From the hour his paper was

DISTRIBUTION OF MELONS

NotN 'et udiIg the failure of grow CTS to ge. DnntIl:il le returns Dn melOD shipments las. S<Hson, the prospects are that the acreage of next season it was last summer. The various as SociationS of growers in Imperial Valley have failed to unite in the Pro- ducers' Exchange, and cantaloupes will be marketed as before by com mission men. MT. Woods, who was in Fl Centro last week, reported that he had made contracts here and in Arizona for shipping about 800 cars and expected to sign up few hun dred more in the valley. He esti- mated the contracts of Lyons at Braw- ley at about 400 cars. Woods fig ures that he will handle at least half the valley crop. It is understood that the Woods Company and Lyons will have an arrangement by which they will avoid rushing large shipments in to the same market. Under the new form of contract presented by the Woods Company, the distributor fur nishes crates and wrappers and pays the grower an advance of 25 cents per crate at the platform.
 A detailed report of diversions of cars last season, compiled from the railroad records and furnished to the Press by MT Woods, shows that the crop was more widely distributed than had been supposed Following is a list of the points and the number of cars sent to each place,

PLAYED POKER FOR FUN
Attempt to Catch Gamblers in the
 Act Proves Legal Fizzle.

All El Centro has been haunting the Recorders court for the past two weeks and getting entertainment out of the efforts of Recorder Tout and Marshal Bradford to get legal action on bunch of poker players.
 Bradfords new deputy distinguished himself by shining up a rain.spout and falling through a window of the Hotel Oregon into poker game, which he pulled with great eclat. It was a nice five-handed game, all framed up to teach two strangers within the gates the vanity of full hands and the folly of opening jack pots with bobtailed flushes. When Hawkshaw the detective made his dramatic entry, the usual grab was made for what was in sight, and one of the strangers subsequently com plained that he was loser $49.20 on the pot that never was opened.
 The srangers pleaded ignorance of the ani-gambling ordinance, and they also pleaded guilty, paid fines of $25 each and went their way. The other prisoners pleaded not guilty and de- manded jury trials. They were Ike Casner, E. P. Rather and Harry Bol- lyn. Separate trials were demanded, and the fun began with demurrers, amended complaints and objections to venires on the ground that the Marshal was prejudiced against the defendants and could not be depended upon to summons impartial venire- men.
 Constable Hamilton managed to round up dozen jurors and Rather was put on trial. The officers testi- fled that the bunch was playing cards in locked room and had covered the transom with towel and. taken other precautions against publicity, and that when the room was raided the play CTS tried to hide in closets, but they could not swear that there was money upon the table.
 The theory of the defense was that the party was playing for fun and not for money, and half of the jurors accepted the theory that MT. Casner and two of his associates took the strangers into a room, locked the door and adopted other measures of secrecy for the pure innocent joy of playing make believe game of pc ker with matches for stakes.
 It was unnecessary to call expert witnesses to prove that MT. Casner doesn't know how to play poker, and the report that Bob Davis was ready to give such expert testimony proba- bly, was unfounded.
 The jury was evenly divided and could not agree, and the great poker case fizzled out with the discharge of the three defendants who had stood pat. The two who pleaded guilty and paid fines under the impression that they had played poker must have been subject to Authorizations.
