SUPPRESS THIS EVIL.
Too Many Small Boys Allowed to
Loiter Around Pool Halls.

Too Many Small Boys Allowed to
Loiter Around Pool Halls.
1t is time that the city authorities
took summary action against these
pool room managers who allow boys
to loaf around and play pool and bill
lizards. 1t is not exaggeration to say
that one-half the receipts of the pool
halls come from boys under Is years
OF age, and every evening these halls
are crowded with youths who should
be at home in bed. 1t is contrary to
law to allow a minor to loiter in
pool hall or play the game, and the
law should be enforced.
These pool halls are training and
recruiting grounds for trampdom and
the criminal courts, and the evil is
growing to alarming proportions in
this city. The Wageworker is going
to begin a crusade on it's own ac-
count pretty soon, and when it be-
gins there is going to be long cen
sus not only of proprfetors who allow
minors to play, but of minors whose
parents evidently are unaware of the
sporty" inclinations of their adde's
cent offspring. The police authorities
should give the pool halls their i'm
mediate attention.

ECL|PSED
BY CLOUDS

The eclipse OF the moon last night was,
spectacularly speaking, a disappointment.
The clouds were too much in evidence,
particularly al the height OF the eclipse.
The shadow began to cross the moon at
SOS and al 9:l9 the dmness was very
apparent. the black shadow OF the earth
making it's effect plainly visible.
At 9.45 the clouds thickened and at 10:40
they had ecUpsed the eclipse, so TO speak.
Al ll:43 the moon was again visible and
at i.li a. m. the eclipse was over.
The phenomenon is explained by Prof.
Winslow Upton as follows:
"Eclpses OF the sun and moon occur
at intervals OF about six months. and as
the same conditions are necessary for the
one as the other, namely, that the three
bodies, sun earth and moon, shall be
nearly in line. that an eclipse OF the moon
Is preceded or followed by an eclipse of
the sun
Sometimes It IS both preceded and fol-
lowed. at an interval Of two weeks When
the three bodies are nearly in line at
the time Of full moon there will be
total eclipse OF the moon. and two weeks
or later there is sure 10 be a
partial eclipse Of the sun.
when. as on the 30th. the three bodies
are nearly i'm line al the time Of new moon
there will be a central eclipse OF the sun,
and frequently a partial eclipse OF the
moon will precede or follow.
THE order this month Is a partial
eclipse OF the moon at full moon on the
l4th and a total eclipse OF the sun at new
moon on the Both"
