that pool and billiards are not given

Der of people daily engaged in the
sport Keokuk has quite large army
of players, but heretofore practically
no attention has been given the game.
Now that league has been formed it
is expected that people will turn their
attention to it and follow the science
and progress from this time on. It is
interesting to note the large army Of
followers the cue games have in the
United States. There are approximate
ly $4,000 billiard parlors in the coun,
try including public and private halls,
lodges, M. G. A. and the like. In
smaller cities there are fewer tables,
while in larger cities they are more
numerous, but the number in all would
reach the 100000 figure. Each OF
these tables to be self supporting
must bring in an income of two dol
lars per day The average charge is
fifty cents per hour. That means
that not less than four men per table,
and minimum of 100000 men

lizards and pool one hour each day.
That vast army is required to pay
the running expenses of 10000 rooms.
The same men do not play pool Or bill
lizards every day. and it is safe, there
fore, to estimate those who actually
play the game two or three days
every week at not less than $1,000 600.

Sinner REPEN7S;
MONEY RETURNED
Party Who Entered DrexeI Hall Tues
day Night and Robbed Resiser,
Makes Partial Return
Of Money.
DOES IT THROUGH PRIEST
Very Rev. James GilIispie, Pastor Of
st. Peters Summoned Pro-
prietor Gray-Prose-
cution at End.

The person who carried away two
money bags containing about forty
dollars from the Drexel billiard hall
Tuesday night is repentent.
Last evening Proprietor Thomas P.
Gray received summons from Very
Rev. James Gillespie, pastor of st.
Peters Catholic church, the character
OF which he did not know at the time.
Arriving at the pastors home he was
rewarded by the return of twenty del
lars, or just about half OF what was
stolen, and received the promise that
the balance Of the stolen money would
be returned in full at an early date.
In return Mr. Gray promised that all
prosecution will be dropped, although
he himself, and possibly no one else
but the priest is aware OF the per-
sons identity. Mr.. Gray has fulfilled
his part of the agreement, having no
titled Marshal Henry Kesselring to
prevent any attempts to apprehcnd
the party.
Tells Part of Story.
Mr. Gray's visit to the parish house
of Father Gillespie resulted in him
learning few of the details ssof the
robbery. 1t seems, according to the
priest, that the party. for there was
but one intimately associated with
taking the money, was under the in
fuence of liquor at the time. He
committed the act and then it is
thought went and spent quite part of
the money with friends During the
day he realized the full gravity of his
crime and grew repen ,nt Visiting
Father Gillespie he confided in Lin
and turned over twenty dollars-all he
had left after night of carousing on
ill-gotten goods.
Near to Pastor.
In speaking to reporter about the
matter today Mr.. Gray voiced in
strong manner the close confidence
which the party had in the pastor of
st. Peters Catholic church. He was
not reticent about expressing his
views as to this phase in the Cath
Ollie religion, which, he says, works
greater good than anything else. The
complete confidence that this man had
in the pastor and the fact that he
went and truthfully told the whole
story, will serve to materially change
him, and make his unlawful act prob
ably the last one that he will COM
nit, according to further views ex-
pressed by this ex-United States mar
shall.

FOR $4,000 BECAUSE MAYOR

Suit was filed against the city of
Tampa this afternoon by the trustees
of the central trades and labor as
sembly for $4,000 damages, says a

weeks during the strike to preevnt
gatherings, and by damage done to
furniture and the loss of valuable

The temple was closed some weeks
