"spend his roll" on various amusement
devices which will be provided, among
which may be mentioned a roulette
wheel, faro, poker, "21'', and other
games long since supposed tob extinct
IN these parts. For those who are not
'sportively" inclined and who do not
care to buck the tiger" there will be
the old typical 40 bar, with Keno Nc
Connell as head thirst-quencher, and
any topper, habitual or Intermittent
who longs for glass of something
from grape juice to coco. cola-or any
thing else in the line of prohibition
liQuor--will find the old days lived
over again. The mahogany bar with
the convenient brass rail at the stand
ard height will be in evidence again
despite local options inroads. Drinks
