SLEDCE IS
WELDED
BY RAIDERS

While two pairs and four of kind
and royal flushes and bobtail flushes
and straights and threes of a kind and
cutter cards and all that kind of dope
were in the air last evening, in an up.
stairs room on Third street, between
Chickasha and Kansas avenues, a
bunch of officers from both the city
and the county departments came
through the doorway by the sledge-
hammer route and gathered the ones
engaged in the innocent amusement
of skinning each other out Of sum-
mers' salaries under their protecting
wings and escorted them to the Hotel
de Hodge Bailey, together with all the
furniture, the appurtenances and ap-
pliances in sight.
The raid was conducted by Deputies
Bob Castleman and Hugh Hogue OF
the sheriff's office and Officers Bob
Boles and Lee Tuck from the police
department.
In making the raid the officers
failed and neglected to use any inno-
cent open sesame in the matter Of
gaining admittance to the room
wherein the tiger dwelt No gentle
taps were applied to the doors PAN
els; no whispered words of asking
was "any one at home" On the con-
trary the officers used large and
perfectly competent and thoroughly
qualified sledgehammer in lieu of a
Lole card. They opened the door with
this hammer and arranged with the
players at the round table to surren-
der the contents of the room, includ-
ing themselves and s3.15 of perfectly
legal money of the United States.
In the little back room at the jail
now reposes, as a part of the fruits
of the raid, one round top table, ten
or twelve chairs, a number Of we'll
used cuspidors, a crap table, a dresser
with mirror attached, a mattress OF
questionable reputation, high chair
for use of the gamekeeper at such
times as the festive bones might roll,
and other equipment.
This morning Deputy Castleman ap-
peared before Judge Moore and swore
to complaints charging gaming" and
the defendants will probably appear
in court this afternoon.

cussing the why's and wherefores of

''fifty-fifty" on the proposition with a
chance that the deciding vote may
come across in favor of the timepiece.

decide to install the clock they will
bet on the best that the funds avail
able will purchase. One of the council
members favors buying a clock which

striking the quarters and halves with
rhyming chime while it will toll forth
an announcement of the fleeting hours
with clarion tones which may be heard
from the farthest environments of the
city on the one side to the likewise
environments on the remaining sides
of the city. Another council member
opposes this and says that in his OPP
position he has the mental concur

sword and the mirror are kept, are
opened and the offering spread before
the altar. Then will enter the en-
