not  be  well  for  parents  to  inquire  into 
this  matter,  and  ascertain  if  it  is  quite  the  cor- 
rect thing  to  permit  an  establishment  of  this 
kind  to  flourish  less  than  fifty  yards  from  the 
public  school,  which  is  a source  of  pride  to 
every  resident  of  the  mountain  metropolis?

Sing  Lee’s  hop  joint  was  pulled  by  Officers 
Watts  and  Hubber  last  Tuesday  night.  They 
arrested  the  Messrs.  Sing  Lee,  Fuller  and  Mc- 
Lain, and  four  women.  The  defense  wisely  con- 
cluded that  in  connection,  with  a plea  of  guilty, 
it  was  necessary  to  have  a first  class  attorney, 
and  accordingly  the  learned  barrister,  the  Hon. 
Barney  Cox  was  engaged,  and  while  apologizing 
that  he  had  not  time  to  prepare  his  papers  in 
the  case,  his  pleadings  were  eloquent,  terse,  and 
to  the  point,  so  much  so  indeed,  that  Justice 
Barton  fined  Mr.  Sing  Lee  $25  and  costs.  The 
prevailing  sentiment  now  is  drive  the  hop  joint 
from  the  immediate  vicinity  of  the  school  house 
and  then  out  of  town.

A car  of  Kirk’s  soap  at  bottom  prices,  at 
Cosgrove’s.  It  was  received  on  the  new  rate, 
and  will  be  sold  cheap.  No  need  longer  to  go 
dirty.
