A sor rowful lookiug picture he is too. He would remind you of a July day, just after 3 hall storm or a Milwaukee saloou keeper who had just failed to get a license. His favorite game is being routed, the enemy 3 close to his heels, and he is a sad looking ■picture of "Love's labor lost." 1 allude to i>ur fablers. All dudes are not gamblers, iioa't misunderstand me, but nearly all •_;a:ub.ers are dudes. They go to the ex ireui«? in dress, and even surpass the irre pressible hotel clerk with his straw-colored headlight with a tlaw in it. To see the I or fellows in jnjlice con it « nnrjicu nnn i nfrnnrj t! es ^ecai inconsistent because nine-tenths i (t thetu could buy and sell those who thus i rbarse theni. When the gambler is asked r hat means of livelihood he has he dis- | plays tut- inimitable roll, which surely shows the requisite "visible means. ' Our workers in the cause of religion have bnt t>ne way to catch the gambler, and that is to ' snail" hint at work. Speaking of the jumbling fraternity reminds me of an in- 1 staace that is wow going the rounds, the vibject matter of which is about this style: Itadm Dn|HHt. There is a den ' at the corner of Four teenth street and Second avenue where the '•qneer" is shoved in all its pristine glory, and it is just in the rear of the Presbyte' | r an church, and the inhabitant* of "pat my blue stack on the ace ' will hare con cluded by this time that the venerable and benevolent looking eld gentleman, clad in ministerial black and with a white necktie, Whom they so kindly introduced to their haunts for the purpose of selling him a Valuable edition of Tennyson's poems, i- a greater "sharp" than the smartest member pf their own delectable fraternity.

The war that is being waged on the Celestials of this city is only the commence ment of what promises to'be quite a lively skirmish. The heathen John, not satisfied with ruining his own race reaches out tor the Christain victim to farther his devil ish devices. The sickening details that have been published are not even one halt of the truth. It is almost too horrible to put in print, but the number of young women who have been caught in the meshes of the Chinese opium dens and houses of ill-repute is enormous. The heathen at tirst was content with asso- iat ing with the Hcurlet sutrrhuod, but tiring of these total wrecks of hu manity he baits his hook and tishes in our better families with alarming success. He has progressed. The editor of the Chinese newspaper declares the matter exaggerated, but your correspondent visited the Molt street opium joints a day or two ago, and from the conclusions arrived at, the half has not been told. Little girls, young wo men, married women and all seemed to have hem snared in the cute John s trap. First a little opium, than a little more, and soon down the uark corridors of crime until nothing save eternal disgrace is stamped on them. 'I lie Cigarette (alrt*. The question of whether the girl swill hold out for their rights is one that commands a great deal of attention now, and the chances are the girls pluck will be triumph ant in the near future. My iriend Freund is, like all men a little tender-hearted, but the words he uttered in favor of the girls sre worth perusal: Why should that cigarette jrirl not have her *hare oi life's beautyShe is a factor in the economy of the State. If men are Knit Knoush to Hmokel Ignrelte* and tind a solace and a charm in doing -o, somebody has to make them, and that somehodv becomes a link iu the economic chain, that link has as much aright to get a share of the enjoyment of life as W. H. Vanderbilt, who noes to enjoy himself in Kuroj-e after having pocketed millions. Can that cigarette girl enjoy her life on the money tliat she earn*? She niav, by sheer animal jpirits and undaunted vitali ty but positive, practical enioymeut is hard to begot out of $5 per week. That sum is more no in New York than would be in England, and out of it 1 Mil U»> «.FI H im-u 10 i.ir un, a chair to sit on, a plate to eat oil". a gown to cover you. and a scant meal to keep body anil soul together, but as to say that you can enjoy yourself on it. it is rather'im probaMe. It is just that $1 or more, that makes all the difference and brightens up everything: ami if the cigarette-smok r while enjoying himself, cannot ailor t a few centa more for the girl who makes these luxuries, and who also wants t>> enjoy her self. then cigarette making is an economic fallacy and should be Wtp«l Oot of the l.xbor Market, No trade or occui>ation out of which man or woman, besides living cannot ^et some enjoyment, has a right to exist; it creates paupers, drunkards, criminals and idiots. AI«*n and women who do not enjoy them selves rationally will do so irrationally, for life is there to be enjoyed equally by all. in whichever way it may be. The cigarette girls of New York are just now preaching the tinest sermon that can be heard, and thfcre will no pulpit to mor row give out a nobler text than theirs, "Your Father in Heaven cares for all. even for the sparrows ami the cigarette girls." A Hnr«t Worker will soon be lost from the busy throng in Wall street. I speak of Jay Could.
