SALOON BOXES
MUST Be OPEN

SEATTLE, Aug. 14.-Mayor Bal
linger has determined that the saloon
box ordinance must be enforced If
it is necessary to raid every saloon
in the city to make the proprietors
conform to the law. The mayor has
made the following statement:
"'rhe saloons will be given ample
time to make the changes required
by the ordinance and then if the order
is not obeyed the matter will be
taken into the municipal court Time
and again the saloons have been in
formed through the police department
that the lax methods employed must
be stopped. Conditions have been
allowed to go on in this manner
from time to time, but a halt has
been called, and in the future all
saloon proprietors who refuse to con-
form to the instructions will be ar
rested.
There is nothing that fosters vice
like concealment, and in the future.
during the present administration,
screens and doors that have hidden
young girls in saloon boxes must re-
main down."

Ming OSCAR
QUITS THRONE

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Aug. IA
King Oscar left here today for Mars
trand, on a small Swedish island in
the kattegat, to seek quiet and rest
and give his broken down system a
chance to recuperate. This is the sec
ond time that the king. compelled by
his ill health, has turned over the
reins of government to his son, Crown
Prince Gustave, whom he appointed
regent during his absence. 1t is be-
lieved in well informed circles that
this temporary retirement of the king
is merely the prelude for his perma-
nent retirement in favor of his eldest
son.

|0LD WOMAN STEALS FEW Wild
FLOWERS FOR HER SONS CRAVE

HARTFORD, Conn.,, Aug. IA
Widow Bridget Duffy's only son was
drowned the other day. She, aged
and penniless, buried him in Old
North cemetery. She went to his I'M
marked grave Sunday to pray not to
be kept from him long. The widow
gathered a few wild flowers, coarse
blossoms, that grew in a corner of the
cemetery, seldom visited, and tender
ly placed them on the mound.
1t is against the strict rules of the
cemetery to pluck anything that
grows there. So the superintendent
had Mrs. Duffy arrested, and she pass
ed last night in cell.
