Person. Who Offer or Give Tip. a.

Signs Saying "No Tipping Allowed"

Des Moines, June 21.-Those persons
of living by soliciting and accepting
gratuities, and those persons who cur
~ favor and attention by the giving OF
tips, will be without occupation after
July 4, if the giving and accepting of
tips may be classed as an occupation.
On the nations birthday the Hage-
man bill, which was passed by the last
legislature, becomes law, and 1t not
only absolves the general public from
giving tips but prohibits the accept
ance Of them and provides as penal
ty fine or Imprisonment for those who
violate any of it's sections.
Penalty For Tipping.
The new law provides that every
employe of any hotel, restaurant. bar
bershop, or other public place, and
every employe of any person, firm,
partnership or corporation. or any pub
lie service corporation engaged in the
transportation of passengers in this
state who shall accept or solicit any
gratuity. tip. or other thing of value
or of valuable consideration. from any
guest or patron, shall be guilty of
misdemeanor, and on conviction there
of shall be fined not less than IS, or
more than s25. or be imprisoned in the
county Jail for a period not exceeding
thirty days.
Every person who shall give or offer
any tip or gratuity to any person or
employee prohibited from receiving or
soliciting them, shall be guilty of
misdemeanor and shall be punished on,
conviction as provided by law.
"No Tipping Allowed"
The person who shall knowingly per-
NIT violation of this act in any place
under his control. or who shall fail to
keep conspicuously posted in every
place under his control a notice bearS
ing the words mo Tipping Allowed"
shall be deemed guilty Of misde-
meanor and he shall be punished as
prescribed by this act.
The law is said to be the most dras-
tic Of any Of the multiplying laws
passed by any Of the states. 1t will
operate to cut of goodly part Of the
revenue Of porters on sleeping and
dining cars running between this city
and Chicago. and vice versa, unless the
tipping is done III Illinois.
Porters in barbershops also will be
sufferers unless they make charge
of Ave cents for brushing the cloth

restaurant walters and other help em-
ployed in public places will lose much
Of their income by reason OF the law.

ours to us that 1t is In the power OF

might drug him with an insidious drink
which would put him out OF his mashie

There are only few ways in which

However. it is a fortunate circum- :

Mr.. Geist has so arranged matters that
he can not win. 1t is understood that
he is going to pay the money in any
event which may render harsh meas
