THE SLOT MACHINES.

The slot machines must go. This is
the verdict issued recently by the au-
thorities of Davenport. In compliance
Herewith considerable activity has
been noticeable about the saloons, cigar
stores and other places of business,
in getting this part of their furniture
out of the way. 1t is reported that
Saturday mornings train robbery is
the direct cause which led up to the
issuance of the order. No matter
what was the reason for the decision
that these gambling devises should
go and the issuance of the order, the
people Of Davenport are certainly to
be congratulated on the fact that they
are to be free from their demoralizing
effects.
In this connection 1t would be as
well for Ottumwa to ask itself a few
questions with reference to this insidi-
Gus evil which is gradually drawing a
great number Of it's men and boys in
to the vortex of the gambling habit.
The slot machine is altogether bad,
and the more so because of it's appar-
ent harmlessness. 1t is to be found in
nearly every cigar store, billiard hall
and other places of rendezvous. AT
first, it may be, the victim puts in his
nickel as a matter of curiosity. Then
there comes time when the player
makes small winning and thereafter
| the desire to win is always connected
with the playing of the machine. In
short these machines make profession.
al gamblers and start many boys on
the road to ruin. They are truly in
struments of the devil.
Not one good word can be said fol
them. They put temptation in the
youths way, teach him to squander his
money and make of him a gambler
Ottunlwa people should arouse to the
realization of the evil that is being
done in this city through these agen
cies and should demand their removal

After the observance of the Gay in
1854 in celebration of the return of
peace no national Thanksgiving day
was appointed until 1889, when Presi.
dent Washington in compliance with
the recommendation of congress set
apart a day to celebrate the adoption
of the constitution. Another procla--
nation was issued by Washington in
1895 as the result of the suppression
of an Instruction. Madison was the
next president to set apart such a day
which he did in April, 1915, in com
memoration of the treaty Of peace at
the close of the second war with Eng
land.
During the early years of the last
century. various religious organiza-.
tons appointed days of thanksgiving
and many different local customs pre-
vailed. The day was not regularly re-
commended by the governor Of New
York until 1917, and came to be Gus.
tom In the south at a later date. In
1856 Governor Johnson of Virginia, re.
commended the observance of the day
but in 1857 Governor Wise, on being
requested to designate a day fol
thanksgiving by some church society
refused to do SO, claiming that he was
not authorized to interfere in relig
ious matters. The following year
1858, eight governors of the southern
states issued proclamations.
During the sixties we came to the
time when the custom was revived
throughout the nation and came to be
a fixed part of our national life. In
1862 and 1863 President Lincoln issued
"a proclamation recommending that
the people Of the country join in
Thanksgiving for the success that had
come to the armies of the north. In
the latter year and in 1864, he also re.
commended that day be devoted tc
thanksgiving for the abundant har-.
vests. Since that time this day has
been an annual occasion. Each sue.
ceeding president has issued a procla-
nation at the end of the harvest time
and custom has fixed the time on the
last Thursday in November.
1t may be noted that the observance
of these days has been with appropri-
ate religious services and this feature
of Thanksgiving is still preserved. The
big turkey dinners that are always
connected with the day and the gath
ering together of relatives and friends
with many other additional features
has entered into the observance of the
day through the lapse of years.
That nation such as ours should
set apart national day of thanksgiv,
ing, is indeed most fitting, and the uni
versal manner in which the people
join in its observance is indicative OF
their appreciation and gratitude for
the many blessings that come to them
as citizens of this great common
wealth,

ACTOR HAD A
TALKING DOG
Stories by James Glenroy,
The Man With the
Green Gloves

James Glenroy ''The Man With the
Green Cloves who has for the past
week been delighting the audiences at
Dockstader's Theatre with his dron
sayings, is just as funny of the stage
as on, and is one of the most popular
men in the profession. In speaking of
some OF his experiences last night in
his dressing room, he told a story about
theatre in the South in which he was
playing some years ago. 1t was his
first day in the town, and he had new
song he wished to try with the orches-'
ira before the evening performance. He
went to the theatre and asked the NAM
ager if the leader of the orchestra was
there. The manager said he was not,
and would not be there until o'clock
unless it rained. When asked by the
ast0nished actor why the rain would
hurry his coming the manager replied
ne drove the street sprinkler, and if 1t
rained he would not have to go over his
route.
He also told another story about a
stranded actor, who was a veniriloqpist.
He went into a saloon, accompanied by
his dog. He ordered a whiskey sour for
himself, and turning to the dog asked,
What win you have?' To the aston
ishmant of the bartender, the dog
seemed to say, GIVE me the same. "
The proprietor strolled in shortly after,
and the dispenser Of drinks called him
aside and told him of the wonderful
dog. The owner approached the ven-
| triloquist and said: Il hear you have
dog that can talk The man replied
that ne had He was then asked hcw
/ long he had owned the canine, and
turning to- the dog, he seid, How long
have you bean with me- Bill" The
dog said, About two years" The pro-
prietor offered to buy him on the spot
for $3.50, but the actor said he would
not dispose of him for less than $500
The dog was watching the proceeding
and looking at his master was heard tc
say: you aren't going to- sell me, are
you, Tom?" The man replied he need
ed the money and guessed he would
have to go You don't really mean
it," the dog seemed to say. Aftel
pocketing the money the man replied
Yes, goodbye, old fellow; you have
been good to me, hut you are better
off now," and he started to leave tho
place, followed by the dog, who said
If you leave me here I'll never speal
another word" and he never did, bu
the stranded actor go out of town.

The heavy fog of last night and this

both railway and river traffic in this

the heaviest fogs that has enveloped
the river for years, and as a conse-
quence all shipping was tied up and
railroad trains have been running late
