Griffith's famous “Hearts of the World"? These speculators, by devious tricks, had secured certain tickets which they were selling at $3, $4 and even $5 each to the public anxious to see Mr, Griffith's Iatest achievement. Owing to the crowds, the speculators worked in comparative | safety, despite the efforts of the Police to enforce the city ordinance. When the matter was called to your attention, however, and when word came that the District Atlorney had ordered this nuisance to the public stopped, the result was instantaneous and amazing. 1 The moment the “gangs” got wind of the order from your office, they faded away into oblivion. | | di Sk i there 18 no good re be classed with Mr. other story. |tair to a pl laxatives which of great interest we offer you in R. & G.
