G. n. Yates Who Made Complaints
Against Gamblers, Attacked
by Bert Yonts, Jockey
and Badly Injured.

Because he had given information
against gamblers who attempted to
'flim fam him and because he had
let out the location of gaming place
G. r. Yates. the teamster of Mont
rose. was assaulted in n most helm
GUS and cowardly manner, II reports
of eye witnesses are trustworthy, this
afternoon about half past one o.
clock at the fair grounds by Bert
Younts. a jockey.
Yates came to town as soon as he
was able and notified the city attor-
ney. He was suffering from two ugly
cuts over the left eye and one on his
forehead. one eye was blackened and
his face swollen and he had suffered
much from the loss of blood. his shirt
and coat and vest on one side being
nuid.
Yates states that he was sitting
near one of the stalls in the horse
quarters at the fair grounds when
Younts, who was laying on bed in
one of the stalls jumped up and said
there is that id scroundrel who
gave that poker game away" He pro-
ceeded to curse Yates and then he
suddenly without warning attacked
Yates who was still sitting down and
defenseless. Several of Younts pals
and companions were with him and
closed up around the men as If to-
intimate that they would take part
II Younts needed help, seeing his
disadvantage, made but little resis
tence and got away from the crowd as
soon as possible, bleeding and suffer
ing much pain. Younts declared that
they'll never convict o'Conner and
by g I'll bet you are run out of
town If you are here tonight"
City Attorney Coles had warrant
issued charging Younts with assault
and battery and sherin's officer
went out to the fair grounds to make
the arrest
Younts. who expected to make the
races is liable to he deprived of that
privilege says the city attorney.

COMPLAINTS ARE FILED
Jaynes Brothers Are Charged With
Conducting Gambling House
In This City.-Warrants
VIII be Served This
Afternoon.

Jaynes Brothers, the proprietors of
the Alamo cigar store and pawn shop.
operated on Main street between 3rd
and 4th strets, are charged with con-
ducting a gambling house.
Complaints were issued this morn
ing from the office of City Attorney
n. E. Coles. They will be served this
afternoon.
G. T. Yates. the man who swore
out warrants for two men with whom
he was gambling on Sunday and who,
according to his story attempted to
film fam him, states that the game
was carried on in the rear room of
the Jaynes Brothers establishment
City Attorney Coles states that he
has much other evidence that will go
to show that this firm have been al
lowing gambling in their place of
business for a long period. From
time to time complaints have come to
the officials to the effect that gam
bling tables were in operation at the
Alamo but not until lately has the
evidence been sufficient to warrant
the filing of complaints. City Attor-
ney. Coles believes that conviction
can be easily secured.
The preliminary hearing will prob
ably take place in the justice court in
two or three days.

His Request for Resignation Of
Sullivan, After Bitter
Flight is Tabled,

Peoria, ILL.,, Aug. 23,-By vote
Of 1893 to $40 the convention placed
upon tho table the request OF Will
liam j. Bryan for the resignation Of
Roger c. Sullivan from the national
committee. Despite the fact that Mr.,
Bryan had declared that he did not
wish TO be endorsed unless Sullivan
was repudiated, the convention de-
clared him 10 be the one and only
man capable OF leading the Demo
cratic party 10 victory in 1908, The
endorsement of Bryan and the tab
ling OF the motion calling for the
resignation of Mr. Sullivan came at
the close OF most exciting session
OF the convention In which there
were several fights and through
out which confusion regned supreme.
The committee on resolutions de-
cllnsd TO report a plank calling for
the resignation of sullivan, and the
debate followed upon motion made
in the convention by Judge owen
Thompson, of Jacksonville, calling
for Sulliyan's resignation. II had
been agreed that each side should
have forty-hye minutes in which
10 present its side of the case
and Mr.. Thompson was the first ad-
vocate in the cause of MIR. Bryan.
He allowed his feelings to carry him
somewhat to an extreme, and
aroused the hostility of Sullivan $
friends by the unfeeling manner in
which he dwelt upon the platform,
his face white with wrath and his
form shaking with the intensity of
his feelings. His causic criticism
finally lost him the ear Of the con
vention and he might never have
been able to conclude his speech If
Mr.. Sullivan had not personally re-
questcd quiet.
sullivan, who followed Thompson,
and who was the first speaker in his
own behalf, declared that the ear of
Mr.. Bryan had been poisoned against
him and that the demand for his
resignation sprang from his personal
enemies.
Great feeling was displayed on
both sides during the debate and at
times personalities of disaGrcoable
character we're INDUCED in by vari-
Gus speakers.
The end came on motion made
by Congressman Kern, Of Belle
Vile, that the request for the rcsig-
nation of Sullivan be laid on the
table.
Feeling during the roll call on this
proposition ran very high, The sew
eral counties we're challenged and
cue delegate from Warren county
declared that the vote from that
county had been deliberately garbled

Strengthened out the vote was de-

Thin Places.

When l was a little girl, said
auntie, l had a dear old grand
mother, who taught me to mend
and darn, and, with the teaching,
she slipped in many a lesson about
different things. Look out for thin
places, she used to say. It'll save
you a good deal of time and trou-
BILE. A few runs back and forth
with the needle will save a half
hours darning next week. There
are a few thin places in thy char
acter, she said, one day, that
thee'd better attend to-little fail
ings that will soon break into sins.
I did not quite understand her; so,
sweetening her talk with a bit of
chocolate she carried for the BARNS,
she said: 1 see thy mother pick
ing up thy coat and hat; putting
away thy rubbers again and gain.
1 hear thee sometimes speak pref
ty sharply when some one inter
rupts thee at thy story-reading. I
heard thee offer to dust the parlor
several days ago, but thee forgot
it, and to-day thy mother put down
her sewing to do it. Selected.
