The cili/pns' committee announces that the gambling houses in the Bluffs nro closed for good. ' This statement may seem plausible enough to an outsider , but it is hardly In accordance with the facts. Both Monday night and last night one of the houses at least was running In full blast , and the proprietor openly announces that ho will deal faro whenever there Is anybody to play. It Is true that it Is not running as openly as formerly , but it is doing a rushing business just the same , and It seems to have a genuine monopoly just , at present. There is considerable red tape business to bo gone through with before any ono is ad mitted , but a BBC reporter receiver ) a pointer last evening and secured admission to the tiger's lair. What an eye-opener it would have been for the members of the executive committee of the anti-gambling association if they could only have been there and noted how effectually the cambllng houses have been closed. Several changes have boon made along the entrance way , but the innermost recesses of tha sanctum sanctorum , whore thu iculghts of the green cloth reign supreme , looked very familiar ; in fact , very few changes are apparent there. The space nt the foot of the stairway haa been securely boxed in , nnd a massive Uoor oftloublo thickness blocks the entry way. U is secured by two immense locks , and a heavy bar of ii.xO reinforces them. When n would-bu player presents himself for admit- tancu ho is carefully surveyed , and if the sentinel thinks ho is all right an electric but ton is pushed nnd the doorkeeper , who Is on the iinkle , obeys the "Open Sesame" and the door swings inward. Once iusido , ho is again subjected to inspection , nnd if sentinel No. ! } is satisfied , another push of another olcctnu button calls for the opening of the ponderous door at the head of the stairway. The visitor is then on the Inside , and ; his yearning soul is gladdened by the wclconio Bight u round him , wtiilo the familiar click of the ivories greets Ills car. Ho fulls to discover , however , the man who' was wont to preside over the ceaseless whirl of the roulntto wheel , for the play is limited to faro nnd .poker , una oven tbo latter may not bo n permanent fixture. Faro bank is the big attraction , and it is there In nil its glory. The foldine hoard with Its old time ' 'layout" has Riven place to something moro movable. The "layout" Is pasted on tho.green cloth cover , nnd the reason Is obvious. Suppose the place is raided. It is evident that axes and sledge hammers must bo used to gain admittance , und as soon ns anything suspicious is seen in the room below another of those very useful little buttons has only to bo touched and the ularm Is communi cated to these in iho room auovo. Lioforo the raiders can batter down these two doors every card , chip and oven the aforesaid green cloth with its * suspicious decor ations is safely deposited in the hugo safe that is such n conspicu ous plcco of furniture on the upper floor. When the unwelcome guests arrive on the field the evidence Is not there. Nobody tries to got nwuy. Haven't they a perfect right to lounge there if they so doslroi Is not the righteous ( I ) indignntlon of the pro prietor whoso property is thus rudely ns- saultod perfectly natural ! Of course it is , and when ho threatens a milt for malicious mischief is it nil a big bluff < Perhaps so , but tnat can hotter bo told latar. These heavy double doors nru prominent features nt both front nnd roar , and the pro prietor says loudly that ho docs not propose to shut up shop , committee or no committee. tt they nro obstinate ho will try them n whirl anvway. Just for luok. The committee wants information on the subject if a gamb ling house is found running in the city ; and hero is the first chance for them to nculovo real glory. There la a beautiful opening for a search warrant procedure , and it only remains for them to fix the dny. The ques tion Is. will they take the blulT , or will they compel this enterprising gamblur to show his hand } ' If their promises nro faithfully carrio'd out they will investigate matters and go out in search of n gumo themselves. It must ho stated , however , that the other gamblers dp not approve of this style of doing business , nnd have urged the proprie tors to keep ( inlet for u while. They have boxed up their tables , and are waiting for u moro favorable opening. They are not very sanguine ovor'tho outlook , nnd will watch the progress of the inovo auovo detailed with deep Interest. ileiuitlful tiprlni ; Goods. The approach of the beautiful spring weather causes a renewal of the ever ab sorbing interest the ladies feel In the now spring styles of dress goods and fashions , nnd this Interest Is daily attracting largo crowds nt Klsemun's nuuuinolli establish ment. The exposition of new spring styles hero is larger and liner than can bo shown by any other west of Chicago and a visit to tbo establishment Is protltablo to tbo ladles whether they wish to buy or not. For the past two weeks the dally arrival of goods has occupied the tlmo of a largo forcu of clerks.In receiving and unpacking and every case is the best result of iho host manufac turers.

That Jeffer son county will glvo a good majority for irohibition next full has bceu and is yet a lossibllity , but n few visits from such bluff ers as the tcn-dollar-a-night Hoofstitler will certainly make It a possibility. Wo can say without four of erring that during his week's stay in Fulrbury .lake Honfstltler reduced tbo prohibition vote thirty or more. Friday night ho jumped ou to the newspaper men 'or no other reason than that they failed to come out in praise of him In double-headed nnd double-loaded articles and said they were u degraded outtlt and were not fit to mlnirlo with civilized people.
