Both these men, he declares, he has

Barnes, was a bad man, he declares,
and was quick at getting the drop on
one. This was why. he says, he shot

her lost suit case have come to happy
ending. Some six weeks ago Mrs. Har-
dine and man having suit cases iden-
tically similar went to the Pacific
hotel. In the hustle of their arrival
they exchanged suit cases. Mrs. Har-
dine opened what she supposed was
hers after arriving at the hotel and
was startled to find it contained the
travelling impedimenta of some mere
men.
Inquiry at the hotel ELECTED the in
formation that the stranger who was
supposed to have her grip had gone
away. The only thing in the case that
might identify its owner were some

troubles in detail. The Nebraska

city, where men and women drink to-
gcther.
The Mississippi river is alive with
are wine rooms, palm gardens Con
palatial boats which are floating gam
bling hells. Excursions are advertised
nightly. As soon as the boats leave the
wharf the lid is off Gambling of all
kinds is started. There are craps, rou-

chimes. -
And the throngs simply fight to get
at each form of gambling Once in 4

some enc is permitted to make a good
winning. Then the suckers begin to
fight to lose their money.
Meanwhile a wheezy orchestra has
opened up on the main deck and dane
ing is in order. 1t isn't strictly socie-
ty dancing, but it answers just the
same, and the dancers enjoy it.
1t is said that a man anxious to lose
money or laboring under the hallucin-
alton that he can win some, does not
have to seek the boats, but the games
are not extensively public, and then
there are the race tracks with plenty
of sure things.
After midnight the hilarity and rev.

long as the jewellers have the strength

since the sudden flight of Manager
Perrett, has acted as manager for the
institution.
Clark appeared at the comptroller's

he believes it for the best of public
morals that an investigation be made
into the affair before he issues orders
to his deputies to transfer the license.

From reliable information received
by the Press Eiseman wants to take
over the business of the Western En-
ployment agency on Main avenue.
The comptroller. however, has stated
that notwithstanding the fact of the
bonds being approved by the mayor
and corporation counsel, he will refuse
to issue any further licenses until the
matter is put in better shape than
heretofore and his Office knows how to
proceed in the matter. The issuing of
such licenses is left entirely in the
hands of the comptroller, and he may
issue them or not just as he sees fit.
