FAST PACE WITH
A DANCING GIRL.
Oriental Artist from the Fair
Grounds Leads a Saloon Keep
or Close to the Grave.
TRIED HARD TO KILL HIMSELF.
There Are Chances for His Recovery,
While She Has Gone Back to Trip
The Light Fantastic.

Samuel Briley, aged 80 years and half
owner of the Golden Gate saloon on
east Second South street, attempted to
shuttle off this mortal coil" by taking
a large dose of morphine. He over
played the mark, however, and took too
large a dose and hence Is likely to re-
cover, He took about 10 grains at
midnight last night in the Madge Dan
lels' resort on Commercial street. DR..
Witcher was called In and administered
all the restoratives in his power with
the result that the would-be suicide Is
in room in the Hazel block on the
fair road TO recovery.
II IL reported that Briley had been on
carouse since Saturday night with
one Of the oriental dancers from the
Fair grounds and that they went at n
killing pace--that IL, pace that almost
killed him, but one that the terpschor-
can artist from Turkey, providing she
Is from there. kept up without danger
to herself. Nevertheless she Is doing
business at the old stand in Agricultur-
al park this afternoon, while he Is
lowering between the death call and u
further lease on life.

SUNDAY LAWS VIOLATED.
Liquor Sold and Gambling Carried On
without the Least Interruption.

For some reason which seems unac-
countable TO the law-ablding element,
gambling and Sunday liquor selling are In
full blast again and the police are appar-
entity totally obliyious TO the evil.
From dark last evening until nearly
midnight drunken brawlers were seer
rolling up and down East Temple street,
and It would be folly to contend that they
got their loads at restaurants and drug
stores.
At least eight or ten saloons were do
ing a Side and back door trade and a
near sighted man could have seen
guides steering the thrsty-for con-
sideration-.to places where liquor could
be obtained, The only conditions the
dealers imposed were quietness and the
price
That several gambling houses have been
and are running cannot be denied and
some Of the police have admitted H. But
they say II Is Impossible to get evidence
upon which TO convict. They say, also.
II they break down the doors they can
be held responsible and besides the games
would be stopped before the officers could
gain entrance.
But In the meantime, the games flourish
and tales OF how the unwary are feeced
out OF hard earnings are recounted daily.

MRS. BRADLEY'S
CASE GOES OVER.
Time for Passing Sentence on Ar
thur Browns Victim Postponed
Till November 20.
WOMAN NOT PRESENT IN COURT.
Motion to Quash lnformatiOus Against

Pursuant to n mutual agreement be-
tween the court and Dist, Atty Eich-
nor, Judge Morse this morning post
poned the time for passing sentence
upon Mrs Annie NJ. Bradley until Mon
day morning. Nov. co. at 10 o'clock,
Mrs. Bradley, on last Tuesday pleaded
guilty TO two charges OF adultery, COM
mItted with former Senator Arthur
Brown on Feb, 1 and April II, 1908,
When her case was called this morning
for the purpose of passing sentence,
Judge Morse after a brief conference
with Mr.. Eichnor. announced that the
case would be postponed as stated
above. Mrs. Bradley was not present
in court this morning az all, so 1t was
certainly n pre-arranged plan to have
the time for sentence postponed
BROWNS CASE WEDNESDAY.
The motion to quash the informations
against Senator Brown VIII be argued
on Wednesday and the object for post
poning the time for sentence upon Mrs.
Bradley was to allow the Brown cases
TO be disposed of first. Should the mo-
ton to quash In those cases be denied,
then the cases will have to be set for
trial and Il is not believed that they
can be heard before the first part Of
November. II Is generally believed that
the punishment melted out to Mrs
Bradley Will depend, to certain ex-
tent upon the result of the Brown
cases,
