The plans are to start this brilliant

those hours unmasked. But, after the
clock strikes nine any and all of ths
spectators are invited to slip and slide
over the smooth floor of the gymnas
ium. The men in charge of the enter
tainment announce that plenty of
skates ars available and that no one
will be forced to wait their turn.
The general public Is cordially in
vited to attend the festivities, and the
entire gallery is open to the people at
large, free of all admission.

Girl Caught
Shooting The
Craps Now
ATLANTA, Ga., Feb. 8. —Atlanta's
first girl crap-shooter, or more prop
erly speaking the first one to ever
get caught, was arraigned in police
fcourt yesterday and fined SIOO.
The fair devotee to dice was Miss
Jessie Kramas, of Ethel street. On
Sunday afternoon she and a number of
young men were diverting themselves
with the hones when the police sud
denly appeared on the scene and pinch
d the whole crowd.
Miss Kramas made a rather pathetic
figure, and attracted a great deal of
attention as being the only girl ever
convicted in Georgia court of gambl
ing with dice, but her sex didn’t save
her from drawing the same fine as the
rest of the gamesters.
