Trustee Cox then read an ordinance,
No. 320, entitled "An ordinance for pur-
poses of police regulation, prohibiting
places or things OF immoral or indecent
character, or dangerous to life and
health"
This ordinance, which was declared
read for the first time, and will doubt
less be passed next Monday, supersedes
ordinance 1876, under which the recent
arrests for selling beer have been made.
1t provides in substance that lit shall
hereafter be unlawful to carry on in this
city any saloon, gambling room or place
of indecent or immoral character,
slaughter house, powder house, or any
place dangerous to the public health or
safety.
Section 2 provides that regularly
licensed druggists shall be allowed to
sell liquors, and that any hotel, restau.
rant, or boarding house may serve wines
or malt liquors with and as part OF a
regular meal costing not lees than
20 cents, exclusive of the liquors, to
be sold and consumed between the

FIRE.
AT 6:15 this morning an alarm was
turned in from the engine house. and
the company responded, the fire proving
to be located in house on West Day
ton, only few feet from the engine
houses owned by the estate OF J. G..
Miller and occupied by Mrs. v. Krippey,
general delivery clerk at the postoffice.
The loss will be in the neighborhood of
$1,000, for although the fire was put out
before the house was consumed the
water damaged greatly what furniture
was not burned.
There was no insurance on the con-
tents, and SO far as learned, none on the
house.
ANOTHER BEER AND CRACKER CASE.
Another arrest has been made by
Marshal Buchanan, under ordinance
1856, this time William Worthen, pfo-
prietor of the Mercantile lunch, on South
Fair Oaks, drew the winning number.
The case will come up before City
RscoIuor y ". hOBelVef, tomorrow morn
ing, and will probably be by jury.
The police department is determined
to enforce the present ordinance, and in
80 doing will receive the hearty support
OF the community.
II the new ordinance which was read
for the first time in the council TODAY is
put in force the restaurant people will
have to keep very straight, for it will be
comparatively easy to secure convic-
tion under its provisions.
