PUT THE LID ON
 GAMBLING IN MENA
Officers Raid Room. Find Poker Lay. out and Burn It in the Street One Outfit Stored
 No Arrests.

Chief of Police Bud Bickle, as- sisted by Deputy Philpot, and with the approval of Mayor Ol- ney, Friday burned several pieces of gambling paraphernalia in the presence of number of witnesses in the middle of Front street opposite the Kansas City Southern depot.
 The place raided was that of Ed Lyman, who operates pool hall on Front street. About 3 o'clock Chief Bickle and Deputy Philpot ascended the stairway leading to the upper story of Lyman's building and found a poker table and several decks of cards. No one was in charge at the time. They carried the stuff to the street and applied match. Lyman, who watched the pr. : ceedings, made DO protest, but intimated that this would end gambling iu Mena so far as he was concerned.
 Chief Bickle says that gambling in Mena must be stopped and thinks he IS using the proper method to put an end to 1t. When the proceedings of the officers be- ca ne known Robert Pirtle, who owns some expensive gambling paraphernalia that 1t is said has not been in use for several months, asked permission to store his property until he could dis pose of it. This privilege was granted MT. Pirtle, and the outfit was at once crated and set aside.

Haywood and Petit bone all three told me to keep after Peabody It was arranged that I should become life insurance solicitor"
 Orchard declared he got recom- mendations for that position with one of the big agencies in Denver from Mir. Hawkins, an attorney and partner of F. F. Richardson, one of the attorneys now representing Hay wood, and from ]. O. Sullivan, presi- dent of the state federation of labor.
 Orchard said he decided to prepare a bomb to place beneath Peabody's bed room window at Canon City, Col
 The state here created something of a sensation by producing in evi- dence the lead casing of the bomb. It was the size of two gallon can Orchard identified 1t.
 He said he had shown the casing to Pettibone in Denver and loaded 1t in the basement of Pettibone's store, the latter assisting him. Thir- ty pounds of giant powder were used
 ''Pettibone and I then went to work and prepared bomb for Judge Gabbert. We made it out of a half gallon syrup can, using ten pounds of giant powder.
 ''Pettibone and planted the bomb In vacant lot which Judge Gab- bert crossed on his way home. We left wire out of the bomb and to this we intended fastening a pocket book; the idea being that Judge Cab bert would pick up the purse and thus upset the bottle of sulphuric acid inside the bomb. We tried one day to fasten the purse, but Judge Gabert came too fast and we had to leave 1t alone.
 "Pettibone had to go next day to Salt Lake to attend the convention of the Western Federation of Min CTS, leaving me to attend to Judge Gabbert. He said we must certainly do something before the convention. was afraid to touch the old bomb, so l prepared a new one. As Judge Gabbert started out the next morning 1 rode ahead of him on bicycle and wire rode off down town and did lot hear an explosion until an hour afterward. A man named Valley had picked up the pocket book and was killed. Judge Gabbert had passed without noticing it."
 Haywood suggested" he said, that we ought to get ex-Gov. Steun- rnterg He thought that If we got him after letting him go seven or eight years and then went back to Pater- son. N. J., and wrote letters to Judge Eabbert. Judge Goddard, Peabody, Dell and the others telling them they would get the same thing as Steuen- berg. 1t would show them they were not forgotten either and would have good effect. Mover said it would be better than killing them; that 1t would be living death for they would be confronted by tile thought always of somebody waiting for them.

Cans Wins
Over Britt


San Francisco, Sept. 10. "A left
swing, to the body, oleverly blocked by
Joe Cans, cost Jimmy Britt any chance
he might have had to win back the
lightweight championship of the world
Monday and brought to close five
rounds of fast fighting, witnessed by a
crowd of about ID 900 people.
The blow, caught by Cans on his
elbow, one. of the negro's cleverest de-
fensive tricks, was struck in the mid
die oft he fourth round. 1t broke Britt g
wrist and though he went on again in
the fifth round he was helpless in both
offense and defense. 1t was not until
hits round that he informed his seconds
of the mishap.
The fght,whi it lasted, was a slug
ging match, but it was perfectly evil
dent to every trained observer that
Britt had no chance to win from the
negro. For the first time in his life he
was out matched.

New Foot Ball Rules.

The actual matter of the rules has
not been materially changed, owing to
the satisfaction that was found with
the wholesale revision which took
place in the rules of 1906. It was de-
termined to increase the playing time
another 10 minutes by adding five
minutes to each half. 1t was voted to
continue the method of two umpires.
The 10-yard rule is preserved exactly
as before. Forward passing has been
altered to a certain extent, making it
less risky to use it on the first and
second down. Instead of losing the
ball in case the forward pass strikes
the ground before striking a player of
either side, the same side retains pos
session of the ball by losing Is yards
in distance. When the forward pass
is essayed on the third down, however,
and it strikes the ground without strik-
ing a player, or is otherwise made il
legally, the ball must be surrendered
to the other side exactly as formerly.
That line man may carry the ball,
provided he does not leave his position
LII INC Inc uHIu me JAIL 10 put III play.
1t was also determined that the for
ward pass or tripping or hurdling by
the side that did not put the ball in
play in a scrimmage, should be pena-
lized Is yards.
In order to prevent signaling by one
man and a catch and run by another,
it was legislated that if one man of the
side signals his intention of making a
fair catch, and then another of his
side who did not signal, makes the
catch. this player may not run with
the ball nor is he entitled to the priv
ileges coming from a fair catch, but
the ball must be put down at the point
where he caught it for a scrimmage by
his side,

DEATH HELPS ROMANCE.
Rich Mining Man Has Been Denied
Divorce by Church.


Denver, Col.-After being denied the
right to marry without being excom-
municated by the Catholic church, of
which they are devout members,
death is about to step in and help
Portland" James A. Doyle, a million
aire mine owner of Cripple Creek, and
Miss Marie Duffy, a beautiful tele-
phone operator of Denver, out Of their
dilemma.
In the palmy days of Cripple Creek,
just as Doyle was emerging from the
poverty class into the ranks of mill
lionaire through fabulous gold strikes
in the Portland mine at Victor, he met
the dashing and very unconventional
Daphne Belle Sutton, who came from
little town in Iowa, fell in love with
her and made her his wife. Mrs. Doyle
was also known as Belle Daniels be-
fore her marriage, and she claimed no
particular place as her home
Married life hung heavily on Mrs.
Doyle, and she grew tired of the re-
strictions home ties placed upon her.
Doyle forgave her conduct time after
time, but finally divorced her.
Mrs. Doyle next became friendly with
Kid Mccoy. the pugilist, who borrowed
a $1,000 diamond ring from her and
lost it, he claimed.
Later, Mrs. Doyle, still beautiful,
married a rich copper manufacturer
named Whitley and toured the world
with him. Again domestic life became
irksome to the dashing young woman
and her husband found ample reason
to divorce her.
Two years ago Mrs. Whitley married
Charles Hepner, rich mining man of
Blair, New, and went to Honolulu with
him. Mrs. Hepner's liberal views on
life led to a disagreement. In the
meantime she had become afflicted
with consumption. Ten days ago she
came to Denver, her old stamping
ground, for lone last good time"
Now her death is hourly expected at
local hospital, and when her soul pass
es to the great beyond, the romance
of Jimmie" Doyle and Marie Duffy
will be consummated in marriage.
