This just in:

The "necessary rooms" at the Legion Hovel have fallen into a large sinkhole. Apparently they were built over an old mine tunnel after the mouth was dynamited closed many years back. Prissy Magee, the fastidious brother of Stinky, happened to be in the facilities at the time. While he wasn't hurt, he was taken to the hospital strapped on top of an ambulance; he will be hosed off, treated by the local hazmat team as a biological nuisance, and kept overnight for fumigation.

Construction crews are already at work (they're kept on retainer) doing what they can to solve the problem. Several people who have investigated the tunnel report that in addition to what you'd expect there are "fairly large numbers" of revolvers, sawed-off shotguns, knives, straight razors, brass knuckles and other memorabilia in the tunnel. There are also indications that the at some time the tunnel was "salted" with what appears to be gold paint.

In the meantime, denizens of the Hovel are asked to use the facilities at Alice's Place across the street ("Only The Best In The West!" - adv.).
