THE FAULT FINDER


| AEusion has been made in this col
umn to the criminal practice on the
part of saloons of admitting young
girls to their wine rooms The police
have made q commendabIe effort to
discourage the PRACTICE by a-resting
the girls and threatening the pro-
prietcrS of the places. Yesterday a
gentleman said he had just seen four
young. girls, daughters Of very respect
able parents, though already rather
past respectaibility themselves. sneak
ing into saloon by rear entrance.
1t is a rather difficult, if not impcs-
sible matter to cinch a saloon pro
prietOr for permitting this thing. The
wine room, though a part CT the sa-
loon, is not directly under the eye Of
the keeper. II may b. entered
from the rear and it would be hard to
prove that the keeper is aware of the
personnel of the occupants Liquor is
usually ordered at the bar and carried
to the wine room by the companions of
the girls. A police regulation might
/ be adopted requiring saloon keepers
and Dartenders 20 lake means to find
cut who their patrons are.
Another thing that ought to be done
by the police IS to arrest the girls
whenever InEy are 1Ound IN these
places and IN effort should be made to
find them. When they are arrested
there should be 10 conce aIment OF
their names. There is no danger CT
injuring their character A girl who
goes into q wine room has deliberately
succumbed to temptation and if she
had any character before she went
into the place she isft Il there. Mis-
taken secrecy will do her no real good,
but the terror of publicity may make
other girls afraid to &C. 1 do not like
to dwell on this subject. It is equally
narrowing to see, to write about and
to read. But there is so much Of this
peculiar youthful feminine cussedness
prevalent here that something ought

The knocker is discouraged but not
quite to the extent of absolute silence
yet. A few of him are still question

hens iole to him that since he does not

THE sEA-DEvIL ORATOR.

So much has been said of late
through the columns of the papers and
out of the mouths of the spell-binders
who are assisting the democracy in its
efforts to land on a promising issue,
about the dreadful octopuses recently
Matched which are reaching out their
greedy tentacles over a covering na-
ton, that the public may be interested
in the description OF real octopus.
A Pacific sailor plying between our
coast and Honolulu tells in these
words of enc of the sea devils that
crossed the course of his good ship:
Its eyes were large, of a grsenish
tint and somewhat prCEruding; its
mouth, however, was not SO very large,
and it appeared to be 1haped
like parrots bill j. ap-
peared to possess the chamel-
eon-like power af changing color in
most extraordinary manner as fast as
the eye could detect the changes. Sud
denly the octopus discharged jet of
a dark colored fluid into ..he eyes OF
the sunfish, and rushing forward with
the rapidity of an arrow it encircled
its prey with the long tentacles, and in
vanquished had disappeared. In q few
moments more we had sailed right

like it. The Allen law fight is likely to be
prolonged through several weeks and TO
occupy the attention of both houses to the
exclusion of almost everything else, until
the questions involved shall be definitely
and conclusively settled. A resolution pro-
viding for the calling of a constitutional
convention will no doubt be presented early
in the session. The sentiment of members,
as developed so far. does not appear 10
favor a general revision of the Constitu-
ton.
Labor legislation will occupy large share
of attention. The events of the past year,
more particularly the mining troubles at
Virden and Pana, have created pro-
nounced sentiment in favor of laws which
will effectively prevent the importation of
laborers in large numbers from other States.
There is a general feeling among members
in favor of a law which will keep out of
the State armed bodies of cheap laborers
from other States, such as precipitated the
Virden riot. Important railroad legislation
is likely to be proposed. An effort will be
made to extend the jurisdiction Of the rail-
road and warehouse commission so as to
include street railways, sleeping-car COM
panies, telegraph and telephone companies
and express companies. Legislation to this
end is recommended by the commission it.

power to pass upon the advisability of the
