How Little Progress Made by the Temper- ance Advotates in East- ern Cities, Gothamite Preachers Found Who Are Not Total Abstainers. CHICAGO. The dodge of the saloon-keepers to advertiso their places {ree of cost, by informing the newe- papers that notices had been sont to them by tho ladics of the the Tompersace Union, has been previonsly mentioned in Tms TmmuNe. Bat still some of. tho vonderg of lager wers bound to be advertised, aud that thoy have ruc- ceeded admirably well will be seen by the fol- lowing facts : Friday ovening Mr. Ferdinand Balow, who keeps saloon on the corner of 3ladison and Jefferson streets, came to T TRiBuxg offico, exbibiting a posral-card which ho had recoived from tho Iladies of the Temperance Union, informing - him that s _prayer- mestiog would bo held st his place st 2 o'clock inthe afterncon. Somo 0 similar Dotices baving been receivod by as many saloon— keepers, no farther notice was takenof this mat- ter. A reporter of Tz TRIDUNE, however, Lap- pened to pass that place in the afternoon, and Doticed & neatly printed card over the door in- forming the public that a prayer-meeting would be held there at 2 o'clock without -fail. "It was just about 2, and the raporter dropped in to seo Whether thiere might not something extraordi- Dary bo gotng on, a8 no other saloon-keeper had et~ gone to the expense of baving such Figns printed. The reporter ordered a glass of lager, and then took a survey of P THE SUBROUNDINOS. The ealoon is in the basement, andis ome of the largest in tho city. Behind the counter stood Mr. Malow and his two bar-keopers, hav- ing donned snow-whito aprons for the occasion, eagerly awaiting events. On tho lunch-counser, which is_right under the sidewalk, several well- dressed men, who had the sppearanco of belong- ing-to the sporting fraternity, were standing discusging the situation. A numl of men were sitting on the tables, some drikking beer, some munching ssussge, eop, None of theso men luokam’%l;l had any - other occapation than,fo il in & sa- loon, and wait for a treat, and regale them- eelves with leberwurst and- echwarzbrod, which is glweys standing, on the lunche table. The time passed on, and at. half-past 2 there was but little chango in tho situation, and the prayer bad not yet commenced, nor had the 1adies of the Temperance Union made their ap- pearance. The reporter not liking the company in the saloon went up-atairs and awaited events on the sidewalk. o THEY COME. At about balf-past § the cry arose, ** Hera they come.” And sure enough there.came tlree clderly women, followed by an immenge crowd of- .hooting 'men snd boys. They de- gcended - tho steps and were welcomed by the proprietor ag the door, and conducted to a raised platform at the rear end of the room, where usnally low_minstrel and variety exhibi- tions are given. The crowd gathered in such ,aumbers that every available inch of space was occupied by eagzer_curiosity-seekers. At firat there was a perfect Bedlam of cries, queries, and cat-calls, and not until the proprietor hadshown his determination to preserve order by giving the * grand bounce ” to a few of tho most ob-" streperons—one of them a ealoon-keeper, by tho | way—was the assemblage sufficiently sabdued to render the orison of the * godly” woman dis- tinguishable. -One- of -the women stepped for- ward and propounded ihe conundrums: “Is thiga hell ? Will the devilslisten tons?” "0t course it is,” cried several of the crowi 4nd thoy listened. & THE BEZRVICES. “The good women then produced their hymn~ books and eelected a hymu with a familiar air, and began to- eing, the crowd joining them 8o heartily that the mingled voices reverberated throngh every room in the Gault House, im- pressing its inmates with tho- idoa that their abodo had been invaded by s camp-meeting or by & regiment of Innatics, the latter most prob- ably. After they got -through singing,.ono of the women gent-np .o fervent petiticp Lo the Throne_of Grace, imploring God_to. convert the wicked and misguided Malow and his white-aproned . arsistant. ‘‘Amen,” cried tho latter two individaals, and * Amen,” shout- edthe wholo czowd. Then foilowed .another h{mn and another prayer for half an hour, un- til each of. the women "had uttered her supplica- tion for the conversion of the miserablo sinners. in the saloon, the reporters not excluded. “Their fervent prayers, however, were lost to theé pmg)flswr and bis barkeepers, for not & word. could. they hear amid. the gingling of beer- glasees, . the crowd having kept them as busy as bees through tho matince; dispensing the amber fuid. - A #me xexT STIOP. 3 When the lidies had concluded their dévotions the “boys ™ in the saloon, scveral of whom are excellont singers and perform nighily inthe, same place, suggested that they stay and liston . to an entertainment from them., No obfection being made by them, & varioty exhibition of the lowest kind was given, and nono enjoyod * the fun ” more than the *“Iadiss of the Temperanco Union."” Aftor they had sufficiently enjoyed thomselves and politely refused several invitations to drink, thay retired in good order aud went west on Madiscn street, followed by o motloy crowd of _nowsboys. idlers, and sensation-gopkers, suppos- ing that thoy would invade same other **hell.” s : ON THE BTEEET. - The . crowd . momentarily incre and pressed forward upon the -heels of the £ Apostles of ~“Temperance,” who by * this time. wers rather snnoyed - -by the sensation they created and the loud comments, most of them not very complimentary, mada by therr followers. Arrived atthe Umon Street station one of the women, who gave her name as Sister Tomlinson, of somo -place ‘on " Hubbard street, the number of which she did not remem- ber, appealed to the police for protection, but . they declined to interfere on the ground that the crowd had as machright to the sidewalk 28 thoy (the praying sistera), and as long aa no disorder- I ¢t was -committed no interference could bo expected. - They took the law. into their own. | bands and klapped some of the newsboys who i pressed oo closely..

It pays mach botter than the minstrel shows in xb;qt:vening." _ The reporter now left the place, and on resch- ing the sidowalk ho met Mr. ;éhwmz, of the firm of Schwarz & Brietung, who keeps & saloon on ‘fli‘\? vizmlcxx;n!sflc];rk and Madison, * Wel 3 warz,” eaid the reporter, * what do you think of this pmyux-mecun‘; B3 “] think it is an ontrage on decency,” replied Mr. Schwarz. “ Why, this Mr. Malow bas en- gaged these women to pray for him. No re- spectablo saloon-keeper would lower himself to commit such an outrage as this. I received a postal card to-day, and I threw 1t in tho fire im- jediatcly. T am'far above sach dirty tricks, and every decent szloon-keoper should be.” Peter Carpenter, of Kinzio stroet, and several others, also had women hired to pray in their £aloons, but whether the performances came off or not cannot bo told, as the reporter wns una- ble to find timo to visit all tho places. = As an advertising_dodge; this certainly sur- passes anything that bas recently been at- tempted in Chicago, and will doubtless have the effect of checking any real efforts by tho ladies toreform tho saloons by prayer. Too much ridicule has been cast on the movoment by tho sacrilegious device of this West Sids saloon- kecper, and no !frequenter of a drinking-placo would be ablo to decide whether the prayers he leard wero genuine or hired for the occasion, and, consequently, whether he ough: to be moved +by them; or trest themas s rather blasphemous joke. - — ILLINOIS.
