IChieagO Reeord-Heraldl
Most every day or two we hear that
Gates has made lot
By cornerin' the corn somehow and
getin' short ones caught;
He makes a million dollars just as easy
as you please
He can do it plsyIn' poker or by buyin'
mp the peas:
He scoops in lines of railroads just for
practice or for fun,
And he likes to tell the people how the
little trick is done;
He keeps the spectators filled with
wonder and with doubt
But the gobble-uns Ii git him.
if
don't
watch
out.
When Gates wakes up the first thing
that he does is try to think
How he can make million just as
easy as a wink;
The public thinks its funny if he lets
a day go past
Without a coup or something that Is
wonderful and vast;
If it's poppy seeds or gold mines he S
prepared to take shot
And a million always seems to be the
smallest change he's got
Oh, he keeps the other fellows dancin'
lively all about
But the gobble- uns'll git him
if
he
don't
watch
out.

TROUBLE
In a Boarding
House.
Police Raided It Sunday
Afternoon.
Drunken Sunday Fight Aired In
Police Court.

There was enough excitement at the
clearinghouse OF Louis Tontler, on
South Main st., Sunday afternoon, to
cause stir. even among the residents
of that neighborhood. who have be-
como somewhat accustomed to unusual
things, when they take place ut
"Louie's." 1t was reported to the po.
lice at noon, that there was bloody
fight there, and enough noise resulted
for riot of no mean proportions. The
automobile was sent down, and Louis
Tontier, proprietor, his son Edward,
Richard Wilkinson, Frank Gilllland
and Michael Shay were arrested and
charged with intoxicatlon. In Po-
lice court, Monday morning. it de-
veloped that there was much drinking
and carousing at "Loue's' Sunday,
and Edward Tontier and Richard
Wilkinson engaged in fight, which
caused most of the disturbance. Shay,
who was merely drunk and took no
part in the trouble, was fined $2 and
costs, and the belligcrents were fined
81 and costs each.
II believe Tontiers place to be n
nuisance said Police Prosecutor
Wells. "and believe it should be
abated. Heinous assaults are COM
mitted there frequently, and 1t is only
short time since an Italian was
robbed there and nearly killed. The
