and fragrant assault upon the
law passed by the last assembly
against the commercialized gam

convicted bookmaker, Boazberg,
was released by Judge Prentice
D. Darlington, of the Jefferson
parish jurisdiction, on "a leave
of absence" which has since eX-
pired, without the gamblers re.
appearance, this gambler went
to Memphis and declared public
ly that the whole prosecution in
Jefferson and elsewhere was a |
hoax, that the victims of it were
assured that Governor Jared \.
Sanders would pardon them il
they were convicted.
The Governor denounced the
statement as untrue, and all con-
nected in any official way with
the proceedings also denounced
it as untrue, save the counsel for
the convicted gamblers.
The Item remarked at the
time that the best way to deny
such stories was to prove them
false by executing the law upon
the offenders against it. We
cannot imagine anything more
calculated to bear out the story
told by the fugitive tout than a
programme for the pardon OF
the three men in question.
District Attorney st. Clair
Adams, in prosecuting them, de
clared emphatically that he was
engaged in no test" case. The
law has been violated, he assert
ed, and am prosecuting mel
who have violated it with the Tx

jail and keeping them there.
1t was on that understanding
that Judges Chretien and Bake
sentenced the three gamblers t
Jail. These two courts, in othe

REUTER- JUMPS
HIS CONTRACT

Instead of going on to Pueblo, in
Colorado, by the baseball team OF
which town he had been signed on for
legal ball, Dick Reuter- was captured
by the pirates in San Francisco and
signed on with Cy Moreing's Oakland
outsiders.
The California League, although in
dependent of the baseball trust, seems
TO be making pretty good Roadway.
The opening games were well attended,
but there is nothing to show how long
it will last if the powers in the trust
get after it.
II is hard to say whether Dick has
made a mistake or not. 1t is pre-
sumed that he had considerable induce
ment to jump his contract and will
probably be getting more in the Bay
cities than he ever would in the
mountains.
Tho outlaws have been making hot
bids for material and have been offer
ing salaries that will run their CT
unfortunate if the trust got after tho
small league and busted it, Then
Dick would be out of job and barred
Dick has pitched in only one game
so far as the latest Coast papers 90.
This was against Red Dogs Santa
Cruz sand crabs, and he won the game
by the close score of 6 to 5, with seven
walks and six strike.outs.
Oakland is not very high up in the
league at present, but will doubtless
win more games when Dick is gives
more work to do. The baseball writer

PIONEER SEA
WREN LAUNCHED

Daintily and easily. as though just
getting what she had been waiting for,
dip into old Mother Ocean, the little
pioneer of the sea wrens slipped into
the water at Sorenson & Lyle's yard
yesterday afternoon at high tide. This
Ills the eighteen.foot elongated sea wreu
which ii. ID. Bowen has been building
in his private workshop during the last
three months, and the little craft looks
as pretty in the water as she did when
on the stocks, and the local yaehtsmeH
were admitting her clean lines and sea
worthy aspect.
As soon as she was fairly in the
water the owner and his assistants got
busy with the engine pipe connections,
which had not been fully completed,
and it was not long before the flywheS
was given turn and the boat shot
away from the shore at wonderfully
fast speed.
it is doubtful if ever small boat
has been launched in these waters over
which so much care and forethought
have been expended. The beam is that
of an ordinary sea wren, six feet nine
inches, but the length is four feet more
than the one.design boats, eighteen
feet, and there is n forward deck that
reaches from the bow-piece aft as far
as the end of the center-board casing
In the cockpit, roomy and com
Portable place, is set the engine--a
four horsepower, two-cycle, single-cyl-
inder machine. Mr., Bowen has 10 ar
ranged things that the engine and all
its filings are put into the smallest
space, and to the ordinary land-lubber
it appears impossible that there should
be so much power under the woodeH
frame which covers the machinery.
The cylinder protrudes about eight
cen inches above the floor of the cock
| pit, and this is covered with frame,
| the side and top of which are remov
] able, constructed very much on the
/ lines of hatch skylight. The top Of
| the cover is cut cOncavely to take the
shape of the exhaust muffler, which is
| fastened on it. The exhaust pipes and
feed pipes for water and gasoline are
covered with asbestos and painted, and
| they are led in such a way as to be
practically unseen.
The spark coil is inside the cover,
and the batteries are under one of the
| cock pit seats, while the gasoline tank
is forward of the mainmast. The con
troll, which is regulated by two smaii
levers on the side of the engi . has
extensions reaching to the outside of
the cover. so that one man can steer
and handle the engine with ease.
The boat, named, by the way, "Ke-
Hanlani,' will be yawlrigged, with
her jigger mast aft of the rudder post
No bumkin has yet been put in, nor
bowsprit, and Mr.. Bowen has not yet
determined whether he will have need
of either one.
The masts and sails are all ready for
stepping and bending, and this work
will probably be completed today. For
the present the little yawl sits in the
water exactly according to her water
line and looks what she doubtless will
prove to be, a miniature sea.going
