Coney Island might well pause for hour in
it's career Of jollity and pleasure to pay CRATE
ful tribute to the memory of Andrew N Culver.
II may be that without him the island would
have become what it is to-day. though may
we'll doubt whether its development would have
been effected nearly so soon. Mr.. Culver was.
above all other men. the pioneer OF Coney
Islands growth into the resort which it now is.
He had unbOunded faith in it's future. and his
faith was made manifest in his works. which
were planned far-seeing and generous scale
but which were amply justified by their results.
1t will be we'll to perpetuate his name on the
island and on the transportation route thither
OF which he was the founder

SLOT MACHINES IN couRf.
They wnl Re Used in Trial of John
 JOhnsOn.

Johnson.
 Two slot machines, which will Ds used as evidence today in the criminal division of the City Court against John Johnson, a negro. were sent to the court room late yesterday afternoon, By order of Judge w. H. Thomas the machines remained in the court house through the night.
 / There is something interesting about these machines, 1t having been hintsd that there is money in them-nickles. dimes and quarters-which have lain idle a year. The devices were cap .tured about twelve, months ago at Riv- erside Park, where 1t is claimed John Johnson was conducting gambling establishment. The machines stiil have been held as the property of the Coun- ty and they will be used in an effort to convict the negro. They are pretty and attractive to the eye, and at to- days trial they will be opened for the first time since they have been in tae possession of the County.
 It will be remembered that similar slot machines were operated last sum- mer at one of Montgomery's amuss- nent parks but when the park passed into new hands the machines wee abandoned A number of machines or this type used to be at the French Lick Springs Casino, over which Tom Taggart and the Governor of Indiana are now having a squabble.
