Justice Scott. writing the decision noted
that tho trial Judge had accepted the

OF establishing acts OF disorder 80 general
az to demand revocation OF the license.
He remarked that the place was under
the management OF an -ex-prixefighter
and said that certain women in the place
conducted themselves in fhe frankest
and most disgusting NGpner."
Justice Scott said ~ in the face OF
such evidence it was OF little moment that
certain apparently respectable persons
visited the place or that certain police
men had never happened to see anything
disorderly and that the manager and his
employ ees said they had never observed
any indelicate or improper actions. II
the latter did not see it was because they
would not.

the place was no worse than many other

With Porter In North Missouri.

DR.. Joseph A. Mudd, who is a native
Missourian, but of prominent Maryland
family, and now lives at Hyattsville, Md,
has given an interesting chapter of the war
in his book on "Porter's Regiment" as it
was known to the older settlers of Missouri.
1t is a narrative of the operations of Col.
Joseph Chrisman Porter in Northern Mis-
souri, from the day he began recruiting
until his mortal wound ia battle, told by q
member of his regiment. In many of these
stirring scenes DR.. Mudd was participant
Where he did not have q part, the account
is taken from personal observations of SUR
vivors on both sides, with reports of officers
and other official documents. There are
many interesting personal experiences very
much out of the ordinary in his secret SER
vice for the Confederacy when he was q
spy in Washington and fugitive between
the two armies in Virginia and Maryland.
That it is a readable book is attested by
Champ Clark, who says he read it from
"eend to eend," and found every page in
teresting. Suffice it to say that DR.. Mudd's
work is well done.
The book contains 452 pages, illustrated
with portraits, and bound in buckram.

Hog. Must Be Kept off the Levees.

To the Property Holders of Bossier Levee District.
Gentlemen: wish to call the attention
of the property holders in the Bossier Levee
District to the report which was recently
made to the Bossier Levee Board by Maj
F. M. Kerr, Chief Engineer OF the State
Board of Engineers.
On recent inspection of the levee sys-
tenn Maj. Kerr found that in many cases
people were pasturing hogs on the levees.
This is not only liable to cause great dam
age but is prohibitive by law, and feel
confident that nothing more is necessary
than to call the property holders attention
to the fact of such abuse in order to secure
its correction.
Our levee system has been built at a
great expense, and in order to be main
tanned, we are subjected each year to heavy
taxes and all of this expenditure money will
be of no benefit to US unless our levees are
kept in good condition, so that we may at
all times be prepared for high water.
In behalf of the Board of Commissioners
of the Bossier Levee District appeal to
every man who is living on the river front
to take his hogs off the levee if he has been
using it for hog pasture, and so arrange
such cross fences as he may have on the
levee as will permit inspectors to drive
along the crown. Yours truly,
H. N. CARLTON,
President, Bossier Levee Board.
