The Temperance Movement.

CLEVELAND, o., March 2l.-flon. Charles
\. Obs, Mayor OF this city, issued proclama-
ton last evening which calls upon all citizens
to abstain from all such aSsemblagcs IN the
streets Of the city as may tend to disturb the
peace of the community, as such assemblies are
in direct violation of the provisions Of an ordi-
nance of Che city, The Mayor warns all per-
sons disorderly disposed that any breach Of the
peace will be followed by the punishment of
the offenders, and that it will be at their own
peril if they attempt TO modest citizens 10 the
orderly exercise Of lawful rights, whether 10
the streets or elsewhere. The police authori-
ties are ordered to see that the purpose of the
proclamation is accomplished, and any auxil-
aries required will be promptly given them.
1t is impossible to say what course the ladies
will now pursue, as the proclamation applies to
theu as much as to the crowds who followed
them 10 their rounds.
FoRT ScoTT, KANSAS, March 2l.-The first
earnest work of the temperance crusade was
inaugurated here last night by visit of about
a dozen ladies' to the saloon OF Deacon Maynard
where a free lunch was advcrlized from ~ to II

one ragged and hungry little ones, children of
drunken parents to give them the hcncht OF
the lunch The proprietor Of the saloon receiv-

teousy aud lunch was spread before the latter,
10 which they did ample justice. A large crowd
of spectators who filed tie saloon were general
y respectful in their demcanor, although there
were some boistcrous demonstrations and bias
phemous conversation, and constant demand
on the bar for drinks. After the children had
satisfied themselves, the ladies knelt and q
long, fcrvent and earnest prayer was offered by
the ladies of the band. After the prayer the
ladies sent the children out the side door of the
saloon and themselves filed through the crowd
out the trout entrance. Deacon did the houors
of the occasion graciously, and invited the la
dies to call again and bring the children with
them when they got hungry. The ladies were
all of the highest respecta blllty.
