We are to stamp out this class Of crime.
then let us be just and fair and impair

ders to spy upon all the prostitutes in
our city. be they men or women, great

let them all alike be brought to justice,
men or women, and let the officers know
that this council will approve their

One more word I want to say with refer

they lead a quiet and retired life; they
don't disturb the peace and dignity OF
our good and virtuous city, and they
don't do anybody any harm in particular
but on the contrary find that they con-

fare OF quite a good many of our bust

Councilman Speice rejoined that, as
cOuncilmen, our duty in this matter is
so very plain that there ought not to be
the least question about it. My friend
Gluck assumes to espouse the cause of
the White House
Gluck-Instead of one White House,
you would have a dozen green houses.
Speice-I am not in favor OF tOlerat-
ing any of these wenehes anywhere, in
white or green or yellow houses; there is
no law Of state or city that justifies that
course OF conduct OF our part. they have
no right to ply their Internal business
anywhere, and as to tolerating them for
the sake of a few dollars they may bring
to a few classes of business, 1 would as
soon think of it as 1 would Of coming my
grandmOther's coffin. You know as well
as 1 can tell you that under our oath of
office as councilmen We are in conscience
bound to rid the city OF this evil. God
help the business men who can't live
without the money derived from such a
source.

SCHOOL REPORT.
International CyclOpedi liza

SySiOPtoi~.
A fact, which speaks for itself. We
take pleasure in announcing that the
Chicago board Of education has adopted
the International as the CyclOpedia
hereafter to be purchased for the pub
lie schools Of the city. A number Of
sets have already been ordered and put
in use.
In view Of the competition inevitable
in a center like this (and in this particu-
lar case very severe and persistent), the
vote Of the board in favor of the Inter-
national, after a thorough examination
and discussion Of this and other works,
carries great significance.
Rev. Howard Crosby, formerly Chan
cellor Of New York University, says Of
it: l have carefully examined your In
ternational ~Cyclopedia, and find it ex-
actly the book of reference best suited
for family use. I used to consider
Chambers the best for this purpose, but
the International is far beyond my old
standby. 1 have read articles on sub
jects on which I was specially informed,
aud have found the work done with ac-
curacy. Irefer especially to the new ar
ticles which comprise 80 large a part of
the cyclopedia. The Rev. r. G. Greene
is one Of the most exact scholars in our
country, and the marks Of his skillful
hand are everywhere present in the vol
umes. He has rightly defined the prov
ince Of a c~yclopedia, to give both sides
of important questions and to decide
nothing. This definition he has faith
fully illustrated in these fifteen grand
volumes. The most important articles
