GENERALSHIP,
Editor Inter Mountain:

Editor Inter Mountain:
Are there no generals" among the
great army of women? Women toling in
sickness and poverty, with scarcely ever
a complaining word, revOlting not at the
unequal struggle; poverty, that grim dis
troyer of health, and happiness, ever
ready, standing sentinel to overwhelm
the stoutest hearts? The wall of starving
little ones seem as music to the ears of
Satans vicious inhuman imps,' who are
ever watching the opportunity to offer
price for the souls of the suffering vic
time, while thousands and millions are
spent in reckless, dssoutel profligate
abandon Oh! the inhumanity toward
suffering humanity.
1t is not inside the four walls Of the
palace we look for purity of purpose nor
for the hearts that respond to the touch
of human sympathy. The millionaire of
today thinks to leave to himself a :nonu-
ment of fame as a phlanthropist, by
erecting in stone and mortar building
to bear his name for centuries, while
many of his own unfortunate kindred
are toiling on in poverty. NeighbOrs,
friends and former associates who have
missed the road to success are ignored. I
wonder if the admonition Love thy
neighbor as myself" did not mean to adj
minister to the needs of the deserving
poor wherever we find them. There are
very few who by dishonest methods and
vicious habits could not for the time be-
ing, turn the wolf from the door. But
that is to only let the devil enter, and
woe, woe to the poor weak victim when
once that incarnate monster takes pos

Hence we find thousands of women
fighting the battles of life, throwing out
the skirmish lines of hope and faith,
trusting in loves strategy to evade the
enemy and to conquer conditions and cir
cumstances, by honest and fearless gen
eralship And who dares to say that those
martyrs, on the alters of whose homes
their lives are daily being sacrificed. are
not the heroines of grander army than
ever was enrolled under the banner or

. New York state is again wrestling with
the old problem of drunkenness. The an
nual report of the prison commission
shows an alarming increase of the evil,
the commitments for the year amounting
to 32,S59. taking no account of the thou
sands who paid fines and escaped i'm
prisonment. The commissioners are UNI
able to recommend a satisfactory pun
ishment, for the report shows that in the
case of the poor men who are arrested
for drunkenness. it is the mans family,
and not the offender himself, upon whom
tie punishment really falls. If fine
is paid, it comes from the very slim
family treasury and in most cases is only
secured at a tremendous sacrifice. On
the other hand if the head of the family
is sent to Jail, the family is deprived of
his earnings, while he himself is well
cared for. This is one problem the COM
mission calls attention to. and the best
the members can do is to recommend
the exercise of very wide discretion on
the part of the judges dealing with such
cases.

for the present it appears to have met
with no favor, large majority of the

SUNDAY PERFORMANCES.

Justice Everett was recently called
upon to decide as to the right Of Chi
cago theaters to give Sunday perform
ances. and in his decision he presented
a summary of the Sabbath day OBJ
servance laws in the country at large.
This particular case was brought
against Kohl and Lift. the former being
the proprietor of the Chicago opera
house. while the latter is the manager
of McNickers theater.
The complaint was that on certain
Sunday the usual performances We're
given in each place. Across the street
from the opera house is a church. and
there was evidence that the theater
have attended the church, and seriously
interfered with people desiring to at
that 'on the. whole, Sunday perform
ances tend to lower the moral tone of
spect for sunday" One witness testi-
fled that on a recent Sunday he saw
and heard brass band playing in front
of McVickers theater, and that the
noise disturbed the peace and quiet of
the Sabbath. The Illinois law provides
that whoever disturbs the peace and
good order of society by labor works
of necessity and charity excepted, or
by any amusement or diversion on
Sunday, shall be fined not exceed
ing $50
In dismissing the complaint on the
ground that the performance did not
create amy disturbance affecting the
peace and good order of society,"" the
Judge said:
THE complaining witness in these
actions does not complain of having
been himself disturbed at any time by
the Sunday performances, nor have any
of the church people who have testified
begun any prosecutions. The complain
ant has not himself been disturbed, nor
have people whom he says have been
disturbed made complaint. While any
person knowing Of an offense may COM
plain, yet the fact that the complainant
has not suffered, in case alleging a
general evil, may be considered as part
of the evidence" s,.r
Going at considerable detail into the
Sabbath day laws of the other states
in the country, the justice stated that
thirty one states prohibit Sunday the
! atrical performances, and that in gem
eral these laws are based on an Eng
! fish statute passed in 1876, which re-
CURED people to observe the day "by
exercising themselves in the duties of
piety and true religion publicly and
privately, The offense under the Eng
lish statute and those N this country
based on it, is the. performance Of
labor or business on the Sabbath,
whereas the offence under the Illinois
- .-..- A
law is mercy the disturbance of the
peace and good order OF society"
1t was the intent of the Illinois
statute to establish law upon a policy
peculiar to itself and zone best adapted
to the. citizens. Concluding his opinion
the justice saNsssit therefore follows
that So long as the theaters do not
actually disturb the peace and good Or
der of society by creating a physical
disturbance there. is. no violation of; the
law in giving Sunday performance.

Detectives Have Already Recovered
Good Deal of stolen property.
Martha Campbell, colored, living at No.
556 William street. was arrested yester-
day morning by City Detectives Stark,
Murphy and Wall and locked up on
charge of being a suspicious character.
The officers say that the woman is a
clever shoplifter and that she has been
robbng the smaller business houses for
some time. The detectives say that they
already have several charges against the
woman and that several more will be add
ed to the list before she will be given a
hearing in Police Court. A large quantity
of clothing. capes and like articles were
found in the woman's house by the Off
GERS and they also have a large number
of pawn tickets for similar articles
The police say that the woman was ac-
companied by a little girl when she made
her trips for plumber and that the child
carried the basket that the stuff was put
in. The girl would attract the attention
of the clerk while the woman would fill
the basket. Most of the sufferers were the
proprietors of small stores.
