THE WOMEN WON.
No Legal Recognition of Sex in the
 Saloon Business.

The trial by jury Of Odette Lambert and Cora Bernard, charged with main taining a disorderly house on Fifth street between Madison and Jackson, took place Yesterday afternoon in Jus- tice JohnstOne's court. These two women, formerly Of the half world or less than half, professed reformation after females of their class were driven from the city. To prove that they meant what they said and had really and truly reformed, they opened a sa- loon in the Gould building and beside a stock of liquors, put in a piano. This saloon jared Henry Moeller, who lives about half block away, and he 1, instituted a movement for their re noval before they had got fairly start
 d on their reformed lire. He brought
 It up in bhe city council and the council cromised to pass an ordinance cover
 ng the case. That has not been done yet Then MT. MoeIler made com plaint to the county authorities, charg ing in the first place that the saloon was run by women. that they had q piano upon which inharmonious music was played, that questionable char acters visited the saloon and that loud and vulgar profane language was used. The trial occupied nearly all of the afternoon. The jury deliberated upon the case for long time and finally disagreed, eight favoring acquittal and four conviction. The case was thep dismissed
 As the law now stands the com plaint is believed to have been based on insufficient grounds, or rather on none at all. There is no legal reason why woman may not engage in the saloon business as we'll as in the mill; rery business It is true that saloon conducted by woman is apt to become free and easy sort of place, but the law cannot anticipate that it will bo so. The evidence showed that there was singing not quite classical, loud talk and even profanity, but the same thing might have been truthfully testt. fled of a half dozen of the leading sa- Icons of the city. A saloon differs in many essential respects from a Sunday school, and in the matter of quiet 1t in no wise resembles deaf and dumb asylum. It is true of all saloons that they are frequently visited by persons who pretent to no religious faith and some of the guests of the most orderly saloons are even ungodly and im- moral. The conversat.on is not cor fined to biblical discussions, literature and art, and the language employed is often unchaste and punctuated with

VIVA MEXICO.
Celebration of inc 56fh An
 niverSnry of Freedom.
The Exercises Began Last Night to be Followed by More Imposing Ceremonies Today.

The celebration of the eighty-eighth republics At z o'clock the Mexican was begun last night at o'clock. The Pioneer band paraded the principal streets. A salute of twenty-one guns had been fired in honor Of the sister republic. At z o'clock the Mexican national guard having formed in front of the residence of the president of the Mexican club, marched to the military plaza where stand bright with the red, white and green of Mexico, and the red, white and blue of the United States, had been erected. High up among the decorations was a large portrait of the priest, Hidalgo, who had given the Me aicans a glorious holiday. Other portraits of other lead CTS in the movement of freedom were prominently displayed.
 After the singing of the national hymn Jose S. Provencio read the act of independence. Between the num- bers of an excellent musical pro- gramme, patriotic and felicitous speeches were delivered by B. Qui- nones, Thomas B. Flannigan, Consul Navarro and Pedro G. de la Lama
 There was large audience composed of not only Mexican residents, but Americans who took hardly less in

terest in the exercises, and national airs of the United States were enthusi- astically cheered by representatives Of both republics. The annual and beau tiful ceremony Of raising the Mexican flag took place at midnight.
 The principal ceremonies Of the eel ebration will take place today. They will begin at o'clock this morning, with a parade by the band and the members of the patriotic club. An im- posing parade will take place at 8 o'clock this afternoon under the direc- ton of Pedro B. Salazar, the marshal of the day, and his aides, Marshal Hooker, G. c. Gonzalez and F. Qui- nones. The parade will consist of civic orders and societies, federal and territorial officials, floats representing Justice Liberty" and America" the United States of Mexico and the United States of America, and Cuba. Mexico and the United States. There will also be floats representing ousi- ness firms. The Pioneer Dand will be assisted in the parade by the Indian school band
 The parade will be followed at 5 o'clock by a programme of literary ex- ercises at the plaza. and addresses by H. M Willis, Victoria Para and oth- CTS. The ceremonies of the day will close with an entertainment beginning at s o'clock at the O'Neill building, and the most elaborate celebration ever held in Phoe.lix of Mexican inde- pendence will come to an end.
 The struggle of Mexico against Spanish misrule has long been a chap ter in history It had been going on for many years, but the beginning of 5he end occurred on the night of Sep tember 15. 1910, when a revolt headed by Don Miguel Hidalgo broke out in the province of Guanajunto. The influence of Hidalgo among the Indians at once made the insurrection formidable and It one time the priest had 100000 men

cuss words uttered in a high key. These objectionable features and incl dents of a saloon are as liable to exist and occur as the saloon is apt to have a bar with whisky and other alcoholic beverages behind it.
 It was not denied that all that MT. Mceller had complained of was true. but a majority of the jury believed that he was expecting too much. The female defendants had not reopened the Gould place for the purpose of or ganizing Christian Endeavor society or for running an ice cream and soda water joint, where their guests were supposed to talk in whisper on re- ligious and moral subjects. That wasn't the kind of a resort the defend ants pretented to conduct. It was just plain saloon.
