clan have a convenient convent on the
Grande Rue where their circumnaviga-

flute and tambOUrine, the robed ana
turbaned Dervishes commence their
turning. With arms outstretched, the
right palm upward to beseech blessings,
the left depressed to signify mercy be-
slowed, the head is lent upon the right
shoulder. The rapid revolving upon the
right heel IS effected by employing the
left toes as motive power. As the cir

Sheriff Can't See Differ

and POOIrOOmS.

LOUISVILLE, KY. oct. 12-Sherin A.
Scott Bullitt threw a bombshell into the
local racing circles yesterday, when he
addressed a letter to Charles +. Grain
ger, president of the new Louisville
Jockey Club. in which he warned MI
Granger that he would allow no betting
at the fall meeting at Churchill Downs,
which is scheduled to begin next Wed
nesday- In his letter the Sherin says
he can see no difference between betting
on the races in a poolrOom and on a
race track, and that he considers IL his
duty to stop il under any circumstances.
While the jockey club officials have
not as yet announced what course they
will pursue. II is presumed that they
viii seek an injunction restraining the
sheriff from taking any action to in
terfere with the boolInakers. The
jockey club has. a charter from the
State, which. it is claimed, permits
gambling on the races. and It Is further
more claimed that the statutes directed
against gambling IN Kentucky specIh-
caHy except pool selling on a race track.
