LOSES $4,000 IN POOL GAME
Stock Salesman at Omaha Loses $22 900
Without Batting An Eye
$4,000 Lost at Poker

Two stock statesmen at Omaha played
pool all night at one of the leading no.
tells in Omaha last Monday night, in
which one salesman lost $1,000 to the
other. And he did this without SO much
as batting an eye; didn't even say
gosh" The game attracted a large
crowd and heavy bets were made by
friends of the principals. Both players
were said to be very inexpert and their
nervousness didn't improve the play,
but it was exciting enough for all con.
cerned.
During the week at the, same hotel
the daily papers recite an incident
wherein one stock salesman lost $4,000
playing poker. Chips sold at $4,000
apiece, and in less than an hour $26,.
900 changed ownership. The loser is
said to have made more than 100000
selling stock last year, and the loss of
a measly little 10000 bones didn't af-
feet him in the least. This game was
witnessed by a party of twenty-six
friends of the principals. ~

America is sOpportunity

Kansas City Star: The case of a Con-
necticut girl was reported the other day.
She had just been made the president
of a million dollar concern whose en-
ployment she had entered fifteen years
before at the fat salary Of $12 week.
Incidentally, the same girl conducted
a farm of her own near the place of
her employment and from the two
sources was said to have accumulated
fortune of nearly a quarter million.
OF course she could not have done what
she did unless she had had more than
ordinary ability. But also she wouldn't
have proved that she had unusual abil-
ity if she hadn't worked hard and faith
fully and shown a disposition to use her
head. The boy or girl on a small sal
airy who doesn't try for all there is in
him may not be throwing away the
chance to become head of big bust
ness. At least he is throwing away the
chance that every person with wealth
and any sort of training has of making
a comfortable and satisfactory place for
himself in the world, 1t is still as true
as it was when Emerson said it, that
America is another name for; opport
tunty. Il II 81, E!tttttt e4'ir - I'll ri.

most. Mr.. and Mrs. Gress were pre-

Decision on Reply Expected by
Thursday.

New York, June 4.-There is rea-
son to believe, according to advices
from Paris, that the council of four
will reach a decision by Thursday as
to the reply that will be made to the
German counter proposals to the
terms of peace. Meetings are being
held in Paris today for the purpose
of drafting memoranda to be sub
mitted to the council of four.
Premier Clemenceau is understood
to oppose any important changes in
the clauses of the treaty to which the
Germans have entered their strong
est objections. There are indications,
however, of a strong undercurrent of
sentiment to meet the German offer
of a definite sum of 100,0O0,000,000
marks as indemnity instead of
the indeterminate sum that might be
demanded under the terms as pre-
sented. 1t also seems possible that
the clauses of the pact relating to
Silesia may be modified so that Ger
many would be able to receive sup
plies of grain, coal and other COM
modities in spite of the transfer to
Poland of sovereignty over that re-
gion.
That the Germans have not said
their last word in objecting to
phrases of the treaty is indicated by
a memorandum drafted by German
experts, who seek to refute allied
charges as to the guilt of Germany
for the war. This memorandum will,
it is said, be presented as reply to
the report made by the inter-allied
commission on responsibility for the
conflict.
The supreme economic council has
appointed a committee to study a
plan for the liquidationfof the worlds
food control and to devise plans to
meet the problems that will arise af-
ter the coming harvest.

THE WORLDS BEST FRIEND.

Abbeville has new name to add
to those who have made our town
famous. This time we take our place
among the musicians for J. R. Will
son, commonly known around town

published piece of music. The title
of the music is, "The Worlds Best
Friend" composed by J. R. Wilson,
published by the Keith's Music Pub
fishing House of Long Brnach, N.
J. The words convey the idea that
money is the worlds best friend and
Bubber makes immortal the name of
Lula Gray, a we'll known colored
woman around town.
In addition to being musician
Bubber runs a store, a public hack
and a beauty parlor where anti-kink
is the chief article of trade.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE
PASSES IN SENATE
Up to States Now For Ratification
Vote Was Sc to 25-Underwood'.
Amendment, Providing for
Ratification by Convention
Defeated.

Defeated.
Washington, June 4.-The house
woman suffrage resolution was a.
dopted by the senate late today and
the proposed constitutional amend
ment now goes to the states for rati-
fication.
Failure of Senators Shields and
Poindexter to obtain pairs on the
suffrage question threatened late to-
day to throw the vote over until to-
morrow. Shields and Pomerene, who
are opposed to suffrage, were forced
to be absent from the senate.
The senate vote was Sc for adop-
tion' and rs against, or two more
than two-thirds majority required.
Suffrage leaders predicted that
the ratification will come in time to
permit the nations women to vote in
the 1920 presidential election. They
have already sent out speakers, and
will send out more at once to begin
a campaign in every state for cleo
tion of legislators pledged to ratif-
cation of the amendment. g.
Most of the legislatures are not
in session and new ones will be elect
ed before the next session is held.
This, suffrage leaders declared, prac-
tically means a national referendum
on the suffrage issue. .- ~

The passage Of suffrage was greet
ed by wild demonstration such as
the senate has seldom seen. Women
who have sat through the long de-
bate cheered and applauded as Sen->
ator Cummins, who was in the chair,
announced the result. Much laugh
ter was caused when Senator Under
wood, a strong anti, voted yes in a
firm voice and then discovering his
mistake hurried to correct it. For
a moment the galleries and senate
believed that Underwood, seeing the
tide running strongly in favor of
suffrage had decided to join with tho
Senators Reed, Missouri, talked
several hours to give anti-suffragists
an opportunity to arrange the neces-
citv nair- for tho absent senators.
