A Case Decided la Iowa on Line with ths
| Decision nf tho United States Court In
Kansas--The wilson Act riot Retro
active.
CEDAR RAPIDS. Iowa, Oct 10 --0n
September 20 three liquor cases were
submitted to Judge John 4. Stoneman,
OF the Superior Court, Of this city The
cases were as follows: In June the
Anheuser-Buscb Brewing Association,
OF St Louis opened an original pack-
age establishment at Marion, and APP
pointed Joseph Coenen their agent
The above firm shipped beer in quart
bottles, securely corked, seal and separ-
ately labeled, by railroad to thoir gem
eral agent, Williams, OF this city,
packed in boxes and barrels, which
boxes and barrels we're opened
and a portion OF said bottles
forwarded to Agent Coenen, at
Marion, in the same condition as when
| shipped from st Louis On the receipt
OF such bottles OF beer Coenen sold the
same, without uncorking or unsealing,
to customers who desired to purchase
the same, either by single bottle or In
other quantities Cocnen engaged in
no other business than the sale as afore-
said, and kept no other intoxicating
liquors on said premises. IL II. Abrams
pastor of the Christian Church at
Marion, about this time began proceed
ings against Coenen for violating the
Prohibitory law, and also Instituted
search proceedings with the intention
OF seizing and destroying the liquor,
1. t,,l,. . fI.fl
The plaintiff in this case began pro-
ceedings to enjon Abrams against pro-
ceeding further in his seizures and also
commenced action in replevin to recoy-
er the beer from the officers holding the
writ seizures Abrams demurred TO this
petition in reployln, alleging that under
the State laws a writ in repeyin would
not lie to recover beer in the state OF
Iowa. The court held that an action in
unconstitutional statute, and quotes the
case of Cooley VS.. Davis, "a Iowa. 1928 in
which Justice Day delivered the opinion
and clearly stated the settled law on
this question.
This opinion has been followed and
approved by tho Supreme Court and has
never been questioned. In regard to
the injunction proceedings instituted
by the plaintiff, the court held that the
act OF Congress known as the Wilson
bill, approved August $, 1890, was not
retroactive in its operation and does
not aim in terms to rehabilitate any
statute that had been previously de-
cared unconstitutional and void by
tho United States Supreme Court,
and the Supreme Court in its
case 'of toisy against . lIsrG~n,
had only recently held it to be
unconstitutional 1t is simply permis-
siye to the several States in the future
to legislato in the exercise Of State po-
lice powers on subject matter which,
prior TO the act of Congress tho States
had been debarred by the Constitution
OF the United States from dealing with.
He therefore granted a perpetual in
junction to restrain Abrams from insti-
tuting proceedings or to interfere with
the business OF the plaintiff in selling
liquors n original packages.

\ Brave Inglneer Saves the Passengers on
Ills Train by Prompt Decision aud Heroic
Action
ERIE, Pa, Oct 20 On the Lake Shore
& Michigan Southern railroad yesterday
near Silver creek, a detached section Of
an east bound freight train had been
run into by another section and a por-
tion Of the debris was thrown over on
the west bound track just as the fast

seat behind the boiler he put on every
pound OF steam and opening his sand
box so as to get q firmer hold OF the rail

threw the truck and freight car and
other debris off the track on each side.
BurnC with wonderful fortitude held
fast to the lever and the moment he had
cleared the obstruction reversed his en-
gine and threw on the air brake.
As the train entered the wreck the
sides were torn out of three coaches and
the screams OF women rose high above
the screeching OF the steam.
Although the Gal up" was dis
mantled Burns emerged from the de-
bris alive, but covered with scars and
bruises
Men embraced tho brave engineer

ABOUT CONSUMPTION.
Dust Is One of the Commonest Causes of
Lung Mischief.

Lung Mischief.
1t is a curious fact that butchers are
almost exempt from consumption. II
we remember that their shops are airy
and open. that they are abundantly fed
on animal food, and that from early
morning they are rapidly driving about
in the open air, taking much exercise. and
living we'll, we shall be able to under
stand the influences which prevent the
access of chest affections These con
ditions of open-air exercise and high
feeding are in fact antagonistic to con-
sumption. 1t must not be supposed
that we are urging all threatened con-
sHnptryes TO becomi bttchers, b1rtHeiTe
mode OF life might be initiated with ad-
vantage. Dust is one Of the commonest
causes Of lung mischief In many cases
it is not the only exciting cause, but
often it is the chief and most deadly OF
several deleterious influences to which
workmen are exposed. The mortality
amongst those employed in many dusty
occupations is simply enormous. We
are told few men who enter certain
rooms in cotton factories ever live to
attain to the age OF thirty-eight. Out
OF twenty-seven men in a certain fax
factory, twenty-three had some form Of
chest disease. The noxious influences
OF varnishes, turpentine and drying oils
in developing consumption is we'll
known. Chest affections are by no
means infrequent among artisans who
use solder, such for instance as tinmen,
coppersmiths and goldsmiths Wood
turner's and those whose work necessi-
tates the use Of sand-paper, are usually
great sufferers. Many plans have been
devised for preventing the entrance Of
dust into the air-passages, and some are
very simple and worthy Of adoption.
The practice OF wearing a respirator, or
vail over the mouth and nostrils, with
the growth of the beard and mustache,
may be cited as examples. The obiec-
tion usually made to the respirator is
the expense. but one made of cork can
be obtained from the chemists for
shilling. The midday meal should
mover be taken in the workshop, and
the hands should be washed before
going out to dinner. These may seem
little matters. but only those who have
worlImen for patients know how con.
stantly they are neglected. In dusty
occupations the pores OF the skin get
blocked up by the dirt, and 1T then
ceases to perform its functions. Nor
mally it acts as direct purifier Of the
blood. being associated with the kid
neys and lungs in this Off e Family
