OPIUM HOUSE KEEPER ARRESTED
Saturday night Constable Lytz arrested
the proprietor of one of the various
opium dens of this city. Since the
authorities have taken this matter i'll
hand, there has q change taken place
IN moral point of view i'll this COM

common occurrence, most any night,
upon entering any OF these opium
houses, which were then quite public, to
see crowd of boys and men, ranging
from twelve to sixty years OF age, all
lying in huddle. supplied by this in.
spissated juice of the poppy. May it
be said to the credit of the place. those

and no one who has the least respect for
him or herself will be seen about such a
place.
