Despair InVades the Old
Time HauntS.
THE NEW LAWS GOOD WORK
Barred Doors and Curtained Windows
Replacing Haunting Signs and
Traps for the Unwary.

A canvass OF the Tenderoin district and
BaTOary Coast last night disclosed the fact
that the fag-end of the evil remains un-
checked Many of the minor resorts on
Pacific and Kearny streets and MoDtgOm-
cry avenue have been effectually closed by
reason of the owners failure to secure a
renewed liquor license, but the large places
stubbornly refuse TO yield to fate and are
still open, with continued orgies. TEN
perance drinks" have taken the place of
cheap whisky aud sloppy beer. but the
shameless creatures find it difficult to at
tract customers when Intoxicating liquors
cannot be readily secured. TO partially
overcome this drawback the women carry
poeket-flasks of whisky, and. with great
pretense of secrecy and caution, they offer
The patron drink. The "bottle" is an ex-
pensive but catchy scheme. but bids fair to
become fad with the sirens of the coast.
The dance halls and cheap theaters stub
bornly refuse to be abated, and soda water
and similar weak draGghts are dOled out
with a CELEBRITY that merits use In better
cause. The real rank, wicked dives are
doomed, though. and the shabby pre-
tense OF continuance is discOuraging and
pTOfitleSs 10 the owners. But Few OF the
tfty-eight places mentioned remain open,
but they are the worst of the entire lot
and remain a menace and snare.
The antl-dive ordinance is powerful
and effectual weapon, and its weight tells
every time one of the bTaZen-faced dive
keepers applies for renewed license. he
is fatty and firmly refused. unless he can
bring an Endorsement OF character that
ms ures 1.-THE Police Commissioners free
dom from criticism. This proof OF good
character he cannot secure. not 10 men
ton the many other qualifications that
are factors of the success OF an application
to sell liquor In the downtown districts.
A large percentage of the places have
been closed, and the doom OF the remainder
is sealed. Some of them have lew days
10 run on their old licenses, and then
come attempted renewal and consequent
TeDulse. They are gOing-g0ne-but their
patrons aud their habtueS remain, para
sites upon the community. and the foun-
dalton fer a plague OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
what shall we do tor the dive walters ~
remains unsolved. So far ;fey have gone
from place To place, AS the dives gradually
closed. When the last one ruts up Its
shutters and 10 Ks its doors for all time.
where then viii the women walters turn
for livelihood? It's a serious propUsi-
ton. and the necessity Of its immediate
solution IS rendered more apparent each
day.
