The Board Of Directors OF the new

nine members. For the present six OF
these will be elected by thc bondholders
and three by the stockholders. but when

bondholders will elect -four of the direc-

IN remarkable how those fellows night

These gangs are always nghtinG for

They are always ready with their guns
They are also prepared for hold-ups. and

Most of the bank" houses went out

could not make II pay. The bank

penses. One OF the places that was
the last to close was run b. a man
who at one time did n very prosperous
business. I was In there one night
and sat for . long while. There WAS
one player In the place. and no had
bought a $50 stack at the faro table. He
played all night, as I was told later.
ana quit a " winner. In the mean
time. he had consumed about 81 worth
OF cigars and Is worth OF booze. And
ne was the only player the house had
light. Fine business.
This new element that has come in

made n big change. The members OF
these ~gangs'go in almost entirely for
crap. which the old timers do not take
to. Neither do tho men whose faces
