Poor Mans Clubs

Poor Mans Clubs
NEW YORK, March IA committee
OF the City club, of which Alfred E. Mar
ing is chairman, met at the club recent
~ to discuss the feasibility of establishing
in New York city a scheme of saloons
modelled after the famous Central Public
House Trust Association Of London. The
ldea Is to place drinking of intoxicants in
moderation on a respectable basis
The father of the plan is r. Fulton
Cutting, who viewed it's workings on the
other side. He collected data concerning
1t, which was placed before the City club
for consideration. The general plan in
cludeS big corporation, which will buy
selected saloons, combine them with res
taurants and conduct them in ideal re-
Spectability and in strict observance Of
the law. The hope is that these pleasant
and respectable pieces may become
popular because of the purity of the
goods dispensed and the absence of the
'gln-milI' atmosphere. The London
saloon scheme is Endorsed by many of
Great Britain. Its secretary is Earl
Grey, and among it's vice presidents are
the Bishop of Chester and Joseph
Chamberlain. The managers and as
sistants of the public houses are paid a
commission and salary, and are made
responsible for the proper conduct of the
places. They are not permitted to sell
Hquor to anyone who is habitually a
drunkard.
1t is understood that if the City club
concludes to further the project Mr. Cut
ting will take a leading part in financing
the corporation.

ACTION ON MILEAGE TICKETS.
To Be Confined to Roads Issuing
Them in the West.

CHICAGO March n.-Important action
regarding tickets was taken by the West
ern roads, parties to the mileage bureau,
today Some of the roads have been grad
ually widening the scope Of ordinary
mileage tickets, and practically made
good over other lines than their own.
This gives roads whose lines cover every
part of the territory between the Mis-
souri, river and Chicago a great advan-
manded that they be permitted TO make
their ordinary tickets good over connect
ing roads. The matter was finally COM
promised by restricting the sale of the
2,0C0-mile individual book to lines on one
system only.
In order that the smaller roads would
not be placed at disadvantage, it was de-
cided that they might use those tickets
on fines over which they maintain
through car service.

BAN ON AMERICAN COAL

BERLIN, March T.-August Schulze
who imported several thousand tons of
placed orders for this product contin-
gent upon the likings of the consumers,
says the result has been unsatisfactory,
not owing to the quality Of the coal but
because the German householders do not
know how to burn it, their stoves not
having sufficient draft for such hard
coal.
Herr Schulze declares, however, that
in spite of obstacles, Germany must in
the future depend upon the United States
for her supply of anthracite.

presented tonight at the Duke of Yorlx's

be a poor and rather vulgar play of So

of no great dramatic strength, in spite
of the hard work of an unusually strong
cast, which Included Irene Vanbrugh,
who made her first appearance since her
marriage, Gertrude Kingston, Henry 3.
Irving, Cosmo Stewart and Gilbert Hare.
The play contains no promise of an eX-
tended run. One Individual who called
for the author was promptly hushed to
silence.

PASTOR AND FARMERS LAD.


One of the parish sent one morn
A farmer kind and able
A nice fat turkey, raised on corn,
To grace the pastors table.
The farmers lad went with the fowl,
And thus addressed the pastor:
"Blame me if l amt tired! Here is
A gobbler from my MASTER
The pastor said: "Thou should st not thus
Present the fowl to me;
Come take my chair, and for me act
And l will act for thee
The preachers chair received the boy,
The fowl the pastor took,
Went out with it, and then came in
With pleasant smile and look;
And to his young pro tenn, he said:
Dear sir, my honored master
Presents this turkey, and his best
Respects to you, his pastor"
"Goodp' said the boy. Your master Is
A gentleman and scholar!
My thanks to him, and for yourself.
Here is a half dollar"
The pastor felt around his mouth
A most peculiar twitching;
And to the gobbler holding fast,
He "bolted" for the kitchen.
He gave the turkey to the cook,
And came back in a minute;
Then took the youngsters hand and left
A half dollar in it.
