HOW THEY GOT EVEN.
There were some gentlemen. not iuseparab1y
connected with the saloon interests who dis.
covered means for exhibiting their disgust at
the city ordinance which prevented their fllinp
tEer Golfers, and combining amusement to them
sei!o5, and qualification to thirsty Northaidere
with the manifestations. About 10 o'clock yes
terday morning, procession Of beer-venders,
and others interested IN the manufacture or dis
position Of the fluid which is said to cheer with
n out 1nebriating, formed upon the North Side.
They were about 500 strong, and marched in an
orderly manner behind an express wagon, which
contained two beer Kegs. When they halted, all
who thlrsted drank beer gratuitously presented
to them. The ordinance forbade the sale
Of beer in any tippling-house on
sunday; another la~ prevented it's sale without
license. There waa no way of getting even with
the city. while obeying its commands, without
the gratuitous distribution of drinks. There
were possibly some who gained by it, but the do
nors cannot be expected to have made money by
their mockery Of Municipal law.
MOST ASTONISHING CIRCUMSTANCE
was pointed out to the Superintendent of Police.
who made q tour throughout the entire city, and
visited every Police Station, and that WAS tile
absence Of q name on the book OF arrests since
Friday night. Saturday and Sunday, up to 8
O'Clock, could not show 3 single name. This,
however, could not be attributed to the Sunday
ordinance, as the Whiskey cases are generally
booked after dark on Sunday evening. At the
Webster avenue Station there we're two cases OF
drunkenness, and two Cboth tailors) Of fast
disordorly at the North Branch Station, attribu-
table to the same cause. Under the orders given
by Superintendent Washburn not to release
prisoners On deposit, these worthless have hard
time Of it, spending nearly "a hours in the cells
without q possibility Of escape.
It is supposed that the almost complete prev
a1ance Of obedience is too good to last, and that
by next Sunday Why's and means will have been
found to evade the law and escape the notice OF
the police. If the officers display as much yigi-
lance then as they did yesterday, the North
Slders had better not trust to any such possi-
bility, but lay in q stock of beer On Saturday
night on the cooperative plan.
= . In making his visits on the North Side, Su-
perintendent Washburn called upon the officers
to enforce the law without showing the least
partaity. They were all sworn to do so, and
must not make any distinction in favor Of any
body.
80 BEYOND THE CITY L1a1rrs.
-. The day being warm and genial for driving,
many young bloods, as usual, found their way
out to the drinking places beyond the North
Side city limits. The dusty road and warm sun-
shine produced thirst, which WAS probably in
creased BY the consciousness that no liquor WAS
to be obtained near home: The North Side po-
and generally the North Division is unfortunate
enough to hare dozen drunkards boarded
within its confines who really belong to other
divisions. But aB long as Sunnyside and
Downing 8 are within reach, this appears to be
Such was, to great extent, the result yester-
day. At the terminus Of the North Side Rail-
way track are four or five beer saloons and WhiB-
key shops and. driven thither in search Of t1uids
thousands of citizens, hard and not 40 hard,
docked to enjoy what could not be obtained in
town. Beer and alcohol we're poured down with
out intermission. At Sunnyside gentle col1ee-
ton of: all SORTS and conditions of humanity en-
