CONVENTION WEEK
WITHOUT A THEFT
Remarkable Record OF Chicago Dur
ing the Recent Big Gathering.

Chicago, June 24,-With 10000 Wis
itors here during convention week,
Chicago has the remarkable record OF
not single theft reported. That Is
what is possible under clean admin
istratiOn and police force free from
politics and commanded by a brainy,
resourceful chief.
The sole scandal of the entire con-
vention week was the packing of the
Coliseum by grafters without tickets
on Thursday, and this was due, 1t is
claimed. to the fact that the doors
were manned by a lot of Democrats,
who secured their position through
political trade,
one hundred and five pickpockets,
confidence men and other criminals,
who boldly came to Chicago to follow
their respective callings, were ar
rested in the two days preceding the
opening OF the convention and were
sent 10 the House of Correction and
County jail for safe keeping.

The son of a Minister.

Grover Cleveland was born at Cald-
well, Essex county, New Jersey,
March IS, 1887. He was OF English
parentage on the paternal side, his
father being Richard Falley Cleve-
land, descendant of an English silver
smith who settled in New Jersey. His
mother was Ann Neal, the daughter
of a wealthy Baltimore merchant of
Irish descent.
Cleveland's father was a Presbyter-
ian minister and soon after the birth
of the son the family moved to Syra-
cuse, New York. Grover entered the
public school at Syracuse and later
attended an academy. During vaca-
tons he worked in a country store to
obtain money with which to continue
his education, for the family was not
unduly blessed with money, and
CleYeland's rise from obscurity to the
highest position in the land was a
continual battle.
From Syracuse he went 10 Clinton,
where he entered an academy and
pursued his studies several years. He
was then given a position as clerk and
assistant teacher in the New York In
stitution for the Blind, in which his
older brother was employed as a

in devising means OF getting rid OF

fective after a number Of other ex-
pedients had been resorted to and
failed.

Teheran, June 24.-It has been
generally confirmed that the first shot
in yesterdays engagement between
the Parliament and the shah's troops
was fired by members of the Adju-
mans, or political clubs. The shah's
soldiers early in the morning sur

demanded that certain persons whose
arrest the shah had ordered, be hand
ed over to them.
This demand was refused by the
Parliament and several shots were
fired at the troops. Artillery was
then brought up and the lombard

The shah rather reluctantly proclaim

Alleged Effect Of the Pending Anti
Betting Bills.

NEW YORK. March 23.-If the Agnew-
Hart ant-betting bills are passed. 1t is
said, the proposed new law will cause
the poolroom men to open wide their
doors in this and other cities in the state
Of New York for the simple reason that
they will not be liable. One of the big
gest poolroom men here said, in explana-
ton of the proposed legislation:
at will be a crime to make a record
OF bet. punishable by Imprisonment for
not more than one year. That Will be
a death blow to bookmaking at the race
tracks, for all wagons are recorded open
ly. But the poolrooms can run wide open
without fear of arrest or conviction I'M
der the proposed law, as the room keep
ers do not now and never will make a
public or private record Of wagers made
with them. Possibly the men who are
anxious to kill betting do not know how
wagering in the pooirooms Is carried on.
In the first place. in order to make a
bet in poolroom man writes out on
a blank piece of paper the name of the
horse he wishes to back. the amount of
his bet. accompanied by the cash and
his name or initials or number. He
pushes the slip and the money through
surrounded by black cloth that 1t is i'm
possible to see the man who accepts the
bet
Now. as a matter of fact the man who
makes the bet records II h1mSe1, not the
roomkeeper. who simply places the slip
and the money in a box set apart for the
horse that is backed. He does not make a
record of the wager on a sheet or In
book, but simply depends on the bet
tors slip. If the horse wins the bettor
writes out another slip. duplicate of
the first one. and pushes 1t through an
other pigeonhole where the cashier Of the
room is stationed If the slip corre-
spends as to the amount Of the wager and
the initials. name or number. the. bet is
paid without disclosing the identity Of the
cashier In case of raid under the pro-
posed law 1t is clear that there would be
no evidence upon which to hold room
keeper. for the reason that no records of
any wagers made by him would be found
in his possession.
The Agnew-Hart bills. as amended, do
not provide punishment for the bettor, but
the layer who records the wager. On
the strength of that man who makes
q bet in poolroom, even though he in
nocently recorded the bet himself. could
not be held while the roomkeeper would
be allowed to go scot free because Of
lack Of evidence. We have consulted sew
eral lawyers on this point and have re-
ceived assurance that we can run practi-
cally wide open while the bookmakers al

ing ever since the passage of the Percy

Before he left for the continent. An
thony had one long talk with Sybil. He
submitted to her what he had arranged
for her and her mothers rooms at Cam
marleigh Abbey, and asked her II there
was anything further that she could sug-
gest.
Your uncle is really quite wonderful
he said, with a perfectly grave coun-
tenance when I told him that I had
ordered small Ibach grand for your
sitting room he was delighted"
"A funny thing said SybI, looking at
him with her eyes half closed. lis that
although Uncle Percy does all these
things he appears to hate being reminded
of them
THAT is so often the case with really
charitable people, don't you think So,
II should like to know" said Sybil.
why you are able to make Uncle Percy
do exactly as you like

actly as l like?"

but / am not. Has the mystery about
you anything to do with him."
Anthony smiled.
That is part of the secret which only
my wife will be told
Il don't see any particular reason for
your telling your wife,. said Sybil. but
you should tell me-
You mean that because / love you I
ought to do anything that you ask me

And you said you were romantic

"Oh. but you are always talking about
romance"
Yes. but I've talked myself out of It's

happy without understanding each other.
Besides, no two people ever understand
each other until they are married. That
is why there are so many unhappy mar
nages.
Anthony spoke of marriage out Of def
erence to SYPHILIS sex and youth. What
he really meant was that no two people
could understand each other till they had
had the opportunity Of investigating each
others sex psychology. and even then 1t
might have the opposite effect and con-
fuse the issues.
You won't tell me them"
why do you want to know? At least
don't answer, I'll tell you why you want
feeling that you have an exceptional
power over me, and when l had allowed
you to triumph you would despise me for
having given myself away for nothing"
Well, | can't marry you: can IT,
NO So don't you think the kindest
thing would be to have mercy on me?"
This was a very brilliant stroke on An
thongs part. for an appeal for mercy
to woman In matters of the heart Is al
ways certain to be of little avail. and II

but a poor moth flutterinE round the
flame she would PROBABLY play with him.
or imagine she was doing so. till she
realized too late which was the moth and
which the fame. Thinking. therefore.
that Anthony was vulnerable to her at

whole battery OF her destinations upon

young to realize that when her last shot
had been fired the citadel would remain

she said. with light laugh
Yes.
And whom do you think you will
marry?
Somebody very rich and somebody
very beautiful"
Really? AS a rule heiresses require
