SHOT THE GAMBLER DOWN IN COLD BLOOD pose. Then. after taking up collec- ton for Mrs. Miller and another for headstone for her husband, the meet ing adjourned
 There were lawless characters in Royal Flush who expressed themselves much pleased with this proposed ad- vent of the law. The reason for their satisfaction was that when the vigi. lance committee took them in hand they were pretty sure to get their deserts That the committee occasion ally made a mistake and punished an innocent citizen did not concern them. As soon as the court was organized and the lawyers arrived the lawbreak- CTS considered all restraint removed. One of the worst of them Mike Flynn, having a grudge against a professional gambler, Light Fingered Jim, as be was called. waited week for the new order to be established before taking his revenge. then shot the gambler down in cold blood in the center of the town. Re at once gave himself up for trial
 There were three witnesses who had seen the shooting Bin Evans was the first of these who was called upon by the prosecution. He had stood within hundred yards of the two men and had seen the whole affair from start to finish His story was that Flynn had approached "Light Fingered Jim from behind and shot bim in the back.
 When the attorney for the defense took the witness" he held up before him a thaumatrope, which Is a card with bird sketched on one side and a cage on the other By means of two strings. one on each end of the card, be revulved 1t rapidly and asked the witness what he saw The answer was "a bird in cage" The lawyer then showed the thaumatrope to the | jury and said:

 The case against Miller had been so ploip that no one but a fool or one interested in defeating justice could fail to see that be was guilty.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 19.-In dis
cussing President Taft's decision to
abrogate the treaty with Russia, the
Novoe yremya says today:
'"The president has tactfully chosen
the best way out of the scandalous
Jewish agitation which has been rag
ing in his country for long time. In
cidentally his decision demonstrates
that the Jewish bankers are the real
lords of the United States"
The Novoe Vremya is the govern

sentiment of Russia officialdom.
