THE BUCKET SHOP.
Webster S Weekly,

Brief mention of the closing of this
institution was made in our last issue.
1t is a matter of congratulaton that
this gambling den has been driven from
our midst. Conservative citizens freely
express the opinion that it has done
more harm than all the bar-rooms in
Reidsville. The town is poorer by from
$4,000 to $4,000 financially and inf
nitely more so morally for its prosperous
career.
Dealing in futures is the widest sort
of gambling. The whole system is a
humbug and fraud, manipulated by a
gang OF sharpers who put the market
up and down at their pleasure and to
subserve their own interest, regardless
of the law of supply and demand The
patron of the bucket shop risk their mon
ey against wind. Fictitious sales fire.
qucntly exceed the actual in New York
and Chicago in the ratio of 1000 to /.
There can be no morality nor honesty in
such a system. Those who nibble at
the bait. knowing these facts. ought to
be dealt with like ordinary crap shooters
or bored for the simples.
1t would not surprise us to see the
next Legislature do for the entire State
what it did for Reidsville: put it's ban
on this form of gambling. The new reve-
nue. bill increases the license from $50
to $500.
Senator Burton's bill is worth the pa
per on which it is written. There will
be no attempt to test it in the courts
nor evade it by the establishment of a
hack line to den outside the corporate
limits. Senator Burton deserves. the
thanks of the community for closing the
argument so effectively. His bill is 'pis
tight. horse high and bull strong and
is warranted TO keep out the animals.

Cause OF Lock-

Lockiaw, or tetanus, Is caused by

All the furnishings of the In
terror scenes In york State Folks"
that beautiful rural drama which
made such a decided impression
upon theatre.goers when presented
here last season including furniture,
carpets, ornaments, and etc, were
secured In the village In central
New York where the author has
laid the scenes of the play. The
lot includes some old family heir
looms which ATE only loaned for
this production upon tie giving of
security for their safe return. This
instance by the playwright upon
realistic detail down to the smallest
matter of stage setting Is said to be
responsible In great measure for
the wonderfully natural atmos-
phere which surrounds the play.
The company which will be seen
here next Wednesday evening at
the Auditorium Is the original and
the same which presented the play
here last season.

FIVE THOUSAND PEOPLE
We're In Attendance at Paden City Land
Sale.

Five thousand would be con.
sentative estimate of the crowd In
attendance at the Paden City land
sale yesterday. 1t was orderly and
good natured and despite the half
dozen saloons that did a veritable
land Office business, there was
little drunkenness and aside from a
couple of little fights everything
passed off smoothly,
The promoters fulfilled every
promise they made In their adver-
tisements having the ox-roast,
plenty of free lunch,a Pittsburg band

vided for the convenience OF their
guests with the limited facilities
affordedby a boom town.

plants Is progressing and a number
Of dwelling houses are In process OF
construction. The Padeu City Bank
has opened Its do DIS and Is doing a
good business.
As previously noted the site Is
ideal, but the price of lots Is very
high, running up to as much as

10 I'd frontage has been reserved for
free manufacturing sites, and but
for the fact that the promoters re-
fused to sell them, they could have
been sold many times over yester-
day.

the opinion of nearly every one
