Employment, Famine, and Beer Houses

It is said there are fifty thousand persons out of employment in the city of New York.
The crops have failed in Russia, and a famine, more terrible than that of last winter, is expected.
The Roman Catholics have appropriated $600,000 for their church-extension projects in the south.
The latest innovation in New Orleans is a lager beer saloon for ladies, which is said to be well patronized.
If the beer houses in London were put together, it is said the row would be a mile long. What an ocean of frothy filth issues from that mile in a day.
