Dice Craze SeizeS
Chicago Women, Who
Play With Courage
Diamond Set Cubes and Less
. Fashionable 'DOntinOeS'
Interest Craps DeUOteeS.

CHICAGO. Jan. Sweet nursery
lullabies. grooming infants to sleep, have
been replaced by swapping fingers and
excited, fearful entreaties such as "Oh,
baby Be there" according to depart
ment store clerks here. Women, they
say, have taken up Craps" and are
rolling the "domlnoes" with such dex-
terity that the men are going broke.
The dic-playing craze, clerks said, has
extended to al classes of women. In
the boudoirs of society danes and In the
less elegant parlors of wives of work
ing men, dice are being thrown.
Women have besieged department and
jewelry stores for dice ranging in price
from 60 cents to hundreds of dollars.
One store reported that a society wom-
an brought in 4 pair of silver dice and
had the jeweIer spot the cubes with dia-
mOnds.
So strong is the dice fad among wom-
en- that a special dice, about one-eighth
OF an inch square, has been manueac-
tured. It is made of silver and comes in
a case about the size of a small car
fridge. They are less fashionable, how
ever. than dice made Of ivory and mother
of pearl. which sell for higher prices.
The dice craze according to dealers,
originated with the men who learned to
play while in the army.
1T didn't take long for 1t to spread
to the women" one dealer said. 1T was
something naughty and didn't take a lot
Of intelligence"
The women. however, this dealer said,
have it on the men. They play more
recklessIy and with greater courage and
will pyramid their bets several times.

The Truth About Indianapolis
WATER

TATATER to the depth of ten feet on
w sizty-aore field would equal the
daily capacity of the four pumping
stations supplying Indianapolis with water.
The daily consumption of water aggregates
more than 100 gallons for each person in the
city. In furnishing water for domestic and
commercial uses and for fire service to the
1914 fire hydrants, the largest centrifugal
pump in the state combines with other high
pressure pumps in keeping pure water at the
bubble fountain, the kitchen faucet and the
supply lines of the city's industries.
The pure drinking water of Indianapolis en-
ables this city to stand above the average of
principal cities in the United States in the
health of its citizens. Each day forty
pies of water, taken from as many different
places in the $50 miles of mains, are analysed
to insure constant purity. Water from White
River passes through a sedmentation basin
and slow sand filters before it reaches the con-
sumers. Fifty-three deep wells furnish
added supply of pure water

NOT TRAIN As TEAM

mis- Trophy, as All Are in
Fine Condition.

period of the American Davis lawn

in the singles matches. will go to
Providence on Monday to play there
in exhibition singles and doubles
matches, and then proceed to the scene
of the Davis cup play for joint train
ing.
Tilden remarked that he had not Civ
en- much thought TO the question of
training for the forthcoming challenge
matches. He said he tried to keep in
condition constantly, that each day
with him was day TO keep fit. that
he was necessarily in the best of con
dition during the present title play
and that when the time came TO take
up training he would take whatever
steps were necessary.
