Lincoln Prepares
to Care for Waits
of Canine Family

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 8--The canine
waif without friend or home is to
have a double chance for life and
luxury in Lincoln. Before death
reaches the parentless dog in this
community the city and the Lancas-
ter County Humane Society will have
exhausted every means of providing
life and limb.
The sick and crippled will have a
regularly employed veterinarian at
their call, Dr.. G. j. Norden by name,
who will devote his time to saving
lives.
A tract of land has been set aside
as the home for orphan dogs, pro-
vided with kennels and runways SIM
liar to the breeding Kennels Of ped
igree stock. These temporary homes
are sanitary.
The people of the city are COM
PEELED through ordinance to notify
the society of the presence of a stray
dog. A city ambulance answers
summons day or night.
Citizens of Lincoln, also, are pro-
hibited from destroying dogs in any
manner. Any person who poisons
or in any other manner does away
whit dog is subject to heavy fine.
Dogs falling into the care of the
humane society have a ninety-nine
percent chance of finding a home.
But very few dogs have been de-
stroyed. A regular booking agency
is established by the society, an ag-
ency that lists persons wanting all
classifications of dogs.

BERLIN IS TRYING
To HALT, GAMBLING
FEVER IN CAPITAL
(By Associated presSl

Berlin, Oct. 8-The government is
trying to halt a gambling fever
which has been sweeping Germany
for many months and which author
tiles say continues to spread at Il
surprising rate despite hundreds of
arrests, the confiscation of millions
of marks, sentencing of scores of
persons to Jail and the imposition of
heavy fines.
Close upon the heels of the gamb-
ling and speculation mania which ap-
peared among the people of all class
es, came a horde of stock market
manipulators, race track touts, buck
ct shop proprietors and organizers
of get-rich-quick betting associa-
tions, who, starting with small sums
subscribed by working men and wo-
men, shortly were able to open lux
urious gambling houses.
At least a dozen such establish
ments operating in Berlin, Hamburg,
Dresden and smaller provincial
towns have been raided and closed
by the police.
Sums as high as 100000 marks
have been found and confiscated by
the police in gambling houses which
apparently were catering only to the
smaller gamblers. The proprietors
have been held on charges of fraud.
The horse-racing season, which
has been unusually successful, offer
ed the crooked gamblers and promo
tiers chance which they promptly
took advantage of and it is known
billions of marks were waged on al
legged tips. Some of these promoters
became widely known as reliable
"informants" and made so much
money for their clientele that they
became popular idols.
Following the breaking-up of a
number of the more prosperous bet
ting clubs, the board of governors of
the Grunewald race track, near Ber-
lin, which receives the patronage of
hundreds of thousands of persons
during the week, barred three of the
best known jockeys for life and sus-
pended others for alleged crooked
riding, betting on other horses in ra'
ces in which they rode and Similar
offenses.
In a final effort to curb the gam
bling evil the authorities have an.
nounced they will hold as accomplic'
es the owners or proprietors of hous-
es in which the gamblers are permit
ted to operate.
