VICE NOT NECESSARY.
Men Have No Right to Gamble
Get Drunk, or Debase
Themselves.

1t is often said in extenuation
of the vice and crime which the
courts are uncovering in Indian
apolis every day, that a certain
amount of gambling, a certain
amount of illicit liquor selling, a
certain amount of rape, certain
amount of prostitution, abor-
ton, robbery and riot will always
exist in every city the size of
indianapolis, and that it is too
much to expect the authorities
to suppress it all and to give us
a clean city, morally as we'll as
physically.
1t seems to The Star, as it has
always seemed, that this condo
nation of wrong doing and OF lax
official conduct is spurious and
pernicious. 1t is not necessary
that we should have gambling
at all, or illicit liquor selling, or
bawdy houses, or women and
children drinking in saloons. If
it be said that there are those
who wish to gamble, then it is
replied that they do not need to
gamble, that they can refrain
from it as we'll as others can, that
the law forbids it, and that the
law can be enforced if the at
tempt is honestly and persistent
ly made.
Men talk as if among the in
alienable rights of man were in
cluded the right to gamble, to
get drunk, to debauch and to run
riot. There is no such right, and
there is no wrong done anybody
when such acts are relentlessly
pursued and punished. Nobody
needs to do any of these things.
1t is no hardship on any man to
be required to live a decent life.
The worst and most ineXcus-
able defense of vice is that which
is put forth from official sources
or in extenuation of official lax
ness.
1t is said that the Latin ma
tions are going down. If this is
true, it is due to their loose ideas
upon these subjects. In Latin
Europe you can license gambl-
ing, and run government grog
shops and recognize prostitution
by a system of registry and in
spection. But you can not do it
in this country, because the NOR
al sense of the people will not
endure it. No lottery can thrive
on American soil again. No
American city can use the
European system of licensing
gambling. No American city can
adopt the Partisan or Japanese
system of prostitution. We
think it even doubtful whether
the army canteen will ever be re-
stored. No official recognition
can be given given to criminal
vice. No official countenance
can be given to the theory that
gambling and illicit liquor sell
ing are necessary.-Indianapolis

A Snow Reminder.

The Logansport Pharos says
that on October 90, 1899, five
inches of heavy snow fell in that
locality.
The potatoes had not beer
dug and many of the fall apples
were still on the trees. The
night before it had frozen and
the farmers took advantage ot
the snow to save their apples
They shook off the frozen fruit
and let it lie in the snow. The
snow drew the frost from the
apples and the fruit was pre-
served.

AT THE CLUB.

Last Ladies' Day the TreadweIl Club was the scene of an enthusiastic bowl ing contest between a number of ladies from Douglas, Juneau and Treadwell. The highest scores were made by Mrs. Tubbs and Miss Wilson, the number of participants being greater than at any previous afternoon since the alleys were opened. The ladies evidently ap- reciate the opportunity thus afforded them to combine exercise and pleas ure.
 The highest score made so far at ten pins in this section of Alaska, was made last week on the Treadwell alleys by Ed Christoe, who scored 279 out of possible 300.
 Last Saturday evening, at a meeting called for the purpose in the Assembly Hall, of the Club, the men of the Tread we'll mine presented MT. T. s. Noonan, the retiring foreman with handsome gold watch and chain and Masonic

Changes in the Wheat Belt.

Vermont was once the granary of
New York City. 1t now produces only
one bushel of wheat to more than 200
in Minnesota, the banner State.
Rochester was once known as the
''flour CITY," Now it is called the ''hower
CITY," But New York still raises as
much wheat as Wisconsin. Maryland
produces more than either, Texas nearly
twice as much, and Pennsylvania three
times as much. Only eight States sur
pass Pennsylvania in wheat raising.
Kansas produces nearly as much
wheat as both the Dakotas, which are
much more often mentioned as wheat
States. Only tri1e more than half the
wheat crop grows west of the Missis-
sippi Illinois, Indiana and Ohio still
produce 100000 bushels, which is more
than any far western State, and over
one-eighth of the whole crop.
Little Delaware raises more wheat
than all New England. Virginia, West
Virginia, Kentucky. Tennessee and
North Carolina raise 35,O0O,000 bushels.

London special: One of the worst dis
asters in the history of the Midland Rail-
way occurred at CudswOrth, near Barns
ley, Eng, when three trains cOllided. kill
ing six persons and seriously iniuring
twenty-seven others. Among the latter is
the well known artist, Robert Brough. 1t
Is reported that the three trains caught fire
Immediately after the collision and that a
terrible scene followed. The injured weca
pinned under the burning cars and it was
only with the greatest difficulty that a
score we're saved from a horrible death in
the flames. The three trains which colli-
ded were the Scotch express from London,
an express bound for London and the mail
train for Leeds from Sheffield. The COLI
sion occurred during fog The Scotch
express bound north failed to see the Leeds
mail in front and ran into it. The shock
threw the mail off the track. Before sig
mails could be put out, the Scotch express
bound south crashed into the wreckage.
Two special trains, with doctors on board.
were promptly sent to the scene and the
wounded were attended to.

fore his admittance. He was not violent
then, but seemed to suffer loss of men,
ory.
For a month after he was admitted to
the ward only the usual attention was
paid to him. At that time, however, he
was found one morning sitting in chair
in the dining room. He did not move a
muscle and stared directly in front OF
him. An attendant could not rouse the
man, and he was carried to his cot. For
three weeks he remained in a state OF
catalepsy. At the end of that time he
arose from his bed one morning and
walked from the room. He was put to
work in the dining room, and although
he scarcely spoke, seemed to understand
everything that was said to him.
A week later the man again relapsed
into state of Elasticity, and has re.
mained so ever since. In the last two
years he has not moved an inch of his
own volition.

found it vacant The guests had been
seated promptly on the stroke of the

ried.
"Tell Mr.. Astor to come and con-

he said in his blandest tone to the foot

"Y-y-yes SIR" said the servant, with
one glance at the awe-inspiring mono
Gle. He must have delivered the mes
sage, for Mr.. Astor came.

A REGULAR HOrse-ShOy.

Horse" is the miners term for
body of worthless rock which some
times displaces ore and makes a rich
vein poor. The Chicago News has an
anecdote of the late Clarence King,
who was sent to inspect mine in the
Far West.
One Of the owners telegraphed King
to visit the mine Immediately and tele-
graph the results Of his examination,
especially in regard to an alarming ru-
NOR that the value of the vein had
been much impaired by finding in it
a very large "horse."
When King came out of the mine
after his inspection, he found another
telegram waiting for him from his i'm
patient friend, asking, is it true there
is horse in the mine" To which
he promptly replied:
1.-The mine is u perfect livery sta

Lost at the Last Place.

The absent-minded man and his urn-
brella continue to promote the gaiety
OF nations. They figure entertainingly
in an article in German magazine
on Prof. Max Won Pettenkofer, who
has been called the founder of scien-
tific hygiene.
The professors observation-disclosures
had no narrow or restricted range; 1t
covered everything; but umbrellas
seemed to be his speciality. He lost
fortune in umbrellas, for he seldom
came back with what he had taken
away.
Once. however, he made a trip as
far as England, and was very proud OF
having actually succeeded in bringing
back his umbrella to Germany. At
Augsburg he stopped on business, but
sent telegram saying:
AT 6 o'clock 1 return with my UNI
brella."
He did return at o'clock Tut as he
entered his honse at Munich he saw
to his dismay that he had no umbrella.
He had left it at the telegraph office.

rbou.ands starving in New York.

New York has now the largest proper
ton of unemployed of any great city in
the country, writes a New York philan-
thropist to Frank P. Sargent, commits
sioner general of immigration. There are
at least 100000 idle men in the city to-
day, or 40 per cent more than at this
time last year. Fifty thousand children
90 to school breakfastless, which means
idle fathers. So overwhelmed is the de-
partment of charities with tens of thou
sands of applications from men out of
work that it finds itself unable to cope
with the situation. In short, the metrop-
oils this winter is facing a problem with
regard to the unemployed such as has
never been known in past years. The
cause of this state of affairs is of less
moment now than the immediate prob
lem of how to deal with the multitudes

the hole to the Emperor. The excite
ment was intense among the witnesses
to the attempt and the news, when 1t
spread through the city, added to the
excitement and disorder attending the
great strike The Grand Duke Vladi-
mir, uncle of the Gar, ordered an in
quiry at once and personally interrog-
ated witnesses.
The Car appeared unmoved by the
attempt upon his life. He heard the
shot and saw the cOmmotion in the
crowd, then quietly inquired of his
companion if any damage had been
done. The troops opened lane
through the excited crowd and the EN-
peror entered the palace. Then, it is
said, his majesty went to the room
into which the bullet had crashed and
made a personal inspection.
The attempted assassination caused
much excitement, but the police were
prepared to handle the crowds, as it
