Marshal Wade Huston ia in
terested in the paf-sage of a Jaw
that will enable the city to better
control minors with rer?pect to their
spending their evenings about
town when they ought to be at
home attending to their school
studies. The curfew ordinance
provides that all children under 18
years ehall be eff Wie etreets after
the curfew rings at 7 o'clock, but
this measure is easily Bide stepped
by the boys going to the billiard
hulls and other places that are
deemed injurious to their develop
ment into useful citizens, and to
their school studies. The marshal
wants an ordinance making it un
lawful for minora to frequent these
amusement joints. This yiew of
the matter is also strongly favored
by the principals and teachers of
the high school and public schools,
but there is nothing certain about
these ideas being enacted in the
form of an ordinance.
