veneered with brick by September /. Madam Or fin
violated her agreement Of course In fact che never
keeps promise, and the wooden addition stands
1t did last summer, will undoubtedly continue to
stand until the council actually copels her to eth
enclose it in brick tear 1t down. In the inter-
ests Of morality the latter would most certainly be
the true course, for there is probably not more dis
graceful nor rotten den among all the dives of the
city than that run by Mrs. Griffin. Repeatedly she
has been taken into the police conrt and fined for
various degrees Of l.wess acts perpetrated in her
bagnlo and as frequently she has made solemn
promise to reform the code Of morals which govern
her house, and still as frequently has she broken
her pledge. The people living in the neighborhood
are getting somewhat indignant, and something will
probably be speedily done for the good OF the COM
munity.
