Mrs. +. A. Williams summed il up as follow:
1.-THE only effect of high license is 10 make q
COZ ner in the liquor market. 1t does not put a
stop TO drinking nor drunkenness. nor does il
diminish either a single bit. IL does no good
TO compromise with evil thing. The proper
course is to wipe il out. There IL
no principle in high license. IL h
ONLY policy. The liquor traffic is an
undoubted evil and as such should be stopped.
If il is wrong TO allow liquor to be sold il
should be prohibited entirely. 1t is against the
principles of the W. c. T. Y. ever TO license and
thus to legalize an evil"
MRS. BovEE's VIEWS.
Mrs. Annie E. Bovee, superintendent Of ths
department Of hygiene, said: The union n
unanimously opposed to license. II il wrong.
When we women want 70 break our children ~
bad habit we do not allow them 10 in
dulge in it TO certain extent or on
certain occasions We try 70 stsn
il entirely. And so il In visf
the liquor business. One saloon on a sous,.
does rs much harm as dozen. II Won cIo.s
the low groggeriss il simply sends the driniins
men to the saloons of a so-called higher ciass
and puts more money into the pockets Of 49,
richer saloon keepers. High license n not =
remedy nor a cure for the liquor evil.

A Hilarious Party Go Out for a Drive and
Enjoy Smash-UP.
About the time daylight began to appear
yesterday morning, while the heavens were
lit up with myraid of twinkling stars and
the aurora borealis flashed in super ambient
splendor in the northern sky, four tired
looking travellers might have been seen
vending their weary way into the city from
the west. Two Of them were women and
two were men. One of the men was leading
a pair of jaded horses, covered with mud
and dirt and bearing pair of bedraggled
harness. The appearance of the outfit was
far from prepossessing. They appeared to
have come long distance, and it was
rightly surmised by the few pedestrians
whom they met at that early hour that they
had been out on a huIrah and had met with
an accident.
1t was learned later on that the party had
started out early in the evening to take
ride in hack. They visited several resorts
in the city where various compounds are
dispensed to thirsty and tired individuals
and then concluded to drive out in the sub
urbs and enjoy the cool and refreshing
breeZes Of the night. Several road houses
were taken in on the way and the party
eventually found themselves in the vicinity
of the new burying ground on Seven Mile
CIeeh. AZ Lulo pOluU AcA1CsAAlcAto "CIo AZ
dulged in at well-known resort and the
party started on the return to town.
One of the fair but frail occupants of the
vehicle was handling the ribbons and
seemed proficient in the art. But, unfortu-
nately, seven Mile creek is spanned by u
bridge at this point. 1t is fully twelve feet
wide, but it proved too narrow for the pas
sage of the vehicle. Horses, hack and occu-
pants wero suddenly, and without warning,
dumped unceremonlously into the stream.
Strange to relate, nobody was hurt. but
$500 hack was smashed into smithereens
and had to be hauled into town on a wagon.
Tho inside passenger, when he realized
what had Happened, was very mad, and:
drawing large calibre revolver, threatened
to shoot the driver on the spot. But better
counsel prevailed, and he was permitted to
live, in consideration of the fact that he
had just lost 5000 hack that belonged to
his employer.
