1t Is suggested by some of the temperance
reformers that the pan IN vogue I'm Copenhagen would
be good thing to try in this and other large Cities
When man is found drunk in Copenhagen street late

hack the expense Of the tavern where he got his last
drink There only two difficulties In the applicability
Of this system to the drunksrds who picked up At
night in the streets OF this city The first IL that they
generally too drunk to direct hack driver to their
homes their temporary lodging places The other In
that they generally positively certain where IL
that they got their last drink II the ingenuity Of
temperance reformers can overcome these din.
cues the Copenhagen method may yet be trumphantly
successful in this metropolis There is certainly the ap
pearance Of equity in making the who have caused
pay for having their work carried of from
the public highways.
