Bot a story of SO much new value
Couldn't I've sighted and a reporter hurried

Kick-A-Hole n-The-Sky, who says she
entered the room where the little indian
hoy was playing just as he raised a loose
board in the floor and uncovered the
roulette wheels and things. Furthermore.
Mary Enthusiastically mother of the

the boys father, says George-W gton-
Suct'ed-Weasel got his name because OF

Chief Press-Agent-W Will Page backs up all
these dispositions. Chief Press-Agent-Wil
Page isn't a regular Indian, but only an
understndy.
Mary Enthusiastically was doing some
tattinS on the second floor Of the boarding
house yesterday forenoon and asked Alice
Kick A-Hole-In-The-Sky il she would mind
running upstairs to see whether little
Gcorge-W Spotted Weasel was
getting into mischief. Earlier in the week
George W. s. W. had found the boarding
house cat, her litter of seven kittens and a
can Of g~asolene in juxtaposition in the base
ment and aided by a newspaper fuse and
. match had frescoed the ceiling will cats
Of assorted sizes. From past experience
Georgie's mother knew that the cat and
kittens exploit was an indication that
George was getting ready to do some
thing really mischievous.
Alice ick-A- Hole-In-The-S Sky, who is to
make her first Eastern appearance on
Thanksgiving Eve at the head Of the Buffalo
Ballet, came from the window where she
had been gazing dreamily at an Indian
who was standing motfonless in front OF
the cigar store at 231 and started gayly to
climb the banister to take look at George.

her way aloft with hands and feet digging

In her surprise Alice slid all the way down
the banister al il shot. Squared on by the
wild war whoop she doggedly began to
climb the banister again. Painting behind
her Georges mother, Mary Bullets In-The-
Eye, mounted the banister sstride and
crawled after her, the mother love urging
Mary to widest effort. AS Alice Kick-A-
Hole-InLThe-Sky had a full minutes lead
she reached the third door far ahead OF
Mary.
AIce's face blanched when she opened
the door OF the room where little George,

body was in the room n 1t was wriggling
like a decapitated chicken.

But mufied cries told the nervous ladies
that the upper half OF George was near by.
Alice Kick-A-Ho -In-The-Sky grasped one
moccasin firmly and Mary Bullets -ln-The-
Eye clamped both hands around the other
and as their combined efforts brought the
hoy out on the floor they were relieved TO
find that he was still all in one piece.
Down in the hole where George had
partly been could be seen queer objects
glowing and glinting in the dark. Mechani-
cally spanking George on the buckskin
with right hands and digging up the treasure
with the left hands Alice and Mary drew
forth the finest array Of gambling apparatus
seen in that vicinity for several days. There
was one black walnut roulette wheel with
more silver mounting on IL than a Pttsburg
porch rocker and a roulette layout in all the
colors OF the rainbow. There was a silver
faro deal box and a giddy faro layout.
Three silver trimmed dice boxes and four
dozen dice, almost quare in shape, were
next dragged forth and these never got
any further than the Indians OF the first
floor. who had Just come in for luncheon
and wer.. climbing the banister madIy
toward the excitement. ~
But. finest OF all. there was over a half a
hushel Of little circles of ivory wampum
In red. white and blue disks; The Indians
explained to Chief Press-Agent-Will-Page
later that these are used in a Western game
known as stud poker and that although
they have no intrinsic value they can be
watered indefinitely. Also there were twen-
ty-four packs of cards.
