A crLpBD GROCERY.

We take the following extract
from a minute description Of the
Tribune liquor shop published in the
New York Sun.
We wish our readers to rem ember
that this is a respectable" shop
kept for respectable downtown bus
mess men:
"The first thing to attract atten-
ton as the last step is reached, 10
the array of paintings. Seven works
of art, each in walnut and gilt
frame, cover all The available spaces
on the walls. Each painting is
about FIVE feet high and four feet
wide. One of them represents a
San Francisco bar.room. The bar
tender, in front Of dazzling mirrors,
is mixing a cocktail for customer,
who stands before the counter. A
lounger is reading a newspaper, his
feet on a chair-back in front of him.
Another shows Kaiser William Lean
ing over a barrel in a country ale>
house, drinking glass of wine that
the bar maid has just poured from
an earthen pitcher. A burgher is
joining the king in his draught. A
third represents the arched and vine
covered entrance to an old castle
A jolly friar is tipsily tilted back on
bench, his hat on the ground by
bis side A handsomely dressed
German woman talks with an officer
in the background, and a pretty
maiden enjoys the scene from an up
per window. The painting by the
side of the stairway is of a wine
cellar, in two rooms, the ale casks
and champagne baskets bearing the
name of Roster. Another is rep
resentation of Wine, Women, and
Song 1t is an arbor scene, with
three men and three women seated
in free and easy attitudes around a
table, drinking champagne and sing
ing. The women seem intent on
showing the color of their shoe tops
The sixth gives a stout, red faced
burgher leaning comfortably back il
his chair, basking in the smile of
voluptuous woman, who has one
arm around his neck and one leg
over the arm of bis chair. The bar
maid is filling the beer mug that he
has Just emptied. The last, anc
perhaps the best, is true picture o
a Brewery concert saloon. A young
woman is seated on a mans lap, two
half-empty beer glasses on the table
staring them in the face. And ole
woman stands looking on, bearing
basket of turnips on her arn. Two
musicians are playing, and beer
struck young man leans helplessly
over the table. A Sixth Ward poll
tician, standing in the doorway
holds mug of foaming beer higl
above his head.

A TEMPERANCE TOWN.

A late number Of the Chicago
Times contains en- interesting de-
scription Of Batavia, ILL.,, a town Of
5000 inhabitants, as ian Illinois
burg 10 which Gambin us does not
thrive, and drunkards are unknown
We quote from its sketch the follow
ing;
There is one other thing which
Batavia may boast Of, which can be
said of but very few towns OF its
size in the State. In sll the village,
from one extreme to another, there
cannot be found saloon; not sign
of lager-beer mug overlooking with
the bitter beverage can be seen any.
where, nor the corpulent image of
Gambrinus sitting astride of sup.
posititious beer keg. The sound of
drunken reveIry is entirely unknown
to many Of the peaceful inhabitants,
and the sight OF a Keeling sot in the
streets would provoke the greatest
curiosity and amazement. This
spectacle is never seen, except when
q drunkard is imported while under
the effects of the singing adder
from some OF the neighbOring towns
Aurora, for instance. And it is
also stated upon the very best au>
thority that a dram canaot be OBJ
tanned from any of the drug stores,
nor drop of liquor in any form, ex
cept upon the prescription of ply
stefan. More than this, it is alleged
that a man cannot obtain q pre-
scription unless he is a citizen in
good and regular standing i'll the
community.
So it is no wonder that the town
is SO quiet and peaceful and thrifty,
In all this place of 5000 inhabi-
tants, it was positively stated to a
Times reporter that not pauper is
known TO exist among them not
person requiring any assistance from
his fellows. On the contrary, almost
to man, the people Of the town own
the houses they live in, are free
from debts of all kinds, and are
abundantIy able t. make q good liv-
ing"
