CHEF DEvERY'S INDIGNATION.
Policemen Grinncd at His Ls,cs; Anti Gam

Poolroom and gambling house freuIcnters are
saying about town that Chief D"verv must
have been in a humorous mood ono day last
week when he issued a general order which was
read in all the police stations 10 IN" mon. The
order told of the many newspaper report, Of
the existence of poolrDOmS. crap games and
other kinds Of gambling fourishing in the
city. The order said most explicitly that such
things must stop. The Chief even went further
and said he would hold each captain respon-
sible for the district he commanded. and init
mated that he expected a general cleanup If
such a thlnS was really necessary. Along
toward the end Of the order, the Chief moral
l2ed a follows:
Such conditions should not exist in a great
city like ours where the Police Department
regulations are SO strict in relation to lmbling

There is in the human breast a sense
of justice, the noblest relic of that image
of God in which man was first created.
Our nature is majestic, even in its wreck
AS the broken column, half hidden in the
sand, reveals the ancient glory of Baalbec
So amid the ruins of the fall we discover
traces of the grandeur of soul with which
man was originally endowed. The
achievements of science reveals the SPLEEN
dor of his intellect, though darkened by
sin. The sweet charities that bloom still
in the desert he has made, disclose him
as once the peer of the angels in love. The
very superstition that covers in fear be-
fore its bloody affairs proves his early
priesthood amongst the worshippers of
God And so this rugged sense of justice
remains-shattered and defaced 1t may be,
blinded by passion, warped by prejudice,
laundering through error and ignorance
into a thousand mistakes; yet there IL is,
a permanent attribute in man answering
back through conscience as it's organ to
the justice that is in God.
Indeed, it is just this principle that I'M
derlies the whole framework of govern
ment and law. The magistrate would bear
the sword in vain, and all the insignia of
the empire would be a mockery, were not
the instinct Of obedience planted in the
human breast. The whole machinery Of
justice In our courts would lock, unless
driven by this spirit within its wheels.
Conscience becomes the organ Of law, sim
ply because 1t interprets before its secret
tribunal that unpronounced sense of JUS
tice which lies at the foundation of our
moral nature. Hence when this becomes
corrupt or fails to be duly educated, men
wax impatient Of the artificial restraints
of law, and those gigantic systems OF
despotism are created. which simply over
whelm resistance by the exhibition of
brutal force.
THE argument to our conclusion is very
short. II there be in man this inera1i-a-
BILE principle of Justice, the conversions
by which the entire fabric of society is
held together, then should we expect o
trace its operation through the whole do
main of history. II is no dormant pror-
erty of our nature, but one lying at the
root of all human activity in every sphere

members. IT was given on Wednesday
evening at the home OF Mr.. and Mrs.

occasions has proved to be an ideal
place for summer gatherings. The
spacious grounds and wide veraudas,
beautifully lighted and decorated, pre-
sented pleasing picture to the ap-
preaching guests Within the house,
cut flowers and potted plants were
everywhere, and myriads of candles in

Mrs. Mary s. Lockwood Of WashiL gton
d. c.. was opened by the President Of
the Woman's National Press Associa-
ton, Mrs. Els. Cromwell. with few
words in regard to the relation between
newspaper women and club women
She spoke a few words OF encourage
ment to the young woman journalist
and showed the kindly attitude Of the
club woman toward the press
In response to call from the chair
Mrs. Buchwalter OF Ohio said. "She
never talked except in her Sleep" but

cluded that she was not asleep.
Perhaps none OF the speakers were
greeted with more cordiality than Mrs.
Helen M. Winslow OF Boston, editor OF
the "Clubwoman," the official organ OF
the G. F. W. c., and as she talked she
grew in popularity, and offered as a
proof Of the advancement OF journalism
that the woman's page was no longer
filled with c:pes for doughnuts, direc-
tons for making baby socks and other
literary pap, which the old time editor
thought suitable for the wonan's page.
Sallie Joy White spoke of the grow
ing Importance Of woman's place in
journalism and gave the wholesome ad.

pense Of loyalty"

turned some Flashlights on the Press. -
when she described the ideal newspaper
and insisted that it should not be lurid,
libelous. or sensational; that women
should not be showed into one corner OF
the newspaper, there to revel in recipes,
but if the managing editor must have a
woman's page, let it have the value Of
all the culture of club women for even
baked beans in Boston had a better
flavor after course in Browning.
Mrs. Westover Allen, who opened the
discussion on Mrs. WEIGHS paper was
one Of the best speakers at the session
and was greeted and interrupted with
applause and given "call' at the close.
She made plain the difficulty Of making
a Police Gazette and Harpers Bazaar
out Of paper at the same time. and
to please the changing public taste.
Mrs. Josephine Woodward spoke of
the little cape still existing between the
press woman and the club woman. She
made the point that the club woman
takes little matters too seriously and
that the press woman takes Zig things
too lightly and urged that they should
meet on the ground of reciprocity.
Mrs. Berth d. Knobe Of Chicago,
spoke Of the club woman and said that
the club woman not only had cause to
criticise the things that we're printed.
but was open to congratulation for the
things that we're suppressed.
The meeting closed with a speech
from Miss iona Gale OF Milwaukee. who
scored the club woman for giving too
much attention to hair dressing, mani
curing and dressnaker, and too little
to the small courtesies that oil the ma
chinery Of daily lite.
