Denver has a gaming house that is
owned and controlled by a woman.
She says that among her best custo-

It is said that red hair rules the
world, for example, take P. D. Ar-
mour, Napoleon, Jefferson, Paderwis-
ki, Bob Fitzsimmons, Shakespear, Sar-
ah Brenhardt, Mary, Queen of Scotts,
Hrtten of Troy, Joan of Arc, and
many others of note, but the surest
way to demonstrate the fact is to
marry a red-haired woman.
The editor of the Cage Record, be-
sides taking an adtive part in the de-
fence of one of the local sheets here,
gives himself some notoriety by stat-
ing that he was once given free ac-
cess to the old McKinley home at
(anton, Ohio, and making inud pies
with President McKinley’s wife when
she was a little girl. But it isn’t
likely that this will get him any land
office patronage.
An interesting story is told of Alex-
ander Monroe Dockery, the new gov-
ernor of Missouri, who was a promi-
nent member of Congress for many
years. He believes that a man should
Ire a comylete citizen. He should
serve on a jury when called, pay taxes
fully and faithfully and vote as regu-
larly and frequently as the law allows.
And Mr. Dockery is one politician
Peacefully Slumbering.
A fellow went to a graveyard in
Missouri, and the observations, promp-
ted him to write the following beau-
tiful (?) lines: ‘Take a walk through
a cemetery alone and you will pass
the last resting place of a man who
blew into the muzzle of a gun to see
if it was loaded. A little further
down the slope is a crank who tried
to show how close to a moving train
he could pass. In strolling about,
you see the monument of the hired
girl who tried to start the fire with
kerosene; and a grass-covered knoll
that covers the boy who put a cob
under the mule’s tail. That tall shaft
over the man who blew out the gas
casts a shadow across the grave of
the boy who tried to get on a moving
train. Side by side the ethereal crea-
ture who always had her corset laced
to the last hole and the intelligent
idiot who rode a bicycle 9 miles in 10
minutes sleep unmolested. At re-
pose is a doctor who took a dose of
his own medicine. There, with the
top of a shoe box driven over his
head, is the rich old man who mar-
ried a young wife. Away over there
reposes a boy who went fishing on
Sunday, and the woman who kept
ntrdhnine on the cupboard. The man
who stood in front of the moving ma-
chine to oil the sickle is quiet now and
rests beside the careless brakeman
who fed himself to the 70 ton engine,
and over in the potter’s field may be
seen the bleaching bones of a man
who tried to whip the editor. In here
also lies the man u ho took the paper
