Can any one read the following from
the Police Reports of Brooklyn and no
feel that something more must be done
to rid the land and rid the human race o
the horrible curse Of intemperancc?
"The Police Of the Fourth Prccinc
were last evening notified that James
Burns, aged nine years was lying danger
ously i'll at the residence Of James Irving
at No. 398 Kent avenue. The ambulance
was summoned, but before its arrival the
child was dead. Behind the case of the
unfortunate boy there turks a $ DRY OF
drunkenness. degre datiOn and devoted
ness which is in itself powerful temper
Burns, was but short time ago an in
duStrious shoemaker, who was able by
his labor to make a comfortable living
for his family. Burns wife was, however
of dissipatcd habits, and finding that she
had no ambition to keep the house tidy
and neat, Burns himself contracted q
passion for liquor. Then as is usually
the case misfortune crowded fast upon
the family. Burns gave up his shop and
trade and fell into evil ways. Finally
the couple parted and Burns took with
him his son James who despite the fact
that he worshipped a drunken vagabond
had a great affection for his father. The
subsequent life of Burns and his son was
of the most miserable character. Every
cent that the father earned was spent tol
rum, and the boy frequently spent days
without the commonest necessities OF
life. Lodgings were refused to the coup
lie and they were forced to spend theil
nights in wagons and stables in the vi
cinty of Jackson Hollow. Despite al
this, little Jimmy Burns remained faith
full to his besotted parent and nothing
could induce him to desert his father un-
der any circumstances. The exposure
consequent upon their mode of life soon
told upon the boys health and for the last
two or three days he has been ailing but
made very little complaint. On Saturday
last the father got small sum of money
but instead Of spending it upon his fam.
ished son, he invested what little he hat
in drink. At an early hour on Sunday
morning the father, with the boy by tho
hand, reeled into McGoldrick's saloon
on Kent avenue He asked for a drink
and paid for it. The boy who had beer
up all night with his drunken sire was
scarcely able to stand. In a short time
both lay down on the floor of the bar.

until daylight. When discovered by the
barkeeper they were ordered to leave
the saloon. As they were going out o
the place a man named Brady noticed the
chlld's condition and told the father tha
he had better take him to a doctor
Nothing more is known at present of the

THE Law OF FINDING.

The law Of finding is this: The finder
has a clear title against all the world
but the owner. The proprietor Of a
railroad car or shop has no right to de-
mand the properly which may be found
upon his premises. Such proprietors
may make regulations in regard to lost
which will bind their employees,
but they cannot bind the public. The
law Of finding was declared by the King S
Bench one hundred years ago in case
in which the facts were these a person
found wallet containing a sum Of mon-
ey on a shop floor. He handed the
wallet and contents to the shop.kecpcr
to be returned to the owner. After
three years, during which time the owner
did not call for the property, the finder
demanded the wallet and money from
the shop-keeper. The latter refused to
deliver them up on the ground that they
were found on his premises. The find
cr then sued the shop-kecpcr, and IL was
held rs above stated, that against all the
world but the owner the title Of the find
er is perfect. And the finder has been
held to stand in the place of the owner,
so that he was permitted to prevail in
action against a person who found an
article which the plaintiff had originally
found but subsequently lost. The po-
lice have no special rights in regard TO
articles lost, unless those rights are con-
ferred by statute. Receivers Of articles
found are trustees for the finder. They
have no power in the absence Of special
statute, to keep the article against the
finder any more than the finder has to
retain the article against the owner.
