in the dock while other cases were be-
ing disposed of.
Little Dorothy Malakanoff was on her
way to school the morning of February
II last when Treschenko met her near
the corner of Twenty-third street and
Potrero avenue and shot her 1t was

One Of Greatest Cue Experts
To Be Seen in Action

Willie Hoppe. one of the world s
greatest exponents at billiards, who is
to give a series of exhibition games at
, the Graney billiard hall, beginning to-
morrow night, has been playing the
game since he was years old. He
is now % years old. and 10 years of
his life he has spent mastering the
great game. He stands out today as
probably the master of the pastime.
Hoppe is a cleancut chap and an in
teresting character. He has hardly
reached the height of his career,~for it
was only last June in Minneapolis that
he made his greatest record, which goes
! to show that he is steadily improv-
ing his game. On that occasion he
made run of 3e5 in the 1s inch balk
line game, two shots in balk.
Hoppe takes particularly good care of
! himself and he realizes that it Is only
when he is in thes tittest shape that
he can make the ivdries dance for him.
intoxicants and makes 1t a habit OF
keeping good hours. Such pastimes as
rowing and driving e., horses he never
muscles of the arms works injurious
effects on a billiardist.s
Hoppe carries his own cues and
chalk with him. He says he finds much
trouble with the billiard. balls in va
rious towns where he plays. He says
some of the balls are actually square
to his eye He does not carry his
own billiard balls, because the change
in atmospheric conditions has an effect
on the worries that makes them use
less for good work.
Hoppe is an ardent admirer of the
national pastime and plays the game
himself. He is said to be good enough
for any minor league team. Hoppe
will play Joe Carney and Ben Saylor
while he is here

that this church will be in the very

this purpose the whole community

There has been very heavy sup

BISHOP QUAYLE WILL SPEAK
FOR METHODISTS FRIDAY.
Famous Preacher to be Here for an
Evening Sermon.

Another Interesting page in the
history of the Methodist church in

and on Friady evening the plans
that have been working for some
months will eliminate in a rally, at
which time the eloquent Bishop
Quayle will preach. and present an
opportunity for the church member
ship and friends to cover all out
standing indebtedness by subscrlp-
tion. We feel that the general inter-
est Of the public in the work Of the
church., the large place 1t occupies
in the community will be sufficient
excuse for a brief statement Of the
church's work and purpose.
At the time of dedication 1t was
thought that the subscription taken
before that time and that taken on
dedication day, would a little more
than cover the indebtedness, but ow-
ing to the fact that other improve
ments which wers not included at
that time were found necessary and
that some of the Indebtedness was
placed to be raised by the Incidental
offerings Of the church. which was a
mistake, and the other fact that the
subscription was not an interest pro-
duclng subscription. and BY the nat
ural shrinkage Of the subscription,
the church now finds that II win need
at least the sum Of $4,000 in order
TO provide for all uncovered indebted

7 With Bets Of Gloves and Candy

Gambling Bill Is Given Hard Blow
BY the Court.
(By Associated Press.)

Albany, N. Y, Nov. 9.-Betting is a
crime only when accompanied by a
record, registry or the use of some
part of the paraphernalia Of the pro-
fessional gamblers, according to a
decision handed down today by the
court Of appeals. In effect the decis-
ion holds that oral betting does not
constitute book-making in violation
of the so-called anti-race track
gambling laws recommended by Gov
ernor Hughes. Court affirms the or
der of the lower court for discharge
from custody of Orlando Jones and
Sol. Lichtenstein, who were indicted
in Kings county on the charge of
bOok-making.
/, In holding the laying Of odds alone
does not constitute a crime, Judge
Haight says:
/ tIf man should offer to bet the
ladies of his party a pair Of gloves
to a box of candy, it would be laying
5of odds and publishing same. To
hold him to be book-maker, would
.iIi my judgment, be departure from
81 rule which gives to the terms of
the statue their ordinary and accept
ed meaning, and would be con-
struction which was not within the

Kansas City, Nov. 9.-Reiterating
his declaration that neither he nor
the monetary commission of which
he is the head has any pet scheme
of financial reform, Senator Aldrich
tonight in this city dwelt at some
length upon some of the advantages
of the European banking systems
over the customs in the United
States.
He spoke after a dinner by the
Clearing House association at the
Baltimore hotel.
Mr.. Aldrich found in the reserve
system the most striking character
istics Of the European banks. He
said that the central banks of Eng
land, France and Germany, the Bank
of England, the Bank of France and
the Reichs Bank hold all the resour-
ces of all the banks of their respec-
tive countries.
He pointed out that there is no
legal requirement rendering it neces-
sary for the foreign banks to keep
in their vaults so large a percentage
as is necessary in the United States
and that the subordinate banks re-
gard money in the central institution
just as available for their reserve
purposes as if it were in their own
hands.
