from good authority, that there never was a
time when Rock Isl and was cursed with 80
many houses of ill-fame as now, and under
this ADMINISTRATION, very little snsma to be

bold have these brazen faced creatures
grown, and in such numbers do they CON

spectacle females are ashamed to be seen
there.
To-day, Policeman Mi tsch notified the in.
mates of five houses to leave town immedi.

mates Of all such houses are hereby notified
to leave town, and that all who do not leave
