ANOTHER BENDER
ROMANCE

A rumor is current that Joe Mon
ahan the woman who recently died
near Rockville, Idaho, after having
successfully masked as man for
the past IS years, was none other
than Kate Bender, the notorious
Kansas murderess, and that old
man Bender and his wife are still
living in Snake River Valley. The
Bender family have been located
a number of times and different
people have beeen arrested on sus-
plclon of being members of this
family at various times, ever since
their notorious crimes came to light
and their mysterious disappearance
followed, over 80 years ago; but it
is more than probable that the re-
mains OF these human fends lie
buried in the sands of the Verdiges
river. Who Joe Monaghan was
will probably never be known and
Still there is chance that the mvs-
terles that surrond her life may vet

ner. appearance in this country
SHORTLY after the disappearance of
the Bender family, but that she was

probable, Mr. w. T. Schnabel be-
t0fe leaving for Alaska received a

POOL ROOMS
OF SEATTLE
ARE CLOSED

SEATTLE, Wash. May 5.-E~ery
pool room in this city was closed last
night by order of Chief Of Police De
laney, and city officials aver that the
places are out of business permanently
or at least so far as the authorities are
concerned. The proprietors of the
various places, including the Totem,
Clancys, the Seattle Bar and the Stan
dard, are said to be considering the
possibility of instituting legal fight
but when asked for an explanation
they declined to discuss the PROPOSE
ton. Clancy's place has been closed
for some time, but the three remaining
houses were in full operation. until the
order came to cease, and immediately
the playing stopped.
Those who profess to be in touch
with tenderloin conditions aver that
the pool room proprietors are already
considering taking the matter to the
courts. Once before they won out on
such a case, as the state law is said
to make no provision against playing
horses, but in view of the active OPP
position of the officials they are re-
ported to be little dubious about
appealing to the courts.
The officials have been considering
closing up the pool rooms for some
time, and Mayor Ballinger and Chief
Delaney have held several discussions
on the subject. Finally they deter
mined to stop the playing. and yester-
day evening the chief quietly notified
the places to shut up shop, which they
did without delay. The usual crowd Of
after-dlnner players who had not heard
of the action visited their accustomed
haunts, but found no chance to back
their favorites horses.
Both the mayor and chief of police
express determination to eradicate
all forms of gambling in this city, SO
far as they are able. They emphatical-
ly declare that there is to be nc
"squaring" or halfway measures, but
that gambling is closed. and it is closed
to stay.
Gas long as I am mayor there will
be no more pool rooms" explained
Mayor Ballinger. "The gamblers have
been told that 1 will countenance nc
form of gambling, and l mean exactly

IL playing first base for Boise and his
stickwork seems to have fallen off until
il is hardly recognizable.
When Elsey comes to bat he looks
like an old woman reaching for a
clothes pin. Elsey isn't there any
more. He is handling the stick like
q novice.
But the change in the player is chief
ly noticed when he tries to throw

1t has just been discovered that the

usual way, but rs assistant manager OF
the Occur d'Alene alleys. which kept
him on the roll pretty regular.
Bowling develops muscles of the arm
which interfere with both throwing
and batting. Charlie got whole lot
of this exercise during the past winter
and it will take some time for it to
wear off.
Couldn't Fool Dammann.
Lots of fellows tried to force Billy
Dammann to take to the bowling game.
But Billy claimed it wouldn't do his
wing any good and baked. A reason
