DECISION AFFIRMED.-As our readers
will recollect just after the passage Of an
act of the Legislature of the winter OF
1901, transferring the jurisdiction in
cases for selling liquor on Sunday in
this city, from the Circuit to the Mum.
cipal Court of Wheeling, Justice John
ston rendered decision against Peter
Hausenauer and one against George
w. Eckhart, sending them before the
Circuit Court for trial. The Circuit
Court held that it had original jurisdic-
ton in such causes and that they must
be tried before it and not before the Mu-
nicipal Court. From this decision both
Eckhart and Hausenauer appealed,
and on yesterday the Supreme Court OF
Appeals decided that the views held by
Justice johnson and by Judge Melvin
were correct, and affirmed the decision
of the Circuit Court. Judge Maxwell,
in delivering the opinion, held that, al
though the Legislature might have con-
ferred jurisdiction in these "liquor
cases." as they are called, on the Mu-
nicipal Court of the city of Wheeling,
it could not destroy the original juris-
diction OF the Circuit Court and had not
done 80. So far then as the act inter-
ferred with the Jurisdiction Of the Cir
cult Court, it was invalid and in viola
ton of the sixth section of Article sixth
of the Constitution. There being
nothing, therefore, in the act to interfere
with the jurisdiction Of the Circuit
Court" concludes Judge Maxwell, Ito
hear and determine the cause, the
judgment complained OF will have to be
affirmed, with damages and costs"

ANOTHER RAID on TIE Hoes We

ANOTHER RAID ON TIE Hoes we
mentioned 8 few days ago that heavy
raid had been made on the hogs of the
Seventh ward by the police. Yester-
day they made a descent upon the
swine population Of the First ward
and gathered in about forty. 1t wasn't
done without q skirnish, though. AS
they drove them to the pound, there
was the greatest squealing and grunting
among the hogs and the most outra-
geous swearing at and abuse OF the
officers by the hog owners. But police
men don't mind being sworn at or
called names. In fact, we think some
of them rather,like it. They took all
the hogs to the pound, however, and
will sell all not before redeemed, at 2
o'clock this afternoon. The hogs IN
the other wards are in state OF fever
;sh anxiety now. They don't know
whether to run off to the country or
walk up and be mpounded without
trouble.

La BELLE GLASS WoRKs.-A day or
two ago we stated on what we deemed
good authority that the La Belle Glass
Company intended removing their glass
works from the present location, on the
corner of First and German streets, to
Bellaire. The statement was all right
except that instead Of at Bellaire the
new works are to be built at Kirkwood
and ground was broke for the new fac
tory, at Kirkwood, yesterday. 1t is
intended to greatly increase the capacity
of the works. 1t is expected that the
new buildings will be completed in
ninety days. The want Of coal and Of
facilities for shipping the glassware
manufactured is the cause Of the re-
moval.
