The gambling instinct is responsible
for more breaches Of trust than al

that the man who has for years been

the other insulted him because Of a
slight breach OF etiquette at the dinner
table.
They argued the matter while going TO
the station and came to blows while
standing under the train shed. The
mems wives took sides with their hus-
bands and, although sisters, started to
pummel each other. The other three wo-
men took a hand and in few minutes
particles OF women's attire were begin

Gordy appeared on the scene about this
time and stopping the fight warned the
whole company that they would be ar
