days by maddened COW that had been
bitten by hydrophobia-stricken coy

liar actions Of the family's pet COW
They ran to their mother and the COW
pursued them Mother and children
rushed into their small cabin and
locked themselves in, while the mad
dened COW continued It's antics outside
For two days the COW remained just
outside the door 1t dropepd dead the

LESS BOUGHT OUTRIGHT

Discovering that cltizess Of the
city were violating the gambling
laws Of the state by playing cards
and shaking dice for the drinks and
cigars, and that confectioners are
breaking 1t by raffling OFF candy and
chewing gum, Councilman Jones.
chairman of the health and police
comittee has instructed Chief Of Po-
lice Hamilton to rigidly enforce this
law, and he is doing 1t to the letter.
In practically every saloon and ci-
gar store, card playing and the shak-
ing of dice has been allowed for
drinks and cigars time immemoriaI.
An effort was made to stop It year
or so ago, but 1t was just a tempor-
ary affair, but this is now going to be
permanent, according to reports.
Just how long the confectioners have
been following the inlQultous prac-
tice of raffling OFF candy and gum,
cannot be learned, but that also
comes within the purview Of the
gambling law and must be stopped.
In brief, that law reads that 1T shall
be unlawful to conduct any kind Of
games for any article of value where
an element Of chance is involved" I"
and candy and gum are articles Of
value, 1t seems.
Chief of Police Hamilton visited
the saloons and cigar stores yester-
day morning and ordered them to
put an end to card playing and the
shaking dice for cigars and drinks
and other articles OF value, and the
dice box has been packed away and
the packs of cards are used only
now by the bartender to play soli-
taire, Subsequently he visited the
confectioners and all the raffling
cards have been withdrawn and any
one desiring to buy candy for his
best girl or stick of gum, must now
come through with the cold, hard
cash.
