JUDGE SMELL FAvORs THE
FLAG,

And the Commissioners Feel Re-
lioved of a Great Responsibility.
Perry Carson was charged in the police
court yesterday with obstructing the
streets with 70 flag and sign" A number
of local politicians and business men were
present at the trial and watched the
proceedings closely. Mr.. James Camp
bell, of the commissioners office, testified
to the permit being refused by the COM
missioners, and Policeman Gautz and Mr..
II. u. Goodwin testified to seeing tho flag.
Prosecuting Attorney Forest stated in
reply to question of Judge Smell that
the proceedings wero being had under
section of the act Of Jan. IL, 1856, relat-
ing to health, &c.
Mossrs. G. NJ. Smith and d. o. Cahill,
the counsel for the defense, and Attorney
Riddle, then argued the case at some
length, quoted several authorities and
submitted the case.
Judge Smell, in rendering his decision,
stated that there was no ordinance speoi-
flying flags as an obstruction" Of the
streets, and that there was no occasion in
the first place for applying for permit
for putting up tho flag. -
After careful consideration Of tho
matter" concluded the court, Il fail to
see any foundation for the prosecution Of
this case under the law, and therefore
discharge tho defendant"
Commissioner Edmonds said that he
was glad that tho responsibility had been
taken from the commissioners. And

other matters, including the management
of government business and criminal
matters out of our hands. can 20 away

Judge Smell Lays Down Some Law.
The second case against William Brai.
nard, Thomas Berry, and Richard Har-
ris, of tho Americas club, for keeping =
gaming house, was called in the police
court yesterday After hearing the testi-
inony Judge Smell was about to send the
case to the grand jury when Mr.. WILL
Jams, tho prisoners counsel, asked to be
heard on the law points of the case, and
it was set for next Tuesday, for the plea
of formerly acquitted to be discussed.
In deciding this case on its merits
Judge Smell entered ut some length upon
the construction of the gambling law. The
very title of tho act of congress showed it
to be to prevent gambling in the district.
An association could not, no held, do what
an individual could not and in this case
irregular nightly assembly for this purpose
took place, and he should hold each
member brought before HIM liable to the
law. Acitizen could invite friends to his
house, and if they chose to gamble when
there tho law could not interfere, but if
this took place every night then an
otIense was committed. The judge said
these were his views, and he should act
upon them until he heard from higher
court.

ONO OF the Worry OIde.t.

The Hibcrnian Benevolent society, No.
], which has been dissolved and the char
ter surrendered, was one Of the Oldest
Irish societies In the district. having been
organized in 1916. 1t was tho first that
ever appeared on parade in distinctive
uniform, and had 105 members on itf
rolls. Its assets, amounting to.over $500,
were divided pro rata among tho mem
bers. The flags and banners were voted
to Mr.. J. II. Flanagan, the oldest member
OF the society, and the records and books
to the secretary, Mr.. j. II. O'Brien, and
other effects to various members. There
was no dissension in the society, but II
was thought it had outlived its usefulness
as tho chief purpose for which 1t was
established is now served by insurance
companies and endowment associations.
