RAILWAYS IN JAPAN.
Filthy Cars and Dirty Stations In q
Land of Cleanliness.

Filthy Cars and Dirty Stations In q
Land of Cleanliness.
'eThe railway journey from Kioto to
Yokohama. despite the fact that most
beautiful country is traversed, Is not
the pleasantest OF experiences" de-
clares a writer in the Wide World.
"One buys a railway ticket in Japan in
installments.
The ordinary ticket only enables
one to go by train covering the mini
mum distance in the maximum time
so an extra express ticket is pur-
chased, which means that the engine
moves a little more quickly toward its
appointed goal.
Next platform ticket must be pro-
cured to enable one to board the train,
and finally one has to fight ones way
into a first class carriage. Why do all
the passengers in Japan take their Rug
gage into the already painfully small
carriage instead Of leaving 1t in the
van? And why, again. does a nation
that is a password for cleanliness the
world over possess a train service so
shockingly dirty in every detail?
I'VE once in a weak moment looked
into a station masters room at large
station, and for pure dirt it could have
given points to a dust heap. In the
train carriages the floors are covered
with the dirt of ages. cigarette ends,
orange peel. sandwich papers. At in
tervals a porter saunters in with
brush and leisurely sweeps all the
refuse into a corner. having first care
fully closed every window. so that no
atom of discomfort or infection shall
be lost.
Finally he departs. leaving behind
him the rubbish and an atmosphere
charged with germs and angry words.
Truly a japanese porter's definition of
clearing up is removing rubbish from
one place to another"

methods can be worked many times
during the evening, but the money
gained helps.
Another method adopted by some
who are unable to cheat, as profess
SIGNALS, is to play with a partner in
a game. When either of them has
a strong hand he mods to the other,
and he raises the pot, making the
winning of his partner more that it
would be without his help. With the
aid of partner in a game of poker
l can best any game in which there
are no professional gamblers.
But with all the cheating at the
cards the man with the streak of luck
is liable to win, that is, when he is
not in a game where the players are
too strong. If he has a run of luck
in the private games in which the
cheaters are amateurs he is liable to
get the money.
Still another means of cheating in
a game where there are professionals
to watch the play carefully, is for
one of the players to help his hands
with the aid of the discards of some
of the other players. l recall one in
stance when l was sitting in a game
with some women players. The pot
was opened and raised and l dropped
my hand, containing two queens. The
lady sitting next to me won the pot

Easy come, easy CO."

Easy come, easy CO."
The old weather-beaten phrase is
still the rule among the easy-money
getters, and will be as long as there
are "chumps" for them TO get their
money from, says the Oklahoma City
Oklahoman. They in turn buck"
some other fellows game and lose
what they have gained. The gambler
who has saved enough money to set
tie down and live in peace for the
fall" part of his life is seldom
found. Many have done this, but
they are in the minority.
A man who has gambled in nearly
all of the larger cities of the United
States and who has been in Oklaho-
ma City for a considerable length
Of time, tells of the tricks of the
trade" and how some of the easy
marks" are caused TO loosen from
their cash"
4 believe the game is dead in Ok
lahoma City and it is me for the big
towns" he said. Il am tired of the
little private games when you have
to be careful of the law. The game
seems TO be on the blink.
Whether it be the man on the in
side, or the dupe in the gambling
game. the material benefits derived,
even If the gains be large, are small

Figuring Tax LeVy.-R- w EnlFl-
kin, secretary of the board OF educa-
ton, is kept busy compiling figures on
which the annual tax levy for schools
is based. He will submit the figures
to the board at its meeting next Tues
day evening. After examining his re-
port the board will decide on the levy
and will forward it TO the township
treasurer of district No. IS, keeper OF
all school funds. From there the re
port is forwarded to the county clerk,
who includes the levy in the general
tax list.
Carried a RevoIVer.-John Wagner,
who has no home, befriended an indi-
vidual few days ago and it worked to
his disadvantage. Wagner was arrest
ed at 2:40 yesterday morning and he
will remain in this county 20 days more
at least A revolver found in his peck
ct is what got Wagner in trouble. He
was walking across the railroad tracks
in the east end and when two police
men approached he carelessly threw
his right hand to his hip pocket. This
aroused the suspicion of the officers
and they searched him. When they
found the weapon they suspected that
the man was a member of the holdup
family and they marched him to the
police station.
No Thefts Reported.-Circus day in
Moline was a quiet one. Not a theft
of any kind was reported to the police,
and not house was burglarized. The
police worked faithfully, the night men
going on duty at 10 a. m. and remaining
on duty till the following morning.
Approve School Pians.-The build
ings and grounds committee of the Mo
line school board met Thursday even
ing and finally approved Of the plans
for the new Ridgeview school, with
few alterations. The plans were drawn
by Architect Whitsitt. The committee
will probably decide to advertise for
bids at once, but the date of opening
bids has not been decided as yet. How
ever, it will be early enough so that
work on the new building
can be started very shortly.
