PROPHETS ENCOUNTER
WISDOM OF SOL ONION

Special to The Herald.
DENVER, June 15.-Judge Stapleton,
the police magistrate, is having all
kinds of trouble with fortune tellers.
Four Of them are now under bond to
appear before him Saturday, Monday
and Tuesday to tell why they are prac-
ticing their trade without license. and
whether they are competent to obtain
licenses.
IT intend to put out of business all
fortune tellers who cannot deliver the
goods in the way of actual forecasts of
what they claim to be able to prophesy
about" said the judge. He has detailed
his bailiff, e. G. Wigginton, the city hall
wag, whose first name Is E-lie-jaw, to
look after these fortune tellers' cases.
Wigginton had all four of the fortune
tellers before him. He spoke In most
solemn tones:
II find,' he declared, in very ju-
dicial way, that Lowell Estell, Mamie
Campbell, Amelia Jerome and Madame
Bordeaux are charged with telling for
tunes without license. Now, II they
tell fortunes they rcrst have licenses;
hut IL they are takers and can't tell for
times. but only make bluff at 1t,
they don't need any licenses. The law
applies to those who do tell fortunes.
So if the accused cannot come through
with a correct fortune telling stunt on
demand, they are not amenable to the
law. The only thing left to do will be to
run them out of business
Wigginton has therefore determined
to have each one prophesy how much
Judge Stapleton win fine the others; in
this way he will find out which ones,
Il any. of the accused know how to tell
fortunes. and will be in position either
OF recommend the giving of licenses to
them or to run them out OF businesss

SALOONS TO CURE
TIPPLERS HIS PLAN
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald
MACON, Mo-, June 15.-An inebriate
asylum, to be maintained exclusively
by the saloonkeepers of Missouri, is
the idea of the Rev. B. S. Mckenzie,
rector of St. James church here. The
plan Is for the liquor interests of the
state to maintain a first-class institu-
tion for the cure of habitual drunken
ness, the funds to be raised by volun-
tary contributions in mite boxes In
saloons, and gifts by saloons IN proper
ton to earnings
81 like the idea," said Arthur Kahn,
who runs a saloon here. "I don't know
of a proprietor who wants to take
money from a man who needs 1t, or
from habitual drunkard. You can
put me down for whatever is right on
this scheme"
1t is pointed out by the Rev. Mr..
Mckenzie, who intends to push the
plan throughout the state, that with
the saloon men actively interested in
preventing the natural consequences OF
excessive Indulgence, more men will be
reclaimed than by any other method.
The subjects for treatment will be Sc
lected by the vote of the saloon men of
the respective towns. who will make ar
rangements for transportation and ex-
penses to reach the infirmary. There
the expense of treatmetn will be de-
frayed out Of the general fund.
The SELDOM men favor the plan for
the reasons suggested by the originator
and for another reason of practical ad-
vantage to their calling. A well con-
Quoted inebriate asylum maintained ex-
clusively by the men operating saloons
will go long way toward ton1ng
down the sentiment which exists IN
some localities against saloons.
Since the proposition was submitted
to the saloon men the Rev. Mr. McKen-
zie has received visit from a clergy
man of his church, resident of New
York, who warmly approves the plan.
A number OF Macon church men ex-
nressed similar views.

NEW YORK, June 15.-A striking

1--WE humbly beg the zemstvo of

from strangers that in this or that
village a free kitchen has been opened.
We have nothing, nothing. Can 1t be
that we are doomed to death through

what shall we do? Where shall We

word home makes our hearts turn. But
there is nothing else to dove go home,
enter the dark house trying not to look
at the wife, or children, pretending not
to hear their eager Questioning. Where
