The native of India, wafers his money noetmlinj? to the colors woru tj the j.lfvs and takes no lirol of the merits of tl horses, or he will liiuk ii horse ridden by his favorite 5k key, no matter whether tlw animal Is n rank outsider or not. ' I lis ideas of psuubliiiB, in tact, are distinctly novel. Some of the more vetililiy Indians form rings and back every horse in the race, thus gaining the satisfaction f getting a winner vvery time. It Is really only of into years that the native .of India lias be come a habitual gambler on the turf, nixl nowadays the bulk of tite betting of the various raring centers In India is done by natives. Indeed, the au thorities are somewhat concerned about the growth of the betting tvliieu takes place among Indian natives, it being asserted that as many ns thirty lacs of rupees (about 300.000) is lost n4 won in the course of a season. The ignorant masses hare not -- front deal of actual money to wajw. lint so badly bitten are many of fhem with the craze for betting at race meet ings that they frequently wager What little property they possess on a horse, and if they lose they simply replace their loss by , stealing a neighbor's poods. The consequence is that wiien the racing season comes around the pel ice are kept very busy dealing with cases of petty larceny and other crimes involving loss of property. London Tit-Dits. NOT ANNOYED. The Directors Were Rather Pleased at the Barrister's Refusal. Mr. Reader Harris, K. C. was once offered a brief marked 50 guineas on behalf of a railway company th:it wished to obtain a refreshment license for a particular railway station. lie returned the brief on conscientious jrrounds, but later on it was sent back to him with a fee of 100 guineas marked on it. This time he returned It with a note in which he explained that his refusal was due to a matter of principle. Subsequently he met one of the directors of the company and expressed a hope that he and his col leagues were not annoyed at his con duct. "Not at all," said the director. "I'll tell you all about, it. So-and-so, the big brewer, was sitting outbe board tor the first time at tbe meeting at which the solicitor reported that your brief marked 50 guineas had been re turned. 'Who's this psalm singing humbug? he asked. 'Mark the brief 100 guineas and I'll bet you anything you like he'll take if 'Oh. you will, .will you?' asked the chairman. You eee. we all knew you, Harris. We took the brewer on at 5 to 1 in five pound notes. He booked the bets with every one of us, and he has paid up." London Scraps. I A Curious Receipt. Hanover's registrar discovered o ery curious document some time age as he was looking through a bundle of papers that date back to the eight eenth century. The document is a re ceiptprobably the only oue of ita kind lu existence which was given to a Hanoverian captain by a canon of Duisburg during the Seven Years' war. "I, the undersigned," it reads, "here by acknowledge that I have received fifty blows of a stick, which were in flicted upon me by a lieutenant of Cap tain B.'s regiment as a punishment for the stupid and frivolous calumnies which I have uttered In regard to the regiment of chasseurs. For my im prudent words I now admit that I am profoundly sorry. I received my pun ishment lying on a heap of straw and held by two men, and I bear testimony to the fact that the officer struck me as vigorously as he could with a stick that was as thick as my finger. . "In proper form and with due grati tude I sign this receipt arid avow that all therein is true." . - . Hard to Kill. . A crocodile's tenacity of life Is most remarkable. "I remember one time," ays a traveler in India, "I was with I a shooting party on the Ganges wnen the natives brought In a six foot croco dile. They hoped some one would want to tiny it. but no one did, so It was de termined to kill the creature. It was hauled out of the tank and tied to a tree. Bullets from a small rifle or an ordinary gun seemed only to irritate the saurian, nor did he seem to care very much when a native thrust a spear down his throat. Finally they were obliged to dispatch him with nxes. Kveu then the tall thrashed about for no little time after." Not That Kirsd. "Once in a I5ible lesson," said a Fur.day school teacher, "I repeated tlx; txt. 'Arise and take the young child and his mother and flee into Egypt.' And then I showed the children a large picture that illustrated the text in Lnght colors. The children studied this ptetura ngerly. Then thoy all frowned; all looked rather disappointed. Finally t little girl said: "Teacher, where is the flea?"" Wh,er to Sing. "T will King something restful to you, dear," said a lady to her morose hus band. "Shall I sing Fnr, Far Away?" "I wish you would," was the bitter ep!y. "It would save the trouble of apologizing to the neighbors." Hew Those Girls Love On Another. Maud And the last thing that Henry 4id was to give roe a kiss. Mabel Indeed! I should think that Is about the !at thing be would do. Illustrated Gohl a Demon. Aberdeen, Wash., Feh. . Efforts of the city and county authorities workii R on the 4 mystery of the 40 murders. " as the Gohl case is spoken of here, today centered upon two points, the search for the body of John Hcffraan ami tbe effort to trace the movements of two men, one of whom ia said to be Goal's brother. These two'uien nre wanted by the authorities so that the case against Gohl may be made complete. It is believed that they can throw much Ueht unon the dark doings that have haDuened in tbe fogey nights alou the southern shore of the harbor. One of these men, it is feared, has Rone to Canada or Mexico. Inquiry today developed the fact that HoTman drewS400 which he bad on depisot at the Hayes & Hayes Bank on December -80. He said at that time that he was eoina to spend some of it for Christmas presents and would then leave town. Two days later he was seen with Gohl and William Hedberg, and the police believe that he was taken to the now famous hunting shack, robbed and murdered. Hedberg, they think", witnessed this crime and the theory is that Gohl Killed him to proteot himself. Special deputies are continuing their search of the shallow parts of the harbor, liopinz to find Hoffman's body. If it famishes evidence of robberv or if it is bare of clothing the officers believe they will have a case that will stand test in court. Of the two men being sought, the one believed to be Gohl's brother was known as "Bud" Johnson. The autohrities will not divulee the name of the other man. Johnson, it is said, was brought here by Gohl, arid was one of the party of from four to six that spent almost their entire time on the hunting scow or on boats owned by Gohl. These men are alleged by the police ti have been closely associated with Gohl. It is believed by the police that this gang was not prticuUrly active in the crimes of wbicb Gohl is suspected, however. The apparent magnitude of Gohl's operations is making the case difficult for the local authorities to handle. At first it was believed that Gohl had not committed more than three murders at the most, and the sensa tional reports that were brought to the police and county officers wore discounted and thought to be only phases of the popular. hysteria that followed Gohl's arrest. Investiga tion of many of these stories has led the authorities to change their minds. and now they believe Gohl has mur dered many. Summons.
