FOUR MEN AND A BEAR.
And They Were Not In Any Particu
lar Want of Live Bears Just Then.
From the Forest and Stream.
Several years ago I had been in the Adi
rondackß fishing, and stopped, as usual, on
my way out at Corey’s, at the head of
Upper Saranac lake. Corey came home
that night from Follansbee pond, where he
had been fishing for muskallonge, and re
ported them very plentiful, so we decided
to stay over another day and try them.
Me started next morning—George B
Durfee and his guide, Ed. FJagg, myself
and my guide, Robert W. Nichols. We
crossed Carry, down the Ampersand
creek and out into Raquette river for the
pond, in going down the river we came to
quite a wide place with a long narrow
island in It.
Just before reaching the island I saw
something swimming in the river, and
asked Rob if it was a dog. “No, it is a
bear We were in a pretty fix, with
neither gun, pistol, hatchet, nor ax in our
boats. “Well,’’ said I, “let’s have some
fun, anyhow.” So we changed places with
cur guides, we taking the paddles and the
guides standing up in the bows of the boats
each with an oar in bis hands. We paddled
down, one boat each side of that bear, and
then the fun began. First one, and then

MAS. YE GIVE 5 A TEA.
The Wife of Corea’s Representative at
Washington,
from the New York Tribune.
Last Tuesday interest centered at the
Coreen legation, where the wife of the
charge d’affaires, Mrs. Ye. held the first
of her “Tuesdays in February.” The
rapidly acquired knowledge of the En
glish language by this little lady is scarcely
more surprising than her graceful
adaptability to t-e customs and etiquette
of_ official life. When Mrs. Ye came to
Washington, just two years ago, she could
not speak a word of English. She now
speaks it with clear-cut enunciation and
without accent, and far more fluently than
her husband, whi had previously learned
something of English in Corea. ’ The cus
toms of her own land had made her life ab
solutely one of seclusion, and. therefore, to
her the ways of the new world were the
more strange and wonderful. But Mrs. Ye
is not only unusually attractive, but a re
markably progressive t'orean woman, and
she has cleverly taken to the ways of
American official families. Mrs. Ye had
asked to assist her a number of young
women, including Miss Riggs, who stood
beside her In the drawing-room. In the
tea-room Miss Moore, Miss Rose McDon
ald and Miss Ball presided. Mrs. Ye
wore a pale blue brocade gown, quaint in
the fashion of its long full skirt and short
waist. Her shining black hair, smooth as
satin, was done in a low knot held by a
gold arrow. The charge d'affaires was
in black silks, as be is still in court
mourning for the death of his king’s
mother. He went about among the visitors
with smiling affability and undisguised
pride in bis wife’s accomplishments as
hostess. The visitors were largely from
diplomatic and official circles.
Stanley Will Not Return.
From the New York Continent.
Rochester, Feb. s.— The Daily Conti
nent correspondent had a short interview
to-day with Henry M. Stanley.
“What will you do at the conclusion of
your American lecture tour?” was asked.
‘The first thing I will do, replied the ex
plorer, “will be to take my family borne to
England, aud then—well, I don’t know,
any more than you do, what will happen
then.’’
“My trips to Africa have not generally
been made on my own account. They have
usually been planned either by some news
paper or by some of my friends.
4 ‘lt has been through no ambition or de
sire of my own that I have scoured Africa.
Twice 1 was sent. The third time I was
asked to go by the King of the Belgians,
and the fourth time my friends asked me
to go.
“Having undertaken to explore the con
tinent, my desire was to do it thoroughly.
Whatever is worth doing at all is worth
doing well, you know.
“One thing is certain: I will not return
to Africa until lam sent back. 1 will not
go of my own volition.
“We are now on our way to California.
Our lecture tour will conclude April 8. I
will have a week to myself in New York,
and will then sail for London.
“Mrs. Stanley enjoys her trip through
this country very much. She has been
treated royally, and she has made numerous
friends everywhere.
“It has been quite a strain upon her to re
ceive so much attention, and it is gratifying
to me that she has been able to respond
amiably.”

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1891.
THE SUNDAY TRAFFIC.
SOCIAL CLUBS WITH BARS RE
TAILERS OF LIQUOhS.
The City Eaa Power to Close All Bar
rooms at lO or 12 o’clock Every
Night Selling of Cigars by Hotel-
Keepers to Their Guests on Sundays
Decided to be Legal.
The action of Mayor McDonough in try
ing to suppress the evils arising from keep
ing open tippling-houses on Sundays in this
city should commend itself to every te m
perata and right thinking citizen. Indeed,
it is doubtful whether any portion of our
citizens, outside of the “smart alecks,” the
toughs, the drunkards and the criminal
class, are opposed to the mova At any
rate, all who are so opposed are not law
abidiDg citizens, for the action of the mayor
is oommauded by the law, and the law is a
good one. The keepers of the respectable
saloons, almost without exception,
say they favor it; aud, be
ing good citizens, they will
no doubt observe it. Some have heretofore
■old liquor on Sundays because all the
other saloonkeepers did the same, and they
feared a loss of patronage on other days if
they failed to give to their customers what
the latter could obtain from other saloons
on Sundays. There may bo some persons,
however, who will, to use their own vernac
ular, “take in the town” on a Sunday from
a Saturday night’s supply of whisky, to
show their contempt for the law, but after
they themselves have been “taken in” once
or twice by our worthy mavor their ardor
for fun, or rather for tomfoolery and dev
iltry, will very soon cool and subside.
It is reported that those saloonkeepers
who may hereafter be arrested by the city
authorities for violating the Sunday ordi
nances will claim that the superior court of
this county has sole jurisdiction of their
cases under state laws. This is correct, so
far as the offense of selling liquors is con
cerned. It is iuoorrect so far as regards
the mere koeping open of doors and win
dows to tippling houses. Over the first
offense the city has no jurisdiction, be
cause the offense is governed by
the state law passed in the
year 1762, which prohibits any
person, except as to works of necessity or
oharity, from pursuing the busiuess of his
ordinary oalling on tue Lord’s day. Over
the latter offense—the keeping open of
dcors or windows to tippling-houses—just
as the keeping open of doors or windows to
any other place of business, the city can
impose a flue under iti existiug ordinances,
notwithstanding the state can prosecute the
offender for keeping open a tippling-house
on Sunday. And the doors to a tippling
house are kept open if an entrance can be
effected through auy aoor, front-side or
rear, to the building in which liquor is sold
or drank. It is evident, therefore,
that the flues will still be enforced under
the city ordinance, as woll as the machinery
of the state court put in motion, and hence
the best advice for lawyers aud others to
offer to tbe keepers of tippling houses is as
follows: Sell no liquor, and do not even
keep open your tippling houses, on Sundays;
for, as a former chief justice of our supreme
court, now deceased, said in a case carried
to that court from this oity, “ ‘The way of
tho transgressor is hard,’and sooner or later
light will be lot in upon his dark places, aud
exposure and punishment will follow.”
The benefits to be reaped from a proper
observance of the Habbath iu this regard
are many. Our city will be relieved of a
stigma of loug standing. Quiet, so appro
priate upon this day, will supplant the
noise and loathsome jess of the fuddled, red
eyed drunkard. Crime will be lessened.
Solf-respeot will be produced. Many wlvei
and children wilt be made happier. And
more bread will be put into the mouths of
poor men’s families, to whom it rightfully
belongs.
Tbe selling of liquor and the keeping
open of tippling house* on the Sabbath—that
is, from midnight Saturday to midnight
Sunday—is prohibited by our laws, and the
mayor, in enforcing those laws, shows that
ho intends to perform his duty, without fear
or favor, according to the promise in his
inaugural address.
While the good work bas been started, we
think this a most opportune time to call
public attention to several grave and im
portant omissions and defects in our liquor
ordinances, with the view of having the
same righted aud enforced.
First, there are certain social clubs in this
oity whioh, os is generally understood, sell
liquors to their members, and that, too,
without a license from the city for suoh
privilege. They are liable not only to pay
for a license, but to pay a fine for retailing
liquor without a license. And they are also
liable, if drinking is allowed in their rooms
on Sundays, to be prosecuted for keeping
opeu tippling-houseson that day. There is em
inent authority that even those social clubs
which merely maintain lockers wherein
their members keep private stocks of liquors
are liable to the city for a liquor license.
There is no doubt about the correctness of
the law where tbe members buy their liquors
of the club, or tbe clubs buy the liquors for
tbe members. This being true, the clubs and
the saloons should be put on tbe same footing
as retailers of liquors. No distinction should
be shown, by creating classes or allowing
privileges, between them. To do so will
surely invite criticism and discontent, and
weaken the efforts now being made to sup
press the illegal traffic in liquor to this city
on Sundays. Therefore, each of the clubs
should be compelled to take out a license to
retail liquors, and to keep their bars closed
on Sundays.
Secondly, in the Morning News of Mon
day, Feb. 2, occurs the following:
“The all-night barrooms, which opened
at 12 o’clock last night, did a lively busi
ness for awhile. There was a large con
tingent of the usual Sunday drinkers on the
streets at that hour, and they went at as if
they were determined to make up for the
lost opportunities of the day.’’
In these lines is depicted a shade of life
more applicable to persons who frequent
and own dives and other low, disreputable
resorts than to that class who are supposed
to own and patronize respectable bars. It
is a degrading picture, to say the least.
Moreover, to say what concerns all the
people of this city, the keeping open of bar
rooms from 12 o’clock Sunday night
until 12 o’clock the following Satur
day night, without intermission, is
a disgrace to the city, and one
that can and should be corrected at
once under the following powers contained
in the charter of this city: “The mayor
and aldermen of said city shall have power
and authority, from time to time, to make,
ordain and establish such by-laws, ordi
nances, rules and regulations as shall ap
pear to them requisite and necessary for the
security, welfare and convenience of the
said city and its inhabitants, and for pre
serving health, peace and good govern
ment within the limits of the same.”
And “The said mayor and aldermen shall
have the control and regulation of all shops,
taverns, stores and barrooms within the
corporate and jurisdictional limits of said
city, and the regulation of tavern lloenso,
and licenses to retail liquors within tho
same.” Under these powers, the city coun
cil, by ordinance, can ordain that all bars
in the city shall close at 10 o’clock every
night, notwithstanding that the licenses have
already been granted. This is not
an open legal question in this
state. A fortiori, all the bars, by ordi
nance, can be closed at 12 o’clock every
night. Buch a law is reasonable; it would
do incalculable [good, and it would, no
doubt, receive tbe support of an over
whelmning public sentiment, including the
better element among the saloon-keepers.
So much for liquors. Now, briefly, as to
cigars:
The order of the mayor prohibited the
sale of cigars on Sundays at all stores and
hotel stands. Since then,on last Wednesday
night the city council amended the ordinance
of 1854 so as to permit hotel keepers to sell
cigars to their guests. Now grant that the
6TAT*
OF
WBATHKR.
city cannot allow by ordinance what the
state legislature has prohibited, or that
said amendment bad not been made, the
question then arises as to whether the sell
ing of cigars from stands run
by hotel keepers as a part of
their establishment is in viola
tion of our state law, which reads as fol
lows; “Any tradesman, artificer, work
man or laborer, or other person whatever,
who shall pursue their business or work of
their ordinary callings upon the Lord’s
day (works of necessity or charity only ex
cepted), shall be guilty of a misdemeanor,
and, oa conviction, shall be punished as
prescribed in section 4,310 of this coda”
This question seems to be a rare one iu tbe
courts. It bas, however, been decided in
favor of the hotel keepers, under a law sim
ilar to ours, in a state whoso supreme
court is held in high repute. The decision
weut further, and decided that hotel keep
ers could also sell cigars on Sundays to
their regular week-day customers. But,
subsequently, the same court disapproved
tne latter portion of said decision, for the
reason that it would be turniug a hotel
cigar stand into a seventh-day cigar mo
nopoly; and, while not disputing the point
that a hotel keeper may legally sell cigars
on Sunday to bis guests, tbe court leaned to
a restriction in favor of traveling guests,
the reason being, no doubt, that )>crmanont
guests ought not to be favored as against
other residents of tbe city. These cases are
not binding as authority in this state, aud
therefore it is impossible to say how our
supreme court would decide tbe question.
There aro many things besides the selling
of cigars to guests by hotelkeepers on Sun
days, which the courts of last resort in
various states have exoepted from the gen
eral law as Deing works of necessity.
Among such may be mentioned
the following : Gathering fruits
and harvesting ripe grain, to
prevent their decay and loss; hauling fruits
to market, to save them from destruction;
keeping open barber-shops, express offices,
hotels, railroad ticket offices and telegraph
offices; manufacturing malt beer; physi
cians attending to their professional duties;
repairing railway tracks; and running gas
works, railway passenger trains and street
railway cars. No general rule can be laid
down in cases arising under this head, but
each case must be decided upon its own
particular facts.
Tbe city has no power to fine any doaler
for selling goods in the business of his or
dinary calling on Sunday, because the
offense is punishable by a state law, which
excludes further legislation by the city.
But, as in the case of tippling houses, the
city, under its ordinance of 1854, can fine
any dealer for keeping open any door or
window to his place of business on Hunday.
whether a sale of any prohibited artioie is
made or not.
While adviiing the performanro of every
duty at all times, we believe in being con
servative and temperate iu all things, aud in
showing fair play to ail persons. And we
further believe that wisdom, justice and
moderation, if accepted as a motto in deal
ing with the two important questions dis
cussed above, will avert the errors of fanat
icism and puritsnism oa tbe one hand, and
of breaches of tbe laws, accompanied by
bacchanals and uugodliuess, on the other
hand. Arnold.

UNLIKE TEA & COFFEE-GOOD FOR THE NERVES.
The claims of cocoa as a useful article of diet are steadily
