The Advektiskr gleans some inter esting points from a hasty glance at the criminal docket of the Mayor's Court. From July 1st of this year to October ."Id there were neither bars nor a dis pensary in Laurons. The docket shows convictions as follows: Drunk and disorderly, 3; drunk, 0; disorderly conduct, hi; lighting 11. Offences directly attributable to whis key were therefore only 3. For tho sarno period in 1892: (bars open.) Drunk and disorderly, 15: drunk 3; disorderly conduct, 0; light ing, l(>: gambling, 4. Number of of fences directly attributable to intem perance, 18. From Oct. 3. 1893, to Nov. 11, during which period the dispensary has been open: Drunk and disorderly, 7: drunk, 4; disorderly, (>, also f> who were dis charged because first offence: lighting, 1: gambling, 7: selling whiskey with out license, I. Offences directly at tributable to whiskey, 12. For the same period last year, (bars open): Drunk and disorderly, 7: drunk, ?1: disorderly conduct, 4| gambling, II; lighting, 7. Offences directly attribu table to whiskey, 11. . It appears from these figures that there was a great decrease in drunken ness during the timo that tho town was dry. A comparison of dispensary days with bar room times, for this town, shows not the slightest improvement. BIjUFJ RIBBONS and prizes. haurens Victors at tho Grjat State Pair.
