Chicago. Sept. 16--Gambling In
Chicago is nearer extinction than it
has been in many years Public gam
bling in the city limits Is dead.
This Is the declaration OF the po-
lice and the assertion seems to be
borne out by the scattering and dis
appearance of the men who promote
and give their time to the profession.
The paraphernalia scattered and
seized members of the fraternity are
said to have made one last desperate
stand, which promises violence to the
chief OF police and members of his
family If the gambling crusade con-
tinues.
This takes the form of anonymous
letters sent to the officer and officers
house. which threaten dynalniting of
his home or violence to himself or
family.
Chief Collins was at first inclined to
denounce these warnings as mon
sense" but fearing for the safety of
his family he has stationed a guard
near his residence
The chief refused to divulge the
nature Of the letters save that they
were threatening. He declared them
of 40 Importance. although he admit
ted that his home was guarded and
that members of his personal staff
were investigating the letters.

Coaches In Frnnce.

AS regards the history Of coaches In
Frame Henry ". was assassinated in
1910. Soon after his death some en-.
cravings Were published representing
him being murdered in his carriage By
Ravaillac. IL is from these that we
get a fair idea Of the coaches.
They are simply square boxes. meas
urlne BY scale six feet in length by
three and.a half feet in width. on four
wheels Of the same diameter. without
any springs or straps and seating SIX
persons in all-namely. two with their
backs TO the horses. TWO facing them
and two more, one on EACH side Of the
two boots at the side. Each vehicle
had a roof, resting on light columns,
and curtains to draw or TO let down.
This agrees well with the received
accounts Of the incident. according TO
one version Of which Henry rode in
an open carriage, and according TO an
other that as soon as the fatal blow
was delivered by the assassin the
kings attendant who rode with him

acquire any local sacredness that might
