A. III. Baker, of the Illinois States Attor-

made application for extradition papers
for Martin Burke held at Winnipeg, as

SIR:-I am glad to see you have
seen fit to excoriate the dive-keepers
through your enterprising paper. 1t
is true as you say, that these places
are hot-beds of vice. hope that 9TH
er journals will take up the cry and
awaken feeling of hatred against all
such places. Ny poor boy visited San
Francisco some time ago and met with
those who led him into temptation.
He was not long in that city before he
became frequent patron of the dives
Through evil associations he soon ac-
quired the opium habit, and now ne is
confirmed user of it. tried every
way to persuade him to abandon its use
but neither persuasion nor entreaties
seemed able to affect him. Reputable
physicians have informed me that he
is too much addicted to the narcotic
to easily reclaim him from the habit
What a terrible thing this is for a
mother to think of! 1t seems too
chimerical for belief, yet | realize that
ii is true. Oh, you cannot imagine
the sleepless nights that l have passed
thinking of his unfortunate condition
How often have l prayed that death
might come and take him from me
Oh, yes; let us have the internal dives
closed up, so that we may be able to
save our children. When a mothers
love cannot reclaim her offspring from
life of shame, what power can? ]
hnf ,hn In
the welfare of the children at heart
will thank you for your able efforts in
the direction OF right. Mrs. L. B.

Firemen's Reunion.

On Saturday evening, one of those
pleasant reunions, for which Olympia
is SO famous, took place in the Colum-
bia and Firemen's halls, and it may
we'll be said that Olympia was well
represented on that occasion.
At ten o'clock about one hundred
and fifty persons sat down to mag
nificent banquet in Firemen's hall, pre-
pared by the fire department, quite a
large number being invited guests OF
the various fire companies. AS soon
as Justice had been done to the various
good things set before them, the Off
GERS, members and guests repaired to
Columbia hall where a regular old
fashioned love feast was held.
Hon. j. NJ. Murphy was called upon
to act as Pre- ident of the meeting, and
Hon. Thos. H. Cavanaugh as Secretary
and both these gentlemen filled their
respective positions admirably, and to
the satisfaction of all present.
Speeches were called for and res.
ponded to in good old style, many OF
the respondents being old and weii-
tried firemen,
Judge Henry read an appropriate
poem with illustrations, in his usual
comic style.
The contents of dozens of boxes OF
cigars, donated by various gentlemen
in the city, were freely distributed,
while wine, beer and soda water were
literally dispensed. After spending
an hour in pleasant "reminiscences OF
by-gone times, in which the Olympia
fire department received its appropri-
ate share of praise, the audience again
returned to the banqueting hall and
continued to enjoy themselves until
the midnight hour proclaimed the fes
tivities at an end. The occasion was
one long to be remembered by all who
took part in it as most pleasant one
everyone feeling that the Olympia fire
department is second to none on the
Northwest coast.
