THE sALooN-kEEPERs VICTIMS.


The other day suit for $4,000
damages was brought in this city
against saloon-keeper in behalf OF
three children. The mother OF those
children had haunted that saloon
keepers resort, drinking herself drunk
every evening and sleeping often on
the floor. The father OF the children
had deserted his family because OF
the mothers habits, which was not to
his credit, and made thing SO much
the worse for the children.
The mother Is now In a reforma-
! tory and the. children are In the care
of the juvenile court. Saloon-keepers
have been held responsible for the
ruin OF families under similar circum-
stances before, and it may be that
case can be ReaAa against this one.
Certainly the liquor seller knew what
was to be the fate of the children
when he took all the money the
mother could gather every day for
her drink, and 1t would be only JUS
tice If their future support could be
charge up against him.
