his head out of the window and the

Van, ''come and release me and settle

SINGLE-TAX SOCIETY.
Considering Means of Obtaining Desired

Considering Means of Obtaining Desired
objects.
The Sinele-taX Society met last evening
at Pythian Hall on Market street, L. NJ.
Manner presiding. After a piano solo by
Professor George Eckman and a brief ad-
dress by the President, James Il. Mills was
introduced as the speaker of the evening,
and treated the sing le-taX question in man
ner which called for frequent and hearty
outbursts of applause from the audience.
He said that the subject of economic re-
form was exciting investigation from The
thinking classes of all nations. There is a
deep-seated conviction, born of analysis,
that there is something radically wrong in
the present system. With this conviction
comes the question, How shall this wrong be
righted? There must be a solution some
where, for all human experience proves that
things refuse to be mismanaged long.
There are two great political parties in
United States. Both are representatives of
aggregated capital, the Republican party of
Northern capital and the Democratic party
OF Southern. Both claim to be our refuge.
our only hope. Then there is the Farmers
Alliance, party of more recent birth. In
the speakers opinion, however, the proven
attitude to observe is that of q nonpartls. !.
We must gather our strength, not from
animation With parties with whom we differ
III many things. but from active and thought
ful workers. convinced that their theories
Will result in absolute economic justice.
Mr.. Mills was followed by James Ii.
Barry, who spoke of recent trip to Sacra-
mento IN the interest of the Free Press and
Australian Ballot bills He dwet at con-
siderable length on his great joy and sur
prise at finding several of the distinguished
lawmakers in state of sobriety, and as,
serted that the measures above mentioned
would receive q strong support.
The other speakers were Joseph Leggett,
Henry Please and A. II. Sanborn.

Of late years an attempt is making to as
certain whether the belief of early settlers
that the soil of LiVermore Valley is only
adapted to grain growing is well founded,
and with this end in view number of
orchards have been set out As yet, how
ever, ii is too early to report permanent re-
suits. That fruit trees will grow here is, of
course, readily established, but whether
they will bear sufficiently to pay for cult
walton IS question which, despite sthe as
sertlons OF enthusiasts, yet remains to be
demonstrated. The soil Immediately in the

While orchards are few and of doubtful

great name for themselves.

Commissioner. livermore is chiefly in
debted for the inception and fostering of
this great industry. Mr.. WetmOre was the
first TO enter largely upon the culture of the
grape in this vicinity, and it is owing to his
advice, encouragement and example that the
vineyards about LivermOre can to-day show
probably the largest area planted to the
highest grades Of wine grapes Of any section
in the State.
Mr.. Wetmore has q vineyard near here,
representing a value of some $4,000, uEder

grower, having probably S250O00 invested

similar sum. The j. +. Black estate is an

CAUGHT AT "CRUSOE,"
Boys Will Not Be Allowed to
Gamble On the Streets.

The police authorities have determined to
check the spirit of gambling which is being
manifested in the younger generation. This
spirit seems to have had its nourishment in
the pool-rooms. Gambling on small scale
has become very prevalent among boys,
whose ages ranges from 16 down TO and 7
years.
1t is not alone noticeable among the news
boys and messengers, whose condition of
lie unfortunately permits them to learn
vice more quickly and easier than boys in
other occupations Street Arabs and boot
blacks have also long been known to toss
pennies and indulge in even more intricate
games of chance. Many of these different
classes mentioned carry packs of cards and
In the day, but more often in the night, may
be seen on the stairways of large houses
and III bystreets playingi some game, With
all the gUsto OF an accomplished green-table
knight.
Police officers have reported that there
seems to be sort of gambling mania among
other classes than those mentioned, eSpeci-
ally among school-boys after schOo-hours.
On all of the streets south of Market may
on any afternoon be seen groups Of boys
playing games of chance. if not for money
for cigarette pictures, tops, marbles aud
more valuable articles. Orders have been
issued To put stop to all this, for it tends
to develop into greater evil.
The principal game which IS being played
Is called "CruSOe," and is thought by the
young to have been q favOrte paStme of
the lonely inhabitant of Selkirk's island.
Almost any day boys may be seen playing it
on every other corner in certain sections of
the city.
The game Is played as follows: A GER
tain number of boys each put five cents or
more i'll IA pot. They then throw either a
card or piece of money toward a certain
mark. The one who comes nearest the
mark has what is called first toss He
then takes the coins and, saying either
heads" or tails" filings them in the air.
As many coins as turn up showing the side
called out by the thruwer constitute the
winnings. The second one nearest the
mark then takes his throw, and so on until
the last coin is pOcketed.
Several gangs of boys were observed on
Maiden alley, off Fourth street, playing this
game yesterday and were raided by three
officers The boys on discovering that they
were liable TO be arrested scattered in all
directions.
The officers, however. succeeded in cap
turing four OF the players, who gave their
names at the Southern Station as follows:
Mark Brannan. George German, William
Wood and John Kane. They are not known
to be otherwise vicious or bad. and their az
rest is simply a warning to the young all
over the city that any boy caught gambling
will be arrested. The game of 'Crusoe'' Is
claimed To be a game of chance within the
meaning of the-aW
