TO ABOLISH GAMBLING
House agrees to Bill FOrbidding
Betting IN District of Columbia.
The cornerstone was laid yesterday
LFron The Tribune Burean.


Washington May u.-By a unanimous vote the
House to-day agreed to the conference report on
the bill providing for the abolition Of all forms OF
gambling In the District of Columbia and bring
ing the career of TIE racetrack at Benning to an
abrupt close. Declaring that it was meritorious
measure, the minority leader dispensed with his
usual demand for a roIlcail, and the vote was
taken without discussion.
The bill provides that it shall be unlawful for
any person to gamble make book any sort
of a contest in the District OF Columbia, and as
the Benning track is just within the limits Of the
district it falls under the ban of the law. The
spring and fall meetings at that track have opened
and closed each racing season in the East for
many years and excellent sport has been
furnished the patrons. but the sentiment OF the
residents Of the district mas been so decidedly
against the continuance of racing that Congress
responded with to-day's law
One Of the officials of the Washington Jockey
Club. under whose direction the races have been
conducted. made the following statement at the
Capitol to-day: The Jockey Club made fight
against this BILL preferred to race where
there could be no objection. We purpose 10 build
a track and grandstand right across the dis
trict line IN Maryland and to the old track and
stables for training purposes We purpose TO con-
tnue the meetings here and will probably have
the new track ready in the fall

Laughter Aids Digestion.

II don't know whether nature fitted

man." remarked a magazine reader,
who looked up from the printed page.
Here is writer who sets it down as
a solemn fact that laughter and gUod
cheer are enemies of dyspepsia Now
whenever | go to dinner where lot
of good stories are told or amusing
speeches made and laugh more than
usual the result for me is an aggra-
waited attack of Indigestion. More
than this, and although | never drink

am certain to have an attack of hic-
coughs as result of laughing, which
always amuSes my friends who are
aware of my non-drinking habits. pre-
sent the anomalous picture of perhaps
being the only man at the table who
has not taken drink of any kind and
yet my actions are those Of man who
had decidedly too much liquor. You
can't make ME believe that old saw

TRAITS OF AFRICAN PYGMlES.
Explorers Tell or rec~l,ar les of Queer
Race of People.

Pygmies are climbers par excel
lence. The pygmy always gets up u
tree somehow If there are con : IL
lent vines he uses them, his big toes
serving as thumbs; if there are M
vines and the tree be tn n, he grasps
it with his hands and wa IS up; if The
tree be thick he grips with his legs
and nimbly works his way to the top.
The pygmy is a prayerful little maa.
During thunder storm he may be
heard imploring God to disperse il:
but if the storm only continues in vio-
lence he changes his entl eaty to beg
protection from violence. Maj. Pow
ell-Cotton's gunbearer saw a group OF
pygmies ir the forest seated in a wide
semi-circle, the men wearing their
okapi belts and the women their
beads and all their finery. They were
busily eating round table in the cen
ter. Each pygmy carefully placed
little packet of his particular prOYi
sion on the table, which was soon
laden with supply of bananas, honey.
and sweet potatoes. The pygmy
teachers explanation was that they
were changing camp and by this cerc-
monial feast, invoked the supreme
spirit to give them good luck in their
new hunting grounds.
