Council Hluffs. Iowa, April 29.-Alone
and single handed, Mayor McCrea last
night pulled four faro games in this city,
arrested the players and connscated the
tables, chips and cards.
1t has been reported for some time that
gambling was being carried on in the
city, but no evidence was secured by the
police. The mayor finally determined to
take a hand. ...- ... . .
Shortly after midnight he presented
himself at the rooms over the Krug saloon
and demanded admittance. The bar
tender refused at first but the mayor
promptly covered him with his gun and
the doors We're unlocked.
Stepping in. McCrea called out: Col
slider yourselves under arrest, and
backed up his words with his big gun.
There was a wild stampede, but the
mayor and the gun held the doorway and
fourteen men were arrested and held I'M
til the arrival of the police wagons. Three
other rooms were raided during the night
and to-day all gambling in the city has
ceased. McCrca says he will continue his
raiding whenever he can find gambling.

THE MAKING OF LENSES.
Glass Is Made Principally in Euro
pean Countries and Shipped
In Small Slabs.

When a popular camera was
first under consideration, it be
came necessary to secure a good
lens at popular price. This was
possible only by the devising and
making of special machinery and
tools, and by buying the raw glass
and manufacturing in large guam
titles, writes w. b. Ashley, in Out
ing. Lens glass, as all the world
knows, or will after this story is
published, is made principally in
Germany, France and England
Brought to the manufacturers III
small slabs, it is cut by revolving
saws into the different sizes and
then subjected to a series of grind
ings and polishings that must
eventually enable the tester to fit
the lens over an absolute form of
the shape and size required, so per-
fectly that deviation of one two
millionth of an inch is instantly
detected. The cement used for
building up lenses from single
lenses is a preparation so delicate
that ii cannot alter this perfection.
The making OF lenses for photo
graphic work has now become an
immense industry, and in many
cases the shutters are also made
in conjunction. Highest skill is
employed to perfect this first re-
quisite of the apparatus, but care
full as these makers are to prove
their work, the lenses are also al.
ways thoroughly tested by the
camera experts. This does not
mean that they are subjected to
anything like the different tests
the amateur will apply later on,
but finish, focus and mount. and
the focal scale is tested by objects
at the stated distances; the finder
is brought into alignment. and
then the camera needs only the
Anal touching up of rubbed spots
TO be ready for the market.

Bees in Warfare.

There are at least two recorded
instances in which bees have been
used as weapons Of defense in war.
When the Roman Gen. Lucullus
was warning against Mithridates,
lie sent 4 force against the city of
Themiscyra. As they besieged the
walls. the inhabitants threw down
on them myriads Of swiuans or
bees. These AT once began an at
tack, which resulted in the raising
Of the siege. These doughty little
insects were also once used with
4qnal success in England. Ches-
ter was besieged by the Danes and
Norwegians, but it's Saxon defend
ers threw down on them the bee
hives of the town, and the siege
was soon raised. IN. Y. Times.
