GOVERNMENT MAKES
RAID ON BUCKET SHOPS
Several Millionaires Were Among the
Captured in New York
Saturday.

New York.-The governments war
on bucket shops, forecasted from Wash
ington, began when at IL o clock Sat
urday morning special agents of the
federal government raided Offices in
this city, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
st. Louis.
Promptly at the stroke of the hour
20 keepers and employees of the bucket
shops were caught by the government
agents in conjunction with detectives
in the various cities, who were armed
with bench warrants issued upon indict-
ments which had been found in Wash
ington.
The government caught in its net all
but five of the men it was after. Those
who escaped had some mysterious word
of warning, but the government expects
to catch them within the next "a hours.
In the raid the special agents took
in five millionaires who have made their
fortunes from the bucket shop traffic.

Practical Education.

Senator Beverage, at the Gridiron

'fThese modern schools of journal

Beveridge. "'They inculcate enter

But let me tell you about my friend
Mack.
"Mack is in the secretary of state s
office. He holds ar important post
there. Once, during certain foreign
complications, Mack worked forty
eight hours drafting arguments, cabl-
ing, consulting secretaries and what
not; and at last, having achieved a
momentous and advantageous com
promise, Mack, thoroughly worn out,
went home to bed.
''In the middle of the night he was
awakened by the tinkle of the door
bell. He put his head out of the win
dow. A youthful voice said:
Z" Mr.. Mack, this is a reporter. Can
see you about the compromised
"Tired as he was, Mack assented.
He put on his dressing gown and
slippers, let in the reporter, and in his
cold drawing room he dictated quite
two columns to the youth, afterwards
having his dictation read over, and cor

dead with fatigue, and his teeth chat

ever, no regret, inasmuch as this com
promise was too important a matter to
reach the public in any incorrect oil
garbled form. No; Mack, having done
his duty, did not mind the personal dis
comfort that it had entailed.
=" And now, young man, good night,
he said, with chattering teeth. 'Yor

Improving Roads by Farming Then

To improve roads by farming them
is the unique plan of a middle west
good roads society.
1t seems the average width of public
highways in Minnesota, Wisconsin
Michigan, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska
Missouri, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio is
&c feet.
In Prussia, famous for its good
roads, the average is but % feet.
Giving America an allowance o
eight feet, it is the plan of this society
to reduce the width of the roads in
these 10 states to 80 feet and devote
the surplus SO feet to the growth OF
wheat. corn and other products indigo
nous to the district.
BY this process 100000 acres OF
tillable land win be created, which
valued at 500 an acre, will produce 8
landed capital of $25O,OoO, 900, which, a
per cent interest, will furnish an an
nual income of $12,500,000
1t is the idea of the society to plae'
this sum as a permanent fund for the
improvement and maintenance of thu
public highways, which will, in thei
opinion, result in the establishment o.
the finest road system in America.
