Thousand of "Bucks" Won and Lost
Last Night in the Elks' Big
Fun Show.
There were hundred of "bnrka"
on and lost on gambling device lust
night In Slippery Gulch which la be-
Ing staged by the Bryan Elks on the
carnival grounds
located In the old
power plant Everyone anrmed to be
' .... . v u .
there: In tart. It seemed as though It
was some big society fnuctlon. as all
of the "too" were out and enjoyed the
big western pioneer vlllaxe "stunt"
with all of the abandon of old timer.
Never has gambling flourished In
Bryan as It did last nkht and the
women played the games of chance as
well a the men. One lady causht the
lr'1 n oerasion o wen ann
came ao excited that she bet 83000
"bucka" that she could seven or elev-
en. but to can the climax she "threw"
- tlon that everyone got their money's
worth. Everybody enjoyed them-
' themselves and it waa necessary to ac-
tually drive thera away from the store
and games late In the evening they
simply didn't want to go home.
The finance committee reported
that their gross receipts were way
above their expectation and If busi-
ness continue like It atarted. they
will have the pleasure of reporting
to the lodge that they had wined out
the Indebtedness that Is hanging over
their heads.
The sheriff and his deputies were
on their Job and made numerous ar-
rest during the evening. Two well
known ladles of the city were discov-
ered "Jockeying" the rare horse game
and were placed In the lock-up. where
"
ty Judge Maloney were pal'I.
The gaming was of most Interest to
the crowds hut Catnmltr June's dance
ball and One-Keyed M'ke's bar and
restaurant were well patronized.
ft'lnperr Oulch will be open all
week and no dotibt the crowds will In-
creae from night for. Just as Is ad-
vertised there Is fun. fun: nothing but
fun.
