that 1t doesn't want the gamblers who
have been driven out Of the city. But
the promoters Of the enterprise say
that they have no fear of such an IN
fortunate accident, since no farmers
or residents of the adjoining districts
will be allowed to enter and make
bets. This gambling institution is for
the exclusive benefit O. of Chicagoans.
The big pOolroom is surrounded by
high st0ckade, and entrance is gained
through we'll guarded gate. The SEN
tinels know, probably through long and
sharp experience, the faces Of many
officers of the law, and all suspected
persons receive the cold shoulder.
Among the assets Of the gambler who
runs the place are number Of Great
Dane dogs, and after the departure
of the gamblers for the city these
brutes are turned loose. The gam
bling house is then more than ever
a good place to keep away from. The
dogs also act as a wholesome hint to
Investigators and curiosity seekers.
A Chicago saloon keeper has attract
ed much notice by inviting ministers
to come to his place and hold services.
He says that the frequenters Of his
resort will not go to the churches, and,
if the ministers are in earnest in their
work of reclamation, they should go
to the saloons and preach. According
to his open invitation to the preachers,
he will guarantee respectful treatment
to them. If reform can be accom-
plished, the church will have his aid,
for he claims to be sincere in this
movement.
While the Chicago ministers are unit
ing to fight the dives, Chicago's mayor
says that they are not as bad as they
are painted. He declares that the
worst resorts have been cleaned out,
but his opponents claim that crime
is unquestionably on the increase.
