to be voted upon at the election June
5th. Mr. Wilson was entertained while
in the city by those who are prominent
in the suffrage movement and he was
escorted about town in an automobile
bedecked with yellow banners bearing
the words. vote Yes on June 5th." The
address was delivered on the street
corner out in front of the First Nation
al bank at s o'clock and the speaker
was introduced by Mr.. ]. B. Lyon. Only
small crowd was in attendance,
which was probably due to the fact
that very few people in this communi.
ty are interested in the movement.
While Mr.. Wilson is fine speaker he
did not present to his audience any
definite results obtained in other
states where suffrage has been grant
ed. He appealed more to the chivalry
of man to extend to woman the same
privileges which they themselves en-,
joy as citizens Of the great United
States. No special argument was pre-.
sented by the speaker in favor of the
cause and it is doubted whether lie
converted many votes to the cause.

Mr.. c. II. kunZe, q former resident
of Denison, but now living on fine
farm near Worthington, Minn., had a
narrow escape from being feeced out
of ten thousand dollars in cash by
some confidence men at Excelsior
Springs, Mo-, last Friday. it was
through the efforts of Sears McHenry
that the plans of the swindling gang
were thwarted.
From all reports it seems thata
swindling gang has been making head

past few weeks, and it was while MIR

many times larger than the original
investment that he telegraphed his

a fixed horse race and he had met the

the story OF a poor man who had just
won a hundred and twenty-five thous.
and dollars, who was travelling through
the country with a horse that could
beat anything" but some crafty Mis-
sourians had found fleet scrub that
could beat the racer whenever re.
quired. Mr.. Kunze was given chance
to see little of the fun. He watched
the "steerer" and his friends bring in
big sums of money until the whole
amount reached a hundred and five
thousand dollars. 1t is even said he
counted the greenbacks. knew they

Kunze was willing to invest a little
money on the race it was postponed
until Friday to give him chance to
get his cash. He was held in such
high esteem by his new acquaintances
that they managed to have the race
postponed, but it was impossible for
them to loan him the money to place
on the race.
After receiving telegram from his

serious and the philosophical, which

RAID CRAP GAME
SUNDAY NIGHT
Zig Raid Pulled of Sunday Night by
Marshal Weeks and Nightwatch
Greene-No Arrests Made.
RING LEADERS NOTIFIED TO STOP
Common Occurrence to Have Big
Game Pulled of Every Sunday
Big Money Changes Hands.

1t is generally understood that there
is a gambling ring in Denson, which
is fast growing in proportions until
it is already composed of from fifty to
seventy-fve members. Not only men
are engaged in the gambling, but it is
said that school boys not out of their
teens can be found with them
Crap shooting" seems to be the fav.
orite game among these masters of
high finance who improve their time
in some out Of the way place by trying
to win some one eises hard earned
money. 1t is said that it is not an un
common thing for as much as 100000
to change hands during one OF these
sessions.
Only last Sunday evening Marshal
Weeks and Nightwatch A. c. Greene
received two phone calls from parties
residing near the |. c. depot, advising
them that there was crowd at the
tower house that were gambling. At
10 O'Clock the two officers decided to
raid the place and journeyed down to
the tower. but they were seen by some
Of the confederates and the alarm was
given. The officers arrived just in
time to see the party break up. some
fleeing to the underbrush along the
river banks and others down the track
while one or two endeavored to hide
under the platform. When the officers
went into the tower they found moth.

Every effort should be made by the
local officers to put stop to this
gambling which has been so common
in the city for the past year. If nee
essary to break up the gang detect

man who indulges in it. Denison has
too much at stake to let its reputation
he dragged down because few ire
sponsible fellows have nothing else tc
do but play poker and shoot craps.

! ing them If they would accommodate
him with loan Of ten thousand dol
lars The Denison bank had accom-
modated Mr. kunze in the past and
knowing him to be reliable and well
to do farmer, sent him reply that
the loan could be arranged. Mr.
kunze arrived in Denison on the eve
ming train Thursday and went direct
lily to the home of Mr.. Sears McHenry
and, not finding him there, met him in
the private Office at the bank. He eX
planned to Mr. McHenry that he was
very anxious to secure ten thousand
dollars in cash Or draft for that
amount as he had deal on for sec,
ton of land near Excelsior Springs
which he would be able to purchase al
a most attractive price. He explained
every detail of the deal to Banker Nc,
Henry and it seemed SO plausible that
the loan was arranged, Mr.. McHenry
making out mortgage on Mr.. kunze's
land near Worthington, which was
properly signed and mailed to Mrs
Kunze for her signature. 1t was not
until Mr.. kunze expressed some sur
prise that he would not be allowed tc
take the cash itself to Excelsior
Springs. or a draft for the amount
himself. that Mr.. McHenry became
dubious, although he explained that
the money would be available at bank
at Excelsior Springs, where the deal
could be carried through. Mr.. McHen
ry explained that he would telegraph
the bank at Excelsior Springs to fur,
nish the amount specified when the
papers were drawn up. Mr.. kunze
left Denison on the 10:05 p. m. train
Thursday for Council Bluffs and was
to catch an early morning train out
of there for Excelsior Springs. After
Mr.. Kunze left the bank Mr.. McHenry

that it would be best to investigate
