HUMAN TRAGEDIES.
Hamar tragedies of the direst kind have been caused by the illega: London day clubs which make fabulous profits from their rouge d muir or roulette tables.
There is a type of player at the clubs I have visited who deprecates wild gambling of any kind, writes A Daily Mail. Many are thi human tragedies such men have de- scribed to me, sometimes indicating victims of them, and I can add stories that have been sent to me by post.

AN EVIL GENIUS,
Bat, Sept. 4th. Frau Pocheriel, an evil genius if ever there was one, and her husband have been arrested at Rybník, in Epper Silesia, on a charge of
murder.
ม
The man has thade a frank con-.
fession of guilt to the police, and seemed relieved to be able at last to tell his tale of pamion, hate, and
death.
The woman, in whose terrible. hands the map was wax, denied her guilt obatinately, but under the ordeal of an examination she broke down and acknowledged that she was murderess.
Pocheziel is a workman, and br fore he met the fatal woman who
has ruined him he lived happily
with a wife whom he adored. She was a delicate girl and fell into a decline. Her husband was over- come with grief when they told him that she could not live.
She was helpless and had to take to her bed. A neighbour, Frau Brachmann, came in and out, to help. Slowly the invalid realised that this woman of 30 did, not come out of pity for her, and saw that the woman had marked down Pochertel her prey Frau Brach-

One man who had built up a prosperous manufacturing business and is now penniless, having lost about £12,000 as two clubs, told me the following story:
He was a member of one of the clubs have described, and one day was asked to join a party which was going over to a second elub which figures in the stories I have related. Here he lost such a hig sum of money over the tables that he became a member with the sole intention of getting it back.
Little saccesses encouraged him to believe that it was possible to right himself, that one could win a the game it one had luck. But with the little successes came bigger failure. He pursued his lossy until the last penny had gone.
