Too Bad for Man in DRY" Town

The sly fellow who has been ship
ping in wet goods under some aris-
tocratic merchandise title. such as
soap" "suar." etc. is now strictly up
against it.
Uncle Sam has just handed down a
decision that is said to be directly
aimed at just such business.
Hereafter all employees of railroads
as well as the railroads themselves
who accept and bill freight consign-
ments OF merchandise under any other
billing but the actual contents of the
consignment will be held liable by the
courts Of the United States as well as
the party who makes the false state
ment to the railroad employe.
So everybody will have 70 use the
right label hereafter or have a day Of
reckoning with Uncle Sam.-Grand

English Women. Gambling Mania.

An ultra-smart womans club was
planned for London. All of the lead
ing women of the British social aris-
tocracy were expected to join. Almost
at once $50 of these women signed as
charter members. Queen Mary was
asked to become one also.
The English queen is opposed to
gambling in all forms, and especially
by women. Her reply to the invitation
was that she would consent provided
there should be no card rooms.
OF course the invitation to the queen
could not be withdrawn; neither could
her wishes be disregarded. The club
was not formed. When it became
known that there would be no gam
bling 40 of the $50 charter members
withdrew their name.
This little story is in itself about all
the commentary it requires. 1t shows
conciusively the hold that gambling
has upon British high society" so
called. Nothing else could do this so
illum natingly.
When it becomes necessary to have
gambling in order that club of the
leading society women in England may
even be formed, the fact is most
caustic illustratioa of the moral de-
cadence OF the British social aristoc.
