organizations OF the dlHerent social
classes and business men have be-
come of great Importance in the new
movement. The first of these socie-
ties was the British Medical Tenn
perance Association" founded by the
English physicians in 1876 Special
organizations for clergymen, teachers,
railroad men and workmen have been
established, and are striving with in
creasing success to form international
associations. Unfortunately the So
cial Democrats have in many in
stances used the movement as
means for carrying on their own agi-
tation, and in this way have gained
the sympathy of many who would
otherwise have held aloof from them.
This statement, however, has little
application to Germany. Women take
an increasingly great part in the
work OF temperance. The "Woman's
Christian Temperance Union,' estab-
lished in the United States in 1873,
became worldwide association in
1888, and then affiliated many ma
tional associations in Europe. Owing
to these energetic labors the number
of total abstainers has increased
greatly in most countries; in some
they form from 5 to IL per cent of
the entire population, as: United
Kingdom, about 100000 Gncluding
100000 children; Sweden, 100000;
Norway, 100000 including $4,000
children); Denmark, 10000; Ger
many, over 100000 Gncluding $4,000
children; Switzerland, $4,000 Tin
Guiding $4,000 children; Finland and
Holland, each 10000, and Iceland,
5000. The total number in Europe
may be safely estimated at over
100000.

With one exception these interna-
tional organizations are total absti-
nence societies. The largest organi-
zation is still that of the 'Tnde-

which has Is grand lodges in Europe;
OF these 6 are in Great Britain, in
Germany, 1 each in Ireland, Scotland,
Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Holland,
Belgium, Switzerland, Roumania and
Hungary. There are also some dis
trict lodges in France and Russia.
The total number of lodges on the
Continent is 1861 with 1858 mem
bers and 1856 lodges for the young
with 123,634 members. In Great
Britain there are 1926 lodges with

Our next visit was to the mayors
office. Marvel knew all the ropes.
There was no indecision or waste of
time in his procedure. There was no
reluctancy on the part of the mayors
secretary in giving him access to all
the records of the Office.
l was close enough to the desk Of
the secretary to catch what was said.
Edward Briggs had been sent to the
house of correction on the day he ap-
peared in court. On the one ensuing,
he was pardoned out on the recommen-
dation of Alderman Miles Ryner. All,
here it was, observed the clerk-letter
