MAYOR INSTRUCTED TO LET
SURE-THlNG GAMES BE EXTENDED

The city council didn't quite take
the lid off Monday night, but 1t pried
it open bit. The mayor was in
structed to permit slot-machine
gambling at reduced license SO.
The councilmen in the main wers
diplomatic in expression and handled
the proposition with long tongs, but
several members went so far as to
declare in favor of opening up the
whole dern thing without giving a
dash line who knows it.
Protracted and general discussion
revealed that such consummation is
devoutly wished by large share OF
the population. Mayor Newman, how
ever, said he did not want the action
of the council to be misunderstood.
He had found it impossible under the
existing statutes to prevent gambling
by slot-nachine devices. If poker
were to be stopped it might require
deputizing one-half Of the population
on the police force to watch the other
half. The slot machine license pro-
position, he proposed, he declared did
not mean that the good old days were
to return and that Havre was again
to be a wide-open town.
His plan, he thought, meant more
revenue for the city without any
change in conditions.
There was but one dissenting voice
to the proposition.
So the games in which no player

has show will remain open and the
other kind will stay closed.
The request of the fire department
for establishment of new block
alarm system and for transfer of
headquarters was unanimously en-
dorsed. The new plans for fire protec-
ton were as reported in the Herald
of June Is.
1t was recommended that a special
sewer district be established through
block of Decelles addition. This
sewer is to go through the alley,
between Third and Fourth avenues
from Sixth to Seventh street. The
special improvement district is known
as No. s. The district was estab-
lished.
A petition for a street crossing
across Third avenue at Sixth street
was granted.
All bills were allowed.
A crossing was ordered across Third
street and Eighth avenue.
The mayor was instructed to notify
City Clerk J. NJ. Kelly to come to
taw or resign.
Arrangements were made for paying
all outstanding interest on debts due
by the city. The interests on out
bonds was figured at $785.
City Attorney Hammond reported
that there was no doubt of the city
winning it's cemetery suits, although
he had been ordered to make amend
ed complaints.

RAILWAY OPERATORS MAY STRIKE

Telegraph operators on the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific rail
road are threatening general strike.
The trouble is over the wage scale.
On the Northern Pacific the mini
mum on the eastern end is $45 a
month, opposed to $50 on the 500, the
Milwaukee and the Great Northern.
On both the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific the minimum for
the central divisions is $50 and for
the coast, S55. The men desire the
minimum raised from SIS to $40 a
month in the central division, where
the cost of living is the highest.
They also desire to be paid for San
day and overtime work.

WILEY IS NOW A MISSING MAN

G. E. Wiley is gone, but c. E. Wiley
ia not forgotten. "
A good many persons in Havre are
clamoring for the return of the
smooth Mr.. Wiley. They want him
to come back so badly that they have
set the officers of the court after him
and provided the searchers with the
power of warrants to bring him in.
M. Auerbach & Son, by whom
Wiley was employed say his forgotten
worked too hard, and they have
charged him with collecting $3.50
which he failed to turn in.
Mr.. Wiley left dirty paper collar
at his lodgings and forgot to leave his
regrets at his boarding house.

Special Correspondence to The Press.
NEW YORK, June 24.-Any future
work dealing with the mysteries of
the human mind that does not con-
tain the story of James Street and
Edna Miller will not have been we'll
compiled.
That man, nearing a half CEN
fury of life, allowed his infatuation
for a mere pink and white doll of a
girl to destroy a brilliant career, and
lead him to forsake his devoted wife
and six children. no doubt has been
paralleled
But it is the utter disregard for
common decency displayed by man
and girl in discussing their 'Iove"
that makes the case remarkable.
Bolstered up in a hospital bed, in
which he all but died, this man
Street, who was until recently presi-
dent of a big steamship company
which bore his name. admits with
utmost composure that he intends
to divorce his wife with whom he
lived for 10 years and marry IT.
year-old Edna, scarcely out of
school.
And Edna, just as brazenly, says:
I'm in love with Mr. Street, and
when he gets his divorce I will
marry him"
AS for the poor wife, she takes the
matter complacently enough. She
says she can conceive how Street
might prefer pretty face to hers,
which is not handsome, but, she pa
thetically adds that she thought her
husband might have considered her
years of faithful devotedness and
how carefully she had raised their
offspring.
Those who knew Street in the
business world are amazed at the
details of his wild infatuation: he
seemed SO staid and eminently ca
pable in all of his transactions They
wonder how a man of that apparent
character could brutally cast away
his family as might some savage in
the wilderness.
Gradually the story is coming out.
1t would not have been written but
for the fact that 1t so happened that
Edna, when she graduated from high
school. became stenographer in the
office of the Marine Engineering Mag
azine. She must take train to her
work. 1t was the same train that
Street always took to his office.
He looked over his paper one morn
