A Large Gain.

The deal published below was played in a
recent two-table game IN Minneapolis and
as the diagram shows resulted very differ
emily under but slightly different manage
ment. The opening lead from North's hand
at table makes the entire gain, the play
of the other three hands could not possibly
be different at either table, under any cir
cumstances.
North, at table l, takes the chance of los
immense heart suit. The play is most GER
tainly fully justified as the hand contains
no sure re-entry card, his only possible card
of re-entry being the singleton king of
clubs. which is Of very doubtful value. espe-
cially when most needed.
At table 2, North was evidently afraid he
would lose his ace, for he led it at once at
trick 8. He must have felt very sad when
East captured his king Of clubs and he saw
his five stiff hearts "die with their boots

WOMAN GAVE R0BBER SAVINGS,
Masked Highwayman Visited the
Home of Mrs. J. III. WhitmOre.

With robbers hand cutching her
throat, Mrs. John H. Whitmore, who lives
at No. 1913 South Seventh street, says she
was compelled to hand over s45. the savings
of weeks, to a masked man who entered the
house just after her husband left the home
TO go, to a nearby store at 7:30 O'Clock last
night.
The man had no weapon. she says. and
only a white handkerchief tied about his
face was used disguise. He seemed
familiar with the surroundings and ac-
ccmplished the robbery hurriedly. The
Whitmores live in rooms on the second floor
at the above number, and the entrance is by
a back stairway. The robber managed to
get in and out of the house without any one
seeing him except Mrs. Whitmore. who was
SO badly frightened that she was not able
10 give the police very good description
OF the man.
Whitmore is employed at the American
Steel Works In Granite City. 1t being Sat-
urday night. the robber evidently thought
that his victim would have money about the
honse. but ii was not Whitmore's pay night.
The money taken constituted the wife's
savings from her husbands allowances. and
II was hidden behind a picture. where no
one except the wife knew it was. Mrs.
Whitmore says she at first handed the man
purse containing s.. but that the highway
man insisted that she give him all that she
had. Under his threats she complied.
The woman was not injured by the expe-
rience, and besides a nervous shock did not
seem TO suffer any i'll effects.
