ST. LOUIS COOLERS.

St. Louis has scored the gretest sue cess in exposing and prosecuting hood. ling in the history of municipal govern ment. The grand jury, which was con- vened in that city in the month of June last, has unearthed a nest of corruption, which existed in the city council and which has startled the country From a mere clue the jury and the prosecuting attorney has been so persistent that they have brought to light the fact and sustained it by indispuabfe evidence. that nineteen members of the city council had formed themselves into compact to pass any measure, or prevent any measure for cash payment. The jury was in continuous session for four months Indictment after indictment was found; some of he boodlers bold. ly submitted themselves to the pro cess of he court. relying on the money of the combine to secure acquittal 
 | The grnd jury never weakened in its determination and finally there was a weakening in the ranks of rascality and boodlers stampeded to the office of the prosecuting attorney with offers to confess and furnish the state with evidence. Some of these confessors were received into the service of the prosecution, while the majority were told that their testimony was not need ed and returned to the prisoners dock. The result in St. Louis will be that a number, perhaps a dozen, hereto fore prominent citizens of that city, will be forced into the penitentiary. A public sentiment has been aroused in that city which insure an honest conclusion of the poodle cases, and whereas the people were recently cry |, ing out for relief from the boodlers now the boodlers are crying for mercy at the hands of an outraged constitu- ency.
 f The promised municipal purification ! in St. Louis has attracted the attention of the country and brought wide discussion of necessity for reform in municipal government and sustain it,
 The St. Louis Republic, of last Sun day, contains the following:
 What is the best remedy for mu. nicipal corruption? The final destruc- ton of boodling must come from a new standard of public life in Ameri- can cities.
 "A new public opinion is not neces- sary Public ouinion, as a conclusion of abstract thinking, is already a unit on the evil of bribery and the desirabli- ty of having civic business transacted with the honesty of private business.
 Tolerance in practice is the wrong thing. Some of the very men who cry on the street corners for reform are so faccid in practice that they accep. excuses offered by criminals and assist indicted rascals to escape the penal ties of the law.
 Some of the daily and weekly news papers which shriek for righteousness
 when nothing is doing" begin to ss sail grand juries and prosecuting off
 cers when honest efforts are being made to expose and punish known corrupionists.
 ] How long will 1t take any American city to brace up It's moral practice is . matter of conjecture. The sociol ogist can prognosticate with certain ity, if communities call for scientific information about this particular com | plaint, to the effect that there vii. be no eradication until the stronger class. e discipline themselves to aid the law

HER COMPLAINT WELL BASED,
How Virginia Woman Overcame a

man, worn and aged, but very neat in cal

the door and asked us in, while one of the
rough boys lounging on the porch was dis

Instead of the usual mountaineer's open
fireplace, with iron crane and kettles, was
a surprising arrangement of a cooking

A DICKENS EVENING
CONTESTS OVER THE NOVELIST'S
WORKS ARE POPULAR.
Four Good and Amusing Games That
Are Likewise Instruc-
tive.

Written for The Evening Star.
To entertain a company of varying ages
and tastes there could not be better
plan than An Evening With Dickens.
Young and DID, thoughtful and frivolous.
grave and gay will enjoy an evening of
puzzles founded upon these ever-popular
works.
For the first game of the series secure
at your stationer's a package containing
forty-eight cards. Carte de visite size Is
best for the purpose. Each four cards are
supposed to represent one of Dickens most
famous works, and each of the four bears
the name of character prominent IN
the book represented. For example, the
cards representing the story of David Cop
perfeld have written upon them the
names of Dora" of "Peggoty," of Mr.
Murdstone" and "Wikins Micawber." The
book representing Pickwick Papers could
have sam Weller" and Mrs. Bardell."
..Mr. Snodgrass'' and Mr.. Wrinkle" The
names of heroes which give titles to the
works should not be chosen, as this would
render guessing too easy.
Before beginning the game the cards
should be thoroughly shuffled. They are
then divided equally among all those pres
emit The aim of each player Is to get INTO
his posSeSSion as many as possible or the
books. In order to do this he must know,
or guess correctly, the various characters
OF each story.
On receiving his cards the player exam
ines them, and if he finds any book lays
il aside When no more books can be form
ed the drawing begins Each player draws
from his left-hand neighbor. If by draw
ing he forms book he lays 1t aside. When
no more cards remain in the hands of the
piayers the books counted. Each book
correctly formed counts one point toward
the game Each book incorrectly formed
causes the maker of 1t to lose five points.
The player to whose credit most points
are found when accounts are settled up re-
receives the priZe-a book of quotations
from Dickens works.
If the party is a large one, If 1t exceeds
eight persons, we will say, the forty-eight
cards will hardly be sufficient. As the
number of books cannot well be increased,
increase their size instead. Let each book
contain eight cards bearing the names of
eight characters prominent in the story.
A Hodge Podge.
A.Dickensonian Hodge Podge is yet an
other rousing game. For this seat the COM
pany around table, in the center Of which
are placed a number of small articles,
which, If correctly guessed, will give the
names Of famous characters in Dickens
works The objects forming the name
should not be placed together, but intermin-
gled thoroughly. The players, pencil in
hand, inspect the objects on the table and

BIG TREES AS AN ATTRACTION.
Efforts of Owners of Adjoining Groves
to Make the Most of Them.

From the San Jose Mercury.
There is a comedy going on in the red
woods of Santa Cruz county just now which
is well calculated to add to the gayety OF
nations. 1t seems that nature laid the basis
for contention when she located there the
forest that is known throughout central
California as the big trees. The cupidity
of man added the other elements neces-
sary to the completion of the comedy.
1t seems that in process of time the IA
nous grove of Sempervirons giants passed
into the possession of w. r. WEIGH. Mr..
WEIGH evidently knows a good thing when
he sees it. He also has his share of the al
mightydollar chasing propensity, which is
said to be of the besetting sins of tho
American wherever you find him.
Having bought his property Mr. Welch
reasoned that it ought to produce an in
come. 1t was near the railroad and many
people from the trains evinced a desire to
see the trees. This gave Mr.. WEIGH the
idea he needed, and he proceeded to build a
high fence around his place. The fence OBJ
scured the view and made 1t incumbent on
the tourist who would view the trees to first
separate himself from % cents and give the
same to Mr.. WEIGH.
For a time all went well. The quarters
disappeared into Mr.. Welch's pockets with
satisfactory regularity and life was glad.
But a change came In making his pur-
chase Mr.. WEIGH had neglected to buy some
adjoining land which had few trees upon
it.
This property was bought by NJ c. Hop
kins, who was also willing to make money
But Mr.. Hopkins did not take kindly to the
idea of an entrance fee. He thought 1t bet
ter to build club house and furnish his
guests with pleasant surroundings while
they looked at the trees. He reasoned that
he would not make less, even though he
made 1t indirectly.
Mr. Hopkins did well. but Mr.. WEIGH did
not. The customers of the latter went to
the former and sat the porch of the
club house and looked al Mr. WEIGHS trees.
1t should be stated that Mr.. WEIGH had ne
elected to fence the side of his premises
next to his neighbors' This he proceeded
to do at once. A fence twelve feet high
was erected and once more Mr.. WEIGH was
happy, for the tourists began to patronlze
him again.
His triumph was short lived No sooner
was the view cut off from the porch OF the
club house than Mr.. Hopkins began to
think His thoughts presently resulted In
the arrival of carpenters. These men erect
ed a handsome pavilion twenty-five feet
high with steps leading up to 1t and COM
Portable seats on its platform. Tourists
can sit, on the platform and have an unob-
structed view of the wonder of nature as
disnlayed in Mr. WEIGHS back yard.
Meanwhile everybody in the vicinity Of
the big trees Is waiting for Mr.. Welch's
next move and wondering what it viii be.
