In connection with saloon life in the West I want to mention shortchanging. In many places in the West they run dance halls or concerthalls in connection with the saloon, and the customer at these sits down at atable and is served by a waiter. It is a regular part of the system for thesewaiters to bring a man less change than he is entitled to when he pays hisbill. They never try this on a crowd that comes in together. They tryit on one fellow alone, or perhaps two, particularly when they seem to behalf soused, so that they will not notice their change. If the victim showshimself in the least hostile, he is pounced upon by bouncer and waiters,beaten, kicked and thrown out. If he applies to a policeman, the latter will. g° o S ><
