PLAY TO THE GALLERY.
THAT'S WHAT THE MAYOR SAYS
SOME COUNCILMEN DO.
A Meeting of the Police Commission in
Which tho Restaurant License
Matter Was Mildly
Handled

The restaurant license matter was
handled mildly by the police commits
sion at ito session yesterday. The dis
cussion was upon the motion OF Preei-
dent iced of the council, that tho pres
emit restaurant license ordinance be
amended so that the persons having
saloon licenses cannot get restaurant
liquor licenses.
After few remarks by Mayor Rowan,
in which he strongly intimated that
along toward election some o. the astute
eouncilmen wanted to "play to the gal
leriee," the motion was politely and
definitely referred back to the council
The mayor suggested that Brother iced
leave the question alone. IA to whether
Mr.. iced will do 30 or not remains to be
seen.
Nearly every week charges are
brought against some member of the
police force. This time Detective Haw-
ley was the lucky man. Mrs. s. K.
Adams would like to have Mr.. Hawley
fred bodily from the force because, she
alleges, he stte N pied to make her break
open door. This she thinks ia an out
rage and clearly beyond the duties of
police detective.
Humane Officer Wright got in timely
communication which charged that q
very deplorabls state of affairs exists
through influences exerted by the Oak
saloon at New High and Temple streets,
the Bakers home on First street, the
New Dsnison near Fourth and Main
and the corner saloon at Fourth and
Main streets. All these places, he al
leges, sell liquors to minors and young
girls. He alleges also that many young
girls frequent the Burbank theater and
from there are led astrsy by young
men.
The following were granted saloon
licenses: A. Lazarus, 653 Upper Main
street; J. H. F. Peck, PIT South Spring
street; III. Lehman, 1877 South Main
street; G. F. Buchanan. No. l Olympia
street; NJ. Ordoqui, 800 Also street.
Applications for saloon licenses from
L. Compton at 300 North Alameda
street and from J. Gresovich at 628
Eighth street were referred to the chief
of police.
T. Hayes was denied saloon license
at 707 East Fivst street because OF lsck of
frontage, a protest and the fact that
there are enough saloons on First street
already.
In the Kerkow saloon case the chief
reported that during most OF the month
OF July he had been doing only q res
taurant business aud was entitled to the
rebate asked for on his saloon license.
Council was recommended to allow the
rebate

TIE sh.inkage of population in the
New England states would be painful
spectacle to contemplate were IL not for
those colonies OF opulent New Workers
who are making summer homes in Ver-
mont and Western Massachusetts. That
ia all that saves that region from bank
ruptcy. The population of the state of
Vermont in 1890 was but 1856 souls more
than in 1880, although the larger towns,
such az Burlington, st. Adams and
Rutland, showed q material increase.
The falling-off was in the rural districts,
the unimproved acreage being increased,
during that period, from 1896, l27 to
1879, 703 acres. There were So, 522 farms
in 1880, as against 80, 1913 in 1890. And
that is not the end of it, either. Tho
New England farmers life is one end

pound OF bread ne eats Is wrung out OF
the very frowns of Nature. Once let

in one year from six acres of irrigated
land in Southern California az he could

WHEN three Democratic congressman
in a single day decline denomination
1t shows that there is feeling amongst
these gentlemen that the people are not
in love with the record OF the Fifty-third
congress. Most of them give as O reason
for their deoIination the iHadequacy OF
the salary. Probably $4,000 year is too
small q sum to compensate man for
spending the greater portion OF two
years in Washington, but it Is soms-
what singular that all the discoveries OF
the insufficiency OF the salary have been
made by Democrats. Mr.. Caminetti. OF
California, has been early in the field,
although it would be difficult to make
any exception to his official acts.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts ON the Kid

A GEAR FOR PRESIDENT.

In yesterdays kilograms from the At
lantic seaboard were unmistaksbls evi.
dences of presidential boom for Thos.
B. Reed, representative from Maine and
ex-speaker of the popular branch OF
our government. That such q selection
is not wholly undeserved. is evinced by
the fact that Reed has been for the past
seven years the most popular man in
the high tariff wing OF the Republican
party (Which is in itself high tariff

the present governor OF Ohio and author
of the late lamented high tariff measure

had lived together as man and wife. There
were three children
When the ceremony was performed the
wife told her husband she could support her
self and she didn't want to ive with him.
She left him in 1891 and lived with Jno.
Dixon, an employee of the P. R. R., at No.

the district as Mr.. and Mrs. Dixon. Testi-
