Sioux City Proprietors.
Special to Times Republican.
Sioux City, Dec. 21.-The owners Of
three gambling houses have made one
of the largest settlements of the kind
ever recorded in Sioux City, to avoid
further trouble. They made up the
sum of $500, which had been lost by
Sioax City wholesale houses
Tho facing charge of embezzlement
the collector screwed UP his courage
and made clean breast of his losses
to his employer. He said he had come
in from South Dakota last Saturday
night with little Dover $500 of the
company's money and was tempted to
try his luck in the gambling houses
He lost heavily at first and in attempt
ing to retrieve his losses. risked the re-
mainder of the amount of the collec-
tions and lost it.
AS he was bonded by q South Da-
kota company the Sioux City whole
sale house was protected from loss
His employer, however. taking an In
terest in the case, communicated with
the bond company, and one of it's rep-
resentatives came to Sioux City. After
a day or more of skirmishing between
the gamblers the bond company man
and the wholesale house man. the
gamblers pitched in" and restored
the $500 to the unfortunate collector.
Edward Eckles, who claims he los.
$50 in Frank DolezoTs gambling
house, has brought three separate ac-
lions against the proprietor of the
gambling house.

A Wonderful Memory.

Magliabecci had a memory 80 ex-
traordinary that it seemed to dwarf all
his other mental faculties. He read all
ancient and modern languages that
had literature and was familiar with
the title and contents Of every known
book. He once said that he could re-
peat the titles of over 10000 books
written in many languages on diver
sity of subjects. His whole life was
given to study. He commonly remain
ed at work all night, and when nature
could endure, no more he lay down
wherever he CHANGED to be. and with
the floor for couch. book for pill
low and covered with an old tattered
cloak he would sleep for few hours,
then rise and 80 to work again. He
literally knew everything that was
worth knowing in his time. but pro-
duced nothing of his own.

One Of the most interesting animals

states, is the ocelot. the strange little
spotted cat Of the dense jungles Of
tropical parts Of the two Americas.
They are not nearly 80 heavy as the
average lynx of the eastern woods and
are infinitely lighter on their feet.
They run with the greatest agility up
and down the almost perpendicular
trunks Of trees and follow crippled
bird out on limbs too slender, it would
seem, to bear the weight of the par
rot, let alone the cat. Parrots are the
ocelots principal food, and their hunt
ing is done almost altogether by day,
though, like all the cat tribe, they are
thoroughly at home In the blacklist

In order to follow them it is necessary
that the ocelots be great Jumpers, and
so they are. When was following
