Santa Fe, Feb. s. When Mrs,
Smith Jones gives a bridge party at
her fashionable home and offers as a
prize for the high score a cut glass
vase which the guests observed in the
window of the ten-cent store only last
Thursday, she and all of her guests
who participate in the struggle for the
trophy, are, under the law of New
Mexico at the present time, criminals.
If bill introduced by Messrs. Con
zales and Llewellyn of Dona Ana
county and passed in the house this
afternoon is concurred in by the sem
ate and approved by the governor,
Mrs Smith Jones guests need have
no fear They will go unwhipped of
the law. How their hostess will fare,
will be a matter for judicial decision.
If q body of good fellows drop into
the back room at Mikes place, call for
cards and gin and while away an hour
or so flirting with the goddess of for
tune, all hands, including Mike, may
at present be called before the bar of
justice If the Gonzales-Llewellyn
bill is placed on the statute book, Mike
will be stung. but the good fellows
who enjoy the hospitality of his en-
porium may face the world like gen.
tlemen unafraid.
That is the difference between Mike
and Mrs. Smith-Jones.
Dncrting Discussion.
The relative status of Mike and Mrs,
Smith~Jones was the subject of a high
ly diverting discussion in the hous this
afternoon, and the strange part of it
was that prominent members of what
Representative Bryan is accustomed to
call that august body" both of them
lawyers held diametrically opposite
views regarding the effect of the bill
under consideration. Mr.. Pardue of
Guadalupe voted for the bill because
in his opinion it caught Mrs. Smith
Jones in the meshes of the law. Mr..
York of Otero voted against it because
of his convictions that it would relieve
her of all pains and penalties.
Both Mr.. Pardue and Mr.. York APP
piled an ungentle name to Mrs,
Smith Jones. They called her LADY
gambler" and they frowned upon her
and all her tribe. Neither had good
word for her.
Terms of the Bill.
The bill is short and to the point.
1t provides that "any person who, for
money or other thing of value con-
ducts or operates any game of chance,
by whatsoever name known or howso-
ever played, or who knowingly per-
N, h. nj n
any premises of which he is the own
er. lessee or occupant" shall be fined
not more than $500 or imprisoned
not more than six months, or both, 1t
Iepeals all conflicting laws.
An amendment offered by Mr.. York
TO make those who engage in the game
equally guilty with the one who con-
ducts it was voted down, the rea-
son given being that under present

ROME, Italy.-An investigation Of
the shoe industry has revealed that
the retail stores have been flooded
with footwear made OF vanished
cloth, paper soles. sold to women and
children at prices varying from IS
TO $40.
One dissatisfied customer lodged
q complaint OF fraud against the
seller of shoes" whereupon the
association of shoe dealers voted to
close up their shops and not sell
any more cloth and paper until the
public had digested their wrath.
The newspaper comment has been
to the effect that. since sole leather
is lacking for the making OF sandals
OF the old Roman type. the public
must either wear old shoes bought
before the war and made OF real
leather, or else return to the WOODEN
shoes Of the peasant until such times
as the shoe dealers lower their
prices for real leather.
