TWO GAMBLERS PLEAD
GUILTY AND ARE FINED
Trial Before Judge Steiner Today Re-
suits In Victory for the Law
and Order League of
Wenatchee

Two gamblers, Robert Schmoker
and O. j. C,zad, arrested in the re.
cent raid instituted by the Law and
order League uf this city, were ar
raigned before Judge Steiner iu the
superior court today, entered pleas
of guilty and we're fined $500 each and
costs. Schmoker was arrested tor
carrying on game of draw poker in
the basement of Keiser's saloon ana
Cazad was arrested or carrying on q
game in the r. ear of Duffy 8 saloon. No
evidence was offered on either side.
The convictions which are the frat 20
take place in this county Tor the crime
OF gam bling, were made under the
statute of 1898 which makes gambling
a misdemeanor, urishable by fine
not 60 exceed $500. A more recent
statute MAKES the conducting of a
gambling game a felony punishable
by imprisonment, but as these wei
the first offense of both defendants
and the first cases of the kind to be
brought in the county, it was thought
advisable TO bring action under the
old statute.
In pr nouncing the sentences,
Judge Steiner stated that IN 30
doing he would end eavor to be as len.
lent as possible with the defendants
and at the same time be fair to the
state. He stated however that ne
considered bringing che action under
the old statute an act of leniency
and he would therefore assess heav-
ier fine under the circumstances than
if there were but one law applicable
In the case. He stated also that he
would in this case, as in a recent de-
cision in the courts of Okanogan
county. consider that he was in no
way establishing precedent for his
subsequent decisions in like oases, by
sentencing the Defendants unoer the
old law, bur if there should he rep.
itition of the offense he would act
entirely independent of the present
decision. His decision is meeting
with the nearly approval Of every one
and Prosecuting Attorney Grass is be-
ing highly oomplimented for his good
judgement 10 filing the informarions
against the gam blers under the old
statute.
Judge Steiner's g action in sentencing
the gamblers was taoitly an act of
commendation on the work Of the Law
and Order league, for in spite of the
fact that Attorney Thomas in speech
before the court attempted to dispar-
age the work OF the detectives in Sc.
curing the evidence, the judge gave

HELPING A LAME ELEPHANT.
Veterinary Surgeons Story Of Gratitude
Shown by the Big Beast.

SnoWn py thS Dig poase
A veterinary surgeon who had won
reputation was once summoned to
attend Hebe, a favorite elephant,
who had hurt her foot. She was a
splendid creature, and worth a small
fortune.
Hebe had stepped on a nail or a
bit Of iron. and 1t had penetrated the
tender part of her foot. She was in
intense agony-almost wild with
pain.
Long before we reached the en-
closure where she was kept we could
hear her piteous trumpeting, says
the surgeon in telling the experience
in Our Dumb Animals, and when we
entered we found her on three legs,
swinging the sore foot slowly back
ward and forward, and uttering long
cries of anguish. Her keeper said:
Don't be afraid. sir. Hebe's got
sense" But I own that felt
rather queer and shaky as I went up
to the huge beast.
The men employed about the show
came around us curiously as bent
to examine the foot. While was
doing so as gently as I could, I
felt a light touch on my hair, and as
I turned and saw the great trunk be-
hind me 1t had an awful suggestive
ness.
fD ~
Deep" I said to the keeper. He said
a few words in some lingo. evidently
intended for. the elephants under
standing only. Then he shouted with
the utmost GOODNESS: "Cut away"
Well, 1 made one cash with the
knife. I felt the grasp on my hair
perceptibly, yet not urgently. Cold
drops Of perspiration stood out all
over me and hesitated as to
whether to go on.
"shall cut again?" I managed to
call out.
"Cut away" came the response.
This stroke did the work. A mass
OF fetid matter followed the knife;
the abcess was lanced. We sprayed
out the foot, packed 1t, and bound 1t
up. The relief must have been i'm
mediate, for the grasp on my hair
relaxed, the elephant drew a long
sigh.
A year and half after this I was
called to western Massachusetts.
Barnum's show was there. You
may be sure I called to inquire
for my distinguished patient.
"Hebe's we'll and hearty, sir" the
keeper answered me. Come in and
see her; she'll be glad to see you"
For a moment she looked at me
indifferently, then steadily and with
interest. She next reached out her
trunk and laid it caressingly on my
hair, and then she lifted up her
foot, now whole and healthy, and
showed it to me. That's the sober
truth.
