Its last exposure is a base­ ment pool-room for boys on the West?* side, where from 100 to 200 boys of all syei, from 10 to 21 years, assemble Jitght after night, and ou Sundays, and play for ginger pop and cfder. Juvenilo thieves, bootblacks and the tens of respectable parents are all club- ~btd together here,~giving and taking :1etsons iu eyery sort of viciousness.
