V "It's so anyhow," he persisted; "hut h if you slit his tongue straight down the s< middle, lengthwise, he can talk a good H deal better. Why, I've seen that thing i' tested.

Scvral important subjects were up for isciission. I'racth ally the entire uucil was present. The first matr discussed was that of the telehone situation. For some time lete lias been dissatisfaction on the art of a numlier of people in regard the manaaeinent of the telephone stem in Caffney ami the council ropnsetl to li.uk Into the matter, r. It. 15. ItahiiiKton of Castonia. X. .. general manager of the Piedmont I'lephoiie coinpaiiy. was called op hy ie mayor to state the company's position. Mr. Rabington said: am extremely sorry that the peo|i of your eity have had any occasion register a kick against the inetho and service of the company. I dee ly regret that such is the case. Sin our company has been in CiafTney v have been accorded the most cou teous of treatment, not only by tl council and subscribers but the pe pie as well. For this we are mo than grateful and it is fully appr elated. I will discuss first the phra in the franchise 'unlimited servic around which the entire trouble r garding non-subscribers using tl 'phones seems to hang. This expre sion in the contract between the ci [and my company means that the se vice shall be unlimited to a subscri er; that he shall have as many cal as he desires each month without e: tra pay. It does not apply to no: subscribers, however, and we did 11 intend it in that way when it w: inserted in tho franchise. You w find that some towns, Charlotte f< lioUanne has a svstem by which man may have 200 calls a month at low rate. All above 200 he pays f( at the rate of three cents per ea They, therefore, have a limited se vice and an unlimited one also. Tl council will grasp my explanation the 'unlimited' part. The purpose eliminating the dead-heads was I give better service to the subscriber Our company has in this city 3< subscribers. Yet we are continual called upon to serve from 2,000 3.000 people at all times. It is In | possible for the subscribers to e: pect a prompt and immediato servii and good service if the operators a forced to answer two dead-heads every one subscriber. We have be< to the several thousand dead-hea< that are using our lines and solicitt them asking that they have a tef phone installed. To this they ha^ paid no attention. They have bet solicited again and given one mo: month of use of the lines and then case they do not have a telephoi installed we feel that we have a pe feet light to demand a nomln charge for each call that such noi subscriber desires." Mr. Babingtf was asked by the mayor as to wheth or not a guest at the hotel was allov ed to use the 'phone in the hotel fri of charge. Mr. Babington replied this that a booth had been placed the hotel for this express purpoi and that $30 per year was paid 1 the telephone company to the pr prietor for the purpose of this boot lie stated that he saw no reason wl the drummers should have any mo: privileges than any other non-sul scriners ana rnai in nis opinion un should be made to pay. Mr. Babini ton concluded by stating It was i utter impossibility to care for 5,0( calls with a capacity of 1,600. M B. D. Houser. local manager of tl company stated that in some par of the city there were as many i four people paying for the san phone and that ono man in town wi getting a phone for $1.50 and h? actually collected $1.75 for the u of the 'phone from his sub-renter Mr. Houser pointed out that this pe son had secured the use of the 'phoi gratis and was also 25 cents aher of the game. The matter of whethi or not the subscribers in this ci could 'phone to Rlacksburg withoi charse was discussed and it was d elded that any subscriber could 'phoi from any business 'phone in this el to any part of Blacksburg withoi cost but that no residence 'phone cou be used without a payment of t( cents. The council finally decide that if any neighbor desired to u: the phone of a subscriber that sa subscriber, if he was so incline could do the talking and transact tl business for said neighbor and th without charge but that the afor mentioned neighbor was liable to charge of five cents in case he or si attempted to use the 'phono then selves. This was the opinion of tl council, although no definite aclk was taken by them and the matt will be discussed again at the ne: i rguiai iniTims. STARTED NEW MONTE CARLOS Some Attempts to Rival the Now Ft mous Gambling Resort. The gigantic profits, 10,000,000 15,000,000 francs yearly, which a made by the proprietors of the garni ling rooms at Monte Carlo, have caus< speculators of all nationalities to sii large sums in starting rival estal lishments. The chief obstacle to these scheni is that nearly every civilized count! possesses laws which veto gambling ( such a wholesale scale, and so it next to impossible to find a situath for a casino. About seven years ago the men wi formerly conducted the casinos i Hamburg, Spa, and Namuh, all i which had been lately closed, open< a gambling club at Moresnet, a prett sleepy little town on the borders i Belgium and Germany. Former Moresnet was controlled jointly I Belgium and Prussia but Belgiu bought it outright, and the gamblii club was opened in August, 1003, undi the name of "Cerele Prive dcs Etrai gers de Calamine." In a week it had 600 members, at hundreds more were awaiting balk Rooms in the town which cou previously have been hired for foi shillings a week rose to four pounds. Roulete and baccarat were in fu swing, and the golden dreams of tl proprietors were in a fair way to bi come realities when the Belg'an go\ erment, which had so far showed i disposition to put down gamhlin suddenly woke up, and a new ant gambling law crushed Moresnet, ai at the same time put a stop to publ gambling at Ostend. The latter tow suffered so severely that her Burg< master and aldermen threatened to r< sign rather than face the task of trj ing to manage without the incomi realized from the casino. About the same date that Belgiu prohibited public gambling two sepa: ate attempts were made to found ne Monte Carlos in the Ionian Islands. A syndicate formed with the gigai tic capital of C 1,600,000 offered tl island <>f Corfu a yearly sum of C14 000,000 in return for a gambling cm cession. Not only that, but tin agreed to spend $160,000 in buih ings, and to run a daily steamer se vice. Corfu jumped at the proposal, at all was in order when the (5reek go eminent interfered, and the hopes the speeulators were once more erusl ed. In 1901 a Belgium syndicate made ? even more amazing offer to the islat til' Samoa. In return lor a gamhlit concession a large sum was to lie pa down and to he followed hy a year payment beginning at US.nan and ri ling to IMS.(Mill. The promoters wet to build carriage roads and ruilroai all over the island, to complete tl <|itays, to found hanks, schools, a thei tor. and a circus, and make a fit park. Also to maintain a good lmsp till. They were also to maintain first-class steamship service wit Constantinople and Athens. The insular assembly passed thei proposals hy 22 votes to is, but it wj found that the majority of the islam its \\ in1 avcrsi" 111 mining wieir i: land into a vast gambling pit, and the vnd the Porte stopped in and r fused its consent. The latest little Monte Carlo is to 1 founded on two tiny islands in beaut l'ul Maggiore, a lake which lies part in Italy and partly in Switzerlan These islands, of which the largest less than a quarter of a mile long, wi according to present plans, be turn* into a large casino with a theater at a first-class hotel, the cost of tl buildings to be C160.000. It remains be seen what the Italian and Swii governments will have to say aboi the matter. According to a Portuguese paper, scheme is afoot to establish a great cs sino in tlie island of Madeira. A syi dicate lias been formed with a capit. of half a million, and the Portuguc government lias been offered 2f> p< cent of the profits. As Portugal is chronically hard u it is quite possible that Madeira ma have its Monte Carlo. If the schen does materialize, it is safe to say tin it will pay enormously, for the islan is already a very popular winter rnsur ? Pearson's Weekly.
