identity:
when he is regarded merely as a kind,
chatty stranger, til 4 he is pleased. On
one occasion an c nan having lis
tened to the sovereign's talk with a
group of laborers, without knowing
who he was, followed Francis Joseph
as he retraced his steps to the city.
Gradually the old man edged up along
side. Hello, stranger, you going up
