About a Lottery.
The charter Of the Louisiana Lottery
Company is about to expire, and the
proprietors thereof are very anxious to
have it renewed in one shape or other,
because the business is very profitable.
They have tried it on in various States,
without success. In Nevada they came
very near carrying a constitutional
amendment permitting the traffic, but
tailed because the scheme was not big
enough to allow majority of the voters
share of the profits. Then they tried
it in one of the Dakotas and came very
near winning, but slipped up because
their friends did not dare to face the
music. 1t would not pay to sacrifice a
political career for the sake of what the
lottery could give them. For the lottery
people are rot unlike Mrs. Gilpin
Although on pleasure she was bent,
she had frugal mind" To be sure,
some Indian tribe, the Greeks or the
Cherokees or some other, authorized q
lottery, but the Indian agent sat dowr

An Anti-Lottery League has been or
gained in New Orleans, composed of
business men and politicians. This
will make vigorous fight
against the proposed extension of the
charter of the Louisiana bottery Com
pany The AntiLottery League has
issued circular in which it calls at
tention to the effort of the lottery to
secure a renewal of its charter, says
the passage of a constitutional amend
ment to that effect would imperil the
Democratic party in the State, and
would involve virtually a submission
of the question to the decision of the
colored vote, and that it behooves all
good citizens who desire the abolition
of this great gambling institution and
the removal of its corrupting influence
from politics to give helping hand in
the contest. In conclusion it urges
Organization in every parish in the
State, and calls upon the leading
spirits in each locality to join.

The Louisiana Lottery SwindIe.


Mayor Cregier has given it out that he
intends to suppress pool-rooms as well
as other gambling places. Perhaps he
intends to carry out his promise. Let
us hope 50. Perhaps he does not. But
Chicago will not be free from gambling
if he does. There are lottery agents
in this city
The notorious Louisiana lottery has
an agency here, with headquarters at
No. 122 Washington street, opposite
the City Hall A person named Moore,
who was indicted some time ago in
connection with that nefarious concern,
is the principal agent. His hacker is
a New Orleans gambler named Bush,
and his sub-agents are saloon keeper
named Hogan who also runs or has
run a gambling den; Mike Lawler, also
a saloOn-keeper, and a man named
Erby, who is a clerk somewhere. 1t
is estimated that those fellows take
$500, 1000 per annum out of Chicago.
Encouraged by the success of these
people, the Kentucky lottery has es-
tablished an agency here under one
Morton, ostensibly a real-estate man.
The Mexican lottery has also been
planted here.
There are laws and ordinances
against these lottery agencies Why
are they not enforced? Agents, man
ayers or sellers of tickets may be fined
not to exceed 50, 900 for a first offense.
A second offense is punishable by a
fine and imprisonment not to exceed a
year in the County Jail. Will the
Mayor suppress those lottery agen'
cies? They are well known to the
police,

Not at all. but have seen so much suffering
so many women who are miserable, that
cannot help feeling sorry for them all. How

should? Is this not enough TO make one feel
sorrowful:'
There must be a cause for all this, DOCTOR
There is. Women are weak and their trou-

woman is weak she requires strength. Her

Elder John NJ. Tanner,

No doubt the benefit we derive from these
conferences depends much upon the attention
we give them. If man would make progress
Intellectually, he must devote attention to the
effort so if he would have his faith increased
and his spiritual nature strengthened, he must
give attention TO the teachings he hears from
the servants of the Lord, No doubt some of the
saints at the conference.-the go away moro ben

necessity of reforming their lives, but others
viii have their minds too much engrossed in
temporal matters TO attend 10 their spiritual
welfare.
The Jews of all nations have similarity
with each other They have similar purposes
and aims. and have preserved their identity as
race. They have been aided TO do this by the
early training received by assembling together
at Jerusalem from distant regions and countries

who has attended this conference in proper
! spirit will fail to feel that he has been amply
repaid FOR SO doing. In the times of SolomoD's
temple, there were different gathering hello in
dliierent parts OF the temple grounds to re-
ceive instruction. We see in modern Israel q

The speaker dwelt upon the celebration of
Easter by the roman and Greek churches, and

teresting manner. He also described at length
the ceremonies and exercises which take place
at Easter, IN the Church of the Holy Sepulchre
AT Jerusalem. portraying the ignorance and
ianaucism OF the worshipers. He also de-
scribed the babel of confusion which exists
among the different Christian sccts of Jerusa-
iem ana their hatred of each other, showing
how the infidel Turk was compelled TO inter
fere to prevent Christians from staying each
other.
How different 1t is with us, With what diff.

this was made known TO the architects,

Board might reject the plans and the com
