Another Version.

(The Big Sandy News has reliable
information about what happened
there, hence these lines.)
You've got the wrong dope, Jim Allen,
And it isn't fair to Luke.
They say he drinks booze by the gallon
And for this he deserves rebuke;
But the boys at MaysMlle are slicker
Than the guys Luke knows at home,
And while they are slower on liquor
They are there with the fine tooth
comb
When it comes to the bones and poker
For taking the coin from a.stranger--
Especially If he be a joker
Such as this Cincinnati granger
The Maysville boys rolled" Luke for
fair
They captured all his money.
Then somebody tipped the Sheriff off
And the joke no more was funny
So let's not kick him when he's down;
1t hurts our reputation.
Kentucky hospitality is at stake
Let's offer our consolation.
The Big Sandy news. [volume] (Louisa, Ky.) 1885-1929, 1919-06-06

Luke McLuke, the humorist -philoso-
pher of the Cincinnati Enquirer went
down to Maysville, KY. the other night
to lecture and was indicted by the
grand jury for gambling. Now may
we not expect something like this in
Luke's column
A sorry wag came into town
| speak of Luke McLuke-
Unto his fame to add renown,
But got sad rebuke.
For when he tried to show the boys
The way to roll the bones
The sheriff grabbed him by the neck
And bawled in strident tones:
You can't come into this here town,
With no such dirty tricks
And try to cop our hard earned coin,
Or sell no golden bricks.
We listened to your hoary jokes
Until our ears do ache
You can't come into this here town
and work no other fake.
So come and face the majesty
OF law; and you'll be lucky
II you get back with any dough
From down In Old Kentucky"
