p. H. Neidig, the Proprietor,
Must Also Face Charge
Amcl Thornton Caught Sealing Cop
per Wire From G. NJ. and II. Linc-.-
Is ArTalgncd and Held to the Grand
Jury--Policc Notes

The police never realized that so
many professional men were fond of
poker until they raided the room
conducted by Peter Neidig on north
Main street last night. An even dozen
were trapped in the cozy little poker
den and among them were faces quite
familiar to Marion public.
The raid was made shortly after
IL o'clock Tuesday night. After max
ing sure that the "big" game was in
progress, Captain Bond assisted by
patrolmen Babcoek and wilhelm,
knocked gently on the outer door and
were quietly admitted One table over
which six men were flashing the red
white and blue chips, was visible.
Six spectators were deeply interested
in watching a travelling man take
in the coin. The occupants of the
room we're not a little bit surprised
when they looked into the determined
faces OF the trio Of policemen.
The police quickly informed Mr..
Ihete uOuSt WdS
and instructed him to appear before
Mayor Scherff at o'clock Wednesday
afternoon. The occupants of the room
were also given their instructions
and they will also appear Wednesday
afternoon in Mayors court. Captain
of Police Link Bond will file affidavits
against the parties at that time.
The officers who visited the poker
room found it located directly over
Neidig's restaurant, in the rear part.
The quarters were first class in every
respect and neater, cleaner or bet
ter furnished room for "the favorite
game" could not be found anywhere.
The police gained possession Of a
number OF poker chips which will
be placed in evidence.

ton. The body removed from the base of
the oak about rs years ago. 1t never should have
been removed.
1t is said that Washington selected the place
where his body now lies and left instructions
that one day the change of sepulcher should be
made The oak which guarded the first grave
must have been standing for three centuries.
The view from the place is inspiring enough to
enkinde the eyes of dead man. The view from
the new tomb is fine in its way but it is moth
ing to the grand sweep of river hilltops and for
ests which moves before the eye from the place
where Washington slept for 80 years
Hundreds of visitors go to Mount Vernon
daily They peer into the tomb and then
straightway go TO the house. There is inter
est of course, which must attach to any of the
belongings of Washington, but it seems be
legitimate matter of regret that of the thousands
who go to Mount Vernon the interest in the mir
TOR which Washington used when he shaved and
in the spoon with which he ate his porridge if
he ate porridge is far greater than in the forest
trees under which he walked and in the garden
whose hedges of formal cut planted with
his own hand.
Indoors at Mount Vernon everything is dead;
outdoors everything is alive. The forest and
garden are instinct with Washington; the con-
tents of the house are dust
There a real interest however in the
library of the old home. In the main the books
are simply copies of those which were on the
shelves in Washington's time. The originals, as
understand it, in several Libraries of the
country There two originals, however,
which open at the title page, so that if the
light be good may read Washington's name
written in his own hand and the title of the book
