GAMBLING STOPPED
BY GOVERNOR FOLK OF MISSOURI
How He Upheld the Law In the Face
Of Fierce Opposition-Raid that
Closed QeImar Race Track.

Among other laws passed by the
Missouri Legislature which had the
active opposition oil the corporations
at long range. was the law prohibiting
race track gambling and making 1t
felony. The st. Louis race track,
known as the Delmar track. was one
OF the most active gambling places in
the country. and the telegraph COM
panies sent the reports OF the Delmar
races all over the land. turning a
pretty penny thereby. The track was
outside the corporation at st. Louis. in
st. Louis county, where the governor
seemed to have no power to enforce
the law.
The Delmar people kept on racing
and gambling. Local sentiment in st.
Louis county was with them, and nat
urally the local officers were in SYM
pathy with the gamblers. and they in
vited all Missouri to laugh ut It's over
jealous governor. Lawyers very gen
orally agreed that the governor had
40 power: but Folk determined for
himself that 1t was not only his right
but his duty to stop organized crime
anywhere in the state.
SO one day n squad OF st. Louis po-
licemen appeared at the gates OF the
Delmar tracks and asked for admis-
sion, and being refused. departed. That
was all. The next day they appeared.
asked for admission. and being re-
fused, walked In. They made no ar
rests. but stood around, and left when
the races were over. The next day
the same squad OF policemen appeared
at the gates. marched In and at the
proper time arrested the bookmakers.

FREE LUMBER BILL

Seemingly the sense Of fair
play, which is inherent in the
American people, has found ex-
preston in Washington in a
definite purpose to relieve those
who build from the exactions of
the Lumber Trust. The case Of
the people is very clearly set
forth by our Washington cor
respondent in a letter printed
elsewhere and it appears that the
proposition to place lumber ON
the free list has found advocates
in high quarters.

uays OF Mckinley; yet we do not
contend, nor concede. that the
existing tariff in all respects is
an ideal schedule Of inposts, to
be set up and worshipped as
fetch. The basic principle of
the Dingley tariff is sound. The
essentials of revenue production,
coupled with protection Of home
industries, are properly set forth.
But we believe the measure in
its present shape may be too
sweeping, that the margin of
protection may be SO great as to
encourage excuses by some Of
its benefciaries.
IN the matter Of lum Der it is
apparent to us that the mills
overreaehed themselves in adj
vancing prices at a time when
the people could ill-aiford to pay
the prices asked, and that, on
this ground alone, the Lumber
Trust has forfeited claim to the
benefits conferred by the tariff.
Furthermore, every considera-
tion OF public policy demands
that limit be placed upon the
timber areas which may be eX-
plotted by lumbermen, and we
believe the most effective way
to preserve the forests would be
to lessen their commercial value
for time by admitting Canadian
lum Der duty free. With an ever
increasing demand for lumber
the safe plan is to remove the
temptation to encroach upon the
National preserves, and that plan
involves the removal of the
tariff.
We trust the proposal may re-
ceive i'll Congress the considera-
ton it deserves.

cHoKED BEAR TO DEATH.
After Lively Chase Arizona Cattle
man Kills Bruin with
Lariat.

Prescott. Ariz.-John Bozarth, a
well-known cattle man from the Camp
Wood country, had a rather lively ex-
perierce with bear near Loco creek a
efw days ago. While on a ride be
sighted BFuin and gave chase.
After running him a considerable dis
tance the bear showed fight and cut a
cash in the flank Of his horse about four
inches in length. He threw his lariat.
which landed around the neck OF the
bear. and had him choked TO death in
short order. He states that bear is
just as easily choked with a rope as a
steer. especially when the bear is fat
1t weighed 500 pounds and was of the
silver tip variety. This is the largest
bear seen in that locality for q number
OF years. Mr.. Bozarth was unarmed and
had to depend on his rope and horse en-
tirely in the struggle.

ELECTRIFIED LAMP CHIMNEY
Fun Which Can Be Had with a
Straight Glass Chimney-Sparks
and Fighting Cats.

A very simple but beautiful expert
ment may be made by any bright boy
with q straight lamp-chimney, the kind
used with the Argand or the Welsbach
gas-light First. cut a narrow strip of
dn-foil and paste it around the chimney.
IN the middle. Then paste a strip of the
same from one end of the chimney to
within about half an inch of the band in
the middle.
Now take a bristle brush. the kind
made to clean lamp-chimneys with. and
over its bristles wrap a perfectly dry
silk handkerchief. Hold the chimney
In your left hand so that your fingers do
not touch the tin-foil anywhere. and put
ung the silk-covered brush into the
chimney rub il briskly back and forth.
This part Of the experiment should be
made in the dark and if. while rubbing
the chimney, You take the brush out now
and then. you will see. every time you
do so, big spark of electricity jump
from one piece OF tin-foil TO the other.
In other words. the friction made by the
rubbing has turned the lamp-chimney
into an electrical machine.
Another pretty experiment IS de-
scribed by the Peoples Home Journal.
