Saloons Increasing Under High License.

The imperfect;ons of the high license law
are becoming more convincing day by day.
and the Prohibition party is making con-
verts in consequence. The Women's Christ
ian Temperance Union of this county adopt
ed resolution approving of high license at
their convention last fall. Another conven-
ton was held Il short time ago. at which the
ladies passed IL resolution dcnouncing the
working of the law The saloons. beer
gardens and dives sell liquor openl:. on Sun
days in this city. The clause in the bill in
regard to constables being responsible for
Sunday selling is utterly disregarded at
present. Last spring several conscience
stricken constables reported a number OF
fragrant violations to court. but through the
magnetic influence of the Berks County
Liquor League. of which Gel. b. G. Keller. Il
prominent Republican ringle;dcr. is the
President. all the cases were suppressed
and reported adversely. Since that time
not Il single case of liquor violation has been
in court.
AS an instance of the open nature of these
violations, the case of Larry" p. Ressler.
the proprietor of The Casino" is given.
Mr.. Ressler's saloon is located within a
stones throw from the residence of Judge
j. Hngenman. and it is the open boast of the
day during tho past year. The proprietor is
leading sporting man and has Il strong
political pull" and the Judge is u candidate
for reelection. The Prohibition vote in this
county will probably be trebled this fall. as
scores of voters are leaving both parties
daily. Since the passing Of the law. two
additional beer gardens have been opened in
this city. and a large number OF Philadel-

TO console her, but she continued TO sob for sew
eral moments. Moore then appealed to the
officer not to take them to JAIL and said: at
will break her heart" The Chief ut first declared
that they must go, but finally consented that
they might remain i'll their room ut the hotel
under Surveillance OF an officer. This had the
effect of quieting Mrs Norton. Then she began
to rlicule the idea of their arrast on the charge
of grand larceny.

Mr. Moore then inquired where he could en-
ploy good attorney. The names of several were
mentioned, and ut Mr.. Moore's request IN officer
was at once dispatched for Judge Henry Keller
who soon arrived and consulted privately with
the runaways. Moore did not have as much to
say about tn. escapade as Mrs. Norton. When
tho officer inquired what led to tho elopenlent
he said he had nothing to say at this time

He was somewhat nervous, and acted like
u man who had either been foiled i'll
plot, or regretted what he had done. and had
lost heart to csrry it 10 contamination. He
said the charges against him and Mrs Norton
were unfounded They brought nothing belong

$4,000; he wished they had $4,000. Since he
came here he and his companion had gone about
the city much the same us any strangers visit
ing the city would, promenading the public
streets and riding on tho street cars.
Mrs. Norton moved uneasily about the room at
first, sitting in chair, then going to bed where
she fulnbled with bits Of laces gloves, fan and
other trinkets of female ndornnient. She APP

Committed the rash act. Indeed. the conduct
of both parties warranted the belief that they
regretted their departure from st. Louis, al;
though Mr.. Moore tried to appear jolly, and
wanted to leave the impression that he WAS un-
disturbed, and that love, not he, is to blame:
He spoke bitterly OF the ST. Louis papers, and
said he had rend their idctic fiction with pitying
delight. The stories about his debts in ST.
Louis worried him considerably and he was
more anxious that charges relating to them
should be denied first of oil. AS to the ccnse-
quences OF what they hnd done, he was resigned

nothing but pity for his erring wife; but for his
false friend his hate is implacahle. 1t has

disappointment to many.
Tommy Burns great hit in the first inning

1t was one of the many instances this season
when the clever little third bnsoman has "been
there" when most wanted.
Two thousand people, at the lowest calcula-
ton, witnessed the games from adjacent win
dows and housetops.
No such demonstration has ever been seen
upon the home grounds as that which took place
when the Chicago second base1nan tied the af-
ternoon game in the seventh inning by u cleverly
and assisting Arson to cross the plate. The
crowd was up in q minute and such u tossing of
hats and canes, such wild and ear-destroying

wept because they could not make more noise
