had read in the papers that Chicago is
the ideal summer resort town. He
came here to get the advertised air and
the joys of riding on the street cars,
wandering around the parks and bath
ing and boating in the lake.
HE got on one of the little steamers
| that ply from Randolph street to Lin
coin park yesterday. and there he met
chatty stranger from California The
latter had come to Chicago because of
heart trouble, but was able to point out
| many objects Of interest, airships, sub
marines and other things,
J There's the government pier, jut-
| ting out from Mr. Lincoln's park he
observed. That's where they take care
| of {, lot of the incest old G. A. r. vets

at them?'
''They landed on the pier. They met
nice old fellow who was the guardian
of the G. A. r. men He admitted it.
The G. A. Rs. We're all fishing. 1t was
| surprising how young some of them
looked.
"The guardian had a neat little con-
trivance which he said it gave him
pleasure to operate in his spare time.
| 1t consisted of a camp stool. a pea and
three halves of walnut shells.
| "'See, I put the pea under one of
these shells and you try to guess which
| one it's under. It's great fun.
| David Bull easily picked out the pea.
| The guardian was very clumsy, tho
equally confident. He offered to bet
Bull IS he couldn't get it again.
Here said the Californian, putting
a IS bill in Bulls hand, bet him-he's
/ got lots OF money Don't be afraid
Bull won $40. Then he lost all he
had, $50. 1t was at this juncture that
! the policeman strolled up and threat
ened Mr.. Bull for gambling unless he
got on another boat and went back to
the city. Chicago had no desire to
arrest visitors, the policeman said.
Later Bull identified in the detective
bureaus gallery the picture Of Edward
Hall as that of the Californian And
a federal warrant has been taken out
for Halls arrest. The swfndle was

sas, hereby servie notice that we will
not make any allowan ,es under the

THAT law was made to keep poor
women and children from suffering"

eral notified the governor that it was
mandatory upon every board of coun-
ty commissioners in Kansas to pro-
vide the pensions and that no board
may ignore the law He also sent
brief but pointed letter to the Jeffer-
