P6ra long time the respectable people living
between Missouri and PennBy lvania avenues,
on Four aud ahalf street, have been annoy ed
by the presence Of one Of the lowest gambling
and swndng hells In the city, kept In q negro
house near the entrance Of an alley. Sergeant
Cronin has had his eya on the den for some
time, and put officers to watch the place. II
seems that the proprietor sold policy tickets In
bogus establishment having no existence, and
most OF his customers were negroes, thus rem
doriDg 1t exceedingly difficult to procure proper
evidence on which 10 make nm arrest. As many
rs one hundred and nfiy customers per day
have been seen to pass into the establishment,
and from thence into one OF the vile rum shops
in the immediate luc,i,y. Last Wednesday,
the sergeant dispatched Il squad OF his officers
under the lead of R,uudsman Turner, who
pounced on he rancho and seized the propfie
tor, his books, papers, and some Of his GUS
toners, and took them up before Justice Wal
tor, where, after due examination, Groves was
fined MY dollars and ninety.tour cents, and
George Jarboe, an assistant, and three or four
customers, were dismissed. It Is hoped that
this will he instrumental In breaking up this
den, It not many good citizens will regret that

possession, the proprietor would have felt the
