there was not line which his friends
would wish to see blotted out. Robert
Browning was a poet of strange IN
equality and of extraordinary and fan
tastic methods in his composition. How

as possible forgotten-not, however, from
any moral objection to what he wrote.

good story is told at the expense OF

too good to keep. On last Sunday, pre-
liminary to his going TO church, he care
fully sealed his weekly contribution in an
envelope and placed it snugly in his
pocket. After reaching his accustomed
pew and when the time rolled around for
him to place same in the plate. he did
so without looking to ascertain whether
he deposited the correct one or not. I'm
agine his CONSERVATION and chagrin upon
his arrival home to find out that instead
of placing the right envelope in the
basket he had given his package of Gig
arctic papers. Rumor says his appetite
for dinner Immediately vanished and he
did not recover same until he had seen
the treasurer of the church and righted
things.

Phil DIVER LOSES $4,000

Instead of winning, Mr.. Dwyer lost,
steadily. Finally, he got to playing
$100 a clip, and before he knew it, so
bad was his run of luck, he had drop
ped his $4,000 winnings and was fast
digging down for more. Suddenly he
looked at his watch. He could barely
catch his train.
How much do owe your" he asked.
"Just $4,000" said the croupler.
Mr.. Dwyer called for a pen and drew
his check. Then he waved his hand at
Garfield and hurried off. But the time
he took for drawing the check cost
him the train. It steamed out of the
station as he got there. There wasn't
another till morning.
Back to the club house." said he to
the cabman.
He hadn't been gone fifteen minutes.
Garfield smiled when Mr.. Dwyer walk
ed in again, and the croupler had
seat for him in fifty. Pretty soon the
limit was off. The stacks were $1,000
now, and Mr.. Dwyer was playing them:
All other play ceased.
But the bad luck Of the early even
ing still lowered over his chair. No
matter what he played, he lost. Thous-
ands followed thousands into the bank.
Last roIlt" called the croupier.
Mr.. Dryers bet lost.
How much noW?" asked the turf
man, quietly.
"You owe 100000. sir" said the
croupier.
Again Mr.. Dwyer wrote his check,
this time for 100000, and went back
to the hotel, a loser for $4,000. Next
morning he took the train for New
York. It was the biggest loss Of the
season.
Phil Dwyer can well afford to lose.
He is worth 100000, and is without
a family.

NEW YORK, Sept Cots nobody's
business but my own what l won or
lost at Saratoga, 1 can play the wheel,
bet $50 on a horse race or take a drink
of whisky If 1 please, and nobody has
a right to say a word to me. I can
do as 1 please with my own money"
This was the answer Of Phil Dwyer,
veteran horseman and man about
town, to the questions he was asked
yesterday about the reported big losing
at Saratoga on the last day of the
meeting, when Dick Garfield took his
check for $4,000 in full payment for
one nights losses.
"Will you deny that you lost $780,
000?" was asked.
mo, 1 won't. What I do with my
own money is nobody's business"
This was all that the veteran would
say when a reporter saw him in the
afternoon at Sheepshead Bay race
track.
Mr.. Dwyer, according to his friends.
paid the losing without a murmur and
had a drink with the proprietor before
he went to bed.
This is the story as his friends tell
it; Mr.. Dwyer found it quite dull at
Saratoga in the evening after the
races, because he cared nothing for
the ordinary diversions. So night aft
er night found him at the club house,
ready to play little with the roulette
wheel.
He played along with modest stacks
for him-night after night, for an
hour or so, winning a couple of thous-
and now and then, and dropping a few
hundreds occasionally. The end of the
season found him $4,000 to the good.
On the last night he had a couple
of hours of spare time on his hands.
He WAS t0 take the train for Now VOrIx
which left late at night. So he strolled
into Canfield's and began playing q
fairly stiff game.
you see" he explained to the pro-
prietor, I'm ahead Of you for the
season."
Go ahead and win some more"
said Garfield, laughing.

HENDRICKS, w. Va, Sept. 15.-C.
D. Gillespie is a man who does things.
Obstacles which would discourage an
other are nothing to him and he de-
lights in overcoming them. He wanted
to sell liquors I'M Hendricks, but the
city council refused time after time to
grant him a license. But little thing
like that made little difference to Mr..
Gillespie. Finding that he could not
keep a saloon in Hendricks, he at once
set about the establishment Of a city
where he could sell. Purchasing
piece Of land across 1.-THE Blackwater
river from Hendricks, he proceeded to
build houses till he had enough to
accommodate over 100 persons. He Sc
cured tenants and, having established
population large enough to incorpo-
rate city, he had his town incorpo-
rated as Brooklyn Heights. AS he
owned the houses and selected his own
tenants, 1T was an easy matter for MIN
to control their votes, and with them
ne had mayor and council elected
which were in favor of granting IL
cense. The license tax was fixed at 8
nominal rate, the county court grant
ing him state license and MI. Gl!ies-
pie Is now engaged in the sale OF II
quors at his own place OF business N
his own town, and the authorltles OF
Hendricks find themselves outW1tted.
Council Was Obdurate.
For five or six years Mr.. Glllesple
had offered the city of Hendricks $l,ooo
year for liquor license, put II was
refused. Pressure was brought 10 pear

lected, and in that town, owned and
controlled entirely by himself, he
erected his saloon. not 100 yards dis
tant from the business part Of Hen
bricks. 1t took him just forty-eight
hours after his council had granted
him license to sell to erect his saloon
and start business.
Is Not Pretty Town.
Brooklyn Heights is not a city noted
for it's beauty. It's residences are of
unique type of architecture and there
is little variety among them. In fact,
they are so much alike that Mr.. Gill
lespie's patrons going home late at
night are apt to get confused as to
which is which. There are no paved
streets and none of the other modern
city conveniences. But the city is
ahead of Hendricks in one respect at
least-it has a saloon. Mr.. Gillespie's
council, under his direction, Is having
a lookup built where prisoners from
Hendricks who drink to excess or
otherwise violate the laws of Brook
lyn Heights can be confined, and he is
also having school house erected for
the children of his community. In or
der to accommodate his patrons from
Hendricks, who constitute large pro-
portion Of his customers, Mr.. Gillespie
has let the contract for a footbridge
across the Blackwater river, that those
who wish to visit his saloon may do so
with the least possible inconvenience.
The end of the bridge will be at his
doorway, while the other end will be at
the principal street in the dry town of
Hendricks.
Doing Big Business.
Finding themselves outwitted, the
city council of Hendricks has about
decided to grant license to sell in Hen
bricks, but as that is exactly what Mr..
Gillespie has been wanting it will make
little difference to him. If the license
is too high he will stay where he is
and let his customers come to him. He
is doing a tremendous business and the
people have discovered that whether
the majority approved of the Hen
bricks councils refusal to grant Ii
cense or not a large part of the people
there are glad that Gillespie got a IL
cense, even If he did have to erect his
own city to get 1t.
