Bought a Ticket From Chinaman, But Hit Only Two High PiacesHov and Where the : Lotteries Are Played . While Chief Hunt and his trusty of ficers sre trying to stop lottery deal ing among the Chinese, the latter class are said to be secretly operating ' this seductive game which has such charm for the Celestials and also for more than a few whites. During the past week Sergeant Car penter and Officer Reslng have raided two alleged lottery dens. Judge Hogue in the police court decided that In the case of Quln Wah the evidence was in sufficient to prove the existence of this form of gambling, but Lat Wah was not so fortunate and it cost htm 150. In Spite of Mayor Williams' impera tive orders, Chief Hunt's stern - com mands to his men, and the cunning of the detectives, the almond-eyed Celes tials are still running lotteries, it Ah claimed. The lottery- companies are composed of wealthy. Chinese merchants, who find that Investment in an enter prise of this sort brings lucrative re turns. The tickets are sold at various Chinese stores and gambling establish ments, but only the -initiated can pur chase them, since the recent crusade of the police against this form of vice, - The tickets are peculiar. ' They con It of a piece of paper about six -Inches square, in . the center of which are printed 80 Chinese characters. . These are in green Ink, with a border of the same color. At the top in the blank are several English words, such ' as ''Member Ass'n No. : t," and "Admit two." Outside of the border' at the side the agent . prints the date, according to Chinese reckoning, while with a rub ber stamp he prkus in English the cor responding date In the American chron ology. The SO Chinese words are a fac-simlle of a page in the Chinese primmer, each representing some ordinary word, such as ocean, cat dog, or other object, which the pupil- learns when he first begins to acquire knowledge in the native schools. The purpose of these words is the same as a corresponding number of numer als. When the lottery drawing takes place each of the 80 characters is placed in a box, only one word pn each piece of pa per, and the whole is well shaken. Then 20 are drawn. A sample page of tho ticket la marked off, showing what words have been successful that day. A person purchasing a ticket for 23 cents can mark off with a Chinese brush, such as are used for writing, 10 words. Should he pick out five which are drawn A deed conveying the southeast quar ter block lying at the corner1 of Thir teenth and Northrup Streets to them, was filed by Ellers Piano House today. Mr. H. J. Ellers, presidenc of the cor poration, is now out of the city, but Mr. A. H. Filers, ' the secretary and treasurer, who was seen, stated tftat the property had been acquired for the Use of the firm and that steps would Immediately be taken to erect buildings upon it suitable to the requirements of the rapidly expanding business of the concern." ' " The large three-story brick warehouse St the corner of Thirteenth and Mar shall streets now occupied by the firm Is altogether inadequate for he pres ent needs of the business. The new building will be three times the slse of the present warehouse and Will be equipped with all the modern appliances for handling and shipping pianos and organs. Large and commodious stables of the most up-to-date equipment will also be erected here for the accommoda tion' of its drays and teams. The most important feature of the proposed improvements is the erection of a piano factory by this enterprising firm. The nucleus for this industry was established by It some time ago In the present warehouse, where experimental piano building has been carried on with such success that a factory has been decided upon. A large three-story frame structure now occupies a part of the ground just purchased. This is to be moved over to the Northrup street side of the lot and in it the "Ellers Brothers" piano will be manufactured. Trmekafe TaeUttlea. Sidetracks immediately west of the property will facilitate the unloading and shipping of carload lots of pianos and organs, same as at the old stand, and the close proximity of the buildings to the various freight depots will enable Ellers Piano House to handle an even larger volume'' of their wholesale trade from their new quarters than heretofore. The new structure will give this con cern not only the most up-to-date eco nomical handling facilities, but also make Ellers Piano House more than three times the largest piano and organ concern on the Pacific coast and at the same time it Will make Portland the greatest and leading jobbing and dis tributing center of the great West' NEW HOME OF THE .

If all of the ten are found among the successful characters he Increases his investment by a fabulous per cent, and there are other rules whereby he may get largo returns. But if. out of the ten words which he has picked, less than five are successful, the money is lost and the association, or lottery company, gets it all. Whether the player wins or loses, the agent gets 10 per cent as his com mission.. Among the places which have been selling tickets Is the tailor shop of Wey Sun & Co., 226 First street. A. reporter for' The Journal entered the place a few days ago and presented a business card Of the firm printed In English. ;; On the back was stamped the picture of a Chi nese idol, which went to show that the player -was "ell right" When the "boss" appeared he did not. hesitate to sell a ticket First he beckoned the player Into a rear room of the workshop where the lottery paraphernalia, consisting of stencil stamps, tickets and brushes, were concealed by a cloth, "What company you want to play?" "Any old company." Thereupon the agent drew . forth a ticket of Association No. 2, which is said to belong to the - Wing Lee Doo com pany, of which Lee Git a local China man, is alleged to be the head. With a Chinese brush the player marked off ten characters, selecting them at ran dom. "When do you have the drawing?" was asked. ' "Nine o'clock every night," replied the wily ' Chinaman. The next day the player learned that he had hit but two of the words and therefore there were no returns from the investment. Upon the' second visit the Chinese tailor appeared to be suspi cious. "Who told you rome here?" he in quired, but as he was not Informed he volunteered this Information: "We no sell lottery every dsy; only when agent come." Company No. J Is said to be that of Fook Luck Shue, but whether any un usual good, fortune attends those play ing this game, or whether the luck stays with the Fook Luck Shue Is not known. Be that as it may, the Chinese want to run lotteries, and are willing to pay the city for the privilege, but Mayor Williams has issued a determined fiat that this form of gambling must be sup pressed. HANNA WRITES ON LABOR PROBLEM PEAKS TXZ TBSBTD OP SOCIALISM IS TOWAX2 BYtt SATS THAT SSVOATXO AJTD TAXB SZALXXQ whjtj bsttlb DcrrsBEzrcxs be- TWEXW CAPTTAX, ABB LABOB. , (Journal Special Service.) Boston, Jan. 28. In the February number of the National Magaslne will appear an article on "Socialism and the Labor Unions" from the pen of Senator Hanna. He takes the stand that educa tion will eventually do away with the controversies between capital and la bor. He looks upon the trend of Social ism as an evil. Also that labor should be rewarded and that the great law of fairness and justice will be the basis upon which the future relationship will rest. He is in favor of uniting the in terests of the rich and the poor and the learned and the unlearned. Ills ar ticle, in part Is as follows: The abor Organisation. "Until within a comparatively few years big capitalists, or the employing Interests, have had the advantsge be cause there were more workmen than there was work. But conditions have changed, and for every workman, on an average, there are two Jobs now, in the heyday of our prosperity, and It Is ex pecting too much of human nature to suppose that worklngmen shall not de sire a larger share of the profits. Has not this motive been the stimulating In centive of the men who are making bus. lness affairs? No one who is acquainted with union labor for ths past five years can fall to recognise the wonderful ad vancement that has been made by con servative, cool-headed and thoroughly practical management of these matters by the worklngmen themselves. "Probably the greatest task of the society will be the creation of economic alliances between nations with common Interests. The society adopted as a cardinal principle the necessity for di recting the attention of the peoples and government of Central Europe to their common economto interests. The meet ing was attended by 160 leading econo-i mists, politicians, manufacturers, mer chants anu landowners. It Is Intended to include in the scop of the operations of the society the powers forming the triple alliance France, Switserlsnd, the Netherlands and Scandinavia. . "Labor organisations may be open to sharp criticism at times, but it cannot be fairly stated tha.1 they are always wrong. If every man is treated ' as a man and an appeal made to his heart as well as to his reason, it wi.l establish a bond of confidence as a sure founda tion to build upon. While labor unions may have been a curse to England, I believe they will prove a boon to our own country when a proper basis of confidence and respect Is established. Boee Bot Pavor Socialism. "The menace of today, as I view it. is the spread of a spirit of Socialism, one of those things which is only half un derstood and Is more or less used to in flame the popular mind against all In dividual Initiative and personal energy, which have been the very essence of American progress. "There is a spirit of co-operation, or community of -Interests, which some peo ple may confound with Socialism, that Is making headway with us; but when any one attempts, for political or finan cial reasons,, to advocate the whole pro gram of European Socialism, he wilt find little prospect of the seeds taking root In American soli. This, I think, was demonstrated very conclusively in the Ohio campaign, where higher Social ism was brought forth as an issue. "Fairness and prejudice will, never agree to the confiscation of the products of one mans toil In order to insure comfort to the Idle and worthless. No 'Ism' ta wanted by the American peo ple that will take from any citizen the just and equitable reward of his labor. Both capital and labor must yield In time to the great law of fair dealing, man to man.
