The story is told of a writer who, through boldness in attacking the established order of things, had considerable vogue for a short time. In the midst of his notoriety he decided that he would contribute to a certain wellknown magazine, in whose pages he had not yet been represented. He waited on the editor, and found him immersed in some hurried writing. "Ah, Mr. Blank," said the author, with that immunity from modesty which distinguished him, "you want an article from me." "Indeed?" queried the editor, going on with his writing. "Indeed?" "One article to begin with," pursued the author. "And I am willing to do it for you in spite of much work." "Indeed?" said the editor, as before. "I should say," followed up the author, "that for such an article as I have in mind, startling and original, I will close with you for $1,000." The editor's pen drove on. "Close with me!" he murmured. "Close! Will you kindly close the door as you go out?" Too Much of a Task.

Day's Grist in South Chicago

GAMBLERS LET OFF WITH COSTS Five Men Arrested in Raid Get Light Fines Other Court Notes. The saloon of Otto Strand, 91 Eightyeighth street, was raided by four offi cers from the South Chicago police station last night as the result of a i compalint by Mrs. Edward Erickson, ! whose husband, a bartender out of work, is said to have spent his time playing poker in the place. The raid resulted in the arrest of Edward Erickson, John Larson, Fred Jacobson, John Pearson, Leonard Nelson and Frank Llnd, who were booked on charges of gambling. The men were released on bail shortly after being taken to the station, and this morning they were arraigned before Judge Glrten, who after hearing the testimony of Officer Gavigan, one of the men who conducted the raid, dismissed the charge against John Larson and fined the other defendants the costs. His honor severely lectured the men, all of whom were well dressed and apparently honest working men, and warned them that another appearance before him on a similar charge would result in the imposition of heavy fines. The case against Alex Wisniewski, late candidate for drainage trustee on the democratic ticket, charged with assaulting Joseph Zolkowskl on the Sunday following election day in "Big Mike" Ciecielskl's saloon, 8730 Commercial avenue, in a quarrel growing out of the election, was a nolle i.-ossed Wisniewoski paying the costs of the proceedings. Judge Girten continued the cases against Policemen Daniel P. Collins and Harry Burns, who were tried on the charge of assaulting Stefan Chorek, a South Deerlng saloonkeeper, some weeks ago, with a deadly weapon, to May 3. A decision on the case will be rendered on that date. ARRAIGNED ON LIBEL CHARGE.

The case was continued to per mit three other defendants, Joseph and Anton Buller and Martin Konda, to be surrendered by their attorney, J. Bar rett. All five men are connected with a Croatian socialist newspaper which is alleged to have libeled Father Kranjec and two other Croatian priests, Father Francis Susteric and Father Kloplice The warrants were sworn out by Frank Foster, attorney for Father Kranjec, who has been for several years past rector of St. George's church, Ninetyfifth street and Ewing avenue. The publication of the alleged libel is said to have created widespread indigna tlon among the Croatian residents of South Chicago who are attendants at St. George's church. BUSINESS MEN'S MEETING.
