session and that body gets its work well
under way before the Christmas holidays
it would be decided innovation. Few
Congresses in recent years have begun
the session without this plan as part
of their program. and few have succeeded
in putting it into execution.

Some of the smelters In Omaha and

vice for recovering the minerals that
heretofore have passed away in smoke

known that the smoke from such plants

gold, silver and lead, but such is the
fact, and II has been the constant study
OF metnllurgists for years past TO con-
trive some practicable and economical
method OF condensing such material.
The new device consists OF a hort

posing surface for radiation and con-

A CITY LAW DOUBTED.
The City Ordinance Providing for
Mere Fine
FOR THE SALE OF LIQUOR

H InvRIid Says Judge II Zen in 3 De
cizIon This Morning bat He Rules
Otherwise on Account OF the SIX
prenAe COur.-This Lets Louie Char
owhas 60 Free.
Judge Hazen this morning gave it as
his opinion that the city ordinance in re-
gard TO selling liquor is invalid.
Two cases against Louis Charowhas,
the Greek, are docketed to come up to-
morrow in the district court. Louis at
torneys have fled motions to quash the
cases and Judge Hazen this morning
ruled on them.
Charowhas was arrested for selling
liquor Illegally aud lined 500 in police
court. He appealed the case and this WAS
the first one ruled on this morning by the
district judge
He said: II have here a motion to
quash because the city ordinance against
selling liquor is invalid. The supreme
court has ruled on this twice, once in the
case of the City VS.. Myers and again iii
that of the City VS.. Zufall and both times
it has found the ordinance to be valid.
81 am bound by the decision of the SUI
preme court and there is nothing left
for me to do but to override the motion.
II l could make my own decision, how
ever, l should say that the ordinance IS
undou btedly invalid, for there is pro-
vision in our law that no city or corpora.
ton can make an ordinance for the pun
ishment of liquor sellers which provides
lower fine than the one provided by
the state law. This Topeka has done.
Notwithstanding this the supreme court
has decided the ordinance. to be valid
and am bound by their decision"
The other case against Charowhas was
for keeping his place open on Sunday,
He was fined $25 in the police court for
this, and appealed it to the district court.
In tho charge filed there he is charged
with laboring on Sunday, causing his as
sistants. to labor on Sunday, and with
keeping his place open on Sunday.
Judge Hazen said that each of these is
against the city ordinance, but did not
think he could be charged with all OF
these for the same offense. He, there
fore, sustained the motion to quash the
case and let Louie go free of this charge.
