liquor to. soldiers. He was fined SIS and
costs. The penalty for this offeDse Is be-
ing pretty vigorously enforced at this time.
Our police have learned from experience
that an ounce of prevention (takiug into
consideration the kind of whisky that's
sold these days,) is worth about three
pounds Of cure.
The seven have become convinced that
there is no particular charm attached to
the figure, and that in the hands of
drunken crowd, they are SO many Daniels
in the lions den, without any supernatural
power to control the wild beasts. They
recognize that it is easier to kill the cubs
than to manage the lions. Three fourths
of the disturbance caused by soldiers, and
in fact by anybody else, is directly due to
the whisky shops.
Selling liquor to soldiers is in direct vic.
Iation of the city ordinance and of the mil
tary regulations, and we hope the police
will wage areIeutless war on the offenders.

of about $50 feet When the anger was
Withdrawn, the oil rushed up tHelye or
fourteen feet above the surface of the'earth,
and it was believed that about twenty five
gallons were discharged per minute, form

charged itself The fountain or stream
