Molly Burton was a western woman
iof the early days. when every man
was a gambler, a horse thief, a miner
! or something worse than any of these.
Molly kept a boarding house and was
Ihail fellow we'll met with her board
ers, who were all men. There was
nothing squeamish about Molly, but
she was considered perfectly straight.
/ The only dissipation she INDUCED in
was gambling, and this with her was
a passion. If she had dollars to stake
she would play dollars; if she had
cents it would be penny ante. She al
ways played a fair game and would
take no charity from any one. Once
when an opponent bet to lose pur-
posely in order to enable her TO re-
coup she told him that If he did it
again there would be no more play
between them.
Jim Hodson was miner who had
struck 1t big. It was while he was de-
yeloping a claim that he came to Mol
" Burton's house to board. She used
to play penny ante with him, but
would never consent to a considerable
stake. She said that he needed all his
money TO get his claim in condition
to offer on the market She also saw
to It that he did not fall into the
hands Of card sharps. If she saw him
playing with one Of the fraternity shB
would ask him for loan, thereby get
ting his money out of hts hands.
One day Hodson struck a vein that
made his property very valuable. A
company was formed which gave him
a large block of stock with plenty
Of cash down He accepted the posi-
ton Of superintendent. When not en-
gagged in his duties at the mine he
played cards at Molly Burton's. De
spite all her efforts to prevent it he
was soon stuck for some 10000. Molly
played with him in order to keep him
from playing with any one else. re
knew she would take no charity from
him. so he played to win. In the long
run they stood nearly even.
One day a man got hold of Hodson
and was playing him for all he was
worth when Molly interfered. From
that time forward Molly kept Hodson
playing with her all his spare time,
and it soon came to be noticed by
those who overlooked the game that
she was cheating him. This caused
great surprise, because Molly was
known to be square with every one, /
especially Jim Hodsou. No one said
anything to her victim about her ma
nipulation of the cards. That was none
of their business, and any Of them
would gladly see her gain,
1t was not known to any one be /
sides Hodson and Molly how much of |
his money she was relieving him of, /
but it was considerable. One night /
when they were playing together I
alone Jim said to Molly; /
IF you clean me out, MolI. whatJl /
you do with the funds2"

Leipzig Germany. ~ Correspond
ence Of the Associated Press. One
. OF the curious effects OF the war has
/ been to reduce the number Of loans
made by the poor Of the city at the
municipal pawn establishment, and to
/ increase the number of redemptions
/ Of property already pawned.
/ The explanation is that most Of the
/ loans, in peace time, are made by wo-
men; that most of the women are the
wives of men now in the field; and
/ that never in peace time have these
women had as large an income as
they do now that most Of their hus-
bands earnings come to them to sup
plement what they themselves can
make.
In the y months just preceding the
war the municipal pawn shop made
approximately 100000 loans on arti-
cles ranging from siiyer-headed canes
to babies shoes. The exact number
for the last Il months has not as yet
been compiled, but the director of the
establishment is authority for the
statement that the number probably
will run closer to 200 900 Incidental
~ the money loaned will not, either,
reach the figures OF the year before.
The usual rate OF redemption. In
normal, peace time, ts astonishingly
high as pawn shops go. With a nor
NAL Of almost a quarter Of a million
loans year, It is seldom that more
than 10000 articles have to be auc-
toned off. The number usually runs
between $4,000 and $4,000 This year
it will be still smaller because Of the.
increased number Of redemptions.
Leipzfg's loan establishment is
huge affair, and is conducted along
much the same lines as a few institu-
tons in America that make a special
ty Of encouraging redemption by ad-
yancing little, and by charging a low
rate Of interest. The city Of Leipzig.
however, incorporated a new feature
by charging u per cent d year, and
then by returning to the borrower
everything above the interest charges
that may be procured by auctioning
off the pledge when It has not been
redeemed.
women are by far the most frequent
customers, and rarely offer anything
OF great value. A prosperous loan es-
tabllshmeut would scott at the watch (
es and jewelry that find their wav to |
the municipal pawn shop" and would |
refuse 10 accept the clothing. even
bedding and household utensils. that
are offered. That they are taken by !
the city's establishment is one of its |
virtues, for with them many a needy /
person can get temporary relief that
she could not obtain elsewhere.
The haggling, arguing methods Of +
the private loan Office are noticeable /
by their absence in the Yorkplatz es-
Enlistment. The women enter nv a
