The Temperance Saloon. The saloon is kept by Mr. Greenwood is owned by Captain Pray and leased to Greenwood. It is claimed to be run on a strictly temperance basis, and that only such drinks as mild mead, hardness soda water and root beer are dispensed. The Glenbrookers say however, that private bottles containing the most pronounced brand of Jersey lightning can be had on demand. Yerington, Bliss and Company have given orders to their men not to frequent the saloon, that it gives them such a lively effect that an ordinary Saturday night’s drunk lasts till Wednesday.
